Anti-Japanese War: My strategist joins the game and awakens the small map!
Chapter 158 Cavalry Company, Attack!
On a mountain road leading to Taigu County, the dense sound of footsteps has never stopped since it appeared.
The figure is like a hare in the woods, moving flexibly and quickly.
With every step, the cloth shoes picked up some dust, which was then shaken off with the next step.
"Adjust your pace according to the breathing method I taught you. See if the cavalry ahead of you has finished their battle? Even if they're riding horses on mountain roads, they can't outrun us."
Ding Jiaguo had already taken off his thick coat and tied it around his waist, and his voice was very low.
After saying that, Ding Jiaguo quickly ran to the front. There were several times when he was running and he felt that he could only hear his own breathing and the sound of his steps. He felt as if he was floating in the air. The continuous running seemed to have numbed his fatigue.
"Hold on, the last three kilometers ahead! The commander is preparing for the siege ahead. Remember, the battle will begin as soon as you arrive. Start adjusting your state now. It's okay to go a little slower. Adjust your breathing..." Ding Jiaguo's voice came again, his eyes fixed on the distance.
The soldiers of the third battalion gritted their teeth and nodded vigorously, but the soldiers of the first and second battalions also gritted their teeth and persevered.
Although they had marched like this before, in terms of distance, none of the marches with full strength and full load had exceeded fifteen kilometers.
Such a high-intensity march has already reached nearly 30 kilometers.
At the same time, on a mountainside two kilometers away from Taigu County.
During Qingming Festival, the fog and rain have stopped, and the earth is as wet as a baby just out of the bath.
A faint light was shining, and the water droplets on the emerging tender leaves reflected points of light. A figure passed by, and the water droplets on the tender leaves fell.
Lin Tianchen was half-crouching beside an old tree, gazing at the Taigu County Tower in the distance.
"Area 45, the Japanese heavy machine gun fire point, area 49, the tower sentry point, have you taken note..."
Lin Tianchen's low voice was heard, and Xiaoshanzi beside him wiped the sweat from his forehead with the corner of his clothes, and skillfully marked on the map.
"I've written it all down, without missing a single detail."
In Xiaoshanzi's hands, one can clearly see that the entire map is densely marked with all the firepower distribution points in the entire Taigu County, as well as some Japanese sentry posts, towers, and other arrangements.
"Commander, Captain Sun and the others have arrived at the designated location." Fang Bailu appeared beside the two of them and said in a low voice.
"Let's go." Lin Tianchen nodded and headed towards the back of the mountain.
As usual, after Lin Tianchen gave everyone the route, he took Xiao Shanzi and went ahead to scout Taigu County in advance.
When Lin Tianchen and the others arrived, they saw Sun Desheng directing everyone to hide the horses.
"Commander, all members of the cavalry company have arrived, please give instructions!"
Sun Desheng saluted, straightened his body and spoke seriously.
His heart was filled with excitement at this moment. Since the cavalry company was established, it was finally going to face its first real battle.
And right from the start, it was a siege.
Lin Tianchen first looked at the visual map. A few kilometers behind the cavalry company, three battalions were running on the road.
After thinking for a moment, his gaze rested on Sun Desheng.
"Sun Desheng, this battle is difficult."
"Captain, our cavalry company is not afraid of difficulties. Just give us your orders. All the members of the cavalry company have been waiting for this for a long time!"
After these words were spoken, Sun Desheng nodded heavily. He had been waiting for this moment for too long.
Whether it was Qiufengting or Luokuipo, because they had not received much training and the terrain and tactics did not support them, they almost all took on the responsibilities of grooms. The war horses became mules, pulling and delivering goods.
In the cavalry company, many soldiers were watching other people in the team killing the Japanese, and several of them wanted to quit the cavalry company.
This time, their cavalry company is finally going to have a battle.
Next to them, a cavalry soldier had a burning look in his eyes.
"On the battlefield, the most taboo is a weakening of momentum. At our current speed, the three battalions will need ten minutes to reach here. I need your cavalry company to open the south gate as quickly as possible within these ten minutes and allow the entire regiment to charge directly in. I will have the pillars' artillery fire provide support."
"Unload the cannonballs from your horses, and head to the flat ground at the foot of the mountain. Simply charge forward and reach the city gate as quickly as possible to complete control of it."
"Remember, you must control the city gate. No matter what, fight to the death until you get the order to retreat!"
Lin Tianchen's gaze fell on Sun Desheng with a serious expression.
Upon hearing this, Sun Desheng held the reins tightly with his right hand, his eyes revealing an unprecedented determination.
"Captain, I, Sun Desheng, can barely read. Even if our entire company dies, we only want to die on the way to the charge. I will definitely open this south gate."
Sun Desheng's expression was extremely serious, and his eyes were more serious than ever before.
The warhorse next to him seemed to sense the fighting spirit, its front hooves constantly paddling the dust beneath its feet, its large, clear eyes gleaming with light.
"The mortars need time to prepare. In five minutes, you will launch a charge from here. I checked the time on this pocket watch. When five minutes are up, you will charge immediately." Lin Tianchen handed a map to Sun Desheng, patted his shoulder lightly, and then looked at the artillery company.
Because it was a long-distance forced march, only half of the artillery company could keep up, and this was based on the cavalry company's help with transportation.
The cavalry company received the combat order and unloaded the artillery shells immediately. Sun Desheng said nothing more and immediately led his men to a flat area at the foot of the mountain according to the route planned on the map.
The war horses seemed to have broken free from their restraints, their hooves leaping high and stepping on the ground.
"Commander, the first and second platoons of the artillery company have arrived!"
Zhuzi panted and saluted Lin Tianchen.
He really gritted his teeth and ran all the way. Although many soldiers could not hold on, Zhuzi still led some soldiers to persevere.
After all, he was required to clear the Japanese firepower points in every battle. In addition, some of the artillery company's artillery shells and mortars were on the backs of the cavalry company's horses. Apart from taking turns carrying the mortars, they were lightly equipped and carried far less weight than the three battalions.
"Arrange the artillery positions immediately."
Lin Tianchen gave the pillar the map with the points that the artillery needed to bombard, and then began to observe again.
Zhuzi didn't hesitate at all. He exhaled gently, quickly adjusted his breathing, and made arrangements.
Behind a hillside below the mountainside, Sun Desheng looked down at the time.
Now there is only one road in front of him, and that is the road leading to Taigu County.
"Aren't you always saying you don't want to be grooms anymore? Now the whole regiment needs us to open this city gate. The opportunity is in our hands. In this battle, either go back to being grooms or die on the way."
"You must remember, if we fail to take this city gate in this battle, the entire regiment will be dragged down by us. If the city gate is not taken, I will wait for you in hell."
Sun Desheng spoke softly, his eyes filled with coldness.
This was the cavalry company's first real battle. For Sun Desheng, even if it meant death, he had to break the city gate.
"Don't worry, Captain. As long as there's a battle, I'll definitely be your best soldier."
"I can't be a groom. I will definitely die on the way to the charge."
After hearing Sun Desheng's words, all the soldiers of the cavalry company responded with shouts, their eyes full of passion while sitting on horseback.
You know, this is the first time many of them have ridden a horse since the formation of the cavalry company.
Since ancient times, war horses have produced countless heroes. Zhao Zilong fought seven battles, spear and horse, in all directions, and eight hundred cavalrymen marched across the river...
There are also those who gallop across the grassland, with thousands of troops avoiding the white robes.
But since the regiment had a cavalry company, they did not fight the Japanese as bravely as imagined. Instead, they became the logistics department of the team, transporting weapons and equipment with war horses.
The timing was wrong and there was no chance to play. Many soldiers in the cavalry company saw the situation but did not say anything and could only endure it silently.
Now, the first siege of the entire regiment was initiated by the cavalry company to open the city gate for the entire regiment. For them, this was never a life-or-death task, but a mission.
Leading the way for the entire regiment and becoming the spearhead of the regiment, every soldier did not show any fear in his eyes. Instead, he stared at Sun Desheng quietly, waiting for their order to charge.
Once upon a time, they could only watch the battalions from the rear and wait for the artillery fire to give the order to attack. Now, artillery fire will also fall in front of their cavalry company, and that artillery fire is the direction of their advance.
The breeze blew, and the horses' hooves rose and fell, constantly stepping on the ground, like bursts of low drumbeats, making the final charge for every soldier.
"Cavalry Company, attack!" Sun Desheng kept looking at his pocket watch, and when the pointer flashed by, he shouted in a deep voice.
As Sun Desheng's voice fell, whistling sounds were heard in the sky.
One mortar shell after another flew over their heads and landed on the city gate tower of Taigu County.
boom!
The huge explosion instantly resounded throughout the world, along with Sun Desheng's voice and the sound of horse hooves...
