I really came here to fight against Japan

Chapter 137 Our reinforcements have arrived

The guard company commander quickly led his men down the hillside and collected a pile of rifles and bullets.

They were taken up the hillside along with the war horses that had no owners nearby.

He gave away his horse, rifle and bullets to the soldiers of the militia brigade.

To be honest, the militia's weapons are too poor. If they are not given some good rifles, they can't help much.

All the explosive packs brought by the militia brigade were taken away by Song Wenwan.

If I rely on them to detonate explosives to save myself, then my journey through time would have been in vain.

Seeing that the Ma family army's cavalry was about to attack again, Captain Wang and the company commander came to find him.

Captain Wang said: "Commander Song, you should leave first! This place can only resist one or two attacks from the Ma family army, and it will be lost.

As for our reinforcements, we don’t know when they will arrive here, why don’t you go first…”

Captain Wang felt very embarrassed to say this, as all soldiers have their own pride.

He was afraid that Song Wenwan would not be willing to give up on them and would escape first.

Sure enough, Song Wenwan said to Captain Wang without any hesitation, "Okay, I'm leaving. I'll go find reinforcements first. You guys have to hold on for 20 minutes. I'll be back soon."

Then he rolled over, got out of the makeshift trench, and jumped onto a good horse.

With an expression of disbelief on Captain Wang's face, he rode his horse back.

Captain Wang looked at the guard company commander and said with a puzzled expression: "Why does your commander...seem to be different from the cadres of our Eighth Route Army?"

He felt that Song Wenwan was, after all, an anti-Japanese hero.

But he really couldn't say the words "deserve at the critical moment".

The guard captain said nonchalantly: "Our commander said he was going to find reinforcements, so he must be going to find reinforcements.

You, you'll get used to it in the future."

Captain Wang sighed. He felt that this time, he couldn’t even last half an hour, so there was no future for him.

At this time, the Ma family cavalry had already reached 200 meters up the hillside.

Since there were dead bodies and wounded soldiers everywhere, they could only clean up first.

Under the cover of the horses, they carried the wounded away first, regardless of whether they could be saved or not.

We have to carry them down. If we ignore the lives of these wounded soldiers, who will be willing to attack the hillside later?

Then we need to clean up the dead bodies, which also need to be carried away.

Do you know which dead body on the ground is the relative of which cavalryman behind?

If you dare to step over them, his relatives will chop you from behind with their knives.

The last things to be cleaned up were the war horses. These were easy to clean. All they had to do was jump on the horses and ride back.

The guard company on the hillside did not make any move to disturb the Ma family army.

Captain Wang asked, "Captain, why don't we take this opportunity to attack them all?"

The company commander laughed and said, "Starting the fight now will give their superiors an excuse to not care about the lives of the wounded.

We may not be in a hurry, as we agreed to persist for twenty minutes.

The longer we hold on, the stronger it will be for us.”

In the blink of an eye, ten minutes passed and the Ma family army finished their mission.

Looking at the Ma family army and their horses that were already running, the guard captain shouted, "Open fire! Shoot them to death."

Suddenly there was a burst of gunfire on the hillside, and two Browning heavy machine guns also opened fire.

The crossfire network formed by the heavy machine guns was firing frantically at the galloping cavalry.

Although they have the advantage of terrain, their firepower is also very rapid.

But they still had less than 200 people, and this numerical disadvantage was still impossible for them to make up.

After a while, under the Ma family army's attack regardless of casualties, they finally broke through the guard company's defensive position.

Seeing that some cavalrymen had already rode into the mountain pass, the Ma family army behind them also rushed forward madly.

Just now, Captain Wang of the militia brigade was hit in the lower abdomen by a bullet. He covered the wound tightly with a towel.

At this time, the guard company commander had no time to care about him. He grabbed the detonator beside him and pressed it hard.

"boom……"

As the violent explosions sounded at the mountain pass, the guard company commander took the explosive packs of the militia battalion.

All the grenades brought by the guard company were detonated.

With the flying rocks, countless Ma family cavalrymen suffered heavy casualties.

Watching the Ma family army retreating like a tide, the guard company commander let out a long sigh of relief.

He sat down next to Captain Wang and lit a cigarette.

He took a puff first, then put it back into Captain Wang's mouth.

Captain Wang said: "You are all freaks. You dare to place explosives so close to us."

He looked down at the hillside, which had changed from steep to a slope.

Looking at the Ma family cavalry who were once again forming up, the militiamen put their swords and spears beside them.

The soldiers of the guard company also placed their ordnance shovels in convenient places.

Everyone also knew that before they ran out of bullets, the Ma family cavalry would rush to everyone's sight.

All the soldiers are ready to fight hand-to-hand with the enemy.

Captain Wang sighed and said, "I'm afraid we can't hold on this time!

I hope your Commander Song can run as far as possible, so that we will not have to travel so far to find him in vain."

The guard captain glanced at his watch and said calmly, "Time is passing so slowly today, there are still several seconds left until twenty minutes.

Look, three, two, one. It wasn’t easy. The twenty minutes are finally up.”

Captain Wang said, "Well, even if the reinforcements don't come, I won't blame your commander."

The guard company commander suddenly sat up straight and slapped his thigh.

He said to Captain Wang, "Listen, here they come."

"Whoosh..."

As the whistling sound got closer, everyone on the hillside raised their heads.

They saw countless shells with tail flames flying over their heads.

It smashed into the extremely arrogant Ma family cavalry who were organizing an attack.

There was more than one wave of artillery shells coming, and nine more waves of bombing followed closely behind.

The smoke and dust produced by the exploding artillery shells enveloped all the cavalrymen of the Ma family army.

In the smoke, there were cries of the Ma family army, the wailing of war horses, and the sound of exploding artillery shells.

The broken limbs and arms of the Ma family army kept flying in the smoke.

The guard company commander had already wrapped the first aid kit around Captain Wang's wound.

Old Wang, who was grimacing in pain from his wound, didn't know what he was thinking of at this moment.

He laughed a few times to himself, which made the guard company commander hide back.

He thought to himself: Isn’t this expression of yours too scary?

Captain Wang of the militia brigade trembled his lips and whispered, "Do you think this is a punishment from heaven?"

The guard captain laughed and said, "I didn't expect you, Lao Wang, to be quite knowledgeable. You can even come up with this word."

At this time, the militia comrades on the hillside and the soldiers of the guard company.

They foolishly forgot to cheer and just stared blankly at the sky.

At this time, everyone was thinking: Is this the strength of our reinforcements? Our Commander Song is so domineering!

The ten rounds of bombing finally ended, and the smoke on the battlefield gradually dissipated.

Many of the Ma family soldiers who were scared out of their wits by the explosion sat on the ground stupidly, letting their horses neigh helplessly.

This is not the end. From the other side of Xiaoyanchuan, the sound of "boom boom" of horse hooves suddenly came.

The guard company commander stood up and shouted happily: "Brothers, our Gannan Cavalry Division is here! Our reinforcements have arrived!"
