At two o'clock in the afternoon, the battle on the Ford Bridge side was at a fever pitch.

Two infantry battalions of the 50th Regiment of the US Army, supported by three artillery batteries and two machine-gun companies, divided into several waves of skirmishers and rushed to the bridgehead like a tidal wave.

Artillery fire swept through the sugar cane fields and orchards, and sweet shards of sugar cane and green fruit trees flew in all directions along with the dirt.

The Maxim machine gun spewed dense orange-red flames, the Springfield rifle hung with shiny bayonets, and the M1911 Browning pistol swung in the officer's hand.

Company columns, platoon columns, squad straggler lines...... Charge! Charge like ants!

Ants, ants everywhere! But the ruthless ants, when they think about it, they itch, trample you to death, trample you to death!

The Jinling 10 submachine gun in Liang Gensheng's hand frantically threw out a series of bullet casings, and the enemy had already attacked the headquarters of the wing!

In the blink of an eye, five or six American soldiers who jumped out of the smoking sugar cane field were knocked to the ground by the long point of fire from the submachine guns, and there was no time to change magazines! Subconsciously threw down the submachine gun, pulled out the Mauser with his right hand, and pulled out the Jinling Twelve with his left hand, and the two pistols that had been opened in advance did not need to make superfluous movements, aim with their minds, and pull the trigger!

The arm vibrated slightly, the bolt slid back and forth gracefully, one on the left fell, the right one fell, and directly in front of him another small man, dangerous - a barrel sticking out of the sugar cane field on the left!

Only a whooshing sound was heard in the ear, and the fully concentrated nerves did not react more, but the conditioned firing tilted over the left hand, pulled the trigger three times in a row, and the rifle fell crookedly, and almost at the same time, the Mauser in his right hand knocked down two unusually tall strong men in succession.

The ears began to bleed, and yes, this feeling, warm liquid, was running down the cheeks—measurly, far from the skull!

Crackling, crisp empty warehouse hang-up, Jinling's twelve bullets were the first to be fired, and in the blink of an eye, Mauser's twenty rounds were gone, but the sugarcane leaves in the distance were still shaking violently - the detachment guarding that direction was probably all gone......

While taking out a special melon-shaped grenade from the hanging bag in front of his shoulder, the corner of his eye glanced to the left, where the adjutant Xiao Lu, who was still shooting together just now, fell, and on the right, the shell that had just fallen had swept down the other two staff officers of the wing headquarters.

There is only one co-captain on this 20-meter gap!

Behind it is the riverbank, there is the radio, it is the pilots......

Pull out the latch, press the lever, calculate the angle to throw the grenade, and lie down -

There were suddenly a few more people on both sides of the grass, and they didn't make a move, so they weren't enemies.

"Get down." Liang Gensheng subconsciously confessed.

The man obediently lay down.

Before hearing the explosion, Liang Gensheng had already recognized the person - Cai Guolan and her two fellow pilots.

"What are you doing here?" At the same time as the grenade exploded, Liang Gensheng had already grabbed the submachine gun on the ground, quickly pulled out the empty magazine, and inserted it into the 32-round live magazine.

"What else can I do?" Cai Guolan lit up the Jinling Twelve in his hand.

Liang Gensheng pouted his face at the fallen adjutant: "Pick up the gun over there." ”

Without superfluous words or superfluous expressions, the three pilots picked up the guns of the adjutant and the two staff officers respectively, and leaned against the dirt slope on the bank of the river and assumed a shooting position.

"It's coming, fight!"

On the cane forest path trampled by American soldiers, a figure with a spear could be faintly seen, and four submachine guns hit those figures one by one, and suddenly the ghost cried wolf and screamed again and again.

When Liang Gensheng finished firing the third magazine and threw the last grenade, a detachment of reinforcements from the north bank of the bridge arrived, and nine soldiers rushed past Liang Gensheng and the pilots while strafing and throwing bombs, and counterattacked in the direction from which the enemy came.

Cai Guolan was just about to rush after him, but was suddenly knocked down from behind.

A cannonball whistled down and exploded in front of the two men.

The smoke and dust dissipated, and Qi Bing behind him rushed over nervously: "Sister Cai! You're all right—you're all right! ”

I saw a broad, dusty man's back slowly flipping over, and it turned out that it was Liang Gensheng who pounced on Cai Guolan and blocked her with his whole body.

"Don't scream, if I don't have anything to do, she's fine." Liang Gensheng spat out the soil in his mouth and said impatiently.

Cai Guolan below bared her teeth and said: "Who said that I didn't have anything to do, it all cracked my wounds, and it hurt-"

"It's good to save your life, be content." Liang Gensheng said this, but took out a small medicine bottle from his trouser pocket and threw it in front of Cai Guolan, "This is for you, two at a time, don't eat more, you will die." ”

"What kind of thing, can you eat dead people......"

"Painkillers, don't scream if you eat them, I hate women to chirp the most, and I'm noisy."

Cai Guolan frowned and picked up the medicine bottle.

"Don't stay there, it's time to shoot again, come to the cave." After Liang Gensheng finished speaking, he glanced at Cai Guolan, who was still shrunk on the ground with a bitter face, shook his head, picked it up with lightning speed, and jumped into a cat hole dug in the river bank in three steps and two steps.

At this time, two medical soldiers rushed over, and Liang Gensheng ordered them to rescue the adjutant and the two staff officers first.

Putting down Cai Guolan, Liang Gensheng himself ran over to help: "The enemy is going to shoot artillery, hurry up and carry them to the hole over there, second lieutenant, and you, come and help——"

Five people worked together and quickly moved the three wounded to safety.

As soon as Liang Gensheng returned to Cai Guolan's Mao'er Cave, dense artillery fire poured down, and the earth splashed down like a torrential rain, and columns of turbid water mixed with mud rose from the river......

Liang Gensheng blocked between Cai Guolan and the entrance of the cave, and his burly body sealed the narrow entrance of the cave tightly, and the cave became pitch black.

"Good Black ......"

Although it was between the explosion of the shells, because his ears were numb from the shock, Liang Gensheng still didn't hear what Cai Guolan was saying.

"What did you say?"

Cai Guolan bit her lip and leaned into Liang Gensheng's ear: "I said, Xie Lu, thank you for saving me!" ”

The response was 100% unflattering: "Oh, it's nothing, because you still have value." ”

Cai Guolan was hit, twisted open the medicine bottle angrily, groped for two pills, and swallowed dryly.

The next round of blows followed: "I said, why hasn't your plane come yet, it shouldn't be that you have reported the wrong direction." ”

Cai Guolan rubbed the ground and was about to rush out, but was firmly held down by Liang Gensheng.

"Where to go?"

"Didn't you say I was in the wrong direction? I'm going to check it out. ”

Liang Gensheng shrugged, and with a little force, he pushed the eldest lady with strong self-esteem back.

"If you really want to confirm it, it won't be your turn to go, just lie here obediently and don't trouble me."

"That's really sorry!"

Cai Guolan shook off Liang Gensheng's hand with all his strength, and rushed out, but collided with the other party face to face in the dark.

"Oops—it hurts!"

"Stupid, what the hell are you doing-"

"How do I know your face is there......"

"Don't you do things through your brain—"

……

When the quarrel ended, the shelling also abruptly stopped.

The hum of the propellers at high speed was heard in the sky.
