Chapter Eighty-Eight: White Horse? He will not come back
After dealing with the brutes chased out of the airport, the new second regiment began to retreat in an orderly manner according to the original arrangement.
In order to carry out this mission, the comrades brought a large number of weapons and ammunition with them when they came to Taiyuan, which for a time affected the normal marching speed.
After a fairly fierce battle, everyone marched lightly, and it took almost half a day to reach the defense area of the new 10th Brigade and the Third Column of the Decisive Death.
"Regiment commander, more than a hundred devil cavalry have come out from the direction of Taiyuan City, and it is expected that they will enter the woods in ten minutes, and they have not seen trucks and three jumpers yet."
The platoon commander of the reconnaissance platoon responsible for the break said with a portable communicator.
After hearing the news, Li Yunlong almost laughed. The density of trees used for concealment by the new second regiment in the past few days is very high, and some areas are not exposed to the sun at noon, and they are lush and green.
The biggest advantage of cavalry is that it is highly mobile, and speed is the most important thing no matter who you fight with. This means that there must be no obstacles in the combat area, otherwise the horse will not be able to accelerate sufficiently.
And the horse is not stupid, there are trees and it will not hit. But where horses can pass, people may be swept down.
If the devil's cavalry dared to pass through the woods, the moment they came out would be their time of death.
If you want to take a detour, you will have to delay it for at least half an hour. When the time comes, let alone the pursuit, I'm afraid I won't even be able to see a single hair of Li Yunlong.
"Just more than a hundred cavalry? Yoshio Shinozuka's brain is in water? ”
"Is this old devil on the top? Submachine guns and mortars have been seen by Xiao Ri, and they dare to send pure cavalry to chase after them? ”
Speaking of this, Grand Master Li seemed to have thought of something interesting. I saw him turn around and point to the woods with his right index finger, and then said domineeringly:
"Since they are here to die, then we must fulfill the devils! White horse? Hum? He will never come back! ”
The second monk was confused, and Wei Dayong asked a little embarrassedly: "Commander, how do you know that the devil cavalry is a white horse?" Do you see? ”
"Go, go, Koji doesn't even know! How many times have I told you to read more books, why don't you listen! Learn more from me! ”
In fact, Yoshio Shinozuka also wants to send more people to pursue, but he doesn't have many troops at his disposal. After the battle between Yuci and Liaoxian began, he had already sent a wing of soldiers to support.
Taiyuan, as the headquarters of the First Army, had to leave at least two brigades to defend.
Originally, this old devil wanted to rely on mobile troops to follow the "Jin Sui Army", and then find an opportunity to cooperate with the strongholds along the road to kill the enemy.
But the casualties at the airport made him dizzy, and the foolishness of his subordinates caused the current situation.
Then it's time for the ambush.
Although with the firepower of the three battalions and the artillery company, it is completely possible to eat the devil cavalry, after all, a large number of submachine guns are known as cavalry killers.
But ambush warfare is a tactic engraved in the bones of all soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, and there is naturally no need to bother with things that can be easily handled.
Under the orders of Grand Master Li, everyone left some traces unintentionally. This will neither let the devil cavalry be lost, nor will it make them suspicious.
This time when they came to Taiyuan to carry out the mission, the new second regiment did their homework. Not only did various unexpected factors be taken into account, but corresponding measures and plans were prepared, and the cavalry was naturally included in them.
In order to deal with the pursuit of the cavalry, Grand Master Li specially made a few packets of chili noodles. Hao Hao Lao Xi not only loves to be jealous, but also does not reject chili peppers.
For this thing, he ran two villages and used a full ten pounds of pork, which would be his secret weapon against the enemy.
Fifteen minutes later, the devil cavalry came out of the woods in disarray. Judging from their flustered appearance, they must have suffered a lot.
Yoshio Shinozuka gave a death order, so that this cavalry squadron must bite the fleeing "Jin Sui Army".
And according to the analysis of the shells and the time of the battle, the number of opposing sides should not be very large. Therefore, these 134 devils, knowing that the terrain was unfavorable to themselves, still followed the footprints and got into the woods.
When the leader of the devil cavalry squadron was about to observe the situation outside the woods, Le Zhengdou pulled out the explosives package that had been buried in advance.
The devil on the war horse didn't even react to anything, and was blown to pieces without warning.
Several huge explosions directly killed more than a dozen devils and military horses, and the severed limbs of people and horses flew everywhere.
Then a gray powder mist spread nearby, and in a short time all the cavalry was enveloped.
The powder mist was choking and spicy, wafting into the eyes of people and horses, so hot that people and horses screamed. They sneezed one after the other, snot and tears all over their faces.
Coincidentally, the wind direction at this time is northwesterly.
The horses of the little day are very smart, and they try to rush out of the area against the wind. And the devil on horseback can only squint his eyes and try to control the panicked horses.
Since the day the new Second Regiment was founded, the fighters have not had a hard time.
With a submachine gun in hand and plenty of ammunition, the previous tactic of putting the cavalry closer to fight is simply not possible.
The two sides were separated by nearly 700 meters, and when they saw the devil's war horse rushing forward uncontrollably, Grand Master Li ordered the battle to begin!
"Six hundred meters! The machine gun crew fired! ”
"Pillars! Shoot me! ”
At the moment, this distance is not yet at the effective range of the MAS-36, so there is no need to shoot blindly to expose the distribution of firepower.
Six light machine guns came out of the improvised trenches, and with the sapper shovels, the speed of the soldiers' earthwork was directly doubled, and they could do the work of the previous half hour in ten minutes.
But this level of firepower inflicted limited damage on the Devil Cavalry, with only a dozen enemies falling from their horses to the ground.
"Four hundred meters! Hit me with a rifle! ”
With the addition of more than a hundred rifles, the firepower of the new second regiment has stalled the momentum of the "charge" of the devil cavalry, but their position is no longer allowed to retreat.
The Devil Squadron Leader barely got rid of the influence of Chili peppers, and saw the wolf-like enemy in front of him.
At this moment, he was directly ruthless, pulled out his 32-year-old cavalry saber and began to charge seriously, trying to rush to the position of the new second regiment and kill.
Behind him, his subordinates also followed closely behind their squadron leader, and none of them showed timidity.
"It's dark and the card is loaded!"
The cavalry sprinted at such a fast speed that even after a short trek of horsepower, it took only 15 seconds to reach a distance of 200 meters. But when there were still 200 meters to the new 2nd Regiment, only half of the soldiers remained.
"Submachine guns! All fire! ”
Now it has reached the effective range of the MAS-38, not to mention that the devil is still advancing, and the distance between the two sides is constantly narrowing.
Seeing that the devil was about to approach the position, Grand Master Li led the soldiers to poke their bodies out of the temporary bunker slightly.
They didn't care about the enemy's bullets, after all, they couldn't open all their eyes, and they couldn't shoot on horseback.
The French metal storm completely tore through the enemy's body.
No cavalry could rush to the infantry that had been prepared and had great firepower without being superior in numbers and losing their speed advantage.
Dozens of devils turned on their backs, and after firing three submachine gun magazines, only one horse came alone in front of the position of the new second regiment.
After the battle, Grand Master Li came out of the makeshift trench. He took the horse, which had remained a little bewildered, and then said to the warriors:
"Clean up the battlefield! If you don't have enough bullets, pick up a riding gun! You can also take two crooked handles! ”
"We'll be back in three minutes! Hurry up, hurry up! “
On the next way back, the new second regiment carefully came to the defense area of the friendly army, and did not encounter any devils along the way.
On 24 September, through a nationwide spy network and intelligence organizations, the news of the bombardment of Taiyuan Airport by the "Jin Sui Army" spread throughout the country.
This news is even more exciting than the Eighth Route Army's launch of the second phase of the Hundred Regiments Battle, after all, most of the high-level people know that the attitude of the commander of the Second Theater of Operations towards Xiaori is somewhat ambiguous.
Not only the bald head, but even the seven and a half and the commander of the guard felt that the sun was coming out of the west.
