243 Great War Cavalry
In the following time, the special forces led by Li Xiang began to shine, and they continued to attack the surrounding Japanese puppet army, disturbing them unpeacefully, and their heads were cut one after another, but the little devils often couldn't even catch the shadow. Therefore, in the Japanese-occupied zone, Li Xiang's troops were called "ghost army"!
In parallel with the continuous sorties of special forces, the special forces reserve is also thriving. Most of them are not suitable to be special forces, and there are always shortcomings that cannot be overcome by training, and they have to be returned to their original units. Although these people did not meet the standards of the special forces, after all, they had received advanced training methods, and they also brought these training methods back after they returned, so almost all the troops of the Eighth Route Army set off a high tide of training.
For this situation, the top brass of the Eighth Route Army is naturally happy to see it, but the little devil is not happy. Not to mention anything else, Li Xiang's special forces alone attacked continuously, and there were thousands of little devils eliminated. And that's not even counting the huge losses of weapons and ammunition, medicines, supplies, gold and silver. Didn't you see the life of the Eighth Route Army getting more and more relaxed? It was all snatched from the devil's puppet army. To this end, Okamura decided to launch a large-scale sweeping operation against the Eighth Route Army.
Once the devils attack on a large scale, the Eighth Route Army will not be able to stop it. After all, they are poorly equipped and poorly trained, and they are not opponents at all in positional warfare. So under the command of the boss, the Eighth Route Army used their best tactics such as guerrilla warfare, tunnel warfare, and sparrow warfare to deal with devils.
Li Xiang's special forces naturally would not be idle, and the number of troops that grew to eighty-nine people was divided into ten groups by him and attacked separately. Fighting on their own.
In fact, the tactics of the special forces are very similar to those of the Eighth Route Army at this time, and they are also guerrilla warfare, sparrow warfare and the like. It's just that the combat quality of the special forces is much stronger than that of the average fighter. The equipment is also better, and the natural combat effectiveness is not the same. Every time the special forces attack. They can all hit the key points, either the headquarters is attacked, or the ammunition is blown up, and the little devils dare not be too scattered, so they can only concentrate and focus on protecting the key departments.
In this way, the gap left is larger, making it easier for the Eighth Route Army to break through. But the same thing is that once you are bitten by a devil. The Eighth Route Army was often powerless to resist and could be annihilated if it was not careful. For example, when Li Yunlong's independent regiment was scattered and broke through, because it found that the devils were harming a village and slaughtering the elderly, weak, women and children, they had to shoot to attract the attention of the devils and cover the evacuation of the people.
The common people escaped, but Li Yunlong was entangled by devils. The most terrible thing is that Li Yunlong still made a swing at this time. Inability to act. Li Yunlong asked the others to retreat first, and he led some people to stay behind. He's the head of a regiment, how can he be allowed to play cover? Fortunately, there was also a Duan Peng beside him, who knocked him unconscious with one palm. Carry it on your back and run. And in order to cover Li Yunlong, the other soldiers fought to the death and did not retreat, and all of them died heroically.
But even if these warriors were killed. didn't hold back the devil for long, and Duan Peng, who was carrying Li Yunlong on his back, was still caught up. In desperation. Duan Peng had no choice but to hide in a dilapidated house, ready to fight with the devil.
Coincidentally. Originally, it was Wei Dayong who fled with Li Yunlong on his back, but now it was Wei Dayong who led a special forces team nearby, and after hearing the gunshots, he quickly supported and killed the commander of the devil by surprise. The rest of the devils went crazy, immediately abandoned Li Yunlong, and turned their heads to chase Wei Dayong. But how could Wei Dayong be so easy to chase? chased and fled for more than ten miles, Wei Dayong and the others were injured by one person, but the devil left more than 30 corpses.
Then Zhao Gang led a part of the soldiers to help, first rescued Li Yunlong, and then followed the corpse along the way to find Wei Dayong, and the two sides fought back and forth, completely eliminating this group of devils.
And the team of special forces led by Li Xiang coincidentally encountered the cavalry company of the Independent Regiment that was fighting a decisive battle with the devil cavalry. When Li Xiang first established a special force in the Independent Regiment, he was robbed of a lot of limelight by the cavalry company, and now he is in trouble with the cavalry company, which just makes them owe a big favor.
It's just that Li Xiang only has nine people with his own subordinates, even if everyone is a sharpshooter, he is afraid that he will not be able to stop the charge of the devil cavalry. So he didn't jump out at once, but found a small high ground, dug a bunker on it that could only accommodate nine people, and left a rope before he began to attack the Japanese cavalry. And Li Xiang also took out his stunt again, three hundred meters away, one shot at a time, and shot his head with a gun.
Li Xiang's gun is not only accurate, but also fast, it can shoot three or four shots in a second, and the action of pulling the bolt and loading it can bring out the afterimage, and he killed more than a dozen devils in a few seconds. This made the devil commander unmissable, if Li Xiang was allowed to fight like this, his subordinates would suffer heavy losses. So a team was divided to deal with Li Xiang.
But Li Xiang is not alone, he also has eight special forces under his command, four of them use submachine guns, two use 38 covers as sniper rifles, and two are equipped with shell guns, and they are also waiting for a grenadier. A small group of devil cavalry rushed up, and they didn't move their nests, but just calmly fired their guns on the spot. Those who are far away are fired with grenadiers and rifles, those who are close are strafed with submachine guns, and those who are closer are fired with grenades. As a result, this devil team was all solved before they rushed in front of Li Xiang at all.
This surprised the devil commander, but also knew who he had met. After all, Li Xiang's special forces are now famous, and they can stop children crying at night on the side of devils and traitors. So the commander immediately divided a squadron and a grenadier squad to deal with Li Xiang together.
But Li Xiang wouldn't stand there and let him fight, when he saw that the devil had come with so many people, he immediately led his men to fight while retreating, and the action was very frequent. It is often the devil's grenadier that has just taken aim, and they move their position. Moreover, Li Xiang's gun and the grenadier team of the special forces also stared at the grenadiers of the devils, and with only one gun and one grenadier, almost all the grenadiers of the devil's squad were wiped out.
It's just that Li Xiang stared at the devil's grenadiers, and those cavalry couldn't be suppressed, and they were soon approached. But Li Xiang had already seen the way out, and before the arrival of the devil cavalry, he led people to the high ground. The cavalry could not go up to the high ground, so they could only circle below and shoot at Li Xiang with their cavalry guns. But Li Xiang could hit every hundred times without showing his head within one hundred and twenty meters, they hid in the bunker, and the devils couldn't hit them at all, but they were killed a lot by Li Xiang.
The devils who were forced to be anxious simply sent out death squads and rushed to the ground to throw grenades. However, the area of the high ground is too small, and it is difficult to throw grenades accurately, even if they happen to be thrown into Li Xiang's bunker, for this kind of thing that falls slowly, Li Xiang can call them out one by one without waiting for the grenade to land.
In desperation, the devil had no choice but to send grenadiers again. However, the cavalry did not have many grenadiers, and a squad was killed by Li Xiang before, and the remaining few grenadiers were knocked out by Li Xiang as soon as they entered the firing range.
I have to say that the devil's 38 big cover is really good in some aspects, with an effective range of 800 meters. After Li Xiang became proficient, he could hit three or four out of ten at a distance of 800 meters. And with Li Xiang's rate of fire, he killed one in almost a second, so the few remaining grenadiers of the devil were consumed like this.
Without grenadiers, the devils lose their long-range strike capabilities. This made the devil commander regret it a lot, why didn't he bring two mortars? It's a pity that before leaving, he thought that mortars would not be needed to deal with Tubalu, and it would be enough to have grenadiers, but now he has tasted the bitter fruit.
The devil cavalry divided most of it to deal with Li Xiang, and the pressure on the cavalry company of the independent regiment was much less. Sun Desheng, the commander of the cavalry company, was also a fierce general, and he took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, but he actually gained the upper hand and drove the devil around. Especially Sun Desheng is brave, but not brainless, he always led the cavalry company around the high ground where Li Xiang was, so that the devils who fought with him were also within Li Xiang's range. In this way, he is too advantageous, and when the devil fights with him, he has to always pay attention to the bullets fired from the high ground, is there still a way to fight this battle?
Seeing that it was impossible to go on like this, the devil commander could only withdraw out of Li Xiang's range. But at this time, the cavalry of the devil's brigade had lost one-third. This made the devil commander painful and annoyed, and wanted to notify other friendly troops with mortars, but he was afraid that he would completely lose face, but if he didn't notify him, he really couldn't do anything about it, and he could only stalemate for a while.
Sun Desheng took this opportunity to come to the high ground and shouted at the top: "Hu San, this time it's thanks to you, otherwise my cavalry company would have been explained here!" ”
Li Xiang poked his head out of the high ground and said with a smile: "You kid just know how to thank you, remember to owe me a favor." ”
Sun Desheng laughed and said: "Okay, next time you will have our independent group, I will invite you to drink!" ”
Li Xiang said: "How many drinks?" It's not okay to eat, I'm a life-saving grace to you, please go without your care? ”
Sun Desheng stopped doing it and said, "What's the matter, you still want to peel me and squeeze oil?" I can tell you, I am a poor man, not a landlord! ”
Li Xiang said: "You are not a landlord and an old man? Don't think I don't know, Commander Li can treat you as a treasure of his heart, and let your cavalry company pick any good things first. Pretend to be poor with me, no way! At least three meals of wine, and there must be appetizers, otherwise I will shout everywhere, you Sun Desheng is ungrateful! ”
Sun Desheng laughed again: "Okay, three meals will be three meals, I agreed." But what do we do now? If you don't get rid of these little devils quickly, let alone three meals, I'm afraid you won't be able to drink one meal. ”
Li Xiang said lightly: "Don't worry, you have ordered three meals!" I'll show you today how I play cavalry! You let your people try to gather the little devil's war horses as much as possible, and find more guns to come back, the guns are full of bullets, and I will play a play for you Zhao Zilong seven in and seven out! ”
Sun Desheng was dumbfounded: "What? What do you say? Did I hear me right? ”
Li Xiang said: "If you want to go, you can go, just wait to see the performance!" ”
Sun Desheng had no choice but to follow Li Xiang's request, gathered more than 40 devils' war horses, picked up more than 60 riding guns, and after being filled with bullets, hung them on more than 20 war horses. Li Xiang gathered more than 20 horses with guns in the middle, and put the others on the periphery, all of which were connected together with reins to form a chain of horses, and then rode one of them himself, and said to Sun Desheng: "Do me another favor, let these horses run!"
