345 Skirmish Cavalry Tactics
Then, Shen Quan did what he said, and sure enough, he led the soldiers to stay temporarily, covering the early evacuation of the 258th Regiment after the 258th Regiment was broken.
Lu Daxian left with a thousand thanks.
Looking at the back of Lu Duoxian and his entourage fleeing in a panic, Sun Desheng couldn't help but scold: "These traitors, if we hadn't come in time and designated as the lackeys of the devils, I really wanted to give them a shuttle, so I would have killed them here." ”
Shen Quan said: "Old Sun, extinguish the fire, these guys will clean up sooner or later, but it's not time yet, if our side really has a conflict with these stubborn troops, the little devil should be happy." ”
The platoon leader asked, "Are we really so stupid to stay and break off for them?" ”
"Didn't we say okay, take other people's equipment, and help by the way!" Shen Quan said with a smile.
The platoon commander said: "Battalion commander, it's not that I speak badly, if we don't grab the equipment on hand of these recalcitrant soldiers, the devils will catch up with you and be snatched away by the devils." ”
"It's cheap, little devil, it's better to leave it to us to fight against the Japanese!"
"That's it, these stubborn troops, it would be good if we didn't destroy them, and we would cut off the queen for them?" Sun Desheng said.
Shen Quanle said: "After all, our Eighth Route Army is a benevolent and righteous army, so if you buy them ten minutes, ten minutes should be enough for them to run a good distance, right?" Ten minutes later, we immediately retreated to the war horse area and rode away. ”
After Shen Quan finished speaking, the cadres were stunned, and then they couldn't help laughing.
Now everyone knows how much damage the second battalion commander has.
In ten minutes, it would be good for these defeated recalcitrant troops to run three miles.
When the ten minutes came, everyone mounted their horses, and it would not be long before they could cross the fleeing recalcitrant army.
At that time, these recalcitrant troops will have to be left behind and let the little devils chase and kill.
Seeing the cadres looking at each other, Shen Quan said seriously:
"What are you still doing? Hurry up and prepare, ten minutes, we are benevolent enough. ”
"After a while, the battle will start, and most of the little devils will treat us as the 251st Regiment that has fled, and the devils who chased after us were caught off guard, and they would definitely have to be caught off guard by us."
"I've calculated, in ten minutes, the main force of the devil won't be able to reach this place, and we can evacuate smoothly."
……
Everything was as Shen Quan speculated.
The devil puppet army chased out from the north gate of Taiyuan City, they knew very well what kind of goods this 251 regiment was.
To put it mildly, it's just a rabble.
In the process of pursuit, the devil puppet army pressed the 251st Regiment throughout the whole process.
So the vanguard of the devils chased fiercely, and they didn't even wait for the follow-up main forces to meet at all.
The first to catch up was only a squad of devils, plus a platoon of puppet soldiers.
Shen Quan hid on the high slope, observed the situation of the Japanese puppet army with a telescope, and saw the devil squad and the puppet army chasing first, Shen Quan's heart moved.
"This little devil is really rampant, dozens of people dare to chase hundreds of people, it seems that he has not been planted, we are sure of this devil."
"Settle the battle in ten minutes, set aside three minutes to clean up the battlefield, and then quickly evacuate according to the pre-planned time."
"I'll take a frontal ambush, but after the battle starts, once our combat effectiveness is exposed, the devils will definitely retreat, and we can't cut off the devil's retreat, so we can't completely annihilate this devil."
"In this way, Sun Desheng, Chen Dalian, each of you will lead a cavalry, and with the help of the mobility of the war horse, you will make a detour from both sides, and take advantage of the devil's approach to the foot of the mountain, completely cutting off the devil's retreat."
"Let's fight a small-scale encirclement and annihilation battle."
"Let the little devils also know the power of our cavalry tactics."
The tactical command ability of Shen Quan, the commander of the second battalion, was obvious to all the cadres of the whole regiment.
Even the regiment commander Kong Jie once praised Shen Quan at a military meeting, saying that the second battalion commander of the entire independent regiment had the most ghost ideas.
At this moment, Shen Quan's arrangement was finished.
Sun Desheng and Chen Dalian immediately realized that this was definitely the perfect application of small-scale cavalry tactics.
"Yes!"
Sun Desheng, commander of the cavalry company, and Chen Dalian, the instructor, responded in unison.
Each side took a third of the men and horses, about 40 people, first rushed to the area where the war horses were tethered, took the war horses, and then arrived at the designated position, waiting for the Japanese army to enter the foot of the mountain, and immediately detoured from both sides to cut off the retreat of the Japanese puppet army.
……
……
Taiyuan City.
Just when the 251st Regiment was fleeing backwards, Takeda Eijiro, the head of the Japanese army's secret service in Taiyuan City, was carried into the city by the devil's adjutant, and was pierced through the lobe of his lungs by a bullet fired by Wang Xikui, and he couldn't live happily.
"Your Excellency Zhongzuo, Your Excellency Zhongzuo, you must hold on, the doctor will be here soon, and he will definitely be able to save you!"
The devil's adjutant Kudo Tajun looked anxious, and opened his mouth to persuade him, and his tears almost fell.
While consoling, Kudo couldn't help but scold Lu Duoxian: "Lu Duoxian, this bastard, has killed your life, Your Excellency Nakasa, I will definitely kill him with my own hands." ”
Eijiro Takeda, who was pierced through the lobes of his lungs, was already very difficult to speak at the moment.
Just as Kudo was scolding, he trembled with his right hand and grabbed the corner of Kudo's clothes.
Obviously there is something to say.
Kudo hurriedly squatted down and leaned his ears forward.
"Your Excellency, do you have anything to say to your subordinates?"
"Remember...... Remember, I'm still the same sentence...... The May 1st Regiment is impossible...... Rebellion, and there is no rebellion...... Motivation.
What do you see in front of you...... It may not be the truth, it must be ...... Investigate clearly and then ...... Make conclusions, don't make ...... Replace what could have been ...... Pull over the team,Forced into a hostile situation,Kudo-kun,Go ...... In the future, the intelligence work of Taiyuan City will be ...... Please......"
Before the last word could be spit out, Eijiro Takeda clenched Kudo Tatoshi's right hand and hung it down weakly, his eyes slowly closing.
Eijiro Takeda, the head of the Japanese army's secret service in Taiyuan City, died on this.
"Your Excellency Nakasa!"
Kudo screamed sadly, and the surrounding devil soldiers also looked sad.
And as soon as Eijiro Takeda dies like this, the next work of the secret service in Taiyuan City will be handed over to Kudo Tatoshi.
The soldiers' eyes also converged on Kudo.
Kudo was silent for a moment, and then his eyes left Eijiro Takeda, who had lost his breath, he slowly stood up and said loudly:
"The top priority, the first thing, is not to let the intelligence network of Taiyuan City have a hole because of the sacrifice of His Excellency Zhongzuo, and give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of.
The second thing, the explanation of His Excellency Zhongzuo before leaving, you have also heard, whether the matter in front of you is a trick of the 251st Regiment or not, it still needs to be determined, these days, you will work harder, and you must find out the specific situation clearly. ”
"Hey!"
The devils replied in unison.
Kudo was awakened by Eijiro Takeda's words before his death, and he carefully analyzed the situation this time, and it was indeed full of suspicions.
The 251st Regiment had no reason to take advantage of this surrender and handover ceremony, and secretly opposed the water.
Lu Duoxian, the head of the 251st Regiment, also did not show anything wrong at that time, and even urged Eijiro Takeda to carry out the handover ceremony immediately.
Suddenly reversed?
During the previous battle, Kudo noticed that many soldiers on the side of the 251st Regiment were a little stunned.
Apparently there was no expectation that there would be a sudden exchange of fire.
There was also Nalu Daxian, who was in an emergency situation at the time, and seemed to want to explain to Kudo, but was injured by Kudo.
On the side of the 251st Regiment, the main thing was to kill the head of the agency, Eijiro Takeda, and there were not many Japanese soldiers killed.
Then it was routed, and under the firepower of the Japanese army at the city gate, the 251st Regiment lost nearly half of its men and horses.
This kind of stupid thing that harms others and is not good for oneself.
Lu Duoxian, the commander of the 251st Regiment, is a fool who regards money as his life and is timid and afraid of death.
How dare he do that?
There was also the shot that first attacked the head of the agency, Eijiro Takeda, which was fired by the enemy with a sniper rifle from a long distance.
If Lu Duoxian really wanted to take advantage of this surrender and handover ceremony to secretly attack the imperial forces, why did he bother to send a sniper to take the lead in defeating Eijiro Takeda?
The more Kudo thought about it, the more wrong it became. even regretted it a little, he should have held back his anger at that time and listened to Na Lu Duoxian's explanation
"Something is wrong, although the imperial army and the 251st Regiment clashed with fire this time, there should be another hidden story behind this matter, in a few days, I will send someone to hand over to the 251st Regiment and ask what is going on, and I can't live up to the last entrustment of the commander."
Kudo muttered to himself.
……
……
The battle broke out suddenly.
The devil team led the puppet army to pursue the fleeing 251st Regiment all the way, and chased them to the foot of the mountain far away from the north gate of Taiyuan City, and disappeared the 251st Regiment.
Then, as soon as the little devil reached the foot of the mountain, he was raided by Shen Quan and his party, who were ambushed in advance on the hillside.
"Hit-"
The sudden burst of fire was quite fierce, and this time, under Kong Jie's explanation, the number of light machine guns and grenadiers carried by the cavalry company was quite exaggerated.
If the cavalry company's 120-odd men and horses are divided into 12 squads, each squad has two or three light machine guns, plus one or two grenadiers.
Such a firepower configuration has completely crushed the Japanese troops at the same level.
In Kong Jie's original words: "The tactics of cavalry charging are no longer suitable for the current mode of war, and now it is more suitable for the way of cavalry infantry, and cavalry plays a role in rapid movement."
As a cavalry infantry, firepower must be replenished, heavy weapons will affect the speed of cavalry, but will drag down mobility, so a large number of light machine guns and grenadier firepower.
Surprise soldiers, they should burst out with strong firepower. ”
As soon as the battle began, more than a dozen light machine guns fired down from the hill.
The devil squad that chased after them, even if they had excellent combat literacy, was stunned for a while.
The firepower configuration of the two sides is not at the same level at all.
The devil squad that came first only had three light machine guns in their hands.
There are even more than a dozen enemies ambushed in front of them.
As soon as the battle began, the devils and puppet soldiers who charged in the front row were knocked down by more than 20 people in a few breaths.
As soon as the connoisseur makes a move, he will know if there is one.
The captain of the devil squad immediately realized the problem:
The object of the pursuit has definitely changed, which is not the performance of the 251st Regiment.
The 251st Regiment, which was in a panic, did not even have time to adjust the rearguard unit when it fled before.
How could it be possible to complete the ambush deployment at the foot of this mountain in such a short period of time?
"Bastard, retreat, retreat!"
After a short exchange of firepower, the leader of the devil squad hurriedly gave an order.
This little devil was beaten a little frightened, this opponent hiding in ambush at the foot of the mountain, not only the fire gun is strong, the marksmanship is amazing, this momentum is by no means comparable to the 251st Regiment.
He saw the men and horses who were ambushed.
Eighth route army!
No wonder the combat effectiveness shown is completely different.
The Japanese have a strong consensus on this.
Among the combat units behind enemy lines, the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army is the most terrifying and the most difficult to deal with.
Of course, this is not talking about the Eighth Route Army, but the regular combat units of the Eighth Route Army.
To put it in a simple and clear way, the intelligence analysis of the Japanese.
Comparison of the combat effectiveness of China's armed forces behind enemy lines:
The regular army of the Eighth Route Army > the Central Army> the elite of the Jin Sui Army> the miscellaneous army of the National Army.
This combat intelligence is a synthesis of the fighting will, firepower allocation, logistics support and other factors of these Chinese armed forces.
Among them, the Japanese put the will to fight of the armed forces as the first condition for judging the combat effectiveness of a unit.
In this regard, the Eighth Route Army naturally left other armed forces far behind.
In the words of some devil officers:
"Under the same circumstances, we need to send more troops to deal with the Eighth Route Army, and we must be ready to fight to the death at any time.
Because it is as difficult to count on the defeat of these Eighth Route Army, or to make them surrender on their own initiative, it is like asking the imperial soldiers to take the initiative to put down their guns and choose to surrender.
Basically, it doesn't appear.
They can even fight to the last man. ”
……
The firepower superiority shown by Shen Quan and his entourage in front of them far exceeded the Japanese army's understanding of the firepower configuration of the main force of the Eighth Route Army.
It's no wonder that this little devil ordered a retreat without falling down.
The Devil Squad Leader made up his mind and temporarily retreated, waiting for the main force of the pursuit to arrive.
But at this moment, the leader of the devil squad who had just withdrawn from the foothill area faintly heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the rear.
A devil communication soldier hurriedly ran over and reported:
"Sir, our retreat has been cut off by the Eighth Route Army!"
"Nani?"
The leader of the devil squad was shocked, and when he picked up the telescope and looked to the rear, the firepower had already been shot from the rear.
Sun Desheng and Chen Dalian, taking advantage of the confrontation between the devil and Shen Quan, smoothly led the two cavalry to the rear of the Japanese army's way of coming, cutting off the devil's retreat.
Get on the horse and ride, get off the horse and fight.
After Sun Desheng and Chen Dalian led the soldiers of the cavalry company to quickly go behind the devil's buttocks, the soldiers immediately abandoned their horses, transformed into infantry, and quickly built fortifications with the help of a gentle slope on the devil's road to attack the Japanese army from behind.
At this moment, the little devil was directly hit by the front and back.
Shen Quan noticed that the cavalry's detour was ready, and immediately raised the shell gun in his hand, fired two shots at the devil's camp, and rushed out first, shouting:
"Comrades, attack, destroy these little devils!"
"Kill—"
A series of battles, from the devil arriving at the foot of the mountain and being ambushed by Shen Quan and his party, to the devil being cut off by the cavalry company and suffering from two sides, and finally to the complete end of the battle, it took only about seven minutes before and after.
Nearly sixty devils, plus more than forty puppet soldiers, were all wiped out in the encirclement.
Then, according to Shen Quan's order, the soldiers quickly cleaned up the battlefield, and brought the captured firearms and equipment, and evacuated in time with the help of horses.
And just as Shen Quan and his party withdrew on the front foot, it didn't take long for a squadron of devils to arrive on the back foot.
But in front of their eyes, there was only the corpse of a Japanese soldier.
"Our squad seems to have been ambushed, could it be the 251st Regiment that did it?" The devil lieutenant speculated.
The leader of the devil squadron shook his head and said: "It is absolutely impossible, judging from the scene of the battle, the soldiers suffered from the front and back, and you should have noticed not far away, there are horseshoe prints, which means that the ambushed enemy has cavalry in his hands, and when the 251st Regiment arrived at the city gate, it didn't even have a horse, how could it be them?" ”
"Who would have done that?"
"I don't know, let's speed up and catch up and see."
"Hey!"
