More than eighty cavalrymen were galloping on the road. The sound of horse hooves resounded like thunder and could be heard clearly from more than ten miles away.
"It's the cavalry, the little devil really sent them here!" After quickly setting up the last booby trap, Li Haofeng rushed back to the position, shouting as he rushed.
"The fire squad is responsible for three light machine guns, each squad is responsible for one, and I am responsible for one. A deputy shooter will load the bullets for me and prepare for battle!"
"All machine guns can only fire under my orders. Without orders, the little devils can't fire even if they get in front of us!"
"All riflemen are free to shoot. If any enemy rushes through the obstacle area, just greet them with grenades!"
"Yuan Qingfeng, add up all the grenades, fire freely, and hit wherever there are more Japanese!"
As soon as the command was issued, the bustling position suddenly became quiet.
Five machine guns were set up in the firing position and ready to fire. The deputy gunner held the crooked handle with loaded bullets and stood by, ready to change the gun for the machine gunner at any time.
"Rumble..."
The sound of horse hooves reaching their ears became louder and louder, and when the road under their feet began to tremble slightly, Chen Bing next to them suddenly shouted.
"Platoon leader, the Japanese cavalry are coming, so fast!"
The cavalrymen who were just a black spot at the end of the road rushed two hundred meters away in the blink of an eye, revealing their ferocious faces.
"They stopped!" Chen Bing continued to shout.
This was also the first time that Li Hao actually faced off against the cavalry. Although he had an idea of how to deal with the cavalry, he had never really tried it after all.
So he couldn't help but start to feel nervous.
The performance of the Japanese cavalry shocked him so much.
More than eighty cavalrymen all stopped in just a few seconds and formed an assault formation ready to attack at any time.
Especially when he saw them pull out the command sword together, hold it in their hands, and raise it above their heads, their uniform movements once again proved to Li Hao that they were a truly elite force.
Taking a deep breath, Li Hao forced himself to calm down, and then ordered: "Everyone, be ready for battle. Only listen to my orders before firing. Isn't it just a group of cavalry? There is nothing to be afraid of!"
"Rumble..."
The cavalry that had stopped for less than two minutes moved. Someone held a saber in his hand and raised it high above his head, as if he was ready to slash at the enemy with his saber.
Someone put the saber back into the scabbard, then raised the loaded carbine with one hand, ready to shoot at any time.
The speed was getting faster and faster, and he rushed towards Li Hao with a roar.
Obviously, they did not pay attention to the roadblocks made of trees on the road, and prepared to kill the Eighth Route Army in front of them in one assault.
"Stay still, don't panic, only follow my orders before shooting!" Li Hao shouted at the top of his voice to comfort everyone.
The force of the cavalry charge was too great. The roaring hoofbeats, the trembling road, and the cold light reflected from the sabers all shocked everyone's hearts and made it impossible for everyone to stay calm.
Li Hao knew that only the sound of gunfire and victory could calm everyone down at this time.
He frowned and started giving orders.
"Shoot men first, shoot horses first, all machine guns fire - riflemen shoot freely!"
"Da da da~"
As soon as the order came out, he started to hold the fire. The crooked handle in his hand instantly spit out a string of bullets, and the muzzle of the gun also sprayed out a bunch of orange-red gunpowder.
The five crooked guns next to them fired one after another, and the six crooked guns lined up in a row fired dozens of bullets forward in an instant.
Distributed in a fan shape, they formed a net on the road, whizzing towards the Japanese cavalry rushing over, without any loopholes in their firepower.
"Rumble..."
A dull crash sounded on the road, and the first few cavalrymen were beaten to pieces on the spot. Blood gushed out like a fountain, and then they fell to the ground together with the horses and men.
The cavalry behind did not stop, and were not even affected in any way. As if the dead cavalry in front were not their comrades, they waved their sabers and continued to charge forward.
What's more, they stepped on the bodies of their fallen comrades and charged forward.
The attack distance was only more than a hundred meters, and his assault speed had reached its extreme. He could charge forward with all his strength and reach the sky in seven or eight seconds to reach the Eighth Route Army's position, then chop off their heads and defeat them.
On the Chinese battlefield, they used this method to defeat the enemy time and time again. They were so overwhelming that they had never encountered an opponent.
They were confident, and the result was the same when facing the Eighth Route Army.
Even though the number of machine guns equipped by the Eighth Route Army was far more than I imagined, they also caused a lot of casualties to the troops.
"Kill them... Warriors, keep charging forward, chop off the enemy's heads, and avenge the fallen warriors!" the squadron leader shouted while waving his saber, his face full of anger.
"Da da da... boom..."
The intensive machine gun fire did not suppress the increasingly louder sound of horse hooves.
The road beneath my feet was shaking more and more violently.
Cavalrymen and horses were constantly beaten to death, fell to the ground with a plop, and were trampled into pulp by the following cavalry.
But these cavalrymen seemed to be endlessly killing them.
When those in front died, the ones behind immediately took up their place, and continued to push forward with the follow-up troops.
In the blink of an eye, they were in front of the roadblock.
"Bang bang bang..."
The cavalry charging at the front also fired.
The cavalry clamped the horse with both legs, holding the reins in one hand and the flat-end rifle in the other. After taking a slight aim, he pulled the trigger.
When shooting from a constantly shaking horse, even the rifle cannot hold still. The hit rate of the bullets fired is definitely not high, but the actual hit rate is very high.
The soldiers were hiding behind the bunker, but three people were still shot and fell screaming behind the bunker, including a machine gunner.
Waibazi, who was shouting at Zheng Huan, misfired on the spot and fell next to him.
"Enter the assistant shooter, a soldier went over to load bullets for him. The machine gun fire must not be interrupted!" Li Hao shouted anxiously.
Seeing that many soldiers' faces had turned pale, and when facing the approaching cavalry, especially the sabers they held in their hands, they began to tremble involuntarily, they immediately comforted them.
"Don't panic, we have killed more than 20 Japs cavalry, and the remaining ones will definitely not be able to break through the roadblock area in front. Moreover, I have prepared 20 Japs for them in the roadblock area, which is enough for the little Japs to drink a pot. , everyone must believe me!”
"Hold still, aim and shoot!"
"Next, I'm going to send all the little devil cavalry to hell!"
The overwhelming little devil was stunned, and put away his initial contempt.
Facing the criss-crossing tree trunks and branches on the ground, they had to slow down their attack speed, and then carefully continue their attack.
Because once their speed increased, the tree trunks on the road would turn into snagging ropes, tripping their horses to the ground.
"The attack speed of the Japanese cavalry has slowed down. Hit them hard and kill them!" Li Hao seized the opportunity and shouted.
