Brigadier Shu Xuefeng watched the Japanese soldiers not far away struggling under artillery fire.

As the cavalry brigade commander, he was not satisfied with today's battle.

The cavalry was suppressed too much by Japanese firepower. The attack just now is an example of this.

Now the infantry tanks have rushed in front of the Japanese position.

Brigadier Shu Xuefeng did not hesitate at all and personally led the entire brigade to charge against Guangsue Dashu's brigade.

The advantage of cavalry is that it is fast and aggressive like the wind.

The Japanese soldiers of Hirosue Daiki's brigade were being bombarded by artillery fire, and were attacked by tanks from the front. The entire defense line was already stretched to the left and right.

At this time, a cavalry force rushed over from the flank. Captain Kobayashi Tetsuya shouted: "Hold it! Hold it!"

It is to order the Japanese under his command to withstand the charge of the cavalry.

The grenade launcher of Tetsuya Kobayashi's squadron had been killed, and the machine gun had also gone out.

There are only more than a hundred Type 38 rifles left, and they can be fired every time they pull the bolt.

Their firepower is really overestimating their ability to block the charge of an elite cavalry force.

Captain Su Hong was the first to rush into the Japanese defense line, waving his saber, dragging the saber diagonally with the blade facing outward.

The high-speed running horse with the saber like a saw dragged over the squadron leader Kobayashi Tetsuya.

Half of its body was cut open at once, and the devil fell to the ground and could not get up again.

The two Japs, Taro Ishigaki and Rintaro Komatsu, had just placed the mortars. Amidst the rumble of the shells exploding, they heard the sound of horse hooves.

When he raised his head, he saw the bright saber slashing towards him like lightning. Shi Tantaro quickly shrank his head. Wei Ming's sword was only slightly downward.

With one knife, he cut the Japanese man open from his left shoulder to his right rib.

When Rintaro Komatsu saw that his friend was almost cut in two, he was so frightened that he ran away quickly.

However, Wei Ming caught up with him on horseback and slashed him with a knife. Rintaro Komatsu's head was cut off and flew three or four meters away.

Brigadier Han Ziang saw that the cavalry had rushed into the Japanese position and immediately ordered the artillery bombardment to stop.

The tanks stopped firing and just continued charging.

When Battalion Commander Tao Yingfa led his team to rush into position behind the tank, the hastily established position of the Hirosue Dashu Infantry Brigade was already covered with blood.

The cavalry led by Brigadier Shu all fought with sabers. Each of the Japanese corpses on the ground had their heads cut off or half of their shoulders removed.

In this battle, Commander Li Zhongxian already understood that before the Japanese heavy weapons were knocked out, the cavalry team launched a charge and suffered very heavy casualties.

In recent years, the Japanese cavalry has been invincible in the Northeast. In fact, the reason is that there are too few machine guns in the anti-Japanese troops, which cannot cause a devastating blow to the fast charging cavalry.

With this summary, Commander Li ordered: the tanks charge quickly in front, and the cavalry follows the tanks and breaks into the Japanese position. Then the cavalry can play its role.

The infantry entered the battlefield last.

This can take advantage of the tank's rapid maneuverability and defeat the Japanese as quickly as possible.

Division Commander Li Zhongxian temporarily adjusted the order of attack, and the tanks at the front sped up.

The Japanese commander on the front line was Captain Koda Zhilian, and the task he accepted was to attack Xingcheng.

What he never expected was that before the team reached Xingcheng, they were attacked by the national army.

The Koda Infantry Regiment immediately changed from a planned attack to an unplanned encounter between the two armies on a narrow road!

At this time, Captain Koda Chiren gave the order to Captain Hirosue Daiki to attack. It believed that both sides encountered each other unprepared.

Whoever attacks first takes the initiative!

However, Captain Hirosue Daiki reported: What they encountered was the national cavalry, and the infantry could not attack at all and could only take a defensive position.

Captain Koda Chiren did not expect that the entire Hirosue Battalion would be destroyed as soon as it defended.

Now the national army's offensive team turned into a tank charge, catching Tanaka's battalion by surprise.

Captain Tanaka Hinata was not a fool. His battalion had no time to establish a line of defense simply because it took less than fifteen minutes in total from the time the national army was discovered.

No one would have thought that the Hirosue Brigade, which had many Japanese soldiers, could only hold off the national army for fifteen minutes!

Captain Tanaka Hyuga could only order the entire brigade to crawl down on the spot, even if it was a defense line established.

When it saw the tank, the National Army tank was still two kilometers away.

Squadron leader Shida Kazuki obeyed the battalion commander's order and asked the entire squadron of Japanese soldiers to lie on the ground and establish a defense line on the spot.

As a grenadier, Ken Kashii squatted on the spot and saw that the tanks of the national army had already rushed within the dry rice.

The gun barrel on the tank was also firing continuously.

Before the defense line of Tanaka Hyuga's brigade was established, it was heavily bombarded by artillery fire.

"Shoot!" Although the entire brigade's defense line has not yet been established, many Japanese soldiers are still looking for favorable terrain.

Captain Tanaka Hinata has given the firing order.

It had to do this: the National Army tanks came too fast!

It's really too fast.

It was so close that its team rushed in front of it before they could find a favorable position.

The machine guns and tank guns on the tanks were all firing.

After hearing the commander's order, Ken Kashii quickly spread the grenades he carried on the ground.

Ready to launch!

In just a short while, the tank had already rushed within 500 meters.

This time, there was not only the roar of artillery, but also bullets from machine guns whizzing past my ears.

Staff Sergeant Yuuto Yamamoto is the heavy machine gunner. He and several deputies have not yet set up the heavy machine gun at this time.

The machine guns on the overcoming tanks fired, killing two Japanese soldiers who were installing the machine guns.

Squadron Leader Ikki Shida looked at the tanks that had rushed to the front, and only then did he notice: the tanks were followed by cavalry.

What kind of combination is this?

Squadron Leader Ikki Shida had heard of infantry-tank collaboration, but never heard of cavalry-tank collaboration.

Captain Tanaka Hinata also noticed this and found that the cavalry following the tank was not charging very fast.

But in just three minutes, they all rushed into the defense line of Shida Ikki's squadron.

This is said to be a line of defense, but rather a wall of flesh formed by the Japanese temporarily crawling on the ground.

This wall of flesh had long been paralyzed by machine gun and machine gun fire.

When the tanks rushed forward, the cavalry brigade also rushed in.

Captain Su Jingyi rushed out from behind the tank, and with a wave of his saber, heads were rolling!

The tanks leading the way did not stop at all. After they broke through Tanaka Hyuga's brigade, they fired machine guns and bombarded them with machine guns all the way.

After piercing Tanaka Hyuga's brigade, they just walked away and continued to move forward.

Behind these tanks, there were also cavalry, and there were less than a hundred cavalry left in the position of Tanaka Hyuga's brigade.

However, these one hundred cavalrymen were galloping in the middle of Tanaka Hyuga's regiment, which had been severely damaged, making it impossible for these Japanese soldiers to organize themselves.

Squadron Leader Ikki Shida had just raised his command sword, but before he could speak, he was cut off from the back of his neck.

Company Commander Gao Sheng loudly ordered: "Kill them and scatter them!"

"yes!"

It's actually not difficult to kill the Japs. Now in Tanaka's brigade, all the Japs have been killed and are trembling.

It's just that some Japanese soldiers still look at their commanders: group captain, squadron leader, squad leader, squad leader, etc.

As long as these commanders are killed, all the Japs will immediately become a piece of loose sand.

Captain Tanaka Hinata was cut in two by Gao Yang.

Takeru Kashii was killed by a machine gun before he could hit even one of his grenades.

Before Harada Yosei's heavy machine gun was assembled, the tank had already rolled over.

It was so frightened that it ran away, but luckily survived the machine gun fire, and then encountered the cavalry who charged back and forth to kill it.

This time it couldn't run away anymore.

His knees went weak and he fell to his knees!

Most of the commanders in Tanaka Hyuga's brigade were hacked to death, and the remaining Japs were already panicking.

Now I see one Japanese prisoner surrendering, and all the other Japanese soldiers follow suit.

The battle here in Tanaka Hyuga's brigade started and ended quickly. The entire battle took less than ten minutes and ended with half of them killed and half captured.

Company Commander Gao directed the Japanese to gather all the weapons on the battlefield and then began to dig holes.

While digging the hole, Harada Yosei murmured in his heart: How familiar this scene is!
