以一敌百
audie murphy was the most decorated soldier in american history. in january 1945, he was serving as company commander in eastern france. one cold morning, near the village of holzwihr, he saw 250 german infantrymen and six tanks bearing down on him. and he had only 19 men left in his company.
murphy sent his men back to take defensive positions behind him. alone, he mounted an abandoned burning tank destroyer, and employed its machine gun against the enemy. for nearly an hour, he was exposed to german fire from three sides, but his deadly fire killed dozens of germans, and the enemy tanks, losing infantry support, had to fall back.

murphy then led his men in a counter attack that routed the german forces. he had held his position.
奥迪．墨菲是美国史上获颁勋章最多的军人。一九四五年一月，他在法国东部担任连长。一天寒冷的早上，在霍茨维尔村附近，他看见二百五十个德国步兵和六辆坦克来犯，而他一连人只剩下十九个。
墨菲叫手下退到他后面，准备迎战。他独自走上一辆着火废弃的反坦克装甲车，用车上机枪对付德军，打了将近一小时，冒着德军炮火，三面受敌。几十个德军死在他的夺命枪下。德军坦克车渐渐失去步兵支援，不得不退却。
墨菲随即率领手下反攻，把德军击溃，守住了阵地。
