He didn't expect that the artillery of the security regiment was so fierce, and the combat effectiveness of the 37th brigade was not weak. As a result, they were completely wiped out in less than two hours.
Fujita Taro stopped in the camp for a moment with a solemn expression, and then he asked his subordinates to bury the Japanese officers and soldiers who died in battle.
After half an hour, the 3rd Division established the headquarters, and Fujita Taro called the officers to the headquarters for a meeting.
……
Fifteen kilometers away from Nanguan County, a cloud of dust rose from the road, and the sound of driving horses and hooves resounded one after another.
"Drive, drive, drive!!!"
The 3rd Wing of the Devil Cavalry, as the leading reconnaissance unit, rushed to the outside of Nanguan County on horseback.
The number of cavalry regiments and infantry regiments is different. Even if the 3rd cavalry regiment is a Class A elite cavalry regiment, the number is only about 2000.
And the general B-type cavalry regiment has a pitifully small number of people, only about 1000 people.
Chapter 337 Just in time!
, the fastest update to the latest chapter with a system to fight devils!
The Devil's 3rd Cavalry Regiment is one of the more elite cavalry units in the Japanese cavalry.
The Devil Cavalry Wing is not equipped with heavy firepower weapons and equipment. Even the elite cavalry is only equipped with some light machine guns, as well as light grenades and mortars.
Although the firepower of the devil cavalry's weapons is not very powerful, the fighting power displayed by the enemy must not be underestimated.
The devil's cavalry has more flexible combat maneuverability in the mountainous environment, and is good at reconnaissance and running raids. Once they charge and deploy on the battlefield, the devil's cavalry is even an infantry killer.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!"
The devil cavalry unit did not advance rashly, and all the cavalry stopped and stood by.
A ghost commander was riding on horseback, holding a telescope in his hand to observe, and his cold face showed a bit of ferocity.
This devil commander is Nobuzawa Kondo, the commander of the 3rd Cavalry Regiment of the Japanese Army.
Kondo Nobuzawa has always been arrogant and arrogant, and this guy is very cruel, a militant who advocates bloody killings.
Since the invasion of China, Kondo Nobuzawa, a bastard, has ordered the massacre of many Chinese civilians. His hands are stained with the blood of innocent people, and he is a perfect executioner.
A ghost Shao Zuo who was riding a horse next to him said slowly, "Your Excellency, Captain, Nanguan County is ahead, and the 53rd Army of the Sichuan Army and the security regiment are guarding the city."
Kondo Nobuzawa put down the binoculars and said disdainfully: "A small Nanguan County, the 37th Brigade and the 53rd Wing have not conquered it. Is the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army really that strong?"
Kondo Nobuzawa asked sarcastically, he doesn't think the Chinese army has such a strong combat effectiveness.
In the past, wherever the cavalry of the Japanese Empire went, the so-called elite of the Central Army did not flee in the end.
"If it wasn't for the head of the division not to allow our cavalry to take the initiative to attack, otherwise, I really want to compete with the Chinese defenders on the opposite side and let the Chinese army know how powerful our imperial cavalry is!" Kondo Nobuzawa said arrogantly and confidently these words.
Subsequently, Kondo Nobuzawa ordered the cavalry to dismount and rest in an open area under the col.
……
Ten minutes ago, the scouts at the front of the security regiment learned of the arrival of cavalrymen from the Devil's 3rd Regiment.
At this moment, Li Hong was washing up, when suddenly, a second lieutenant from the reconnaissance platoon rushed into the headquarters of the security regiment.
"Report to the regiment, a large number of devil cavalry have been found outside the city!"
Li Hong didn't seem to care much when he heard the news that the devil cavalry was coming.
There are so many troops guarding the front line, and the terrain outside the city is not conducive to a large number of cavalry to attack.
If the devil cavalry dared to charge and provoke, they could only become living targets for the frontline troops.
Li Hong quickly wiped his face with a towel, and asked, "How many devil cavalry are there?"
The second lieutenant of the reconnaissance platoon replied loudly: "Reporting to the regiment, outside the city is the 4th Cavalry Brigade of the Japanese Army, the 3rd Cavalry Regiment under its jurisdiction!"
"Little Devil's 3rd Cavalry Regiment?" Li Hong asked the second lieutenant with interest, and then said, "Is this Devil Cavalry Regiment the one that occupied Chenguan Town last month and slaughtered more than 1000 soldiers and civilians?" force? "
The second lieutenant of the reconnaissance platoon replied: "Yes, regiment, the executioner who massacred more than 1000 soldiers and civilians in Chenguan Town is this devil cavalry regiment."
"Besides the Devil's 3rd Cavalry Regiment, are there any other devil troops outside the city?"
"No, the scouts only found the Japanese 3rd Cavalry Regiment for the time being."
"Okay, great, this group of inhumane bastards will come one day, and I will destroy them today!"
Li Hong said angrily. Then, he carefully studied the topographical map around Nanguan County for a while, and soon thought of a way to lure the enemy to go deep and annihilate the devil cavalry.
It is not so easy to completely wipe out a devil's cavalry on the battlefield, because the cavalry is flexible in combat and can fight through narrow mountain terrain.
Even if the security team had strong firepower and concentrated artillery to bombard the Devil Cavalry, but as soon as the artillery came, the Devil Cavalry would immediately react and flee. It was absolutely impossible to completely wipe out the Devil Cavalry.
Of course, it is not impossible to completely kill the 3rd Cavalry Wing.
There is a mountain road on Hutou Mountain, five kilometers outside the North City, and there are highlands on both sides of the mountain road.
Once the devil cavalry entered the mountain road, their maneuverability would be restricted. It was undoubtedly a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, and none of the enemies could escape.
Soon, Li Hong summoned Ma Shangfeng, the commander of the cavalry battalion, and Hu Tudan, the battalion commander.
"Tuan Zao, Tuan Zao!!"
Ma Shangfeng and Hu Tudan hurried to the headquarters.
To make a long story short, Li Hong conducted operations on the map to delineate the ambush points, and then told the two of them the battle plan one by one.
"Ma Battalion Commander, order your cavalry battalion to be on standby, and you and I will lead the cavalry to attack the Devil's 3rd Cavalry Regiment later."
"Bald, take your first battalion immediately, quietly leave the city from the north gate, and quickly go around to the high ground near Hutou Mountain, five kilometers outside the city, to set up an ambush..."
"Yes, Tuanzao, I understand!"
Ma Shangfeng and Hu Tudan nodded, and immediately left the headquarters with combat orders.
Li Hong's battle plan to lure the enemy deep and annihilate the devil's cavalry is certainly good, but the little devil is not a fool, so he is not so easy to be fooled.
Although the little devil won't fall into the trap obediently, Li Hong has always had a lot of scheming tricks, and some of them have ways to "trick" the enemy into falling into the trap.
Less than 10 minutes later, Hu Tudan led a battalion and quietly left from the north gate of the city, heading towards Hutou Mountain.
The cavalry battalion has also been fully assembled.
Li Hong was carrying a killing knife on his back, and he was wearing a stab-proof tactical vest.
