Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 779 Joint Operations (Third Update!)
"boom……"

The marching convoy stopped less than ten kilometers away with a violent explosion.

The chief of staff frowned and jumped off the co-pilot of the military vehicle. Just as he was about to speak, a series of more violent explosions came, deafening.

It lasted for half a minute before the explosion stopped intermittently.

A lieutenant whose military uniform sleeves were already stained red with blood rushed over, panting and reporting with a terrified face, "Sir, landmines, we encountered an electric mine from the Eighth Route Army and detonated it again!"

"A military vehicle full of artillery shells was bombed, and then the shells on the vehicle were detonated. There were too many shells on the vehicle, and they were blown up everywhere. A total of four military vehicles were not spared, followed by the shells that were killed. destroyed, the surrounding imperial army was also bombed, almost dead!"

"Nani?" Lost five military vehicles and all the equipment and ammunition on them at one time.Hearing this, the chief of staff waited impatiently, without saying a word, he raised his legs and hurried forward.

Soon, a tragic and bloody picture appeared in front of the chief of staff.

The five military vehicles were either blown over or burned ragingly. The roads in front of and behind the military vehicles were full of craters blown out by shells.At a glance, you can tell that the military vehicles blown up by the Eighth Route Army are loaded with mountain artillery shells.

That’s not to mention, on this nearly [-]-meter-long road, there were no less than a hundred corpses of the imperial army scattered here and there. The dead bodies are all pieced together!
"Bageyalu, the cunning Eighth Route Army, I want to kill them all!"

The captain of the cavalry brigade next to him immediately said: "Sir, I will send people to counterattack immediately, find and kill them!"

Unexpectedly, the chief of staff who was holding back his anger did not agree impulsively, but quickly calmed down and shook his head to answer.

"Calm down, don't be impulsive, this must be a conspiracy by the Eighth Route Army!"

Then he stared at the cavalry captain and asked, "Has the troops you sent out just now come back?"

"Not yet?" The team leader shook his head and replied, because it was the first time he had fought against Xinyituan, so he didn't realize that something was wrong.

The chief of staff frowned all of a sudden, and then replied in a heavy tone: "Baga! You haven't come back yet, something must have happened!"

"Even if the two troops are one mile apart, at the speed of the cavalry, they can catch up with the Eighth Route Army in at most 5 minutes, and then launch an attack directly. How long has passed now, and there is no news. Tell me, it's not because of an accident. what reason!"

The captain's face, which was still arrogant just now, suddenly turned pale.

The entire cavalry brigade has a total of more than 300 people, and the loss of two squads directly accounted for one-sixth of the total force.

More importantly, if the Eighth Route Army that attacked him could eat up two of his cavalry squadrons in such a short period of time, even if he sent a cavalry squadron over there, it would be equally dangerous and useless.

However, judging from the current situation, it is obviously impossible to send a cavalry squadron out when the enemy's situation is unknown.

After hesitating for a moment, he stared at the chief of staff and asked, "Sir, what should we do next!"

"Cavalry Brigade, strengthen your vigilance. From now on, search within 100 meters on both sides of the road, and try not to give the Eighth Route Army a chance to attack us!"

"The mixed brigade mobilizes an infantry squadron to cooperate. If there is a sneak attack from the Eighth Route Army, the infantry will cover and the cavalry will counterattack, and kill them with lightning speed, but the cavalry cannot go deep and chase them alone!"

"Engineering Squadron, Suitability Team, build the road immediately, we will continue to move forward after half an hour, and hurry back to Linfen City!"

"As long as we have this batch of equipment and ammunition, it won't take long for the brigade to return to full strength, and there will even be one more infantry brigade than before. Coupled with the reinforcements sent to us by the headquarters, we will It will definitely bloodbath the base of the Eighth Route Army and wipe out all the Eighth Route Army!"

The Chief of Staff held back his anger and had no place to vent his anger, but he was not impulsive and remained calm, knowing what was most important to him now.

Stopping and stopping all the way, the road that could have been covered in two hours took a total of four hours.

More importantly, the devils lost the equipment and ammunition of sixteen military vehicles, and also lost a cavalry squadron and most of the infantry squadron.

Of course, the guard company also suffered heavy losses under the joint counterattack of the devil cavalry and infantry.

An infantry platoon was wiped out in a sneak attack, and was hacked to death by devil cavalry with sabers.

Another infantry platoon reacted a little faster, but also suffered heavy losses.

"Your Excellency, General, I have failed your great trust, please apologise!" Seeing Major General Matsumoto, the chief of staff replied with his head down.

Matsumoto was not angry, but happily replied: "I already know the whole battle process, Chief of Staff, you did a good job!"

"In addition, I have ordered all the garrisons along the road to strengthen their vigilance and defense. As long as they find the Eighth Route Army attacking you, immediately counterattack and kill them!"

The chief of staff looked quite good, but soon showed a helpless expression.

"Thank you, General, for your trust. However, the Eighth Route Army is too cunning, and there are not many of them. Now it's getting dark again, so we can't catch them!"

Matsumoto's face became sad.

But it didn't take long before he regained his senses, stared at the chief of staff and replied confidently: "Don't worry, with the equipment and ammunition you just brought back, even if those cunning Eighth Route Army run away now, they won't be able to escape the imperial army in the end." Revenge on them!"

"I looked at the list of remaining weapons and ammunition. The main loss is ammunition, and the loss of weapons is not very serious. And our brigade originally had some weapons in stock!"

"With these equipments, we can not only make all the garrisons reach full strength, but also guarantee the full strength of the five infantry brigades!"

"In addition to the infantry regiment that the headquarters will send over soon, our special brigade will definitely be able to wipe out the Eighth Route Army in Linfen!"

The heavy losses of the new regiment headquarters and the guard company in Sanquan Town did not surprise Wang Ping.

After all, this time the devils are fighting jointly, not only infantry, but also cavalry and armored soldiers.

I have been in Xinyituan for so long, and this is the first time I have encountered such a devil.If the political commissar and the chief of staff hadn't objected, Wang Ping would have gone over to confront them in person.

Now it seems that the powerful combat effectiveness of the joint operations between the devil's various units is indeed beyond the comparison of the infantry alone.

The guard company is the most powerful unit in the new regiment besides the directly subordinate team and the reconnaissance platoon. It is well-equipped, and it is only a sneak attack. It lost so many people in just four hours.Wang Ping didn't dare to imagine that if the devils gathered heavy troops and sent such a joint force to attack the base area, whether the base area would be able to withstand it.

After thinking for a long time, Wang Ping only thought of one solution, that is, an eye for an eye!
Devils have cavalry, and they also form cavalry themselves.

Thinking of the more than 30 intact horses brought back by Hong Ruijun and all the equipment of the two devil cavalry squads, Wang Ping strengthened his determination to form a cavalry.
