Chapter 764: Attacking Huilong Town
The artillery and light and heavy machine guns of the cavalry battalion machine gun company focused on the left side of Huilong Town, and shells began to explode on the left side of Huilong Town one after another.
The explosion sounded, the ground was dusty, shrenchel flew everywhere, the shock wave began to spread, and craters appeared on the ground.
Guarding on the left side is Guo Dehui's puppet army, there are more than 600 of them, but when it comes to weapons and ammunition, they can't compare with Cheng Ximeng's puppet army.
The Japanese army distributed weapons and ammunition to Guo Dehui and Cheng Ximeng's troops equally, but Guo Dehui left some weapons and ammunition and sent them directly to the black market for sale.
Therefore, as the first company of Chen Zhongju's cavalry began to attack Huilong Town, the left position of Guo Dehui's puppet army naturally exposed the weak side of firepower.
The firing of the machine gun company lasted for ten minutes, and more than a dozen light and heavy machine guns of Guo Dehui's troops were all knocked out, and after these dozen light and heavy machine guns were knocked out, the second cavalry company, the third cavalry company, and more than 300 cavalry troops quickly began to break through to the position on the left side of Huilong Town.
At this time, the 20 Czech light machine guns of the machine gun company had already begun to advance to a position less than 500 meters away from the position of Huilong Town, and the 20 Czech light machine guns had also begun to be erected.
"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and beat me, beat me hard." The puppet barracks commander shouted, his right hand wielding the shell gun vigorously.
The puppet battalion commander's head had already emerged from the trench, and as his words fell, three bullets quickly hit the puppet battalion commander.
A light machine gun shooter had already pulled the trigger, and three bullets hit the head directly into the head of the puppet battalion commander, who was smashed on the spot.
The puppet battalion commander fell to the ground, and the red and white mixture in his head flowed out of the wound, and the puppet battalion commander was killed on the spot.
When the puppet soldiers saw their battalion commander killed, their faces changed, and they glanced at each other, and these people obviously had the intention of retreating.
More than 300 cavalrymen urged their horses to quickly approach the position, and the cavalrymen roared loudly on their horses, and their sabers shook in their hands.
More than a dozen puppet soldiers began to shoot with medium rifles, and a row of guns rang out, and three cavalrymen fell from their horses.
But twenty light machine guns quickly began to suppress, and one bullet after another fired at the puppet position.
The exposed puppet soldiers were quickly killed by bullets, and more than 300 cavalry were already less than 200 meters away from the position.
The cavalry charge was fast, and the light and heavy machine guns of the machine gun company covered the cavalry's advance behind.
The light and heavy machine gun fire points of the puppet army have long been destroyed by the machine gun company artillery, and they have no ability to counterattack in the face of the cavalry attack.
The two cavalry companies quickly advanced towards the position garrisoned by the puppet army, and one of the cavalry of the second cavalry company was already less than five meters away from the position.
A puppet soldier saw that the cavalryman was about to come to his position, he immediately picked up his rifle, but before he could shoot, the cavalry had already come to him, the cavalry brandished a saber, directly cut the throat of the puppet soldier, and the puppet soldier fell to the ground on the spot.
The cavalry had approached the position guarded by Guo Dehui's puppet officers and soldiers, and the horses quickly crossed the trenches, and the cavalrymen brandished their sabers and cut down a famous cavalryman to the ground.
The second company of cavalry, the third company of cavalry, and more than 300 cavalry quickly rushed into the position on the left side of Huilong Town, and the cavalry faced the puppet infantry and launched a massacre.
The sharp saber kept slashing towards the puppet army, and the puppet soldiers who had not had time to make any counterattack fell to the ground one after another.
When the cavalry cut down more than 100 puppet soldiers on the position, the rest of the puppet army did not dare to continue to resist, and they withdrew towards the town one after another.
Cheng Ximeng's puppet army, which was responsible for guarding the position on the right side of Huilong Town, saw the cavalry units of the Eighth Route Army breaking through from the flank, and they transferred the remaining heavy weapons one after another.
But when they wanted to open fire, a dozen guns from the machine gun company began to fire shells at the right position.
Shells fired at the right position without warning, and the shells exploded one after another, and the puppet troops were attacked by shells, and their attacks were thwarted.
At this time, the cavalry units of the 1st and 4th Cavalry Companies began to attack the position on the right side of Huilong Town under the cover of the artillery of the machine gun company.
The puppet army troops of Guo Dehui on the left side of the garrison have begun to withdraw towards the town, and the second cavalry company and the third cavalry company did not pursue the puppet army troops that were evacuated to the town, and the cavalry units of these two companies attacked directly from the flank.
"The Fifth Company of Cavalry Charges!" Ge Haifeng raised his binoculars to watch the battle, and when he saw four cavalry companies attacking the position on the right side of Huilong Town at the same time, he immediately drew his saber, he shouted loudly, and then Ge Haifeng rushed to the front.
Five cavalry companies of the cavalry battalion charged at the same time, and nearly eight hundred cavalry advanced directly towards Huilong Town.
The puppet soldiers have begun to disperse, these soldiers are still elite, but they lack the ability to adapt to positional warfare.
The cavalry battalion is one of the two sharp swords in Sun Weiguo's hands, the cavalry battalion training is the strictest, and the cavalry battalion has almost grown up in the war.
As one of the earliest branches of Sun Weiguo's army, even if the cavalry battalion loses many soldiers, they will still maintain sufficient combat effectiveness.
Ge Haifeng is a brave general who can stand alone, under his training and command, even if there are tanks and armored vehicles of the armored battalion, the cavalry is still an indispensable branch of the Sixth Army Division, and more than a thousand infantry want to fight against the cavalry battalion troops, which is wishful thinking, especially these puppet armies.
In the town of Huilong Town, in the courtyard of Cheng Ximeng.
Guo Dehui has already left here, he has returned to his home, and Cheng Ximeng is also waiting for the news of the victory at the front in his own home.
"Big boss, no, the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army rushed in, Guo Dehui fled with his troops, and they had already packed their family property in advance."
Just as Cheng Ximeng was waiting for the news of the victory at the front, a man ran in from outside in a panic and reported.
"What? Guo Dehui escaped, this bastard, he actually escaped. After hearing the news, Cheng Ximeng said in a panicked tone.
He picked up the phone without saying anything, and he immediately dialed a number.
"Wen Xuan, you immediately evacuate from the county seat of Linzhang County with your troops, you immediately rush to Huilong Town to pick me up, we will evacuate to Anyang County together, and the Eighth Route Army that entered Linzhang County is Sun Weiguo's troops, their troops are very strong in combat, I am afraid we will not be their opponents." After the phone was connected, Cheng Ximeng said anxiously.
