Sawada Tokushige led the cavalry brigade to rush forward less than a kilometer, and suddenly, dozens of armored combat vehicles roared from both sides of the road, rushing in front of Sawada Tokushige and the devil cavalry to block the road.

Looking at the very high heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns on the armored car, Sawada Tokushige chuckled in his heart, and the whole person was like falling into an ice cave, and his despair was overflowing.

As the saying goes, dogs jump over the wall when they are in a hurry, not to mention a group of devils who have been brainwashed by the spirit of bushido, in despair, Sawada De took a breath of cold air, and slowly raised the general sword in his hand, and the more than 1,000 devil cavalry behind him brushed and pulled out the bright swords to follow Sawada Deshige's saber and slowly raised it.

"Long live the Empire, long live His Majesty the Emperor!" Sawada Tokushige was the first to howl.

"Long live the Empire, long live His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Long live the Empire, long live His Majesty the Emperor!"

More than a thousand devil cavalrymen raised their swords and howled in unison, as if they were emboldening themselves.

"Kill Quack!" Sawada Tokushige swung his saber forward and roared fiercely.

"Rush! Kill! More than a thousand devil cavalry howled wolf and rode forward, raising their snow-bright and sharp sabers and launching a suicidal charge.

Dozens of armored vehicles of the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the 3rd Armored Regiment blocked the road opened fire one after another, and hundreds of vehicle-mounted heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns roared at the same time.

"Tutu Tu Tu ...... Da Da Da ...... "The ghost cavalry that was charging collided head-on with the dense fire net of the three regiments, and the dozens of cavalry in front of him were suddenly pierced by countless blood holes by the powerful machine gun bullets, and the war horses screamed and fell down again and again, and the powerful habitual surname made the devil cavalry on horseback be thrown out of the distance, but they had already died of anger before they landed.

After being hit head-on, the remaining devil cavalry subconsciously divided into two groups and ran towards the fields on both sides of the road, but their speed was obviously not as fast as the speed of the machine gunners of the third armored regiment turning their guns, and the machine gunners with sufficient ammunition did not skimp on bullets, slammed the trigger and swept the machine guns all the way over.

At the same time, hundreds of No. 4 tank groups of the 1st and 2th Tank Regiments of the armored brigade also caught up under the leadership of the brigade commander Zhang Xudong, and saw that the 3rd Regiment and the devil cavalry were fighting fiercely, Zhang Xudong excitedly picked up the walkie-talkie and almost ordered with a roar: "Attention to all battalions and companies, advance at full speed, be sure to annihilate this devil cavalry, and not let one of them slip through the net~!" ”

After receiving Zhang Xudong's order, the armored soldiers who had been sharpening their knives for a long time were suddenly like wild horses that had been unleashed, and hundreds of tanks rumbled towards the devil cavalry with a mountain of overwhelming momentum, and the corpses of the devil men and horses on the ground where the tank car passed were all crushed into powder, and some of the injured devil cavalry who fell to the ground were crushed into meat cakes by the hard tracks of the No. 4 tank.

Soon, the rampaging tank group scattered the cavalry formation of the devils, and most of the cavalry were either swept away by the vehicle-mounted machine guns of the third regiment, or directly crushed by the huge No. 4 tank company with men and horses.

It was originally the most powerful unit in the era of cold weapons, but it was completely vulnerable in the face of modern mechanical troops, and it didn't even have a chance to fight back.

Occasionally, a few cavalrymen rushed to the tank, but the sharp sabers of the past had no way to deal with the heavy armor of the No. 4 tank.

Before they could turn around and run away, the huge body of Tank No. 4 suddenly turned around, and the unprepared devil cavalry and men and horses were knocked to the ground, the engine let out a roar, and several cavalrymen were crushed under the tracks.

The hapless Sawada Tokushige, as the supreme military commander of this cavalry unit, always had dozens of cavalry accompanying him to protect him, but this also happened to make him the target of the officers and soldiers of the battalions and companies of the armored brigade.

Several armored vehicles of the 3rd Regiment pursued rapidly while firing heavily with machine guns. I don't care about the subordinates behind me from time to time who are shot and fall off the horse, Sawada Dezhong rode on the war horse and only cared about running for his life, but he didn't expect the war horse to suddenly fall into a paddy field, the paddy field was muddy and difficult to walk, the war horse carried nearly two hundred catties of Sawada Dezhong, and the four hooves were even deeper in the mud, and the speed suddenly fell.

Several armored vehicles that chased to the edge of the paddy field turned their cars sideways, and the vehicle-mounted machine guns opened fire fiercely, and a dense rain of bullets instantly beat Sawada Toshige and his men and horses into a hornet's nest.

Fengyang Gorge.

Accompanied by Liang Jiahan, Qiao Anbang came to a bunker located halfway up the mountain, and was holding a telescope to observe the enemy's situation.

After pondering for a moment, Qiao Anbang immediately turned his head to Liang Jiahan and said, "Second Lieutenant Liang, immediately send someone to inform the first battalion commander and ask him to lead people to attack immediately, pursue the devils under the mountain, and capture their positions!" "Liang Jiahan's official position in saving [***] is the second lieutenant attendant adjutant, although he has served as Qiao Anbang's attendant adjutant for a while, but the two have always been commensurate with their public positions.

Qiao Anbang was busy with the war and did not have the leisure to further deepen his relationship with his beautiful attendant adjutant, so it was most appropriate to call her Second Lieutenant Liang.

"Yes!" Liang Jiahan straightened his chest and brushed the ground, and then turned around and took the order.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of officers and soldiers of the 1st Guard Battalion, under the leadership of the 1st Battalion Commander, launched a pursuit of the remnants of the 58th Infantry Wing of the enemy in front of them.

After the first battalion fully captured the position of the original 58th Infantry Wing at the foot of the mountain, Qiao Anbang ordered to stop the pursuit, after all, his main force had not yet arrived, and no matter how strong the combat effectiveness of the guard regiment was, it was impossible to recover Fengyang County with one battalion, not to mention that Qiao Anbang knew that the main force of half of the 13th Division was still stationed in Fengyang County.

And around the 13th Division, there are tens of thousands of troops of the 114th and 9th Divisions, the Battle of Xuzhou, although the time has passed, the overall strength of the [***] side has also been slightly improved, but the army has dispatched more troops than the original history, the North China Front sent the two main divisions of the Second Army, and the Central China Front Army sent 100,000 troops, of which the task of the 13th Division is to advance in the direction of Xuzhou, in order to contain the [***] team in the Huaihe River Basin area in the southern section of the Jinpu Line.

The 9th Division seized the opportunity to capture southern Anhui, central Jiangsu, northern Jiangsu, and southern Jiangsu, and after completing the above-mentioned combat tasks, the Third Master Regiment should move north to Xuzhou and join forces with the North China Front Army in Xuzhou to complete its strategic goal of connecting the northern and southern battlefields.

However, now with the addition of salvation [***], the situation in Huainan has taken a sharp turn for the worse in an instant, and the two main wings of the 13th Division have suffered heavy losses one after another, and their strength has been greatly damaged, even now Qiao Anbang's rescue [***] has withdrawn from the battle, and the 13th Division is also unable to cross the river to the north to attack.

Moreover, with the arrival of the main forces to save [***] one after another, the 13th Division, which has doubled the pressure, is very likely to ask for help from its friendly forces, so it cannot be ruled out that the rescue [***] will have to deal with the nearly 100,000 troops of the Three Master Regiments of the Yue Army alone.

Therefore, the most important thing at the moment is not to pursue the remnants of the retreating army, but to consolidate the vested positions on the south bank and wait for the arrival of the three main divisions to save [***], and then have the opportunity to formulate the next battle plan according to the battlefield situation.

Anyway, as long as you save [***] and hold the Huai River defense line, then you can ensure that the southern section of Xuzhou is safe, so that General Li Zongren can also concentrate the main force of the Fifth Theater to meet the two master regiments of the North China Army, and the victory of Taierzhuang is likely to evolve into a victory in Xuzhou.

As long as the Battle of Xuzhou is won, Qiao Anbang's Pheasant and Ji Base Area will not directly face the attack and encirclement of the Yue army in a short time, so that he will have more ample time to develop and strengthen himself.

This kind of time is not much, as long as one year, in order to save [***] the current scale and foundation, as long as Qiao Anbang is given a year, he is confident that he can pull up a tiger army that is enough to reverse the situation of the mainland's resistance, and at that time, save [***] will be the first to blow the horn of counterattack against the Yue army.

After the first battalion captured the position of the 58th Wing, Qiao Anbang and Chu Jingming and others went down to Fengyang Gorge together, and was inspecting the room, when a soldier ran over and saluted Qiao Anbang with a snap: "Report to the headquarters, not long ago, our guard regiment with the assistance of the armored brigade has successfully captured the important place of Tianma Peak, and more than 2,000 people have been annihilated. The armored brigade also came with good news, they raised a few kilometers south of Tianma Peak to annihilate a force of devil cavalry, about thousands of people, plus the guard regiment, a total of nearly 4,000 enemy killed, in addition to the armored brigade of the third regiment of the second battalion of the first squad leader led several armored soldiers to kill a major general. ”

"Good! Good! Qiao Anbang nodded in praise, and then waved his hand and said: "Pass my order, the third battalion of the guard will stick to Tianma Peak, the second battalion will return to the ferry to prepare to meet the army to cross the river, and the armored brigade mobile patrol will respond back and forth!" ”

"Also, bring me the armored soldier who killed the major general, and I will personally reward him!" Qiao Anbang thought about it and added.

"Yes!" The warrior replied with a bang, then turned and took the order.

After seeing the soldiers leave, Qiao Anbang turned to Chu Jingming and said, "Big brother, I saved the communication battalion directly under the [***] headquarters and left it on the north bank, I want to trouble you to bring someone back to pick them up." ”

"Anbang, you want to set up your headquarters on the south bank as well?" Chu Jingming said in a slight surprise.

"Of course, my subordinates are all on the south bank, as their commander, I naturally have to stay on the south bank and fight side by side with them, and with me, the soldiers of the whole army will do their best to fight against the water, and I will also follow Han Xin's backwater battle today!" Qiao Anbang said in a righteous and awe-inspiring way.

"Okay, I'll do it right away." Chu Jingming replied briskly, and immediately turned around and left.

Qiao Anbang turned around to see Chu Jingming leave, but he didn't notice that there was a hint of strangeness in Liang Jiahan's gaze next to him.
