Chapter Twenty-Five: Never Back Down (Ask for the First Order!) )

Counting the wounded, a total of thirty people remained to take charge of the aftermath.

The first wave of pursuing enemies is likely to have cavalry with speed advantage and strong mobility.

In the past, because of the lack of ammunition, the Eighth Route Army often could only put them closer when facing the devil cavalry, and only fired at a position where the hit rate could be guaranteed.

But at that time, with the speed of a war horse, it would soon be able to rush to the faces of the warriors.

The cavalry, which gradually entered the state of sprinting, could run in about 12-15 seconds for a distance of 200 meters.

What happens to infantry lacking heavy firepower when they are close to cavalry? Li Yunlong has the most say in this matter, and he encountered this kind of battle back then.

People who have not experienced that kind of battle cannot understand the feeling of oppression. Seeing the saber approaching his neck, the speed of fire of the big bolt in his hand was too slow to stop it.

After being close to the cavalry, even if he was not killed by a saber blow, the weight of the war horse could kill the infantry with the blessing of speed, and the most painful end was to be trampled to death by the galloping war horse in the battle.

Considering these factors, the spy company left twenty-five submachine guns for the broken soldiers. Coupled with the original two crooked machine guns and the 38 big covers in their team, the firepower network formed by these weapons was enough for the devil's cavalry to drink a pot.

Such a firepower configuration can be said to be a poor version of Sandezi's storm assault platoon.

And in the interdiction war, the grenade is also an indispensable weapon.

Before departure, the soldiers of the special service company carried at least five grenades each, and used almost 30 grenades in the attack on the dormitory of the Devil's Hospital, and another 30 in the ambush on the way back.

In order to provide as much support as possible to the broken soldiers, Zheng Yingqi ordered his comrades to leave a full 400 grenades.

Coupled with that 60mm mortar, the devil didn't want to break through this line of defense easily.

Time was pressing, and after handing over the weapons, Zheng Yingqi and Li Yunlong led the rested soldiers to prepare to set off.

Looking at these comrades-in-arms who volunteered to stay behind and break off, the soldiers of the special service company had mixed feelings.

"Salute!"

——————————————

After the spy company left, Zhang Zhiyi and his brothers chose a section of the valley that was easy to defend and difficult to attack and began to prepare for battle.

Because he wasn't sure when the devil would catch up, he only dared to let his brothers build an improvised position. Otherwise, if the devil is halfway busy, it will be tantamount to wasting his physical strength.

Landmines must be prepared, and a grenade with a wooden handle in your hand can be turned into a powerful mine. In order to prevent the big guys from appearing, they also made several cluster grenades and handed them to the most powerful fighters.

After arranging these, Zhang Zhiyi began to distribute firepower and personally instructed the soldiers to clear the shooting area.

In order for the soldiers to be able to effectively aim and shoot within the shooting range, it is necessary to clear obstacles and vegetation within the shooting range, which is a skill that everyone in the team must master.

"The machine gun crew comes with me, your position is here. Face the intersection ahead and keep those damn little devils out of the way. ”

"Xiao Ding, come here, your shooting range is the crooked neck in front of you to the big rock."

"Lao Liu, your location is from the corner to the small tree over there."

"Brothers, hurry up and clear the shooting realm! Don't expose yourself to your place because of carelessness and excessive cleaning! Remember to clean up the branches and weeds that have been removed, and be careful of being seen by the devils! Don't leave any traces, in case you are found by the devil, you will be passive! ”

When he had finished speaking, he took the two brothers who passed by him, and said to them:

"The two of you, go to the intersection in front of you to serve as an outpost, and when you see the devil, hurry back and report! The devil will come from that direction, make no mistake! ”

Looking at the people who carried out his orders in an orderly manner, Zhang Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief, and he called Liang Chunjin, who was second only to him in the team.

"Lao Liang, you come with me, let's go find a reserve position!"

Liang Chunjin is the Sichuan army in the team, his thin body is like a gust of wind can blow him away, he is a little not optimistic.

"It's too temporary, and the positions haven't been organized. The improvised position is not enough, and it will definitely be a tough battle next. ”

About an hour later, a squadron of devil cavalry arrived from a distance. Because the pace of the infantry was so slow, they were already thrown away by the cavalry, and they were almost three kilometers behind.

The cavalry squadron leader Ryoichi Maeda took the lead, and behind him, more than a hundred devil cavalry galloped along the main road, and they were falling into the ambush circle prepared by Zhang Zhiyi little by little.

As soon as the devil appeared, the two soldiers at the outpost immediately ran back to report the news, and everyone picked up their rifles and prepared to attack.

Ryoichi Maeda, who entered the valley, waved his horsewhip and kept urging the military horses under his crotch to speed up, and his squadron had just passed the coordinates given by the army aviation.

He squinted his eyes, and the fierce light was revealed.

Because of the hurry, the entire squadron went into battle lightly. All of them carried only the ancestral thirty-two cavalry sabers and cavalry guns, not even the gun oil cans.

So at the moment there is not a single unit that is faster than their cavalry squadron, and the credit must be his, and no one can take it.

Suddenly, a bullet flew almost in his face. The squad leader behind him burst out of his chest with a burst of blood, and after being shot, he fell straight from his horse.

At the same time, another cavalryman behind him was shot in the head with a rifle and died instantly. Judging from the wound, it is still a self-produced 38 cap.

According to the information provided by Lu Airlines, the other party obviously has less than a squadron, and it dares to ambush them!

The devil's cavalry is an aristocratic soldier, and a large part of the officers are from noble backgrounds, Zhang Zhiyi's behavior is simply an insult to himself in his eyes! This made him furious.

And they do have strength to be proud of, just through the sound of gunfire and the fireworks emitted by the barrels, Maeda Ryoichi immediately discovered the location of the fighters.

This arrogant devil nobleman drew his thirty-two-year-old cavalry saber and attacked the enemy's position in front of him on the right.

Behind him, the devil soldiers followed closely behind their squadron leader, and none of them showed timidity.

"Full speed sprint!"

"Attack forward!"

During the charge, the devil cavalry sat on horseback and leaned forward slightly to minimize the possibility of being hit, while holding their sabers aloft.

At this time, the two light machine guns on the position opened fire at the same time, and at this time, the devils could not go up or down, and they could not stop or stop, so they could only continue to charge.

They speed up with their whips, thinking that if they can get closer, they can make the ambushers pay.

The distance between him and the enemy was reduced by less than half, and his side suffered more than 20 casualties, which made it difficult for Maeda Ryoichi to accept.

The biggest advantage of cavalry is speed, shooting objects moving at high speed, even for veterans is not easy.

But Zhang Zhiyi has fought so many battles large and small, and his marksmanship has long been incomparable to ordinary people. He was lying in a hidden position, and every bullet in his hand could effectively hit. Sometimes it's a man, sometimes it's a horse.

When the devil cavalry was still one hundred and twenty meters away from the position, there were more than ten devils named by Zhang Zhiyi.

No Step Back!

Ask for the first order, ask for the first order, I will continue to write!
