Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Xiaoye Cang is not in a hurry at this time, because he knows that his real offensive power is actually on the enemy's side and rear.

    Their infantry and cavalry can both pose a fatal threat to the enemy.

    As long as it is a frontal force, it will be delayed for a short period of time.

    It was also at this time that the Japanese cavalry troops took the lead in arriving at the rear and began to charge Taiping Village.

    In the rear position of Taiping Village, although there is only one platoon of more than 30 defensive troops, they are equipped with two heavy machine guns, four light machine guns, and two rocket launchers.

    This kind of firepower configuration is already comparable to the firepower of a company of the Japanese army.

    It was difficult for the Japanese cavalry to hide on the plains, but there was no need for them to hide. Instead, they directly chose to charge Taiping Village.

    At this time, in their view, the main firepower of Taiping Village had been attracted by their frontal attacking infantry units.

    So if they launch a charge now, the opponent will definitely not be able to react.

    In this way, their people can take advantage of the enemy's empty defenses in the rear and suddenly rush into the village.

    As long as you enter the village, the enemy's defense line will be completely disintegrated and torn apart by them.

    When the time comes, it will be a simple matter to cooperate with their attacking troops on the front and sides to take down such a small village.

    For these Japanese cavalry, this mission should be very easy and enjoyable.

    The Japanese squadron commander pulled out the command knife from his waist, pointed it forward, and roared: "Cavalry, charge!!!!"

    Amid his roar, the Japanese cavalry immediately pulled out their cavalry swords and pointed them forward.

    Then, they kept slapping the horse's butt and launched an extremely fast charge forward.

    Directly in front of them, the soldiers of the Fourth Army stationed here had poked the black muzzles of their guns through the gaps in the wall.

    The Japanese army did not discover the existence of the soldiers of the Fourth Army, which made them mistakenly believe that the enemy's defense did not exist at all. They did not discover the existence of the cavalry in the rear at all.

    Therefore, these Japanese cavalry were faster when charging. It was very difficult for the horses under their crotches to turn into bullets flying towards them, tearing the enemies stationed in the village into pieces.  .

    But at this moment, a loud noise came.  The bombs planted there in advance were detonated in advance by soldiers of the Fourth Army.

    ¡°Boom boom boom!!!¡±

    The Japanese cavalry rushing forward were immediately killed by a sudden explosion of bombs, killing seven or eight people.

    The horses that were blown into two pieces were scattered in different places, and some soldiers did not die immediately after being blown away, but kept making miserable wailing sounds on the ground.

    ¡°Fire!!!¡±

    The platoon leader of the Fourth Army roared angrily, and the soldiers around him immediately launched a frantic fire suppression campaign against the Japanese cavalry.

    Those Japanese cavalry did not stop their charge because they were suddenly attacked by bombs. Instead, they kept accelerating, allowing their horses to rush forward at a faster speed.

    However, at this moment, the flying bullets intertwined into a network, and in the blink of an eye, the area where these Japanese cavalry were completely covered.

    Although the cavalry charge was very fast, facing the dense firepower network arranged in advance and the crossfire formed by machine guns, their charge became meaningless.

    Because under such a dense firepower network, although the cavalry charge looks powerful, it is no different from killing someone.

    On the European battlefield, the cavalry almost lost its original role in the later stages of World War I.

    Because the European armies in the late World War I had begun to equip a large number of Maxim and other heavy machine guns.

    The crossfire caused by these heavy machine guns is a nightmare for all cavalry.

    Those flying bullets, whether they hit the cavalry or the horses under their crotches, can cause fatal blows to these charging knights.

    Therefore, in the later stages of the war, the role of cavalry in combat has changed.

    They have changed from being sharp knives in frontal attacks to being present in roundabout attacks, forward reconnaissance, and even information transmission.

    However, on the East Asian battlefield, there were not many machine guns, and in terms of firepower, they could not compare with Europe at that time.

      Ke Sijun¡¯s troops are different. Their troops are very well-equipped.

    Xia Yang not only equipped his infantry units with a large number of submachine guns and automatic rifles, but also light machine guns and heavy machine guns were their key weapons.

    Not only that, the heavy machine guns and light machine guns they are equipped with have better performance and greater power than most machine guns of this era.

    Therefore, the current charge of the Japanese cavalry was directly crushed by the firepower network of the Fourth Army from the very beginning.

    The Japanese cavalry paid a heavy price for their reckless charge.

    A squadron has a strength of more than 200 cavalry. After such a charge, only about 100 people can come back.

    This time, the Japanese cavalry have realized that when faced with such fierce enemy defense, it is almost impossible for them to rely on the speed and impact of their horses to break through the enemy's machine gun fire coverage arranged in advance.  things.

    They immediately reported their situation to the commander of the Xiaoye Cang Brigade who was commanding the battle at the front.

    When Xiaoye Cang heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then put down the walkie-talkie with some annoyance, and then said: "It's really disappointing. The attack they launched from the rear was easily broken by the enemy.

    It seems that we can only rely on our infantry troops on the flanks.  "

    As he said this, he picked up his telescope again and set his sights on the Japanese squadron that was outflanking.

    At this time, the Japanese army was using the field ridges and canals over there to inch closer to the flank of the village.

    Now this Japanese army has not suffered any attack, but if it continues to advance like this, the enemy will definitely find out.

    Xiaoye Cang said at this time: "It seems that they have done a good job, let the troops on the front continue to attack fiercely, and don't let the enemy take their hands out to block our flank attacking troops."

    "yes!!"

    As his messenger was speaking, he suddenly heard a buzzing sound coming from in front of them.

    Xiaoye Cang picked up the binoculars and saw enemy fighter jets and bombers in the distance, forming a formation and pounced on them.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
