Bright Sword: Leading the Special Operations Squadron to Fight the Japs

"We have already repelled the People's Army once, so their morale should not be very good. I believe that as long as we thwart their attack once more, they will surely scatter like birds and beasts!"

Yuanshan knew the reason, but wasn’t the discussion now about how to thwart their attack again?

"So, what do we do?"

"Organize the most elite troops and take the initiative to attack!"

"Ah? Active attack?"

Wang Meng nodded.

"Yes, since we have no way of guessing which direction they will attack from, why not just take the initiative to attack their positions and suffocate them to death in their nests!"

Wei Dong's eyes lit up and he kept exclaiming, "What a great guy."

"Chief of Staff, what a brilliant idea! This way we don't have to bother guessing the direction of their attack."

"Actually, this is also risky. Our attacking forces must move quickly. Otherwise, we won't be able to find their assembly point, and the defense of Saida will be empty. In this way, we will be easily defeated by them!"

"Chief of Staff, although the cavalry's assembly location has changed a lot, it is not without trace. I will immediately send out scouts and mobilize the masses to find out their location as soon as possible!"

"Okay, organize your cavalry regiment and be ready to attack at any time. Once you locate their position, attack immediately!"

The Liberation Brigade's Cavalry Regiment was a cavalry unit lurking five kilometers east of Saida, ready to attack from the flank at any time.

The distant mountains hurriedly disappeared, and finally at around eight o'clock in the evening, a large number of war horses were found in two valleys five kilometers east of Saida. They were like locusts, covering the sky.

Yuanshan immediately reported the coordinates to Wang Meng.

“Very good, it seems that the enemy is just as we thought. Although the terrain in the east is not as high as that in the north, it is still a little higher, which is better than nothing.

Brigade Commander Yuanshan, if your team sets out now, when can we expect to arrive at the starting point of the attack? "

Yuanshan walked to the sand table, took a look at the current position of the cavalry regiment, and measured it with his eyes.

"Report to the Chief of Staff, half an hour is enough!"

"Okay, I'll give you half an hour to reach the relevant location, but don't alert the enemy. In half an hour we will launch an artillery attack, and then the cavalry regiment will start the attack!

This time, the two enemy cavalry groups have at least 10,000 horses, while you only have more than 2,000 people, so just run away after charging, don't fight to the end!"

Since a large number of war horses have been discovered in the east, he can now shift the focus of defense to the east. In this way, even if the Liberation Brigade Cavalry Regiment fails to defeat the enemy, there will be a backup defense plan.

Half an hour later, the mountain artillery of the Liberation Brigade and the Volunteer Army began to bombard the war horses in the valley. The sound of artillery mixed with the neighing of war horses resounded through the dark night.

The cavalry regiment of the Liberation Brigade rushed into the valley like a whirlwind and kept firing heavily at the dark shadows. But when they rushed to the front, they found that there were only war horses and no cavalry in the valley!

"Oops, we've been fooled! Report to the headquarters immediately!"

At this time, Akif, who was far away in the People's Army headquarters, smiled strangely and ordered the entire army to attack.

The First Cavalry Division came galloping from two kilometers away, rushing towards the two thousand cavalrymen with the momentum of a tornado.

Fortunately, the Liberation Brigade Cavalry Regiment discovered that something was wrong and reported it immediately. Wang Meng immediately ordered them to retreat and began to block the shooting.

However, many Liberation Brigade soldiers were still deeply trapped and found it difficult to escape.

The commander of the besieged cavalry regiment sent a message to the headquarters: Most of the Liberation Brigade Cavalry Regiment has broken through. For the sake of victory, follow our coordinates and cover with artillery fire! Cover with artillery fire!

After confirming that the telegram was delivered, smash the radio station.

More than one hundred soldiers of the cavalry regiment and more than six thousand enemies launched the final charge!

"Brigade Commander Yuanshan, these are your soldiers, give the orders!"

Yuanshan's face was dark, and he slammed his fist on the table fiercely, almost roaring:

"Fire! Fire!"

The artillery groups of the Liberation Brigade and the Volunteer Army launched another bombardment. This tactic of cutting off one's arm to survive disrupted Akfu's rhythm. More than 6,000 cavalrymen lost their way in the artillery fire and fled to Tibet.

But where can one hide from the raging shrapnel?

The People's Army's 1st Cavalry Division fled in panic.

In this battle alone, the People's Cavalry 1st Division lost more than 3,000 people, and the Liberation Brigade lost more than 1,000 people.

Akfu was furious. He didn't expect that there were warriors in the world who were more courageous than the soldiers of Country E, and commanders who were more decisive than him.

"Order the 2nd Cavalry Division to attack immediately!"

At Akif's order, more than 7000 troops of the nd Cavalry Division, which had been lurking in the west of Saida, launched another attack on Saida.

When the battle report came from the front line, Wang Meng felt like he was facing a powerful enemy. Fortunately, he did not use the 107 rocket launcher when attacking the cavalry in the valley just now.

Although Wang Meng was reluctant, now was the most critical moment. As long as they could withstand this round of attack, the two cavalry divisions of the People's Army would be like small loaches and could not make any waves.

"All artillery units, including the 107 rocket launcher unit, immediately launch an artillery attack on the enemy cavalry cluster in the west of Sayda. Don't be afraid of wasting shells, just fire them all!"

The artillerymen swung their elbows and shells landed among the People's Army cavalry.

Even though the artillery fired at an unprecedented speed, a large number of cavalry still broke into the front of the position.

Akif told the 2nd Cavalry Division that there was no defense in the west, or only negligible sporadic resistance, so when they rushed out of the artillery coverage area, they might have seen victory.

When they raised their sabers, they were horrified to see a number of dark shadows appearing on the distant horizon, and tongues of fire seemed to be shooting towards them.

Compared with the Type 42 light machine gun and Type 1200 heavy machine gun with average firing rate, the theoretical firing rate of the MG after replacement reaches rounds per minute.

If bullets were compared to raindrops, then the bullets faced by the 2nd Cavalry Division were heavy rain, hitting them so hard that they could not open their eyes.

Each squad of the Volunteer Army had a general-purpose machine gun, and coupled with the machine guns equipped by the battalion's heavy machine gun company, it was a nightmare for the charging cavalry.

In addition, those semi-automatic rifles were not vegetarians either. Bullet after bullet knocked the People's Army cavalry off their horses, killing them instantly or having their stomachs trampled by the following war horses.

The two men fought fiercely until the arrival of the Volunteer Army reinforcements, and finally drove out the enemy cavalry completely.

At dawn, Wang Meng walked to the position in the west of Saida with a gloomy face. Looking at the corpses all over the battlefield, especially the faces of many volunteer soldiers, he was extremely sad.

"How are the casualties?"

"More than 500 people were killed and more than 1,200 were injured. The regiment has basically lost its combat effectiveness!"

"Hold!"
