Chapter 235: Riding Battle! (Subscribe! Monthly pass!)
When at least 50 submachine guns were leveled in a row more than 100 meters away, a torrent of hot metal was sprayed from the muzzle that made the eyes scorch.
Fujihara, who quickly hid his body under the horse's belly, finally understood.
He understood the source of his previous heart palpitations. If something went wrong, he would be a monster. No matter how stupid the Chinese people are, they would not slow down their horses and wait to be slaughtered. They would control their horses' speed at medium to low speed just to ensure their safety. The muzzle of the gun can be held flat and stable.
That is more than fifty German flower traps, the most terrifying individual continuous-fire firearm on the Chinese battlefield.
In the northern battlefield, the Imperial Army had already suffered losses from this weapon.
However, the Chinese do not have the ability to equip all of them with such automatic firearms. Only the most elite Chinese troops have them.
But the cavalry has this kind of weapon, and it is organized on a large scale, but it is the first time on the battlefield.
Yes, although the submachine gun has fierce and sharp firepower, its range is too short, only a hundred meters away. For a cavalry duel, the opponent with the highest horse speed can charge at full speed with just one breath.
Therefore, very few cavalry are equipped with submachine guns, and most of them are mounted rifles with a longer range. This can ensure that the saber duel will begin after shooting.
However, Tang Dao took a different approach. After escorting the artillery into the city with a cavalry company, he went to Lieutenant General Wu and asked him to take out at least half of the submachine guns equipped by the guard battalion directly under the general's headquarters for him to deploy.
Then, Tang Dao, who already had a brilliant record of destroying three gunboats and 400 Japanese infantry, found Gong Shaoxun with a 55 submachine gun, and directly threw the single-shot bolt-type lance aside.
Deputy Director Tang's idea was so unreasonable. When Gong Shaoxun and the two cavalry company commanders were still a little confused, the two cavalrymen ran back from the river, followed by a large number of Japanese cavalry.
The combat power of three cavalry companies is about the same as that of a Japanese cavalry squadron. There is no reason to run. If you can't run, you can only do it. The submachine gun sent by Deputy Director Tang is the only way to reduce your own casualties and still give unsuspecting people. The opponent brings enough weapons to hit.
Although Gong Shaoxun had never done this before, he could only bite the bullet and accompany Deputy Director Tang and the Japanese cavalry.
What would it look like if more than fifty submachine guns fired at the same time?
From the perspective of the young cavalryman following behind, he could only see the smoke rising when the submachine gun fired, covering the backs of his comrades.
That is a concentrated fire of more than hundreds of bullets per second.
MP28 has a long magazine with 32 rounds of bullets. Tang Dao's order is to fire empty bullets in the shortest possible time, abandon the gun, draw the saber, and fight the enemy.
In almost four seconds, the Chinese cavalrymen who turned their horses' heads and swept towards the two wings emptied their submachine guns. They dropped their guns regardless, drew their sabers, clamped their legs around the horses' belly, and waited to greet them. The fierce collision and cold sword flash of the Japanese cavalry rushing in.
The Japanese cavalry 120 meters away were knocked upside down by the sudden torrent of metal.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether they hide or not. Whether they can survive depends on God.
The Chinese cavalry moving on horseback had no intention of aiming at all. They held their submachine guns flat and squeezed the trigger, causing a sudden burst.
The sixteen thousand bullets that were fired out were not for shooting people, but just for hitting horses.
9mm caliber Luger bullets will leave a **** hole when hitting a horse. Even a horse is hit by multiple bullets. Even a tall and strong Japanese horse cannot withstand such a blow.
I don't know how many war horses rushed tens of meters due to inertia and fell down with a miserable scream after being completely exhausted. I don't know how many war horses directly smashed to the ground with their cavalry on the spot, and then hit their companions behind them who had no time to dodge. tripped.
The Japanese cavalry formation, which was originally as fierce as a stormy sea, was instantly shattered.
However, a submachine gun that relies on probability to kill people and horses is not omnipotent. If there is a probability of killing someone, there is a probability that someone will survive.
The smoke and dust raised by the horseshoes shrouded the figures of the Japanese cavalry until the first, second, and third Japanese soldiers held their sabers high and ran wildly into the Chinese cavalry array that was still moving toward the flanks.
'Dang! clang! ' The sound of metal friction at the moment when the swords and lights came into contact made people have the urge to cover their ears.
The Japanese cavalry rushing over at high speed had the advantage of speed, and the tall Japanese horses had a natural advantage in weight. Once they collided with the Chinese cavalry, the Chinese horses were often violently knocked away, and the cavalry and the horses fell down. .
Three rows of cavalry were completely killed by the Japanese cavalry. The war horses led the Japanese cavalry at high speed for 70 to 80 meters before slowly slowing down and turning their horses' heads to face the Chinese cavalry who also turned their horses' heads. In the moment of close combat, the Chinese cavalry fell at least twenty, while the Japanese only fell at most seven or eight. Judging from the battle loss ratio between the two sides, the Japanese cavalry had the advantage.
However, as the commander, Fujiwara was not happy at all. Looking at the less than thirty cavalrymen pattering on the left and right, he felt extremely regretful in his eyes.
An entire cavalry squadron, including 98 men, lost more than two-thirds after a charge.
Full half of the people did not fall by the Chinese swords, but died by the Chinese guns. The reason was that they were too proud.
His pride is not that he underestimated the Chinese people, but that he made a very fatal mistake and overestimated himself.
Since this group of Chinese dared to leave the city to ambush three gunboats with terrifying naval guns, how could they be afraid of his cavalry squadron?
Perhaps they never thought about escaping from the beginning. In fact, they already knew that the imperial cavalry would be scouting along the river bank, and they had already set up a formation to wait for the arrival of themselves and others.
A large number of terrifying submachine guns are the gifts they have prepared, which are enough to make up for their shortcomings in horses and mounted combat.
He was taking things for granted after all.
Unfortunately, no matter how much he regrets, it is useless. What he has to do now is to lead the last remaining group of people to safeguard the honor of the Imperial Army Cavalry, kill through the enemy's formation again, and leave indelible scars on the opponent.
Even though the opponent's strength is more than three times his.
Even if the distance between the two sides is less than 100 meters, their horse speed will be on the same starting line.
The opponent's submachine gun should have fired empty bullets. In cavalry combat, the great Imperial cavalry will not be afraid of any opponent.
The moment Fujihara fell into self-blame and mustered up the courage to slowly point his saber forward, the Chinese cavalry were also secretly shocked.
They had dealt with the Japanese army on the battlefield in North China, and had also fought with the Japanese cavalry on a small scale, but the combat effectiveness of the Japanese cavalry in front of them still exceeded their imagination.
Under the concentrated fire of submachine guns, only a small half of the remaining cavalry were able to escape the barrage. However, these more than 40 cavalrymen caused more than 20 casualties to the two cavalry companies on their side. If they killed all the troops, It's really hard to imagine what kind of damage it will cause if it comes over.
The young cavalryman had no time to be frightened. He was busy tying a bandage on the wound of the pale squad leader beside him.
The veteran's left arm was broken at the elbow. It was the work of a Japanese officer. If the veteran hadn't reacted quickly enough, he rode over and blocked the Japanese officer's sharp saber with his left arm, I'm afraid it would have fallen to the ground. Half of an arm, but the head of a young cavalryman.
"Brother, I'm sorry, I'm useless." The young cavalry choked and wrapped a bandage around the veteran's horrific wound.
He tried to block the bleeding wound, but it was obviously in vain.
The broken arm was bleeding almost like a fountain. In maybe a few minutes, the veteran would fall into a coma and die due to excessive bleeding.
The old soldier's face turned pale in pain and he was sweating profusely, but he grinned with difficulty, "Don't cry, kid, the battle is not over yet! When the battle is over, it won't be too late for you to cry after I die. Don't worry, hurry up and give it to me." Tie it up."
Tang Dao also experienced a mounted battle for the first time. For the first time, China's strongest soldier felt the horror of blades crossing at high speed.
Because he was at the front of the Chinese cavalry formation, at least two Japanese cavalry were charging towards him.
Fortunately, Tang Dao, who has completely controlled his body, has a neurological reaction far beyond that of ordinary people. In this kind of combat that he is not familiar with and is not good at, he still dodges the opponent's sword and successfully sends the saber into the opponent's waist and abdomen.
However, for the first time in this era, he missed. The huge momentum forced him to give up his sword to avoid being dismounted by the horse passing by at high speed. As a result, he was unable to kill the second Japanese soldier and could only watch helplessly. Watching the Japanese soldier break into the formation, chop down a comrade on the cavalry with his sword, and finally break out of the formation.
It seems that I am still more suitable as an infantryman!
Tang Dao took out the rifle from the rifle pouch with a bit of melancholy, inserted the bayonet on his waist into the bayonet, and then...
“Shoot!”
