The Japanese have been defeated, and the battalion commander said that the rest will be left to the cavalry platoon.
"Damn it, it's finally our cavalry platoon's turn to play the leading role!"
He always watched his comrades in the infantry and artillery kill Japanese soldiers, and the cavalry platoon used sabers to cut down people every day. This made the arrogant Ma Shuai very unhappy.
They all say, "The emperor takes turns to fight. Come to my house today." The cavalry platoon finally made it to this day. The horse commander excitedly pulled out his saber and threw out a sword flower coquettishly.
It is true that humans are like tigers, horses are like dragons, and swords are like rainbows...
The sample sold well, so he gathered enough energy and shouted loudly:
"Cavalry platoon, attack!"
Suddenly the horse's hooves rolled, and the billowing iron stream rushed towards the Japanese.
The cavalry formed a spear formation, and the horse commanders rushed to the front, one man and one horse, like Changshan Zhao Zilong!
The appearance of the cavalry caused the Japanese to completely collapse. They only regretted that their parents had given them two legs, because two legs could not run as fast as four legs.
Ma Shuai caught up with a bandit-legged Japanese. When he heard the rumble of horse hooves behind him, his courage was almost scared out of his mind, and he shouted loudly:
"Amaterasu, save me!"
Ma Shuai, one man and one horse, flashed past him. He raised the sharp saber in his hand, and a big head flew out.
In this China, Amaterasu is not easy to use!
Ma Shuai doesn't like to chop, but likes to open his hand at a 45-degree angle. When the horse passes by the devil's hand, he only needs to let the saber pass across the devil's neck, lift it up slightly - and cut off a dog's head. Came down.
Compared with Ma Shuai who likes to cut off the heads of Japanese soldiers, Liu Rufeng prefers to chop them. He raised his sharp saber high and lifted the reins. The horse under his seat jumped directly over the head of a little devil, which made the little devil scream. :
"Mommy mommy……"
Liu Rufeng swung his saber fiercely and struck the little devil right on the neck, cutting off the neck and skin as well. He rolled on the ground several times before he stopped.
Even calling mom doesn’t work!
Although the cavalry platoon only had 80 people, it was very efficient in killing Japanese soldiers. The saber cut off countless dog heads. Ma Shuai alone cut off nine dog heads, which was enough to satisfy his addiction to killing Japanese soldiers.
After the cavalry platoon attacks, the infantry only has to clean up the battlefield!
Old Japs Miyazaki's luck was really not that good. He miraculously escaped from the cavalry platoon's pursuit, but there were only a hundred and eighty Japs left behind who were frightened.
They did not choose to go back to Anping City, because he had a premonition that Anping City was not safe, so he fled directly from the trail to Lu'an, which was farther away. There was a Japanese regiment there, and the independent battalion would definitely not dare to pursue it.
Because Miyazaki escaped, the Japanese later refused to admit that the 35th Regiment was annihilated. They only admitted that they suffered heavy casualties and suffered a small defeat. Of course, these are all things for later.
After the 35th Regiment was annihilated, Anping City became an isolated city. Naturally, Chu Xiong would not let go of this ripe peach.
Anping City was originally guarded by more than 500 Japanese soldiers under Nakata Kenyo. The Second Company feigned an attack for a while and eliminated dozens of Japanese soldiers. Now the city is fully occupied and only about 400 Japanese soldiers are left.
Faced with the Chinese people who were surrounded from three sides, Nakata Kenyo could only keep asking for help from Zezhou. There was a brigade of Japanese soldiers there, but it took at least three days to get from Zezhou to Anping, and water far away could not quench the thirst of the near!
Nakata didn't believe that the garrison brigade he was dissatisfied with could survive three days. All he could do was do his best and obey fate.
Chu Xiong left the Third Company to clean the battlefield, and the cannon company to assist. He only took the mortar platoon and the Fourth Company to Anping City. With the mortars there, it would not be a problem to capture Anping City.
The soldiers were very fast. After Chu Xiong and others arrived, they immediately launched an attack on Anping City. The mortar platoon directly destroyed part of the city wall. When Nakata Kenyo saw that there were artillery on the eighth route, he did not hesitate and directly used the ones left by Chu Xiong. Escaped through the south gate gap.
There were hundreds of thousands of people in Anping City, and Chu Xiong didn't want to overwhelm the Japanese and force the people to back him up, so he gave them a way out.
Nakata Kenyo was also a bachelor and did not cause sabotage. He just ran away with his people, leaving Anping City to the independent camp.
This was the first county town recovered by the Independence Battalion, which was of great significance, but it was nothing more than that. He could not hold Anping City at all.
After Chuxiong captured Anping City, he emptied the several hundred taels of gold from the vault of the Japanese bank in Anping City. All Japanese capital and goods were confiscated, especially cloth and medicines, and the others were left untouched.
Chu Xiong mobilized two thousand young men from the city to help carry things, and withdrew from Anping City that afternoon.
Chu Xiong did not rob Anping City of all the daily necessities. If they were robbed, the lives of the hundreds of thousands of people in the city would be difficult. The Japanese would not care whether they live or die.
This is the tragedy of an occupied country. Even if it captures a county, it does not dare to go too far.
Only when you are strong enough can you dare to occupy the county seat and not leave. The current independent operation can only transport some of the Japs' assets and collect them as soon as possible.
Fortunately, 2,000 young people were obtained. They were all people in the city who had no food and clothing and did not want to be enslaved by the Japanese. These people could be sent to Liu Town and they would be a good source of soldiers in the future.
Not long after the Independent Battalion left Anping, Nakata Kenyo returned to the city openly and announced in a high-profile manner that the imperial army had once again occupied Anping City and annihilated hundreds of enemies.
Not only was Nakata Kenyo not reprimanded by Xiao Zhuoyoshi, but because of his contribution to the recovery of Anping, he was promoted from major to lieutenant colonel. The Anping garrison was also replenished and returned to full strength.
At this point, the Japanese campaign to capture Liu Town came to an end, and both sides returned to the pre-war status.
The Japanese need to accumulate strength to launch a new strategy, and the independent battalion also needs to rebuild Liu Town.
In the Battle of Liuzhen, a total of more than 3,600 people of the 35th Japanese Regiment were annihilated. Only the commander of the regiment, Colonel Miyazaki, and more than 100 remaining soldiers escaped.
Five 75mm field guns, more than 80 light and heavy machine guns, more than 60 grenade launchers, more than 2,000 Type 38 rifles, and no ammunition and supplies were seized.
More than 500 taels of gold from the Japanese bank's vault were confiscated from Anping City, and more than 150,000 Japanese silver dollars and a large amount of cloth and medicine were confiscated.
Chuxiong planned to use this batch of cloth to sew two sets of military uniforms for each person in the independent battalion. Due to the rapid expansion of the army, the main company, let alone the garrison company, did not have a set of military uniforms. They wore a variety of uniforms, which greatly affected the image.
The gold and silver coins brought back from Anping City were used to rebuild Liu Town. The reason why Chu Xiong chose to capture Anping City was to raise funds to rebuild Liu Town.
Liuzhen was destroyed by the Japanese. There is nothing wrong with confiscating their assets to rebuild. He, Chu Xiong, is not that easy to bully.
If you dare to come to Liuzhen to burn, kill, and loot, you must be mentally prepared to pay a heavy price. This time, almost a regiment was lost in Liuzhen. The Japanese should have a better memory.
"Comrades, let's go home!"
Chu Xiong waved his hand, showing off his bastard spirit, but unfortunately no one cheered!
