Chapter 394: Almost Hit the Scheme
After receiving the order of Kunomura Momoyo, the troops of the 7th Division of the puppet army quickly began to assemble, and more than 1,000 cavalry troops surrounded the reconnaissance company, the division commander with the rank of major general commanded the battle at the rear, and the three cavalry regiments began to charge fiercely under his command.
Under the leadership of Ge Haifeng, the combat effectiveness of the reconnaissance company is second only to the armored company among the company-level units of the first regiment in reserve, and this is because the armored company occupies the advantage of tanks and other equipment.
After Ge Haifeng found that the puppet cavalry was rushing towards him in three groups, Ge Haifeng immediately began to give combat orders.
The puppet army forces have an advantage, and Ge Haifeng knows that he must evacuate at this time.
But being chased and evacuated by the puppet cavalry is not something that Ge Haifeng can accept, in Ge Haifeng's opinion, even if his troops want to evacuate, it is to evacuate in a dignified manner, rather than being chased by a group of two devils and evacuated in embarrassment.
Three Maxim heavy machine guns were quickly erected, three Czech light machine guns were also erected, and the squad leaders armed with Thomson submachine guns were deployed at the forefront by Ge Haifeng, who brandished his saber and looked at the officers and men of the reconnaissance company.
"Brothers, although there are a lot of two devils, there is no need for us to be afraid, it is impossible for us to eat more than a thousand two devils in a reconnaissance company, but the two devils want to annihilate us, or they want us to flee in embarrassment, this is impossible, rush over with me, let these two devils see who is the real cavalry."
Ge Haifeng brandished his saber, the sharp saber flashed in the sun, his face showed a firm expression, and his eyes looked towards more than three hundred puppet cavalry, this puppet cavalry rushed from the front, and the other two cavalry regiments were deployed on both sides, and the puppet cavalry wanted to annihilate the reconnaissance company in one fell swoop.
The major general and division commander of the 7th Cavalry Division had already begun to stop advancing, and few of these officers who had defected to the Japanese as traitors were not afraid of death, but they were more desperate than anyone else.
Holding the binoculars and looking at the reconnaissance company, the puppet army division commander showed a disdainful expression on his face, he felt that this time even if his cavalry troops could not completely annihilate the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army, they could still defeat them, and he thought that his troops had a great advantage.
"Da Da Da!" The Makqin heavy machine gun took the lead in firing, and the three Makqin heavy machine guns launched strafing, and one bullet after another quickly fired towards the puppet cavalry.
Immediately afterwards, the Czech light machine guns also began to fire accurately, and six light and heavy machine guns organized a crossfire network from the flanks and fired at the puppet cavalry.
Ge Haifeng whipped the war horse, the war horse ran quickly, and more than a hundred cavalry followed behind Ge Haifeng and quickly rushed towards the puppet cavalry.
There was no fear on the faces of the fighters, even if they knew that the other party had an absolute advantage, but they were not afraid, they did not have any excitement, but their eyes showed fierce killing intent, which meant that these fighters were not easy to provoke.
The saber was swung by the warriors, and the horses were running quickly forward.
Six light and heavy machine guns continued to fire, and the puppet cavalry had already paid dozens of casualties.
The expression on the face of the puppet army division commander gradually changed, his brows furrowed tightly, and he didn't know what he should say for a while, seeing that the 21st Cavalry Regiment had already paid the price of dozens of casualties, the puppet army division commander couldn't help but gasp, he didn't expect that the other party would dare to set up the light and heavy machine guns he was carrying at this time to shoot.
He didn't expect that the other party would dare to launch a counter-charge against the 21st Cavalry Regiment.
"Quick, quickly contact the 22nd Cavalry Regiment and the 23rd Cavalry Regiment, so that they can quickly flank the cavalry units of the Eighth Route Army from both sides, and absolutely not let the 21st Cavalry Regiment and the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army fight alone."
The commander of the puppet army put down the binoculars, his brows furrowed tightly, and he hurriedly began to give orders.
Even if the 21st Cavalry Regiment still has more than 200 cavalry, the commander of the puppet army has a feeling in his heart that the 21st Cavalry Regiment will definitely not be the opponent of more than 100 cavalry of the Eighth Route Army.
After the two cavalry regiments received the order, they quickly began to rush towards the reconnaissance company, but their speed was still a step slower, and the reconnaissance company had already begun to engage the 21st regiment of the puppet cavalry that was charging head-on, and the two sides had already begun to charge together.
Ge Haifeng brandished a saber in his right hand, and with the help of the momentum of the war horse, Ge Haifeng's saber easily cut off the head of a puppet cavalryman.
Immediately afterwards, Ge Haifeng quickly withdrew his saber, and he stabbed the sharp tip of the knife into the heart of a puppet cavalryman.
The sound of metal collision continued to sound, and more and more puppet cavalry began to fall from their horses to the ground.
Ge Haifeng took the lead, he looked at the puppet army commander behind him, and saw the golden collar badge of the puppet army commander, Ge Haifeng held the saber tightly in his right hand, and he quickly urged the war horse to run towards the puppet army commander.
Six squad leaders armed with Thomson submachine guns hurriedly followed behind Ge Haifeng, for fear that Ge Haifeng would have an accident.
The company commander of the reconnaissance company quickly charged forward, and the soldiers fought under the command of their respective platoon commanders, and the sharp sabers and the puppet cavalry saber collided together, and people kept falling to the ground, and there were constantly painful wails.
At the same time, on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, the second battalion has chased to the south bank, looking at the Japanese troops who have crossed the river through the bridge, Wang Tieniu is the first to rush towards the bridge, he is a violent temper, his troops have dozens of soldiers killed and wounded in the county, Wang Tieniu wants to avenge these soldiers.
Fortunately, Fu Tao, the commander of the second battalion, hurried over, and Fu Tao immediately asked the guards to pull the impulsive Wang Tieniu.
Holding the binoculars and looking towards the opposite bank, Fu Tao had a careful eye, and he asked the troops to temporarily hide and stand by. Sun Weiguo's words have always lingered in Fu Tao's ears, and Fu Tao, who was promoted to lieutenant colonel and battalion commander, was very cautious, he knew that any move he made now would not only affect his own life, but also the lives of hundreds of officers and soldiers of the second battalion, which was what Sun Weiguo often said.
"Battalion commander, what are you still doing in a daze, if you don't cross the river to chase after you, the little devils will be gone, and it will be difficult for us to find them when the time comes."
Wang Tieniu came to Fu Tao, he looked at Fu Tao, and said in a complaining tone.
"There is something strange on the other side, you see that the soil in those places is obviously freshly turned, if the little devil did not set up a position on the other side, it would be strange. Let's wait and see what the situation is saying, not to mention that the regiment commander knows that we are chasing the Japanese troops, he will definitely make a quick decision. Tie Niu, the regiment commander has said many times that commanding troops to fight cannot be impulsive and rash, and now the lives of hundreds of officers and soldiers in the whole battalion are pinched by us. Fu Tao said earnestly.
Wang Tieniu held the binoculars and glanced at the opposite bank, he still had an unwilling expression on his face, he really wanted to rush over with the troops.
