Gangcun's willingness to die has already been explained to the Japanese army in North China... Even if the independent column cannot be eliminated this time, once the battle of southwest Shanxi is over.

He will send a large force to attack the independent column as well as that army and the Shanxi-Sui Army....

In Shanxi Province... Gangcun Ningdong must be captured.

Otherwise, the foundation of the entire North China region will be gone...

It's impossible for him not to know this truth...

"Pass my order...Have a good rest today...Tomorrow morning...Follow the large forces to attack the Ninth Group Army of the Jinsui Army..."

"Since the Central Army has been beaten by us... let's let this group of Jinsui Army have a good taste... of the power of our cavalry brigade..."

Yamano Shaomasa also wanted to have a good night's sleep... The successive victories these days have made him a little numb...

It's not difficult at all.

"Hi! Your Excellency Colonel...you can sleep peacefully...I will arrange sentinels to investigate..."

In the dead of night...the troops of the First Brigade of the Independent Column had quietly approached.

Among them, a battalion of rocket artillery troops came directly.

A battalion, no more, no less...there are only 12 Type 63 rocket launchers...

It is equivalent to 96 cannons with a caliber of 100mm or above....

Although the number of gates is relatively small...but the power is huge.

To deal with a small Japanese cavalry brigade... you don't need so many rocket launchers.

Other rocket launchers also need to attack the Japanese infantry units...

It's not just the rocket launcher units that are ready.

This armored battalion is also ready...

The commander of the armored battalion was waiting for orders at this time... They wanted to wait for the rocket launcher unit to launch the first round of attack, and then rush forward.

Otherwise, this rumbling sound...let alone the little devils...even their war horses would be scared away...

The first regiment...the second regiment, and the third regiment are also ready.

Still in the three directions of Guanjiapo...each group has nearly 2000 people...

The First Division is an artist...so their weapons are basically M14 automatic rifles, M60 squad machine guns, and Browning light and heavy machine guns...

Compared with the little devil's rifle... this firepower still has a huge advantage.

After all... the rate of fire of a rifle against an automatic rifle cannot keep up...

What are the Japanese cavalry afraid of... Aren't they afraid of continuous attacks... That is, weapons like machine guns... keep firing.

As long as the cavalry troops dare to charge, tens of thousands of bullets will roar towards them... which will not give them any chance to escape.

Especially the M14 automatic rifle. Although it is called a rifle, it is automatic.

Compared with submachine guns, it's about the same...the rate of fire may be a little different, but it's much better than an ordinary bolt-action rifle.

Look at the M60 squad machine gun again. Not to mention its light weight... its combat effectiveness is also first-class.

It is comparable to the MG42 general machine gun...

What's more, the First Division also has a modified version of the MG42 general-purpose machine gun, which is the production line rewarded by the system to the Juanyugou Arsenal... One type is the MG14 general-purpose machine gun that mainly uses M42 automatic rifle bullets...

The other is the MG47 general-purpose machine gun based on the AK42 automatic rifle.

The MG42 general-purpose machine gun has been the main machine gun equipped by independent columns from the beginning... and is still in use today.

The rate of fire is so fast that it is simply not comparable to the Japs' machine guns.

As long as this war horse dares to attack... there is only one way... a dead end!

The soldiers are almost ready...

The artillery unit is also ready.

"Battal Commander...the cannon is ready..."

"Twelve 12mm caliber infantry guns have been aimed at the cavalry troops on the west side of Guanjia Slope..."

"Twelve 12mm-caliber field guns have also been aimed at the cavalry troops on the south side of Guanjia Slope..."

"As for the mortars... they will be deployed at dawn tomorrow morning..."

"The infantry companies are also behind each artillery unit...to prevent sneak attacks by other Japanese troops..."

An artillery company commander ran over and looked at the artillery battalion commander.

Every infantry brigade has an artillery battalion.

However, there are still a lot of cannons in this artillery battalion... not only a dozen 75mm caliber infantry cannons... but also a dozen 75mm caliber field cannons.

As for the 105mm caliber howitzers and 150mm caliber howitzers, there are also several....

However, it is of no use now.

It's not yet time, all you need to deal with these little devils is a smaller caliber cannon...it's totally enough.

The artillery battalion commander nodded after hearing this.

"Let the soldiers have a good rest...tomorrow is probably going to be a tough battle..."

"The Japs' cavalry is not a big problem... I'm just afraid that the Japs' infantry will come to support..."

"At that time...there will definitely still be pressure."

"Order all artillery units to strengthen patrols...to prevent the arrival of Japanese scouts...Start the attack at 5:30 tomorrow morning!"

The artillery unit was the first to launch the attack, and they followed the rocket launcher unit....

This night... is destined to be an ordinary night.

It's about five o'clock in the morning...it's just starting to get light.

The soldiers of the rocket launcher unit are all ready.... All troops have agreed to attack at half past five....

The rocket launcher unit was divided into two groups...one group was aimed at the Japanese's First Cavalry Regiment, and the other was aimed at the Japanese's Second Cavalry Regiment.

"Everyone is in position...the first round of shelling..."

"Prepare...release!"

With just one order, the rocket launcher finally began to attack.

Boom boom boom....boom boom boom....

Twelve Type 12 rocket launchers were aimed at the two Japanese cavalry regiments from different directions...the first was an attack.

The sky, which was still gray, suddenly became a little brighter.

Like a star in the day and night....

The Japs were still sleeping.

Cannonballs weighing at least 100 kilograms each landed on the resting place.

Exploded instantly...

Hundreds of Japanese soldiers and hundreds of war horses were blown into the sky....

All kinds of broken limbs and broken arms...the internal organs of all kinds of horses have been blown out.

Even...the head has fallen to the ground...
