Chapter 106: Cavalry Battalion Attacks
The next morning.
The sky was just beginning to turn pale.
Li Yunlong couldn't wait to pull Sun Desheng to the command center.
Gundam was rubbing his sleepy eyes, obviously having just woken up.
"Old Li, Captain Sun, you two are really enthusiastic to report in so early. Don't worry, let me pack up, and we will set off for the cavalry battalion right away." Gaoda said while yawning.
Li Yunlong and Sun Desheng smiled at each other and waited patiently outside the door.
Soon, Gaoda appeared in front of them in a neat suit and said in high spirits: "Okay, let's go and take a look at our cavalry camp."
The group walked through the camp and arrived at the cavalry battalion's training ground.
At this time, the soldiers on the training ground were leading their horses, talking in whispers or stroking the horses' manes.
They all knew that today was a special day - the new battalion commander was about to take office.
The soldiers' faces were filled with curiosity and anticipation. They discussed privately and speculated about the identity of the new battalion commander.
Just as everyone was discussing heatedly, Gaoda brought Li Yunlong and Sun Desheng into the training ground.
In an instant, all the sounds stopped, and the soldiers turned their heads and looked at the three visitors.
When they saw that it was Captain Gundam, they immediately stopped talking, quickly organized their team, and stood in an orderly manner.
Sun Desheng looked at the well-equipped cavalry team in front of him and his excitement was beyond words.
He exclaimed in his heart: "What the instructor said is true, the county brigade actually has a powerful cavalry battalion!
It's really amazing. I never dreamed that one day I would be able to command such a powerful cavalry."
Gundam stood in front of the soldiers and shouted:
“Comrades of the Cavalry Battalion, today, I would like to introduce to you a new member of our big family—our new battalion commander.
He is an outstanding cavalry commander. I believe that under his leadership, our cavalry battalion will be more brave and fearless and will be able to eliminate more Japanese devils.
Now, please give the warmest applause to welcome the new commander of the Cavalry Battalion, Sun Desheng! "
As Gundam finished his words, thunderous applause broke out on the training ground.
Gaoda smiled and turned to look at Sun Desheng beside him:
"Captain Sun, the stage is now yours. Go and say a few words to your comrades. They are eagerly awaiting your speech."
Sun Desheng took a deep breath and walked to the front of the stage.
Seeing this, the soldiers fell silent.
Sun Desheng stood on the stage and began his speech,.......
When Sun Desheng finished his speech, prolonged applause broke out again.
"Sun Desheng, the cavalry battalion is counting on you. In the coming days, if you have any needs or questions, go directly to instructor Li Yunlong. He is now in charge of the affairs of the cavalry battalion."
"Yes, Captain!"
Then, Gundam nodded with satisfaction, turned around, left the training ground and returned to the headquarters.
And in the following week.
Sun Desheng led the soldiers of the cavalry battalion into high-intensity training.
From the first light of dawn to the falling of night, the training ground is always echoing with the sound of horse hooves, commands and the shouts of soldiers.
Under Sun Desheng's strict requirements and careful guidance, the soldiers of the cavalry battalion improved their riding skills and their tactical coordination became more and more tacit.
As an instructor, Li Yunlong always pays attention to every progress of the cavalry battalion.
Whenever Li Yunlong saw the outstanding performance of the soldiers of the cavalry battalion in training, he would smile with satisfaction.
Finally, after a week of hard training, Li Yunlong arrived at the headquarters and found Gundam.
He excitedly told Gao Da: "Lao Gao, the changes in the cavalry camp in the past week are really huge!
This kid Sun Desheng did not disappoint us. His training methods and leadership abilities are excellent.
The warriors' riding skills and tactical coordination have made a qualitative leap. It seems that our original decision was very correct! "
After hearing this, Gundam nodded slightly.
"Old Li, you really have a unique vision. It is a blessing for the cavalry battalion to be able to recruit a general like Sun Desheng."
Then, Gundam changed the subject and talked about the equipment of the cavalry battalion:
"By the way, Lao Li, I have already made arrangements for the PPSh submachine guns. The arsenal has worked overtime to produce 100 of them. They are now in the warehouse, specially tailored for the cavalry battalion."
When Li Yunlong heard this, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
"Great, Lao Gao! This batch of submachine guns is just what we need. With them, our cavalry battalion's firepower will be greatly enhanced, and its combat effectiveness will also be improved. I will go to the warehouse to pick them up later."
Gaoda looked at Li Yunlong's passionate expression.
So, Gaoda continued: "Old Li, the cavalry battalion is now on the right track, but this is just the beginning.
The real test is yet to come. We need to let the cavalry battalion be baptized in actual combat, only in this way can they become stronger.
Therefore, I decided to let you lead the cavalry battalion to take the initiative and attack the Japanese strongholds and mopping-up forces."
Li Yunlong nodded when he heard this. He knew that this was the only way to improve the combat effectiveness of the cavalry battalion.
"No problem, Lao Gao! I have full confidence in the Cavalry Battalion. Starting from next week, the Cavalry Battalion will launch an all-out attack on the Japanese!"
Gaoda and Li Yunlong made arrangements for the cavalry.
Li Yunlong began to go back and convey the next action instructions.
The soldiers of the cavalry battalion were very excited when they heard that they were going out to fight the Japanese.
As the strongest mobile force of the county brigade, everyone has high hopes for the cavalry battalion.
Time flies.
Soon it was a week later.
Today is the day for the cavalry battalion to take the initiative.
Early in the morning, Gaoda, Li Yunlong and other commanders of the county brigade arrived at the training ground.
At this time, the soldiers of the cavalry battalion on the training ground had already made preparations for action.
The soldiers stood in neat rows, waiting for the order to set off.
Gaoda said to Li Yunlong beside him, "Old Li, today is the cavalry's first attack. Everyone in the county brigade is watching the performance of your cavalry. You must complete the operation successfully."
"Don't worry, Lao Gao, there will be absolutely no problem. These past few days I have been leading people to observe the large strongholds of the Japanese within a 10-kilometer radius.
I found that the Japanese would come out every few days to carry out mopping-up operations in nearby villages. Today, I will lead the cavalry to attack the mopping-up troops coming out of the Japanese stronghold and completely wipe them out. "Li Yunlong said.
"Okay, Lao Li, since you have already made the arrangements, let's do as you say."
Then Gundam ordered the cavalry battalion to go into battle.
Li Yunlong and Sun Desheng led the cavalry battalion to launch an attack.
