"Everything..."
Amidst the rapid muffled sound, the muzzle fireworks of 10 mortars bloomed, and 10 mortar shells flew towards the Japanese in the distance with a sharp whistling sound.
The gunner didn't even need to look at the point of impact. He quickly took the shell from the ammunition hand behind him and stuffed it into the barrel.
One of the great advantages of mortars is their fast rate of fire. An excellent gunner can even fire one round in 2 seconds.
Ten rapid fire shots fired out all 100 mortar shells in less than 20 seconds.
"Haha, be excited!"
The cavalry artillery company commander couldn't help but laugh heartily when he saw 100 artillery shells blooming in the Japanese formation in the field of view of the Zeiss telescope.
"Is this the end?"
Battalion Commander Ma Renxing shouted towards the artillery position:
"15 more shells!"
"Yes!" the cavalry artillery company commander straightened up and shouted loudly, "Target enemy, distance 1 kilometer, 15 rapid fire rounds!"
"put!"
Immediately afterwards, on the artillery position of the 2nd Cavalry Battalion, while muzzle fireworks bloomed, there was a muffled sound.
In the field of vision of the telescope, I watched 10 mortar shells arcing gracefully in the air and falling into the Japanese ranks.
Battalion Commander Ma Renxing had a stern expression.
"Mount!"
More than 200 cavalrymen, who had been ready for a long time, all got on their horses.
The cavalry soldiers holding submachine guns took the initiative to ride to the front of the cavalry formation. There were about 30 soldiers holding submachine guns.
】
The cavalrymen behind the submachine guns drew out their Yunlong knives one after another. There were more than 200 bright sabers, which made people feel chills in their skin.
Originally, the Jizhong Cavalry Regiment used the 88-style saber.
The length of this saber is flat and lancet-shaped. Generally speaking, it is an improvement based on the imitation of Japanese Western-style sabers, combined with China's native willow leaf and wild goose feather knife types, to increase the cutting distance.
Although the length is the same as the Yunlong Dao at 88 centimeters, the overall craftsmanship is rough and the finish is not as good as the Yunlong Dao.
Next to Ma Renxing, Ma Chengfeng's slightly childish face was filled with murderous intent.
"kill!"
Ma Renxing's long howl rose into the sky.
Under his order, the cavalrymen urged their horses and rushed towards the direction where the Japanese were being shelled.
Soon, the cavalry completed their starting speed and entered into a high-speed sprint.
Amidst the sound of horse hooves, a new regiment of cavalry surged forward like a gray tide.
Although some are new cavalry, they are all infantrymen selected from the original infantry who can ride horses.
The combat effectiveness of fighting immediately may be a little worse, but this kind of battle is an opportunity for new cavalry to quickly accumulate practical experience.
…
The third round show is a squadron leader of the 3rd Brigade.
He was sitting in the co-pilot of a truck. On the order of the brigade commander, he led his squadron to cover the artillery to bombard Datong Station and detonate combat materials in the station.
The sound of gunfire at the train station became sparse, and Miwa Shuichi showed a trace of anxiety on his face.
If the Eighth Route Army were to rob the combat supplies, it would be very bad!
And according to this marching speed, it might take half an hour to reach the vicinity of the station.
"Speed up!" Sanlu Xiuyi's face was gloomy. He knew that there were Eighth Route Cavalry around him, but he didn't care about that much at this time.
If he failed to complete the task, he would still have to perform a dissection to apologize.
As soon as he finished speaking, Miwa Shuichi saw some small black spots appear in the sky, and a faint sharp whistling sound sounded in his ears.
The battle-hardened third-round show immediately realized that there were artillery shells flying towards them!
It was too late to alert the soldiers, and the shells fell in and near the Japanese ranks.
The sound of the car's motor covered up the sharp whistling sound of falling artillery shells, causing most of the Japanese soldiers not to hear the whistling sound of the artillery shells.
Several shells fell directly into the middle of the Japanese crowd.
"Boom boom boom..."
Along with the explosion wave, there were also gravel, sand, broken limbs of the Japanese, and blood mist.
The Japs' reaction was also extremely fast. After the first wave of explosions, they quickly spread out and fell to the ground, crawling to avoid the bombardment.
The second round of shells fell immediately, followed by the third and fourth rounds of shells.
After ten rounds of shelling, the shelling stopped, and three trucks and a three-wheeler were parked on the roadside.
Shuichi Miwa jumped out of the passenger seat and saw ammunition craters and broken limbs all over the ground. The sound of wailing could not be heard, and his face was filled with anger.
He raised his binoculars and looked in the direction where the shells were flying, and saw a large cloud of gunpowder smoke rising one kilometer away.
That must be the mortar position of the Eighth Route Army.
Putting down the telescope, Miwa Xiuyi roared:
"idiot!"
"At 11 o'clock, the eighth artillery position, set up the infantry guns and mortars."
"Blow out the mortar positions on Tubal Road!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Japanese artillerymen took action and removed the infantry guns and mortars from the truck bed.
But soon, Miwa Shuichi and the Japanese heard the sharp whistling sound of artillery shells streaking across the sky.
Looking up, I saw many small black spots appearing in the sky, and the black spots were getting bigger and bigger, and the sharp whistling sound was coming from far away.
"idiot!"
"Bombardment...Concealment!"
As Miwa Shuichi shouted, he fell headlong into the crater created by the 82mm artillery shell next to him, and then quickly curled up.
This devil still has something. He knows that two shells fired from the same cannon will not hit the same location.
The second bombardment lasted about 30 seconds, and 10 mortars fired about 150 rounds at the Japanese.
At this time, more than 200 cavalrymen of the 2nd Cavalry Battalion, led by Ma Renxing, were less than 500 meters away from the Japanese.
When the Japs reacted from the shelling, they saw the Eighth Route Army cavalry in the distance, surging over like a tide amidst the rumble of horse hooves.
Miwa Shuichi stood up from the shell crater, shook off the dirt and gravel from his body, and quickly organized a defense.
Running is definitely out of the question.
How could two legs outrun a four-legged army horse?
However, it was already too late, the new regiment of cavalry was already sprinting at high speed.
The more than 100 Japanese infantry who survived the shelling were like frightened sheep, hurriedly carrying rifles or setting up light or heavy machine guns.
When the Japanese set up the light and heavy machine guns, there were only a few gunshots, and the new regiment of cavalry had already entered a range of 200 meters.
Immediately afterwards.
A dense rain of bullets composed of more than 30 submachine guns poured towards the machine gun position temporarily constructed by the Japanese.
The Japanese machine gunner was instantly shrouded in a hail of bullets and fell into a pool of blood as if he was electrocuted.
After finishing the shot, the submachine gunners spurred their horses and dispersed to both sides, revealing the cavalry behind them holding the bright Yunlong Sword.
Seeing the Eighth Route Cavalry rushing forward, driven by great fear, the Japanese infantry turned around and ran away. At this time, the Japanese's legs no longer obeyed, and all they could think about was running.
…
"kill!"
Battalion Commander Ma Renxing took the lead, riding his horse to catch up with a Japanese infantryman.
Relying on the huge inertia brought by the sprint of the war horse, Ma Renxing swung the Yunlong knife in his hand fiercely. The Japanese also heard the rapid sound of horse hooves from behind and was about to turn back.
He felt a numbness on his neck, and then his mind fell into boundless darkness.
Before the Japanese infantryman could twist his head halfway, his head was chopped off by Ma Renxing, and a bloody arrow shot out.
Although the blade of the Yunlong Sword is lighter, it is extremely sharp. Coupled with the inertia of the high-speed sprint of the war horse and the force of the slash, the devil's head spun directly and fell to the ground, while the devil's headless body ran forward a few steps. It fell to the ground like a wooden stake.
After cutting down two more Japs in succession, Ma Renxing saw a bow-legged Japs officer wearing the rank of captain, holding a command knife in both hands, facing an Eighth Route Cavalry head on.
Ma Renxing raised his eyes and discovered that the Eighth Route Cavalryman was his son Ma Chengfeng.
And this Japanese officer is none other than Miwa Shuichi, the Japanese squadron leader.
Approaching the target, Ma Chengfeng slashed the command knife at Sanwunxiu. Milunxiu ducked down to avoid Ma Chengfeng's slash. At the same time, he held the handle of the command knife with both hands and suddenly swung it forward. .
The legs of the military horse under Ma Chengfeng's crotch were cut off by the three-wheel show.
The military horse suddenly neighed and fell to the ground, and the horse on its back was also thrown away.
Ma Renxing's heart suddenly tightened when he saw this, and he immediately urged his war horse to rush towards the Japanese officer.
Miwa Xiuyi took advantage of Ma Chengfeng's fall and was about to cut off Ma Chengfeng's head when the rapid sound of horse hooves sounded behind him.
Before the third-rounder could react, he felt a huge force suddenly hit him, and then his body flew out lightly, and he could vaguely hear the sound of his bones breaking.
Immediately afterwards, Miwa Shuichi's head was cut off with a knife.
Ma Renxing glanced at Ma Chengfeng, who was getting up from the ground while cursing, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
After killing three Japanese soldiers in a row, Ma Renxing continued to urge his army and horses to move forward.
Ma Chengfeng also quickly picked up the Yunlong Sword, climbed onto an unowned military horse, and followed Ma Renxing forward.
More than 200 new regiment cavalry sifted the Japanese like chaff.
Soon there was no more Japanese in sight.
Looking back, I saw that the Japs had been almost killed. There were only about 200 Japs at first, but dozens of them were killed by the shells, while the new regiment of cavalry had more than 200 people.
"It was a comfortable fight!"
Just one charge killed almost all the remaining Japanese infantry.
One after another, Japanese heads were seen falling to the ground, like a slaughterhouse.
The faces of the soldiers of the new cavalry battalion showed cheerful and fierce smiles.
After the artillery bombardment, the cavalry charged.
"If you are well equipped, you will feel comfortable fighting."
Battalion Commander Ma Renxing couldn't help but sigh.
"Go back!" Ma Renxingle turned to his horse and shouted loudly, without raising his saber, "Clean the battlefield!"
The cavalry soldiers quickly returned to the battlefield, and when they saw the Japs' corpses, they stabbed the Japs first regardless of whether they were dead or alive.
If any Japanese surrendered voluntarily, they would be taken as prisoners; if not, their heads would be chopped off.
Looking at the captured Type 38 rifle, Type 92 heavy machine gun and Taisho Type 11 light machine gun.
In the past, these equipments would have been good things.
Now?
The soldiers looked at the Japs' equipment with disgust in their eyes.
However, no matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat. These weapons can be taken back to the militiamen and they can continue to be used.
