The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 2153 The Sudden Appearance of Cavalry

"Fighting is good, fighting is good. Once the fighting starts, all the mess will disappear (liao)!" The team was moving forward but it did not stop Qiaoyouzi from speaking.

Although the team was jogging, the soldiers were secretly happy.

Isn't it? There were gunshots ahead, that means the Japanese devils are coming.

Once the Japanese devils come, there will be a war.

When the war broke out, the little things between Shang Zhenying's soldiers and Qian Bingzhong would have been thrown into the air in Java!

This time Chu Tian was running in the front, and Xu Lang was left behind.

Now that he has joined the Eighth Route Army, Secretary He asked someone to make the decision before he left, but he did not let Chu Tian make the decision.

So now Chen Hanwen's platoon is going to participate in the battle, of course it was not Chu Tian who agreed but Xu Lang who agreed.

When there was no gunfire at the beginning, Xu Lang was still emphasizing that the Eighth Route Army must protect the people. However, when gunfire was heard in front and soldiers chased up from behind and asked to take the initiative to join the battle, Xu Lang actually agreed!

So, does this mean something? Isn't Xu Lang too timid?

Since their own people are fighting in front of them, they must also join in the battle.

In this case, of course the more people you bring, the better!

This is what Chu Tian guessed about Xu Lang's intention, but he would not tell this to anyone and could only keep it in his heart, so he was reserved about Xu Lang's performance.

Chu Tian led this platoon of people and continued to run forward. When they had run about two miles, the gunshots in front were getting closer and closer.

As soon as Chu Tian and his men heard the gunshots, they could tell that the gunshots were moving, or, to be more precise, their people must have been chased by the Japanese army and were moving towards their platoon.

With this judgment, Chu Tian looked to both sides of the road. There was indeed a terrain that he liked. There were highlands on both sides. Although the slope was not steep, it was still highland and there were bushes and trees on it.

"Chen Hanwen, you take half of the people to the left, and I will lead the rest to the right!" Chu Tian gave the order loudly.

After he said this, the team naturally split up. The four Eighth Route Army soldiers who were assigned to Chen Hanwen's platoon, perhaps because they had an argument with Hu Zhuzi, all ran to Chu Tian's side, and Xu Lang followed them.

Logically speaking, the highest-ranking official here should be Xu Lang.

But it was not the first time Chu Tian knew Xu Lang. As for Xu Lang's level of commanding operations, the people in their battalion did not think highly of him at all. Of course, they could not say this!

And Xu Lang seemed to have self-awareness. He didn't want to talk about principles this time. Anyway, it was not his turn to lead the charge in the battle!

Chu Tian ran to the small hill on the right, and then ran to the side of the woods. The gunshots came from that direction. He had a telescope in his hand, so he had to see what was going on first.

Chu Tian lay at the edge of the woods, looking into the distance with his telescope.

But this look disappointed him.

There was a high hill ahead, and the country road turned under the hill, and the hill just blocked his view.

How about setting up the ambush position on that high hill? The high hill is higher than where they are now, Chu Tian thought.

But at this moment he saw that on the opposite side of the hill, that is, on the other side of the path, there was a flat open area with a few sparse bushes on it, and no one could hide at all.

"Company commander, I think the terrain ahead is good. How about I take a machine gun and go there?" asked Qiaoyouzi who followed from behind.

Chu Tian was able to determine that their people were being hunted by the Japanese army, and Qiao Youzi could certainly make the same judgment.

"That's fine. If we can see the enemy there, we can fire a burst of bullets at them and then run back. But forget it, I'll just take a machine gun with me." Chu Tian said.

They said that their people were being hunted by the Japanese army. This was their judgment, but it was hard to say what the specific situation was at the moment. They needed to act according to circumstances, so Chu Tian said this.

After Chu Tian finished speaking, he called the machine gunner and the assistant gunner out of the woods and ran towards the high ground in front.

But when they had only run a few steps, Qiaoyouzi suddenly shouted from behind: "Come back quickly!"

Chu Tian and his men looked back at Qiao Youzi's expression and knew something was wrong. They didn't care where the enemy was, so they turned around and ran into the woods.

They returned to the woods. Chu Tian asked, "What happened?"

"It seems like there is the sound of horse hooves!" Qiaoyouzi replied.

At this time, Chu Tian really heard the faint sound of horse hooves, but what surprised them was that the sound of horse hooves did not come from the road ahead, but from behind them!

"Come with me, half of the people!" Chu Tian said anxiously.

These veterans of Shang Zhenying have been through hundreds of battles and have dealt with cavalry before. When you can hear the sound of horse hooves, if you are a little slower, the cavalry may be in front of you!

Chu Tian took a few people and went behind the woods again.

The forest was not very big. Chu Tian and a few others saw more than ten horse riders in the distance through the gaps between the trees before they reached the edge of the forest.

The dozen or so horses came around this side of the road. Chu Tian signaled everyone to stop. He took advantage of the cover of the trees and quickly used the telescope to look.

As soon as he saw the sky clearly, he whispered, "Go back one person, and quickly call Chen Hanwen and the others over! Get ready for battle!"

It turned out that he saw clearly through the telescope that the more than ten horses running towards them were the Japanese cavalry!

Chu Tian was also very grateful in his heart, thanks to Qiao Youzi who heard the sound of horse hooves.

If Chen Hanwen had shouted at him to slow down just now, he and his men would have run down this small hill and entered the open space between this small hill and the high hill in front, and they would definitely have been discovered by the Japanese army!

"Fuck!" Qiaoyouzi cursed in a low voice, "It feels like the Japs are different this time!"

"This is a little different. Maybe they are familiar with our battalion in battle. Everyone be careful!" Chu Tian said.

Of course, what Chu Tian said makes sense.

He didn't expect that the Japanese army would send out cavalry this time.

The Japanese army has also mastered the rapid movements of Shang Zhenying.

If they only used infantry to chase and kill them, they might not be able to catch up with these veterans.

That's why they sent out multiple cavalry squads to conduct rapid detours and infiltrations.

In fact, they had used this trick when they were chasing Shang Zhen.

It’s just that the Chinese personnel who participated in the battle at that time were either killed or missing, so Chu Tian and his team did not receive any information.

"Should we call Platoon Leader Chen and the others over as well?" Qian Bingzhong suggested at this time.

"No need, the people ahead are almost here." Chu Tian said in a low voice

Then he stopped talking, and everyone else fell silent as well, because the Japanese cavalry were getting closer, now only about 200 meters away from the woods.

"There are 11 in total. The closer the Japanese are to us, the better. They can't get into the woods anyway. Just put your heads down and I'll watch them alone!" said Chu Tian.

The Eighth Route Army soldiers who came with them and Xu Lang did not expect Chu Tian to give such an order, but they all lay down anyway.

When they looked at the machine gunner in Shang Zhen's camp, he did pull the bolt and loaded the machine gun, but he didn't even have the legs for the machine gun!

Obviously, the people in Shang Zhenying are quite experienced in fighting this kind of ambush!
