Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2444: Sleepless Night!

Chapter 2444: Sleepless Night!

The death of the Japanese officer shattered the last bit of hope in the Japanese's hearts.

The fear of death urged them to flee.

They fled in all directions like wild animals being chased by hounds, not considering that the gunfire that attacked them was only from one source.

So just like that, the Japanese cavalry, which were originally so aggressive, fled in panic before they even saw what their enemy looked like.

After receiving the report, General Takeda became furious again.

Of course, anger did not cloud General Takeda's mind. Now it was night, the enemy's home ground, but in the daytime, it would be a different story.

So the top priority is to get through these few hours of darkness safely.

So Takeda once again improved the security measures in the camp.

He stationed guard camps in four directions outside the camp, consisting of the Imperial Army and the Imperial Auxiliary Army.

The Imperial Army was in command, and the Imperial Affiliated Army was once again reduced to cannon fodder. Even if they were attacked, it would be the Imperial Affiliated Army that would die, and this would not affect the Imperial Army's combat effectiveness.

The artillery is on standby 24 hours a day and will immediately retaliate if it encounters enemy bombardment.

After doing all this, General Takeda felt that it was not safe enough, so he sent cavalry to patrol more than 400 to 500 meters away from the camp to ensure that the enemy would not have any chance to take advantage.

After doing all this, General Takeda lay down again.

He was very tired after a day of running around, and he had to stay in the best condition to prepare for tomorrow's battle.

But what no one expected was that less than an hour after he lay down, something happened again. The cavalry patrol team was attacked again, and five out of a dozen people in the team escaped.

The guard battalion outside the camp went out to rescue, but they didn't see any enemy at all.

General Takeda was furious and ordered the cavalry patrol to be withdrawn, the guard camp outside the city to move forward, build fortifications, and fire flares into the air at regular intervals.

Although some Japanese officers felt that such flares were not enough, they had no better solution.

Unless they don't even want their own guard camp.

And everyone felt that this was possible, and the enemy's cunningness made them feel outrageous.

But at the same time, Duanwu and others went back to sleep.

The Japs need rest, and so do they. Tomorrow will be a big battle.

Of course, it would be a different story if the Japanese were blinded by anger.

But the Japanese were very cautious and only defended themselves without pursuing them, which made Duanwu's plan to lure the enemy out of their hole fail again.

Wu Gan suggested moving the remaining shells and launching another round of bombardment on the Japanese.

But Duanwu pointed at the flares that kept rising into the sky and said, "The Japs are defending like this, we don't even have a chance to get close. Besides, they have dug fortifications, so the shells are less effective."

Of course, even though Duanwu said this, he still had no intention of letting the devils go.

Since the Japanese won't come out, let's leave a few people behind to harass them.

Duanwu ordered Wugan's eight cavalrymen to circle the Japanese camp. The rumbling sound of horse hooves and occasional gunshots made it difficult for the Japanese to fall asleep.

In the second half of the night, many Japanese soldiers had dark circles under their eyes because they couldn't sleep at all. The sound of gunfire one after another woke them up just as they fell asleep.

The irritated Japanese soldier cursed and swore to kill all the people of Wugan tribe tomorrow to vent his hatred. But the Japanese soldier was tired after a day of work, and he was used to the occasional gunshots. In the second half of the night, he fell into a deep sleep.

In the darkness, Duanwu woke up like a wild beast. Looking at the Japanese guard camp that could no longer fire flash bombs, Duanwu smiled slightly.

Although the guard camp is full of puppet troops, they are also a force that cannot be underestimated.

There were at least more than a hundred puppet soldiers and a dozen Japanese devils in a guard camp.

The total force is about one hundred and twenty to thirty people.

And the four guard camps mean more than 500 enemies.

These enemies were given to him by the Japanese commander.

Although they built fortifications, they were temporary.

Perhaps such fortifications could block bullets, but they definitely could not stop the charge of cavalry.

Duanwu ordered Wugan to lead his other four cavalry battalions, each with 400 cavalrymen, to quietly approach the enemy's guard camp. Each battalion stopped about 200 meters away from the enemy's guard camp.

Of course, they would not approach the guard camp on horseback, but would approach quietly by leading the horses, and then mount the horses two hundred meters away from the guard camp.

The four cavalry battalions faced the four guard camps, and the direction of their attack formed a clockwise "卍" character.

Everything was ready, Duanwu slowly raised the signal gun.

  boom!

With a loud gunshot, time seemed to be suddenly torn apart, and a powerful force pushed the flare out of the barrel, breaking the silence of the night sky.

It drew a dazzling and straight track in the sky, like a comet passing through the sky, leaving a silver tail, shining in the darkness.

Immediately afterwards, the flare climbed to its highest point, and suddenly, it exploded in the air, like a dazzling firework, lighting up the night sky.

Countless tiny points of light scattered around, as dazzling as a blood-red star.

The Japanese and puppet soldiers looked at this scene in shock. Their eyes were instantly shocked by the dazzling light. For a moment, they even forgot to react, as if their bodies were fixed by some mysterious force.

Under the blood-red light, their faces were illuminated in a flickering manner, and their eyes were flashing with an expression of incomparable shock.

The Japanese officer was the first to react, shouting in horror: "Enemy attack!"

His voice echoed in the night sky, like a heavy hammer, finally awakening the Japanese from their brief stupor.

But it was too late. The earth began to roar, as if an ancient monster had awakened, shaking every inch of land.

The cavalry of the Wugan tribe came from the distant horizon like a black storm. The sound of their horses' hooves was like thunder, which made the hearts of the Japanese and puppet soldiers almost jump out of their chests.

The cavalrymen held scimitars and had unique tribal totems painted on their faces. In the moonlight, their figures looked particularly tall, as if they were ancient iron cavalry walking out of ancient legends, with unstoppable momentum.

Seeing this, the Japanese and puppet troops were terrified and began to retreat in panic, trying to find cover that could stop the cavalry.

But on this vast plain, where is the cover that can stop the cavalry?

The cavalrymen's speed was getting faster and faster, like a black whirlwind, ruthlessly crushing all obstacles in their way.

The Japs' machine guns began firing blindly, but in the chaos and fear their fire was so weak that it was unable to stop the cavalry's charge.

The puppet troops had already lost their fighting spirit and began to flee in all directions, trying to escape the impending disaster.

However, everything was doomed. The cavalry of the Wugan tribe was like an angry tide, completely submerging the camp of the devils and puppet troops! .
