The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression Begins in Songhu

Chapter 260 The Harvest Begins
When leading the charge, Anne shouted the order to "blind the horses".

At a distance of about two hundred and fifty to two hundred meters ahead, the two hundred or so Japanese soldiers had no time to set up a defense line.

They were either lying in the ditches by the roadside or hiding behind some carriages and cars, and they hurriedly opened fire at this side.

The Japanese soldiers in front and behind them are also coming to support them at full speed.

However, they had fought hard for a whole day before breaking through here, and they were all exhausted. Their legs could not outrun a four-legged warhorse, and they could not even outrun a mule.

Among the more than 200 Japanese devils in front of them, there was still one Type 92 heavy machine gun and three Type 96 light machine guns.

In addition, the Japanese soldiers were very good at shooting, and bullets were fired at this side densely at once; the charge had just begun, and two or three brothers were shot down from their horses without a sound.

He rushed forward another thirty or forty steps, and several grenades fired at Little Melon from a grenade launcher also fell into the herd and exploded.

Amidst the flying shrapnel, several war horses were hit and their front legs went limp, causing them to fall to the ground, and the brothers on them were immediately thrown out.

If you are thrown away during such a high-speed charge, you will be half-crippled if not dead.

Faced with such a situation, the only thing Annie could do was to bend down and lie on the horse's back, using this method to minimize the risk of being exposed to the enemy's guns.

At the same time, he no longer cared about his beloved horse, Guagua, and kept whipping it on the buttocks with a whip.

Let Gua Gua run as hard as he could, and the earth kept moving backwards under him, so that the warhorse could run faster and faster and rush into the Japanese army.

Behind her, Hu Biao and more than 500 others were all making the same move.

Because they know that these are the casualties and costs that must be borne in the process of charging forward.

After a full-scale charge, Annie soon rushed to a distance of less than 50 meters from the Japanese soldiers. At this time, they could finally take action.

It seemed as if he wanted to vent the anger that had been pent up in his heart during the previous charge.

The voice that Anne shouted seemed to resound throughout the battlefield at this moment: "Fire!"

Before the voice came out, she had already sat up straight from the horse's back, picked up the MP28 submachine gun hanging around her neck, and started firing wildly at the Japanese in front of her.

Hu Biao and other personnel were only slightly slower in firing, at most half a second.

They all sat up straight and opened fire at the Japanese at the fastest speed, not saving bullets at all.

It should be noted that this is based on the simple principle that a cavalry charge requires a sharp arrow to tear through the opponent's defense line.

The group of people rushing to the front now are all holding automatic or semi-automatic weapons.

Among them, there are 4 light machine guns, 37 submachine guns of various models, 62 Mauser pistols, and 7 other types of pistols.

When these weapons opened fire at full force, a fierce round of firepower immediately broke out.

Even on galloping horses, the accuracy of everyone's shooting was greatly affected; thanks to the sufficiently high firepower density, the effect was still extremely good.

They knocked down more than a dozen Japanese soldiers in front of them in a short time.

Among them, the most threatening Type 92 heavy machine gun, which was mounted on a horse-drawn carriage, was targeted by many people at the same time, and they all fired bullets at it at the same time.

In an instant, the entire heavy machine gun team was shot into pieces.

In addition, there were even more Japanese soldiers who were beaten so badly by the sudden burst of intensive firepower that they could not even raise their heads, causing their firepower density to be reduced by 70% at once.

As for such crazy firing, Hu Biao and his men would use up all the bullets in their submachine guns and Mauser pistols in a very short time.

What if changing magazines and loading bullets on a galloping horse is more troublesome? I can only say that there is no need to worry at all.

Taking advantage of this short period of fire suppression, Annie had rushed to a place only a dozen meters away from the Japanese.

He released the submachine gun that had just emptied a magazine, and the next second he pulled out the samurai sword 'Ichimonji Yama Toriga' that was stuck on the saddle with his right hand.

The same action also appeared in Hu Biao and others.

However, the cold weapons they picked up were varied, including broadswords, sabers, large Guandaos, red tassel spears, dung forks, etc.

A major among the Japanese soldiers also shouted, "Bayonets!"

Following this order, the Japanese soldiers put their bayonets on their Type 38 rifles and rushed out from their hiding places holding these spear-like weapons that were taller than themselves.

But before they could stand together and form a small battle formation relying on each other, a large group of cavalry had already rushed to their side.

After suffering many casualties along the way, Annie, Hu Biao and others finally managed to survive until the golden moment of harvesting the Japanese devils.

The massacre of the devils has finally officially begun...

******
With a cry of "die!", a Japanese soldier, a plaster flag on his rifle, signifying his status as an elite sergeant, stood in the roadside ditch and thrust his bayonet at Annie's beloved horse, Guagua. Unfortunately, even this elite Japanese sergeant, with his excellent bayonet skills, could still stab the Nationalist soldiers to the ground before they could react.

However, facing the warhorse that had already reached full speed, the assassination speed was still too slow.

The bayonet in his hand was just about to thrust out when a bright flash of knife light appeared before his eyes, and he felt himself magically rolling and flying.

It was not until he saw a familiar headless body with a smooth wound on the neck and blood gushing out of it below that he realized he had been beheaded.

"What a beautiful sword strike!" This was the last bit of consciousness in the head of the Japanese sergeant.

The devil's thoughts before his death were not wrong, because to cut off a neck with a samurai sword really requires considerable skill and strength.

Otherwise, not only would it be impossible to cut through the hard spine, but the samurai sword would also bend on the spot.

In any case, few people would use a samurai sword to behead people in normal combat.

The reason why Annie did this was simply to vent her frustration at the continuous casualties among her brothers as she rushed over.

After having a head chopped off by a knife, the girl felt her whole body getting hot.

Because when the knife was swung and passed by, a Japanese soldier's head suddenly flew off, and a large amount of blood suddenly spurted out. The feeling was so fucking cool.

Fortunately, in the following time, she no longer pursued such a wild but somewhat strenuous decapitation fighting method.

Instead, while relying on the speed of the horse to rush forward, he swung the samurai sword in his hand diagonally. When he passed by the Japanese, the sharp blade could easily cut a deep and long wound on the Japanese with the help of the horse's momentum.

When the Japanese military doctors were asked to suture an injured person, the workload was so heavy that it was despairing.

The premise is that these devils still have a chance to be rescued and sutured by their military doctors.

When Annie, who was leading the way, used such a simple yet efficient fighting method to knock down the Japanese soldiers one by one, Hu Biao and others behind her were naturally not idle either.

Although from time to time some brothers were knocked off their horses by the Japanese bayonets and bullets.

But in most cases, they relied on their speed and superior position to knock down one Japanese soldier after another. The process was as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.

Even if they failed to control the charge well, the horses and mules would collide directly with the Japanese.

But even a mule charging at high speed could still knock the Japanese soldiers flying on the spot.

Before these unfortunate devils could struggle to get up from the ground, the dense hooves in front of them grew bigger and bigger, making it impossible for them to escape.

These devils would have no idea how many times they were stepped on before dying in immense pain. It would have been easier for them to be hacked or stabbed to death by their opponents.

Although the above content is a lot, it only happens in one or two minutes.

After using the sharp blade to deeply cut the bodies of several Japanese soldiers, Annie was suddenly surprised to find that there was no target in front of her.

It turned out that they had already killed through the middle-level Japanese troops without realizing it.

There was no intention of turning back and attacking the Japanese again; while the Japanese reinforcements in front and behind had not arrived, Annie led the team behind her to move away quickly.

After rushing forward more than a hundred meters, she looked back.

It can be seen that the more than 200 Japanese soldiers who had hurriedly gathered at this location were reduced by more than half after one attack.

Including the casualties during the charge, about forty or fifty of them were killed in the battle.

With just a casualty ratio of one to three, the previous battle can be considered a great victory.

More importantly, no matter whether it was the dozens of Japanese soldiers who survived in any location, or the Japanese soldiers who came to support from the front and back, their faces were now filled with indescribable horror.

Therefore, if such a charge happens a few more times, even the most stubborn Japanese will lose their nerves.

With this thought in mind, he rushed forward for a distance, and was out of the effective range of the weapons in the hands of the Japanese.

Annie grabbed Guagua and gave a new order: "Everyone dismount and wait for 20 minutes to rest. Then we will charge the Japs again. They can't escape today."

Suddenly, thunderous cheers rang out from the mouths of the brothers.

At this moment, there was an indescribable enthusiasm and fearlessness on the faces of each of them.

In this extremely terrible era, the people of this nation are actually not that cowardly and numb. They just lack a leader.

Once someone takes the lead, they will burst out with terrifying courage and strength...
