    Chapter 72: The Japs Cavalry Comes to the Door

    It¡¯s dawn in the east, the thin morning light breaks through the dark night, and dawn arrives.

    The sound of gunfire on the battlefield that was fiercely fought all night has faded away, the burning fire has dimmed, and only the lingering smoke is still filling the air. Sporadic gunfire sounds from time to time, which is the soldiers clearing out the remaining enemies.

    Bodies in khaki military uniforms covered the valley bottom, and body parts and fragments could be seen everywhere. The tanks and armored vehicles that had committed atrocities last night had been burned into lumps of iron. In the morning light, there was an ugly dark color, and the white snow in the valley had long disappeared.  The rubble and black soil turned up after the explosion were everywhere, but they were stained with dark red blood.

    The Okazaki Crusade Team and Liu Yanwang's Lao Seventh Regiment in the encirclement were completely crippled. After a night of fierce firepower and saturation strikes, more than 3,000 soldiers could no longer see the sun today.

    Tang Qiuli noticed that there were several natural shelters in a corner of the valley, where the gunfire was the fiercest and the enemy still had nearly a thousand troops.

    There is no suspense in the battle. It is only a matter of time before the entire Japanese army is annihilated. What remains is how to deal with the remaining Japanese soldiers with minimal casualties.

    The sun has risen, and thousands of rays of rays of light are shining on the earth. After a night of fierce fighting, the soldiers are still full of energy and have no fatigue. The joy of victory fills their hearts.

    Bathed in the warm sunshine and taking a deep breath of the sweet air full of gunpowder smoke, Tang Qiuli reminded the commanders of each brigade not to be careless. After a night of fighting, the ammunition of each unit had been almost exhausted. He ordered Zhou Yushan  Replenish ammunition for each unit immediately, and there will be fierce battles in a while.

    The Japs are unwilling to be wiped out like this. They will fight even if they are trapped. Dogs will jump over the wall if they are anxious. What¡¯s more, this is a pack of wolves. Don¡¯t be bitten by the Japs before they die, because the captains of all the brigade have asked for a fight and want to rush down the mountain to eliminate the remaining ones.  "Japs," Tang Qiuli severely criticized these commanders. The battle has reached this point, and a few shells and bullets are exchanged for the lives of the soldiers. This is a loss-making business that cannot be done!

    He gave Li Honggang, Su Jingfeng and Han Tie strict orders. Without his orders, the troops would never be allowed to attack without authorization. Violators would be severely punished!

    It¡¯s past seven o¡¯clock in the morning. Logically speaking, the Japs should organize a breakout. It¡¯s best to leave the hiding place with complex terrain. This is the last chance to eliminate the remaining Japs, but why haven¡¯t the Japs made any move yet?

    Tang Qiuli suddenly thought of a question. It was certain that the Japanese were waiting for reinforcements, but the reinforcements were too far away, so he just waited like this?  No, Okazaki must be waiting for the plane, so he can break out and meet the Japanese reinforcements under the cover of the plane!  So cunning!

    He immediately ordered Su Jingfeng and Han Tie on the highlands on both sides to organize anti-air firepower. One heavy machine gun was equipped with three light machine guns to form a plum blossom formation at the commanding heights. He also specifically explained the essentials for fighting Japanese aircraft.  Open fire when the planes dive before dropping bombs. Concentrate all the firepower on one plane, shoot it down, and then shoot down the other planes. Never shoot at the sight of the enemy planes. There is no way. Soldiers have never seen planes before, let alone  Talk about masturbating!  It¡¯s really not a good idea if it¡¯s not wordy!

    In the encirclement, Okazaki was in a state of panic. Over the course of one night, his thick stubble covered his big mouth with gold teeth, his small red eyes showed a fierce light, his arms were slung with bandages, and his face was covered in gunpowder smoke.  Like a little devil, the straight-line Colonel's military uniform has turned into a beggar's uniform. The majesty of the Japanese Imperial Army has long been beaten back to his hometown in Japan by Chinese artillery fire.

    There has always been a doubt in his mind. Where did this weapon come from? It has such ferocious firepower and sophisticated equipment?  There shouldn't be any Chinese bases in Manchuria?

    No matter what he was doing or didn't understand, the reality was here. Last night, when he was first surrounded, Okazaki was not panicked. With his more than 1,700 brave and capable Imperial Army soldiers, plus  Liu Sang's elite troops defeated the ambush Chinese with ease. To this end, he personally slashed the captain in charge of the security artillery squadron and baggage supplies. The squad leader who was lucky enough to escape with his life rolled back and crawled back, losing his emperor.  Damn the military baggage!  Being so panicked lacks the majesty of the Japanese Imperial Army. Damn it!

    After slashing the squad leader, he carried the command knife that was still dripping with blood and directed the soldiers to attack. He couldn't remember how many times he attacked. In addition to receiving a heavy rain of bullets, grenades and head-banging attacks, he  Except for the shells, he didn't catch anything, but he left pieces of corpses of soldiers on the road of attack. After struggling for most of the night, every time the imperial army attacked, his head was bruised and bloody, and he realized the situation.  It's serious. This group of Chinese are not the Red Beards or the Anti-Union Forces. They don't have such sophisticated equipment, and the artillery shells are being thrown down as if they are free.

    He immediately contacted his superior division commander stationed in Tonghua City and asked for support, but he also knew that water from afar could not quench the thirst of the nearer, and the reinforcements would not be able to get here without a night and a half day., he bravely contacted the Kwantung Army Aviation Command and asked for tactical guidance. This is also a way of saying that he wants to save face. To put it bluntly, it means, buddy, you are fast, for the sake of your compatriots, please give me a hand.  , Brother, this little life is about to be over!  As we all know, the relationship between the Japanese Air Force and the Army is not very good, and they always quarrel with each other. But if there is even the slightest difference, Okazaki doesn't want to open his mouth!

    Not bad, the Japanese air force commander is very loyal. He criticized Okazaki on the radio, made sarcastic remarks, and tried his best to belittle the capabilities of the army. Okazaki didn't dare to retaliate, and could only keep saying "  "Hai hai", after finishing his talk, he finally agreed to send a plane to cover his breakout after dawn.

    Okazaki was so angry that he felt so depressed that he had to soak himself in urine. Looking at the more than 800 people left around him, they all looked like little devils like the Kitchen Lord. They were dejected and had no fighting spirit. The loyal imperial soldier  Liu Sang, his lackey, had half of his ear cut off by a cannonball, and his head was bandaged like an extra-large flower scroll. He lay there and groaned.

    He cast a disdainful look at Liu Yanwang, Manchurians and warriors!  Total rubbish!

    In order to cooperate with the air force planes, he hysterically mobilized the Japanese and national soldiers before the war. It probably means that you are all warriors of His Majesty the Emperor and Emperor Kant. Small setbacks cannot make you lose confidence. Immediately follow the imperial army's planes.  It's coming. Now, it's your time to serve His Majesty the Emperor and Emperor Kant. Show your courage, follow me, and defeat the enemy!  This guy, Okazaki was dancing around, spitting and flying, talking about the emotional point, squeezing out a few tears, and his expression was as generous as he wanted.

    At this time, Okazaki changed his profession to selling dog skin plasters. Not to mention, after Okazaki's encouragement, the little devil's confidence was restored. Even the national soldiers also relaxed. These national soldiers themselves knew that,  He has done so many evil things to his compatriots, and being caught is definitely not good. He might as well fight hard and maybe survive. He has not lived enough of the life of a god!

    The remaining Japanese and national soldiers were like chicken blood, shouting like mad dogs, simply throwing off their cotton-padded clothes, wearing menstrual belts on their heads, with a fierce look in their eyes, just waiting for Okazaki to say  After the order, Okazaki went out and fought hard. Okazaki was very satisfied with the effect. He pulled Liu Yama and the two of them retreated to the back of the team. Liu Yama immediately understood what was going on and bowed to Okazaki movedly. Look.  That posture, if there is a tail behind the butt, it can be shaken off!

    The weather is fine and the sky is clear. It is a good weather for flying.

    Ichiro Kameda, the lead pilot of the Japs, flew the bomber in the direction of Hongishizi with a leisurely manner, and kept talking to his wingman pilot, "Miyagi-kun, you have to invite me after you return.  Drink, how does that Manchu female student I introduced to you last night taste?"

    That Miyagi thanked her repeatedly and clucked her lips, as if she was reminiscing about last night's sex. Not only did she want to treat Kameda to a drink, but she also promised to enjoy the Manchu girl together tonight and have a double sex. The eager Kameda, crotch  The things below are ready to move, and they can't wait to fly back immediately.

    Four Japanese planes flew in a row and quickly flew over Hongshilizi. The leading plane pressed its nose and dived down, followed by the three following. Kameda could clearly see the Chinese people below and the people on the ground.  The infantry artillery is the target here.

    Kameda licked his lips, pointed at the artillery position with a grin, and swooped over. The wingman behind him also followed, and the other two Japanese planes swooped toward the opposite position. In Kameda's view, this bombing mission was worse than  It was a relaxing outing. The sky in Manchuria belonged to the Japanese Air Force. He liked to throw bombs on the heads of the Chinese people and watch them strewn with corpses and rivers of blood under the bombs. It was a great sense of accomplishment!

    He flew the plane very low, almost touching the treetops, and his finger had already pressed the bomb release button. Suddenly, a burst of flames hit his head, and the fuselage shook violently. Kameda quickly lost consciousness.  A heavy machine gun bullet penetrated his chest, leaving a hole as big as a teacup. At the last moment of his life, he was full of confusion. When did the Chinese have anti-aircraft weapons?  He will never know this mystery. He and his plane were blown to pieces in the sky, and a black smoke cloud opened in the sky.

    The other three Japanese planes also suffered the same fate. The Japanese pilots were also looking for death. They bullied the Chinese ** team for not having anti-aircraft weapons. They arrogantly lowered the plane extremely low, but it was said to be ultra-low altitude. Tang Qiuli's Plum Blossom Formation turned out to be true.  It worked. One heavy machine gun and three light machine guns formed a flower petal and shattered the Japanese plane into pieces.

    Okazaki, who was in the hiding place, heard the sound of the plane and jumped up, waving his command knife and saying, "Give me the killing opportunity." The remaining eight hundred Japanese and Japanese soldiers rushed out like a swarm. The Japanese Air Force plane came and killed them.  It¡¯s just the Chinese people, but the explosions in the sky shattered their dreams. Those were not the explosions of our planes dropping bombs, but the explosions of the imperial army¡¯s aircraft.The machine was smashed!

    The Japs stared at the sky in disbelief. When Okazaki woke up from behind, they loudly ordered the troops to return to their original positions. I bet the guys with wings couldn't count on them either.

    There was no chance. The artillery brigade, which had been waiting for a long time, blasted the Japanese retreat route into a wall of fire with a blast of shells. Then, more shells completely covered the Japanese. In the billowing smoke, the Japanese's broken limbs, broken arms, broken guns and helmets were all visible.  It was flying all over the sky. Five minutes later, the artillery fire stopped shooting. No Japanese could stand up anymore. Even finding a whole body was difficult.

    Tang Qiuli then sent his troops down to the valley to clean up the battlefield.

    In a small cave, Okazaki's body was found. This guy was lucky. The rest of his body was intact, except for his head, which was cut off by a cannonball. A golden spiked command knife was placed beside him. Tang Qiu  Li picked it up and looked at the steel mouth. It was not bad. He kept it. As for Liu Yanwang, he had been blown to pieces long ago. How about finding him?

    In one night and half a day, a total of 4,700 people from the Japanese's elite Okazaki expedition team and the Old Seventh Regiment, which Shao Benziliang relied on, were all wiped out. Not a single person slipped through the net, not a single wounded soldier or prisoner. I guess,  It was the soldiers who thought of the folks who died in Weijia Wopu. Are there still such beasts?  A bayonet was sent to see the King of Hell. When Li Honggang saw this situation, he originally wanted to stop it, but he probably remembered the commander's order, plus the two squadron commanders who followed him on the mission last time came back and said this, and his lips moved.  After a few moments, I didn't say anything, but I felt a little uncomfortable, mainly because I wasn't used to it.

    Cleaning the battlefield is actually just a formality. Think about it, what can be left with such fierce artillery fire?  Only a few light and heavy machine guns and mortars were harvested, but they had to be taken back to the base arsenal and repaired before they could be used. However, the six field guns were dragged to a corner by frightened horses and preserved intact.

    These six big guys made Zhou Yushan very worried. If he couldn't carry them with him, how could he transport them to the base?

    ¡°Later, I finally came up with a clumsy trick. I dismantled the six field guns and loaded them all on carts. I teamed up with the troops to replenish the remaining ammunition and supplies, sent a squadron of soldiers to escort them, and immediately transported them back to the base.

    In this battle, the Blood Hand Regiment lost 23 soldiers and 56 lightly or seriously wounded. After burying the fallen comrades, the wounded were put on carts returning to the base, and the troops moved to the battlefield for repairs.

    The huge victory diluted the sorrow of the sacrifice of the comrades around them. The soldiers ate a sweet lunch and talked excitedly about the battle situation. There was joyful laughter everywhere.

    Tang Qiuli returned to the headquarters and just took a sip of water. The correspondent hurried over and reported an important situation. The first detachment of the special operations brigade sent intelligence that in the direction of Tonghua City, the Japanese reinforcements were strengthening a field unit and assigned a combat unit.  The vehicle brigade left the station last night.

    The vanguard, a Japanese cavalry brigade, has already entered the Guaibo store, which is only three hours away.

    Seeing this information, Tang Qiuli felt relieved, as long as he knew you were here.

    He immediately held a combat meeting and reported the enemy's situation. Everyone expressed their opinions on the new situation. Some advocated withdrawing from the battlefield, and some advocated fighting this battle, but the battlefield should be chosen differently.

    Everyone discussed for a while and found that the commander didn't say a word. He looked at everyone with a smile and stopped talking. The commander's smile was like a cat looking at a mouse. There was an article in it, maybe it was something else.  What new ideas are you thinking of?

    Seeing that everyone had stopped talking, Tang Qiuli said: "This battle is going to be fought, and the battlefield is still chosen here. Let's set up an ambush and take medicine according to the prescription!"

    Hearing what the commander said, the room felt like a pot was boiling, and everyone was whispering to each other. Isn¡¯t this idea too bold?  Things can be one and the same. Can the Japanese be fooled?  What's more, there is a whole regiment following behind. If the Japanese are entangled, the situation will not be good!

    Seeing that everyone had doubts, Tang Qiuli explained the mystery in detail.

    The Japanese cavalry is a mobile unit. In order to understand the siege of Okazaki, it must speed up its march. What's more, the cavalry moves quickly. In this way, it will definitely distance itself from the main force of the Japanese. According to the different marching speeds of the cavalry and infantry,  We are at least three hours away, and it is these three hours that have created an opportunity for us. The battle can be resolved within an hour, and the troops can easily leave the battlefield. Besides, the Japanese have sent hundreds of horses for free. Aren't you greedy?

    After hearing what the commander said, commanders at all levels knew something. When they heard that there were hundreds of war horses, their eyes shone like hungry wolves seeing their prey. They each planned to turn their troops into  Looking at the cavalry, Tang Qiuli felt a chill in his heart, okay? They are all masters who only take advantage and refuse to suffer losses!

    The next combat deployment arrangements are as follows, Li Honggang said:?Get out of the way. After all the Japanese cavalry enter the valley, immediately place a large number of obstacles to seal the exit and block the Japanese's retreat. The rest of the troops are only allowed to shoot with rifles. This time, Zheng Yong, you can rest. No.  Beat the horse to death! The cavalry is attacking the mountains, what a joke!  That was a living target, but he just tortured him hard enough, which made everyone burst into laughter.

    When the Japs could hear the gunshots, the troops fired sporadically, creating the illusion that the Okazaki expedition team was still resisting and attracting the Japs into the valley.

    After the deployment, commanders at all levels went to make arrangements separately.

    At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the latent post responsible for monitoring the Japanese sent back a signal and discovered the Japanese cavalry.  There was a muffled sound like thunder in the distance, which was the sound of hundreds of horses running.

    Tang Qiuli immediately ordered the troops to fire. When he heard the gunfire, the thunder-like sound became more rapid, the movement became louder and louder, the ground rumbled, and at the entrance of the valley, a burst of snow mist rose. Five hundred Japanese cavalrymen,  Riding on the ocean horse, making strange screams in the room, raising the saber high, the sword was dazzling, forming a charging formation, and rolling into the valley like a hurricane with murderous intent.

    When they arrived in the valley, they were disappointed. They did not see the heroic imperial soldiers fighting bravely. Instead, they saw corpses with missing arms and legs lying on the ground. They were broken and had been tricked by the Chinese. The Japanese cavalry who led the team  The commander reacted immediately, turned the horse's head and retreated along the original road. No matter how fast the cavalry charged, there was one disadvantage. If an unexpected situation occurred, the car could not be stopped. The Japanese cavalry in front understood the commander's intention, but the cavalry behind him understood the commander's intention.  I don¡¯t know, but I keep rushing forward.

    Those in front retreated, and those behind rushed forward. The formation of the Japanese was in chaos. Hundreds of horses were huddled together. How could the soldiers miss such a good opportunity? A burst of neat gunfire rang out, and the Japanese on horseback  Just like dumplings, they fell down with crackling sounds. After a few bursts of gunfire, there were only a hundred or so Japs left who could ride on horses. The rest were in close contact with the earth.

    The remaining Japanese cavalry finally turned their horses and galloped away. It was too late. The entrance to the valley was already blocked by insurmountable obstacles. Another burst of rifle fire came in front of them. This time, their accuracy was a bit off.  Even people and horses were shot a lot. Isn't it to blame that a large group of soldiers didn't have the advantage of being at a commanding height?

    Thirty minutes later, a Japanese cavalry brigade was completely annihilated. In the valley, the horses without riders were running around, and some were dragging corpses of Japanese soldiers on their pedals. The soldiers rushed down the mountain and spent a lot of effort.  After gathering the horses, in addition to the horses that were killed, there were more than 400 horses, a Japanese cavalry brigade, and even the horses were equipped with a full set of equipment. Even if Tang Qiuli returned, the soldiers were so happy that a  No one was injured, so many war horses were captured. The two battles today were enjoyable, enjoyable and exciting!  !

    After gathering the troops, Tang Qiuli asked Zheng Yong to leave the mortars and the rest of the equipment as the large troops moved. After agreeing on a rendezvous point, the large troops left the battlefield and watched the troops disappear into the vast forest.

    Tang Qiuli took Zheng Yong and the mortar squadron, plus an infantry squadron, and rushed away in the direction of the main force of the Japanese.
