    Because the strength of a battalion on the frontal defensive position basically concentrated its firepower to deal with the Japanese brigade charging frontally.

    However, now that the Japanese cavalry troops suddenly came out from the flanks, they could only rely on the firepower on the wall behind them to suppress these cavalrymen.

    However, the Japanese cavalry were very fast. It only took about five minutes to rush from behind the slope where they were hiding to the bottom of the city wall.

    Such a charging speed made it impossible for Tang Minghai and his company commanders to mobilize troops to consolidate the flank defenses.

    To deal with cavalry troops, the method that needs to be used is actually very simple, that is, to use machine gun firepower to form a dense firepower network.

    As long as the enemy's cavalry attacks from the front of the machine gun fire defense, it will be beaten into a honeycomb under the dense firepower network.

    However, if the enemy appears at the side and rear, in these blank areas that are about to be covered by the fire network, then it will take a long time for them to turn their guns and fire at them.

    And this period of time was enough for large groups of Japanese cavalry troops to rush to the position and hack and trample them.

    Tang Minghai immediately concentrated the firepower on the city wall to both wings in an attempt to block the charging Japanese troops.

    However, most of the firepower above the city has a machine gun range of only about 1 kilometer. Beyond this range, the bullets will not know where to fly.

    And the cavalry unit that accelerates to the fastest speed can reach dozens of kilometers per hour.

    It only takes a minute or two for the cavalry to cover this 1 kilometer distance.

    Their light machine guns and heavy machine guns are limited in the number of bullets they can shoot in this minute. When the cavalry troops rush into the defensive positions below.  The soldiers on both sides were mixed together, and their machine gun firepower had no effect.

    If they want to support the soldiers below, Tang Minghai and the others can only send reinforcements to fight hand-to-hand with these Japanese troops.

    In the distance, Meijiro Xiangzu looked at their two cavalry units, which were already like two very sharp knives, stabbing hard at the defensive positions of the Fourth Army.

    You know that this enemy's defensive position is very likely to be taken down by you.

    "If such a defensive position is captured, then their subsequent reserve forces and a large number of armored forces can directly launch a frontal attack on the city wall of Qinhuangdao.

    ??The city wall in Qinhuangdao is relatively low, so they only need to put up some wooden ladders to climb.

    As for the heavy artillery in the rear, it can directly knock down the city wall here. Under the first round of artillery strikes by the Japanese army just now, the city wall of Qinhuangdao has already collapsed.

    Unlike the joyful expression of Meijiro Kazui who thought he was about to win, the face of Kuai Zeichi at this time was still very serious.

    He knows that before the enemy's defensive position is completely taken down, any unexpected factors may happen.

    After all, the army on the opposite side is also an army capable of hundreds of battles.

    They must have experienced countless brutal battles. It may not be that simple to conquer this position in one fell swoop.

    Sure enough, it was just as Kuai Zeichi feared.  Just as their cavalry troops were getting closer and closer to the defensive positions of the Fourth Army, a roar of aircraft came from behind them.

    Hearing such a sound, both Kuai Zeichi and Xiangzu Yoshijiro felt a chill go down their spines.

    They do carry some anti-aircraft firepower, but these anti-aircraft firepower cannot stop the enemy's large-scale air force attack.

    ??Kuizawa turned around, picked up the telescope, and looked at the distant sky.

    On the skyline, dense black shadows have appeared in his field of vision.

    Under the rays of the sun, the metal on the surface of these fighters exudes a shining light, which is very dazzling.

    In Kuai Zeichi's eyes, the metal surfaces of these fighter planes reflect the sun's rays, just like mirrors flying in the air.

    However, a great fear arose in his heart.  Because he knew that the enemy's air force was about to come to this land, and these air forces were definitely not carrier-based aircraft sent by their aircraft carrier formations.

    Because, among the detailed rules of this battle of the Japanese army, there is aRegulation.

    This rule may sound very strange, but because of the Japanese army¡¯s understanding of the prevention and control forces of the four armed forces, this rule has been strictly observed by the Japanese Air Force.

    This rule states that in areas occupied by the enemy, air forces must not privately conduct reconnaissance or bombing missions.

    Because the enemy is equipped with very advanced anti-aircraft missiles that can track and locate their aircraft, basically all Japanese fighter planes will be destroyed as long as they are locked by these aircraft.

    Yesterday, the Japanese 19th Division was engaged in the battle against Tianjin Port.  Many of the carrier-based aircraft formations dispatched by the Japanese army for bombing missions were destroyed by the World Army's anti-aircraft missile units.

    Since then, this area has been classified as a no-fly zone by the Japanese army, and carrier-based aircraft and other bombers are not allowed to enter this airspace and perform any missions.

    ??Xiangzu Meijiro also turned his head at this time and looked at the flickering silver spots in the distance.

    His eyes fell on Kuai Zeichi. This time, he also saw some panic in the eyes of this usually calm Japanese commander.

    A trace of fear could not help but arise in Xiangzu Meijiro's heart.

    Because, before he makes a judgment on the battlefield situation, he often observes Kuai Zeichi first.

    If Kuai Zeichi remains very calm, it means that the situation on the battlefield is not too bad and they still have a chance.

    But now, the panic in Kuizawa's eyes obviously means that in the face of the enemy's air force bombing, Kuizawa has no good way to deal with it.

    It was also at this time that the fighter planes were flying closer and closer, and in the blink of an eye they were above their heads.

    When Tang Minghai saw these fighter jets and bombers dispatched by the Air Force, he immediately ordered his soldiers to fire colored smoke grenades towards the path that the Japanese cavalry troops were about to pass to instruct these fighter jets and bombers to carry out combat missions.

    The pilots of the fighter jets and bombers saw the colorful smoke screens on the ground and immediately began to move closer to that area.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
