    These Eighth Route Army soldiers are very brave, but due to long-term malnutrition, most of them are thin and their physical strength is far less than that of the Japanese army opposite them.

    Fortunately, they have a geographical advantage and attack from top to bottom, which makes up for this shortcoming to a certain extent.  Relying on their enthusiasm, hundreds of soldiers of the independent regiment stalled the Japanese army's advance through hand-to-hand combat.

    Seeing this scene, Li Yunlong's blood surged up, and he jumped out of the trench with an angry roar. With the soldiers of the guard company, he rushed directly towards the little Japanese's troops.  Zhao Gang, who was behind him, couldn't hold him back.

    On both sides of the independent regiment¡¯s position, Gatling heavy machine guns are still playing their role.  However, in order not to accidentally injure their comrades, they could not shoot at the Japanese troops who had already rushed to the position, but could only shoot at the Japanese troops charging upward continuously from behind.  This can at least alleviate the pressure on the front of the independent group to a certain extent.

    Suematsu Shigeshi, commander of the Japanese 114th Division, looked through the telescope at the two sides fighting on the front.  In his telescope, he could clearly see the bayonets going in and out of the soldiers' bodies, and then brought out red blood, which scattered in the air and was frozen into ice when it fell on the ground.

    A large number of Japanese troops fell to the ground under the fire of heavy machine guns on both wings.  The entire hillside turned into a morgue for the Japanese army.

    But the corners of Suematsu Shigeshi's mouth kept rising, because he knew that if the current trend continued, the enemy's frontal position in Xiongfeng Ridge would inevitably be broken.  At that time, even if the two wings cannot be attacked, they don't have to worry.

    After crossing Xiongfeng Ridge, they can support the 16th Division.  But Suematsu Shigeshi didn't know that the Japanese 16th Division he had always wanted to rescue was now loyal to His Majesty the Emperor.

    As for the Gatling machine gun positions on both wings, Suematsu Shigeshi was already thinking that when the enemy's position was captured, he would capture those heavy machine guns and transport them to the arsenal for them to study carefully.

    Such fierce firepower is rare even on some advanced heavy machine guns in Europe.

    At this time, the barrels of those Gatling heavy machine guns could not be cooled due to long-term shooting. Basically, the barrels had begun to turn red from the root, like a red-hot soldering iron.

    There is no doubt that if such high-intensity shooting continues, these barrels may be melted by the high temperature generated by continuous shooting.  At that time, it will completely lose its combat capability.

    But at this time, the Gatling heavy machine guns on both wings could not stop shooting, because once they stopped shooting, a steady stream of Japanese soldiers rushing up from the rear would overwhelm their frontal positions.

    The fierce fighting continued on a front line of several hundred meters.  Both sides seemed to have returned to the cold weapon age, fighting there with their bodies and the weapons in their hands.

    Soldiers of the Eighth Route Army continued to make heroic sacrifices, and those Japanese troops who wanted to break through the defense line also paid an extremely heavy price.

    The biggest negative effect of their charge regardless of the cost is extremely high casualties.  But the Japanese army was still breathing a sigh of relief at this time, not caring about any casualties. They just continued to charge forward, and then they were knocked down by bullets, or fell under bayonets and swords, and then they stopped.

    Li Yunlong was covered in blood at this time. He and the soldiers from the guard company had been fighting with the Japanese soldiers on this position for more than ten minutes.  A lot of the blood on his uniform belonged to Japanese soldiers, and a lot of it belonged to soldiers of the Independence Regiment.

    The sword in his hand was also covered in blood. In such a fierce fight, the sword made of fine steel even had its blade curled.

    But the Japanese troops are still rushing forward. There are too many of them. Although the battle line here is only a few hundred meters long, there are thousands of Japanese troops rushing forward.  It was several times the number of soldiers in their independent regiment.

    This is not a mission that can be accomplished by relying on bravery, because the Japanese troops on the opposite side are crazy and they are all ghost soldiers who are not afraid of death.

    But at this moment, a roar came from behind the independent regiment's position.

    Li Yunlong chopped a little devil to the ground, raised his head and looked at the sky above his head.  He thought it was the sound of muffled thunder running away, but at this time the setting sun was like blood, and the sun had begun to set towards the mountains to the west.  Where can I see the shadow of dark clouds.

    "It's not thunder, what's the noise, so loud? Is it an avalanche?" Li Yunlong asked.

    While he was speaking, the thunderous voice was getting closer and closer.  Only then did Li Yunlong realize that the thunderous sound came from behind.Come.

    Not only them, but the Japanese soldiers who were fighting also heard the thunderous sound, and the sound was getting closer and closer.

    As the sound got closer and closer, the two sides who were fighting in front subconsciously stopped their movements.

    They all subconsciously looked towards the back of Xiongfeng Ridge, which was the direction from which the sound came.

    "Rumble!! Rumble!!" The sound was getting closer and closer, as if it was echoing in their ears.

    At this moment, the soldiers of the independent regiment in the rear suddenly cheered.

    "Cavalry regiment, the cavalry regiment is here to support us."

    This sound soon followed the rumble of horse hooves and reached Li Yunlong's ears.

    It was at this time that Li Yunlong saw a group of cavalry holding sabers and riding high-jun horses rushing up on the hillside behind them. Under the leadership of Zheng Fei, they rushed directly towards them.

    "Give Way!!!"

    Zheng Fei rushed forward, shouting loudly, asking the soldiers of the Independent Regiment to clear the way for them to charge.

    After their cavalry rushed to the hillside, their speed began to increase significantly.  Accelerating on the relatively flat hillside of Xiongfeng Ridge is perfect for these cavalry who use impact force to fight.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
