    The cavalry and infantry are brought into attack distance because the cavalry has relatively strong mobility. Even if the opponent has an ambush, the cavalry has a large target, but once it is ambushed, it can use the mobility of the war horse to retreat quickly, but it relies on two legs to initiate  The charging infantry cannot do this. Their firepower is so dense that if their actions are slightly delayed, the losses suffered by the attacking troops will be huge.

    If Tao Laizhao's railway guard force is wiped out at once, I am afraid that Brigadier Masao Arima who is currently in charge of Dehui will not forgive himself, not only for the sake of the current war situation, but also for the future future.  , the former Army Captain Miura also had to be cautious.

    After all, I can't compare with that Seto staff officer. He is a dignified senior combat staff officer of the regular division of the Kwantung Army. He is a graduate of Army University and an active military officer. How can I, a retired army captain who has now become a police chief, compare with him?  , it is better to be more cautious.

    What happened next confirmed his worries. Just when the cavalry rushed three hundred meters away from the Anti-Union position, the Anti-Union position that had been silent just now suddenly spurted out dense tongues of fire, especially the two wings that were the focus of the cavalry attack.  , its crossfire formed a dense fire net.

    The Puppet Manchukuo cavalry squadron, who thought that the resistance in front of them had been almost exhausted by artillery in the previous battle, was defeated in large numbers. When the cavalry was fooled and wanted to turn around, they found that it was too late. The opponent's  Sixty shells and light artillery were accurately falling behind and around them one after another, separating them from the following infantry.

    Assaulting forward, facing a fire net composed of several machine guns, it was obviously an act of seeking death. How fast the opponent's machine gun fired, not to mention the Taisho 11-type light machine gun equipped by the Kwantung Army was no match, even the 92  In addition to having a slightly longer range, the heavy machine gun is also far behind in the rate of fire. There is also the light machine gun that has an extremely fast rate of fire within four hundred meters, and the kind that can kill people and horses as long as it hits.  A terrifying weapon that split into two pieces together.

    Facing the fire net composed of these machine guns, even if the distance is only three hundred meters, although he is a cavalry with extremely strong maneuverability, facing the fire net composed of a large number of machine gun firepower, even if the distance is only three hundred meters, it is still difficult.  It is enough to become an insurmountable chasm for them.

    However, although the cavalry squadron leader is a retired Japanese cavalry second lieutenant, perhaps because he has not retired for a long time and the bushido spirit in his bones has not been lost, he may all be shot dead at a distance of three hundred meters as he advances.  If you retreat, you will face the looting of artillery fire, and it is almost impossible to escape unscathed.

    Looking at the dense fire net in front of him, the former cavalry second lieutenant gritted his teeth, raised the Japanese standard cavalry saber in his hand, and led his cavalry forward to launch a desperate attack. With no way to retreat to the starting position, he  We can only fight hard. As long as we can rush into the Anti-Union position, we still have a chance to survive.

    It's just that this former second lieutenant's idea was good, but there was no possibility of success for him. Just when the former second lieutenant of cavalry took the lead and tried to break through the anti-alliance position in front of him, he heard that he had participated in the Battle of Nomenhan and was very surprised.  After the familiar crisp sound of gunfire, a 7.62mm fully loaded bullet accurately hit his chest, which was not broad, dashing his last hope.

    Before this guy fell off his horse, he looked at the front of the anti-alliance position that was less than fifty meters away and was spitting fire in all directions. His last thought was: "Baga, this was not shot by a machine gun, it was shot by the Russians."  Mosin-Nagant rifles, there turned out to be their snipers here.¡±

    His death not only caused the cavalry squadron to lose its commander directly, but also caused his men to lose their last bit of confidence in the face of the dense fire net.  The backbone cavalry squadron made the same mistake as their colleagues in Xinyuan.

    Seeing the squadron leader being knocked off his horse with a precise shot, and looking at the surrounding colleagues who were knocked down one by one in the face of intensive machine gun fire and the dead horses everywhere, the last line of defense in the hearts of the remaining people completely collapsed at this time.  Ignoring the mortar shells that fell from time to time behind them, these people turned their horses around and ran away.

    It's just that it's easy to come, but it's hard to escape. The Anti-Japanese Alliance behind them will miss such a good opportunity to add insult to injury. The squad machine gun is out of reach, as well as general-purpose machine guns and 12mm large-caliber machine guns, as well as recoilless rifles and  Sixty-zero mortars, these long-range weapons give full play to the opportunity to beat down a drowned dog.

    Although pursuit is not allowed according to the order of the regiment commander, it does not mean that the weapons in hand cannot be used for fire pursuit. When the remaining cavalry squadron of the Puppet Manchukuo Railway Guard Force returned to the starting point, although it could not be said that it was fully equipped, it turned out that  Although there were more than a hundred cavalry, there were only two or three kittens left.

      The cavalry who were ambushed here suffered heavy losses. After returning to the starting position, less than ten of the more than a hundred cavalry were left. Over there, Major Keiji Seto, who felt that he had been humiliated in front of his own men because of his mistake, ignored himself.  Before the cavalry could completely retreat, they once again ordered Taolai Zhaonei's artillery to fire in retaliation.

    No longer caring about preserving his strength, he pressed down all the remaining squadrons in Tao Laizhao, except for one small squadron. This time, he was willing to risk everything, and wanted to attack the group in front of him that was still resisting in one go.  , and also led nearly a squadron of cavalry to annihilate the anti-alliance forces.

    It's just that this time the artillery fire preparation time was much shorter, and the density of firepower was much smaller. It even lasted less than two minutes. All the artillery fire was muted. It had been extremely flamboyant before and had always only fought against the anti-Union forces in person.  The Japanese artillery, which was particular about firepower, changed its previous behavior. It was not that Major Seto Keiji was determined to fight a head-on samurai showdown with the Anti-Japanese Alliance.

    It was because at this time, Taoraizonai's original artillery shells, which could be used for two days according to Japanese combat standards, had been squandered by him and basically consumed the embers. After only a few dozen shells were fired, Tauraizonai no longer had a single shell.  All the Japanese artillery closed their mouths.

    Although there is no artillery cover, Major Seto Keiji, who has jumped over the wall in a hurry, does not care whether the strong attack will cause too many casualties, let alone what the consequences will be after all the trump cards are played. Now in  There was only one thing in his mind, and that was to completely eliminate the resistance alliance in front of him.

    Otherwise, the news that he had used one cavalry squadron, two infantry squadrons of the railway police force, and one semi-regular Kwantung Army squadron to shoot out all the artillery shells and suffered heavy casualties but failed to eliminate a reinforced company of the Anti-Japanese Alliance,  Where will he put his face in the future? Will the division commander still trust him? And once he loses the trust of his superiors, what future will he have in the army?

    It was just that Major Seto Keiji, who jumped over the wall in a hurry, did not expect that his last thirty or so shells would cause much greater casualties to his opponent than he imagined. The general machine guns and general machine guns that were pursuing the retreating cavalry with firepower  Large-caliber machine guns, as well as 60 mortars and recoilless rifles, suffered heavy losses under his sudden bombardment.

    There are only two squad machine guns left. The general-purpose machine gun and the 12mm large-caliber machine gun, as well as the recoilless rifles, are all lost. There are only two 60 guns left, but the ammunition they carry has been used up. In addition,  The previous battle losses, at this time on the Anti-Alliance position, all the troops on the front and flanks combined were less than two platoons.

    In other words, in the subsequent battles, He Fangren could only use less than two platoons and no heavy weapons to fight against the mad Major Keiji Seto, a complete infantry squadron, and two puppets.  Nearly half of the Manchurian Railway Guard Squadron attacked.

    Seeing the Japanese and puppet troops rushing up again, this time with much greater attack power than before, He Fangren was not timid. After smashing all the weapons that were no longer in use, He Fangren pressed the pistol on his body and inserted the bullet into it.  On his belt, he held the automatic rifle left behind by the guard who died to protect him under gunfire. He placed the spare magazine and a submachine gun that had no owner within easy reach beside the crater that he used as a bunker.  position.

    He Fangren, who was ready for the final battle, had no expression on his face. No one knew what he was thinking. All his subordinates knew was that his regiment leader once again rejected the stone that had been taken from the east of Tao Laizhao.  The proposal to mobilize troops from Rengou and Qiandaqingshan to reinforce Tao Laizhao's front line was only to order those troops to seize the time to build fortifications immediately, and then cut off the radio contact.

    As for why he rejected the suggestion of mobilizing reinforcements, others thought that his regiment commander was too proud, but the real reason was that only He Fangren himself understood that the Kwantung Army was not a fool. Tao Laizhao's place was about to turn upside down, and Tao Laizhao was only separated by Germany across the river.  How could the Japanese troops in Hui and Nong'an not know this?

    The Sancha River is lost, and if Tao Laizhao is lost again, the northern section of the Zhongchang Railway, the main artery of the Japanese army north of Xinjing, will be completely paralyzed. Most of the supplies of the 28th Division will be completely cut off. The most critical thing is  What is important is that once Tao Laizhao is lost, the Anti-Japanese Alliance will establish a solid advance base north of the Songhua River.

    As long as Tao Laizhao holds the Resistance Alliance in his hands, he can cross the Yangtze River southward at any time and attack Nong'an and Dehui if he wants. Dehui and Nong'an are the barriers to the north of Xinjing. If these two places are lost again, the entire Xinjing will be directly at the mercy of the Resistance Alliance.  Under such circumstances, it would be strange for the Japanese troops in Jiangnan not to fight back desperately and recapture Tao Laizhao.

    At this time, Daqingshan and Shirengou mobilized reinforcements from the past. Although they can reduce the pressure, they are further south than Tao Laizhao. As Tao Laizhao's defensive outpost to the south, if Dehui and Nong'anWhen the army crosses the river and goes north, it will be the first target of the attack: Qian Daqingshan, as well as Shirengou, which is a key support point behind him.

    Once the former Daqingshan and Shirengou areas are abandoned, it will be difficult to hold on to Tao Laizhao. In other words, abandoning these two areas will cause extremely heavy losses and consequences for the next defensive battle.  Huge, without Qian Daqingshan in the east and Majiatun in the west as a support point, it would be difficult for Tao Laizhao to hold on for a long time, so He Fangren would rather have his entire army destroyed now than give up. These two will play a key role in the next battle.  support point.
