Chapter 144: Cavalry Charge
Wang Ye smiled: "If you lose, wash my clothes for three months." ”
"Three months? Then you might as well kill me. "Wei Dayong didn't have a good airway.
"Don't dare to bet? That's it. Wang Ye said, "I know that you are a coward." ”
"Who's instigating?" Wei Dayong said, "Then can you change the bet?" Like killing devils or something. ”
"Killing devils is a fart?" Wang Ye said suddenly, "Who of our Eighth Route Army doesn't kill devils?" This kind of is also worth showing off as a bet? ”
"That's right."
Wei Dayong scratched his head and said.
Wang Ye said again: "Besides, you won't necessarily lose. ”
"yes, I don't necessarily lose." Wei Dayong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "Captain, if I win, will you also wash my clothes for three months?" ”
Wang Ye said: "I only wash for half a month." ”
"Why?" Wei Dayong was unhappy, "Why do I have to wash your clothes for three months if I lose, but if you lose, you only wash for me for half a month?" ”
Wang Ye said: "Because I am the captain." ”
"Damn, the captain is amazing." Wei Dayong said angrily, "The captain can do whatever he wants, huh?" ”
"That's right, the captain is amazing, he can do whatever he wants." Wang Ye smiled, "What, you still want to beat me?" Do you have the ability to beat me? ”
Wei Dayong said: "I am also the captain. ”
"Deputy." Wang Ye said, "You're just a vice-captain. ”
"Damn, I'm gambling." Wei Da said courageously, "Half a month is half a month, anyway, I will definitely win, and when the time comes, I will go to the mud every day, and I won't be tired of you." ”
As the two were talking, a squeaky monkey scream suddenly came from ahead.
But it was the little monkey Xiao Gray raised by Liu Fenghou who was screaming and warning again.
Liu Fenghou also shouted in a low voice: "Captain, the devil is here, the devil cavalry has arrived!" ”
A few seconds later, the sound of horses' hooves rumbling in front of them was heard, and immediately afterwards, a large group of cavalry poured out from behind the col ahead.
Wang Ye couldn't help but glance at Xiao Ash who was squatting on Liu Fenghou's shoulder.
Is it true that animals are more sensitive to perception than humans? Otherwise, how to explain that Ash found the devil cavalry twice in a row before all of them?
"All of them."
Wang Ye shouted again: "Check the equipment and prepare for battle!" ”
The twenty-odd men quickly began to check their equipment, rifles, shell guns, bayonets, and cartridges, and after making sure that there was no problem, they quickly entered the combat position.
Although this lonely peak is steep enough, and there are a lot of stones near the top of the mountain, there is not much vegetation, so the devil can see the movement on the top of the lonely peak at a glance.
I saw that the leading devil officer made a gesture, and the hundreds of cavalry who followed behind him quickly spread out to the two wings, detoured from both sides of the lonely peak, and formed a circle after making a circle.
……
"All of them, dismount!"
"Team 1 watch all the horses!"
"Squad 2 attacked from the gentle slope to the south."
"Fire support from heavy machine gun squads and artillery squads."
"The rest of the squads are on standout, ready to support at any time!"
Tian Daoji gave an order, and more than 600 devil cavalry dismounted one after another.
One of the squads of devil cavalry took over the entire brigade's war horses, led them to the side of the basin, and let the war horses nibble on the soybean seedlings, sweet potato vines, and corn stalks that were already more than a person tall in the field.
More than 30 devil cavalrymen picked up their rifles and went up the gentle slope to the south.
More than 40 devils of the heavy machine gun squad also set up two Type 92 heavy machine guns.
The leader of the cavalry artillery squad trotted to Tian Daoji and said: "Captain, the stone standing on the top of the mountain provides shelter for the Eighth Route Army, and it is difficult for the shells to blow up the Eighth Route Army hiding behind the rocks, and there is a high probability that they will hit the rocks and then explode, so the shelling effect may not be too ideal, unless ......"
Tian Daoji also found out about this and asked, "Unless what?" ”
The squad leader said: "Unless the artillery position is advanced to within 500 meters, the shells can almost hit a near-vertical angle, and even if the Eighth Route Army hides behind the rocks, it is useless." ”
Tian Daoji said: "Then advance the artillery position to within 500 meters." ”
After a pause, he added, "I'll let the heavy machine gun squad cover you." ”
"Hello!" The artillery squad leader paused, and then waved behind him.
The 40 devil artillerymen trotted forward with two 90mm mortars and shells, and only when they were less than 500 meters away from the top of the hill did they put the base on the ground and put the gun body on the base.
The two small steel cannons were quickly erected, and the gunner began to fine-tune the firing of Zhu Yuan.
……
On the top of the mountain, Wei Dayong was already stupid.
"Holy! Are these devils pigs? Isn't that stupid? ”
Wei Dayong shouted in disbelief: "What are you doing with the mortar moving so close?" ”
"Stupid?" Wang Ye laughed and said, "Devils are not stupid, on the contrary, they are very smart. ”
"Is this still called smart?" Wei Dayong pointed to the artillery position of the devils under the mountain and said, "The artillery position has been placed under the noses of our snipers, is this still smart?" ”
"That's because these devils haven't tasted our power yet!"
Wang Ye snorted, and then shouted: "All the black wolf group, hunt and kill devil artillerymen freely, I have only one request for you, not to let a devil artilleryman retreat to a safe distance!" ”
After Wang Ye finished speaking, he took the lead in pulling the trigger.
When Wei Dayong hurriedly raised the telescope to look, he saw a devil man's head tilted and fell to the ground.
The distance of 500 meters is really a piece of cake for a legendary sniper like Wang Ye.
The next moment, there were two more horns, and two more devil artillery soldiers fell to the ground, but Wang Xikui and Zhao Erwa also shot one after another, and killed two devils in a blink of an eye.
Immediately after, the entire Black Wolf Group opened fire.
Eight of the devil artillery under the mountain fell in an instant.
The marksmanship of the other members of the Black Wolf Group cannot be compared with Wang Ye, Wang Xikui and Zhao Erwa, and the distance of 500 meters can ensure that the hit rate of seven or eight percent is quite good.
……
"Nani?"
Seeing this, Tian Daoji couldn't help but be taken aback.
He really didn't expect that the marksmanship of this group of Eighth Route Army would be so accurate.
Tian Daoji can't be blamed for this, because he has just returned from the southern Hebei battlefield, and his impression of the Eighth Route Army is still stuck in the Eighth Route Army of the Southern Hebei Military Region.
The North China Front Command also did not alert him.
There is not a single bit of information about the Wolf Warrior Squad.
Caught off guard, the cavalry artillery squad of the Tiandao Brigade suffered a big loss.
"Command!" At that moment, Tian Daoji shouted loudly, "The cavalry artillery team has withdrawn, hurry up!" ”
Immediately afterwards, he turned his head and yelled at the devil in the heavy machine gun position beside him: "Heavy machine gun squad, fire covers the retreat of the cavalry artillery squad, quick!" ”
"Hello!"
Two Type 92 heavy machine guns opened heavy fire on the spot.
Two dazzling tongues of fire swept across the top of the lone peak in front of them.
However, it was useless, although the rocks on the top of the mountain were beaten with smoke and dust, the rifle fire of the Eighth Route Army did not decay in the slightest.
In the midst of the continuous gunfire,
The devil artillerymen who turned and retreated fell to the ground in succession.
In particular, the artillery soldiers who were responsible for carrying the base and barrel became the key targets of the Eighth Route Army's sniping, because the Eighth Route Army knew very well that as long as the two 90mm caliber mortars were still within 500 meters, even if the devil artillery ran away, they had to come back obediently to die.
In the continuous gunfire, the devil artillery fell one after another.
Tian Daoji instantly felt his tongue dry and dry, this wave is really careless, the artillery position should not be advanced to such a close distance, and this retreat will not be able to be withdrawn!
"Yaga Yaru!"
"What do you heavy machine gun squads eat?"
Tian Daoji was furious: "Can't 2 heavy machine guns suppress a few rifles?" ”
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Tian Daoji wouldn't have believed it at all, a heavy machine gun couldn't suppress a rifle?
"Captain, we've done our best." The leader of the heavy machine gun squad trotted to Tian Daoji, and reported helplessly, "Due to the large number of rocks on the top of the mountain, coupled with the fact that it is an upward attack, our firing range is greatly restricted, and the snipers of the Eighth Route Army are scattered in various sniper positions, so they really can't be suppressed." ”
"Baga, idiot, waste, a bunch of rice buckets!" Tian Dao accumulated his anger.
Because at this moment, most of the casualties of the cavalry artillery squad were left, and there were less than ten people left.
What is even more desperate is that the 2 90mm caliber mortars have not been recovered.
Now he could only hope for the strong attack of the 2nd cavalry squad, and at that moment Tian Daoji pulled out his saber and shouted to the 2nd cavalry squad that had entered the attack position: "The 2nd cavalry squad, Tao Ci deserves, Tao Ci deserves!" ”
Although the artillery had not yet prepared for artillery fire on the defensive positions of the Eighth Route Army on the top of the mountain, and the standard offensive process had not yet been completed, the order to attack had been issued, so the attack could only be launched.
"Great Japanese Empire onboard!" More than 30 devils immediately shouted slogans and charged.
It's not that Tian Daoji doesn't want to invest more troops, but only so many people can be deployed on the hillside, because if there are more troops to attack, the attack formation will be too dense.
……
Lone peak, on the top of the mountain.
Wang Ye shouted while shooting: "The black wolf group is only responsible for hunting the artillery of the little devils, and the white wolf group and the coyote group are responsible for blocking the devils on the gentle slope in the south. ”
More than a dozen members of the White Wolf Group and the Coyote Group, who had not fired just now, also opened fire.
After firing only one volley of guns, six of the devils who were attacking upward along the gentle southern slope fell, two of whom were killed on the spot, and the remaining four were also seriously wounded.
Although the marksmanship of white wolves and coyotes is not as good as that of black wolves, they are also war wolves, and they are all elites selected from thousands of people.
Faced with this head-on attack, the remaining twenty or so devils quickly lay down and fired at the wolf team on the top of the mountain with the help of the pits or rocks on the gentle slope.
……
Seeing such a scene, Tian Daoji was a little dumbfounded.
The current situation is really a bit unexpected by Tian Daoji.
He originally thought that this group of Eighth Route Army had been chased to a corner, so he chose such a terrain in a hurry to try to make a final struggle.
However, the final struggle was only a death throes.
As long as the Japanese army set up a posture and launched an attack, it was easy to eliminate this gang of eight roads.
However, the reality gave Tian Daoji a blow to the head, and when the Tian Dao Brigade attacked, the Eighth Road not only did not collapse, but defeated the Tian Dao Brigade.
The cavalry could not attack on the back.
Artillery artillery retreated and did not come back.
Heavy machine guns also do not play their due role.
In the end, Tian Daoji found that his troops could not even organize a decent attack.
The Eighth Route Army firmly took the initiative by virtue of favorable terrain and frighteningly accurate marksmanship.
And what made Tian Daoji even more depressed was that he had no way to change the situation.
No, there is still a way, but it is really a bit embarrassing, and this way is to ask for help from the air force.
But no matter how embarrassed you are, it is better than losing the battle, and at that moment Tian Daoji gritted his teeth and roared: "The communication detachment immediately called the division headquarters and asked for tactical guidance from the aviation!" ”
The communications detachment hurriedly set up a radio station and prepared to send an announcement.
However, the communications detachment had only just set up the transmitter and opened fire.
Suddenly there was a rumbling sound behind him, and Tian Daoji was stunned.
What's the situation? The telegrams of the communications detachment have not yet been sent, and the aviation has arrived?
I looked up in a hurry, but I saw that the sky above my head was like a wash, not to mention an airplane, and there were no clouds.
The next moment, Tian Daoji's face suddenly changed: "It's a cavalry, it's the cavalry of the Zhina!" ”
As soon as the words fell, a large cavalry had already surged out from behind the hill in the direction from which they had come.
This cavalry is wearing a gray cloth uniform, and it is the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army, which is really fatal!
At that moment, Tian Dao let out a long howl of exhaustion: "Attention all teams, hurry up on the horse, hurry up on the war horse!" ”
With a long howl, Tian Daoji had already thrown off his big stride and rushed to the war horse that was eating corn a few hundred meters ahead.
It's a pity that it's too late, because the noise of the battlefield covers up the hooves of the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army, and what's more terrible is that this basin surrounded by mountains is very open, with a radius of two or three kilometers, so the Tiandao Brigade didn't even set up a guard post on the mountain road when it came, but it turned out to be a big mistake.
When the Japanese army found out, the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army had already entered within a kilometer, and had completed the starting speed, entering the final high-speed sprint stage.
In the sound of horses' hooves, the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army surged forward like a hurricane.
Hundreds of Japanese cavalry rushed forward like frightened sheep, trying to get back to their horses before they were caught up by the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army.
Sadly, it was really too late.
Before Tian Daoji and more than 600 devils rode on their war horses, the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army had already caught up, and in the flickering cold light, one after another snow-bright sabers were volleyed down in the air, and between the blood and light, one after another human heads rolled to the ground, and the little devil was really killed this time.
……
"Kill!"
Sun Desheng took the lead and caught up with a devil from behind.
With the powerful inertia of the war horse's high-speed sprint, Sun Desheng didn't even make a downward chopping action, but just stretched out the saber to the side and gently wiped it from the devil's neck.
The sharp saber immediately cut the devil's neck entirely, and blood rushed out.
The devil screamed, spun around, fell to the ground on his back, and after two convulsions, he stopped moving.
Sun Desheng continued to urge the horse forward, with strong inertia, he knocked out a devil who was blocking the way, and he could vaguely hear the clicking sound of broken bones, and this devil still had arms on his body and didn't know how many bones were broken, and the internal organs must have been displaced, squeezed and even burst.
Knocked down two devils in a row, and finally met the devil on horseback.
But it was the devil cavalry of the squad that acted as a horse stake that came over, wanting to stop the charge of the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army and win the opportunity for the main force of the cavalry brigade to get on the horse.
However, this can only be in vain.
"Kill!" Sun Desheng finally made a sharp stabbing action.
The oncoming devil cavalry only felt a flower in front of him, and immediately the whole person flew up, and at the same time, the whole world began to roll violently and irregularly.
But it was the head of the devil cavalry that flew.
Sun Desheng beheaded the devil cavalry with a single sword and continued to rush forward.
Then it suddenly became clear in front of him, and there was no devil in sight, but there were a large number of war horses, roughly counted, at least five or six hundred, which made a fortune!
But it's not time to harvest the spoils.
"Back!" Sun Desheng turned around and raised his saber again, "Kill!" ”
The cavalry of the Eighth Route Army, which had already completed a charge, reined in their horses and turned around, reorganized their formation, and then led forward with their sabers, and killed the devil cavalry again.
By this time, the devil cavalry had completely lost organized resistance.
The wave of charges of the four cavalry companies of the Eighth Route Army was like an iron sieve sifting through the devils.
Under the iron sieve of the Eighth Route Army, the organization of the devils was completely destroyed and fell into separate battles.
Therefore, the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army no longer had to maintain the integrity of the cavalry formation, and began to chase and cut freely, so the basin surrounded by mountains immediately became a slaughterhouse.
……
Lone Peak on the top.
The Wolf Warrior Squad has nothing to do at all.
From the moment the four cavalry companies turned out of the mountain pass in front and launched a charge, the Japanese army completely gave up the attack on the wolf squad, and even the squad that was lying on the gentle slope of the south and shooting at the wolf squad turned around and went down the mountain in a swarm.
But the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army soon caught up with them.
The sword flashed, and one after another the devils fell in a pool of blood.
Wang Ye breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Yes, I arrived half an hour earlier than I expected." ”
"Captain, you know?" Wei Dayong was stunned and asked, "You already knew that our cavalry would come to meet you?" But I remember that the telegram sent by the Southern Hebei Military Region to the headquarters did not say it? ”
"Do you need to talk about such a thing?" Wang Ye said abruptly, "Such an important material as medicine is related to the life and death of more than 4,000 wounded, and the head of the headquarters will definitely send troops to meet it." ”
"And now, the most mobile in the entire Taihang Military Region is the four cavalry companies of the 386 Brigade, so the brigade commander will definitely send Sun Desheng to them."
"Otherwise, do you really think I dare to defend such a Jedi?"
"If there are no reinforcements, the little devil only needs to summon the plane to blow it up, and we will really confess here."
"I mean, why did you choose such a Jedi this time?" Wei Dayong breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly realized, "It turned out that it had been calculated a long time ago. ”
