Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Cavalry Lures the Enemy

The 500th Division was overtaken by the Ushijima detachment. It's just that the process of being caught up is a bit weird, not so much that the devils of the 23rd Wing caught up with the 500 divisions, but that the 500 divisions led the devils over.

Originally, after crossing the Miluo River, the Niudao detachment was going to advance south, and their target was Changsha, the capital of Hunan Province. The devils didn't plan to turn around, but they were lured to change the direction of the march.

Although the 23rd Wing was accidentally reduced by a brigade, Okamoto Zhenchen was still generous and did not intend to investigate deeply. It's just that the tree wants to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop, Okamoto Osamoto doesn't want to cause trouble, but trouble just finds his head.

When I crossed the Xinqiang River, I met the 52nd Army, which wanted to fight with them, and when I crossed the Miluo River, I met the 70th Army, which left no room for doing things. Finally breaking through the barriers, crossing the Miluo River, stumbling all the way south, and seeing that it was about to kill Changsha, the garrison of China's Ninth Theater, the 23rd Wing was filled with a kind of joy before victory from top to bottom.

Although the roads here are not easy to walk, whether it is the main road or the small road has been completely destroyed, whether it is the riflemen carrying rifles and marching in line, or the artillerymen shouting trumpets and struggling to pull the cannon wheels out of the mud, all have smiles on their faces, and even some of them have developed artistic cells, and they also hum the tune of their hometown.

Just when the devils of the 23rd Wing were in the right mood, the troublemakers suddenly fell from the sky! These people just don't seem to be in a better mood to see the imperial army!

Ping-pong, a fierce burst of gunfire, mixed with the explosion of grenades, came from the front of the line. Immediately afterwards, a soldier came to report: the vanguard squadron of the wing was attacked by a small group of Chinese cavalry, which had caused more than 30 casualties among the imperial soldiers, and now those cavalry were retreating!

"Yaga!" This time, even if Okamoto Zhenchen Dazuo is well-cultivated, he can't help but be furious! "The advance guard squadron was ordered to pursue at once, and the wing accelerated forward. The Kono Cavalry Brigade went to the front to participate in the pursuit, and it was necessary to catch up with the Chinese cavalry unit! "If you kill someone, you want to run? There are no doors! Okamoto Osa angrily gave the order to pursue, and the 23rd Wing began to deviate from its original intention of advancing towards the Laodao River.

Not to mention Okamoto Daisa, even the captain of the Ushijima detachment didn't think there was anything wrong with Okamoto's decision. The dignified 23rd Wing was beaten to the door, and if they didn't fight back, they wouldn't be worthy of being the main infantry wing of the 6th Division!

Therefore, when he heard of the decision of the 23rd Wing, Ushijima only ordered his brigade headquarters, the troops directly under the brigade and regiment, and the engineer brigade and field artillery brigade assigned to him by the division and regiment to speed up the march. As for the two cavalry brigades assigned to him by the division commander, one of them had already gone to the front and was with the Okamoto wing, and the other was acting as a scout unit, searching for enemy tracks for the detachment.

There is no doubt that the speed of marching on the road like a rice field, both men and horses, is much lower than usual. The speed of the cavalry was greatly affected, but the commander of the cavalry battalion was still elated, needless to say, there was only a cavalry battalion of five hundred divisions. Battalion Commander Kong has received a combat mission again today, and the cavalry battalion is going to lure the enemy!

The cavalry battalion, which had experience in doing this work, rushed over on horseback, shot a gun and threw grenades, then turned the horse's head and left. It was only because of the terrible road conditions here that Battalion Commander Kong had to regretfully give up the idea of leading the cavalry battalion and fighting a few more big rounds.

Shoot! Bombing! Kong Xuan personally led a company of cavalry, coldly rushed out of the woods, and fought more than 100 meters away from the devil, directly knocking down the devil dozens of times, and then turned the horse's head and returned to the woods. The road had been destroyed, and now it was the kind of rugged path in the woods, barely walkable.

The devil behind was chasing after him with a deep foot and a shallow foot. In order to prevent the devil from getting lost, the soldiers of the cavalry battalion ran for a while, and shot a few shots in the back, kindly pointing the devil at the point. It's a really interesting way of playing. It's just that the good times didn't last long, and there wasn't much effort, and hundreds of war horses were killed at once, and the devil cavalry came up!

Now the soldiers of the cavalry battalion did not dare to rub their heads behind. I'm afraid it's not like that, it's just that their task is to lure the enemy, to lure the devils to the arranged positions, and to fight with the devil cavalry here, what's the matter?

So, the two cavalry troops, one in front of the other, entered the woods, as for whether the devil infantry in the back can keep up, it is not something that Commander Kong can guarantee, I think the devil's infantry will not even be able to find their own cavalry, right?

Gao Quan stood on a small high ground, looking at the galloping cavalry battalion and the devil cavalry following them from the telescope, his eyes shining. The commander of the artillery battalion next to him looked at it, there was a door! It seems that the division is planning to use artillery! Battalion Commander Fan carefully considered that if he fired the cannon now, his artillery dodged his own cavalry in front of him, and hit the hit rate of the devil in the back.

"Tsk, tsk." Gao Quan looked at it, and began to mumble in his mouth, "Look, the devil's Oriental Horse is good!" Look at the fur on that body is shining, tall and long-legged, when would it be better if our cavalry battalion was equipped with Oriental horses? ”

Hearing Shizuo talking to himself, Camp Commander Fan, who was a few steps away, was first surprised, and then extremely disappointed. I thought that he wanted his artillery to go into battle first, but how did he know that the division seat was a horse that took a fancy to the devil!

Out of the woods, looking at the flat road ahead, the cavalry battalion began to accelerate, and the devils behind began to accelerate almost at the same time. The two cavalry units, one in front and one in the rear, rushed over quickly, as if they were connected together.

"Hit!" Fierce gunfire suddenly rang out!

The devil cavalry was rushing forward, and countless bullets suddenly shot out from the woods on both sides of the road and behind the rocks!

With the sound of gunfire, the devil cavalry running in front fell off the horse with his head, and the Oriental war horse under his crotch also had a weak front hoof, and the horse's head stretched forward and fell out with a roll. The cavalry that followed behind, some of whom could not close their feet, trodden their horse's hooves on their companions in front, and were thrown high.

The cavalry behind pulled the reins of their horses, twisted their horses' heads to the side, and walked past their hapless companions in front. There was also a certain cavalryman who was very good at riding, with the reins and his legs clamped between the belly of the horse, and the man and horse were one, and the war horse rose to his feet and leaped past the people and horses who were rolling in front of him!

Except for a few devils who were not good at riding and had slow brain reactions, they crashed straight into their companions who were rolling on the ground in front of them, and then lay down on the ground with his companions to rest, most of the devil cavalry still had good riding skills. These devils were not too affected by the fallen companions in front of them, and worked together with their horses to bypass these unlucky fellows and continue to pursue.

It rained down on both sides of the road.
