Chapter 196: Xishan Military Horse Farm

North of Jining City, Xishan Military Horse Farm.

The owner of the Xishan Military Horse Farm is named Takeshi Furuya, and he is a native of Benronin.

It has been more than two months since the opening of the Xishan Military Horse Farm, and three batches of more than 400 high-quality horses have been imported from Mongolia, the first batch of about 80 horses has been trained, and they will be delivered to the army in a few days, and the remaining more than 300 horses are being trained.

Let's just say that the more than 240 war horses in Liu Fengsheng's cavalry battalion have not been trained at all now!

Ordinary mounts you can ride on, as long as you shout "drive", it will go forward, and then shout "hoo", it will stop, but the military horse is not good, the military horse should also be this German surname, when you charge quickly on the battlefield, if there is an old farmer leading a donkey to walk by, if the old farmer shouts "huh", it will be a bad thing.

Therefore, military horses must be able to understand some relatively complex tactical orders.

For example, "lying down", "standing up", "advancing", "charging", "stopping advancing", etc., if the war horse has mastered these relatively complex tactical orders, then as long as the commander gives an order, all the war horses can respond synchronously with the soldiers, so that the tactical movements of the entire cavalry team can be uniform, in order to form combat effectiveness, otherwise it is.

In addition, in addition to domesticating military horses, the Xishan Military Horse Farm also raised dozens of cattle and more than 100 cold sheep.

This name Guya Meng said that Ben Langren is quite business-minded, knowing that Shandong people love to eat soy sauce beef and cold mutton, so in addition to domesticating military horses, he did a little side business, for the sake of safety, Guwu Mengtong hired seven devil soldiers to be stationed in the Xishan Military Horse Farm, in addition to a platoon of puppet troops stationed in the horse farm.

At this time, Takeshi Furuya was having a banquet in the horse farm for Second Lieutenant Ogasawara, who was ordered to extract military horses, and he brought a military squad to escort the first batch of more than 80 war horses to Jinan early tomorrow morning, and it is said that these military horses will be used to supplement the cavalry brigade of the 7th Brigade Mixed with Reading Power.

…………

Outside the military horse field.

Peng Mingzhi had already approached within a kilometer with more than 500 veterans of the 1st Brigade.

Liu Fengsheng's cavalry battalion was also dragged by Peng Mingzhisheng, Liu Fengsheng was originally unhappy, but Peng Mingzhi moved out of the identity of the commander of the 685th Regiment of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army and gave an order, Liu Fengsheng could only carry it out, but there was nothing to do with the cavalry battalion in the sneak attack on the horse farm, and the task of the cavalry battalion was to block the devil reinforcements in the direction of Jining.

Although the moonlight was very bright, there was knee-deep grass growing around the racecourse, so the sentries around the racecourse did not find that the danger was approaching, and as for the seven devil soldiers stationed in the racecourse, they were drinking and partying with the army brought by Captain Ogasawara, and the patrol and vigilance were none of their business, it was the work of the Imperial Army.

Li Tianyang, the platoon commander of the scout, soon came back and said to Peng Mingzhi: "Regiment commander, the situation is not right!" ”

Peng Mingzhi inserted the clean noodle box into the holster and asked urgently, "What's the specific situation?" ”

Li Tianyang gasped and said, "I took a rough look just now, there are far more than seven devils in the racecourse, at least forty people!" There are two ring barricades, there is a pillbox on the inside of the gate, there are at least four machine guns, plus a platoon of puppet troops, if you attack head-on, I am afraid that the casualties will be very large, and you may not be able to take it in a short time. ”

"Damn, why did the devil suddenly tighten his guard?" Peng Mingzhi said rather depressedly, "Does the little devil know that Lao Tzu is coming to get their military horses tonight?" ”

Li Tianyang said in a deep voice: "Commander, to fight or not to fight?" ”

"Of course you have to fight!" Peng Mingzhi said without hesitation, "There is no turning back when the bow is opened, since Lao Tzu is here, how can there be any reason to return empty-handed?" In this way, you immediately go and inform [***] Battalion Commander Liu, if the little devils in Jining City come out for reinforcements, let him hold them for at least two hours no matter what! ”

"Yes!" Li Tianyang agreed and took the order.

Peng Mingzhi took out the clean face box and waved it forward, and the more than 500 veterans of the 1st Brigade immediately took advantage of the cover of the grass and quietly touched the Xishan Military Horse Farm thousands of kilometers away, with the bright moonlight, Peng Mingzhi faintly saw the outline of the stable, and then thought of the hundreds of war horses raised inside, Peng Mingzhi even drooled.

Eight hundred meters, six hundred meters, three hundred meters, the Eighth Route Army gradually approached the military horse farm.

It happened that there was a puppet army who had a stomach upset, squatting in the grass to diarrhea, and overheard a cracking sound behind him, and when he looked back quickly, he saw a large group of black shadows coming out of the grass not far away, and the puppet army was taken aback, and immediately lifted his pants and ran, shouting while running: "Bandits, there are bandits......"

Immediately, only a gunshot was heard from the horn, and the puppet army fell in response.

Fifty meters away, Peng Mingzhi blew the smoke from the muzzle of the gun and scolded: "Bad luck." ”

As soon as the gunshots rang out, the devils were alert, and there was no need for the Eighth Route Army to hide anymore, and at that moment more than 500 veterans jumped up from the grass and killed the military horse farm with bayonets.

…………

Jining, eastern suburbs.

The bayonet battalion and artillery battalion directly under the Baoshan Brigade had already moved outside the city half an hour earlier.

Yue Weihan had already agreed with Liu Tiezhu that at 2 o'clock tomorrow morning, the bayonet battalion and the artillery battalion would jointly attack the east gate, and the special operations brigade would take the opportunity to occupy the arsenal inside the east gate.

Just after ten o'clock in the evening, fierce gunfire suddenly rang out in the northern suburbs of Jining.

Li Yulong's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said to Yue Weihan: "Luzao, what's the matter?" ”

"It's broken." Liu Yi said angrily, "The devil has a defense, and it will be difficult to take the arsenal again." ”

Yue Weihan also looked awe-inspiring, because the cavalry battalion did not have a radio, so it could not report to the left-behind headquarters in time, Yue Weihan naturally didn't know that Peng Mingzhi had already attacked the Xishan Military Horse Farm with men and horses, and then Yue Weihan turned back to Chu Zhongtian and said: "You go to reconnoiter right away and see what is going on?" ”

"Yes." Chu Zhongtian agreed and took the order.

…………

In Jining City, the front command post of the Second Army stationed in Shandong.

Major General Suzuki is in a good mood now, more than a dozen county towns have been recaptured, and dozens of rebel forces in the Lunan area have also been defeated by the Imperial Army, the only thing that makes Major General Suzuki regret is that when the 2nd Motor Infantry Brigade and the 116th Infantry Wing arrived in Zaozhuang, the Baoshan Brigade had already run away.

However, Major General Suzuki has already mastered the exact whereabouts of the Baoshan Brigade, which is in the Baoqinggu Mountains!

Just wait for tomorrow dawn, the 2nd Motorized Infantry Brigade, the 116th Infantry Wing, and the 2nd Infantry Brigade of the 6th Brigade will launch a large-scale sweep in the Baoqinggu Mountains, which will not only annihilate the Baoshan Brigade, but also easily smash the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army operating in the Baoqinggu Mountains.

Seeing that it was not early, Major General Suzuki was about to go to the comfort station to find a few North Korean comfort women to relax and relax, but suddenly fierce gunfire rang out outside the city.

"What's going on?" Major General Suzuki immediately asked, "Where to shoot?" ”

There was a staff officer next to him, who suddenly bowed his head and said, "General, it seems to be the Xishan Military Horse Farm." ”

As soon as the voice fell, the phone in the headquarters rang suddenly, Major General Suzuki grabbed the microphone, and the voice of his old friend Furuya was immediately heard in the microphone: "Your Excellency Suzuki, the military horse farm was raided by the Eighth Route Army of China, and the situation is very critical, please be sure to send troops to respond, please." ”

Major General Suzuki hung up the phone with a snap, and immediately turned around and shouted: "Order, the cavalry squadron is immediately assembled!" ”

The Xishan Military Horse Farm must be saved, aside from the good personal relationship between Takeshi Guya and Suzuki, the more than 400 military horses domesticated in the military horse farm must not fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, otherwise, if the Eighth Route Army uses these military horses to form a cavalry team, then they will be even more difficult to deal with, which is not a good thing for the imperial army.

…………

East of Jining City.

Taking advantage of the cover of night, the special operations team quietly infiltrated a courtyard house on the periphery of the arsenal, which had been rented by Liu Tiezhu in advance.

In the courtyard, more than 60 special combat personnel were ready to go.

Before the operation, Cao Shangfei had already probed the bottom of the entire arsenal in detail, the overall layout of the arsenal, how long the wall was, how many sentry posts there were on the wall, how many people there were in each sentry, how many warehouses there were in the arsenal, how many barricades between the warehouses, how many firepower points, how many patrols, and how many minutes between the time intervals, all of them were clear!

As long as there are no accidents and the defenders are not alarmed in advance, Liu Tiezhu is 100% sure that he will take the arsenal.

If the devil had taken precautions in advance, and the situation evolved into a frontal attack, then the possibility of taking the arsenal intact would be sharply reduced to less than forty percent, and the little devils were not fools after all, once they were given enough time to react, they would definitely blow up the arsenal if they were sure that they could not keep the arsenal.

There are still a few hours left before the appointed time, and the team members are waiting in silence.

Without warning, fierce gunfire suddenly sounded in the direction of the northern suburbs, Liu Tiezhu's face suddenly changed greatly, and he hurriedly climbed the courtyard wall to look in the direction of the arsenal, only to see that the four searchlights on the watchtowers around the arsenal had all been turned on, and the snow-bright lights were shooting back and forth, illuminating the area of several hundred meters outside the arsenal as bright as day.

The special combat team members also looked at each other, and Pang Hu said depressedly: "Dog, what's going on?" ”

Cao Shangfei also said angrily: "As soon as the gun goes off, the little devils in the arsenal will definitely strengthen their vigilance, and even the sentry will be readjusted, damn it, isn't this deliberately blocking Lao Tzu?" If you want Lao Tzu to find out which group of blind bandits did it, Lao Tzu has to skin them alive! ”

"Alright, shut up." Liu Tiezhu retracted into the courtyard depressedly, and then turned back to Cao Shangfei and said, "The situation has changed, the little devils in the arsenal are already on guard, and a sneak attack is obviously impossible, so you go out of the city to find the brigade seat and ask the brigade seat for the next course of action." ”
