Chapter Twenty-Five: The Devil Is Hungry

Saeda Ichiro usually hears people say how his uncle dared to be like a ****, and how brave he was when he conquered Nanjing. Although Saeda Daisa is also full of respect for General Kanda, deep down, he does not want to live under the aura of his uncle all the time. Ichiro Saeda needs to establish his own exploits and let others know that he is not only the nephew of Kanda Masatane, but also a brave and good general!

Therefore, when Dazuo heard the report from the Toyota Shaozo in front that they had discovered the Chinese cavalry and had already picked up the fire and started the pursuit, Saeda Ichiro, like the Toyota Shaoza, immediately felt that the opportunity had come! Here's your chance to find and destroy this isolated Chinese army!

The large armies assembled in the Ninth Theater of Operations of China were all south of the Xinqiang River. The Sixth Division rushed to cross the Xinqiang River, and before it had passed, two armies were fighting over the right of passage through the river. On the north bank of the river, however, at this time, a Chinese army jumped up and down, and this army was not alone, what else could it be? Their companions are all on the other side of the river! With the proud record of the 45th Wing, Saeda has every reason to believe that his Wing can easily defeat any Chinese army below the military level!

And on the north bank of the New Wall River, it is impossible to have a single army of the Chinese army! All Chinese military-level units on this battlefield are clearly marked on the combat map of the Japanese army. His Saeda team, meritorious service, in one fell swoop!

Saeda Daisa, who was desperate to make a name for himself, ordered all the troops of the wing to speed up, and at the same time gave an order to Toyoda Shaosa: At all costs, the Chinese cavalry must not be allowed to escape! Even if it's pestering, you have to pester him!

Saeda didn't want the cavalry of the Chinese army to run away, and the cavalry of the Chinese army actually didn't want the Saeda wing to be too far away from them. After Kong Lao Er gathered the team, he counted the casualties, and waited quietly here to see the reaction of the devils.

No matter how fast the cavalry is attacking, no matter how fast it is, this is the battlefield, a battlefield with modern thermal weapons using rifle grenades, and if you want to be without any damage in a battle, you can only imagine it in your heart. There is a saying on the battlefield: guns don't have eyes! Whether you are a high-powered general or a new recruit, as long as you go to the battlefield, your life is handed over to God, and you must be ready to die at any time.

Fortunately, the cavalry relied on their fast speed and good riding skills after all, and the casualties were not large. There were less than ten people who were really killed, and twenty or thirty were injured, all of whom were slightly injured, which basically did not affect the riding and shooting of guns.

Recuperate, calm the mentality, put the bullets in the chamber, and let the war horse take a breath. The cavalry battalion commander sat up straight on his horse and carefully observed the movements of the devils with a telescope. After the cavalry battalion turned around, the devils were all lying on the ground, and they couldn't tell which was dead and which was alive. However, Battalion Commander Kong knew in his heart that these devils would definitely not die. When he shot just now, he saw that there were devils who crawled to the ground shooting at him, and he didn't believe that as soon as the soldiers walked by, those devils were all dead?

The cavalry battalion commander didn't wait too long, and a large army of devils came up from behind. The devils lying on the ground also stood up and joined the devil brigade. The devils did not plan to let go of the cavalry battalion, and Camp Commander Kong did not bother to remind the devils anymore, so these devils rushed up along both sides of the road.

These devils who came up later knew that there were Chinese cavalry in front of them, so they didn't walk stupidly with their heads up like the pathfinder team at the beginning. The current devils, although they are also trotting forward, have already set up their battle formation. The devils held their guns, covering each other, cautiously, still moving quickly under their feet, and from time to time they would shoot two forwards. Seeing that the devils are going to run fast and be vigilant, it's really hard for them.

Kong Lao Er looked at the way the devil ran away, the corners of his mouth twitched twice, and his legs clamped the horse's belly, "Rack!" He turned his horse's head and led his warriors away.

The devil is now completely relying on two legs, chasing the four legs of the war horse, in order to prevent the devils from giving up halfway, the soldiers of the cavalry battalion will shoot a few shots at the back every once in a while, encourage the devils, and show the way.

Our cavalry led the way on horseback, and the devils chased after them with two little short legs, and in this way, the two teams, one in front and one behind, went farther and farther away, and went further and further to the northeast. Hurrying on two feet, the physical exertion must be relatively large, and after walking for three hours, the devil's team finally stopped. An hour ago, the devils stopped once, and that time it was Battalion Commander Kong who sent a platoon over, shot the devils for a while, refreshed their spirits, and made the devils cheer up and chase for an hour, and the devils are tired again now?

The devils are not tired, they are hungry! From having breakfast in the morning to now, it's been afternoon! I haven't eaten for so long, and I haven't fought, so I've been lifting my spirits and trotting away. Summer has just passed, in the early autumn season, the temperature in northern Hunan during the day is still very high, such a hot day, running such a long way, how much physical exertion!

Just the physical exertion is large, the devils can endure it, and the weather is hot, they can also overcome it, but they know that the cavalry in front is luring the enemy, and they have to chase after it with their lives, and the devils can't accept it. Toyota Shaozo originally planned to catch up with those cavalry in one go, at the very least, to find those infantry behind the cavalry! But whenever his troops were about to stop to drink and catch their breath, those cavalrymen turned around and shot provocatively! After several times in a row, Toyota Shaozo can see that these Chinese cavalry also want the Japanese army to follow them!

Since the Chinese did not abandon them and had no intention of running away on their own, Shaozo would definitely not have to worry about chasing and losing these Chinese cavalry. Toyota Shaozo has very rich combat experience, and as soon as he summed it up slightly, he realized that the Chinese were trying to lead them in a certain direction! In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are phantoms! Toyoda Shaozo is convinced that with the strength of the 45th Wing, they are fearless! Since this is the case, wouldn't it be stupid to chase after such hard work without eating or drinking?

Mashiro Toyoda, who believed he was aware of the Chinese's intentions, reported to the Wing Commander, including the attack on his pathfinder team and the harassment of him by the Chinese cavalry along the way. Finally, Shaozo suggested that since the Chinese intended to bring him to the "ambush circle", why did they make the process of this pursuit so difficult? Shao Zuo suggested that the pursuit should be stopped and eaten on the spot.

Of course, Saeda also knows what the situation is, and Toyota Shaosa often reports to him along the way. Where the Chinese want him to go, there must be a vicious battle, and even so, then it is a good choice to eat well and have good strength when fighting.

"Okay, rest where you are, eat on the spot."

Dazuo's order was handed down layer by layer to the various brigades of the 45th Wing.
