Chapter 200 White Mountain and Black Water True Man
Cavalry duels have always been counted on a turn-by-turn basis, with each assault counted as a turn, and after a turn, the field was automatically swapped. The result of the first round was that the cavalry of the two vanguard battalions were cut off their horses, and the cavalry of the Ben cavalry fell by four men. The Oriental horse was already at the end of its strong crossbow, and no matter how hard the cavalry kicked the horse's belly, it could not run fast, and the Mongolian horse, which had the advantage of endurance, ran and raised the impact power of the soldier to the limit. More than half of the combat effectiveness of the cavalry is reflected in the impact of the war horse, and now the Mongolian horse has the advantage.
The four fallen cavalrymen were trampled by their horses, and those who stepped on their heads died on the spot, trampling their bellies, and those whose internal organs flowed to the ground rolled on the ground in agony and wailing. There were many cavalrymen in the vanguard battalion, and the two who were cut off their horses were rescued by robes, but they were only slightly injured.
Of the thirteen cavalrymen in the vanguard battalion who participated in the battle, two and eleven were wounded, while only four were left in the cavalry. The four men were in front of the vanguard camp watching the battle, but they didn't even look back. They instinctively believed that these people would not shoot, because it would be an insult to the robe who was fighting. In fact, none of the soldiers of the vanguard battalion did shoot, but instead lowered the muzzle of their guns to the ground as a sign of respect for both sides of the fight.
Since the era of cold weapons, cavalry is a noble branch of the army, which can only attack and cannot be used for defense, just like the saber in their hands, sharp and hard, but fragile and easy to break, it is their creed to rather bend than bend, honor is always higher than life, and even higher than victory and defeat itself.
The two sides took a few deep breaths and adjusted slightly, and at the beginning of the second round, the captain of the squad roared and rushed towards the cavalry on the opposite side, and the vanguard battalion no longer advanced with broken steps, and directly knocked the horse's belly with a spur, which was a state of charging at the beginning. The two small units collided again, and with the sound of sabers striking and the muffled sound of metal cutting into the flesh, three of the remaining four cavalry were cut down, but there was also a cavalry squad leader of the vanguard battalion who was slashed on the left shoulder blade by the captain of the brigade. The cavalry squad leader roared angrily and swung his sword to fight back, and the arm of the squad leader was cut off by a sharp blade. Shanghai Guanghua Company's technical advantages in special alloy smelting have been fully demonstrated. The sabers of the vanguard battalion did not even have a gap, while the sabers of the cavalry were mostly broken at the moment of impact.
At the end of the second round, the pioneer battalion had one more wounded, and the squad leader was left in the cavalry. His right arm was cut off at the shoulder, the wound was bleeding profusely, and the panting white horse was stained red with blood. His face was pale and frightened, his body trembled involuntarily, and he didn't know where the saber had fallen. The squad leader glanced intently at the east on his horse, bowed deeply on his horse, and then let out a hoarse roar, and once again urged his horse to rush towards the cavalry of the vanguard battalion, who were waiting for him. It's like a moth, knowing that it is death but throwing itself into the flames without hesitation.
With only one arm and no weapons, the consequences of the attack were obvious, he was plunged into the chest with two sabers at the same time, and fell backwards to the black earth.
One of the horsemen leaned down to cut off his head, when he suddenly found that he had a shiny saber on his shoulder, and when he looked back, it was the wounded cavalry squad leader who had put the knife on his shoulder.
"That's a man, since he's dead, don't insult him again!" The squad leader shook his head lightly.
Zhang Shuyang was very dissatisfied with their waste of time, if it weren't for the fact that this was tradition, he would have ordered military law to be engaged in a matter of time, and when he saw that the reconnaissance cavalry had been dealt with, he immediately shouted: "Pioneer battalion, listen to my orders, the whole battalion will rush forward!" ”
Except for the two soldiers who were seriously injured and could not move, the others immediately whipped their horses and followed Zhang Shuyang and continued to gallop forward.
Just after running far, Zhang Shuyang slowed down, raised his hand to signal to stop advancing, and the cavalry tightened the reins of their horses, slowed down slowly, and then stopped. Zhang Shuyang raised the eight-fold Zeiss telescope hanging around his neck, and in the distance, the dense soldiers of Yuben, wearing khaki military uniforms, were trotting in his direction.
From the telescope, it is very easy to see that he is lined up in four columns, and judging from the length of the line, it should be close to a thousand people.
"Rush at full speed, you can't give them a chance to line up!" Zhang Shuyang shouted loudly and rushed over first.
Keeping his mission in mind, he entangled the army before they entered the valley, preferably with a cut that would allow the main force to pass.
Less than a hundred miles ahead, the city of Fengtian was being sacked by the Yue army, and the compatriots were being slaughtered and ravaged by these two-legged beasts, and the advance army was the only one who could save them!
There are 300,000 ordinary people in Fengtian City, and the Jianghuai army has been taught that the army is the iron fist of the people, and it is the only duty of the army to defend the people from foreign enemies and bandits. This education never stopped, melted into the blood of almost every soldier.
Ten civilians might have been killed if the advance army arrived a minute late, and the task of the forward battalion was not to allow the army into the mountains under any circumstances, and if it could not be done, the two sides would become entangled with each other on the narrow and rugged mountain roads, and the cavalry's advantage in speed and mobility would be lost, and the people of Mukden would suffer even more.
In order to accomplish this task, even if the pioneer battalion is completely wiped out, it will not hesitate!
"The whole battalion assaults, before I line up, crush them!" Zhang Shuyang drew his saber and shouted and rushed towards the Kawamoto brigade.
??? Dividing line ???
In the Mukden Police Station, more than 100 policemen in black uniforms crowded around a man who looked like a black tower.
"Third Brother Xiong, what should we do?" A policeman asked anxiously.
The half-black tower-like man said angrily: "What should I do?" Fight for the little devil, kill one is enough, kill two to earn one! ”
It was already bright in Fengtian City, but there were no roosters crowing and sporadic gunshots outside. It is said that the sneak attack on Mukden by this soldier was 11 o'clock at midnight on the 18th day of the ninth lunar month, and now it is 7:30 on the 19th day of the ninth lunar month, and eight and a half hours have passed. The original sound of gunshots like popping beans has gradually thinned out. It seems that he has already succeeded, and from the roof of the police station, you can see the Fengtian Governor's Mansion, and the five-color flag on it has been replaced by the plaster flag of Yuben.
Xiong Dongbei, 25 years old, a native of Harbin, a patrol chief of the Fengtian Police Department, is righteous and loves to make friends, so his popularity and prestige in the police station are good.
"Third Brother Xiong, how are we going to fight? The wall of the police station is not high, we only have broken guns, not even door guns, and the patrol battalions of the fifteen battalions of the north and south battalions can't beat me, so we haven't given it for nothing? A policeman said worriedly.
"If you can't beat it, you won't fight? Seeing Xiao Yueben scourge our wives and daughters? Damn, are you still a gentleman? ”
"Xiong Laosan, then how do you say to fight?"
Xiong Dongbei frowned and said: "The advance army is in Xinmin Mansion, I estimate that they will definitely come to save Fengtian, they are all heroes!" From Mongolia to Manchuria, they won't look at Xiao Ben Sawild! As long as we insist on resisting and let Xiao Yue not stop, he will not have time to build city fortifications! Let's put on the clothes of the common people, break it into pieces, a class of thirty or twenty people, and hide when we see a large army, if there are fewer people, we will fuck a pestle! ”
"What the third brother said makes sense, if there are fewer people, the target is small, let's shoot cold guns everywhere, and the Oriental radish head can't figure out how many of us are, as long as there are still gunshots, they can't stop!" A young policeman excitedly.
"The third child is right, we can cats during the day, anyway, we are all familiar with the horns of Fengtian City, where can't we hide from ten or eight people? At night, touch their night mules! A meaty-faced policeman smirked. He is a bandit who has been recruited, and he always speaks with the black words of bandits.
Xiong Dongbei nodded and said: "The wild boar is right, I estimate that there are not many people who touch Xiao Yuben, otherwise why would they not hit our police station after fighting all night?" That's it, the wild boar will lead a team, I will lead a team, the pillar will lead a team, the big face will lead a team, let's go our separate ways and fight separately! ”
"What if the advance army doesn't come to save Mukden?"
"If you don't come, if you don't come, we'll die! I can't say that we don't have a man with eggs in Manchuria! Xiong Dongbei gritted his teeth.
A middle-aged man sitting in the corner of the room interjected: "Count me in, I'm also the inspector, can I lead a team?" ”
Xiong Dongbei hesitated for a moment: "You? ”
The middle-aged man took the case and said, "What's wrong? Don't you look down on people? Because I am a banner man, you don't believe me? This Manchuria is the land of the ancestors of the banner people, and you can't let Xiao Yue occupy it! The Han and the Manchus fought, it was the brothers who split up and robbed the little property left by Lao Tzu Niang, broke their heads and bandaged themselves, don't be embarrassed if anyone fucking suffers! Han and Manchu, broken arm is still connected tendons, how to say that it is all the Chinese's own business! ”
Xiong Dongbei punched him in the chest and said: "Good job, it's a gentleman!" Second Master Jin, you also lead a team, the little one we want to stir up can't live in peace, don't think that the gentlemen in the Northeast are the same as those bastards in the patrol camp, they are all squatting and peeing! ”
More than 100 policemen distributed guns, changed the clothes of the common people, and quietly drilled into all corners of Fengtian City, and after a while, gunshots rang out everywhere. The soldiers who entered Fengtian City were like flies when they lost their heads, but these policemen were all natives, patrolling the streets every day, and they were extremely familiar with every corner, and they would not go the wrong way with their eyes closed. Trying to catch them is even more difficult than looking for a needle in a haystack.
Although the gunfire was not dense and did not kill a few of the soldiers, the gunfire lifted the mood of the people of Fengtian and gave them hope.
Fengtian has not yet fallen, and there are still men fighting between the white mountains and black waters??? Even if only one is fighting, the army will not really occupy the most prosperous city in the Northeast!
