Chapter seven hundred and ninety fifth kill the cavalry brigade
A heavy machine gun platoon with three heavy machine guns against four Japanese heavy machine guns is definitely no match.
There were constant misfires from heavy machine guns.
"Deputy shooter, enter. The time has come to fight desperately. We must withstand the Japanese cavalry attack no matter what!" the heavy machine gun platoon leader gritted his teeth and ordered.
Then he put the pistol on his waist and squatted next to the machine gun as the assistant shooter, ready to take over the heavy machine gun and become the shooter at any time.
"Rumble..."
The enemy and our heavy machine guns exchanged fire, and when the fight was inextricably linked, the roar of the cavalry charge rang out.
More than thirty Japanese cavalrymen, like an unsheathed sword, thrust towards the high ground from several hundred meters away at very high speed.
"Light machine gun, rifle, shoot immediately, resolutely block the Japanese attack!" Rong Jun personally picked up a rifle from a sacrificed soldier, squatted on the ground, shouted orders, and pulled the trigger to shoot at the Japanese cavalry rushing over.
"Da da da... bang bang bang..."
Soon, intensive gunshots rang in my ears.
The Japanese cavalry that rushed over quickly killed people one after another, and they fell to the ground together with their horses.
But these casualties could not stop the Japanese, nor could they suppress the Japanese's morale in wanting to occupy the high ground.
Lying on the back of the horse, he kept kicking the horse on his crotch and attacked the high ground, getting faster and faster.
Some Japs with better equestrian skills directly relied on their feet to control the horses, freed their hands, picked up their rifles, and shot at the high ground while attacking.
People around the Rong Army were constantly being beaten to death. The Japanese cavalry also suffered heavy casualties, but in the end there were still seven or eight Japanese soldiers charging towards the high ground with sabers raised and howling.
Just when Rong Jun was about to give the order to bayonet, a loud roar suddenly sounded next to him.
"One platoon rushed with me and blocked the remaining Japs in front of the position. Even if I die, I won't be able to let the Japs cavalry rush to the high ground."
Then I saw a platoon leader from the 11th Company charging towards the heights with a submachine gun.
Dozens of soldiers followed closely behind, showing a fierce and fearless posture.
There are not many Japanese cavalry left in front of us, but their speed is too fast. If they are allowed to rush to the high ground, the powerful impact will definitely mess up the high ground.
In addition to the casualties caused by the Japanese cavalry's sabers to the troops, it is possible that more than half of the troops suffered casualties.
At this time, someone steps forward and rushes over to block the Japanese and buy time for others to shoot. This is definitely the best way to reduce troop casualties.
However, in this case, the troops who rush out are likely to be completely killed or injured in the close collision with the Japanese cavalry.
"Shoot, others continue to shoot, use bullets to kill the remaining Japs, don't let a row of soldiers die in vain!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a row of more than 20 soldiers collided with the Japanese cavalry. The first seven or eight soldiers were knocked over by the cavalry on the spot and fell to the ground, uncertain whether they were alive or dead.
The faces of the others turned pale in a flash, and even though they were filled with fear, they continued to charge forward with their rifles in hand.
Some people rushed towards the Japanese with their bayonets drawn, hoping to knock the Japanese off their horses, while others directly raised grenades, intending to die with the Japanese.
In the end, most of the soldiers were hacked to death by sabers before they even got close to the Japanese.
However, after several violent explosions rang out among the cavalry, the soldiers, who wanted to die together, still took the lives of the four Japanese.
"Shoot, kill the remaining Japs, and avenge the fallen comrades!" Rong Jun aimed at a Japs cavalry who was close at hand, quickly pulled the trigger, punched a bloody hole in his chest, and shouted loudly.
In the end, the first platoon used their sacrifice to block the Japanese in front of the high ground and cooperated with the main force to defend the high ground.
"Bageya Road, I didn't expect the Eighth Route Army's fighting will to be so strong. They would rather die than retreat. It's beyond my expectation!" The Japanese captain who was watching the battle behind was also shocked and couldn't help but sigh.
However, he did not forget his mission. He frowned and ordered: "There are not many Eighth Route Army troops on the high ground. This time we all attack together, but we must divide the troops into three groups and attack the high ground from different directions. Disperse the troops on the high ground."
The strength and firepower of the Eighth Route Army!”
On the high ground, the position was held, but no one showed the joy of victory on their faces.
In order to kill a cavalry squadron launched by the Japs, the troops suffered too many casualties.
Not only one platoon was wiped out, but other units also suffered heavy casualties from the enemy's offensive firepower. Coupled with the loss of machine gunners, the two squads were absolutely indispensable.
"Battal Commander, it seems that the Japanese are about to attack again. They don't even give us time to breathe. They are really cruel!"
Rong Jun replied solemnly: "They are in a hurry to reinforce the army."
"If something happens to the military, they will definitely take responsibility. Can they not fight tooth and nail?"
Then he turned his attention to the subordinates around him, hesitated and ordered: "Comrades, the task given to us by the regiment headquarters is to block the Japanese reinforcements until dawn. Our fourth battalion may have to explain it here today, but the military order is
Military orders must be implemented without any room for negotiation!"
"Now I am ordering the entire battalion, starting with myself, to hold their positions to the letter. Everyone must stay in position. Without my order, no one can take a step back, otherwise military law will be enforced!"
Just when everyone was preparing to fight, the voice of team leader Wang Ping suddenly sounded behind them.
"Not only will your battalion commander persevere with you to the end, but so will I, the regimental commander!"
"Comrades, we have captured the military column. Four million kilograms of grain are enough to feed our entire regiment for several years. Now, the political commissar is organizing fellow villagers to rush to transport this grain. We must buy them time!"
"From now on, I will defend the position with everyone, and we will stay where we are!"
Not only was Rong Jun not happy, but he reminded him with a worried look on his face: "Captain, why are you here? It's too dangerous here!"
"I came just because of the danger!" Wang Ping answered without thinking.
"If you don't come, will your four battalions really be forced to confess here and the whole army will be destroyed?"
"Not only am I here, I also brought reinforcements! Take your time and tell me about the situation on the battlefield!"
In less than a minute, Wang Ping understood the situation on the battlefield. The Japanese cavalry, which consisted of less than 200 people, seemed to be ready for battle and looked eager to try.
"Captain, the Japs are about to attack, how will we fight next?" Seeing Wang Ping frowning, Rong Jun asked quickly.
"Of course, kill them!" Wang Ping replied without thinking, his words full of murderous intent.
"To wipe out our companies and platoons, we must pay a price."
"Order, the heavy machine gun company, as a platoon unit, cooperate with the infantry to kill the Japanese cavalry who attack us in three directions!"
"The heavy machine gun platoon of the second battalion, in cooperation with the heavy machine gun platoon of the fourth battalion, will kill the heavy machine gun squad brought by the Japanese Cavalry Brigade for me!"
"After the battle begins, only four battalions can counterattack. All other troops are hiding and waiting for my counterattack order!"
"I want to kill the Japanese cavalry brigade in one battle and avenge the sacrificed soldiers!"
