Chapter 51 Never retreat (please order first!)

Counting the wounded, there were a total of thirty people left to take charge of the aftermath.

The first wave of chasing enemies will most likely be cavalry with speed advantages and high mobility.

In the past, the Eighth Route Army lacked ammunition. When facing the Japanese cavalry, they often had to move them closer and fire at a position where the hit rate could be guaranteed.

But at that time, with the speed of the war horse, he could rush in front of the soldiers very quickly.

A cavalryman who gradually enters a sprinting state can cover a distance of 200 meters in about 12-15 seconds.

What will happen when the infantry, which lacks heavy firepower, is approached by the cavalry? Li Yunlong has the best say in this matter. He had encountered such a battle back then.

People who have never experienced that kind of battle cannot understand the feeling of oppression. They watched helplessly as the saber approached towards their neck, but the large bolt in their hands fired too slowly and was unable to stop it.

After being approached by cavalry, even if they are not killed by a single blow from the saber, the weight of the war horse can still kill the infantry due to the speed. The most painful outcome is to be trampled to death by the galloping war horses in the battle.

Taking these factors into consideration, the secret service company left twenty-five submachine guns for the soldiers behind them. Coupled with the two original machine guns and 38-guns in their team, the firepower network composed of these weapons was enough to defeat the Japanese.

The cavalryman drinks a pot.

This kind of firepower configuration can be said to be a poor version of Santoku's Storm Assault Platoon.

Moreover, grenades are also an indispensable weapon in sniper warfare.

Before setting off, the soldiers of the secret service company each carried at least five grenades. They used almost thirty when they attacked the dormitory in the Japanese hospital, and another thirty in ambushes on the way back.

In order to provide as much support as possible to the soldiers in the rear, Zheng Yingqi ordered his comrades to leave a total of 400 grenades.

Coupled with the 60mm mortar, the Japanese would never be able to easily break through this line of defense.

Time was running out. After handing over weapons, Zheng Yingqi and Li Yunlong led the rested soldiers to prepare to set off.

Looking at these comrades who voluntarily stayed behind to break up the rear, the soldiers of the special agent company had mixed feelings.

"salute!"

——————————————

After the special agent company left, Zhang Zhiyi took his brothers and chose a section of the valley that was easy to defend but difficult to attack and began to prepare for battle.

Because he was not sure when the Japanese would catch up, he only dared to let his brothers build a simple position. Otherwise, if the Japanese came in the middle of the work, it would be a waste of energy.

Landmines must be prepared. The wooden-handled grenades on hand can be transformed into powerful landmines by modifying them. In order to prevent big guys from appearing, they also made several cluster grenades and gave them to the strongest soldiers.

After arranging these, Zhang Zhiyi began to distribute firepower and personally guided the soldiers to clear the firing range.

In order for the soldiers to effectively aim and shoot within the firing range, obstacles and vegetation within the firing range must be cleared. This is a skill that everyone in the teaching corps must master.

"The machine gun team is coming with me. Your position is here. Facing the intersection ahead, stop those damn little devils from me."

"Xiao Ding, come here, come here, your shooting range is from the crooked neck to the big rock in front."

"Lao Liu, your location is from the corner over there to the small tree."

"Brothers, hurry up and clean up the shooting area! Don't expose your position due to carelessness and excessive cleaning! Remember to clean up the fallen branches and weeds, be careful of being seen by the Japanese! Don't leave any traces, in case you are caught by the Japanese

I became passive when I found out!”

After giving his instructions, he grabbed the two brothers who were passing by him and gave them any instructions:

"You two, go to the intersection ahead and serve as an outpost. If you see the Japs, come back and report! The Japs will come from that direction, don't make a mistake!"

Seeing everyone carrying out his orders in an orderly manner, Zhang Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief and called over Liang Chunjin, who was the second most senior person in the team.

"Old Liang, come with me and let's find the preparation position!"

Liang Chunjin was the Sichuan soldier in the team. His thin figure seemed like a strong wind could blow him away. He was a little unoptimistic.

"It's too temporary, and the positions haven't been sorted out. The simple positions are not enough, and there will definitely be a tough battle next."

About an hour later, a squadron of Japanese cavalry came from a distance. Because the infantry's marching speed was too slow, they had been thrown away by the cavalry and fell behind by almost three kilometers.

The captain of the cavalry squadron, Ryoichi Maeda, took the lead. Behind him, more than a hundred Japanese cavalry galloped down the road. They were falling into the ambush circle prepared by Zhang Zhiyi little by little.

As soon as the Japs appeared, the two soldiers at the outpost immediately ran back to report the news, and everyone picked up their rifles and prepared to attack.

Entering the valley, Maeda Ryoichi waved his whip and kept urging the military horses under his crotch to speed up. His squadron had just passed the coordinates given by the Army Aviation Corps.

He squinted his eyes, revealing his fierce look.

Because they were in a hurry, the entire squadron went into battle lightly. Everyone only carried their ancestral thirty-two-year-old cavalry sabers and lances, not even the gun oil can.

Therefore, there is currently no unit that is faster than their cavalry squadron. This credit must be his, and no one can take it away.

Suddenly, a bullet almost grazed his face. Blood burst out from the chest of the squad leader behind him. After being shot, he fell straight off his horse.

At the same time, another cavalryman behind him was directly shot in the head by a rifle and died on the spot. Judging from the wound, it was still a self-produced Sanba Gai.

According to the intelligence provided by Army Aviation, the opponent clearly had less than a squadron, but they actually dared to ambush them!

The Japanese cavalry was an aristocratic branch, and a large part of the officers were from aristocrats. In his eyes, Zhang Zhiyi's behavior was simply an insult to himself! This made him furious.

And they are indeed proud of their strength. Just through the sound of gunfire and the fireworks from the barrel, Maeda Ryoichi immediately discovered the location of the soldiers.

This arrogant Japanese nobleman drew out his thirty-two-year-old cavalry saber, charged at the enemy's position on the right front, and launched an attack first.

Behind him, the Japanese soldiers followed closely their squadron leader, and no one showed any timidity.

"Sprint at full speed!"

"Attack forward!"

During the charge, the Japanese cavalry sat on their horses and leaned forward slightly to minimize the possibility of being hit, and at the same time raised their sabers high.

At this time, the two light machine guns on the position fired at the same time. At this time, the Japanese were stuck and could not move up or down. They could not stop or stop, so they had no choice but to continue charging.

They waved their whips and accelerated, thinking that as long as they could get closer, they could make the ambushers pay the price.

The distance with the enemy was only less than half closed, and our own side suffered more than 20 casualties, which was unacceptable to Maeda Ryoichi.

The biggest advantage of the cavalry is speed. Shooting high-speed moving objects is difficult even for veterans.

But Zhang Zhiyi has fought so many large and small battles, and his marksmanship has long been beyond the comparison of ordinary people. He lies in a hidden position, and every bullet in his hand can effectively hit. Sometimes it is a person, sometimes there is

Time is a horse.

When the Japs cavalry were still 120 meters away from the position, there were already more than ten Japs named by Zhang Zhiyi.

No Step Back!
