"Hit, hit me hard."

"Da, da."

With an order, the 118th Regiment opened full firepower, and the thick bullets of the heavy machine guns shot at the rushing cavalry team with ultra-high speed, the lethality of the heavy machine guns was too ferocious, and the cavalry team was swept away like cutting wheat, and the battle was extremely tragic.

The automatic rifles in the hands of the soldiers also opened fire at the same time, forming a powerful network of fire, which was comparable to flesh and blood under the metal barrage, and the cavalry brigade of the 4th Division was hit by Yan zhòng and suffered heavy casualties.

Jianchuan Miji rushed in the middle of the cavalry team, watching the cavalry troops in front of him being torn apart by the enemy's powerful firepower, his heart became cold, the enemy's firepower was too strong, completely beyond his estimate, what kind of army is this, how can it have such powerful firepower.

Suddenly, Jianchuan Miji felt a tightness in his chest, looked down, a blood flower had appeared in his chest, the strength of his body was quickly evacuated, he felt that the surroundings had become dark, his hand could no longer grasp the reins, the war knife held high in his right hand had been put down, his body was crooked, Jianchuan Miji was thrown down by the high-speed running war horse, the follow-up cavalry could not dodge, and the horse's hooves trampled on Jianchuan Miji's body, and after a while, the commander of this cavalry unit had become unrecognizable.

Under the powerful firepower, the cavalry brigade suffered heavy casualties, and in only a short period of ten minutes, most of them were annihilated by the Huafu army, and only the last hundred or so horsemen of the team saw that the general trend had gone, and turned around and fled.

"Your Majesty, the Second Division has exchanged fire with the Fourth Division of the Japanese Army, and just now Division Commander Li Meng reported that the cavalry regiment of the Fourth Division has been annihilated, and more than 4,000 enemies have been annihilated." Guo Yu's confidential secretary took a copy of the communication record and handed it to Guo Yu.

"That's the fire, and the Japanese reacted quickly." Speaking of the results, the communication record seems to be very interesting, the content is very simple, but it records that at 7:35 this morning, the blocking force at the front of the Second Division exchanged fire with the Japanese Army, and the enemy cavalry brigade was completely annihilated half an hour later.

After Guo Yu read it, he handed over the communication record to Lin Haichao and Zong Huaishan, who were sitting on the side.

After reading the content, Lin Haichao asked, "Your Majesty, are you going to use the army to capture Tokyo?" When he asked these words, Lin Haichao was obviously a little worried.

If Guo Yu really wants to consolidate the results of the battle and not let go of Yokosuka, then Japan will continue to send troops to attack here, and now the army of the Huafu Army has only brought 15,000 people, how can it resist the repeated attacks of the Japanese.

Guo Yu smiled and shook his head: "How is it possible, I won't do such a thankless thing, although there are only two units of the Japanese Army around Tokyo now, the first division and the fourth division, the number is only more than 50,000 people, but Japan's war potential is still very strong, if we go deep into the interior of Japan to fight, we will be attacked from all sides, so I didn't think about letting the army do this." ”

"Then how can you let the army put on a position and face the Japanese army." Lin Haichao was puzzled and continued to ask.

"Hehe, Yokosuka's position is extremely important, Japan must try their best to recapture it, otherwise they will be like a man's back in their throats, and they will be restless, and we will let the second division there to block it, lead the Japanese army over, and continue to consume the military strength of the Japanese, I believe that the second division we brought can still do it." Guo Yu said.

Hearing this, Lin Haichao nodded, suddenly thought of something, and asked: "Then won't the Japanese send troops to make a detour, why do you have to fight to the death with the second division."

Guo Yu continued: "You must know that we are the attacker, and they are the defending side of Japan, so they must try their best to block our way and prevent the Second Division from passing through and attack Tokyo. ”

"Then we" Lin Haichao didn't ask, but the meaning of the words had already been made clear, that is, even if we eliminated some Japanese soldiers, what role could it play, Guo Yu was naturally able to understand Lin Haichao's doubts.

Guo Yu's expression suddenly became stern, "Sometimes, you don't necessarily want to achieve any strategic intention before you launch an attack, why can't the reason be simple, I let the second division put there to block the enemy, the purpose is very simple, that is, to destroy the enemy, kill and injure a large number of the living forces of the Japanese army, kill them to make them afraid, let them know the strength of our Huafu Army, and finally let this atmosphere spread to Japan, so that all the people in Japan know the strength of our Huafu Army." ”

Deterrence means to deter Japan, to defeat the arrogance of the Japanese government, and to destroy the arrogance of all the Japanese people.

Listening to Guo Yu's words, Lin Haichao and Zong Huaishan were also in their hearts, and even they felt a little chill in their hearts after listening to Guo Yu's words, you can imagine what the Japanese army will be like in the future.

Guo Yu's purpose is really simple, now Nanhua has no strength to really eat Japan, even if the Japanese navy is eliminated and the road of Japanese aggression is blocked, but the Japanese army is still well preserved, although Japan now only has a permanent army of more than 500,000 people, but Japan's war potential is still very large, in a short period of time, people can organize more than 2 million army, and he is still fighting on the mainland, many things become simple, if you want to fully occupy Japan, enslave Japan, Guo Yu did not have a million soldiers sent over, and this arduous task was not easy to complete.

But Guo Yu still has a way to make Japan submit, after all, he has the most advanced weapons in the world, Guo Yu is ready to make Japan a little bit chaotic, and then completely destroy their will and force Japan to surrender.

"Commander, do we want to clean up the battlefield." Looking at the road, which was full of stumps and broken arms, the regimental chief of staff asked.

"We are not obliged to collect the corpses of little Japan," Zhu Mingyuan looked at the battlefield under the mountain, at this time, in addition to a large number of Japanese soldiers and war horse corpses, many war horses that had escaped the catastrophe stood in place, and there were many wounded Japanese soldiers wailing there, and the entire battlefield was like the Shura region.

"How's our soldiers doing?" The head of the regiment, Zhu Mingyuan, asked.

"There are no casualties, but everyone is experiencing real combat for the first time, there is little blood, some soldiers are still a little uncomfortable, the teaching team is already appeasing the feelings of the soldiers, but our foundation is good, the training is enough, as long as a little adjustment can pass, I believe that after this time, they will grow into real elite soldiers." said the chief of staff.

The biggest shortcoming of the Huafu Army is that it has little actual combat, and only when it sees blood can it become a qualified soldier.

Zhu Mingyuan raised his hand and looked at his watch, "It's 8 o'clock, let the soldiers eat something to warm their stomachs, there will be a big battle waiting for us, as long as we suppress the first round of attack, we will go back to rest, there are still many troops ready to rotate later, it is estimated that they are all in a hurry." ”

"Okay, then I'll go down and have a look." The chief of staff went with a few men to inspect the soldiers.

Hearing the news that the cavalry regiment was completely annihilated, the commander of the Fourth Division, Utsunomiya Taro, directly gave the staff officer a slap in the face, "Bastard, how could the cavalry regiment be completely annihilated, you must have lied about the military situation." ”

"Yes" The staff officer did not dare to reply, so he could only stand up and bow his head.

"Your Excellency the division commander, let's confirm the news first, didn't it say that more than 100 people in the cavalry regiment escaped back?" Chief of Staff Shoroku Suzuki persuaded the enraged Utsunomiya Taro.

"Go and call me those deserters, I'm going to find out what's going on." Utsunomiya Taro said.

In a short time, several officers of the cavalry regiment were brought before Utsunomiya Taro, the highest of whom was a lieutenant, as well as several second lieutenant officers.

"Sue me, what the hell is going on." Utsunomiya Taro asked with a frosty face.

Several low-ranking officers recounted what had happened in a trembling tone, which convinced Utsunomiya Taro that the cavalry regiment that had set off one step earlier than him had been wiped out, and now there were only a few deserters left.

"Bastard, asshole, asshole." Utsunomiya Taro cursed as he whipped the officers of the cavalry regiment with his horsewhip, "Flee on the battlefield, you are cowards, a disgrace to the Empire, you should rush forward and die for the Empire." ”

Although the Fourth Division is a first-class division, it is the highest-level division in Japan, and it is also a horse-pulling division, that is, using horses as power to transport weapons, ammunition and materials, etc., about 7,000 horses in a division, which will greatly increase the movement speed of the troops, and it will be convenient to carry ammunition and materials, which will greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the troops.

And the combat units in the divisions, the strongest combat effectiveness is the cavalry troops, and then except for the more precious artillery units, the rest are ordinary infantry, which is no different from other divisions and regiments.

Therefore, the cavalry unit in each unit is the main force and key care object in the army, and now in the absence of armored corps, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry is much stronger than that of ordinary soldiers, even if the status of the cavalry in World War II is a little embarrassing, but this branch of the army is still above the infantry.

The troops spent a lot of money and materials to get a cavalry, but in less than half an hour, the cavalry brigade sent out by Utsunomiya Taro himself was completely wiped out, which really made him not feel distressed.

Utsunomiya Taro whipped for a while, and the chief of staff, Suzuki Soroku, stepped forward to persuade that even if he killed a few of them, it would be useless now, so it was better to ask about the enemy's specific combat effectiveness so as to arrange the next battle.

After careful questioning again, I learned about the enemy's combat ability, but it also made Utsunomiya Taro and Chief of Staff Suzuki Shoroku take a breath of cool air, a large number of mortars, a barrage of machine guns like hail and rain, what kind of strong army is this, they are now starting to worry about the fourth division.

However, the Imperial Military Department issued a death order, and at any cost, they also wanted to recapture the Yokosuka Military Port, and looking at the snowy sky and muddy roads, they felt that the dark clouds in the sky were so oppressive. R1152
