Chapter 42 The new 15th Cavalry Battalion!

Ten minutes passed quickly, even though Xu Rui was very determined to send troops to garrison Wanjia Town.

However, firstly, the troops in hand have just been restored to full strength and they cannot lose too much. Secondly, Wanjia Town is close to Heyuan County, where the Bantian Regiment is currently stationed.

Sakata Nobori should know about the battle in Wanjia Town very soon.

At that time, Sakata Nobori may send troops to counterattack Wanjia Town.

Once the Japanese troops sent by Sakata Nobori are entangled here in Wanjia Town, the gains will outweigh the losses.

In addition, the battle has now been completed and 522 war horses have been captured, which must be brought back to Heiyun Village as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if the enemy gets entangled in a fight, the war horse may not be able to be taken away.

Therefore, Xu Rui immediately commanded the troops to evacuate Wanjia Town ten minutes later and return to Heiyun Village.

After the troops commanded by Xu Rui withdrew from Wanjia Town, the scouts of the new Eighth Route Army regiment who had already been lurking in the mountains and forests outside Azi Wanjia Town saw the raiding troops of the 303rd Regiment of the Jinsui Army withdrawing from Wanjia Town.

, then he sneaked into Wanjia Town with his head down.

"hiss!!!"

Seeing the bodies of the puppet cavalry battalion soldiers who were killed in Wanjia Town, especially He Qiyue who was killed in the command room of the puppet cavalry battalion headquarters, the scout of the new Eighth Route Army regiment immediately realized that the raid on Wanjia Town was

The Jinsui army in the town is not simple.

"Damn it, the war horse is gone!"

After this scout from the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army made a detailed tour of Wanjia Town, he found that all the horses in the puppet cavalry battalion stationed in Wanjia Town were gone. He immediately blurted out a curse.

"We must report to the group leader!"

Seeing this situation, the scouts of the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army who knew that their regiment commander had already targeted the horses of the puppet cavalry battalion in Wanjia Town immediately ran out of Wanjia Town and then hurried towards the current headquarters of the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army in Zheng.

Jiapu rushed forward and reported the latest situation to the group leader Li Yunlong.

At this time, Xu Rui commanded the troops who raided the puppet cavalry camp in Wanjia Town to ride on the captured war horses and return to Heiyun Village along the same route.

Along the way, Xu Rui was cheerful.

The battle to attack Wanjia Town ended very quickly as expected.

Facing the assault force with the superior firepower of thunder cannons, grenade launchers, and light and heavy machine guns, He Qiyue's puppet cavalry battalion was simply vulnerable.

Only a few of the raiding force were killed, while the rest were uninjured.

"Tuanzuo, we are still a few minutes away from Heiyun Village."

Xu Rui, who was cheerful, soon heard the vanguard sent someone to report on the return journey after more than 20 minutes had passed.

"Got it! Order brothers to speed up the march and return to Heiyun Village."

Xu Rui waved his hand and laughed loudly.

"Yes, Danzao!!!"

The soldier who was anxious to report immediately nodded and then clapped his horse back to order the troops to speed up their march.

Fortunately, on the way back, almost everyone had a horse, so the return speed was very fast.

At 2:33 in the afternoon, Xu Rui commanded the Third Battalion of the 303rd Regiment of the Jinsui Army and other troops who were attacking Wanjia Town, and rode their horses back to the foot of Heiyunzhai Mountain.

At this time, Luo Youdu, chief of staff of the 303rd Regiment, had already led 1st Battalion Commander Chen Zhenping, 2nd Battalion Commander Liu Shuoming and several others to stand in line at the foot of the wall in front of Heiyun Village to welcome Xu Rui's triumphant return.

“Duanzao!!”

“Duanzao!!”

“Duanzao!!”

Luo Youdu and others saw Xu Rui turn over and dismount, and then they all laughed.

"Brothers, this is a great victory!"

Xu Rui chuckled and said.

"Well done to the group!"

“The group is awesome!”

Chen Zhenping and Liu Shuoming laughed loudly.

Chief of Staff Luo Youdu smiled at Xu Rui and said, "Team leader, how was the result?".

"Chief of Staff, you have also seen that all the horses in the puppet cavalry battalion were captured, and they are all top-quality horses. There are 522 horses in total."

Xu Rui patted the war horse beside him and said with a smile: "They are all ours."

"In addition, all the troops of the puppet cavalry battalion commander He Qiyue were wiped out and captured. A large number of weapons and equipment were seized. Although some are very old-fashioned, they are still weapons."

Chief of Staff Luo Youdu smiled and said: "Not bad, not bad.".

"Sure enough, as soon as Tuanzuo takes action, success will be immediate. Tuanzuo, let's go in!"

With that said, Luo Youdu pointed behind him.

"Um!!"

Xu Rui nodded, and then he, Liu Shuoming and others returned to the Tiger Hall on the main peak of Heiyun Village.

After everyone gathered in the Tiger Hall, Xu Rui asked Chu Hua, commander of the third battalion, to explain in detail the specific battle process of the attack on the puppet cavalry camp in Wanjia Town to Luo Youdu and others.

Luo Youdu and others all clapped their hands, they were worthy of being in the group, their performance was indeed awesome.

"Tuanzuo, Wanjia Town is also an important town stronghold. It would be a pity to capture it but not defend it."

Chief of Staff Luo Youdu said afterwards, his tone was pity.

Xu Rui shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not a pity."

"Our current military strength has not been restored for a long time. What's more, Wanjia Town is close to Heyuan County and is located in the northwest of Heyuan County. Although we have captured Wanjia Town, once the Bantian Alliance in Heyuan County attacks, we will

Wanjia Town is easily entangled and beaten by Bantian United’s troops.”

After a pause, Xu Rui continued, "My idea is that after the Bantian Alliance is eliminated, it will be possible to send troops to control Wanjia Town."

"Now, the time is not right!"

When Luo Youdu heard this, he thought about it and realized that this was true.

"The group is considering it!"

Luo Youdu nodded, and then said: "Regiment leader, what should I do with the captured horses?".

"Assigned to each battalion?"

Later, Luo Youdu changed the topic to the 522 captured war horses.

Hearing this, the eyes of First Battalion Commander Chen Zhenping and others lit up.

"Tuanzuo, give me a battalion!"

"Lao Luo, you kid wants to eat alone!"

"They should all be handed over to my Third Battalion. It was my Third Battalion that fought against Wanjia Town!"

The three battalion commanders Chen Zhenping and others "robbed" the captured war horses in an instant.

Having war horses can improve the mobility of the troops. Chen Zhenping and these guys are not fuel-efficient lamps, so they immediately started fighting for it.

Seeing this, Xu Rui couldn't help but smile bitterly, and immediately waved his hand to signal Chen Zhenping and others who were fighting to calm down.

Then, Xu Rui smiled and said: "Instead of dispersing the war horses to each battalion for use, it is better to allocate some war horses to supplement each battalion and strengthen the cavalry reconnaissance power of each battalion."

"I decided to concentrate on using most of the remaining war horses and establish a cavalry unit to be used as the mobile unit of the entire regiment."

After hearing this, Chen Zhenping and others really calmed down, and after thinking about it, there was a lot to be done.

In particular, Chief of Staff Luo Youdu clapped his hands and said in agreement: "The team members are still thoughtful."

"Instead of allocating war horses to each battalion, which weakens the size of these more than 500 war horses, it is better to concentrate most of the war horses and establish an elite cavalry unit, which can be used as the most mobile unit of our regiment, which can achieve miraculous results.

."

Xu Rui nodded and said: "So, I decided to form a new cavalry unit. How about calling it the new 15th Cavalry Battalion?".

"Bros!!!"
