Anti-Japanese War: I have unlimited assistance

Chapter 545 This wave of killing is so cool!

"Boom boom boom!!"

Upon receiving the order, the 110nd Artillery Battalion of the 2th Mountain Artillery Regiment immediately fired in the direction of the bridge according to the calibrated firing parameters.

A flurry of shells fell around the engineering battalion's engineering vehicles.

At the same time, the artillery units of the Eighth Route Army immediately estimated the location of the Japanese artillery positions based on the flight trajectory of the Japanese artillery shells.

In fact, as soon as the Japanese mountain artillery opened fire, the nearby Jinzhong Cavalry Regiment had already discovered the location of the Japanese mountain artillery position.

The 110th Mountain Artillery Regiment was equipped with the Type 8.3 mountain gun, which had a maximum range of only kilometers.

The Guizishan Artillery Battalion was in a concealed state and was difficult for the Eighth Route Cavalry to detect.

However, once the Japanese mountain artillery fired, the sound of the gun was loud, and the smoke and muzzle fireworks produced were very eye-catching.

At the same time, the trajectory of mountain artillery shells can be captured by the naked eye from a distance.

"Southwest, about 4.3 kilometers away."

Li Pengfei stood on horseback like a javelin, and used an eight-fold high-definition telescope with a scale on his chest to determine the approximate location of the Guizishan artillery position.

But it is a pity that they did not bring professional artillery observers.

Otherwise, just call on the firepower of the Eighth Route Army heavy artillery unit on the other side, and launch a few rounds of fire coverage on the Japanese artillery positions and that would be the end of it.

"Jinzhong Cavalry Battalion, attack!"

Li Pengfei raised his submachine gun and gave orders.

Immediately, he led more than 400 cavalry soldiers of the New st Regiment under his command and rushed towards the Japanese artillery positions.

4.3 kilometers may seem far, but for the cavalrymen who could charge at full speed up to 10 kilometers per hour, the Jinzhong Cavalry Battalion reached the front of the Japanese cavalry in less than minutes.

After approaching the Japanese artillery position, the Japanese artillerymen discovered the Eighth Route Army cavalry charging towards them early on.

Then, the Japanese quickly turned the muzzles of half of their mountain cannons and fired at the charging Eighth Route Army cavalry.

The Japanese artillery caused some casualties to the Eighth Route Army cavalry, but not much.

A Maxim gun caused much more damage to the cavalry than these Japanese mountain cannons.

Some Japanese soldiers wanted to drive a small truck over to take the artillery away, but it was too late.

After rushing to the Japanese cavalry position, Li Pengfei and the soldiers put away their submachine guns and drew the Cossack cavalry swords from their waists.

Seeing the Eighth Route Army cavalry charging towards them, hundreds of Japanese artillerymen fled in panic, wishing their parents had given them a few more legs.

A Japanese artillery battalion had about five to six hundred people, including artillery and logistics troops.

"kill!!"

Li Pengfei took the lead and quickly caught up with a fleeing Japanese cavalryman, then swung his sword.

The Japanese soldier heard the sound of horse hooves behind him and turned back to look. Suddenly, he saw a flash of a knife. Then he felt his head spinning. When he looked again, his head had already flown out at an angle.

The Japanese soldier's body ran forward two steps due to inertia, and then fell to the ground like a dead tree stump.

Behind Li Pengfei, more than 400 soldiers raised their cavalry swords, the swords flashed, and with shouts of killing, one Japanese head and arm after another flew out.

As the knife flashed, blood spurted out!
In this wave, the soldiers of the Jinzhong Cavalry Battalion had a great time killing. Shooting the Japanese cavalry with submachine guns and killing the Japanese infantry with cavalry swords were two completely different feelings.

……

"Nani?"

"Is the 2nd Mountain Artillery Battalion also finished?"

In the Japanese military headquarters, after listening to the staff report, Major General Ohga Shigeru looked grim.

Now, he only has a mountain artillery battalion left.

And there was no air support.

Fortunately, they only had half an hour left before the North China Front Command issued their blocking order. As soon as darkness fell, they could retreat to the northwest. "Hopefully, the 14th Cavalry Regiment can hold off the Eighth Route Army's attack."

Taking a deep breath, Major General Ohgamo's eyes turned cold.

However, as one fears, so too will one realize it. A staff officer came running over to report: "Report, the firepower of the Eighth Route Army Cavalry is very strong. Colonel Oshima requests tactical guidance!"

Major General Ohgamo immediately said, "Order Colonel Oshima to hold on for half an hour, then retreat!"

Colonel Maeda said, "Major General, how about I lead the tank regiment to reinforce the 14th Cavalry Regiment and help them retreat?"

"No need!" Major General Ohga Mo waved his hand and said, "I believe the 14th Cavalry Regiment will be able to stop the Eighth Route Army's attack."

If the 7th Tank Regiment goes to reinforce the 14th Cavalry Regiment.

If another Eighth Route Army cavalry unit attacked the brigade headquarters, Ohga Shigeru was afraid that he would not be able to resist with the remnants of the 13th Cavalry Regiment.

After all, even the Guards Cavalry Regiment was defeated by this Eighth Route Cavalry Unit.

The combat effectiveness of this Eighth Route Cavalry is a bit too weird.

Maeda Takao said: "Hi."

……

It was not only the Jinzhong Cavalry Battalion that enjoyed the killing, but the Jizhong Cavalry Regiment also enjoyed the killing.

The horse posts of the 14th Cavalry Regiment of the Japanese were set up one kilometer away from the Japanese dismounted fighting position.

The so-called horse stake is where the Japanese tied their horses when they dismounted and fought on foot.

The Japanese left behind a cavalry squad to guard the area, and the rest of the Japanese cavalry went to the river to block the Eighth Route Army infantry from crossing the river.

As soon as the Ji Zhong Cavalry Regiment arrived, the Japanese infantry and cavalry had no time to return to the riding post and mount their horses. This Japanese cavalry squad could only bite the bullet and charge towards the Ji Zhong Cavalry Regiment, intending to delay for a while.

but.

The strength of the two sides was not at the same level. With just one wave of cavalry charge, more than 50 Japanese cavalrymen were wiped out.

All the horses of the 14th Cavalry Regiment were seized by the Ji Zhong Cavalry Regiment, which made the regiment commander Ma, Ma Chengfeng and the soldiers very happy.

The Eighth Route Army can organize this batch of captured military horses into a cavalry regiment.

but,

Because the 14th Cavalry Regiment of the Japanese was located by the river, if the cavalry charge could not be stopped, it would definitely rush into the river.

So, Commander Ma immediately ordered the soldiers to dismount and fight on foot, and asked the artillery company to set up the mortars that had just been acquired that morning to cover the infantry's charge.

At the beginning, the soldiers were not very familiar with the newly acquired semi-automatic rifles and submachine guns, and they were not very good at fighting.

But as time went on, the soldiers became more and more familiar with the new weapons, and the powerful firepower directly suppressed the Japanese soldiers of the 14th Cavalry Regiment so that they could not raise their heads.

Coupled with the fierce fire from the Eighth Route Army on the other side of the river, the 14th Cavalry Regiment finally couldn't hold on any longer.

At this time, the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side used walkie-talkies to inform them to retreat, and the heavy mortar battalion was ready to open fire.

Not long after, one 120mm shell after another landed in the formation of the Japanese soldiers of the 14th Cavalry Regiment, causing huge explosions and killing one Japanese soldier after another.

Because they were caught in a situation where they were attacked from both sides, the Japanese were in a dilemma and could only passively take the bombing.

After five minutes of shelling, the location of the Japanese 14th Regiment was already full of bomb craters.

As the artillery fire stopped, Captain Ma immediately led the soldiers of the cavalry regiment to charge forward. After a burst of firepower, the remaining Japanese cavalry were also wiped out.

"The new group is really amazing."

"It's a pleasure to fight the Japanese with good weapons."

Looking at the new regiment building a pontoon bridge and crossing the river, Captain Ma grinned from ear to ear.
