A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television

The enemy's attack was a big success.

A squad of the devils usually has 50 to 70 people, a squadron usually has 180 to 200 people, and a battalion has about 1,100 people.

The two squadrons that attacked the airport this time were about 380 people, equipped with heavy weapons such as mortars, grenade launchers, and heavy machine guns.

Some devil squadrons may also be equipped with 92 infantry guns. However, the two devil squadrons that attacked this time were only equipped with four Type 97 90mm mortars, eight heavy machine guns, and 18 grenade launchers, which was a very standard configuration of a devil infantry squadron.

In contrast, the airport has an absolute advantage in both manpower and firepower. The Chinese Expeditionary Force has 458 people, while the British Army has two companies with about 200 soldiers, and the total manpower is nearly twice that of the Japanese.

In terms of firepower configuration, the Chinese-British coalition has an absolute advantage. The two sides have a total of ten mortars, six anti-tank guns, twenty heavy machine guns, and four anti-aircraft guns. Light machine guns, submachine guns, and rifles all have absolute advantages.

Of course, the coalition also has its own disadvantages. Most of the soldiers in the expeditionary force lack training, and the British Army lacks fighting will.

In contrast, the Japanese are well-trained and have a strong fighting will.

In the past, even twice as many Chinese soldiers or twice as many British troops might not be able to stop the Japanese attack.

But the situation is naturally different now, because there is Lu Cheng here.

In the past few days, although Lu Cheng had already prepared to lead his men to retreat, he also helped to re-consolidate the airport's fortifications, prepared enough foxholes, arranged reasonable cross-fire points, and set up appropriate machine gun positions, mortar positions, sniper positions, etc. in advance.

As soon as he discovered the arrival of the Japanese army, Lu Cheng immediately ordered the soldiers to enter the fortifications and move various guns and ammunition to the battlefield.

At the same time, Lu Cheng also made a simple pre-war mobilization: "Brothers, when we met the devils before, we were not as good as them, and we lacked guns and artillery, and even bullets. It is understandable that we could not beat the devils.

But this time is different. We have the best British guns, which are faster and more accurate than the devils' rifles. We have mortars, anti-tank guns, heavy machine guns, submachine guns, grenades, and bullets, which are much better than the devils' equipment.

Don't worry about bullets and artillery shells, use all your strength and beat them hard. Do you have the confidence to beat these damn devils back home?"

"Yes!"

"Very good, I will fight with you, and make the devils' heavy machine guns and mortars all mute, and make the devils' grenade launchers You can only give up. If you still can't beat the Japanese, you can only go home and farm!

If we win this battle, I'll ask the British allies to prepare steaks and whiskey for you, and we'll have a celebration party!"

"Okay!"

After a few words, Lu Cheng called Long Wenjian: "Long Wenjian, do you want to personally participate in the command of this battle?"

"Of course."

"I can be appointed as the temporary deputy battalion commander, responsible for combat command. I will use a sniper rifle to kill all the heavy firepower of the Japanese. I only have one request, to win this battle at the lowest cost!"

"No problem!"

After arranging everything, Lu Cheng called some veterans with outstanding marksmanship such as Bu La and She Pit, formed a sniper team, occupied the sniper points prepared in advance, and specialized in hitting the heavy firepower of the Japanese.

At the same time, A Bao and Dou Bing each carried two Lee Enfield rifles and followed Lu Cheng.

At the same time, in a trench high behind the position, a loaded British 77 rifle was placed at intervals.

As the Japanese approached a certain distance, they began to put down mortars and heavy machine guns, set up machine gun positions and mortar positions, and Lu Cheng had already picked up a Ying 77 and aimed at the mortar position behind the Japanese position.

The Japanese tactics were very rigid, just as Meng Fanle said in the play, artillery bombarded, infantry charged, artillery bombarded infantry charged, infantry charged, artillery bombarded, and then switched.

Just when the Japanese had just placed the mortar and had no time to adjust the shooting angle, the Ying 77 in Lu Cheng's hand fired.

"Bang bang bang" gunshots sounded one after another, and the Japanese mortar gunners on the opposite side fell one after another. After ten bullets were fired, Lu Cheng quickly changed his position, picked up another Ying 77, and fired another ten bullets.

When forty bullets were fired, the Japanese could no longer care about the mortars on the ground.

artillery, turned around and ran, shouting: "There is a sniper!"

Immediately after Lu Cheng's gunshot, the British troops in the rear airport also cooperated and started firing. Anti-tank guns, heavy mortars, and light mortars, one shell after another fell on the Japanese positions, and the Japanese who were preparing to charge were all blown up.

In the past, the Japanese used mortars and grenade launchers to blow others up and then charge all at once.

But now the position has changed. As soon as the battle started, the Japanese encountered a round of artillery bombardment.

The commander of the Japanese obviously did not expect this situation. He looked at the shells exploding around him and immediately ordered a charge to the enemy's position, so that the enemy's artillery could not play its advantage.

The Japanese have made too much progress in Southeast Asia recently. The British troops they encountered basically dispersed after a charge. Therefore, although they encountered artillery bombardment, they still did not change their combat habits. They still let the heavy machine guns fire and launched a counterattack.

However, the rifle in Lu Cheng's hand seemed to have turned into the sickle of the god of death, ruthlessly harvesting one after another of the Japanese machine gunners and grenadiers.

Some gunmen such as Bu La also specialized in shooting heavy machine gunners and grenadiers.

On a high platform in the back, Catherine held a telescope and looked at the battle in the distance with a nervous look, focusing on Lu Cheng's battle situation.

"A Bao, gun!"

A Bao didn't waste any words. He quickly handed Lu Cheng a loaded Ying Qiqi, and picked up the Ying Qiqi that Lu Cheng had just thrown aside and had emptied of bullets from the ground beside him, and took out the clip and loaded it with bullets.

"Doubing, gun!"

Taking the gun handed over by Doubing, Lu Cheng turned over, changed his position, and continued to shoot at the front position.

In this way, Lu Cheng, relying on his precise shooting skills, shot a squad or even a platoon alone. Every time a bullet was fired, a Japanese fell down.

Soon, the Japanese mortars, heavy machine guns, and grenade launchers were all invalidated. Any Japanese who dared to approach the heavy machine guns and mortars were killed directly by Lu Cheng.

These weapons have been renamed Lu, and the Japanese cannot waste a single shell.

After that, Lu Cheng aimed at the Japanese soldiers in front and began to call out their names, one shot at a time, quickly and accurately.

The Chinese soldiers on the position had also opened fire, mortars, heavy machine guns, rifles, bullets and shells fired in unison, hitting the charging Japanese soldiers and making them unable to raise their heads.

Before the Japanese soldiers rushed to the front, a large number of them had been written off, leaving less than half of the troops.

The Japanese commander was a major. Seeing that the losses were too heavy, he was about to order a retreat, but was hit accurately in the middle of his eyebrows by a bullet and fell to the ground and died.

The Japanese soldiers who lost their command suddenly became chaotic, and after leaving some corpses, some of them had already turned around and fled.

Although the Japanese soldiers had a strong will to fight, they were also afraid of death. In an extremely unfavorable situation, they would also collapse.

Seeing that the Japanese soldiers began to turn around and flee, Lu Cheng came to the mortar position again, adjusted the firing angles of several mortars, and asked the soldiers to start shooting immediately.

One mortar shell after another fell on the heads of the Japanese soldiers, instantly killing and injuring a large number of them.

When the Japanese soldiers ran a thousand meters away, there were only fifty or sixty of them left, and they ran very scattered.

Lu Cheng immediately led his men out: "Submachine gunners follow me, and the others will clean up the battlefield and make up for it!"

Then, thirty or forty soldiers, each holding a Sten submachine gun, followed Lu Cheng and rushed out.

Although the Japanese soldiers ran fast, Lu Cheng's speed was faster, like a tiger descending from the mountain. In a blink of an eye, he closed the distance with the fleeing Japanese soldiers. While running, he fired, and immediately killed the Japanese soldiers behind him one by one...
