The Zhong Wu Cavalry Brigade originally had two regiments, each with 600 cavalrymen.
They were from the Northeast Army, and their main equipment was Liao manufactured weapons. These Liao manufactured weapons were mainly imitation of Japanese weapons.
After combining with Chen Yang's Tiger Assault Battalion, the two regiments were reduced to two cavalry battalions.
The Fierce Tiger Assault Battalion was reorganized into the 1st Battalion, and Yang Chen was temporarily the Battalion Commander.
He Jian and Zhang Wei were old subordinates of Zhong Wu, so Yang Chen didn't change them.
As for the two cavalry battalions, they still retained their original weapons and equipment.
However, Yang Chen had used the MP34 submachine gun and Garand rifle that the combat system had awarded him to supplement them.
This was to ensure that all the officers above the squad leader level could use these semi-automatic rifles and automatic submachine guns to increase their firepower.
In addition, the large caliber mortars and mountain cannons that Zhong Wu had seized were also incorporated into these two cavalry battalions to strengthen their firepower.
The Japanese didn't trust the Zhong Wu Cavalry Brigade, so they didn't give them too many cannons.
They only had some Liao manufactured mortars, but with the mountain cannons and field cannons, their number of cannons had increased greatly.
By now, the temporary replenishment regiment had more than 2,000 soldiers, and the number of cannons was even more shocking.
Not counting the small caliber mortars and machine guns, the 1st Battalion had four 82mm mortars and six 75mm infantry cannons.
The 2nd Battalion had four 81mm mortars and four 120mm mortars.
The 3rd Battalion had more cannons. They had four 81mm mortars, four 75mm mountain cannons, and two 88mm field cannons.
Each regiment had sixteen medium and heavy mortars, twelve mountain cannons, field cannons, and infantry cannons.
With such a large number of cannons, even if they encountered a Japanese team, they would still have the advantage.
After the formation of the troops, Yang Chen only inspected the situation of the two cavalry battalions to understand their combat strength.
Although the original Fierce Tiger Assault Battalion also had more than three hundred warhorses, these warhorses only provided mobility. The Assault Battalion still dismounted and fought.
However, the two cavalry battalions were different. They were real cavalry and fought on horseback.
However, with the appearance of a large number of machine guns and armored vehicles, the battle situation had changed greatly.
Cavalry was destined to be eliminated.
Putting everything else aside, a thousand cavalrymen and a dozen tanks would be enough to take care of all of them.
Therefore, in future battles, these two cavalry battalions would definitely have to be modified.
For Yang Chen, as long as he used these cavalrymen properly, they could still play a big role.
No matter what, the temporary replenishment regiment had been formed. The small Nanzhuang Village was filled with fully armed soldiers.
It was a joke for the Japanese army to surround the Gray Cloud Ridge.
Although they had arranged for Zhao Rui's 3,000 troops to seal off the gap, the troops were scattered in Yang Town and Liu Town. There were gaps everywhere.
As long as Yang Chen and the other troops were willing, they could break out of the encirclement at any time.
This time, the betrayal of Zhong Wu Cavalry Brigade had a huge impact on the strategy of the Japanese and puppet troops, and also caused great losses to Zhao Rui's puppet troops.
Ding Wei of the new regiment and Li Yunlong of the independent regiment were very envious when they heard the news.
Currently, the number of the temporary supplementary team had not been leaked, but the two of them were both smart people and immediately guessed it.
"Motherf * cker, back in the Gray Cloud Ridge, they only had a few dozen people and a few cannons. Now, they have at least two thousand people after taking over this cavalry. However, our Old Li isn't jealous. Zhang Dabiao, what's the situation? Have you investigated the specific deployment of the puppet troops in Yang Zhen and Liu Zhen?”
In the Independent Regiment's headquarters, Li Yun Long's eyes were wide open as he stared at the location of Yang Town and Liu Town on the map.
He knew that other than the new independent regiment, there was also a mysterious troop in the Gray Cloud Ridge area.
This unit also belonged to the 386th Brigade, and they had created a series of glorious achievements in the Gray Cloud Ridge.
It would be a lie if Li Yunlong wasn't jealous. He felt very uncomfortable watching others drink and eat while he didn't even have a mouthful of soup.
Therefore, Li Yunlong instantly set his eyes on the 8th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army, preparing to fight a good battle to console himself.
"Captain, we've already investigated.”Zhang Dabiao immediately came over and began to report in detail.
At the same time, Ding Wei was also looking at the map in the new regiment headquarters.
"There are at least a dozen cannons, enough for an artillery regiment. Who is commanding this unit to actually instigate the rebellion of the puppet cavalry regiment? No wonder the brigade commander didn't let us break out of the encirclement. It turns out that they were prepared.”
After Ding Wei understood the situation, his face was full of surprise. He was very envious of the results of this unit.
Ding Wei didn't even dare to think about a dozen cannons. If he had a few, he would probably be so happy that he couldn't sleep.
"There aren't many puppet troops in Liu Town. We'll attack Liu Town and take it down quickly. Although the puppet troops don't have large caliber artillery, they still have light and heavy machine guns. It's not bad to be able to seize these weapons.”
"Chief of Staff, order the troops to gather quickly. We will take action tonight and take down Liu Zhen first.”
Ding Wei's eyes were locked on Liu Zhen. He had a serious expression on his face as he spoke directly.
"Yes, Guild Leader." The chief of staff quickly agreed.
The new regiment and the independent regiment had their eyes on Yang Zhen and Liu Zhen's Eighth Mixed Brigade.
Ding Wei and Li Yunlong wanted to drink some soup and were ready to attack Zhao Rui's troops.
At the same time, the temporary reinforcement group that had just completed their formation was also staring at Zhao Rui's troops.
"Zhao Rui's troops are the Japanese's loyal lackeys. They participated in the clean-up and massacred the people.”
"Our regiment has just been formed. It is obviously the most suitable to use these idiots as practice. If we can annihilate them, that would be even better.”
"In addition, when the special forces platoon was scouting, they found the nearby brothers and sent scouting troops. Clearly, they are also going to make a move.”
Zhao Ze pointed at the map and explained the situation.
Chen Yang and Zhong Wu stood at the side, staring at the map with thoughtful expressions.
" Captain," Zhong Wu said quickly," I'm afraid that Zhao Rui's troops are just bait thrown out by the Japanese.”
Zhong Wu had seen through Katayama Shuntaro's plan. He said with a serious expression.
Yang Chen looked at Zhong Wu with approval. He had already noticed this.
However, after knowing that Li Yun Long and Ding Wei had their own ideas, Yang Chen had a bolder idea.
