Chapter 34 Cunning
Wang Ye spread his long legs and ran away.
The wasteland was rapidly retreating from under his feet, the whistling north wind kept blowing into his ears, and his cheeks were even squeezed and deformed by the north wind, which showed how fast he was running!
However, the sound of horse hooves was still getting closer.
Without looking back, he knew that the Japanese cavalry had approached within fifty meters.
Wang Ye estimated that his current running speed was about six meters per second, and the speed of the Japanese cavalry was about ten meters per second. In another twelve seconds, the Japanese cavalry would be able to catch up with him and wield their swords!
But fortunately, the narrow valley they had chosen was less than fifty meters ahead.
At the entrance to the narrow valley, they had dug dozens of horse traps that were five feet long, one foot wide, and three feet deep, and buried deer antlers and bamboo sticks in the pits.
There should be enough time.
We should be able to run into the narrow valley before being caught up by the Japanese cavalry.
Then, the Japanese cavalry following behind would be severely damaged by the horse traps, the Japanese cavalry in front would be overturned, and the Japanese cavalry behind would be thrown into chaos due to the collision.
Then the Japanese cavalry will become targets.
Everything is calculated and just right!
…
Kentaro Sato also realized that something was wrong.
However, the cavalry's advantage in mobility still made him fearless.
Even if there are ambushes on both sides of the narrow valley ahead, what does it matter? The imperial cavalry can still retreat calmly after completing the killing, and may even be able to counterattack. Infantry will never be able to defeat cavalry!
"Taoci deserves it!" Sato Kentaro raised his sword and howled.
While howling, Kentaro Sato also started the final acceleration.
Because the terrain in the valley has begun to flatten, the conditions are right for a top-speed sprint.
At Sato Kentaro's command, the thirty or so riders who were accompanying him also began to sprint.
In an instant, the thunder-like sound of horse hooves turned into dense drum beats, making people feel uneasy.
Behind these Japanese cavalrymen, there were also eye-catching belts of smoke and dust on the ground. The scene looked as if more than thirty tornadoes were roaring towards the narrow valley.
…
The sound of horse hooves suddenly became denser.
Wang Ye immediately realized that something was wrong!
When he looked back hurriedly, he saw that the Japanese cavalry had actually accelerated again, and were like sharp arrows, shooting towards his back. Damn!
After cursing, Wang Ye sped up.
I was careless and forgot that the terrain here is relatively flat and the Japanese cavalry can sprint!
At that moment, Wang Ye also unleashed all his potential and increased his speed to about nine meters per second. This speed was enough for him to participate in the Berlin Olympics.
…
Both sides of the valley.
Wei Dayong, who was running the second leg, had already reached the designated position. As for the other eleven war wolves that did not participate in the relay, they had been lying in ambush here for a long time.
Seeing the Japanese cavalry suddenly start to speed up,
Wei Dayong and other team members' hearts immediately rose to their throats.
"Run, run! My king, run!" The war wolves clenched their fists, wishing they could transmit their physical strength to Wang Ye in the narrow valley.
Finally, Wang Ye rushed into the narrow valley.
Rush into the narrow valley before being caught up by the Japanese cavalry!
Seeing this, the twelve war wolves lying in ambush on both sides breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the king enters the narrow valley, he will be safe. Next, it is their turn to take action!
At that moment, the twelve War Wolves raised their rifles in unison and aimed their guns at the charging Japanese cavalry, but they did not rush to shoot.
Wei Dayong began to calculate silently in his mind: 1, 2...
When I counted to 3, a loud horse neighing suddenly sounded in the narrow valley.
Looking down at the narrow valley again, we saw that the seven or eight war horses in the front had stumbled and fallen to the ground, and the Japanese cavalrymen on their horses were also thrown to the ground.
The Japanese cavalry that followed behind saw that something was wrong and tried to rein in their horses, but it was too late.
In an instant, the cavalry that followed behind rushed up violently, and dozens of Japanese cavalry were instantly squeezed together, in chaos, and wailing!
This is the moment I’ve been waiting for!
Wei Dayong and other wolf warriors opened fire decisively.
Accompanied by the crisp sound of gunfire, the Japanese were shot one after another.
Without even catching his breath, Wang Ye turned around and fired continuously.
Wang Ye had obviously anticipated such a scene, so in addition to the rifle, he also prepared himself a Nambu-style pistol, which would come in handy.
The Type 14 Nambu pistol has high accuracy and great lethality, making it a powerful weapon in close combat.
The only problem is that the ammunition feeding design is flawed and it is easy to jam when shooting.
But this time, miraculously, there was no jamming. After firing eight rounds from a magazine, Wang Ye had killed and wounded eight Japanese soldiers. When he was about to change the magazine, a Japanese soldier suddenly rushed over.
Although this Japanese cavalryman lost his warhorse, he was still as ferocious.
"Xinei!" The Japanese cavalry roared and thrust his sword forward.
When on horseback, hacking is more lethal, but when dismounted, it is not as threatening as stabbing.
As soon as Wang Ye saw the devil's moves, he knew that he was a veteran who not only had excellent riding skills, but also was well versed in the essence of assassination.
Wang Ye jumped sideways subconsciously, but suddenly felt his ankles sink. Oh no, some dying Japanese must have grabbed both of his ankles and he couldn't escape!
In the blink of an eye, the saber had already stabbed over.
Wang Ye could only turn his body sideways with great difficulty.
But he knew very well that this was basically useless against an assassination expert.
Because you can turn your body sideways, your opponent can also adjust the angle with his wrist.
So Wang Ye didn't expect to be able to dodge the knife completely, as long as he could avoid the vital points.
It’s a long story to explain, but in fact it only took less than half a second. With a “swish” sound, the Japanese saber had already stabbed Wang Ye in the abdomen.
Then, it slid past my abdomen with a hissing sound.
"What?" The Japanese cavalry was stunned immediately.
How is it possible? This knife couldn't penetrate the Tubalu?
Wang Ye was also stunned. Is this the immunity to cold weapons of a cold weapon-level physique?
Half a second later, Wang Ye was the first to react and shot the Japanese in the face.
The Japanese cavalryman's face was immediately smashed to pieces. A large piece of his nose bridge, upper jaw and even cheek bone were smashed. His Type 14 Nambu pistol was also smashed, which shows the power of this blow!
The Japanese cavalry were killed on the spot without a sound.
Looking down again, he saw another Japanese cavalryman staring at him fiercely with eyes wide open.
This Japanese cavalryman was obviously seriously injured, but he still desperately stretched out his hands and grabbed his ankles, trying to give his comrade a chance to kill him with one blow.
However, this is of no use.
Wang Ye raised his right foot and stepped down hard.
With a loud snap, the Japanese cavalryman's cervical vertebrae were broken.
At this time, the battle was over. Faced with the crossfire from both sides of the narrow valley, the Japanese cavalry could not even find a shelter to hide and could only become targets.
However, one Japanese cavalryman managed to escape.
Wei Dayong and a dozen others slid down the hillsides on both sides, and Wang Gensheng also came over panting.
Wang Ye looked at his abdomen and found that there was a cut on his cotton military uniform, the cotton wool was leaking out, and the shirt inside was torn, but his belly was intact.
After checking again and again, I found that he was not injured.
Wang Ye couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Wei Dayong, who was the first to descend by rope, also grinned foolishly.
"My king, we are rich. Haha, we are rich this time!"
Wang Xikui, Liu Dongtang and others who followed the rope down were also in a daze.
However, Wang Ye knew that now was not the time to be happy and complacent, because they had only killed a cavalry squad, and more Japanese cavalry might come to reinforce at any time.
So, be sure to transfer immediately.
"Quick!" Wang Ye shouted, "Gather the horses and equipment, and move quickly!"
In less than ten minutes, the Wolf Warriors collected 17 Japanese horses, 30 Type 38 cavalry rifles, 30 sabers, and more than 300 bullets.
Several Japanese horses were frightened and ran several hundred meters away.
Wei Dayong said, "Your Majesty, I will go and bring back those Japanese horses."
Wang Xikui also drew his bayonet and walked towards the Japanese horses that had fallen to the ground with broken legs.
"Kill these Japanese horses and bring them back to Yang Village. They will be enough for us to eat for several months."
"No, there's no time." Wang Ye said decisively, "We must move immediately!"
"What? You don't want the horses over there either?" Wei Dayong shouted, "My lord, those are intact, they are all military horses!"
"You know nothing, kid. Don't lose the watermelon while picking up sesame seeds!" Wang Ye said, then he jumped on his horse and shouted, "Retreat, retreat with me quickly, quickly !"
"Retreat, retreat, retreat quickly!"
Wei Dayong climbed onto the horse with a dark face.
The other team members followed suit and mounted their horses.
Then lead the three extra horses and ride away.
In less than a moment, the Wolf Warrior Squad disappeared on the mountain path.
About fifteen minutes later, the rumbling sound of horse hooves was heard again outside the valley.
Immediately afterwards, a large mass of Japanese cavalry rushed in along the valley. It was the main force of the Japanese cavalry squadron, and the leader was none other than Kentaro Sato who had managed to escape.
Looking at the empty valley, Sato was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
This group of Eighth Route Army soldiers are so cunning and difficult to deal with.
