Chapter 100 Cavalry company, attack!
On the mountain road two or three kilometers away from Yaojiayu, a sturdy man carrying a suitcase was on his way.
His name is Yao Shangwu, a graduate of the Sixth Artillery Department of Huangpu, and a subordinate of General Zhang of the 33rd Group Army of the Fifth Theater.
As soon as Yao Shangwu came down from the battlefield in Zaoyi, he received a letter from home that his wife was about to give birth.
So he asked for leave to go home to visit relatives. After going through many difficulties and obstacles, he finally passed through the enemy-occupied area and finally returned to his hometown.
At the thought of seeing his wife soon, a smile appeared on Yao Shangwu's face and he couldn't help but speed up his steps.
Suddenly he frowned slightly, stopped and listened.
There seemed to be gunfire in the distance.
Yao Shangwu, who was originally a cannon player, was very sensitive to the sound of artillery, and he quickly recognized the sound of the exploding shells of the Japanese Type 97 mortar.
Yao Shangwu quickly climbed up a mountain ridge and looked in the direction where the gunfire came from.
The explosion came from my village.
Yao Shangwu's expression suddenly changed drastically.
He couldn't see clearly what was going on in the village at this moment, but the sky above the village was already shrouded in thick smoke, and the faint sound of gunshots rang out like firecrackers.
"Wan'er!"
Yao Shangwu shouted anxiously and ran like crazy in the direction of Yaojiayu.
…
In the other direction, a group of about 40 or 50 people were also rushing towards Yaojiayu.
They were poorly dressed, with only a few wearing Eighth Route Army uniforms, which looked very old.
They also have a variety of weapons in their hands. Some are holding broadswords and spears, some are holding old sleeves, and some are holding 38 large caps and Chinese formal weapons.
The leader is a woman wearing a red plaid coat.
She is the captain of the Xiangyuan County Brigade, Liang Shan.
Although Liang Shan is a woman, her skills are no worse than those of men. She led this team single-handedly.
"Hurry up, the comrades behind will follow you!"
Liang Shan's face was covered with sweat, holding a shell gun in his hand, and shouted, "There must be our troops in front who are at war with the Japanese. We have to rush over to support!"
Under Liangshan's mobilization, the comrades of the county brigade couldn't help but speed up a bit.
…
Yaojiayu.
The thirty or so Japs who were responsible for guarding the end of the village saw that something was not going well, lost the courage to resist, and ran away.
From the end of the village to the hills in the distance, there is a two- to three-meter-wide horse path in the middle. On both sides of the horse path are open areas covered with weeds.
When Sun Desheng walked around the back of the village and saw the fleeing Japanese, he couldn't help but admire Wei Dayong's clever plan.
Sun Desheng drew out his standard saber, with a cannibalistic expression on his face, and roared: "Cavalry company, attack!"
The soldiers of the cavalry company uniformly drew out their standard sabers. More than a hundred sabers glowed coldly under the reflection of the setting sun.
More than a hundred military horses ran forward almost at the same time, and the sound of rolling hooves suddenly sounded like a landslide and tsunami.
The fleeing Japanese soldiers looked back and saw a large group of cavalry rushing towards the fleeing Japanese soldiers.
"China...China Cavalry!"
The Japanese were so frightened that they could not understand what they were saying.
Four or five Japanese soldiers knelt on the ground, holding 38 large caps, and fired at the cavalry company.
At the same time, a crooked machine gun was quickly set up by the Japanese. After pulling the bolt, tongues of fire sprayed towards the soldiers of the cavalry company.
The soldier of the cavalry company who was at the forefront was hit by a bullet and fell off his horse.
The soldiers of the cavalry company shot with mounted rifles on horseback, and four or five Japanese were shot and fell instantly.
Sun Desheng took out the rifle from his horse, rotated the rifle in his hand, pulled the bolt, and then fired.
The Japs machine gunner tilted his head and immediately lay motionless on the crooked machine gun. The bullet penetrated the helmet and penetrated the Japs machine gunner's head.
A moment later, the cavalry company rushed to the enemy's side.
The soldiers of the cavalry company rode their horses past like a whirlwind. With a flash of their standard sabers, a bloody streak appeared on the necks of more than a dozen Japanese soldiers.
The force of the saber wielded by the horse running forward is undoubtedly very amazing.
More than a dozen Japanese soldiers covered their necks that had been severed by sabers, and fell down unwillingly like wooden stakes.
After the first round of charge by the cavalry company, only a dozen Japs No. 30 were left standing.
The standing Japanese soldiers also felt uncomfortable. Almost all of them were covered in embroidery, and their bodies were slashed with sharp sabers.
Two Japanese soldiers stood up from the ground, pricked with needles.
A dozen Japanese soldiers knew they were about to die, but they still mustered up the courage to confront the cavalry company with Sanba Gai with bayonets in their hands.
The soldiers of the cavalry company showed no pity or admiration for the Japanese's spirit of dying.
Some are just deep-seated hatred.
"attack!"
"kill!"
Sun Desheng raised his saber and pointed it at the remaining Japanese soldiers. The soldiers of the cavalry company roared and charged towards the Japanese soldiers.
The Japanese army officer also roared angrily: "Give it to Saoli!"
A dozen Japanese soldiers suddenly ran forward and launched a desperate charge towards the cavalry company.
The two sides collided instantly.
But for the Japanese, it was undoubtedly an egg colliding with a stone. This was a charge without any suspense.
In open areas, even if the infantry is several times more powerful than the cavalry, they can only be slaughtered by the cavalry.
What's more, the cavalry is ten times the number of Japanese infantry.
After a round of charge, no Japs could stand up anymore. All the Japs fell into a pool of blood, with bloody wounds all over their bodies.
Even the corpse of the Japanese had lost its human shape under the trampling of the cavalry company's horses.
Except for two soldiers from the cavalry company who were knocked off their horses in the first round of charge, there were no casualties in the second round of charge.
With a record of 2 to 30, the cavalry company wiped out all the Japanese who tried to escape!
…
"The battalion commander, chief of staff, and a dozen or so Japs escaped into the courtyard. They held seven or eight civilians hostage. Our soldiers surrounded the courtyard!"
Seeing Wei Dayong and Liu Dali approaching, Second Company Commander Meng Fugui and two soldiers quickly ran over to report.
He didn't know how to deal with this situation.
When Liu Dali heard this, his expression became solemn and he asked, "Where is it?"
"there!"
Meng Fugui pointed towards the courtyard and then led the way. Wei Dayong and Liu Dali followed him to the outside of a courtyard.
Soldiers from the Second Company and the Third Company surrounded the courtyard with three layers inside and three layers outside.
More than a dozen soldiers squatted on the walls and roofs, aiming their guns inside.
When Wang Xikuan, the third company commander, saw Wei Dayong and Liu Dali, he quickly came over and saluted: "battalion commander, chief of staff!"
Without saying a word, Wei Dayong threw 98k to the six guards, and then took the Jin-made Thompson submachine gun from Wang Xikuan.
Previously, on the hill 400 meters away, Wei Dayong had a chance to snipe the Japanese squadron leader.
However, he still chose to shoot the Japanese soldier who was holding a torch and preparing to set the house on fire.
If the Japanese soldiers were allowed to throw torches on the houses, the people inside would definitely not survive.
Then it was the squadron leader who never found a chance to kill the Japanese.
However, I sniped down a Japanese squad leader and four or five Japanese soldiers.
Wei Dayong took off the magazine and looked at it. It was full. He inserted the magazine again, then pulled the bolt and walked towards the door of the yard.
Meng Fugui and Wang Xikuan were slightly startled and hurriedly came to stop them: "Batalion Commander, it's too dangerous inside!"
"Get out of my way!"
Wei Dayong looked expressionless and glanced at him twice. The two company commanders were so frightened that they did not dare to speak.
