Chapter 597: Strengthen the machine gun battery

"Retreat quickly, immediately withdraw to Mengxian, and immediately send a telegram to contact the division headquarters to report our situation here."

"Don't care about the situation ahead, evacuate immediately with supplies, this batch of heavy machine guns must not fall into the hands of the Chinese troops."

"Retreat, retreat immediately, the front is attacked by the tank force of China, and immediately withdraw to Meng County."

The Devil Soldier troops had begun to disorganize, and the baggage soldiers at the back did not yet know how to respond to the attack of the Chinese troops.

The fierce fighting continued, and the 2nd Artillery Battalion had begun to set up artillery positions, but the 12 mountain guns never fired.

The armored battalion, mechanized infantry battalion, and cavalry artillery battalion of the 6th Cavalry Regiment also began to be put into operation, but the troops of the cavalry battalion were in the hands of Sun Weiguo, which was the reserve in Sun Weiguo's hands.

Jingcheng County is a Japanese occupation area, and it is a lot of risk to fight the Japanese transport troops here, but this time the gains are huge.

Looking at the Japanese transport troops with no end in sight, Sun Weiguo knew that as long as the troops of the New Second Brigade ate the Japanese baggage troops and captured these materials, then the New Second Brigade would not have to worry about food and ammunition in a short period of time.

"Brigade commander, the reconnaissance battalion reported that no Japanese reinforcements have been found for the time being." Yin Jin, deputy director of the General Staff Office, came to Sun Weiguo and saluted and reported.

Hearing that there was still no trace of Japanese reinforcements, Ge Haifeng couldn't help but look at Sun Weiguo, he hoped that the cavalry battalion would be able to fight.

"Ge Haifeng, I'll give you half an hour, within half an hour, you can kill as many devil soldiers as you can, bullets and shells are at will, remember one thing, you must leave weapons and ammunition that can still fight, it's now eight o'clock, half an hour later, eight forty immediately assemble here."

Sun Weiguo looked at the situation at the scene, he hesitated slightly, and then he gave the order for the cavalry battalion to attack.

"Yes, Brigadier." Ge Haifeng received the order, he immediately said, he quickly ran back to his horse, and the saber was drawn by him.

The cavalry battalion units that had been hiding nearby received orders, and more than six hundred cavalry troops began to shout.

The horses began to gallop, the cavalrymen brandished their sabers, and their mouths screamed, like fierce tigers, and began to pounce on the Japanese troops.

There are many recruits in all units of the new second brigade, but the only exception is the cavalry battalion troops, and the cavalry battalion is all veterans, and in this regard, even the guard battalion cannot be compared.

Although Ge Haifeng is now the deputy head of the regiment, he still hasn't changed his habits, he holds the saber in his right hand, and he always rushes to the front.

The more than 600 cavalrymen did not take out their rifles, they all drew their sabers and rushed directly towards the devil soldiers.

The cavalry was like a tiger in a flock of sheep, and a heavy soldier began to have his head cut off by a saber.

The corpses of the devil soldiers on the ground began to increase, and the ground soil began to be covered with bright red blood.

"Bang Bang!" "Da Da Da!"

The cavalry battalion belonged to twelve Czech light machine guns, six Maxim heavy machine guns were constantly firing, and eighteen light and heavy machine guns were covering the movements of the cavalry.

Unlike in the past, this time the new Second Brigade was not expanded much, Sun Weiguo moved almost all of his family assets out, and all the captured light and heavy machine guns were equipped with the troops.

At present, the troops of the New Second Brigade are absolutely not weaker than the Japanese troops in terms of firepower, and even in terms of firepower at the battalion and company level, the units of the New Second Brigade have an advantage.

"The infantry artillery concentrates its firepower to hit the Japanese baggage soldiers, as long as more than ten devil soldiers gather together, they don't need to ask for instructions to directly fire shells."

"The machine guns hit the light and heavy machine guns of the Japanese army, and they were all aimed at me, and I was only allowed to hit people, and I was not allowed to break the light and heavy machine guns."

"Mortars hit Japanese vehicles, and as soon as there were trucks trying to flee, the mortars immediately began firing."

Su Fangming, the company commander of the cavalry battalion machine gun company, held a telescope, and he gave orders loudly.

The machine gun company to which the cavalry battalion belongs is a reinforced machine gun company, which has twelve light machine guns, six heavy machine guns, four infantry guns, four machine guns, and four mortars.

Such weapons can bring good cover to the cavalry.

Company commander Su Fangming was also from the old Red Army, and once served as a squad leader of a machine gun squad under Shen Wei.

The cavalry battalion began to operate, three cavalry battalions, and a machine gun company began to be put into operation.

The Japanese baggage soldiers began to fall to the ground one by one like wheat cut by a sickle.

Within ten minutes, the number of Japanese casualties began to exceed 100.

A Shaozuo captain was cut off by Ge Haifeng directly with a saber, and after the death of this Shaozuo captain, the Japanese baggage soldiers began to flee.

More than a dozen baggage soldiers began to leave the road and flee to both sides, and the cavalry battalion did not have time to pursue these fleeing baggage soldiers for the time being.

The slaughter continued, and an infantry squadron stationed in the county seat of Jingcheng County had received the news.

This infantry squadron belonged to the 114th Division, which was transferred to the North China Front in February by sending troops from Central China, and this 114th Division was also one of the culprits in the Nanjing Massacre.

When the captain squadron leader received that there was a battle in Jingcheng County, he immediately sent troops to conduct reconnaissance, and at the same time he immediately got in touch with the brigade headquarters stationed in the Jingcheng mining area.

After a while, the main force of the 3rd Brigade of the 114th Infantry Brigade of the 127th Brigade of the 56th Division of the Japanese Army began to assemble in the county seat of Jingcheng County.

Three infantry squadron leaders and a machine gun squadron leader stood in front of the captain of the Shaozo brigade, and they were waiting for the scout's report.

"There are even troops who dare to fight in the area we defend, and this time we must completely annihilate them." Captain Shaozuo said in a stern tone.

"Captain, there is a battle on the road from Jingcheng County to Meng County, and the Chinese troops have attacked our baggage troops, and the two sides are currently fighting."

As soon as Captain Shaozuo's words fell, the reconnaissance personnel who had been dispatched immediately returned to report.

"Set off immediately, we will quickly reinforce the past, and we must wipe out this force of China." Captain Shaozo said immediately.

"Captain, it is very likely that the attack on the transport force is Sun Weiguo's troops, they have more than 600 cavalry, and there are many heavy weapons, and there are currently more than 2,000 Sun Weiguo's troops fighting on the battlefield." The scout continued to report.

The four squadron leaders who were originally going to return to the unit couldn't help but stop, and their eyes all looked towards Captain Shaozuo.

These four squadron leaders heard the name Sun Weiguo, but they knew very well that Sun Weiguo was not easy to provoke.
