Just after the car passed, the horses that were originally galloping suddenly stopped as if they were under a spell, as if someone had pressed the pause button.

The cavalrymen running in the front were caught off guard and were thrown out like kites with broken strings, drawing arcs in the air.

The cavalrymen behind were terrified when they saw this and wanted to rein in their horses immediately, but the horses did not obey their commands at all. Instead, they seemed to be stimulated by something and galloped forward more excitedly.

The Japanese soldiers who were thrown out in front were still struggling in pain on the ground, their bodies twisting as they tried to stand up again.

However, before they could get up, the horses galloping from behind trampled on them mercilessly, turning them into meat patties in an instant.

For a moment, the open space was filled with miserable screams and wails, as if hell had come to earth.

When the Japanese cavalrymen behind saw this sudden change, they were thinking about how to control their horses to stop.

Although they were mentally prepared, the bloody scene before them still made them feel terrified.

Because there was a sudden commotion behind, the convoy that was originally moving in an orderly manner suddenly stopped.

The Japanese soldiers jumped off the cars in panic. They stared with wide eyes and horror at the hundreds of horses in front of them that had stopped in the same area, eating grass leisurely and oblivious to everything around them.

There were already dead and wounded people on the ground nearby, and the Japanese soldiers who got off the car hurried forward to rescue them.

"Baga! What the hell is going on? Colonel Fujiwara is still waiting for our support at the front. How could you losers get into an accident here!" An officer roared in frustration, his voice particularly harsh in the chaos.

"Report!" At this moment, a breathless Japanese signalman stumbled over, his face filled with fear, and his voice trembling, he shouted, "Colonel Fujiwara Masamune...died in battle! The 28th Regiment of the 5th Division...all of them were killed in action!"

While they were talking, they were completely unaware that white smoke was continuously coming out from several places around them.

The Japanese soldiers who were sent to check the condition of the horses, as well as the horses that were originally standing quietly and eating, all fell down slowly.

"Oh no, there's a trap..." Suddenly, a Japanese soldier seemed to have noticed something unusual and shouted in horror.

Hearing the shout, Ichiro Matsuda became alert instantly and immediately led his men to evacuate the dangerous area.

They quickly jumped into the car and stepped on the accelerator, trying to escape from this place where more dangers might be hidden.

The Japanese soldiers behind noticed the white smoke and quickly left the area.

Ichiro Matsuda and his companions had just driven a short distance when they heard a series of deafening explosions ahead.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!..."

With loud bangs, the Baga motorcycle was blown into pieces, with fragments flying everywhere.

Immediately afterwards, more explosions rang out one after another, and the area was completely caught in the range of artillery fire.

The sound of explosions over there resounded through the sky. Jiang Wenming, who was observing not far away, saw through a telescope that they had entered the minefield.

However, what puzzled him was why so much white smoke suddenly came out of the area in front?

Just as Jiang Wenming was thinking hard, he noticed that there was a trap set by Xiaoyun.

So, he turned to look at Jiang Jiyun, only to see Jiang Jiyun's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a sly smile, and then he said casually: "I put white phosphorus powder under the dry grass over there."

"As long as the horses accidentally kicked up the dry grass in that area, the bottle would break and the phosphorus powder would spontaneously combust when it came into contact with the air. As long as one area caught fire, the surrounding areas would also catch fire."

Jiang Wenming suddenly realized, "You also sprinkled sleeping powder on the grass."

Jiang Jiyun nodded. She originally wanted to use poison, but she couldn't bear to give up the horses, so she changed to a drug.

Jiang Wenming and Xiaotian looked at each other. Both of them felt very unfamiliar with this so-called "white phosphorus powder".

However, now is obviously not the time to ask further questions, because the Japanese soldiers over there have fallen into chaos due to the explosion.

Xiaotian quickly leaned close to Jiang Wenming's ear and asked, "Should we take action now?"

Jiang Wenming looked at Xiaotian's eager expression and said, "Wait a moment, let's see."

At this moment, outside Shiba County, the guerrillas and the national army who were waiting quietly suddenly heard a sound coming from a few kilometers away.

Luo Zhen's heart tightened, he quickly turned his head and looked in the direction of Yu Huaisheng.

Seeing that Yu Huaisheng also had a puzzled look on his face, it was obvious that he was also surprised by the sudden voice.

Zhang Ping was extremely anxious after hearing the sound.

He quickly ran to Yu Huaisheng and said anxiously, "Captain, I suspect it was those two adults and one child who did this! There are only three of them. We have to go and support them!"

When Yu Huaisheng heard his report, his brows furrowed slightly, and a sense of uneasiness arose in his heart.

He anxiously searched the crowd for the two people wearing masks, but when he looked around, he couldn't find them.

Yu Huaisheng turned to look at Zhang Ping and asked anxiously, "How did you report when they left?"

Zhang Ping was filled with regret. He quickly explained, "I thought they were just gathering information, and since our friendly forces had just arrived and you were discussing the war with them, I thought I'd tell you later."

"I really didn't expect that they would directly intercept the Japanese cavalry, Captain! I ask you to let me support them!" Zhang Ping's voice revealed a sense of determination.

Although Yu Huaisheng was a little hesitant, he knew that the task he was shouldering was important and he must not leave the Shiba County position easily.

He frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then shook his head firmly.

"Zhang Ping," Yu Huaisheng said in a low and serious voice, "you lead a team of fifteen to investigate. If it really is them, no matter how great the difficulties or obstacles, you must bring them back safely at all costs."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ping straightened up immediately, saluted Yu Huaisheng with a standard military salute, and responded loudly: "Yes, I guarantee to complete the mission!"

At this time, Jiang Wenming and others took advantage of the fact that the Japanese were dizzy and quickly took out the mortars and started firing.

Artillery shells fell like raindrops on the Japanese positions. The artillery shells exploded when they hit the ground, detonating the mines that had not been stepped on there. The series of explosions that had finally stopped in an instant rang out again.
