blood feud

A series of violent explosions came from behind, and Bai Shujie's six horses had crossed the Shaliu River and headed north into the mountains.He is now taking turns commanding five Dongyang horses, even if they run away to death, he doesn't feel bad.Let Wanli Wuyun Zou follow behind, in order to regain physical strength and fight again.

At 05:30 in the morning, the east had already started to turn white, and the land was hazy, and the topography could barely be seen clearly. Bai Shujie finally arrived at the first meeting point "Tiger Ridge".Xiao Lamei was walking back and forth between the two machine guns on duty, looking restless.

Seeing that Xiao Lamei was on alert, and there was a danger of giving the order to shoot at any moment, Bai Shujie hurriedly shouted: "Don't worry, Lamei, I'm back!"

"Oh, I'm so anxious!" Xiao Lamei was already in front of Bai Shujie's horse in a flash, and supported Bai Shujie off the horse with both hands: "What did you do alone, the soldiers have been back for a long time."

"It's nothing, I took the little devil's cavalry for a walk." Bai Shujie waved his hand, and then asked in a low voice: "Has everyone rested? How is the situation?"

"It's nothing, everyone is calm." Xiao Lamei also said in a low voice: "This time is very weird. No one was injured. A total of 113 people were sacrificed, including five platoon leaders and deputy platoon leaders. The deputy company commander Yan Chongde wanted to protect Wang Xinlan and the radio station. Sacrifice too!"

"This blood debt must be firmly remembered, and the little devil will be paid back immediately!" Although Bai Shujie was in pain, he could only grit his teeth now: "Being bombed by cannons, or directly sacrificed, the possibility of being injured Very small. Where are they all, let Zhong Guitang come and see me immediately!"

Seeing Zhong Guitang approaching with red eyes, Bai Shujie said in a deep voice: "Time is running out, we are not out of danger yet. Don't talk nonsense, just report the current specific situation!"

"The battle lost 113 combat troops and 117 horses; 9 machine guns were blown up, one mortar was destroyed, and three grenade launchers were lost." Zhong Guitang said in a low voice: "Five crooked machine guns were seized in the battle, 5 grenadiers and related ammunition. At present, the soldiers are emotionally stable, and hatred is contained in their hearts."

Bai Shujie nodded, and then said: "The heroes are not far away, I will avenge them now! I brought back five war horses, which should be enough. If not enough, I will use the pack horses to deal with them for a while, and soon there will be more. Solved! Immediately notify everyone to check the equipment, and attack on time at six o'clock."

At 472:[-], [-] people were fully armed and gathered in front of Bai Shujie.Although no one made a sound, everyone's face was full of grief and indignation.

"Brothers, we lost a big battle last night! Because of my improper command, more than 100 brothers died!" Bai Shujie looked at all the soldiers before continuing: "But there is no need for us to be discouraged. I will take the You go and avenge your brothers, and let the little devil pay with blood!"

"This time we dispatched at the same time. The first company was at the rear, and the second company and the guard company followed me to lead the battle. All the cooking squads and logistics squads served as the central army, under the command of Xiao Lamei. The main task was to snatch the little devil's horses and supplies. The three groups Keep a distance of 100 meters between them, today we will rush out during the day and catch the little devil by surprise!"

Under the cover of the forest, Bai Shujie led two companies of more than [-] people down the mountain, walked around three miles behind Xuejiatun, and saw through the binoculars hundreds of horses circled together.The village is already filled with smoke and voices.

Needless to say, the little devil's cavalry did not rest in the town for the convenience of supplies, but came to the village north of the Shaliu River.

"Xiao Lamei is going to grab the horses, the troops in the rear will be the guards on the battlefield, and the troops in the vanguard will follow me!"

Bai Shujie drew out his machine gun and ran out first. He trotted along the country road, and soon approached within 500 meters of Xuejiatun. The two on-duty machine guns on the east and west sides of the village could already be seen clearly.

I don't know why, but the machine gun team usually has three people, but now there is only one person.Bai Shujie watched carefully with binoculars for a long time, and found that the two machine guns did not pay attention to the north, but focused all their attention on the horses!

This opportunity is really rare, Bai Shujie swung his left hand: "Get ready with two mortars, knock out the little devil's machine guns, and drive the big army of little devils out of the village! Prepare all the machine guns and divide them into three arrows. Once the little devils rush out , launch a surprise attack immediately! Fire!"

Pass!Pass!

It is not difficult for mortars to strike enemies within 500 meters.The two mortars were not adjusted at all, and they fired three rapid shots directly, and the whole process took less than 15 seconds!

There was a sudden earth-shattering explosion early in the morning, and Xuejiatun was immediately shaken.The common people naturally looked for places to hide, but the little devils couldn't, because the war horses were all on the edge of the village.The cavalry warriors of the Empire are nothing without their horses!

The little devil rushed out of the village in panic, and what greeted them was Bai Shujie's three sharp knives, which were three-pronged approach of hugging the head, pinching the tail, and hitting the waist!A total of 72 machine guns were divided into three assault groups to kill, and immediately separated the little devil from the war horse.Waiting until the little devil wants to return to the village to fight in a corner, it is already impossible.

All the soldiers in the advance battalion were full of anger last night.Now that the sky is bright and the little devils have been routed, the absolute superiority of cavalry against infantry is fully revealed on this flat ground!

More than 700 little devil cavalry without horses, relying only on the carbine and a few crooked machine guns in their hands, could not turn around to meet the enemy.We had no choice but to break out of the siege in the direction of Yutian County, try to join the infantry brigade, and then think about it.

Bai Shujie gave an order, and the guard company and the second company immediately chased the enemy for five kilometers in squads, then went straight to the Shaliu River and occupied it, opening the way for the troops to go south.

The little devil really has no defenses!Especially after finishing the chase, the sweat on the horse's back was still wet, so the little devil never dreamed that there would be such a powerful force suddenly attacking.

Because after the cavalry chased the enemy, the little devil's infantry brigade carefully inspected the entire battlefield and dug up the remains of the soldiers temporarily buried by Zhong Guitang and the others. 113 people were killed, and there were also scraps of machine guns and mortars.

According to the information provided by the Kwantung Army Commander's Headquarters, the total number of "revenge teams" should be between 150 and 240 people.After this battle, the Vengeance Team has basically been "annihilated", so they only saw a "leaker" before, so there shouldn't be any threat!

When Umezu Yoshijiro received the news from the Yoshida Brigade, he was immediately elated: This battle has killed at least half of the "Revenge Team", and that is definitely a brilliant result.The garrison troops were finally able to feel proud and avenged the Xifengkou Fortress!

If more than half of an army is lost, it will be impossible to regain combat effectiveness within three to five months.Because of this, the current army of little devils is mainly on guard, preparing for the final encirclement and suppression of the northern mountainous area after dawn, completely destroying the "revenge team", erasing this designation from sight, and completely disappearing the nightmare of the empire!

Xiao Lamei and Wang Xinlan were the busiest people leading three cooking teams and one logistics team. The little devil ran away, but there were too many things left behind.Fortunately, there are now more than 700 war horses, and no matter what is in the wooden box or the big bag, they will take all that can be taken away.

Just like that, nearly a thousand war horses rushed straight into the Shaliu River like a torrent.A squad from the Little Devil Yoshida Brigade served as a guard here. After being flanked by the guard company and the second company, it collapsed immediately. Just after rushing out of the town, it was submerged among more than 700 war horses.

The horses are so powerful when they are in groups. Although there is no rider, the huge impact of the horses is enough to destroy everything!

The troops behind Zhong Guitang followed up and found that the thirty or so little devils had all been turned into meat paste.All the rifles had been trampled off, and the only two machine guns had been trampled so badly by the horses that they were useless at all.

On the main road to the east of the Shaliu River, Bai Shujie stood on horseback and acted as a temporary traffic policeman: "Everyone, don't stop, go at full speed according to yesterday's route map! Adjust the queue in time during the march, and everyone is on one person and two horses. After passing Yangjiatao goes straight to the southwest, and today it must be inserted between Tianjin and Langfang!"

In broad daylight, a torrent of more than 1000 war horses just swaggered through the market.When Umezu Yoshijiro got the news, Bai Shujie and others had arrived at Zhouliangzhuang, [-] kilometers southwest of Yutian County, less than a hundred miles away from the North Gate of Tianjin!Especially the news from the front said: "It is a powerful cavalry force of more than a thousand people rushing to Tianjin!"

Umezu Yoshijiro’s shock was no small matter, and he hurriedly made phone calls and sent telegrams in two ways: “Order: The garrison garrison immediately seals off the city gate of Tianjin, the heavy artillery unit assists in the defense, and the gendarmerie immediately suppresses the entire city. No matter who, not myself Unauthorized attack is never allowed!"

Just kidding, the main force of the garrison troops has all been pulled out.If two brigades of cavalry rushed into the city, Tianjin as a whole would not be Tianjin for the empire, it would be hell on earth!

There was a vicious incident of "bloodbath Tianjin City" last time, so Yoshijiro Umezu was able to take over the post of commander of the garrison army!It's only been three months, and now the buttocks are not hot in the position of commander, Umezu Yoshijiro will never allow it to happen again!

Bai Shujie didn't know about the little devil's formation and countermeasures.But this time he learned his lesson and ordered the second company to dispatch all of them in advance to break away from the main force and advance at a high speed.One of the platoons went straight to Dazhangzhuang in the north of Tianjin, the other platoon rushed to Chagu Port in the northwest of Tianjin, and the remaining platoon immediately attacked southwest and occupied the "East Horse Circle" [-] kilometers east of Langfang!

Bai Shujie's series of actions were quickly reported to Umezu Yoshijiro's desk: "The three Chinese cavalry squadrons raided the Dazhangzhuang line at the north gate of Tianjin, the Chagu port line at the Ximen gate, and the Dongmaquan line at the east gate of Langfang respectively. The troops are approaching at an accelerated rate, and the main attack direction is unknown at present!"

After all, what happens next, let's see the breakdown in the next chapter.
