Seeing Xu Rui's frown, Xiao Yanyue asked: "Battle Commander Xu, are you worried about the safety of the main force of the battalion?"
Before Xu Rui could answer, Leng Tiefeng rushed to say: "Aren't you talking nonsense? The main force of the battalion is now out of ammunition and food. It has just experienced a long-distance forced march. The entire battalion officers and soldiers have exceeded their limits in terms of energy and physical strength. At this time, the Japanese only need to send one infantry squadron to give us a drink. [Read the full text]"
Xu Rui glanced at Leng Tiefeng in surprise. Did the veteran take gun medicine today
Leng Tiefeng also realized his gaffe and couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed.
Xiao Yanyue glared at Leng Tiefeng fiercely, thinking that she hadn't even settled the previous debt with you, but she came to rob me again. Don't let me seize the opportunity, otherwise I will definitely make you look good, hum!
Xu Rui asked Xiao Yanyue again: "Captain Xiao, how many people are the Japanese pursuing?"
Xiao Yanyue said: "The Japanese pursuers have at least two infantry squadrons and a cavalry squadron."
"That would be troublesome." The worry on Xu Rui's face became more intense when he heard this. With the current situation of the independent battalion, it would be difficult for an infantry squadron to face the Japanese, let alone two infantry squadrons and a cavalry squadron? However, now we can only hope that Deputy Wan Ying can fulfill his mission and lead the main force of the independent battalion to escape.
Xu Rui didn't know that the main force of the independent battalion was safe at this moment.
Tiegang led the cavalry battalion directly under the 59th Army to suddenly appear on the battlefield, and with lightning speed launched a charge towards the Japanese who were pursuing the independent battalion. Due to the heavy fog, the Japanese machine gun firepower and artillery were basically unable to work, and The mobility and powerful assault power of the cavalry battalion were fully demonstrated.
Facing the cavalry who rushed forward and brandished sharp sabers, the infantry had basically no other choice but to be slaughtered.
But the Japanese were indeed tenacious. Even though they knew they were outmatched, not a single Japanese chose to turn around and run away. Instead, they stubbornly resisted to the end until the entire army was annihilated. After a confrontation that lasted less than ten minutes, the soldiers who pursued the independent battalion The two Japanese squadrons were basically killed by Tiegang's cavalry battalion.
Tie Gang put away his bloody saber and rode back to the front of the Independent Battalion's formation.
Since he had just killed six Japs, Tiegang's body was splashed with a lot of blood. Not only was the smell of blood on his body very strong, but even the blood color in his eyes had not faded.
Therefore, when he spoke, he had a murderous aura.
"You are the independent battalion of the 79th Division, right?" Tiegang reined in his horse lightly, and his horse stopped in front of the independent battalion queue. He first glanced coldly at the officers and soldiers of the independent battalion in front of him, and then looked murderously. Tenteng asked, "I am Tiegang, the commander of the 59th Army Cavalry Battalion. Where is your battalion commander? Is your battalion commander here?"
"I am Wan Zhongshan, the deputy battalion commander of the temporary independent battalion of the 79th Division." Wan Zhongshan took a step forward, blocked Tiegang with his mountain-like body, and said, "Thank you for your help. Our independent battalion will never forget it, and when we have the opportunity in the future, our independent battalion will definitely repay the favor, and it will be a heavy repayment."
"Ha." Tiegang looked up to the sky and laughed, and said disdainfully, "I, Tiegang, do what we do, and our 59th Army does what we do, but we seek peace of mind and never expect others to repay us."
"That's your business." Wan Zhongshan said, "In our independent camp, every favor must be repaid with a meal, and every favor with a drop of water must be repaid."
"A favor must be repaid with a meal, and a favor with a drop of water must be repaid, so we'll just wait." Tiegang only thought that Wan Zhongshan was just talking, so he didn't take it seriously at all. He changed the subject and continued, " Deputy Wan Ying, right? I just asked about your battalion commander, where is your battalion commander Xu Rui?"
Nowadays, the news that Xu Rui openly bumped into Deputy Commander-in-Chief Wan of the Third War Zone and drove away Commissioner Yang who was sent by Deputy Commander-in-Chief Wan to recruit troops has spread throughout the Third War Zone. Xu Rui is already a celebrity. Tiegang has long wanted to meet this legendary talent.
Wan Zhongshan's face immediately darkened, but he didn't say a word.
"What?" Tiegang's expression became solemn and he asked again, "Where is Captain Xu?"
Wan Zhongshan sighed and said: "In order to cover the main force of the battalion, the camp leader personally led the company to act as bait and led the Japanese into the Qixing Lake swamp. There is no news yet."
There is no news from Wan Zhongshan so far, but he is just consoling himself. As a veteran, Wan Zhongshan has enough reasons to believe that most of the brothers in the camp and company have sacrificed their lives for the country. The truth is obvious. There can only be more than a hundred people in the company. , but they faced at least a thousand Japs, how could they be spared
"What? Qixing Lake Swamp Area?" Tiegang's face changed slightly and he added, "That is a famously dangerous area."
Although Tiegang's cavalry battalion was not stationed in Hai'an Town, he happened to have an old relationship with the commander of the 59th Army Independent Regiment, so he heard the commander of the independent regiment mention the Qixing Lake Swamp once, so he knew such a dangerous place, so he knew this dangerous place. According to legend, the Seven Star Lake Swamp was set up by immortals according to the Seven Star Bagua formation. This is of course blind, but it also shows how dangerous it is.
Thinking of the dangers of Qixing Lake Swamp, Tiegang particularly admired Xu Rui, whom he had never met before. As the leader of a battalion, Xu Rui was willing to sacrifice himself for the lives of all the brothers in the battalion. This responsibility alone was enough to deserve him. Tiegang's admiration was even more worthy of Tiegang risking his own life to make such a friend.
At that moment, Tiegang said again: "This matter, it would be fine if we didn't collide with each other, but since Tiegang did hit me, since we were forced to run into each other while riding without camp, we have no reason to sit idly by and ignore it, both in public and private matters." .”
When it was over, Tiegang drew his saber again, raised it and shouted: "The cavalry battalion... assemble!"
The buglers following Tiegang immediately blew the rallying horn. Upon hearing the rallying horn, the officers and soldiers of the cavalry battalion who were cleaning the battlefield threw away the trophies in their hands, quickly got on their horses, and swarmed in front of Tiegang.
Wan Zhongshan immediately realized what Tiegang wanted to do. This guy actually wanted to save Xu Rui!
"Captain Tie, do you want to save our camp?" Wan Zhongshan said solemnly.
"Why, do you think your battalion commander is not worthy of my rescue?" Tie Gang stared at Wan Zhongshan coldly and said, "Or do you want your battalion commander to die so that you can take over as battalion commander?"
"What are you talking about?" Wan Zhongshan said seductively, "But I must tell you that the Japs in Hai'an Town have at least one infantry brigade, and maybe even an infantry regiment!"
"So what?" Tie Gang said coldly, "In my eyes, Tie Gang, no matter how many Japs there are, they are all dead."
"Captain Iron Battalion is brave and brave, and I admire my humble position, but I must remind you again that the Japanese are not made of paper, let alone a straw man who can fly away with just a breath." Wan Zhongshan said coldly.
"Blowing?" Tie Gang said coldly, "Are you bragging?"
"I don't mean that." Wan Zhongshan shook his head and continued, "I just want to tell Commander Tie that our independent battalion appreciates your kindness, but there is really no need for you to go to Qixing Lake Swamp. If our camp If it is auspicious and heavenly, then he will naturally come back alive. If...then if you go, you will only die."
Tiegang's eyes softened a little, and he added: "It seems that you know that your battalion commander is exchanging his life for the lives of all your brothers in the battalion."
Wan Zhongshan said: "Therefore, we should cherish our lives even more."
After a pause, Wan Zhongshan said again: "This is both our camp's order and his wish."
"That's you, your independent battalion!" Tiegang said cheerfully, "But I am Tiegang, I am not a subordinate of your bastard battalion commander, and my cavalry battalion is not some bastard independent battalion either. I What to do, what to do, it’s not his turn to tell me what to do and let me figure it out.”
Before he finished speaking, Tie Gang could not help but whip out a horsewhip.
Wan Zhongshan instinctively ducked to one side.
Tiegang lightly urged the war horse and passed by Wan Zhongshan.
At this time, the officers and soldiers of the cavalry battalion were already fully assembled.
Tie Gang looked at his pocket watch and saw that less than five minutes had passed.
Tiegang was very satisfied with the performance of the cavalry battalion. He was worthy of the soldiers he brought out!
Tiegang Lengjun's eyes slowly swept across the faces of the cavalry battalion soldiers lined up, and he shouted: "Brothers, do you still remember what I said to you the day you first joined the cavalry battalion?"
"Remember!" More than three hundred cavalry soldiers responded like thunder.
"What did I say?" Tiegang yelled again.
"Kill those who deserve to be killed and save those who deserve to be saved!"
"Kill those who deserve to be killed and save those who deserve to be saved!"
"Kill those who deserve to be killed and save those who deserve to be saved!"
More than 300 cavalry officers responded loudly again.
"Kill who?"
"enemy!"
"Save who?"
"People!"
"Very good." Tiegang nodded with satisfaction and shouted at the top of his lungs, "But today, I am going to make an exception and take you to rescue a soldier. You must want to ask, why? Why should I take you with me?" Are you going to rescue this shabby soldier? Let me tell you, it’s because I don’t like him and want to rescue him and beat him up!”
More than three hundred cavalry officers burst out laughing, and they all laughed so hard.
But when Tiegang pulled his horse face, the laughter immediately stopped.
"Everything is there..." Tiegang raised his voice, raised his saber high and shouted, "The target is Qixing Lake Swamp... move forward."
The next moment, more than three hundred cavalry officers howled like wolves, and then surged forward with the flood that broke the embankment. In less than a moment, the surging torrent of cavalry disappeared in the distance. On the horizon, only the mud on the ground and the messy battlefield still show that a cavalry team once appeared here, and a desperate battle broke out with the Japanese devils.
Wan Zhongshan watched Tiegang and the cavalry battalion go away, but when he turned around, he saw more than 400 pairs of eager and fierce eyes.
I don't know when, more than 400 remnants of the Independent Battalion have gathered around Wan Zhongshan, and are making a silent protest to Wan Zhongshan: Go back, we have to fight back and save the camp!
