The sword starts with copying the sharpshooter's ability

Chapter 22: Japanese Sniper
"You can spread some news first and let that kid have a taste of the sweetness!"

The CEO added:

"It's like hanging a carrot in front of a donkey. Who knows, that brat might be able to give us another big surprise!"

"agree!"

When the news that the boss's commendation would be issued reached the New 1st Regiment, the entire regiment was in an uproar.

Isn’t the boss’ commendation the greatest recognition for the new group?

The soldiers ran around celebrating, everyone's face was beaming, and they were full of energy. They wished they could defeat the Japanese a few more times right away so that the boss's commendation would come sooner.

Zhang Wu couldn't help but be happy for two days. This honor would be at least a third-class merit in later generations, right?
With this good news, and the spread of the news that the New 1st Regiment had completely wiped out the Japanese heavy armored squadron and captured Panshui Town, young people came to join the army in an endless stream before Li Yunlong even raised the banner of recruiting soldiers.

Just as the New 1st Regiment was busy recruiting soldiers, helping the brigade commander transport supplies and preparing to enter Luo Village, Captain Fukado and his observer Captain Usugi arrived at the county seat of Fang County.

In order to make use of these two snipers, the county's highest commander, Major Kamei, personally met with them.

When he heard that they were going to Panshui Town to fight the sharpshooter Zhang Wu, Major Kamei was delighted but looked very regretful:

"You are too late. The New 1st Regiment where the sharpshooter Zhang Wu is located has already occupied Panshui Town! The Zuoyuan Squadron and Lieutenant Morita and other warriors of the Empire that I sent to support us have all been killed!"

All destroyed?

Captain Fukado and Captain Uesugi exchanged a glance, and Captain Fukado asked impatiently:

"What's going on? Isn't it only three days?"

“…Not only did he kill so many warriors, but the sharpshooter Zhang Wu also humiliated the empire. Now the people around Fang County know that he alone made the imperial army in Panshui Town afraid to patrol for three days!”

Seeing that Fukado was seeking revenge, Major Kamei exaggerated the news he had gathered, and finally nodded sharply and said:

"I hope you can save face for the empire, please!"

Captain Fukado widened his eyes, a hint of viciousness flashing in them:
"Haiyi, we still have 10 days of vacation, let's go attack Panshui Town right now, with the sharpshooter Zhang Wu's style!"

Uesugi frowned slightly. He had already seen that Major Kamei was using them as pawns:
"Mr. Fukado, are you really going to attack Panshui Town?"

"Of course!"

Fukado had an expression that said, "I know what you mean."

“Not only to save face for the empire and avenge the warriors like Morita, but also to eliminate the sharpshooter Zhang Wu!
You should be aware of the role of a sniper in war, especially since the 'Secure the Occupied Areas Campaign' is about to begin!"

Uesugi suddenly realized that Fukado was accumulating military merits for the position of major next year, and he was happy to give the Fukado family a goodwill gesture:
"We can keep attacking Panshui Town and force the sharpshooter Zhang Wu to duel with us. With your 2.5-meter shooting skills under the 550x scope, you will definitely be able to kill him!"

Major Kamei's eyes lit up, and he assisted thoughtfully:

"The county seat is 100 kilometers away from Panshui Town. I'll send a motorcycle to take you there!"

On the other hand, Zhang Wu had already made plans in Panshui Town. Once he arrived at Luo Village, he would apply to act alone.

The battle of Cang Yun Ridge is getting closer. Even if the guns will take another month, we cannot sit idle during this time.

Luocun is not far from the county town, just 50 miles away from the Japanese grid line of the county town. He can go to the county town, or the artillery towers and strongholds on the line of the county town to gain experience.

Thinking of his experience, he opened the system panel.

【Name: Zhang Wu】

[Level: LV2]

[Experience: 503/2000]

[Occupation: Sharpshooter directly under the New First Regiment]

[Skill: Lock]

[Skill: Telescope]

[Copy Ability Exchange Voucher: 0]

Still 1497 experience points left!
Looking at the experience bar, Zhang Wu didn't know if he could upgrade before the battle of Cangyun Ridge, but everything depends on human effort, so just do it!

Having made up his mind, he exited the system space. After accidentally hearing that Li Yunlong was going to promote Gu Dashan to the fourth battalion commander, he had dinner and went to the North Gate Blockhouse where the Ninth Company had just changed guards in advance under the bright moonlight to tell him the news. Upon hearing the news, Gu Dashan was overjoyed. He found Tian Xichuan and said proudly:
"Zhang Wu, tell me the news again!"

In order to satisfy Gu Dashan's boasting, Zhang Wu smiled:
"Our regiment commander said that once the two battalions are expanded, you will be the commander of the fourth battalion!"

"Fourth Battalion Commander?"

Tian Xichuan's eyes lit up, and he was sincerely happy for Gu Dashan:
"Congratulations, Lao Gu. You are finally going to command a battalion on your own!"

"Haha, what did I say then?"

Gu Dashan said proudly:

"I will leave, and you will leave too, but the Ninth Company will always be a sharp knife stabbing into the enemy's heart!"

"Of course!"

Tian Xichuan nodded, his expression serious:
"Don't worry, even if you leave, the Ninth Company will still be the sharp knife of the New First Regiment!"

Gu Dashan patted Tian Xichuan on the shoulder:

"I'm confident that you will be able to take care of the Ninth Company. I will propose that you be promoted to the regular position!"

Tian Xichuan was not surprised either, he deliberately joked:

"Alas, a sharpshooter directly under the regiment, a battalion commander of the fourth battalion, poor me, I can only become a company commander after you leave!"

"Stop being so jealous! We were able to get promoted because we worked hard for it!"

Gu Dashan widened his eyes and said:

"Zhang Wu played a key role in every battle, especially in the battle of Panshui Town..."

Speaking of Diaolou, he looked at Zhang Wu:
"Your marksmanship is really amazing. I've heard that Zhang Dabiao couldn't rush forward at that time, and you helped him shoot one by one!
Can you tell me how you were able to shoot so accurately in such a dark environment, more than 400 meters away? "

Without Zhang Wu saying anything, Tian Xichuan said:
"Didn't the captain say that our Zhang Wu is a genius?"

Tian Xichuan said this and looked at Zhang Wu.

What kind of genius is he? Isn’t he relying on cheats?

Thinking about the cheat, he opened the [lock] and [telescope], and made a sniper gesture. He couldn't tell the system, so he could only repeat the words he had said before:

"Whenever I shoot, I get a feeling..."

At this point, he suddenly discovered that there were two red dots 550 meters away!

not good!

With a jolt in his heart, Zhang Wu immediately changed his words:
"Turn off the lights quickly, there are devils outside the town!"

Gu Dashan didn't understand why, but he chose to believe Zhang Wu and shouted directly:
"Listen to Zhang Wu and turn off the lights!"

The lights on the town walls, sentry posts and fortifications went out instantly.

Zhang Wu felt a little relieved, and seeing that the two red dots were still not moving, he couldn't help but wonder, why did they come here so far away in the middle of the night?

Observe the situation at the sentry post? Wouldn't it be better during the day?
This is obviously unreasonable!

If it wasn't observation, then it was a sneak attack. At such a long distance...

Jap sniper!

Thinking of this possibility, Zhang Wu’s pupils contracted to the extreme in his wide eyes. This is a provocation to me!

He was the one who attacked Panshui Town at night!
Otherwise, how could the Japanese sniper attack Panshui Town at night without his vision marking ability?

He's looking for death!
Thinking of this, Zhang Wu's eyes lit up. If it wasn't a coincidence, and he discovered the Japanese in advance and let the Japanese shoot the sentry, he would be a sinner!
"It might be a Japanese sniper, don't turn on the light!"

After giving instructions to Gu Dashan, Zhang Wu pulled the bolt to load the bullet, left the blockhouse, and quickly returned to the 460-meter point.
