On the mountain beam, the battalion commander Feng Changzhi ran towards the position of Wu Zijian's 5th Company with his waist bent, followed by Liu Shu. Although their position was at the far end, they obviously saw the situation below. The situation of the national army in the ambush circle was beyond the expectation of the second battalion to set up an ambush, and the three commanders needed to immediately re-finalize whether to fight or not to fight and how to fight.

Liu Shu panted and spoke first: "The devil is a cavalryman, and it is not clear if there are heavy soldiers following behind, so you can't open fire to expose yourself!" ”

Wu Zijian glared at the instructor's face, and choked back with a word: "What's wrong with the cavalry?" Let's be condescending, are we afraid that little Japan's horse will fly up with wings? Call me! ”

Unexpectedly, Feng Changzhi suddenly said: "I'm afraid it's too late to fight!" ”

People looked under the mountain beam, only to see the Japanese cavalry chasing closer and closer, suddenly put away their guns and pulled out their sabers, the slender sabers were dazzling in the sun, and the well-trained cavalry quickly changed from the pursuit column just now to several columns of charging columns by adjusting the speed! Then, like a whirlwind, he urged the horse to dance the knife and accelerated to launch the impact.

Wu Zijian understood the meaning of the battalion commander's words: It is impossible to fire down the mountain, and in less than a minute, the devil cavalry will be mixed with the fleeing friendly troops, and what awaits the friendly troops will be ruthless killing!

Liu Shu also understood, he secretly sighed, and said calmly: "I really can't fight now, shooting will accidentally injure friendly soldiers." ”

……

The Jin soldiers under the mountain beam were still desperately fleeing. In the canopy of the truck, Xiao Junping held a pistol in one hand and the guardrail at the rear of the car in the other, looking behind, and the bumpy truck almost shook him down several times. Previously, he turned his head from time to time and shouted to the female signal soldier in the carriage: Hurry up, the devil cavalry is catching up! And the female soldiers, who were also bumped around, knocked desperately on the driver's building after hearing this: Hurry up, drive quickly! Some of the voices already had a crying tone in them.

However, a dilapidated truck doesn't travel much faster than a person on a potholed road. Seeing that the Japanese cavalry was approaching and drew their sabers one after another, Xiao Junping even saw the faces of the front-row cavalry. He raised his pistol and fired at the nearest Japanese cavalry, but after two shots, the bullets ran out, Xiao Junping gritted his teeth and shouted to the female soldier one last time:

"Smash the radio station and burn the codebook!"

Immediately, he jumped out of the carriage and shouted to the routs around him: "Don't run, the devil cavalry is coming, shoot quickly!" Seeing this, a few soldiers began to turn and shoot, while many more ignored the orders of the strange captain officer and continued to run. Xiao Junping grabbed the gun of a soldier who was about to run past him, and shouted almost against the other party's face:

"Stop, don't run!"

The deserter was stunned for a moment, simply let go of the gun and gave it to Xiao Junping, and ran away empty-handed. Angry, Xiao Junping picked up his gun and was about to shoot at the back of the deserter, but in the end he turned the muzzle of the gun and pulled the trigger on the Japanese cavalry who rushed up.

The advance of the cavalry rushed into the rout.

……

On the ambush position of the Second Battalion of the Eighth Route Army, no order was issued, and more and more commanders and fighters understood the situation on the main road below, and their faces became anxious and confused.

Wu Zijian swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said to the battalion commander: "Old Feng, the gun can't be opened, get on the bayonet and rush down!" ”

Liu Shu was shocked when he heard this, and he roared at Wu Zijian desperately: "What nonsense are you talking about?!" We are here to set up an ambush, there is no absolute necessity, no bayonets! ”

Feng Changzhi glanced at the two of them, then at the bottom of the mountain, waved his hand and ordered: "Get on the bayonet!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Li Tianlin, the commander of the 5th Company, who had long been unable to hold back and had never dared to interject, shouted to the soldiers of the 5th Company on the side: "Pass down, don't fire, put on the bayonet, and prepare to charge!" "The order was passed down one after another, and the soldiers drew their bayonets and inserted them into their rifles, and some pulled out their machetes on their backs; The * that unscrewed the lid was re-screwed back on, and the LMG buried his head deep into the handle in disappointment.

Liu Shu grabbed Feng Changzhi's shoulder in a hurry: "Battalion commander, I don't agree to charge, the devil is a cavalry, there are many people, and there will be great casualties if you rush down!" ”

Feng Changzhi didn't move the instructor's arm, but said with a stern expression: "There is no way, I can only fight!" Friendly soldiers are hunted down, and they can't be saved without help. ”

Liu Shu opened his mouth and wanted to say something more, but in the end he couldn't speak.

Wu Zijian had already pulled out a ghost-headed broadsword from behind him: "Instructor, you take 7 companies and all the machine guns, stay in the position to monitor the battlefield; Lao Feng, let's rush down! ”

The battalion commander did not have a broadsword, he asked a soldier for a bayonet-mounted seventy-nine rifle, and then said to the messenger next to him: "Send a flare!" ”

……

More than 100 horses of the Iwata cavalry squadron rampaged into the ranks of the rout, and the Japanese soldiers with superb riding skills leaned over and brandished their sabers to slash, and wherever the blades went, the blood of the Jin army burst out, and even the heads were in different places.

Only Xiao Junping and a few brave officers and soldiers were still fighting desperately against the Japanese army, while most of the Jin officers and soldiers scattered and fled. Xiao Junping shot a Japanese cavalryman off his horse with the rifle he had just arrived, and was about to pull the bolt again, when another cavalryman pounced on him, Xiao Junping dodged to the side, but was tripped by a corpse, he found that a saber dropped by the Japanese army was close at hand, so he dropped the rifle and grabbed the saber to fight with the other cavalry.

At the same time, Iwata himself led a small team of men and horses to the truck, which had just hit a rock on the side of the road in a panic and turned off the fire, and the driver immediately jumped out of the car and fled for his life. In the back canopy, several female communication soldiers were hurriedly destroying the radio station, a female soldier smashed a military horse lamp, threw a code book into the lamp oil, just trembling and striking a match, Iwata rode to the rear of the carriage, saw this pulled out a pistol and shot the female soldier, the female soldier fell, and the match happened to ignite the lamp oil, and the canopy suddenly burst into flames. The rest of the female soldiers were too frightened to dodge, and Iwata ordered several Japanese cavalrymen to jump into the canopy and drag the two out of the car amid the screams of the female soldiers.

Xiao Junping, who was in the distance, saw this scene and hurriedly brandished his saber and ran this way. In the confusion, she pulled out a pistol from her waist and hit a Japanese cavalryman who was dragging her by the calf, the Japanese cavalry fell, but more cavalry continued to lean towards her, and the frightened female soldier held the pistol to her temple, hesitated for a moment, closed her eyes and pulled the trigger.

Smoke billowed from the truck compartment, and the female signal soldiers who had not been dragged out were choked and forced to jump out of the car, and more than a dozen Japanese cavalrymen dismounted, laughing and laughing wildly and grabbed them; Even as the battle was still going on, they began to tear the uniforms of the female soldiers with impunity, and one of the female soldiers was stripped of her upper body in an instant.

Xiao Junping, who was rushing over, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this scene.
