Chapter 2168: A Surprise Attack

Qian Chuan'er said that everyone should gather together, so could they really gather together?

Zhao Zilong's cavalry company and Shang Zhen's battalion also had about 20 horsemen, and they were walking south in the field.

The Japanese and puppet troops naturally gathered together, and the number of people was getting larger and larger. It was unknown how many infantrymen there were, but the cavalry had gathered more than 100 horses and followed far behind.

"What are the little devils doing? Why don't they dare to chase us?" Hu Jiucheng, a member of Shang Zhen's battalion, asked.

"They are afraid of being beaten, so they are gathering together, right?" Wang Xiaodan answered.

The two had a very simple conversation, and they didn't say anything after they finished talking, but they attracted the admiration of the surrounding Eighth Route Army soldiers.

At least after Zhao Zilong's cavalry battalion came here, Shang Zhen's battalion was the main force to fight the devils. It was a bit exaggerated to say that the Japanese cavalry was scared, but at least it proved that the Japanese cavalry was afraid of Shang Zhen's battalion!

What if it was the usual situation, the Japanese army would not dare to chase the Chinese army when the troops were equal? ​​Just kidding!

"The Japanese devils are like vicious dogs. They dare not move forward even if they are hit by too many bricks." Then someone said with a smile on his horse while riding forward.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in Shang Zhenying looked over.

The man was in his early thirties. It was said that he was the instructor of Zhao Zilong's company, called "Shi Heng".

Shang Zhenying had long known about the configuration of the officers of the Eighth Route Army. The instructor was in charge of political work, but he was called "Shi Heng", which was really impressive.

"Instructor Shi speaks better than the scholar in our camp. He speaks in a down-to-earth way and we can all understand him." Qian Chuaner praised with a smile.

When Qian Chuaner said this, everyone in their camp laughed immediately. The scholar in their camp that Qian Chuaner was talking about must be the somewhat pedantic Chen Hanwen.

Shi Heng also laughed, and at this time, these cavalrymen rode up a high ground.

However, no one laughed when they reached the high ground. The reason was that there were soldiers lying on the high ground. The machine guns and rifles were set up. They were the main force of Shang Zhenying, more than 130 people, and they were all here. The leader was Chu Tian.

This was planned after Shang Zhenying and Zhao Zilong discussed it. It was not surprising that these people were on the high ground.

"Cavalry, move forward quickly and don't let the devils behind you watch. Wang You, your platoon is responsible for watching the war horses. Everyone, get off the horses quickly." Zhao Zilong ordered.

All the horsemen really drove their horses forward and then got off the horses. Except for one platoon watching the war horses, the rest of them all dispersed on the high ground with rifles.

"Everyone, don't show your heads. Load the bullets and listen to my orders!" Chu Tian shouted.

So after the sound of the bolts being pulled, the whole high ground was silent, but the war horses behind would occasionally snort.

Zhao Zilong put a rifle against the door, and he also showed his head to direct Chu Tian, ​​who was hiding behind a bush and camouflaged.

He saw Qian Chuan'er lying there with a grin on his face, as if he wanted to laugh but couldn't, so he asked in a low voice: "What are you laughing at?"

"I'm just laughing at the little Japanese who were scared by us and thought they would be fine if they hid far away before their large army arrived, but this time they are in trouble!" Qian Chuan'er said in a low voice.

Zhao Zilong nodded and stopped asking.

He now found that he had a good temper with these Northeast soldiers in Shang Zhenying.

Because they fought in an unconventional way, it was a bit far-fetched to say that they were imaginative, but they were really smart when fighting against the enemy!

After waiting for a while, the officers and soldiers ambushed on the high ground heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the front.

Although the cavalrymen did not gallop in front just now, the horses were trotting after all, and the Japanese cavalry did not want to lose them, so they also ran at the same speed. Although the sound of the horses' hooves was not loud, the Japanese cavalry had more than one horse after all!

"Two hundred meters!" Chu Tian, ​​who had been observing the enemy situation, spoke at this time.

No one except him showed up, so he reported the distance between the Japanese cavalry and them, which was to prepare them mentally.

"If I say start fighting, everyone will fight!

Be sure to see whether the remaining little devils will rush forward or run back after we fire our guns.

If they rush forward, we will continue to beat them, and if they run away, we will also retreat!" Chu Tian raised his voice again this time.

When the combatants heard what Chu Tian said, they all knew what to do, and they were ready to show up and shoot.

The comparison of the enemy's and our forces is that the Japanese army has more than 100 cavalrymen, and they have more than 200 combatants, including the dismounted Zhao Zilong Company.

They couldn't put the Japanese cavalry in a very close place to fight, because if they did that, if the Japanese cavalry were fearless and accelerated their horses, they would rush to the high ground, and they would suffer casualties.

They couldn't fight the Japanese far away from them either, because the killing rate would not be guaranteed.

No mistake, one sentence, one content, one 6, one book, one bar!

Sure enough, after just a moment, Chu Tian shouted loudly: "Fight!"

So, with his order, the 200 or so Chinese officers and soldiers who were lined up in a line on the high ground suddenly appeared, and their rifles and light machine guns were all pointed at the Japanese cavalry who were only 150 to 160 meters away from them!

This situation startled the Japanese soldiers who followed them, and because the Chinese officers and soldiers were hiding on the high ground, they had to climb forward to have a complete view, which gave the Japanese soldiers who were approaching below some time to react.

A Japanese officer shouted and pointed his saber at this high ground.

But the Chinese officers and soldiers only gave the Japanese soldiers time to react.

At the moment when the Japanese army began to spur their horses, the gunfire on the high ground rang out densely, and the "Tu Tu Tu" short bursts of light machine guns and the "Pa" and "Pa" of rifle shooting mixed together, and the Japanese soldiers fell off their horses like dumplings!

It would be the most correct choice for the Japanese commander to command the Japanese army to charge forward when he saw that he was suddenly ambushed.

But they did not expect that there were more than 200 Chinese officers and soldiers ambushed on this inconspicuous high ground. It was only the first wave of shooting, and the Japanese cavalry had already fallen off their horses and became a mess!

Some Japanese cavalrymen in front were shot, but the Japanese cavalrymen behind had already charged.

It was only when the Japanese cavalrymen charged that they noticed that their companions in front, on the left and on the right kept falling off their horses or falling to the ground with their horses. They knew that they were ambushed. Even the commander who had just shouted to attack was knocked off his horse.

So why charge? The surviving Japanese cavalrymen turned their horses and ran to the flanks first and then let their horses charge into the fields!

The Eighth Route Army's Shang Zhenying fired a few more shots at the Japanese soldiers, and then Chu Tian ordered to retreat quickly. Zhao Zilong looked at the scene of people and horses falling in front of him, and couldn't help but say with heartache: "What a pity for so many spoils of war!"

Aren't they a lot of spoils of war? Regardless of whether they were dead or alive, the Japanese cavalrymen who caught up with them were knocked down by their "backstab".

If they just wanted to turn those guns and ammunition into trophies, they would have to use a lot of effort. You know, some of the Japanese soldiers just fell off their horses. If they dared to rush up now, the remaining Japanese soldiers would definitely fight with them.

But the enemy was strong and we were weak, so they really couldn't afford to fight. Japanese infantry had already appeared in the distance.
