That same evening.

Sun Desheng took the cavalry battalion to the vicinity of Lujiazhuang Station of the Zhengtai Railway.

Although the cavalry battalion has just been expanded, the new recruits to the cavalry battalion are all elite veterans.

The new cavalry's ability to fight on horseback, such as horse shooting and saber slashing, will be less effective on horseback.

However, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers dismounted and fought was first-class.

Moreover, the Eighth Route Army was tightly organized, and even if it had just been expanded, the combat effectiveness of the troops would not be affected much.

The newly promoted officers at the company and platoon level are all veterans of the new regiment who have performed well for more than one year, have rich combat experience, and all know a little bit of culture, and can read maps and lead troops.

This is where Li Yunlong's confidence lies in the fact that as soon as the new regiment was expanded, he dared to send the cavalry battalion out to engage in side business.

The devil's sappers, Taiyuan direction to Yangquan direction to rebuild the railway, the speed has been quickly repaired to Shouyang County.

Lujiazhuang Station was conquered and destroyed by the 385th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army in the Zhengtai Battle of the Hundred Regiments.

This section of the railway has been rebuilt by the devil sappers, and the railway station has also been rebuilt.

In order to prevent the repaired railway from being sabotaged by the Eighth Route guerrillas, the devil sent the cavalry battalion of the 2nd Division of the puppet army to Lujiazhuang Station to garrison.

Wherever the railroad was sabotaged by the guerrillas, the cavalry battalion of the puppet army immediately rushed there.

Although it is a puppet army cavalry battalion, the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army do not dare to provoke easily, and the puppet army cavalry also has a strong pursuit ability.

There has been no Eighth Route guerrilla force to harass the nearby railway.

On this cold day, the cavalry battalion of the puppet army also shrank in the Lujiazhuang railway station and did not come out.

500 meters away from Lujiazhuang Station, Sun Desheng lay in the snow and held a telescope to observe for a while.

Through the telescope, in the lighted stables, several puppet soldiers were feeding the horses.

Sun Desheng's tone was disdainful: "Such a good military horse, put it in the hands of this group of two devils, it's really a fucking waste, a company commander, take someone to catch a tongue for Lao Tzu and come back." ”

Although he really wanted to lead his troops to rush into the train station immediately, destroy the puppet army, and take the military horses away.

However, Sun Desheng did not forget the instructions of Political Commissar Zhao, not to mention that even if there was no instructions from Political Commissar Zhao, Sun Desheng would not have fought without understanding the situation, and rushed into this kind of battle in a daze.

"Yes, Battalion Commander!"

Cao Jiang, the commander of the first company, personally ordered a few scout cavalry, and soon disappeared into the night.

About half an hour later, Cao Jiang returned with a few scout soldiers, several of whom were carrying a sack with a tongue in it.

Cao Jiang and the scout soldiers put the sack in front of Sun Desheng, and when they opened the sack, a puppet army who was tied up by five flowers was immediately revealed.

Li Dagen was patrolling with the squad leader, and when he was pulling the, he was covered with a sack.

Cao Jiang, the commander of the first company, and several scout soldiers are all elite veterans who have followed Li Yunlong for two years, and they are good at kidnapping tickets and beating sticks.

Li Dagen looked at the front of him, and several Eighth Route soldiers with crazy killing intent in their eyes knelt in the snow with their feet soft, kowtowing frantically: "Eighth Master spare your life, Eighth Master spare your life!" ”

"I am old and young, and without me at home, my mother and daughter will not be able to live."

"I'll give the emperor... The devil worked hard, just to support his family, Wow, I have never done anything that hurt heaven and reason, and I have never killed the Eighth Route Army. ”

"Chinese do not kill Chinese..."

At this moment, Li Dagen thought of at least 100 reasons to beg for mercy, and his voice stopped abruptly until a German mirrored box was pressed against his head.

"One more nonsense, Lao Tzu will give you a peanut."

Sun Desheng's tone was cold: "I ask you to answer, dare to have half a lie, and give you two peanuts." ”

"It's... Be. Although the weather was more than 20 degrees below zero, Li Dagen was scared and sweated, and he knew that Balu really dared to shoot.

"Which unit are you from?" Sun Desheng asked.

"Cavalry Battalion of the 2nd Independent Division of the Imperial Allied Army."

"Are there any devils in the train station?"

"Yes, there are two devils, both cavalry." Li Dagen said, "It's the instructor sent to our cavalry battalion by the devils. ”

"How many machine guns are there? Are there any heavy machine guns? ”

"There were 9 light machine guns, no heavy machine guns."

"Is there a cannon?"

"No cannons."

"Where's the nearest devil?"

"Dongzhao Railway Station, more than 20 miles away from here, there is a devil squadron there, and then there is Shouyang County, where there is a devil brigade."

Sun Desheng nodded, it is 20 kilometers away from Shouyang County and 10 kilometers away from Dongzhao Railway Station.

The sound of gunfire can't be heard that far, and as long as the telephone line is cut, it is impossible for the devil to receive the news.

The Battle of Zhengtai destroyed all the strongholds of the railroad and the devils on both sides of the railway, and in such a short period of time, it was already the limit that the devils could rebuild the railway, and they didn't repair all the turrets and strongholds so quickly.

Seeing this, Li Dagen hurriedly said: "The devil has two telephone wires, one on the telephone pole and one buried in the ground, I know where the telephone line buried in the ground is, I can take you to find it." ”

"Is there a bunker at the train station?" Sun Desheng asked sharply.

"Yes, there are two bunkers."

"Very well, now draw the location of the gun tower, bunker and bunker of the railway station." Sun Desheng said.

The puppet army did not dare to play tricks, not only explained everything, drew the location of the gun tower, pillbox and dark fort of the railway station, but also pointed out the retreat left by the puppet army.

At that moment, Sun Desheng asked several scouts to take Li Dagen to cut off the devil's light and dark telephone lines.

Then quickly arranged the combat mission, ordered 3 companies to attack head-on, 2 companies to cut off the retreat of the puppet army after circling, and 1 company as a reserve.

At this time, the puppet army had already found that there were fewer people, and sent a cavalry squad to follow the footprints in the snow to find it.

The cavalry soldiers of the cavalry battalion immediately greeted them, and when they heard a large number of cavalry rushing towards them, the puppet cavalry were so frightened that they turned around and ran.

As soon as the shots rang out, the raid was no longer possible.

However, fortunately, the speed of the cavalry was very fast, and in less than a few minutes, the soldiers of the two cavalry companies in charge of the broken rear had already arrived at the designated position.

The soldiers who attacked the railway station head-on quickly used Bazooka to destroy the station's turrets, pillboxes, and bunkers.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the puppet soldiers were frightened and prepared to flee from the rear, and the fighters of the two companies after the break had already attacked.

Under the attack from both sides, the two devil instructors were killed not long after, and the puppet soldiers suddenly lost the courage to resist and surrendered obediently.

The puppet army surrendered too quickly, and the battle ended in less than 10 minutes.

At present, in fact, there is a tacit understanding between the puppet army and the Eighth Route Army.

When the battle is unfavorable, unless it is the devil who is pointing a gun at the back, the puppet army almost all put guns indiscriminately.

After the Eighth Route Army captured the puppet army, it was determined that it was a hardcore traitor and an unforgivable crime, and the puppet soldiers were generally educated and released.

The puppet soldiers know that surrender will not die, and who will fight to the death?

Without superfluous nonsense, Sun Desheng asked the soldiers to lead the captured military horses, and the captured military horses carried supplies and quickly left the fire station.

Only a group of puppet soldiers were left shivering in the cold wind.

The puppet soldiers who lost their horses, weapons and equipment and supplies know that this is going to be known to the devils, and they will definitely have no good fruit to eat.

At the moment, they all dispersed in a hurry.

……

Li Yunlong was reading and studying at the regiment headquarters when he heard the neighing of military horses outside, and guessed that it was the cavalry battalion that had returned.

As he expected, a moment later, Sun Desheng's voice sounded outside the door: "Report!" ”

"Come in!" Li Yunlong put the book under the pillow and said to the door.

"Captain!" As soon as Sun Desheng walked in, he snapped a military salute.

"How's it going?"

"How many good things did you get?"

Grand Master Li hurriedly asked, speaking a little fast, indicating that he was looking forward to it.

After all, Grand Master Li's favorite thing is to make a fortune, and a cavalry battalion is not a small fortune.

Although he planned to hand over this cavalry battalion to the brigade commander, it did not prevent him from getting rich.

"Report to the head of the group."

"312 military horses, 293 rifles, 310 three-two sabers, 5 light machine guns, 11 pistols, and more than 20,000 rounds of ammunition were seized."

"In addition, more than 20,000 catties of grain and more than 70,000 catties of military horse concentrate feed were seized."

Sun Desheng knew his own head of the regiment, so he picked out important reports as soon as he came up.

"Not bad!" Grand Master Li looked satisfied, "How about the enemy killed and casualties?" ”

Sun Desheng replied: "A total of 2 devils have been annihilated, 32 puppet soldiers have been killed, and 5 people have been wounded in the cavalry battalion. ”

Most of the dead puppet soldiers were killed by rockets in the turrets and pillboxes.

Surround the railway station, blow up the pillboxes and artillery towers, and bombard them with mortars, and the puppet army will lay down their arms and surrender.

"Well done!" Li Yunlong praised with a smile, "Your cavalry battalion is considered to be a no-brainer this time, and you have lost nothing, and you have earned the equipment of a cavalry battalion for nothing." ”

"The main thing is that the information is accurate." Sun Desheng said with a smile.

After a pause, Sun Desheng said: "By the way, head of the regiment, there is something I have to report to you." ”

"There are many soldiers who have reported that this rifle used by our cavalry now feels a bit heavy when shooting on horseback."

"And after the bullet is finished, the magazine will automatically pop up, and the infantry can retrieve the magazine, but when the cavalry finishes firing the bullet in the pursuit or transfer, the magazine will not be recovered, or our cavalry battalion will use the devil's four-four rifle rifle?"

The weight of the Japanese army's Type 44 rifle is 3.3 kg, while the weight of the M1 Garand rifle currently equipped by the 1st Cavalry Battalion is 4.37 kg, which is a full 2 kg heavier.

Although the firepower was strong, the cavalry encountered some problems when using it.

Li Yunlong thought about it, the cavalry soldier was holding a semi-automatic gun weighing nearly 9 pounds, and he had to take care of riding a horse, which was indeed a bit unsuitable.

nodded and said: "The situation you reported is very good, if there is a problem, you have to report it in time, otherwise it will be too late when there is a problem." ”

Although the rate of fire of the Garand rifle is very high, after all, the weight is there, and the cavalry will definitely be easier to be soft when they hold it on horseback for a long time.

Li Yunlong said: "In this way, this Garand semi-automatic rifle will be used by your cavalry battalion first, and I will find a way." ”

"Yes!" Sun Desheng turned around and walked out.

After Sun Desheng left, Li Yunlong walked to the cabinet and dialed the phone number of the brigade headquarters.

When the brigade commander picked up the phone, the two exchanged a few words, and Li Yunlong said with a smile on the phone: "Brigade commander, you have made a fortune!" ”
