Chapter 121: Iron Cavalry Crushes and Overwhelms All Four Sides

The offensive operations did not stop. The 7th Squadron joined the support from the center and the right flank. Snipers from the entire army began to provide full support. The battle scene escalated instantly. Machine guns on the battlefield were roaring harshly, shells were flying, and snipers were rolling like ghosts. Every time they raised their guns, the enemy's firepower point would be extinguished. The air was filled with smoke, and the battlefield was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder and smoke. The scene scared the new recruits so much that their legs went weak and they crawled on the ground and vomited.

The 40 scouts two kilometers away were all on horseback. The 10 in front all held pistols in their right hands. These 10 pistols were temporarily collected from several squadrons. They held the reins in their left hands and carried sabers across their horses' backs. The rest of the team all held sabers. The sun in the west just shone on the sabers, and the cold light was chilling. It was a picture:

"The sun and the moon are hidden in the front mountain, and the rivers and streams are controlled by horses.

The cold wind spreads through the golden watchtowers, and the cold light shines on the iron armor."

These 40 reconnaissance cavalrymen are the best riders in the reconnaissance team. They can hold a gun in one hand and a rein in the other, or use both hands to release the reins and attack with all their strength. They are considered relatively qualified cavalrymen.

"Brothers, we train soldiers for a thousand days and use them for only one day. In the past, we were used as infantry and communications soldiers. Today, we must fight for the glory of being cavalry. Young Master Chenyu is watching us. We must fight on our own. Our wives, children and elders are waiting for us at home. We must fight for the future," He Chaowu led the team personally and gave a pre-war mobilization speech.

"Invincible in battle and victorious in every attack", "Invincible in battle and victorious in every attack".

The momentum of the 40 men was like a huge wave rising up, crashing onto the battlefield.

"Advance..." He Chaowu swung his saber forward, and the cavalry team began to move forward at a slower speed.

The cavalry was advancing in neat steps. This was a slightly inclined uphill terrain, and the speed was gradually increasing. "Load the heavy machine guns..." In order to further reduce the pressure on the cavalry team, in the last few minutes, the frontal attacking team pulled out to cover the heavy machine gun bunkers, and bullets began to tear apart the enemy's positions. Now the 7th Squadron and the 1st Squadron were in the front. The 4th Squadron had withdrawn to provide cover. "Charge..." Hu Laosi ordered.

The cavalry team had closed the distance to only 1500 meters. He Chaowu raised his saber and shouted, "Charge..., flatten everything." The blade pierced the air with a "sizzling" sound. The horses' hooves trampled the ground, "trample...trample..." The ground was shaking. The drums of the logistics team roared, and they crushed towards the enemy's position with an overwhelming momentum.

It was said to be late, but it was fast. The war horses were advancing at full speed of more than 50 kilometers per hour, and a distance of 1 kilometer was reached in an instant. The cavalry's destination was to attack the right side along the river. The riverside was a flat area where forty or fifty merchants and wealthy families kidnapped by bandits were settled. Since it was not a place where property was stored, the defense was relatively empty. There was no heavy machine gun, and only one light machine gun for support. In addition, Du's army focused on attacking the left and the middle, and the enemy relaxed its defense on the right side.

The horses were suspended in the air for only 400 meters. The guards immediately gathered from both sides and followed behind the cavalry, "Kill..." 50 meters, "bang... bang..." The cavalry in front fired the bullets from their pistols continuously, "leap..." He Chaowu took the lead and crossed the position, picked up the saber, and chopped down a bandit with a wave of his hand, splashing blood. The horse's hoof stepped on the bandit's belly and jumped over.

Watching the cavalry rushing into the enemy's position, it was like a watermelon being pounded, with red liquid flying in the air. The guards also rushed in, but there was a high ridge between the kidnapped people and the bandit camp, which was at least five or six meters high. Therefore, it was impossible for 40 cavalrymen to capture the enemy's main camp. They could only take advantage of the 3 to 5 minutes when the bandits were not able to react and quickly rescue the people.

The cavalrymen were clearing out the sentries everywhere, and the rest of the people quickly cut the ropes that bound the civilians, and immediately organized them to run to the river and escape from the rifle shooting range along the river.

"Everybody run, run..." Lei Jianqin ran while carrying an old man with injured legs and feet. The guard team was responsible for evacuating the crowd. Liu Heng's 11th Squadron was occupying the stronghold, blocking the attack from the direction of the bandit camp to prevent the other side's counterattack. The 10th Squadron assisted in cleaning up the battlefield. There was no other way. Our team always regarded cleaning up the battlefield as more important than life. If there was no spoils in that battle, then our strength would be greatly damaged after this battle. After several consecutive defeats, we would be eliminated and return to the mountains to make a living as bandits.

Each team was well organized and cleared the battlefield in less than ten minutes. Except for the enemy's indiscriminate shooting at the kidnapped people at the last minute, which resulted in more than 10 civilians injured and several deaths, the rest were rescued. Dozens of rifles were also collected, and the ransom paid to the civilians that had not been moved away in time was estimated to be tens of thousands of dollars.

As the 7th Squadron, which was providing the last blocking and covering, withdrew, the frontal attacking team also began to withdraw from the battlefield. This battle lasted for more than an hour. More than 30 people were killed in the two rounds of attacks, and only 4 people were killed or injured in the cavalry. No less than 80 bandits were wiped out. The cavalry rushed to the right and wiped out more than 50 guarding bandits along the way. Together with the bandits wiped out in small groups in the surrounding areas, a total of more than 180 bandits were wiped out, more than 100 guns were seized, and nearly 10 dollars were seized. It was a fruitful operation.

Leaving the 9th and 11th squadrons in charge of monitoring the bandits' next move, the others began to return to the neighborhood, began to appease the people, and prepared to resume the market.

"Mr. Chenyu, I have something to report to you!" At this time, Jiang Zhong came over to report.

"Captain Jiang, on behalf of our sailor squadron, I'm asking you to join the battle. We have grown gradually since our establishment. In every operation, we serve as transport soldiers. Each of us is an elite Chinese. We are also equipped with guns and can also be used as infantry. My brothers saw that other squadrons were taking action while we were sailing behind, and they were very anxious," Jiang Zhong gave a standard salute and then began to complain.

"My big brother Jiang, I'm really happy to have brothers like you. You are so enthusiastic about joining the war. You are my trump card. Generally, I would not be willing to use you unless it is a critical moment. Many of you brothers have been selected. Since the brothers are so enthusiastic, it is not easy for me to discourage everyone's enthusiasm. You should immediately send a message to Captain Hu Haisheng and ask him to take the sailor squadron, the special service team, and squadrons 1 and 7 to immediately recruit dozens of people from the former Enyang Joint Defense Battalion hiding in the back mountain. They must either surrender or be annihilated. Then, immediately recruit the armed forces from the various forts in the surrounding areas," Du Chenyu ordered immediately.

In fact, I had overlooked the sailor squadron maintaining order in the back during the battle. I didn't expect to let them join the battle. Now that the sailor squadron suddenly asked to fight, we must act with speed to quickly quell all resistance forces and bring more than 10 people in Enyang area under our jurisdiction. Our strength will instantly increase a lot.

"Yes, Master Chenyu... Thank you, Master Chenyu, for giving us the opportunity," Jiang Zhong left happily.

As the sun was about to set, dinner was already in the camp. At dinner time, Du Chenyu called He Chaowu, Luo Feng, and Lei Jianqin to his side.
