Chapter 159: Cavalry Attack (Ask for Collection)
As the old Maozi regiment commander guessed, there was no longer a standing enemy behind the frontal battlefield. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The Liaodong Army counterattacked the troops, immediately split into two, and killed the attacking troops on his two flanks.
"What about heavy machine guns? Why don't they shoot yet, aren't they afraid of being court-martialed? Seeing that the battle situation was completely developing in the direction that was most unfavorable to him, the anger and anxiety in the heart of the regiment commander can be imagined. Facing the deputy head of the regiment, he scolded again.
At this time, the face of the deputy head of the regiment was also covered with despair.
At the same time, under the expression of despair, there is also a trace of helplessness.
Under the watchful eye of the regimental commander, he had to say a piece of news that made him feel hopeless.
"Heavy machine gun company...... Regiment commander, the heavy machine gun company has collapsed, and in order to survive, those machine gunners directly dropped the heavy machine gun battlefield and collapsed. ”
The loss of the heavy machine gun also means that the two remaining companies on the battlefield will no longer have a chance to turn defeat into victory.
The regiment commander was very aware of this truth, so in just a moment, the regiment commander made the decision to withdraw the troops.
Although he was helpless and desperate, the regiment commander still resolutely ordered: "Order the left and right flanks to attack the troops and retreat immediately......"
However, the scene that appeared in front of him was once again unexpected by the head of the regiment.
The regiment commander, who far underestimated the appetite of the Liaodong Army, witnessed with his own eyes that as soon as the flank attacking troops began to retreat, the Liaodong Army, which was defending its position, rushed out and launched a counterattack against the retreating troops under his command......
"Quick, immediately organize the troops, cover their retreat, and block the counterattack of the Liaodong Army......" The regiment commander, who must not let these two companies be wiped out again, ordered loudly.
Soon, two crippled infantry companies crossed past the regimental commander and rushed towards the battlefield.
Just when everyone's eyes on the battlefield were attracted by these two companies. The roar of shaking the mountains suddenly sounded behind Lao Maozi.
The cavalry battalion, hidden in the woods, charged.
Three hundred cavalry, led by more than forty veterans, were like a sharp sword out of the sheath, and quickly plunged into Lao Maozi's back.
In contrast to the sabers raised by the recruits, the sabers of more than forty veterans hung from their waists.
Because it is an old cavalryman, even if he is riding his horse and galloping, he will attack the enemy. They can also free their hands and control the war horse with only their legs and feet.
As for their freed hands, they were either holding loaded Madson light machine guns or rifles.
Because the cavalry came too suddenly, and the grove where the cavalry was hiding was too close to Lao Maozi's position.
By the time Lao Maozi finally recovered from the shock, the three hundred cavalry had already rushed to a position less than one hundred and fifty meters away from them.
"Cavalry...... There are still cavalry in the Liaodong Army......"
"Quick, shoot now...... Hold off the cavalry attack, and never let these cavalry come near us. ”
"What about the heavy machine gun company, order the heavy machine gun company to return to the reinforcement immediately and block the cavalry......"
When all kinds of exclamations began to sound in Lao Maozi's position, dozens of veterans from the cavalry battalion rushed to the front, already with nervousness and expectation, and quickly pulled the trigger of the weapon in their hand.
The six Maidelsen light machine guns at the head of the cavalry battalion spewed six scorching fire houses directly forward.
In the chaotic position of Lao Maozi, wherever the six machine gun houses went, the panicked old Maozi was knocked to the ground by the flying bullets before he could make any reaction.
Soon, six magazines for six machine guns were strafed.
And the cavalry battalion also took advantage of the confusion of Lao Maozi and successfully rushed to the 100-meter position.
Lao Maozi, who was killed and wounded by six machine guns and wounded a platoon, also reacted from the panic at this time.
Subconsciously picked up the rifle and pulled the trigger, trying to block the cavalry battalion with bullets.
However, the moment they fired the bullets, dozens of cavalry battalion veterans also fired bullets one after another.
Seven or eight old Maozi soldiers, with screams and panic before death, fell to the ground.
Of course, the cavalry battalion also lost seven or eight cavalry in Lao Maozi's round of gunfire.
However, the speed and formation of the cavalry charge were there after all.
The remaining soldiers of Lao Maozi hurriedly loaded their rifles and prepared to shoot again.
The cavalry battalion had already rushed to a position eighty meters away from them.
The loud sound produced by hundreds of war horses galloping wildly, like thunder, hit their hearts again and again, and intensified their fear and fear of cavalry......
"Bang bang bang bang ......" another burst of gunfire rang out on the battlefield.
In general, the closer the enemy, the higher the chance of a bullet hit.
However, the round of bullets fired by Lao Maozi this time did not even hit the soldiers of the five cavalry battalions.
There is no doubt that in the face of the cavalry battalion that is close at hand, Lao Maozi, who has not many troops, has begun to panic, and even his hands holding rifles to shoot have begun to tremble.
Otherwise, the aim of firing so many bullets at one time would never be so low.
"Bang bang ......" When a new round of chaotic gunfire rang out on the battlefield again, the cavalry battalion had already rushed to a position less than fifty meters away from Lao Maozi.
At this time, the entire cavalry battalion, whether recruits or veterans, all held their sabers high, ready to launch the last and deadliest charge against Lao Maozi......
Looking at the cavalry close at hand, listening to the deafening sound of horses' hooves, and feeling the trembling of the earth, Lao Maozi was completely frightened.
They didn't dare to imagine what they could leave behind after hundreds of war horses galloped away from them one after another?
A trampled and unformed corpse, or a pile of flesh, or a pile of corpse parts?
Thinking of this, there were still dozens of old hairy people left in the position, and their faces instantly turned pale.
"Ah...... The cavalry is coming...... I don't want to die......" A scream came out of the mouth of an old hairy man.
This old hairy man is like a lost dog, dropping his weapon and running for his life desperately.
Domino effect......
A soldier became a deserter out of fear, and the old man who was left in the position, as if he had found an example, dropped his weapons one after another and joined the rout.
However, no matter how fast they fled, they couldn't get faster than the speed of the war horses.
Soon, the cavalry battalion rushed behind them.
The saber raised high in the air quickly slashed down under the action of inertia.
In an instant, Lao Maozi's head full of fear was cut off.
Then, like a blood-spurting football, it flew several meters before rolling to the ground.
Of course, these are all old hairs who are too unlucky, and they died in different places, and they didn't end up with a whole corpse.
