march to victory

"Platoon leader! There are enemy cavalry passing through the mouth of the valley."

Qi Zixuan hurried to the edge of the ridge, and before he could observe carefully, he was sure that there were indeed a large number of enemy cavalry below: Although the whole valley was full of people turning their backs on their backs and screaming, but at the exit of the valley where he was, there were horses There were constant hissing, and occasionally someone could hear angrily lowering their voice deliberately, and even the palms on the ground could feel the ground trembling slightly. This was definitely the result of a large number of enemy cavalry roaring past.

Facts have proved that Commander Liu Yongjiang did miscalculate the enemy's advancing speed: he thought that after the two scouting soldiers below counted a hundred, he counted another hundred. There are still tens of meters away from the exit of Yanzikou, and it is in the best stage of attack - on this heavy rainy day, if the enemy wants to sneak past, they should not let their horses run.But in fact, the enemy cavalry was trotting forward on horseback, twice as fast as he expected.Therefore, at the moment when the signal flare appeared, the enemy's forwards had at least 30 people out of the exit of Yanzikou.

What's interesting is: if the enemy cavalry were all uniform warriors, at least their horses would not be screaming and running wildly stimulated by various sounds on the battlefield.However, the head of the enemy cavalry regiment probably wanted to use the horse bandits collected along the way as cannon fodder. Therefore, two-thirds of the enemy's forward troops in Yanzikou were horse bandits.These horse bandits can fight with the wind, but they are finished when they encounter resistance.And some of the horses they rode were snatched from herdsmen not long ago, and they had never experienced the baptism of war, let alone be compared with war horses.Therefore, when all kinds of gunshots, screams, and roars sounded on the battlefield at the same time, these horses instinctively panicked.Their chaos directly panicked the originally calm war horses and aggravated the chaos. Even the vanguard troops, who were able to sneak away from the exit of the valley in one breath, were thrown into chaos by the panic of the horses beneath them. In a panic, some horses even ran directly to the battlefield... In this way, even if the Red Army soldiers hadn't spotted them before, there is no need to say anything now.

In terms of containment: the artillery company directly under the regiment is responsible for the frontal fire blockade, and the reinforced company that originally served as the guard of the artillery company is responsible for rear defense. Blocking, the third row is responsible for blocking the line of fire and fireballs, and assisting in defense by the way-no way, the assault company is a box cannon, and the effective shooting distance cannot be compared with the synchronous gun, so it can only assist in defending the machine gun company at close range.As for the second row, it was used as the second blockade line, ambushing on the right side outside the exit.On the other side, the Fifty Regiment was in charge.

No one expected that the enemy's forward troops would touch the side so silently. At this time, using fireballs obviously couldn't stop them from escaping.Fortunately, Qi Zixuan is also an old soldier. With a roll of his eyes, he took out a grenade and shouted: "Use the grenade first!"

The soldiers took out the grenades one after another, unscrewed the cover, pulled off the lead wire, and threw them towards the exit regardless.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

The earth trembled, the lights flickered, and people called horses neighing... In the midst of people turning their backs on their backs, not to mention people, some horses were directly blown into lumps, and some fell on the ridge...

At this time, the enemy cavalry at the exit did not panic: the enemy cavalry who had rushed out of the encirclement naturally ran away desperately, and never thought of turning their heads to attack the Red Army; those who did not rush out immediately turned their horses and turned back Running, this is not only because the survival instinct of seeking good luck and avoiding evil forces them to think that the valley is safer, but more importantly, the second wave of grenade attacks has come.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

Once the second wave of attacks passed, it was quiet down here—the ones who survived the first wave of attacks were almost done after the second wave.Only a few fatalities were left, and they were either killed or fainted, but occasionally they could faintly neigh a few horses.

In fact, when the rain curtain obstructs the line of sight, no one can see the other party. With the advantageous terrain and the superiority of the number of people, it is naturally impossible to launch a charge to fight the enemy. If you want to mix with the enemy, the side with more people will not be able to take advantage of it, and the possibility of accidentally killing your own people will be higher.Therefore, I can only shoot from a long distance. Anyway, the sky is about to dawn, so don't be afraid.In this way, everyone can only judge by the sound, or confirm it in the fleeting flash of the occasional grenade explosion.Therefore, no one can witness the specific casualties on the battlefield with their own eyes, and can only hear various voices.To put it bluntly, if everyone is trying to kill more enemies, we can only judge based on the commander's battlefield command experience.

Qi Zixuan quickly ran to the edge of the ridge to listen, and immediately ordered: "Stop throwing grenades, change to fireballs!"

So, the soldiers grabbed the haystacks that had been prepared on the ridge and threw them directly down, and the three rows and three squads of soldiers who had been ordered in advance jumped off the ridge, picked up the haystacks that were thrown down, and ran towards the middle .

Fortunately, the enemy was afraid of the condescending power of the Red Army, so they didn't dare to charge directly. The soldiers of the third squad successfully gathered the haystacks in the middle, and when they piled up about one meter high, they immediately retreated to the back.

The soldiers above continued to throw until about halfway through, Qi Zixuan struck a match and lit a bundle of hay. Several soldiers next to him used the hay in their hands to catch the fire, and then threw it to the haystack below.

Soon, a fire line with flames as high as three or four meters appeared in the night rain, blocking the entire exit.

In order to prevent the line of fire from being extinguished, some people threw haystacks down from time to time, which were picked up by the soldiers of the third squad and placed on the line of fire to maintain the flame height of the line of fire, which completely blocked the enemy's escape route.

The enemy is not stupid, since they can't rush out directly from here, they can only feint to attack the slopes at both ends of the exit.

The road was slippery on a rainy night, and the slope was a feint. Unfortunately, their first main attack target was actually placed on the slope on the right side of the exit, because the gunman on this side was ridiculed, but the slope on the left was full of gunshots. From the flickering flames, one can tell which is stronger and which is weaker, and this is doomed to their failure, because this is the position of the machine gun company.

It was pitch black before, and no one could see anyone, but thanks to the flame that soared into the sky, now everyone can see something.Although it still doesn't help in the distance, it really helps the Red Army soldiers at the exit.Because the Red Army at the exit was at a high place, and the light of the flames could not reach them, but it illuminated a lot in the valley, so that they could almost clearly see the charge of the enemy cavalry, and even made the Red Army even tens of meters away. The figures of the charging enemy cavalry could be vaguely seen.For the enemy cavalry here, it is absolutely depressing, because they are under the light, not only are they exposed, but more, because they can't see the Red Army in the dark from the light, they can only see the Red Army in the dark. Tongues of fire to judge.

However, the facts have proved that they would rather not see the flames of the Red Army soldiers' muzzles here, because if they did not see it, they still had some hope of breaking out of the encirclement from here, but they were desperate when they saw it.

They feinted on horseback, and they couldn't use the horse's impact speed at all.At first, there were only a few tongues of fire flickering on the mountain.However, when they entered under the light of the fire, the front was less than 20 meters from the top of the hillside.

"beat!"

"Clap! Clap! Clap..."

"Da da da……"

"Boom! Boo! Boo..."

Accompanied by Zhang Qingshan's roar, the box cannon, light and heavy machine guns fired almost simultaneously.

The enemy cavalry, whose eyes were full of joy just now, were immediately stunned by the rain of bullets.

The bullets from the box cannon were better. At least, some skilled riders grabbed the reins and used the height to force the horse's forelegs off the ground while neighing. They stuck to the horse's back, and they could more or less avoid it.Even if the horse under him is hit by the bullet of the box cannon, the bullet of the box cannon cannot penetrate the horse's body, so even if the horse under him is dead, he can still use the horse's body to avoid the bullet of the box cannon .

But if you are hit by a bullet from a machine gun, especially a heavy machine gun, it will be over: the penetrating power of the bullet of a heavy machine gun is already strong, and with such a short distance, let alone the body of a horse, it is two The body of a horse can also be penetrated by you, making it impossible for you to hide.I can only pray to God that the opponent's machine gunner should not focus on himself.

At this time, a small episode happened.

The enemies attacking the dirt slope where the machine gun company was located, were frightened by the light and heavy weapons when Zhang Qingshan and others opened fire, and they didn't even dare to fight back.Except for a few people who were left behind who were able to turn the horse's head, most of them jumped off the horse immediately and ran down the mountain screaming desperately.

After leaving behind a series of blood and corpses, they finally ran back down the mountain, rolling and crawling.Because the distance is longer, the firepower of the Red Army soldiers will be wider, and the strength of the firepower blockade will naturally be weaker. In addition, they are trapped in the dark rainy night. As long as they don't shout, it is still difficult to be "taken care of". Therefore, There are still many enemies hiding in the past.

At this moment when everyone was in fear and panic, a dozen military policemen jumped out of nowhere and berated them, telling them to rush on.

For the first time, there was a guy who was probably the boss of the horse bandits. He was used to bullying people and bullying people on weekdays. of.So, he jumped out and said, "Sir, wait..." But before he finished speaking, he was greeted by a gunshot.

Then, the dozen or so gendarmes threatened people with guns.

The second time, there were three or four people who jumped out. The leader knew at a glance that he was a veteran, and he was probably used to domineering in the team, so he wanted to make connections. "Brothers, everyone is in the same pot." Chewers, how about giving the brothers a face, and wait for their firepower to be less, and then rush up and kill them all?"

Not to mention, when the other party saw his military uniform, he really showed face. He didn't immediately implement the family law and military regulations, but just shook his head with a cold face, and replied while shaking his head, "This is an order from above, there is no room for negotiation."

"Grass! Shit..."

This time, it was the people around him who spoke, but unfortunately, before they finished speaking, all they got was a shuttle of bullets.

The interesting thing is here...
