Chapter 20 The Elegy of the Tenth Cavalry Regiment (Part 2)

Faced with the large-scale charge of the Japanese cavalry, the Chinese army did not show any difficulty in fear of panic.

"Stop, raise your gun." At Cheng Jiaji's signal, the officer of the star issued another order. This order was quickly transmitted to various troops through more than a dozen commands.

Faced with the Japanese army's expected active attack, all the troops of the Independent 100 Brigade stopped advancing. As the starting guns resounded through the sky, in an instant, all the light and heavy machine guns, rifles and various artillery fired on the line of fire facing the Japanese army, and countless projectiles mixed with iron and fire were poured into the Japanese army's ranks.

At this time, the Japanese cavalry that was speeding towards the speeding has already rushed to a very close place to the military formation of the Independent One Hundred Brigades. All kinds of weapons can be attacked to the enemy rushing to the front without any special aim.

The Japanese cavalry rushing in front were knocked down by the rain of bullets, but the one behind rushed forward without fear in the threat of death.

Seeing that the Japanese army was frustrated, Kuantanakasa hurriedly ordered the way with grenades. The Japanese cavalry, who had rushed to the throwing distance, threw grenades at the firepower points on the Chinese army that used as cover infantry and to kill Japanese vehicles.

After blowing off the fire support points of the Chinese army on a car and three large trucks with a grenade, the Japanese cavalry silently endured the attacks of the Chinese army with a hit rate of almost 80% in front of them, and directly hit the neat bayonet wall of the Chinese army.

Although they were facing the advantageous cavalry of the Japanese army, the two companies on the front of the Japanese army's breakthrough were extremely brave. As soon as they met, they relied on their neat formation and stabbed thirty or forty Japanese on horseback with bayonets. The Japanese cavalry was large and they were in desperate situations. They ignored the Japanese corpses hanging on the bayonet wall of the Chinese army and piled up with people. With the huge momentum of the war horse, they rushed out of a hole in the bayonet wall of the Chinese army, and the two companies were about to collapse completely.

Fortunately, before the war started, Cheng Jiaji had already arranged one of the company, mainly veterans, who was on standby at four equal-range points in the encirclement, was ordered to move to this place in a carriage. The combat power of this company was indeed different from that of ordinary troops. Under the leadership of the company commander Xu Cheng, he didn't even breathe, so he carried a bayonet and lined up in three rows. He rushed straight towards the two holes that the Japanese army had just opened, regardless of whether they were hurt or not. He even shot and attacked with a bayonet, and finally blocked the hole in time.

However, although the Japanese army was terrified to attack, the company tried its best to close the gap, but it also suffered a great loss. In just five minutes of the battle, the company suffered more than 50 casualties, accounting for three-fifths of the entire company. (To this extent, the Independent 100 Brigade had no company with complete and full capacity. Although the personnel of the organs and brigades were added to each company as much as possible before the attack, the combat personnel of the company were still seriously insufficient, with an average of only seventy or eighty people per company.)

Seeing that the situation on the middle front was critical, the Chinese army hurriedly squeezed from both sides to the middle. The fire points on the big cars on both sides were also frantically blocking and shooting at the Japanese cavalry who were trying to protrude from this port, causing heavy casualties and injuries to the Japanese cavalry close to the two wings. The firepower of the two wings to block the killing of the Japanese cavalry is certainly a great achievement. But more importantly, this firepower barrier prevents the Japanese army from completely cutting off the Japanese army. The Chinese army on both sides and the three companies in front of the Chinese army on the way forward of the Japanese army. As long as the Chinese army can continuously block the front of the Japanese cavalry, there is no suspense to the outcome of this battle.

On a large cart less than 300 meters away from the front line, Cheng Jiaji, who was urgently dispatching troops in the direction of the Japanese assault, saw this situation in the telescope, and breathed a sigh of relief and said to Gao Shiying who was beside him: "Brother Xiaomin, it seems that this battle is going to be won."

"The brigade has to let the troops on both sides lean towards the center. Just relying on the Japanese to assault the three companies on the front, I am afraid that they will not be able to stop the Japanese even if they fight." Gao Shiying nodded first and expressed his approval of his boss's judgment, and then his consciousness as a chief of staff made him make new suggestions.

"Order the troops on both sides to draw one company to move closer to the center, and the troops in other directions speed up the Japanese attack speed behind the back. There is also a way to draw one from the three companies as reserves to go to the front. The other two companies are on standby behind the Japanese defense line." Cheng Jiaji also understood that the more than 200 brothers on the front could not stop the Japanese cavalry who were brave enough. He was even more conservative than Gao Shiying, so he immediately sent three companies to the back and sent two companies to reserve.

The three companies on the front rushed towards the cavalry, and the two sides fought fiercely. There were often cases where Japanese cavalry were stabbed by several other bayonets at the same time as soon as they killed a Chinese infantry.

As the infantry and the company prepared on both sides were very timely reinforced, the Chinese army in front of the Japanese army had more and more bayonets, and the bayonet walls were getting denser. The horse hooves of the Japanese cavalry were finally blocked by the bayonets of the Chinese soldiers. Then the Chinese army surrounded the backs launched a very well-organized charge from behind the Japanese cavalry, and even Nakasa Murata knew that the Japanese army was defeated at this time.

When Jiang Feng and the remnants of the cavalry battalion were solved with the cooperation of infantry, they cut off the dozens of Japanese cavalrymen from behind and stabbed the 10th Japanese cavalry regiment, the situation of the Japanese army was even more unbearable.

However, Japan has always been the one who never shed tears when he saw the coffin. When Kuantanakasa was about to use special tactics (there is nothing new, it was just the old routine of jade-breaking tactics. That is, he tied his grenade and rode his horse, rushed towards the dense infantry formation of the Chinese army, and killed the opponent by dying together.), a sudden chaos occurred in the frontier of the Chinese army. Seeing this, Kuantanakasasa was busy commanding the remaining Japanese soldiers and launching a new impact on the Chinese army in front of him.

Maybe it was the 10th Cavalry Regiment of Heaven, or maybe the psychological endurance of the Chinese army on the front was really limiting. The Japanese army rushed over the line of defense that seemed insurmountable just now.

Although Kuantan Nakasa also suspected that he was cheating, the Japanese army had no choice now. If they stayed here and did not move, the Chinese army would immediately eat up the last little wealth of the 10th Cavalry Regiment. Only when the Japanese army was able to protrude could they rely on the mobility of the cavalry to make a bloody path.

The Japanese army started the last battle at the command of Murata. At this time, the excellent tactical qualities of the 10th Cavalry Regiment of the Japanese Army were fully demonstrated. Although the entire army had reached the verge of collapse of the entire army, more than half of the troops were also disrupted in the fierce battle just now. Most of the Japanese army was still able to work in an orderly manner under Murata's command. Some of the Japanese army behind spontaneously launched a fierce attack on the Chinese army behind to hold back the pace of the Chinese army's advance, and most of the Japanese army rushed forward from the breakthrough.

The Chinese army seemed to have suddenly lost the courage to fight the Japanese army to the death and made way for the main road. They just concentrated their firepower to attack both sides of the Japanese army's breakthrough team. The Japanese army was already taking a desperate bet at this time, regardless of the continuous attack by the soldiers on both sides of the team being continuously shot off by the Chinese army's dense firepower, and only cared for forward. In Kuantan Nakasa, it was thought that as long as the 10th Cavalry Regiment could rush out, it would be a victory.

The last 150 and 60 officers and soldiers of the 10th Cavalry Regiment of the Japanese Army finally rushed out of the defense line of the Chinese army. Before the Japanese cheered, a rain of bullets woven by machine gun bullets hit the Japanese army. There were 200 people (the two companies prepared and most of Cheng Jiaji's guard company) and the Chinese army was lined up and waiting in front for a long time.
