Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 254 Cavalry company, attack! (First update!)

The Chief of Staff analyzed after taking a deep breath.

"General, I'm not reconciled either. However, compared to the Independent Regiment, the equipment and materials stored in Laiyuan City and Laiyuan City are more important to us, and they must not be taken away by the Eighth Route Army."

As the garrison commander of the Japanese army in Laiyuan City, Ono knew better than anyone else how many kinds of equipment and supplies there were in Laiyuan City.

As a traffic artery, a large amount of equipment and materials seized by the imperial army in the frontline battles were transported by road to Laiyuan City for temporary storage when the railway was destroyed by the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army, and then passed through Laiyuan City as a temporary transit Station and then transported to the rear.

The chief of staff was right just now, even if he insisted on destroying the independent regiment.

But as long as the Eighth Route Army takes the opportunity to take down Laiyuan City, with the equipment of Laiyuan City, they can immediately form at least three independent regiments to continue fighting against the imperial army, and the gains outweigh the losses.

"Bageya Road!" An angry Ono cursed again.

Although he was very unwilling, but for the sake of the overall situation, Ono could only calm himself down, and then ordered decisively.

"Then retreat! Chief of Staff, is it possible to divide the troops and leave some people to continue the attack and fight a decisive battle with the independent regiment. Part of the imperial army will return to Laiyuan City at night to drive away the Eighth Route Army that attacked Laiyuan City!"

"No!" The Chief of Staff shook his head in denial.

"General, our troops, especially the combat troops, are running out. If we divide our troops further, we will be easily defeated by the Eighth Route Army!"

"Then go back to assist Laiyuan City, chief of staff, and give an order immediately to return to assist Laiyuan City in the shortest time!" Ono no longer hesitated, and ordered very decisively.

"Also, inform our troops that are active outside the mountain to gather immediately. Although they are close to Laiyuan City, they are too scattered, and they must gather their forces before they can leave!"

After taking away one infantry squadron, the Japanese still had three infantry squadrons, one artillery squadron, and one heavy machine gun squadron outside the mountain.

Attack each other at four or five intervals, with two infantry squads plus one artillery squad, and one heavy machine gun squad as units, scattered and stationed outside the mountain.

After receiving the assembly order, the captain immediately dispatched messengers to ask the troops to assemble in the direction of the mountain pass, and then he himself brought less than two hundred devils to the mountain pass in mighty force.

Ma Ronghe, the cavalry company commander of the Independent Regiment, was born in the Northwest Army, a veritable cavalry background.

The Red Army joined the Red Army after they arrived in northern Shaanxi, because the Red Army lacked guns and ammunition at that time, and it was impossible to form a cavalry unit.

Ma Ronghe, who was born as a cavalry, could only leave the cavalry and switch to infantry.

Now he was excavated by Wang Ping and served as the commander of the cavalry company. Not only did Ma Ronghe regain his cavalry status, but his position was like riding a rocket. Deputy battalion cadre.

Because the independent regiment fought with the Japanese army and seized a lot, it not only wiped out a cavalry brigade of the Japanese army, but also wiped out many devil cavalry scattered here and there.

Therefore, the horses and equipment that can be used to form cavalry are very sufficient. If allowed, it is possible to form a cavalry battalion.

However, Wang Ping only gave Ma Ronghe the establishment of a cavalry company. In his opinion, any army is more expensive than numerous, especially cavalry troops.

As a veteran cavalryman, Ma Ronghe knew the characteristics of cavalry better than anyone else. It was difficult to train, the battle was fierce, and the casualties were heavy.And under normal circumstances, casualties basically mean sacrifices.

In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the cavalry company, although Wang Ping only gave himself a cavalry company of 100 people, Ma Ronghe recruited more than 150 cavalry.

In the words of Ma Ronghe, since training is necessary, more people should be recruited to train so that everyone can form combat effectiveness, and then pick out the best trained ones to join the cavalry company, and the rest will be used as substitutes. Once the cavalry company suffers losses in combat, immediately Supplement it in to ensure the combat effectiveness of the cavalry company without spending a lot of time retraining the supplementary cavalry.

Both Wang Ping and political commissar Cheng Xiao agreed. In the end, in order to ensure the training of the cavalry company, almost all the horses that could be used by the independent regiment were drawn and handed over to Ma Ronghe.

As of today, the cavalry company has been established for nearly two months.

Although two months of high-intensity training cannot train infantry into elite cavalry.However, charging with a horse, shooting from horseback, chopping... These most basic cavalry tactical actions, everyone in the cavalry company is very proficient, and they screamed to the company commander Ma Ronghe, and pulled them out to find the devils to try their hands .

After finally waiting for the order from the regiment headquarters, not only Ma Ronghe was very happy, but also more than 100 cavalrymen under him.

The Japanese army closest to the mountain pass where the Japanese army assembled was directly selected by Ma Ronghe, and became the first test stone since the establishment of the cavalry company.

"Platoon leader Yang, take the four machine guns in the company and rush to the front of the devils, and use guerrilla warfare to kill the devils' machine gunners from a long distance!" Staring at the eager subordinates in front of him, Ma Ronghe directly began to give orders.

"The cavalry are most afraid of machine guns. This group of devils is equipped with three heavy machine guns and four light machine guns. As long as their heavy machine gunners are killed and the heavy machine guns are useless, the remaining infantry and artillery are nothing in the eyes of our cavalry. The lambs waiting to be slaughtered, we can eat them as we want!"

The soldiers of the cavalry company are all from infantry, and the cadres are all the original backbone of the infantry.

Although they became cavalry, they did not forget the guerrilla warfare that infantry was best at.

In addition, now with the help of war horses, the platoon leader is even more confident in fighting guerrilla warfare with the devils.He accepted the task without saying anything, and then a dozen cavalrymen left the temporary station of the cavalry company with a roar.

The troops led by the captain of the Japanese army were the closest to Luojiawan on the mountain pass, because everyone was waking up in their sleep to rush on the road, and they were very tired.Therefore, the team of nearly 200 people did not have much vigilance.

After all, they had not been attacked in the two days they were stationed outside the mountain. After a long time, everyone became lazy.

"Captain, it's less than three kilometers away from Luojia Bay!" The deputy captain reminded with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.

"Yo Xi, order the troops to speed up, and try to rest for another hour when they arrive at the place. The troops are too tired, and if they encounter the enemy, they will suffer a lot!" The captain ordered with a frown.

"Da da da..." As soon as the command was issued, a burst of gunshots came.

The captain, who was still a little confused just now, suddenly woke up.

First, he turned over and jumped off the horse, and then lay down on the ground under the protection of the guards.

"Ba Geya Road, it must be the Eighth Route Army guerrillas. Captain, they will use machine guns to attack us from a long distance!" The deputy captain who was thrown next to him was very dissatisfied.

The captain didn't talk nonsense, and gave orders directly with anger!
"The artillery counterattack immediately, kill these cunning raiders!"

Soon, the machine gun that attacked them misfired in the explosion, and the devils who lost more than a dozen people continued to move forward.

After walking less than 500 meters, he was attacked again.

Although the sneak attack time was shorter than before, more than a dozen devils were killed and wounded in the end because they were attacked by machine guns.
