Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 816 World War II Zone Command (third update!)
As in the daytime, the three-round shells stopped after only three rounds.

Just when Major General Kawaguchi was about to breathe a sigh of relief, an accident happened.

Because the artillery positions exposed by the Eighth Route Army were less than three miles away from their garrison, if the cavalry made a quick assault, they could kill them in less than a minute.

Even if the artillery of the Eighth Route Army retreated at that time, the cavalry could quickly catch up with them and kill them.

Therefore, when they attacked, they did not wait for the cooperating infantry squadron to dispatch together, but planned to monopolize the combat exploits.

"The shelling has stopped, the Eighth Route Army must want to run again! Kill them immediately!" The squadron leader of the Devil Cavalry Squadron shouted excitedly and anxiously, fearing that the fat he bit into his mouth would slip away again.

Then he swung his saber, kicked the horse under his crotch, and continued to urge the horse to charge forward.

"Da da da……"

Suddenly, at least ten tongues of flame spewed out from the still pitch-black artillery position, forming a semicircle in front of them, and then the intensive gunfire reached the squadron leader's ears.

The night was shrouded in darkness, and the leader of the Devil Squadron could clearly see the trajectories of bullets flying across the sky, like meteors passing by in a flash.

And it was precisely because he could clearly see the trajectory of the bullet that the squadron leader's face turned pale.

The trajectories are intertwined with each other, directly forming a visible firepower net, blocking the front.

Before the squadron leader could react, the screams reached his ears.

Many of the cavalry rushing forward fell on the charge road together with their horses.

"Baga, we were fooled. There is an Eighth Route Army blocking position here, and they have a lot of machine guns!" The squadron leader shouted angrily.

But soon he calmed down: "Don't be afraid, keep going forward."

"The Eighth Route Army is equipped with light machine guns with a short range. They are only 100 meters away. As long as we continue to charge, we will definitely be able to kill them!"

"Warriors, continue to charge. Those standing in front of us must be the elite of the Eighth Route Army, otherwise it would be impossible to equip so many machine guns. Charge up and kill them!"

The ghost cavalry reacted quickly, lying tightly on the horse's back, trying to minimize the area where they were shot.

Then hold the gun with one hand, and counterattack while rushing.

It has to be said that these devils are truly elite.

Riding on a bumpy horse and attacking forward, holding a gun with one hand, and shooting with just simple aiming, you can still bite the meat with a gun.

Amidst the sound of roaring horseshoes, gunshots continued to ring out.The light machine gun that was constantly spitting flames forward in front of them, under the counterattack of these devils, kept misfiring!
The morale of the devil cavalry immediately became high, and they seized the opportunity and rushed forward desperately.

50 meters, as long as they insist on seven or eight sticks, they will be able to enter the Eighth Route Army's position, ravage the Eighth Route Army's position with a saber, and wipe out all the Eighth Route Army.

Suddenly, there were at least twice as many flames in front of him.

The firepower network formed by the swishing bullets can already be described as impenetrable.

At this time, it would be very difficult for the little devil's remaining cavalry to charge even a step forward, and they would have to pay the price in blood.

"It's over..." The sudden increase in firepower shattered the squadron leader's dream of entering the Eighth Route Army's position, and then a very bad premonition popped up in his mind.

"It's a submachine gun. The Eighth Route Army is equipped with at least twenty submachine guns... Sir, their firepower is too strong, we can't get through it at all!"

The squadron leader was frightened, but did not lose his mind.

A murderous aura quickly emanated from his body, he gritted his teeth and ordered: "Continue to charge forward... retreat now, all of us will die, we can't retreat at all. There is still a chance to charge forward. A few Eighth Route Army soldiers will be buried with us!"

"Warriors, for the sake of victory, for the sake of the emperor, continue to rush~ kill!"

In less than a minute, the intensive gunfire stopped, and the Devil Cavalry Squadron was finished.

Because of the darkness, their combat effectiveness was not fully utilized, and even only 20% to [-]% of the usual level, but even so, they still caused nearly [-] casualties to Li Wen's troops.

However, for Li Wen, being able to kill a cavalry squadron of devils is definitely a very cost-effective loss.

Not only did he give the devil a slap in the face so that he would not dare to advance aggressively in the next operation, but he also captured dozens of war horses, making it easier for the troops to carry out the next operation and sneak attack.

"General, the Second Squadron of the Cavalry Brigade was completely wiped out by the Eighth Route Army...all the living horses and equipment were taken away by them!" the adjutant, Major Ikeda, reported solemnly.

The gunfire outside the station ended, and Major General Kawaguchi realized the result.

However, when he actually heard the result, he was still frightened, and he was stunned for several seconds before he realized it!
He frowned and ordered: "Pass my order, if the station is attacked again, directly counterattack with mortars!"

"All the mortar squadrons under the various brigades are used together to cover the exposed mortar positions and surrounding areas of the Eighth Route Army!"

"Warning post, patrol team, strengthen security, and expand the security range to one kilometer around the station!"

"It is not suitable for cavalry to fight at night, and then they are attacked by the Eighth Route Army, and the infantry will attack. Each time a mixed squadron is dispatched, plus a heavy machine gun squad and a mortar squad!"

The absolute superiority of troops gave Major General Kawaguchi a lot of means to counterattack.

But even so, Major General Kawaguchi didn't have a good rest almost all night in the face of the artillery shells fired by the Eighth Route Army from time to time.

At the Xinyi Regiment Headquarters in Sanquan Town, Wang Ping, who ended the battle in Xiangfen, only stayed for two days before returning.

The reason why he was so anxious was because he was always thinking about the 1 yuan ocean promised by Chongqing and the equipment and ammunition for a regiment.

After much deliberation, Wang Ping decided to take a parent-child visit to the World War II zone headquarters.

On the one hand, it was to get back the ocean and equipment that belonged to him, and there was another purpose that Wang Ping suddenly thought of, to do business in the World War II zone.

After hearing Wang Ping's idea, political commissar Huang Yuanqiang refused without thinking about it.

"Regimental Commander, please fool me! The World War II zone is not our Eighth Route Army. They want money, money, and equipment. Our Eighth Route Army is poor and has nothing. I really can't think of anything in our hands that can be seen in the World War II zone." Come on, do business with us!"

"Also, it's too dangerous to cross the devil's blockade to go to the World War II zone. As a political commissar, I firmly oppose your going there!"

"If you really want to go to the World War II Zone Command to ask for this batch of equipment, you can just send someone there. You are the regiment leader, and you must not take any risks!"
