Chapter 233 Cavalry Battle! (Subscribe! Monthly Ticket!)

When at least 50 submachine guns were leveled more than 100 meters away, and the muzzles spurted out a torrent of hot metal that could burn your eyes.

Fujihara Ichi, who swiftly hid his body under the belly of the horse, finally understood.

He understood where his previous palpitations came from. Abnormal things are demons. No matter how stupid the Chinese are, they will not slow down their horses and wait to be slaughtered. They control the speed of their horses at medium and low speeds just to ensure that their muzzles can be level and stable.

There are more than 50 German machine guns, the most terrifying single-soldier continuous-fire firearms on the Chinese battlefield.

In the northern battlefield, the Imperial Army has suffered from this weapon.

However, the Chinese are not capable of equipping all of them with this automatic firearm. Only the most elite Chinese troops have it.

But the cavalry has this weapon, and it is still a large-scale organization, which is the first time on the battlefield.

That's right, although the submachine gun has fierce firepower, its range is too short, only a hundred meters away. For a cavalry duel, the opponent with the highest horse speed can rush to the full speed in just one breath.

Therefore, very few cavalry are equipped with submachine guns, and most of them are cavalry rifles with longer range, so that they can enter the saber duel stage after shooting.

However, Tang Dao took a different approach. After a cavalry company escorted the artillery into the city, he specifically found Lieutenant General Wu and asked him to withdraw at least half of the submachine guns equipped by the guard battalion directly under the general headquarters for him to allocate.

Then, Tang Dao, who had already had a brilliant record of destroying three gunboats and 400 Japanese infantry, found Gong Shaoxun with 55 submachine guns and directly threw the single-shot bolt-action cavalry rifle aside.

Deputy Director Tang's idea was too wild. When Gong Shaoxun and the two cavalry company commanders were still a little confused, two cavalrymen ran back from the riverside, followed by a large number of Japanese cavalrymen.

The combat power of three cavalry companies is roughly equal to that of a Japanese cavalry squadron. There is no reason to run away. If you can't run, you can only fight. The submachine gun sent by Deputy Director Tang is the only weapon that can reduce your own casualties while still bringing enough damage to the unsuspecting opponent.

Although Gong Shaoxun has never done this before, he can only bite the bullet and accompany Deputy Director Tang to fight the Japanese cavalry.

What does it look like when more than 50 submachine guns fire at the same time?

From the perspective of the young cavalry following behind, they only saw the smoke rising from the submachine guns when they fired, covering the backs of their comrades.

That's more than hundreds of rounds of concentrated fire per second.

A long magazine of MP28 has 32 rounds of bullets. Tang Dao's order is to shoot out the bullets in the shortest time, abandon the gun, draw the saber, and face the enemy.

In just four seconds, the Chinese cavalrymen who were turning their horses' heads to the two wings emptied their submachine guns, threw down their guns without a care, drew their sabers, and clamped their legs around the horses' bellies, waiting to meet the fierce collision and cold sword light of the Japanese cavalry rushing towards them.

The Japanese cavalry 120 meters away were knocked over by the sudden metal torrent.

In fact, it didn't matter whether they hid or not, whether they could survive or not depended on fate.

The Chinese cavalrymen moving on horseback had no intention of aiming at all, holding their submachine guns horizontally and holding the trigger tightly, and they fired a burst of bullets.

The 16,000 bullets that rushed out were not for shooting people, but for shooting horses.

The 9mm caliber Luger bullet hit the horse's body, leaving a bloody hole, and even a horse hit by several bullets, even a tall and strong Japanese horse could not withstand such a blow.

I don't know how many war horses rushed out dozens of meters due to inertia and fell down with a miserable neigh. I don't know how many war horses fell to the ground with the cavalry on them, and then tripped their companions who were unable to dodge.

The Japanese cavalry formation, which was originally as fierce as a stormy wave, was instantly shattered.

But the submachine gun that relies on probability to kill people and horses is not omnipotent. If there is a probability of killing, there is a probability of survival.

The smoke and dust raised by the horse's hooves enveloped the figures of the Japanese cavalry, until the first, second, and third Japanese soldiers raised their sabers and rushed into the Chinese cavalry formation that was still moving to the flank.

'Dang! Dang! ' The metal friction sound at the moment when the sword light touched made people want to cover their ears.

The Japanese cavalry who rushed over at high speed had the advantage of speed, and the tall Oriental horses had a natural advantage in weight. Once they collided with the Chinese cavalry, the Chinese war horses were often knocked away, and the cavalry and the horses fell down.

The three rows of cavalry were killed by the Japanese cavalry. The horses led the Japanese cavalry to run at high speed for 70 to 80 meters before slowly slowing down and turning their heads to face the Chinese cavalry who also turned their heads.

At the moment of close combat, at least 20 Chinese cavalry fell, while the Japanese fell only 7 or 8 at most. From the perspective of the casualties of both sides, the Japanese cavalry had the advantage.

However, as the commander, Fujihara Ichi had no joy at all. Looking at the less than 30 cavalrymen on his left and right, he was filled with great regret.

An entire cavalry squadron, including 98 people, lost more than two-thirds of its troops after a charge.

Half of the people did not fall under the blades of the Chinese, but died under the muzzles of the Chinese. The reason was that he was too arrogant.

His arrogance did not underestimate the Chinese, but he made an extremely fatal mistake and overestimated himself.

Since this group of Chinese dared to leave the city to ambush three gunboats with terrible naval guns, how could they be afraid of his cavalry squadron?

Perhaps they had never thought about escaping from the beginning. In fact, they already knew that the imperial cavalry would be scouting along the river bank, and they had already set up their formations to wait for the arrival of themselves and others.

A large number of terrifying submachine guns were the gifts they had prepared, which were enough to make up for their shortcomings in horses and mounted combat.

After all, he still took it a little too much for granted.

Unfortunately, no matter how much he regrets, it is useless. What he has to do now is to lead the last remaining group of people to safeguard the honor of the Imperial Army Cavalry, kill through the enemy's formation again, and leave indelible scars on the opponent.

Even though the opponent's strength is more than three times his.

Even if the distance between the two sides is less than 100 meters, their horse speed will be on the same starting line.

The opponent's submachine gun should have fired empty bullets. In mounted combat, the great Imperial Cavalry will not be afraid of any opponent.

The moment Fujihara fell into self-blame and mustered up the courage to slowly point his saber forward, the Chinese cavalry were also secretly shocked.

They had dealt with the Japanese army on the North China battlefield, and had also fought with the Japanese cavalry on a small scale, but the combat effectiveness of the Japanese cavalry in front of them still exceeded their imagination.

Under the concentrated fire of submachine guns, only a small half of the remaining cavalry were able to escape the barrage. However, these more than 40 cavalrymen caused more than 20 casualties to the two cavalry companies on their side. If they killed all the troops, It’s really hard to imagine what kind of damage it will cause if it comes over.

The young cavalryman had no time to be frightened. He was busy bandaging the wound of the pale squad leader beside him.

The veteran's left arm was broken at the elbow. It was the work of a Japanese officer. If the veteran hadn't reacted quickly enough, he rode over and blocked the Japanese officer's sharp saber with his left arm, I'm afraid it would have fallen to the ground. Half of an arm, but the head of a young cavalryman.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I'm useless." The young cavalryman choked and wrapped a bandage around the veteran's horrific wound.

He tried to block the bleeding wound, but it was obviously in vain.

The broken arm was bleeding almost like a fountain. Perhaps within a few minutes, the veteran would fall into a coma and die due to excessive bleeding.

The old soldier's face turned pale with pain and he was sweating profusely, but he grinned with difficulty, "Don't cry, kid, the battle is not over yet! When the battle is over, it won't be too late for you to cry after I die. Don't be so annoying, hurry up and give it to me." Tie it up."

It was also Tang Dao's first time to experience a mounted battle, and it was the first time that China's strongest soldier felt the terror of blades clashing at high speed.

Because he was at the front of the Chinese cavalry formation, at least two Japanese cavalry were rushing towards him.

Fortunately, Tang Dao, who had completely controlled his body, had a neurological reaction far beyond that of ordinary people. In this type of combat, which he was not familiar with and was not good at, he still avoided the opponent's sword and successfully sent the saber into the opponent's waist and abdomen.

However, for the first time in this era, he missed. The huge momentum forced him to give up his sword to avoid being dismounted by the horse passing by at high speed. As a result, he was unable to kill the second Japanese soldier and could only watch helplessly. Watching the Japanese soldier break into the formation, chop down a comrade on the cavalry with his sword, and finally break out of the formation.

It seems that I am still more suitable as an infantryman!

With a bit of melancholy, Tang Dao took out his rifle from his rifle pouch, inserted the bayonet on his waist into the bayonet, and then

"shot!"……
