Chapter 13: The Bandit Buster
"Eight Tooth Road!" Hearing the familiar sound of horses' hooves, Captain Kono habitually cursed, and today he seems to have become accustomed to swearing when he hears the sound of horses' hooves! After the scolding was over, as in the previous ones, the familiar cavalry reappeared!
As with every previous attack, it rushed through the wind outside the range, and there was no shadow after another volley of guns.
This time is different from the previous ones, and that is the purpose! The first few times were almost with the intention of harassing the imperial army, but this time it seems that there is an intention to cover the retreat of friendly troops. The infantry unit that was still fighting with the imperial army just now took advantage of the gap in the cavalry charge to quickly run out of the city for more than a hundred meters!
"Attack!" Captain Kono pointed his command knife forward. A small jamming tactic wants to disrupt the captain's established tactical thinking? You're not even close! Captain Kono pursed the corners of his lips in the direction of the cavalry in the distance.
Now that he has seen through the opponent's tricks, Captain Kono will certainly not let these enemies escape again. Catch up and destroy them! This is Captain Kono's order to the Japanese soldiers, and only by destroying this group of enemies can the haze in the captain's heart be washed away!
The devil soldiers are really desperate to fight, including those who are wounded, as long as they are not seriously injured such as missing two legs and blind two eyes, as long as they can still run a few steps with a gun, all of them participate in the battle!
Although the devil is very desperate and can be said to have done his best, the enemy on the opposite side is still fighting unhurriedly and retreating for a while. The valiant Imperial Army used all their strength, but they were unable to destroy their enemies.
This is not because the Japanese soldiers have poor combat ability, nor is it that the weapons are not advanced enough, the only reason for the current situation is that the number of elite Japanese soldiers is too small!
Hu Fei led his cavalry team to shoot continuously from a long distance, and this hit-and-run tactic caused great damage to the Japanese army. The soldiers of the Devil Kono Squadron who can still fight are now all less than a hundred! And his opponent was nearly four hundred infantrymen! Or 400 infantry fighting and retreating!
If these 400 enemies stayed and fought stubbornly, Captain Kono was confident that he would be able to defeat or even annihilate those 400 enemies with his less than 100 imperial troops! But his enemies are now retreating! If people don't fight with you, how can you eliminate them?
If you want to encircle and annihilate an enemy who is determined to retreat, you need at least three times as much strength and occupy favorable terrain to do so, and Captain Kono now has less than a hundred Japanese troops at hand!
Annihilation can't be done, and he is not happy to watch the opponent retreat step by step, so what should he do? Just when Captain Kono was in a dilemma and his donkey skills were exhausted, he suddenly received a telegram from Gu Zhaoxiang. The puppet police captain reported on the progress of his troops, and by the way, of course, the police brigade once defeated a cavalry unit of bandits!
Regarding Gu Zhaoxiang's telegram saying how many enemy troops he had annihilated and how much damage his troops had suffered, Captain Kono was not even interested in taking a second look. The lieutenant was only interested in the last item of the telegram, which was the elimination of the bandits' cavalry troops.
Regardless of whether this news is true or not, anyway, after seeing this news, Captain Kono had an idea in his heart: let Gu Zhaoxiang bring his police brigade over to participate in the battle and encircle and annihilate the enemy army! There are thousands of people in the police brigade, no matter how effective it is, there are enough people anyway!
The telegram was sent out, and Gu Zhaoxiang also received it. After reading the telegram, the pseudo-police captain did not dare to hesitate for a moment, and immediately led his policemen to the battlefield. Kono Taijun said on the telegram that he would let the police brigade cooperate in annihilating the enemy, where would he dare to delay? If the Japanese military plane is delayed, I won't even know how to die at that time!
Hu Fei led the cavalry troops around Feng Quan's infantry team, looking for an opportunity to go over and sneak attack the devils, and if he couldn't find a chance, he walked his horse nearby.
Of course, one of the biggest functions of the cavalry Hu Fei will definitely not forget, dividing the cavalry into squads and sending them around the battlefield to act as scouts. When the number of scout cavalry was close to half of this cavalry unit, no matter what happened to the Japanese puppet army on the battlefield, Hu Fei would be able to know the way at the first time.
The news that the detective cavalry brought back this time made Hu Fei feel good at once, and the pseudo-police force that had fought with him actually leaned over to the battlefield here! Scar 3 and Liu Mazi died in the hands of these pseudo-policemen, and the injuries on their bodies also benefited from this group of traitors!
The gentleman's revenge is not over for ten years, and the villain's revenge is all day long. His revenge can be avenged so quickly, isn't he a gentleman? Shake your head and let go of these messy thoughts.
Gently pulling the reins of the horse, Hu Fei filled the box cannon with bullets again, "Brothers, let's go, let's go play with that group of traitor policemen again!" After saying that, his legs clamped the horse's belly, and the war horse neighed and galloped wildly.
The cavalry behind them silently followed. Today's battle is different from the previous time when the beard went down the mountain to do the case, and at that time, the voice was louder than anyone in the battle. Now that you are shouting loudly, you have leaked your whereabouts, and you have brought in enemies who should not have come, aren't you asking for trouble?
Even if the cavalry were careful not to make a sound, the vibration caused by so many horses' hooves stepping on the ground was enough for others to spot them from afar. When the guns were firing in front of him, Hu Fei knew that he had been successfully discovered by the pseudo-police force!
This time I didn't come to fight! Hu Fei casually shot two shots behind him, and the reins of the war horse ran again. However, he didn't run far this time, and ran out of the city and waited for the pseudo-policeman behind him for two miles. When the enemy approached, he fired a few shots, and when the enemy returned fire, he led the team to run. Stop, stop and fight, all the way to get the enemy closer and closer to the destination.
"Drive!" When there was also gunfire on the opposite side, Hu Fei knew that he had arrived at the predetermined place! After firing two shots at the end, Hu Fei and his cavalry suddenly made a ninety-degree turn, then accelerated rapidly, and disappeared in a puff of smoke. Hang Gu Zhaoxiang and those pseudo-policemen there!
The cavalry is gone? Gu Zhaoxiang looked at the open space in front of him where there was not even a person, his face was full of surprise, and he defeated another Hu bandit cavalry force! Today is really an auspicious day for him, he has defeated several bandit troops for most of the day, there are cavalry and infantry, riding horses, walking underground, all kinds of beards, he Gu Captain is simply the nemesis of the beard!
"Sir Gu, there are people in our Dongzhuang who praise you for blessing the safety of the party, and I heard that someone is going to make a pennant for you before we come out."
I really want to come to something, there is a subordinate with eyes who has a comfortable life! As soon as Captain Gu thought that he was a Hu bandit nemesis, someone immediately planned to send him a pennant! Although this guy is his own adjutant, the adjutant can also represent the broad masses of the people, right?
"Wow, the people's wishes are not to be disgraced! Just write the four words "Hu Bandit Buster" on the pennant, don't do anything diligent and love the people! Captain Gu waved his hand nonchalantly.
"Smack! Bang Bang Bang! "Suddenly the gunshots rang out, and along with the gunshots there was a faint shout, and I couldn't hear what was being shouted, the enemy was coming!
