The attack of the Japanese Guard Division has officially begun.

The vanguard was the 1st Cavalry Brigade, which is the Southern Brigade.

There are two types of cavalry corps of the Japanese army. One is the cavalry corps under the division. This cavalry corps is a small corps with only two cavalry squadrons under its jurisdiction and more than 700 people.

The other is the independent cavalry corps. This cavalry corps is under the jurisdiction of four cavalry squadrons, with all combatants of up to 1,400 or even 1,700.

The Southern Brigade is of course an independent cavalry brigade.

Moreover, there are as many as three cavalry corps under the Southern Brigade, in addition to the 13th and 14th Cavalry Regiments, there are also the Guards Cavalry Regiments.

In addition, there is a cavalry artillery corps and a baggage corps.

Now, the Southern Brigade has added an anti-aircraft artillery wing.

Therefore, the strength of the southern brigade has expanded to 8,000 people! More than 9,000 horses!

There is no doubt that this is a very large combat group and has extremely mobile!

Returning from the division headquarters to the brigade command center, the southern Borough did not delay for a second, so he led the entire brigade and rushed to Quantang Town along the road.

When I walked to the vicinity of Yamenling, I was blocked by the Honorary 9th Division.

The only company of the Honorary 9th Division guarded on Yamen Ridge was the only one company, but the southern brigade did not have any desire to fight. After a little contact, it immediately left the road and penetrated from Qinwu Village in Huantan Ridge and Taishan Ridge. Before the Honorary 9th Division had time to react, it had already arrived at Quantang Town.

In one day, the southern brigade drove nearly a hundred miles to Quantang Town.

At this time, the 41st Army and the 10th Army had not even had time to complete coordination, so there was no troops stationed in the town.

"It's raining. The brigade commander, should I go to the temple to avoid the rain?"

The captain of the 13th Cavalry Regiment, Yulang, rode his horse to the south of Bozhi and asked in a low voice.

"It's just a little light rain, don't care." Nanbu Bozhi didn't care at all, but just turned the hood that came with the canopy and put it on his head.

Looking forward through the raindrops, I saw that the entire town of Tong was already in a sea of ​​fire.

The cavalry of the guards cavalry corps, who served as the vanguard of the entire brigade, were clashing back and forth in the sea of ​​fire. From time to time, townsmen fled in panic from the streets and alleys, and then soon cavalry caught up from behind. As the cold light flashed, their heads rolled onto the ground one by one.

Although it was massacre of civilians, Nanbu Bozhi not only did not have a trace of sympathy and pity, but he even felt waves of indescribable cruel pleasure.

Low nations should not stay in this world.

The vast land in the Far East can only belong to the Yamato nation!

Half an hour later, a rider slowly came to the south of Bozhi's horse. When the saber fell, a trace of red and sticky blood slid down the blade.

The next moment, the bloody saber suddenly raised upwards.

"Brig Team Commander!" Beidian Er honored the cavalry's sword-raising salute.

As the captain of the Guards Cavalry Regiment, Beidian Er came from a real warrior family. His pride and cold blood have almost been integrated into his bones, but he admired Nanbu Bozhi very much.

Because in Beidian Er's view, Nanbu Bozhi is a real cavalry expert.

When it comes to the use of cavalry tactics, no one can get out of the right side of the southern part of Bozhi!

Nanbu Bozhi nodded slightly and said, "Baidianjun, let's stop the team when it's almost done."

"Hayi!" Beidian Er paused his head suddenly, then turned his horse's head, then raised his saber to the front, and then shouted at the top of his lungs, "Guards Cavalry Federation, advance..."

The cavalry on standby on the road turned their horses and rolled forward.

The cavalry that were burning, killing and looting in the town rushed out of the town and merged into the marching horses one by one. Soon, the long horses disappeared on the rugged and winding mountain road.

Sheng Yulang said worriedly: "The brigade commander, it's almost dark."

Sheng Yulang was a little worried that he would be ambushed by Chinese troops while he was marching at night.

But Nanbu Hiroyuki waved his hand and said calmly: "It's okay, as long as we pass Quantang Town, we will be detoured to the side of the 41st Chinese Army, so we will not be ambushed."

Although Nanbu Bozhi was the brigade commander of the 1st Cavalry Brigade and had never fought with the Chinese army, his research on the Chinese battlefield was very in-depth. He had done comprehensive research and analysis whether it was the Battle of Songhu, Taiyuan, Xuzhou, and Wuhan.

Nanbu Bozhi concluded that the Chinese army had a serious lack of active offensive spirit and would only be passively defended, and its defense level was out of touch with the average level of today's world. Most of the time, the Chinese army would only spread its forces on the front side and lack protection on the rear side.

So most of the time, as long as a small force redirects to the side of the Chinese army, the Chinese army, which is spreading in the front of the battlefield, will immediately fall into panic and will be defeated on the whole line!

Therefore, Nanbu Bozhi has a rough judgment on the subsequent evolution of the battlefield.

The rough judgment is that as the southern brigade completed the roundabout encirclement from Quantang Town, the main force of the 41st Army in the triangular area between Fuyang, Tonglu and Zhuji will fall into chaos. If the southern brigade continues to intersperse, detour behind Zhuji County, and cut off the retreat of the 41st Army, the Chinese army will inevitably collapse.

Even if the 41st Army cannot be completely wiped out by then, it will be certain that it will cause a heavy blow.

Therefore, Nanbu Bozhi didn't even want to delay for a second. He was already very unhappy after the Guards Cavalry Regiment delayed at Quantang Town for at least half an hour. It was just because Beidian II came from a samurai family that did not have an attack.

But Nanbu Hoshi was not so polite to Katsuyuro because Katsuyuro came from a civilian family.

At this moment, Nanbu Bozhi said in a deep voice: "Shengjun, your cavalry 13th Regiment must also speed up your progress, so there should be no disconnect between you and the guards cavalry corps."

Sheng Yulang paused and said, "Hayi!"

...

Almost at the same time, Lin Wei also learned about the attack on Quantang Town.

However, at this time, Lin Wei's headquarters had withdrawn from Zhuji County and was retreating along the highway towards Pujiang. When Lin Wei's face changed immediately when he learned that Quantang Town was attacked.

Lin Wei instantly realized the seriousness of the problem.

Lin Wei's eyes suddenly appeared in front of him, the Battle of Songhu and the final stage of the Battle of Xinkou.

At the beginning, the Kuomintang army actually fought well in the Battle of Shanghai and Xinkou, and the situation seemed to have stabilized, but as an enemy detoured from the side and rear, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse and worsened sharply.
