I am God of War in Snow Leopard

Chapter 233 Move to Suzhong ([-])

Wang Bicheng and the others took advantage of the opportunity when the devil's firepower was suppressed, and quickly rode their horses diagonally past the front of the devil's convoy.

Then he rushed forward to the left and successfully merged with dozens of cavalry who came to meet him.

"Mr. Wang, I'll lead the people to the back of the palace, you should retreat quickly!" After meeting, the cavalry platoon leader hurriedly shouted to Wang Bicheng.

Wang Bicheng glanced back, and was suppressed by the firepower of his own reinforcements, and the devil convoy was in a mess.

Gratefully glanced at the reinforcements, quickly changed the magazine for his submachine gun, and immediately turned his horse's head and said: "We can't withdraw now, if we withdraw, none of the ordinary people can escape.

Continue to work with devils! "

The cavalry platoon leader who led the team also glanced at the innocent people who were fleeing with Little Six, nodded and said, "Then fight the little devil to the end!"

On the devil's side, Yamada Boteng was protected by several subordinates, and he retreated to the rear of the convoy in embarrassment, after confirming his safety for the time being.

He finally came to his senses and immediately asked an adjutant beside him who was following him back: "What's the situation? What's the situation ahead now?"

The Japanese adjutant replied hurriedly: "Sir, another Chinese cavalry reinforcement has arrived.

They were all equipped with submachine guns, and the No. 2 Squadron in front suffered heavy losses!

At present, the firepower is suppressed by the Chinese army. "

Yamada Boten was shocked and angry when he heard the words, and carefully climbed up from the back of a military truck.

At the same time, he picked up the one hanging on his chest, put it in front of his eyes, and looked towards the front of his team.

This sight made him furious because he found that there were less than a hundred Chinese cavalry in front of him.

But relying on all automatic firearms, he insisted on suppressing his own troops who clearly had the superiority in strength.

Seeing this scene, Yamada Boteng gritted his teeth angrily, and immediately ordered the deployment: "Order the No. 2 Squadron to rely on the front of the convoy to fight back and resist, and contain the Chinese cavalry in front.

The 1st and 3rd Squadrons quickly outflanked from the two wings!

The heavy machine gun squadron immediately set up a position to counterattack the Chinese army. No matter what, I must eat all these Chinese cavalry!

Don't let anyone escape! "

Yamada Boteng was furious, and after a long time, his troops were beaten into such a mess by a Chinese cavalry who didn't even have a hundred soldiers.

Thinking that he almost lost his life just now, he was both scared and angry.

With a unified command and deployment, the devils in the chaos quickly made the correct response.

The No. 2 Squadron, with more than a hundred people left, quickly stood up and fired back while Wang Bicheng and the Huben regiment cavalry were changing their magazines.

Relying on the precise marksmanship far surpassing that of ordinary soldiers of the national army, the Japanese soldiers counterattacked and immediately shot down several cavalrymen of the Huben Regiment.

Even the war horse that Wang Bicheng was riding received two shots. Although the caliber of the Sanba Gaigai was small, it was not powerful enough to kill the war horse instantly.

But after suffering from pain, the war horse began to neigh uncontrollably and tried to escape.

Wang Bicheng quickly pulled the reins of the horse and tried to control the horse.

The other two cavalry soldiers around him also encountered a similar situation, and they were busy controlling their horses.

At this time of confusion, someone discovered that there were devil infantry on the east and west sides of the road, and they were encircling them.

So he hurriedly exclaimed: "Sir, the little devils are outflanking us from both wings."

Wang Bicheng and the cavalry platoon leader quickly turned their heads to look at the words.

The cavalry platoon leader yelled, and immediately said to Wang Bicheng: "Sir Wang, if we don't withdraw, we will be made dumplings by the Japanese!"
In this way, not only will we not be able to save the people, we will also have to help ourselves. "

Wang Bicheng was already a little panicked. After all, he was not a real commander. Infiltrating the enemy's rear and engaging in intelligence and reconnaissance were his strengths.

Immediate response and directing battles are not what he is good at.

So he asked the cavalry platoon leader: "Then do you have any good solutions?"

The cavalry platoon leader said: "We are cavalry, so we are at a disadvantage when we shoot at the devils at such close range.

I suggest that we quickly retreat to the north and use the maneuverability of the war horse to attract and contain the devils!
In this way, the devils are attracted by us, so they don't care about chasing and killing those ordinary people.

In this way, not only can we save, but we can also cover the common people to successfully break through! "

Wang Bicheng nodded and said: "Okay, I will do as you say, retreat to the north, fight and retreat at the same time, quickly!"

……

At the same time, another scout cavalry sent by Wang Bicheng almost exhausted his horse to death.

Finally, about ten kilometers southwest of Tianma Lake, we found the main force such as the headquarters of the Huben regiment that was advancing.

Just as Lin Baoguo guessed, at this moment, the various divisions of the regiment led by Xu Qingfeng kept the radio silent.

Because of the exposure of the third battalion, it attracted most of the devils' strength and attention.

Therefore, Xu Qingfeng and Zhou Weiguo planned to take advantage of the opportunity to lead the regiment headquarters and the directly-affiliated teams to quickly go north. They would first get to Xuyi to gain a foothold and then gather the various units to return to the team.

When the cavalryman was brought to the tank where Xu Qingfeng and Zhou Weiguo were riding by two soldiers from the guard company.

Xu Qingfeng immediately ordered the tank he was riding to stop, and before the cavalry soldier could speak, he asked first, "What's the matter? Is there any emergency?"

Xu Qingfeng knew that if there was no emergency, the men of the cavalry company would not rush over in such a hurry to look for the regiment headquarters.

The cavalry soldier calmed down his shortness of breath, ignored Xu Qingfeng and Zhou Weiguo's salute, and said, "Reporting to the regiment, it's not good, we found a devil mechanized and cavalry unit, marching north from Yangzhou.

Its target is probably Xuyi County! "

"What?" Xu Qingfeng and Zhou Weiguo couldn't help being surprised when they heard this, and they looked at each other.

Zhou Weiguo immediately asked: "How many people are there in the devil's army? Where are they now?"

The cavalry soldier quickly replied: "The enemy has about a thousand people, including 400 cavalry, and the rest are all mechanized infantry.

When we discovered them, they had already passed Tianchang Town, and should now be less than half the distance from Xuyi County.

Officer Wang Bicheng leads a cavalry platoon and is trying to intercept them! "

Zhou Weiguo immediately turned his head to Xu Qingfeng and said, "I'm afraid a cavalry platoon can't stop the devil's footsteps!"

Xu Qingfeng also looked solemn and asked the cavalry soldier: "Besides the regiment headquarters, have you contacted other troops?"

The cavalry soldier immediately replied: "Yes, there is another brother who rushed back to report the news like me. I don't know if he has found other troops."

When Xu Qingfeng heard this, he immediately ordered: "Order Liu Bohui to turn on the radio immediately to see which troops he can contact and ask them how far they are from the enemy in the direction of Yangzhou!"

"Yes!" Chen Qifeng, the company commander of the security company who had already heard the news, immediately stood up and saluted, and quickly ran away under the command.

……

At the Fifth Infantry Battalion, Lin Baoguo was leading his troops to the place where Wang Bicheng's troops were fighting the Japanese.

They could already vaguely hear the sound of gunfire coming from the front. At this moment, a soldier from the Communications Department, carrying a portable radio on his back, chased after them in a hurry.

He said to Lin Baoguo: "Report to Deputy Counselor Lin, the radio station at the regiment headquarters has been contacted."

"Really?" Lin Baoguo stopped immediately, and ordered: "Immediately send power to the regiment headquarters, ask how they are doing, and report our location and situation."

"Yes!" The communications soldier immediately started sending telegrams.

But at this moment, the front vanguard suddenly turned back and came back with a second lieutenant platoon leader.

He also ran to Lin Baoguo in a hurry, and said anxiously to Lin Baoguo, "Sir, it's not good, we found a group of devil cavalry rushing northward.

The Japanese cavalry also discovered us, but instead of fighting, they rushed directly onto the road and headed north. "

"What?" Lin Baoguo was shocked when he heard this and immediately reacted: "Are the Japanese cavalry heading towards Xuyi County?"

A deputy battalion commander next to him said: "Battlemaster, Xuyi County is the meeting point of our whole regiment. If this place falls into the hands of the devils, the consequences will be disastrous!"

Lin Baoguo didn't think much and immediately ordered the communications soldier next to him who was sending a telegram: "Communications soldier, immediately report to the regiment headquarters and say that the enemy cavalry has detoured to Xuyi County.

Our unit was about to support the cavalry company and block the enemy's follow-up troops, but was unable and unable to intercept them.

Please try to intercept the regiment quickly, our department will go all out to block the enemy's follow-up mechanized troops! "

"Yes!" The communication soldier responded and quickly changed the content of the message.

……

Huben regiment headquarters here.

Xu Qingfeng had already made the regiment directly under the various troops, and they all stopped.

He and Zhou Weiguo even jumped off a tank and were anxiously waiting for radio news.

Soon, Liu Bohui, who was personally in charge of operating the radio station, ran over with a message.

Hastily saluted Xu Qingfeng and Zhou Weiguo at attention: "Report to the regiment, Deputy Chief of Staff Lin reported that they found the enemy cavalry bypassing our cavalry troops to intercept.

Already on their way to Xuyi County, the 5th Infantry Battalion had no cavalry and was unable to intercept them.

Deputy Chief of Staff Lin suggested that the regiment headquarters quickly try to intercept this enemy cavalry, and he will lead the 5th Infantry Battalion to go all out to intercept the enemy's follow-up troops! "

Xu Qingfeng's face changed when he heard the words, and he immediately said to Zhou Weiguo: "The enemy is rushing towards Xuyi County so recklessly, could it be that Xuyi County has already fallen?"

Zhou Weiguo pondered: "It's very possible, otherwise with his three to four hundred cavalry and not good at attacking fortresses, it would be abnormal to rush to Xuyi County in such a hurry!"

Chen Qifeng said: "If Xuyi County falls into the hands of the devils, it will be a big trouble for our whole regiment."

Zhou Weiguo said: "This is not the most serious thing. The most serious thing is that the enemy's occupation of Xuyi is equivalent to blocking our passage to the north.

If the enemy from Lai'an comes after us, the enemy will probably wipe us out in this area. "

Xu Qingfeng nodded with deep understanding and said: "Looking at the overall strategic situation, the abnormal behavior of the enemy's cavalry recklessly advancing towards Xuyi County can be explained.

That is, Xuyi County should have fallen into the hands of the Japanese! "

Chen Qifeng said in confusion: "But didn't the Qing newspaper say that Xuyi County is still in the hands of our army?"

Zhou Weiguo said: "The war is changing rapidly, especially in the context of our army's defeat, people's hearts are unpredictable, and anything can happen!"

"Therefore, we do not rule out the possibility that the Xuyi defenders will rebel and surrender to the enemy!"

"If you assume this, it will be easier to understand the actions of the devil cavalry."

Xu Qingfeng muttered.

"Tuan Zuo, what should we do now?" Chen Qifeng turned to look at Xu Qingfeng for instructions.

Xu Qingfeng pondered for a while and then made a decisive decision: "First of all, quickly send people to contact other departments and ask them to turn on the radio and be on standby!

Secondly, the troops directly under the regiment acted separately.

The tank battalion and the guard company followed me and Deputy Head Zhou, and rushed to Xuyi County at the fastest speed.

Be sure to rush to Xuyi before the enemy cavalry, even if you can't make it, you must take back Xuyi County!

Artillery battalion, supply battalion, field hospital and regiment headquarters followed up!
The cavalry company headed east at full speed, rushed to the fifth infantry battalion, and cooperated with them to stop the enemy's mechanized troops in the direction of Yangzhou!
If the radio station contacts the first and second battalions, let them quickly go north to join the tank battalion and the guard company.

The third battalion and the fourth battalion set up defenses in the Tianma Lake area, ready to stop the pursuers from Lai'an! "

"Yes!" Liu Bohui quickly recorded Chen Liang's order, saluted, turned and left.

Xu Qingfeng said to Zhou Weiguo: "Weiguo, time is running out, let's get in the car quickly."

"Okay!" Zhou Weiguo also responded loudly, and he and Xu Qingfeng immediately got into a tank respectively.

After Xu Qingfeng climbed onto the tank, he turned his head and told Chen Qifeng: "All members of the guard company also get on the tank and follow suit!"

"Yes!" Chen Qifeng responded, and immediately ordered more than 100 guard company officers and soldiers to board the car.

So soon, the outside of the ten Sherman tanks was "full" with officers and soldiers of the guard company.

Following Xu Qingfeng's order, ten Sherman tanks, carrying hundreds of guard company officers and soldiers, left the regiment headquarters and the directly subordinate units like tigers coming out of their cages.

Rush north quickly!

……

At the same time, on the battlefield to block the enemy of Yangzhou.

Wang Bicheng and other officers and soldiers of the cavalry platoon, after paying the casualties of more than ten cavalry, finally distanced themselves from the devil counterattack troops.

Relying on the mobility of the cavalry, they were briefly out of battle.

The Japanese soldiers saw that the encirclement was about to form and were unwilling to give up.

So hundreds of devils immediately chased Wang Bicheng and the others desperately, but before they ran far, some devil soldiers accidentally triggered the two booby traps that Wang Bicheng and the others had planted before.

Boom!With the sound of two violent explosions, the two booby traps that Xiao Liuzi had no time to dismantle showed their final value.

Seven or eight Japanese infantrymen who were caught off guard were blown to the ground, killing half of them.

These two explosions also completely woke up the Japanese pursuers.

It was only then that the captains of the Devil Squadron who led the team realized that it was impossible for their two-legged infantry to catch up with the Chinese cavalry who had already started running.

So they all stopped again.

When Yamada Boteng saw that the opponent left the battlefield in time and escaped smoothly, he couldn't help being furious, and cursed repeatedly: "Baga, cunning Chinese! Damn it!"
