The 1st Cavalry Brigade consists of the 13th Cavalry Wing, the 14th Cavalry Wing and the 71st Cavalry Wing.

Each cavalry wing has four cavalry squadrons, machine gun squadrons, and cavalry artillery squadrons.

In addition, there are brigades and regiments directly under the combat team, the 1st Cavalry Artillery Wing, the Engineer Brigade and the Baggage Brigade.

However, because the 1st Cavalry Brigade was sent to reinforce Taiyuan, only three cavalry wings came, and the brigade directly under the combat convoy, the 1st Cavalry Wing and other troops did not come.

The 13th Cavalry Wing was almost completely wiped out in the battle near Niangzi Pass, and after regrouping, it suffered more than half of the casualties in the last Battle of Xinzhou.

So.

At present, the strength of the 1st Cavalry Brigade in the Xinzhou Basin is more than 3,000 cavalry, and there is a large area of Wuyang, like an earthy yellow tide.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, are you attacking?"

The commander of the 13th Cavalry Wing, Yuo Nishizawa, asked again.

But.

Kuribayashi Tadamichi did not answer, but carefully observed the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army opposite with a telescope.

In the field of vision of the telescope, you can even see the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army spitting fire in their eyes and the fierce expression on their faces, with awe-inspiring killing intent.

Just from the killing intent emanating from the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army, Kuribayashi Tadamichi judged that this was a Chinese cavalry whose combat effectiveness and courage were no less than that of the elite cavalry wing of the Japanese army.

The commander of the 14th Cavalry Wing on the side, Hisashi Oshima, saw that Kuribayashi Tadamichi was slow to make a decision.

Riding a horse to Kuribayashi Tadamichi's side, he said, "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army is only about 1,500 cavalry, and our cavalry has more than 3,300 cavalry. ”

"3300 beats 1500, we have a big advantage."

"Even if the swords of the enemy cavalry are longer than ours, they will definitely not make up for the disadvantage."

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, this is an excellent opportunity for our 1st Cavalry Brigade to eliminate the new cavalry of the Eighth Route Army!"

Hearing Oshima Hisunao say this, Kuribayashi Tadamichi suddenly felt a little excited.

Now is indeed a good opportunity to eliminate the new cavalry regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

If Kuribayashi Tadamichi hadn't suffered a big loss under Li Yunlong last time, then he would definitely have ordered the 1st Cavalry Brigade to rush forward and destroy the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army in front of him.

However, the last time Kuribayashi Tadamichi led the more combat-effective Kuritashi detachment, they were all defeated by Li Yunlong and a new regiment.

Will it be another trap this time?

Yuo Nishizawa saw Kuribayashi's concerns, and also said: "The mules and military horses of the Eighth Route Army carrying anti-aircraft weapons will definitely not go fast, and the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army will definitely be broken." ”

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, please give the order to attack!"

"Let the dragoons of the Great Japanese Empire cut off the heads of the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side and build a Jingguan!"

Kuribayashi Tadamichi's eyes narrowed slightly, his right hand was raised high, and he said coldly and loudly:

"Order, retreat!"

Yuo Nishizawa and Hisunao Oshima couldn't help but look at each other.

"Nani?"

"Retreat?"

"Huh?" Kuribayashi Tadamichi's cold eyes swept over, "Can't you understand Japanese?" ”

"Hey!"

Yuo Nishizawa and Hisunao Oshima hurriedly bowed their heads, and then rode towards their respective cavalry wings.

Under the orders of the captains of each wing, the devil cavalry turned their horses one after another and moved in the direction of Taiyuan.

Kuribayashi Tadamichi glanced deeply at the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army opposite, turned his horse and left.

Although Kuribayashi Tadamichi has only fought Li Yunlong once.

But Li Yunlong's cunning left an indelible impression on him.

How could a person as captured as Li Yunlong be able to send his cavalry, and more than 1,500 cavalry, to death here?

Then there is only one possibility.

It's definitely a trap.

Behind the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army, there were definitely hundreds of light and heavy machine guns, and it was even very likely that Li Yunlong ordered the anti-aircraft firepower to be put out.

This time.

Kuribayashi Tadamichi, the old devil, saw through Li Yunlong's tactics.

Kuribayashi Tadamichi, who was able to inflict nearly 30,000 U.S. casualties on Iwo Jima, still has something.

The 1st Cavalry Brigade was subordinate to the Mongolian Army, and there was no need to lose it here for the sake of the 1st Army.

In the cavalry formation of the Eighth Route Army.

Li Yunlong was wearing a black leather jacket, riding on a sweaty horse, looking at the back of the devil cavalry army with a telescope, he couldn't help but flatten his mouth, and said in a disdainful tone:

"Kuribayashi Tadado, this old devil, is really fucking boring, not a man."

"More than 3,000 to 1,500, what do you say he runs?"

As Li Yunlong spoke, he looked at the three battalion commanders beside him, Zhang Dabiao, He Jie and Gao Tianyi.

Zhang Dabiao and the three of them were all a little disappointed.

Pity......

If the devils rush over, let the machine guns and anti-aircraft fire sweep a wave first, and then let the cavalry rush up to harvest the corn.

Not to mention that it can completely annihilate the 1st Brigade of the Japanese Cavalry, it can also kill at least half of the devil's cavalry.

Outcome.

The devil cavalry had no intention of fighting a decisive battle at all, and they didn't even try to attack, and the two cavalry battalions of the new regiment swung like this, and the devil cavalry turned around and ran away.

At this time.

Cao Jiang and Ma Renxing, the commanders of the two cavalry battalions, shouted to Li Yunlong on the walkie-talkie, whether to pursue the enemy cavalry?

"Pass my orders."

"Retreat!"

Li Yunlong gave an order to the walkie-talkie.

With Li Yunlong's order, the battalions of the new regiment also began to retreat, and the cavalry was still broken.

……

The next day.

Li Yunlong had already returned to the northwest of Shanxi by car.

After breakfast, Li Yunlong was on the kang and was about to squint for a while.

Wang Dehou held the telegram in his hand, walked into the regiment headquarters quickly, and said to Li Yunlong in a happy tone:

"Regiment commander, just now Boss Chen sent a telegram saying that the Japanese army observation group, including Gu Shoufu, was wiped out."

If it was business, Chen Fengfeng used a walkie-talkie to make an appointment with Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and others.

In the radio intercom, Chen Feng and Li Yunlong have a tacit understanding and absolutely do not talk about important things.

Although Chen Feng's base was not far from Dagu Town, Chen Feng didn't want Li Yunlong and them to know where he was, so there was no phone line between them.

And Chen Feng didn't want to make a personal trip because of this, so he asked Yan Shuangying to send a telegram to Xinyi.

Li Yunlong suddenly stopped sleepy when he heard this, and reluctantly stood up.

"Telegram, show me."

Taking the telegram from Xing Zhiguo's hand, Li Yunlong looked at it quickly, and a smile gradually climbed up to Grand Master Li's face, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth became wider and wider.

Zhao Gang went down to the troops, and Xing Zhiguo was busy at the airport.

In addition to what Wang Dehou said, the content of the telegram also included the time of receipt, which was set at noon three days later.

The northwest and southeast of Shanxi received goods almost at the same time.

The receiving location in the southeast of Shanxi is at Yangcun Airport, and the receiving location in the northwest of Shanxi is in Dagu Town.

"Hahaha......"

After reading the telegram, Li Yunlong couldn't help laughing, and finally didn't work in vain.

Since the information came out of Boss Chen, it can't be wrong.

In the North China Front Headquarters, there are intelligence officers of Boss Chen, who can obtain first-hand intelligence information.

This battle, at a negligible cost, earned 32 203-mm heavy howitzers.

It's bloody.

The corners of Wang Dehou's mouth couldn't help but curl slightly: "Regiment Commander, do you want to stop sending a clear code telegram to thank the transportation captain Okamura Ningji for providing us with information?" ”

A lieutenant general, two major generals and several big lefts, as well as three devil planes were shot down.

For this loss, Wang Dehou estimated that the devil was already angry at this time.

At this time, another clear-code telegram was sent to provoke Okamura Ningji, which made Okamura Ningji vomit blood in anger.

Of course.

That is, Wang Dehou didn't know the contradiction between Okamura Ningji and Gu Shoufu, so he had this idea.

Wang Dehou can be sure that when this clear-code telegram is sent, Okamura Ningji will definitely be extremely uncomfortable.

"What kind of telegram did you send?" Grand Master Li showed a wicked smile.

Seeing Li Yunlong's expression, Wang Dehou knew that Grand Master Li was going to make a fuss again.

"Commander, don't invent code telegraphs." Wang Dehou asked, "Then what shall we send?" ”

"Hey, hey......" Li Yunlong said with a smile at the corner of his mouth, "Let's send two telegrams this time, one in clear code and one in encrypted code, but the content of this encrypted telegram must be deciphered by the devils." ”

"What does a clear telegram send?" Wang Dehou looked stunned and asked.

Li Yunlong smiled again and said: "The telegram will be sent in clear code, this time the shooting down of the plane of the Japanese observation group was done by the new regiment of our Eighth Route Army, and our new regiment is responsible for the attack. ”

"Then I know what the encrypted telegram is sending." Wang Dehou also smiled and said, "We deliberately used the previous password to send a telegram to the headquarters, just say that it was the information provided by Okamura Ningji, killed Gu Shoufu and the observation group, and let the devils decipher the content of the telegram." ”

"That's right!" Li Yunlong said happily, "That's my idea, Chief of Staff, hurry up and draft a telegram." ”

"That's right."

"Remember to use the current password to send a good news to the headquarters, and inform the head of the headquarters that three days later at Yangcun Airport will be ready to receive the goods, 16 heavy howitzers and 250 tons of weapons and ammunition."

Li Yunlong instructed again.

Gushofu is worth 24 heavy howitzers, two major generals are worth 8 heavy howitzers, and several big left and several left officers are worth 500 tons of weapons and ammunition.

Last time, Chen Feng confirmed the price with Li Yunlong again.

Take out an ordinary lieutenant general division commander for 12 heavy howitzers.

Take out a commander like Yoshio Iwamatsu for 24 heavy howitzers, and take out a general like Okamura Ninji for 36 heavy howitzers.

"Yes!"

Wang Dehou hurriedly drafted three telegrams, and after reading them, Li Yunlong had no problem, signed his name, and then handed them to the telegraph soldiers.

Half an hour later, Wang Dehou walked in quickly and said to Li Yunlong: "Commander, three telegrams have been sent. ”

Hehe, with a smile, Li Yunlong nodded and said, "Very good, now let's see how Okamura Ningji explains to the Heavenly Locust of the Dog Day." ”

"Now Okamura Ningji is yellow mud and falls off the crotch of his pants." Wang Dehou also smiled, "It's not, it's." ”

Looking at Li Yunlong, Wang Dehou's eyes showed a hint of admiration.

Last time.

Li Yunlong was the inventor of the coded telegraph, and openly ridiculed Okamura Ningji as the captain of the transportation brigade of the Eighth Route Army.

This time, Li Yunlong used an encrypted telegram that could be deciphered, saying that it was information provided by Okamura Ninji, which was undoubtedly more clever.

Wang Dehou couldn't help but sigh, there were too many operations in the head of the regiment, right?
