Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

The Japs were very fast, charging forward with their bayonets flashing coldly.

But there was still no movement on the Eighth Route Army's position, and no one rushed up to fight them with bayonets.

In the eyes of the Japanese, the Eighth Route Army was frightened and at a loss as to what to do after their sudden charge.

This further strengthened the devils' determination.

Sudden……

In the trenches at the front of the Eighth Route Army, hundreds of light and heavy machine guns were set up, and artillery could be vaguely seen in the distance.

"Nani?!"

The Japanese were startled. Could it be that the Eighth Route Army had no moral principles?

"Ta-ta-ta-ta!"

"Boom!"

At the moment when the Japs were stunned, the Eighth Route Army opened fire.

Li Yunlong gathered all the machine guns and artillery of the three regiments and waited for this moment.

The Independent Regiment, the New 1st Regiment, and the New 2nd Regiment had fought many battles with Lin Feng in the past, and had captured a lot of weapons and equipment, especially Li Yunlong's Independent Regiment. Lin Tian came from the Independent Regiment, so when he got the good stuff, he naturally gave it to the Independent Regiment first.

Therefore, after Lin Tian's several rounds of weapons assistance, as well as Li Yunlong's own weapons captured in battles, the Independent Regiment has now become the Eighth Route Army unit with the strongest firepower except for the First Division, even surpassing the Japanese.

In one encounter, hundreds of Japanese were killed.

107mm rocket launchers, mortars, Type 75 infantry guns, Shanxi-made mm mountain guns, and Type mountain guns were now frantically bombarding the Japanese charge formation.

On the other side, Wang Shun was responsible for encircling the Japanese on the flank of Li Yunlong and others.

At this moment, Wang Shun's troops also began to attack the Japanese who launched a massive charge.

Although Wang Shun only had a reinforced battalion of troops, his firepower was terrifying.

Hundreds of 107mm rocket launchers fired at the same time, and machine guns fired even more intensively. Bullets and rockets fell on the Japs like rain, and wherever they went, there was wailing and blood and flesh flying.

……

"What? The Eighth Route Army didn't engage in hand-to-hand combat with us, and they still have so much ammunition? How is that possible?!"

"Shout out, tell the Eighth Route Army to accept a decisive battle with the Imperial Warriors!"

Masao Kimitsu looked at the tragic scene through a telescope, totally unable to believe it, and gave orders to his men.

"Eighth Route Army on the opposite side, we, the brave and fearless warriors of the Great Japanese Locust Army, are challenging you to a decisive battle between samurai. You should maintain the demeanor of a samurai and accept our hand-to-hand combat!" The subordinates were helpless and raised a large loudspeaker and shouted in poor Chinese.

But it was soon covered up by the sound of artillery fire, but it also reached the ears of Li Yunlong and others.

"These bastards are so damn stubborn. With machine guns and artillery, who would fight you with bayonets? Shoot! Shoot with all your might!" Li Yunlong smiled jokingly and continued to order the troops to shoot.

The Japanese formation was soon torn apart, but the fanatical Japanese understood that they had no way out and could only continue to rush towards the Eighth Route Army's position.

As a result, they could only fall one by one in front of the Eighth Route Army's positions like wheat being cut.

The soldiers' eyes were full of anger and hatred. Many of them had their entire families brutally killed by the Japanese and had managed to escape, so they joined the army to avenge their families and fellow villagers.

Moreover, the 17th Division was full of Japanese devils. They massacred hundreds of thousands of Chinese people in China. Just a few days ago, after they managed to break through, they killed people and burned villages along the way.

Fortunately, the Japanese did not choose to surrender, otherwise they would have to treat these beasts well.

Now it happens that since they want to die, just satisfy them.

Kill them all, kill them all!

This is the cry in the heart of every Eighth Route Army soldier.

"Give it to me and shout!" Seeing that his men's shouting was of no use, the Locust Army's warriors were killed and wounded, and the army was about to be wiped out.

Kimitsu Masao kicked his men aside and snatched the loudspeaker: "Eighth Route Army on the opposite side, I am the Lieutenant General Commander of the 17th Division, the commander of this battle! I demand to fight you to the death in the way of a samurai. If you are still soldiers, you should respect the consciousness of the locust army! You are a bunch of cowards!"

When Xiguang Zhengfu's words reached the ears of Li Yunlong and others, everyone burst into laughter.

"He's anxious. The old devil Xiguang Zhengfu is anxious!" Ding Wei said with a smile.

"It's so exciting, so exciting, this battle was really amazing! The Lieutenant General, the division commander, actually personally said that he wanted to fight us in hand-to-hand combat, it's so damn rare!" Kong Jie took a puff of his cigarette excitedly and laughed.

"Bullshit, what about the samurai consciousness? Bullshit! Since this old guy wants to fight with us so much, after killing all these devils, I will fight him myself!"

"Zhang Dabiao! Lead the soldiers to charge, mow them down with machine guns, and then surround the Japanese officers. I want to see how powerful this guy is!"

Li Yunlong cursed and then gave an order.

"Yes! Captain!"

"The bugler blows the charge, comrades, follow me!"

"Use machine guns to sweep, don't fight the devils with bayonets!"

Zhang Dabiao threw his hat, picked up a Czech light machine gun, and shouted orders, his eyes full of excitement.

It's fucking cool to hold a machine gun and shoot! !

The loud charge horn resounded through the sky, and the soldiers began to charge with machine guns. The dense bullets madly greeted the Japanese soldiers with bayonets.

The devils howled in agony.

"Ahhh!!"

"It's getting dark, get on board!! Get on board!!"

"The Locust Army is invincible!!"

When the Japanese soldiers saw the Eighth Route Army finally rushing out, their originally frightened expressions instantly turned ferocious, and they shouted incoherently.

They were finally able to thrust their bayonets into the enemy's chest!

But the next second, intensive machine gun fire began, and the Japanese were confused again. The Eighth Route Army really had no martial ethics. They agreed to fight with bayonets, so why were you fighting with machine guns?

“Bakayaloo! Bakayaloo!!”

Masao Kimitsu was so angry at the scene that he started cursing, threw the loudspeaker in his hand to the ground and stomped on it several times.

Then he drew out his command knife and rushed forward.

When the Japanese generals next to Masao Kiyoshi saw that the division commander had charged forward, they naturally could not just stand there, so the remaining Japanese generals also raised their command sabers, gathered around Masao Kiyoshi, and charged towards the Eighth Route Army.

A few minutes later, all the Japanese soldiers on the position were killed or wounded, and without exception, they were all shot to pieces.

"Surround that Japanese lieutenant general, I want to fight him!" Li Yunlong ordered loudly as he looked at the group of Japanese officers rushing down.

Zhang Dabiao immediately led his men to surround them.

The Japanese officers formed a circle and surrounded Masao Yoshimitsu in the middle. They held their command sabers tightly in both hands, trembling with fear and looking at the Eighth Route Army in front of them cautiously.

"Everyone says the Japs' swordsmanship is pretty good. Today I'll show you that our Chinese swordsmanship is the best in the world. We are just master and disciple in name only. When it comes to cold weapons, we are the Japs' ancestors!"

Li Yunlong took the big knife with a cold glow and said to the soldiers.
