Bright Sword: From Soldier to Brigade Commander

Defeated!

Countless devils flew into the sky, and countless devils hurriedly sought shelter and trenches.

There were also countless Japanese soldiers who were terrified and had lost all their fighting spirit and turned around to flee.

No matter how rigorously people are trained, they will instinctively escape when faced with an irresistible danger.

When the artillery fire stopped, Duan Peng's troops, the county brigade and the remnants of the militia launched a retaliatory attack on the enemy.

More than 200 militiamen who covered Duan Peng's artillery used more than 10 machine guns to fire fiercely.

Rifle fire was raging.

The remaining soldiers of the county brigade also fired with more than 10 machine guns and dozens of rifles.

The Japanese officers and soldiers suffered heavy casualties and believed that they had been ambushed by the Chinese army's fresh forces, so they were forced to retreat.

The Japanese commander, Major General Chida, who was coming from behind, was furious and shouted at the troops not to retreat but to fight back.

But what does his shouting mean?

Even if his cavalry followers shouted, they could not stop the retreat.

Su Fei's troops have returned to Duan Peng's troops.

"First Battalion, charge. Second Battalion, as the second echelon, charge from a distance of 50 meters."

This is the best fighter.

Chase and kill the enemy, directly defeat the enemy's southern line troops, and thus shake the enemy's overall situation.

Su Fei personally mounted his horse and charged forward. All the officers and soldiers of the first battalion also mounted their horses, roared, and followed suit in the charge.

The troops of the second battalion waited for a while, then mounted their horses, and at the shouts and calls of the battalion commanders and company commanders, they also waved their sabers and launched a charge.

Su Fei's army of one thousand people launched the largest charge.

However, this is not a mindless charge, but a carefully planned one.

All officers and soldiers of the First Battalion were equipped with concentrated firepower, including 150 light machine guns, 30 grenade launchers, 30 Mauser pistols, 50 rifles, as well as sabers and other weapons.

They did not charge into battle with hand-to-hand combat, but used cold weapons and the rapid maneuverability of war horses to fight against the Japanese army's collapsing escape and the counterattacks of rifles and machine gun bullets.

The officers and soldiers of the Second Battalion carried rifles and sabers, as well as 15 mortars, more than 10 machine guns, and some artillery shells and bullets.

These two cavalry battalions, although they looked like field cavalry, were actually concentrated fire units carrying large quantities of weapons and ammunition.

"kill!"

Su Fei's first battalion of cavalry formed up and charged while firing fiercely.

Machine gun fire and burst fire.

Especially the three-shot burst.

During the charge, the soldiers were divided into classes, each consisting of three people. If the soldier in front ran out of machine gun bullets and needed to reload, he would stop and let other soldiers charge forward.

The three of them took turns advancing to the front line, maintaining their firepower and suppressing the enemy.

This is also the principle of three-three system.

Later, they learned the tactics of the infantry attack group from the Fourth Field Army.

"Kill, kill, kill, kill!" Su Fei's troops charged and fired at the same time, and the Japanese army was beaten so badly that they could not raise their heads.

There were 150 light machine guns, about 30 of which could serve as frontline weapons at the same time. They were already powerful weapons. In their strafing and charging, a large number of Japanese soldiers were shot and killed.

More Japanese soldiers, who were originally lying on the ground to fight back and hide, now saw that the Chinese cavalry was coming, covering the mountains and plains, endless. The feeling of despair and suffocation rushed into their heads, instantly destroying all their confidence.

This is an absolutely uncontested battle.

They saw it from a distance and ran away: "Hurry, hurry, the enemy cavalry is coming."

Su Fei’s troops chased the enemy and fought!

Behind the enemy's escape is the target of pursuit.

During the rout, the Japanese army suffered heavy losses.

The Japanese troops were terrified.

Su Fei's army swept forward, quickly chasing the Japanese army, strafing, trampling, and knocking them away. Some machine gunners ran out of bullets and were unwilling to retreat to the second and third lines, so they simply threw away their machine guns, drew their sabers, and slashed at the enemy.

Some soldiers went crazy and smashed the Japanese soldiers' heads with machine guns.

Thousands of riders roll across the plain!

So spectacular and heroic!

The remaining soldiers of the county brigade saw this and encouraged each other. They launched a charge from the flank and followed the cavalry to attack the enemy.

They stabbed the resisting enemies to death with bayonets, shot them to death with bullets, and bombed them with grenades.

Their focus was to eliminate those devils who were still resisting stubbornly. These devils posed a great threat to the cavalry.

"Strike the enemy, protect our cavalry, comrades of the county brigade, militia company, charge! We can't let the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army laugh at us, we can't let the devils triumph!"

Some wounded soldiers were lying in the trenches, shooting at the enemy.

There were also some soldiers who insisted on charging forward, charging in the front, leaving a long trail of blood behind them.

Duan Peng's troops paused fighting and immediately began observing, bombing the enemy with the remaining artillery shells once they found them.

At the same time, most of them hid in anti-artillery caves to avoid being covered by the Japanese artillery. They were the hardest hit area that the Japanese army paid the most attention to.

This is also what Su Fei repeatedly asked them.

Su Fei's cavalry unit is equivalent to 70% of the Japanese cavalry battalion's strength, but the firepower of its machine guns and grenade launchers is definitely far greater.

150 light machine guns.

At least 20 of them were provided by the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, and their performance was better than that of Japanese machine guns.

After rushing 3 kilometers in one breath, the remnants of the Japanese army's first infantry battalion were completely wiped out!

More than 600 people.

crush.

At this time, the mountain artillery of the US and Japanese army had taken emergency action, intercepting and bombing the charging Su Fei cavalry troops and carrying out suppressive bombing on Duan Peng's artillery battalion in the distance.

The effect is hard to describe.

More than a hundred Su Fei cavalrymen were killed or injured in the explosion!

It was a devastating loss, but it did not stop the cavalry charge.

They also fired hundreds of artillery shells at the position of Duan Peng's cavalry battalion, but did not injure or kill many people. Even the mortars only destroyed two.

There was no problem with the Japanese artillery targets.

The cavalry must be intercepted, but the enemy's artillery must also be suppressed, right?

The captain of the Japanese mountain artillery battalion was actually panicked. He never thought that his opponent was so powerful, even stronger than the main force of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army!

For several years, they had absolute artillery advantage in their battles with the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, the Eighth Route Army, and other nationalist troops. The authentic Shanxi-Suiyuan Army also had more than a dozen artillery regiments with strong firepower. However, in recent years, they have been hiding in the western part of Shanxi and are not easily provoked. The artillery regiments in particular dare not move around. The artillery of the 26th Division is absolutely unique in the face of the Eighth Route Army and the militia. What can they be afraid of?

Now they suddenly encounter a well-equipped opponent, and they don’t know how to fight!

Su Fei's cavalry continued to charge desperately, regardless of anything, charge, charge, charge!

Don't be afraid of enemy artillery fire, machine guns, rifles, mines, or hand grenades. Charge, charge, charge.

Sweep with the machine gun in your hand, shoot with the rifle, and slash with the saber!

Kill kill kill.

After paying the price of 200 people, Su Fei's cavalry unit directly rushed into the area where the Japanese army's second infantry battalion was located!
