Chapter 257 Cavalry Battle
The Japanese headquarters in Ping An City.
Nakayama Aoki sat leisurely in front of the tea table in the office.
He gently picked up a cup of steaming tea, and the rising smoke exuded a faint tea fragrance.
He took a sip slowly, the mellow taste spread in his mouth, the fragrance of tea filled the air, making him feel particularly relaxed.
Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard outside the office.
Then there was a knock on the office door, and the crisp sound seemed particularly loud in the quiet room.
"Come in."
Nakayama Aoki's voice is steady and powerful.
After hearing the response, the adjutant pushed open the door and walked into the office.
He walked straight to Zhongshan Qingmu and whispered, "Report to the division commander, the transport convoy was attacked by the enemy, the entire army was wiped out, and all the supplies were stolen."
"Bagaya road!"
Nakayama Aoki roared angrily, his face instantly becoming extremely gloomy.
"The convoy's route is top secret. How could the enemy move so quickly?"
The adjutant immediately explained: "Captain, based on the analysis of the situation at the scene, the convoy was attacked by a cavalry unit, and their mobility is very strong."
Nakayama Aoki nodded slightly. If it was a cavalry unit attacking the convoy, that would be understandable.
The cavalry has very strong mobility and can easily catch up with the transport convoy. There is no need to know the intelligence in advance. As long as someone discovers the transport convoy, the cavalry can quickly catch up.
It seems that the independent column had a strong cavalry team, otherwise the transport squadron would not have been destroyed so quickly.
Zhongshan Qingmu said: "Adjutant, this enemy cavalry unit must be destroyed. You must contact the cavalry regiment immediately and ask them to attack immediately and destroy the cavalry of the independent column."
"Hai."
The Japanese adjutant accepted the order and quickly turned around and left the office.
Nakayama Aoki walked to the window and looked at the sky outside.
In the vast sky, white clouds were floating and the sun was shining, but they could not dispel the haze in his heart.
He muttered in his heart: "The independent column can't destroy my supply line, so let me see how powerful your cavalry is."
............
10 month 21 day.
The Japanese cavalry regiment set out from Yangquan and rushed to Ping'an City overnight.
A cavalry team consisting of more than 2400 Japanese cavalrymen galloped quickly on the road. The sound of galloping horses was as deafening as thunder, raising countless dust.
When Cavalry Regiment Commander Jiro Tamura learned that the Independent Column had a strong cavalry team, he was filled with challenges and fighting spirit.
He quickly led the cavalry regiment and set off. He wanted to let the Eighth Route Army see what cavalry combat was like.
The Japanese cavalry regiment that was defeated by Sun Desheng before was just a local garrison unit, while the Tamura Regiment was a cavalry field regiment, and its combat effectiveness and troop quality were much stronger than those of the local garrison units.
Therefore, Jiro Tamura was very confident that he could destroy the Eighth Route Army's cavalry.
After arriving in Ping'an County, the Tamura Regiment immediately launched a large-scale search for the cavalry regiment and burned, killed and looted the villages in the base in an attempt to force the cavalry regiment to come out and fight.
Their behavior was like that of a demon, bringing great pain and disaster to the local people.
the other side.
When Sun Desheng learned that the Japanese cavalry were burning, killing and looting on the edge of the base, he was filled with anger and indignation.
He knew that the devils' actions were a brutal trampling on the people in the base area, and he could not tolerate such atrocities to continue.
So he immediately led the soldiers of the cavalry regiment and galloped towards Ping'an City without hesitation.
Outside Beihe Village.
A cavalry scout rode back to the team quickly on his horse with an anxious look on his face.
He found Sun Desheng and said anxiously, "Report to the regiment commander, there are 200 Japanese cavalrymen outside Beihe Village ahead, and they are advancing towards Beihe Village."
Sun Desheng heard this, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he immediately shouted an order: "Comrades, we have found the Japanese cavalry ahead, follow me to charge and kill them!"
Following Sun Desheng's order, more than 2000 soldiers of the cavalry regiment shouted in unison and rushed towards Beihe Village like a surging torrent.
The sound of horse hooves resounded through the sky, and the dust flew everywhere, creating a spectacular scene.
Their figures are moving rapidly across the earth, as if they are a group of brave and fearless gods of war, ready to fight to defend their homes and for justice.
The Japanese cavalry who were about to enter the village suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves. They turned around and saw a cavalry team of the Eighth Route Army coming at them like a whirlwind from the side.
Their faces suddenly turned extremely ugly because they saw the Eighth Route Army's cavalry everywhere in the mountains and plains, and there were at least thousands of them at a glance.
With their limited military strength, they are simply unable to compete with such a large enemy force.
"idiot!"
The Japanese squadron leader cursed. He realized that the situation was not good and immediately ordered: "If you find the enemy cavalry regiment, retreat immediately and return to the main force."
Upon hearing this, more than 200 Japanese cavalrymen turned around without hesitation and fled desperately to the rear.
Their hearts were filled with fear and despair, and they only wanted to escape from this dangerous place as soon as possible.
Sun Desheng led the cavalry regiment to chase the Japanese closely. They were like hungry wolves and did not miss any opportunity.
The Japanese cavalry whipped their horses desperately, but still could not get rid of the Eighth Route Army that was chasing them closely.
At this moment, the Japanese cavalry discovered that another cavalry team appeared in front of them, which was the cavalry battalion chasing from another direction.
As soon as the two sides met, they immediately engaged in a fierce battle.
The sound of submachine gun fire rang out one after another, and the Japanese cavalry were knocked off their horses one by one.
The Japanese squadron leader was stunned by the scene in front of him.
These enemy cavalrymen had no martial ethics at all. Not only were they numerous, but they also used submachine guns, leaving the enemy powerless to fight back.
In the end, the Japanese squadron leader fled the battlefield in a panic with the remaining dozen or so Japanese soldiers, running desperately to the rear.
After Jiro Tamura learned the news about the Independent Column Cavalry Regiment, he immediately led the cavalry regiment to attack Sun Desheng.
In the afternoon, the sun shines on the earth.
The two sides met near Nancun, and more than 2000 cavalrymen of the Independent Regiment and more than 2200 Japanese cavalrymen of the Tamura Regiment deployed in a plain area.
The spectacular scene makes people feel as if they are on an ancient battlefield.
Jiro Tamura was riding on his horse, looking through a telescope at the cavalry of the independent regiment opposite him, his expression solemn.
He didn't expect that the opposing cavalry were equipped with submachine guns, which made them invincible in the second half of the charge. He had to rush into the enemy's team as quickly as possible and engage in hand-to-hand combat.
