Wei Mingyang looked at the seven or eight Japanese who were rushing towards him, and listened to Xiao Lei's anxious shouts, which were all trembling.

Knowing that the fear in this female reporter's heart may have reached the critical point, although she could not turn back, she whispered: "I'm here! I'm fighting!"

If you are scared, just close your eyes for a while! Just a few dozen times will be enough.”

Xiao Lei was really scared. She closed her eyes obediently and counted: "One, two, three..."

Then I heard the sound of gunshots "Pop! Pah!" coming from beside me.

Wei Mingyang ordered: "Lu Fei! Yang Dazhu! Fight the Japanese!"

This time he had to use the weapons he brought with him.

"Pah! Pah!" The firing speed of the automatic rifle is of course much faster than that of the Chinese formal rifle and Type 38.

Smith was using a Thompson submachine gun, and he brought four magazines. Including the magazine loaded on the gun, there were a total of 150 rounds of ammunition.

The Thompson submachine gun can reach a speed of 720 rounds per minute when fired continuously, which is very enjoyable to shoot.

But now that there were no supplies around him, Captain Smith could only fire single shots honestly.

The effective range of this kind of gun is two hundred meters. After the Japanese cavalry entered the shooting range, Smith fired.

Originally, he was able to hit a target as big as a Japanese war horse within a hundred meters without missing a beat.

But when he actually faced the Japanese cavalry, Smith realized where the greatest danger lay when the infantry faced the cavalry:

With the momentum of a cavalryman, a soldier like him who has been training can still shoot and fire calmly when the enemy is a hundred meters away.

After the Japanese cavalry rushed within a hundred meters, they looked at the Japanese soldiers riding high above them, and the shadows of the charging horses came over them like mountains.

He could no longer maintain a calm mood while shooting, his heart was beating wildly and his hands were shaking.

The blood surged up, and my eyes were a little blurry, so I couldn't see clearly where the Japanese were in front of me.

The result is that the more anxious you are, the less accurate you will be.

All I could hear in my ears was the sound of countless horses' hooves hitting the ground. It was really like thunder!

Fortunately, Wei Mingyang changed his target in time. Although the few Japs at the front had already climbed onto the bridge, they finally stopped on the bridge.

After the Japanese fell from the horse, the horse still didn't realize it, and continued to charge towards him, and then ran along the river bank.

At this time, Xiao Lei was still counting with her eyes closed: "Seventeen, eighteen..."

Wei Mingyang smiled and said: "You can open your eyes now! The Japanese at the front is dead."

Xiao Lei opened her eyes and saw seven or eight war horses rushing across the stone bridge, and screamed "Ah!" in fright.

After screaming first, I realized that there were no Japanese riders on those war horses. They were empty horses.

Then he blushed and stopped talking, looking around sheepishly.

No one is paying attention!

Only then did I feel better.

The main direction of the Japs' attack in this round is the center: the center is still as safe as a rock, but there are forty or fifty Japs cavalry on the left and right going down the river.

Although their speed had slowed down at this time, the location where these Japanese soldiers chose to wade across the river was still five or six hundred meters away from Wei Mingyang's defense line.

The Japanese cavalry obviously wanted to speed up their horses through a certain distance after crossing the river.

The distance of 500 meters immediately made the soldiers in the guard platoon dumbfounded: even if they were fired from such a distance by machine guns, they would only be able to hit it by luck.

When Wei Mingyang saw that the Japs crossing the river were beginning to gather again, he immediately fired up his mortar. This time, he did not ask Lu Fei to reload.

Operate the gun with one hand and hold the ammunition with the other.

After the first shell was fired, a fragrant breeze came around.

Xiao Lei held a cannonball in both hands: "I'll do it! I can do it too!"

She had already observed carefully from the sidelines and knew very well that Lu Fei's work had no technical content at all.

"Is your foot okay?"

"You only need to use your hands to shoot a gun, and you don't need to use your feet." Xiao Lei replied domineeringly.

A second cannonball was thrown into the barrel.

Wei Mingyang fired two cannons on the left and two cannons on the right.

As soon as he saw three or four Japanese cavalry gathered together, he would fire immediately.

The Japanese were crossing the river at 500 meters, so Xiao Lei didn't think it was urgent.

After firing a few shots, Wei Mingyang suddenly said: "Stop for now."

He had been paying attention to the situation on the entire battlefield and saw the Japanese cavalry in the middle coming up again.

He picked up the automatic rifle in his hand and shot at the Japanese who had rushed to the stone bridge.

"Pah! Pah! Pah!" Three consecutive shots knocked down the three fish that slipped through the net.

Then they opened fire on the Japanese who were following them.

With the first round of training just now when we saw the Japanese charging towards us, Smith, Stilwell, and Delise have obviously grown up.

At this time, Smith no longer dared to continue firing single shots, and the Thompson submachine gun began to fire continuously.

The bullets hit the Japanese war horses. The horses struggled and fell in front of the stone bridge.

Stilwell and Delise were able to hedge against the Japs who were closer, and their shooting became much more stable.

This is the difference between veterans who have actually gone to the battlefield and recruits who have just entered the battlefield.

As long as you get used to the momentum of the Japanese war horses charging towards you and are no longer overwhelmed by their momentum, your shooting accuracy will suddenly increase.

Wei Mingyang shouted "Hello". These fallen horses could also block the Japanese's subsequent horse charges.

By this time Smith had loaded the last magazine.

It has been less than five minutes since the Japs began charging, and more than half of the Takahashi Cavalry Regiment has suffered casualties.

Captain Shimatani Saburo, who was now commanding the attack of the entire regiment, hesitated whether to retreat.

There are indeed less than twenty enemies in their regiment, but the defense line established by these twenty people is like an iron wall.

More than 300 cavalrymen were unable to charge through, and more than 200 Japanese soldiers had already fallen.

If we continue to fight like this, maybe the entire cavalry regiment will not be able to complete the mission even if it is finished.

Kawasaki Saburoichi Aviation Captain, who was high in the air, could see everything on the battlefield clearly.

It saw more than 300 cavalry rushing towards the defense line established by a dozen people on the other side of the stone bridge.

He also saw the mortar on the other side of the stone bridge that made him frightened. Once again, his performance did not disappoint.

The explosion knocked the Japanese cavalry regiment off their feet, which Captain Kawasaki Taiyi had expected.

For someone who can blow up dozens of planes with mortars, blowing up a cavalry regiment is no problem at all.

However, Captain Kawasaki Taiyi still has full confidence in the cavalry wing: there are only a few dozen aircraft.

There are more than 300 Japs in the cavalry regiment. With their numbers, they can kill three Americans who are more than a dozen remnants of the national army.

The situation on the battlefield was as it expected: the cavalry regiment soon suffered more than half of its casualties, but the cavalry had successfully rushed to the mortar less than 200 meters away.
Chapter completed!
