my bright sword career

Chapter 401
"Dick tick tick... da da tick..."

Just when Colonel Nonaka Jiuji felt flustered, along with the sound of excited bugles, countless soldiers of the Eighth Route Army in gray uniforms suddenly rushed out from the two wings. It is the most elite spy company in the regiment, and Li Yunlong, the regiment leader, is among them.

If the First Battalion is the sharp knife of the Independence Regiment, then the Secret Service Battalion is the sharpest point of the knife.

Although the spy company only has more than 100 people, they are all equipped with MP40 Schmeisser submachine guns, and these submachine guns were obtained by Li Yunlong after a long time of hard work with Gao Hongming.

When more than 100 elite soldiers rushed into the position with a submachine gun and fired at the Japanese cavalry, the Japanese cavalry, who had been almost exhausted in the previous charge and fighting with the infantry, were hit by a series of desperate blows before. It was already relying on the last courage to hold on there, and now the battlefield situation has changed drastically. With the sudden addition of the new force of the spy company, it instantly broke the last courage of the Japanese cavalry.

The Japanese cavalry regiment retreated.

This scene was beyond everyone's expectations, but it was also expected.

"Leader... we... won!"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhang Dabiao roared loudly with tears of excitement in his eyes, as if he was venting his suppressed emotions for a long time.

The previous battalion faced the desperate blow from the cavalry with courage beyond imagination, which broke the courage of the Japanese army and created conditions for repelling the Japanese attack. With four infantry companies and one cavalry company, they severely damaged and repelled This is the first time in the history of the Eighth Route Army that it has twice the size of its own and a well-organized Japanese cavalry regiment.

Li Yunlong stood on the ground without saying a word for a long time, looking at the ground in front of him, the corpses of countless people and horses scattered here and there, and occasionally some war horses that lost their masters, mourning and moaning among the dead corpses, billowing thick smoke from the It rises from the battlefield and rises straight into the air.

The smell of gunpowder smoke mixed with the thick smell of blood that came with the breeze, enveloped the entire mountain, and this scene all told the tragedy of the battle.

But now is not the time to be sentimental, Li Yunlong immediately issued a new order: "Zhang Dabiao... Hurry up and count the loss of personnel and materials, and be ready to deal with the attack of the little devil at any time!"

Soon, the losses were counted.

"Regimental Commander, 233 people were killed and 62 were injured in our battalion. We still have 4 heavy machine guns and 16 light machine guns."

"Damn it, the little devil's attack is quite ruthless."

Even though Li Yunlong was already prepared, he also grinned straight away. You must know that the first battalion is the most capable unit of the independent regiment, and now half of it has been wiped out in one fell swoop, so how can he not feel distressed.

"Baga...shame! An entire cavalry regiment was defeated by a Chinese army of less than 1000! This is a disgrace to the entire Imperial Japanese Army!" In the temporary command post less than a mile away from the first battalion Lieutenant General Miyazaki Shigeru, who had just arrived not long ago, looked at the dead bodies scattered all over the Eighth Route Army's position through the binoculars. I felt the dazzling scene in front of the Eighth Route Army's position.

Shigesaburo Miyazaki originally thought that the thin line of defense hastily laid out by the Eighth Route Army could be taken in one charge, and then he could immediately lead the 31st Division to catch up with the retreating Chinese army, but now a cavalry regiment As a result of being severely injured by the opponent, Shigeru Miyazaki felt more shame and anger because of it.

As a division that has just been established for a few years, the background of the 31st Division is undoubtedly relatively weak. Miyazaki Shigeru has been working hard to prove that under his leadership, the 31st Division can do what the permanent divisions can do. can do it.

For this reason, Miyazaki Shigeru set his sights on Gao Hongming.

Others don't know, but Miyazaki Shigeru, who is a senior general, knows very well. Even though Gao Hongming and his Rentai militia are rarely mentioned in Japan today, it is just because the Japanese high-level officials have issued a ban on local media and The officers discuss the unit.

But many things cannot be solved with a ban. There is a saying in Huaxia that defending the mouth of the people is better than Fangchuan. The more you ban some things, the more people will discuss them.

Especially last year, after the [-]th Division and [-]th Division were severely damaged by Gao Hongming with poison gas bombs, killing tens of thousands of people, there were even rumors in the Japanese that Gao Hongming was the reincarnation of the Chinese God of Killing, Bai Qi.

Although this kind of rumor is absurd, there are so many people who can't stand it, especially the more remote places, the more believers. Shigesaburo Miyazaki even heard that many vendors are now making statues based on the photos of Gao Hongming published in newspapers. Many Japanese families with relatives in China bought the statues and enshrined them, hoping that the God of Death would show mercy to their relatives in foreign countries and allow them to return home safely. This trend is even intensifying.

For a soldier of any country, when he reaches the rank of major general, his promotion path will become more and more difficult in the future, even more difficult than thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge. There must be a combat exploit that can be obtained.

Shigesaburo Miyazaki, who has a strong desire for an official career, immediately realized the opportunity. If he can defeat the Rentai militia or kill or even capture Gao Hongming, then his reputation will definitely reach its peak. I am afraid that His Majesty the Emperor will have to receive him Bar.

This is why Miyazaki Shigesaburo was determined to pursue it after seeing the retreat of the Huaxia Army, and even quarreled with the 33rd Division.

The world is prosperous, all come for profit, and the world is crowded, all go for profit.

In order to get promoted and get rich, how can we not take some risks. .

It's just that Shigesaburo Miyazaki didn't expect that he would be hit hard at the beginning of this pursuit. The two regiments acting as rear guards were so tenacious, firmly guarding the few hills near the road.

In view of the slow attack speed of the infantry regiment, he dispatched the cavalry regiment to deal with the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side in one fell swoop, but he did not expect the opponent to be so tenacious. Not to mention his cavalry regiment was severely injured, he was even driven back. If the 33rd Division finds out about the matter, maybe something will happen again.

After getting angry, Shigezaburo Miyazaki picked up the binoculars and looked forward again, and found that the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side was cleaning the battlefield and digging positions. Seeing this, his brows were frowned.

After pondering for a while, Shigezaburo Miyazaki called the communications staff officer, "Immediately send a report to Commander Gangmura, saying that our division has been stubbornly blocked by the Eighth Route Army of China, requesting additional air support, and telegraphing the 36th and 37th divisions." , ask them to transfer their artillery to us, I must blow up the Eighth Route Army opposite to powder in one fell swoop!"
