    After receiving a telegram from Li Guoyao from the front, Ma Desheng was still very worried when he learned that they had completely annihilated the puppet cavalry division of nearly 2,000 people, and were planning to further plot against the little devil's cavalry regiment and even the important town of Datong.  happy.

    He and Li Guoyao have worked together for more than four years, but for such a long time he has not clearly seen the potential of this young officer.

    As a person from the Hunan Army, he has seen the hardships of this unit over the years. Because he was from the Northeast Army, this unit suffered too much injustice from the beginning, and even had its designation revoked.

    But just when everyone thought this unit had no hope, Li Guoyao still believed in the future!

    From Wuhan to Shandong and now Chanan, from 3,000 men to three divisions in two years, no one can do better than him!

    Especially in combat command, with unconstrained tactics and unique strategic vision, it has almost become the norm to annihilate enemy division and brigade-level tactical units.

    Ma Desheng believes that if the time is pushed forward twenty years, this person will definitely become a powerful figure like Marshal Zhang, Chief Duan and Wu Peifu, and even be more dazzling than those people!

    While feeling emotional, Ma Desheng was also a little worried. After all, Li Guoyao was going to fight in Datong City this time. It was not a joke. If he were not careful, he would lose his front teeth!

    ¡°The current situation is that we can really win, but we can¡¯t afford to lose!

    If we win, everything will be easy, but if we fail, the plan of the troops to go north will be greatly affected, and even the plan of returning to their hometown will be completely ruined.

    But Ma Desheng also knew that Li Guoyao was born in the year of the Ox and was very stubborn. Once he decided something, others would not be able to persuade him. He, the chief of staff, could only cooperate with his actions!

    Soon, two cavalry regiments and a mule and horse transport team on Sumu Mountain were assembled. Then, under the watch of Ma Desheng, the army rushed to Pingdiquan Town under the starry night!

    After a night of silence, at seven o'clock the next morning, Li Guoyao, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by Xu Ziyu, saying that something was wrong!

    When I arrived at the temporary headquarters, I heard the combat staff come over with a telegram and said: "Report to the headquarters, the latest telegram has been sent by the Japanese Army Garrison Command in Mongolia!"

    "what's the situation?"

    "They notified the headquarters of the third division of the puppet army that the cavalry regiment of the cavalry group had set off from Zhuozishan County and was expected to arrive at Pingdiquan Town in two hours, and asked them to prepare food and supplies for the enemy army to go south.  Supplies! At the same time, let the two regiments that are accompanying the army to go south be prepared. The troops will leave after eating!" the combat staff replied.

    "Well, send a report to the Mongolian Army Headquarters immediately, and the reply has been received!"

    "yes!"

    Knowing that the Japanese cavalry had already set off, Li Guoyao immediately ordered the troops to prepare to "receive" them. Of course, there was no food or drink, and there were enough guns and bullets!

    Knowing that the opponent's troops were limited, Li Guoyao immediately ordered people to vacate the horse parking lot outside Pingdiquan Town, and then set up an ambush on the main street inside the town to wait for the arrival of these Japanese troops.

    In order to completely frighten the puppet troops, Li Guoyao did not act alone this time. Instead, he released the puppet army officers and took them with him. The soldiers were scattered around the battlefield. He wanted these puppet troops to see that they were  How to fight the Japanese!

    It was already 8:30 in the morning when the arrangements were made, and it was estimated that the Japanese troops would be arriving soon. Then Li Guoyao personally took Hastuleng and others to the gate of the town, waiting for the arrival of the Japanese cavalry.

    On the road more than ten miles away from Pingdiquan Town, a Japanese cavalry force of more than 1,500 people was galloping!

    ????????????????????????????????????????These cavalry are all wearing light yellow with a little gray, everyone is wearing a cloak and goggles, and the heads are not the melon-skin hats of ordinary little devils, but steel helmets covered with cloth.

    The war horse beneath him is also huge, with leather armor covering its head. Judging from its appearance alone, it is indeed very powerful.

    As for the cavalry, which has been discontinued, the Japanese army has not paid much attention to it. Even in 1919, Lieutenant General Wu Qi proposed to abolish the cavalry, and this decision was even approved by the headquarters.  .

    However, this decision of the base camp was changed in the 11th year of Showa. At that time, the armament dispatch meeting of the Japanese Army General Staff Headquarters decided to abolish the cavalry of the Japanese Army. However, due to the support of the Japanese Emperor Chichibu, a cavalry brigade, namely the cavalry, was retained.  The 4th Brigade, codenamed "Chengbing Regiment".

    Later, the war of aggression against China broke out.In view of the worrying level of infrastructure in China, the base camp temporarily decided to retain the cavalry establishment. However, the cavalry is no longer the main combat force and is only used as a supplementary force on the battlefield.

    Therefore, throughout the Chinese battlefield, although there were many cavalry units of the Japanese invaders, the largest one was just a cavalry group. This group had two cavalry brigades under its jurisdiction, and should be at the division level in terms of organization.

    And this kind of organization is the only one in the entire Japanese army. The vast majority of cavalry are dispersed to various field divisions in regiment-level organizations, and there is no intention to use cavalry in large-scale operations.

    But even so, the Japanese army is still very generous to cavalry. Although the strength may be far less than that of infantry troops of the same level, the cost is much more than that of infantry.

    Even the money spent to equip one cavalry is enough to equip five ordinary infantry. After all, the war horse and the equipment are far beyond what ordinary infantry can compare with.

    It is precisely because of this high cost that many people in the Japanese army are very enthusiastic about abolishing the cavalry!

    A very prestigious general in the Japanese Army at the time was quoted as saying that if all the cavalry in the Imperial Army of Japan were abolished, the Imperial Army could add at least 200,000 elite infantry.

    What is the concept of 200,000 elite infantry? That is equivalent to 13 three-unit garrison divisions!

    Whether such a powerful military force is deployed in North China, Central China, or South China, it can cause major changes in the battlefield situation.

    However, the actual situation in China did not allow the Japanese army to withdraw the cavalry troops. Although the cavalry troops did not have much success, they still had great advantages in mobile defense.

    Especially in the northern region of China, since most places are vast and sparsely populated, and the distance between each town is far enough, with underdeveloped transportation, if a certain number of cavalry is not retained, the Japanese will simply  I can't look after such a large area.

    But even so, with the continuous development of military technology, it is a certainty that the cavalry will be abolished, which makes many Japanese cavalry very dissatisfied!

    Yuichi Yoshikawa, the captain of the 13th Cavalry Regiment, is such a person. He has been a cavalryman all his life. At the critical moment when he was about to be promoted to general, the superiors actually wanted to remove the cavalry group and cavalry brigade. For Yuichi Yoshikawa,  No less than a bolt from the blue!

    Although the base camp did not explicitly state that the establishment of the cavalry regiment was to be abolished, for Yoshikawa Yuichi, once the establishment of the cavalry brigade and cavalry group was removed, it would actually kill his path to promotion.

    There was originally a cavalry brigade, and a cavalry captain like him could easily be promoted to cavalry major general. Now the headquarters has decided to transform the entire cavalry group into the Third Chariot Division, and their arms have been switched from cavalry to armored troops.  .

    These are two completely different arms. With their antique combat methods, they cannot command chariot troops at all.

    Therefore, the commander of the cavalry group, Lieutenant General Yoshizo Kojima, has confirmed that he will not serve in the 3rd Chariot Division. There is a high probability that these cavalry commanders will not be retained in the 3rd Chariot Division, but may be dispersed to various divisions.  Served in the regiment's cavalry wing.

    Therefore, fighting south this time is Yoshikawa Yuichi's only chance. As long as he can seize the opportunity, he may be directly promoted to a general based on his qualifications. In the future, whether he serves in the infantry or armored forces, he will be able to do so by virtue of his vast experience.  Fish leap.

    But if he fails to seize the opportunity this time, then he may never have a chance with the general in his life!

    This is not only a dilemma faced by Yoshikawa Yuan alone, but also a problem faced by all Japanese cavalry commanders!
