The appearance of chariots, to some extent, was actually intended to replace cavalry. So, the chariot unit has another name, which is changed to "ironclad cavalry". During World War II, there was still a considerable market for traditional cavalry on the Chinese battlefield. The Japanese army boasted of being "the second strongest army in the world" again, and did not know that the cavalry units of the Ludao had long been outdated, so even if they were standing divisions, the cavalry units were also the focus of construction.

The old and new "cavalry", simply a numerical comparison, the chariot "ironclad cavalry", in addition to the explosive power and individual flexibility is poorer, the two most important parameters of protection ability and attack means, are far more than the traditional cavalry. Watanabe should have known this, but after receiving the order from Shigetaro Kansaki, he was not alarmed by the fact that he was going to get on the chariot troops, but was quite excited, thinking that this was his chance.

Watanabe had this self-confidence, not because he was blindly optimistic, but because he had participated in an exercise, and as a result, he was stunned to defeat a chariot wing with a brigade. Of course, this tank wing is an old-fashioned tank unit of the Japanese army, which mainly fights tanks. Having experience in fighting chariots with cavalry, Watanabe was ordered to move in the direction of the big town, and began to arrange secret weapons along the way. If it had been daytime, Inoue would have seen that in a group of about five hundred cavalry members at the back of the 33rd Cavalry Wing, each horse was accompanied by two cloth bags and an oil drum. Inside the bag were bags of explosives or cluster grenades, and inside the oil drums were gasoline.

Watanabe's method of dealing with the chariot troops was actually unremarkable, that is, using extremely destructive explosives and "gasoline bombs" to attack the chariot while giving priority to killing and injuring the chariot crew. And the reason why he put this part of the devil behind is that he hopes to be able to surprise the attack when the fight starts. It's just that he didn't expect that his opponent was Liu Zheliang, and this young lieutenant general, who was only twenty-three or four years old, was known for his steadiness in his combat characteristics. He thought that he was a very clever reconnaissance method, but instead exposed the whereabouts of his own troops. Well, he proudly showed off his outstanding command skills to Inoue, and three or four thousand meters to the west, a flash of fire suddenly flickered in the originally dark background, "What is that?" A devil saw it and exclaimed. They shouted endlessly, the rumbling of the cannon had already been heard, and at this moment, all the devils and their mounts were startled, and the horses neighed and shouted - the cannonballs were still flying in the air, and many devils had already screamed miserably, but they were lifted off by their mounts, and they fell off guard and gnawed on.

"Artillery?! The people of China have artillery?! Watanabe grabbed the reins to steady himself, and roared as he turned to look for Inoue. I looked around, but I didn't find anyone from Inoue. He let out a "chuckle" in his heart, and naturally thought: "Eight grids!" This Inoue can't have been bought by the Xuebing Army, this is specially leading us to be fooled, right? ”

As he thought so, he heard a loud neighing of horses, followed by Inoue's scream: "Ouch! Save me! He turned to look behind him, and then he realized that Inoue had fallen to the ground at some point, and at this time one foot was in the stirrup and was being dragged along. Idiot! Watanabe couldn't help but scold, shouting left and right, "Help him!" ”

A skilled devil approached the startled horse on which Inoue was riding, grabbed the reins violently, and then pulled the horse with all his might.

As soon as Inoue pulled his foot out of the stirrups, the shell hit the ground and exploded.

In the first round of shelling, the accuracy was very poor, but Rao was like this, dozens of shells fell, still killing more devils and startling more horses. Then, the traces of Watanabe United were exposed. Wu Jingxiang stood on the turret of an artillery truck, climbed high and looked into the distance, and saw the war horses galloping wildly in the firelight in the distance and the Japanese troops fleeing in all directions. He adjusted his shooting in time, and the accuracy of the next third round and even the subsequent shelling was greatly improved, and he blew up the Watanabe Wing on his back.

"Your Excellency, the people of China are under sharp fire, what should I do now?" An officer asked Watanabe for instructions.

Watanabe's face was gloomy, and he had lost his previous spirit. He made a quick judgment in his heart, and after a few minutes, he ordered: "Disperse on the spot first!" He shouted again: "Tell Tamura and let his people retreat first!" ”

Tamura is the officer who commands the "secret weapon" of the Watanabe Wing. They fell far behind the large army, although some people fell to the ground and were injured because of the frightened horses, but because they were not affected by the artillery fire, they were not as embarrassed as the Japanese troops in the artillery fire. Receiving Watanabe's order, he shouted, "Five hundred meters back!" ”

More than five hundred devils smeared and retreated, and then scattered the formation, waiting quietly.

When Wu Jingxiang commanded the artillery to carry out the shelling, Liu Zheliang took the telescope and watched quietly, the shelling had just ended, he got into the car, picked up the microphone and ordered: "Tank regiment, attack!" Lao Zhang, the armored regiment is ready to keep up! Lao Cai, Lao Bao, you are ready to close the net! ”

"Boom-" 27 heavy tanks, 54 platypus ignited at the same time, and the next moment, the engines of nearly ninety armored vehicles of various types also began to fire. A few minutes later, the headlights of nearly two hundred tanks in total turned on almost simultaneously, and then, with the roar of the "boom" engines, they rushed towards the Watanabe Wing. And in the vast field, the four infantry regiments under the command of Cai Facai and Bao Hongyun, a brigade commander and a deputy brigade commander, also began to move. The Second Division did not move, and as soon as it moved, six regiments were concentrated, with a total of nearly 6,000 troops, and surrounded Watanabe's unit—when nearly 400 headlights were lit, Watanabe was determined. This at least proves a certain accuracy of Inoue's intelligence, and opposite, there were indeed two regiments of tank troops.

In the fields in the vast night, there are nearly 200 roaring steel monsters that provide cover for nearly 4,000 cadets. Of course, if Watanabe had found them now, he would have chosen to run away instead of thinking about it.

"Soldiers, draw your swords and prepare for a decisive battle for the honor of the Imperial Army!" He pulled out his command knife with a "poof" and pointed in the direction of the light.

"Hay!" Beside him, a group of elite cavalry drew their sabers in unison.

Watanabe beckoned a cronie over and said to him, "Tell Tamura that we will rush over to attract the fire of the Shina people, let them follow us closely, and if the opportunity arises, we will rush forward without hesitation!" ”

"Hay!"

Watanabe looked around on the horse and found Inoue, and said to him with a proud face, "Inoue, you should stay here." Take a good look and see how I can break through the chariots of the Chi Na with my cavalry - you will see that the chariots of the Chi Na are not as terrible as you think! Soldiers, rush! ”

"Rush!"
