The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 228 Cavalry Showdown
Zhang Jiawang has participated in all the battles since the establishment of the guerrillas, and he can be regarded as an experienced veteran.He didn't panic, took the chopsticks and pulled them a few more times, finished the rice left at the bottom of the bowl, and put down the rice bowl.After wiping his mouth, he asked, "How many devils are there?"

The soldier said: "There are many, there are hundreds of them."

"There are so many!" Zhang Jiawang became a little nervous now, he pulled out the shell gun from his waist, and said, "All the platoon gather."

The soldiers in three companies and one row hastily got together.Zhang Jiawang said: "The devils are here, and there are many of them. Let's not implicate the fellow villagers, and evacuate immediately." After speaking, he took the lead and ran to the west of the village.

Although Zhang Jiawang has combat experience, he has only joined the guerrillas for three months after all, and the most important thing is that he has never seen a devil's cavalry.At this time, his most correct tactic should be to use the complex body shape in the village to fight against the devil's cavalry, instead of going to the wild.Outside the village is a flat crop field, the wheat has just been harvested, and it is bare, where is there any hiding place?

Zhang Jiawang also has his own reasons for doing so.On the one hand, the independent battalion has strict discipline.It is stipulated that when fighting, try to avoid doing it in densely populated villages, so as to prevent the people from being accidentally injured by the devil's artillery fire during the battle, and to prevent the devil from retaliating against the people.Zhang Jiawang has experienced the Zhangjiazhuang tragedy, and he is particularly concerned about this.

Another point is that he really doesn't know anything about the devil's cavalry.According to the method of dealing with enemy infantry, he led the team to rush out of the village, along the retreat route he had already chosen, fighting while running.The devil's infantry also rely on two legs to chase them, so they have a chance to break away from contact with the devil and move to a safe place.

It is true that Major Amagi Kanshiro, the captain of the 18th Cavalry Battalion of the Japanese Army, is fierce and brutal. He is a cavalry commander with rich combat experience, and it is also true.He may not be as cunning and changeable as Wang Zhankui, but he is very skilled in using cavalry.

When Amagi Kanshiro saw Daguo Village, he was not so arrogant that he led a large group of people into the village regardless, but sent scouts to investigate.The devil cavalry has strong mobility. They will first send out a small group of cavalry to surround Daguo Village in two groups, and then send several cavalry scouts into the village to investigate. When there is no danger, the large group of people will enter the village and camp .

After Zhang Jiawang and others ran out of the west entrance of the village, they ran forward along a canal.Although there were some shrubs and weeds growing on the side of the canal, which were as tall as half a person, they couldn't hide their figures at all.The devil cavalry, who had already made a detour to outflank the village, soon spotted them.

Immediately the two sides began to fight.

Zhang Jiawang's three companies and one platoon, a platoon leader, a deputy platoon leader, eight soldiers in each squad, plus a female soldier in the female soldier squad who cooperated with them in their propaganda activities, totaled 27 people.As soon as the battle started, they soon found that they were surrounded by the enemy.

On both sides and in front of them, there were quite a few devil cavalry. Those devils were very accurate in marksmanship. They rode on war horses and fired, which still caused a lot of casualties to the soldiers of the independent battalion.

Then, the devil's cavalry appeared from the direction of Daguo Village. They saw that Zhang Jiawang and others were few in number, and they simply formed a team outside the village. Then they drew their sabers and rushed towards Zhang Jiawang and others on horseback.

Looking at the enemy cavalry rolling in, Zhang Jiawang and others shot at the devils in despair.They didn't have machine guns, and each had only 11 rounds of ammunition. The weak firepower couldn't stop the charge of the devil cavalry.Some devils were also shot and fell off their horses, but other devil cavalry rushed over quickly.

The brutal massacre began, and the devil cavalry howled, raised their bright sabers and slashed down condescendingly.The soldiers of the Independence Battalion who panicked fell one by one in a pool of blood.

Zhang Jiawang was quite experienced. He lay down on the ground and hit two devil cavalrymen in a row. The No.3 devil cavalryman rushed up to him, with his horse between his legs, leaned down, and slashed at him with a single blow. on Zhang Jiawang's head.

The soldiers in the three companies and one platoon were all killed in battle soon, leaving only one female soldier from the female soldier squad.Those devil cavalry rode tall horses, surrounded the female soldier, and let out sinister laughter.

Unwilling to be captured and humiliated, the young female soldier fired a grenade around her waist.In this way, 29 young and fresh lives were sacrificed in the fields outside Daguo Village with the addition of a female soldier in the third company and a row of the Independent Battalion.

The cavalry of the 18th Battalion of the Japanese Army Cavalry, they were murderous, they had already lost their humanity, they were purely a group of beasts.The bloody sacrifices of soldiers from the independent battalion such as Zhang Jiawang did not bring about the safety of the people of Daguo Village.

After the devil cavalry entered the village, dozens of women in the village were all raped by the devils.Many women were killed by them even after being abused by them.The men in the village were massacred, and the beasts did not spare even the elderly and children. The devils drove them into the ancestral hall of the village, set firewood outside, and burned them alive inside.

The beasts of the 18th Japanese Cavalry Battalion, after finishing these dirty and bloody things, started a fire and cooked in the bloody village.They sat next to the corpses of the villagers in Zhangjia Village, chatting and laughing happily, eating and drinking, completely ignoring the angry eyes of the villagers who were beheaded by them.

After drinking and eating, the 18th Japanese Cavalry Brigade returned to the Jizheng Highway and headed towards Lu County.On their horses, there were also some pretty young women from Daguo Village tied up, and these beasts continued to humiliate Jianyin.

The route the devils traveled was the section of the Jinan-Zhengzhou Highway from Jinan to Lu County, which was basically a flat river with a wide view.Under such terrain conditions, it is basically impossible to ambush cavalry.

Gao Jiu had traveled the road between Yu County and Lu County many times, and he was very familiar with the terrain here. There were only two places where the devil cavalry could ambush him.One is in Yu County, and it is too late in time.Now there is only one place left, which is a two-kilometer-long hilly area. The Jizheng Highway passes through a valley about 500 meters wide, with gentle hills on both sides and some sparse shrubs growing on it.Gao Jiu and others ambushed the troops here.

However, with such a terrain, not only Gao Jiu and others would choose to ambush here, but the captain of the 18th Battalion of the Devils, Amagi Kanshiro, can also see the danger of this terrain.

When encountering such a terrain, he would send a small number of cavalry to conduct reconnaissance. After confirming that there was no danger, his cavalry brigade would pass through this section of road.It's impossible for Gao Jiu to fight the enemy's ambush here.But Gao Jiu and the others still ambushed the troops.

3:30 p.m.The devil's cavalry appeared, and several of the devil's scouts rode on tall horses, and saw several cavalry in national army uniforms in the distance.They were sitting on the side of the road resting.The devil's cavalry approached them quietly, and then shot them indiscriminately.Several cavalrymen of the national army were shot and fell down, and the rest hurriedly rode on their horses and ran forward, and the devil's scouts also chased after them.

At this time, more than 20 cavalry soldiers of the national army appeared not far away. They fought back against the devil's scouts, killed several devil's scouts on the spot, and then charged towards the remaining devil's scouts.

The captain of the Devil Cavalry Battalion, Amagi Kanshiro, observed the battlefield with a telescope, and he saw the national army uniforms worn by the enemy cavalry.

At the combat meeting held by the 128th Brigade, Kanshiro Amagi learned from the enemy's report that the puppet cavalry battalion originally stationed in Linchuan Town had defected to the 792nd Regiment of the National Army. This cavalry unit was also Wunan The only cavalry unit in the region.He judged that the cavalry team that appeared in front of him was the rebellious puppet cavalry team.

Amagi Kanshiro looked down on the Chinese people very much. He looked down on those puppet troops who had defected to them, and he hated those puppet troops who had defected to the Yellow Army and rebelled again.He had long thought of finding an opportunity to destroy Wang Zhankui's cavalry battalion after arriving in Lu County.Now that they met them here, Amagi Kanshichiro would naturally not let go of this opportunity to annihilate the enemy cavalry battalion.

However, although this guy is usually manic, he can calm down immediately when he is on the battlefield.At this moment, he was not in a hurry to command the troops to attack, but calmly observed the situation on the battlefield.

The cavalry of the cavalry battalion chased the scouts of the Japanese army and shot at them, and the cavalrymen of the cavalry continued to fall off their horses.Seeing this situation, Amagi Kanshichiro ordered a small group of devil cavalry to attack.

Chasing the devil scouts was a platoon from the cavalry battalion. There were more than 20 people in total. When they saw so many devils coming out, they stopped their pursuit, fired a row of guns at the devils, and then turned around and retreated.

The devil's cavalry squad closely pursued this platoon of national army cavalry. Kanshichiro Amagi held up his binoculars and carefully observed the situation on the battlefield.At this moment, he saw a group of national army cavalry appearing in the distance. There were about 80 to [-] people, which should be a company of national army cavalry.They rushed towards the cavalry squad of the Japanese army, and the cavalry of the national army who fled earlier also turned back.

Amagi Kanshichiro felt that the situation was a bit strange. He thought that these people should not be the only cavalry of the national army nearby.He knew that Wang Zhankui had a total of more than 200 cavalrymen. At this moment, about 100 cavalrymen had appeared, and there should be more than 100 cavalrymen ambushing nearby.

Amagi Kanshiro ordered a cavalry squadron to go forward to fight, and he led the other cavalry troops to continue to observe the situation on the battlefield.

The cavalry of the national army brandished their sabers, and the cavalry of the Japanese army believed in the spirit of bushido. They also carried their carbine on their backs and drew their sabers to meet them.

The cavalry of the enemy and us fought together, people screamed, the sound of sabers clashing, and the screams of the dead and wounded rang out.

Most of the cavalry of the 18th Battalion of the Japanese Cavalry are veterans with rich combat experience.Most of Wang Zhankui's cavalry are veterans, and all of them are extremely fierce.The two sides were fighting each other, and the battle fell into a stalemate.

Amagi Kanshiro was very calm, he did not invest the main force to join the battle group, but led the brigade to slowly approach.This tactic is very effective. The Japanese army has a slight advantage in the number of the enemy and the enemy fighting in front of them.The Japanese brigade slowly approached, causing psychological panic among the officers and soldiers of the cavalry battalion.They finally couldn't resist and began to retreat.

The cavalry of the Japanese army immediately pursued and killed them, and Kenshiro Amagi led the brigade to pursue, but he always kept a distance of more than [-] meters from the Japanese army in front, and carefully guarded against the enemy's ambush.

The battlefield is constantly moving forward, gradually entering the hilly area ahead.

Amagi Kanshichiro remained vigilant at all times, carefully observing the movement around him.At this moment, the enemy's ambush appeared.With a burst of gunfire, the Japanese army in the front squadron was attacked, and more than a dozen people were shot and fell off the horse on the spot.Immediately afterwards, more than a hundred national army cavalry rushed out from both sides wielding sabers.

Seeing that, as expected, the main force of the cavalry of the national army is ambushing here.Amagi Kanshiro smiled contemptuously, and thought to himself: "The capricious Chinese people are just these little tricks, how can they hide it from me, the Yellow Army of Japan?"

However, he still remained vigilant and did not press the whole army together.

At this time, Wang Zhankui's cavalry battalion had surrounded the Japanese army in the squadron in front, and Qianshichiro Qiancheng was sure that the main force of the enemy army had come out.So, he drew out his saber, roared: "Assault here," and rushed forward first.The devil's brigade of cavalry also brandished sharp sabers, roaring and galloping on horseback.

The cavalry from both sides fought each other, and with the screams, cavalry from both sides kept falling!The battlefield was dripping with blood, and there were broken limbs and a corpse everywhere.

Gao Jiu and Wang Zhankui fought side by side, wielding sabers and fighting with the Japanese army.

Wang Zhankui's swordsmanship was superb, and he had beheaded two Japanese cavalry in a short time.While fighting with the Japanese cavalry, he still had time to observe Gao Jiu's situation.

Gao Jiu didn't have so many tricks with swordsmanship. When he saw the Japanese cavalry, he would cut him straight in the face.Japanese cavalry usually raise their swords to block, and then counterattack.They didn't expect that Gao Jiu's power was infinite, and the heavy force of this knife was beyond their ability to stop. Often the saber in his hand was knocked into the air, and then Gao Jiu chopped off the horse with a single knife!

Sometimes it was even more outrageous. Gao Jiu slashed down with a single knife, and with such great force, he even bounced the devil's saber against their own bodies, and they were immediately knocked off their horses.Any devil cavalry who fought with Gao Jiu would be cut off from his horse with at most two knives.

Wang Zhankui was full of admiration, and thought: "Master Jiu is a god-man, he is simply too powerful!" He was excited, blocked the saber from the devil cavalry, and cut off the horse in front of the devil cavalry with his backhand!

Seeing Gao Jiu and Wang Zhankui's fighting strength, a devil cavalry officer commanded a group of devils to attack them.Gao Jiu and Wang Zhankui were not afraid at all, they slashed and killed the devils with all their strength, and kept cutting the devils off their horses!
Although Gao Jiu and Wang Zhankui were powerful, the other cavalrymen in the cavalry battalion suffered heavy casualties.The number of devils far exceeded the strength of the cavalry battalion. As the cavalry battalion's cavalry continued to fall off their horses, the gap between the two sides' strength became wider and wider, and the situation was very critical.

Seeing this situation, Gao Jiu and Wang Zhankui knew that it was impossible to annihilate the devil cavalry, or that the whole army might be wiped out, so they ordered to retreat.The cavalrymen of the cavalry battalion turned their horses and ran wildly in the direction of Lu County.

Qiancheng Ganqilang had already fired, how could he let the cavalry battalion leave, he led a large cavalry to chase desperately.

A few minutes later, the hills on both sides gradually rose, and the terrain became more complicated.

Qiancheng Ganqiro suddenly became a little vigilant. Although he judged that the main force of the enemy army was already here, he still felt that there was something wrong?
He began to consider whether to stop the pursuit.
