Chapter Seventy-One: The Unlucky Shaozo
Seeing that Yamashita Yoshio got on the armored car and ran away, Li Han just sent cavalry to pursue, the purpose was just to create some obstacles for the devil to retreat, he did not divide his troops to pursue the fleeing Yamashita Yoshio. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
First, the devils all run by car, and they all walk on two feet on their side, and they can't catch up if they want to. On the other hand, there is still a group of devils who are not far from the battlefield, and there are still a lot of them, and there are fewer people sent, but they are sending war records to the devils, there are more people, and the battle here is not over yet.
But it can't be so easy for the devil to retreat, otherwise, the battle here is not over yet, and the devil head of Yamashita Yoshio may converge with the artillery.
This kid suffered such a loss, and the troops suffered such heavy losses, there is no need to think that Yoshio Yamashita will definitely take revenge, those ten artillery pieces are not for dry food.
In the end, the glorious and great task of attacking the devils fell again to the cavalry company, and the whole unit was the most mobile, and when the situation was not good, they could pat their butts and leave at any time.
There are nearly 2,000 troops in our army surrounding the devils, and the number of devils left behind is less than 200, so basically there are four or five fighters around each devil, and there are more fighters from the anti-Japanese brigade rushing inside.
Although the devils have first-class bayonet skills, they basically have no chance to show their skills in this situation. Often, the devil stabbed him once, and immediately seven or eight more bayonets were inserted all over his body.
However, both officers and soldiers are deeply affected by militarism, and even if they are in a desperate situation, they will not surrender. Knowing that he was going to die, the devil soldiers in the desperate situation took their madness to the extreme.
Just as Yoshio Yamashita had expected, these devils shouted the slogan "His Majesty the Emperor is loaded" and rushed into the crowd to play self-destructive and self-mutilating attacks.
Some devils simply don't even want guns, they run into the crowd and pull grenades, even if they are shot several times, they have to pull the lead before they die, and they will die with the soldiers of our army next to them.
However, no matter how crazy the devils were, they couldn't stop our army that occupied the advantage of suppressive forces, the soldiers in front were sacrificed, and the soldiers in the back still rushed towards the corners occupied by the devils like a tide.
After rushing to the position, the soldiers shot or slashed the devils one by one to avenge the sacrifices of their comrades, and finally these stubborn devils were all wiped out.
And Yamashita Yoshio Shaozao's retreat was not calm on the road, although the blocking force he left behind successfully blocked most of the infantry of the Zhina army, but don't forget, Li Han still has a cavalry team in his hands.
The number of cavalry companies was small, but everyone rode tall horses, and they acted like a gust of wind, and the devil's blocking troops could only watch the cavalry float past them, but they were helpless.
Although Comrade Squadron Leader knew that he was not far from death, out of loyalty to the Japanese Empire, he still wanted to stop this Chinese army in his heart.
Moreover, the squadron leader felt that he had only gone to see Amaterasu before the Chinese soldiers, and he believed that His Excellency would soon avenge himself.
The commander of the cavalry company of the third squadron is no longer concurrently held by Wang Dazhu, after all, the third squadron now has more than 700 people.
Wang Dazhu's position is actually equivalent to a battalion commander of the national army, and the promotion of the position will inevitably mean an increase in rights and responsibilities, and he will no longer have a lot of time to pay attention to the cavalry company.
But the cavalry company is definitely the main force of the third squadron, the soldiers are all veterans, and they are old troops that they have led, and the cavalry always has a natural advantage over the infantry.
Based on the above reasons, Wang Dazhu took special care of the cavalry, and even reached the point of responding to requests.
The current commander of the cavalry company is Sun Dabiao, who has been working in the cavalry company since the day the cavalry company was established.
From squad leader to platoon commander and company deputy, he can be regarded as a veteran of a hundred battles, and now he has finally come out and become the boss of the cavalry company.
The cavalry company has fought many victorious battles and tough battles, and has killed a lot of devils, and has always been the main force in the anti-Japanese brigade, but these achievements have been achieved under the leadership of Captain Wang Da.
Now it is rare to have such a good opportunity, the captain personally assigns tasks to himself, and it is not good to perform at this time, let alone when.
Sun Dabiao attached great importance to this mission, so before leaving, he made careful arrangements for each platoon of the cavalry. After receiving the order, Sun Dabiao took the lead and rushed towards the devil's convoy.
Although Yoshio Yamashita had completed the mechanized equipment of the troops, the speed of military vehicles in that era was limited, and the roads were all dirt roads. How fast the car could be, so it was only a few steps before it was overtaken by the cavalry company.
As soon as the devil's convoy entered the range of the rifle, Sun Dabiao raised his gun and fired a shot at the devil's car, and the soldiers who followed him also raised their guns one after another, and the road suddenly burst into gunfire.
Besides, Yamashita Yoshio's side, he was full of confidence and ambition at the beginning, and he didn't take Li Han's enemy to heart at all, and the Chinese army has always been equivalent to meritorious service in his eyes.
Even before leaving, he and his brother held a special press conference to announce to the people of Rehe that the Japanese Imperial Army was the real leader of Rehe, and that whoever dared to provoke the military might of the Imperial Army would be brutally suppressed by the Imperial Army
"We must not let go of a single person, and when the convoy has crossed this small hill in front of me, I will immediately order the artillery unit to open fire!"
The thought that he might become a laughing stock in the imperial army made Yamashita Yoshio's heart twist. Before he could join his own troops, he couldn't bear it anymore.
At this time, Yamashita Yoshio's heart was full of flames of revenge, and his heart was constantly roaring: he must not discredit the invincible imperial army, and he must not bring shame to the noble Yamashita family.
Facts have proved that Li Han's previous guess was really accurate, and the embarrassed Yamashita Yoshio Shaozuo really did everything.
In order to retaliate against Li Han, he planned to shell two teams that were in a scuffle, without even thinking about the lives of his own soldiers.
Of course, Yamashita Yoshio also has his own theory about this, and from the moment those soldiers were left behind to stop the Chinese army, they were already a dead man.
Since sooner or later we are going to die, we may be able to inflict huge casualties on the Chinese army, so why not. Only by doing this can he truly comfort the spirits of these imperial warriors.
If this plan of Seiichi Yamashita is realized, then the anti-Japanese brigade will inevitably suffer even greater losses.
At this time, the devils who stayed behind to block the attack were almost dead, and the soldiers of the anti-Japanese brigade were cleaning up the battlefield.
Seeing that he had left the battlefield, Yoshio Yamashita had already asked the guards to make a cameo appearance as a herald to call the signal soldier.
Under normal circumstances, the communications corps usually follows the commander of the unit in order to convey the commander's combat orders at any time.
However, because the troops were ambushed by the Chinese army, the establishment was naturally disrupted, and the retreat was in a hurry, and it was already rare to be able to find a signal corps and a radio station, where would it be like so much.
At this time, the cavalry of the Chinese came over, and as soon as the guard got out of the car, he was shot in the head by a flying bullet.
This guard had followed him for several years, and just now he was desperately escorting him to the armored car. Yoshio Yamashita was still going to promote him to be the second lieutenant squad leader when he went back, anyway, the junior officers in the brigade were almost dead after this battle.
Unexpectedly, before he could say this idea, the guard was beaten to death by the Zhi man so quietly, and Yoshio Yamashita was really ashamed and angry, and he almost became angry.
Since he led the troops out this time, nothing has been able to make him happy, and now he wants to send a telegram to the artillery unit but the Chinese soldiers are stuck in the throat.
Not only that, the two military vehicles behind the convoy were punctured by the cunning Chinese soldiers with rifles, causing the body to shake violently, but fortunately, the driver was experienced and tried his best to control the balance of the body.
After hitting a few large trees on the side of the road, the military vehicle finally continued to move forward smoothly, but the speed of the vehicle dropped by a large margin.
After all, the tires were blown out, and only a few wheels were left to continue to spin, and they couldn't get up fast if they wanted to.
Anyway, the two cars couldn't go, so Yamashita Yoshio simply ordered that the soldiers on the two military vehicles get out of the car and block the enemy on the spot to buy time for themselves.
Of course, Yamashita Yoshio did not forget to appease these soldiers and tell them not to think too much. Going first is not to abandon them, but to better fight the enemy.
In the end, Yamashita Yoshio asked the soldiers to hold out until the end, and repeatedly emphasized that he would soon come with a large army to save them. However, what made him depressed was that the communications soldier coincidentally sat on the penultimate military vehicle.
This made Yamashita Yoshio's idea of wanting to bombard the large army of the Shina Army in advance completely failed, and Yamashita Yoshio Shaoza, who had no thoughts, left the battlefield with the remnants of the convoy without looking back.
The devils of the two military vehicles who were forced to stay, also more than 40 people, and were also equipped with four crooked light machine guns, they used local materials and two military vehicles as cover to confront the soldiers of the cavalry company.
Originally, Sun Dabiao's task was only to slow down the speed of Yamashita Yoshio Shaoza's convoy and buy time for the main force to annihilate the Japanese troops on the position. Unexpectedly, the captain of the devil brigade didn't even care about the life or death of his own people in order to escape.
I have to say that Yamashita Yoshio's approach successfully attracted Sun Dabiao's attention. Sun Dabiao had already regarded these dozens of devils as his first batch of combat exploits after he took charge of the cavalry company.
Sun Dabiao was also very cunning, and when he saw the devil mount the machine gun on the car, he knew that the casualties of the strong attack would be very large, so he divided the cavalry into three teams, and each team attacked in a different direction, so that the devil's machine gun could not be used centrally, and the threat to the cavalry was much weaker.
