The sword starts with copying the sharpshooter's ability

The magic gun Zhang Wu? !
Everyone in the county brigade was shocked.

Although they belong to the Eighth Route Army, they are second-line local troops. They rarely see the regular armed forces of the Eighth Route Army, let alone the legendary sharpshooter Zhang Wu!
He is a legendary figure who shot down planes, tanks, and even a Japanese lieutenant general!

Seeing their shocked expressions, Wu Shuanzi became even more proud:

"It was just a coincidence. The sharpshooter Zhang Wu went to attack the Yu stronghold. Wow, his marksmanship was simply amazing. The Japanese sent more than 400 people to encircle and suppress him, but guess what happened?
He used the Eighth Route Army's sparrow tactics, shuttling between the Japs' guns and artillery, making sure the Japs couldn't even touch the edge of his clothes!

After he led the Japanese into the ambush circle, the other 30-odd soldiers of the independent regiment opened fire and directly killed two-thirds of the Japanese, achieving a casualty ratio of 7:287! "

30 vs. 400, with a casualty ratio of 7:287?!
The soldiers of the county brigade, who had just been listening attentively, were shocked again.

With several times the number of troops as the Japanese, any victory with a casualty ratio of 5:1 is considered a great victory. The examples of defeating the larger force with a smaller force can be counted on two hands, and there are almost no examples of battles with almost zero casualties!
This also shows how powerful the sharpshooter Zhang Wu is!
After a while, the people from the county brigade reacted and nodded in agreement, saying:

"As expected of Zhang Wu, the master spearman!"

"Yes, only he can create such a miracle!"

As they spoke, people looked at Wu Shuanzi, unable to resist their curiosity, and asked in unison:

"What does Master Gun Zhang Wu look like?"

"Did you shake hands with the sharpshooter Zhang Wu?"

"I heard that he is a handsome young man in the area, right?"

"It's not just the area within ten miles or so, it's the appearance of the handsome young men within twenty miles or sixteen miles!"

Wu Shuanzi showed an expression of admiration for Zhang Wu, and then said:

“Although I didn’t shake hands with the sharpshooter Zhang Wu, he personally encouraged me that the shortage of guns and ammunition was only temporary. If we don’t have guns and cannons, the enemy will make them for us!
They seized a lot of equipment this time, even infantry guns.

In order to enable our county brigade to fight off the Japanese ambush, he gave us 10 sets of the Japanese equipment! "

Wu Shuanzi was very tight-lipped. Zhang Wu asked him to keep it a secret, so he didn't mention a word about the intelligence and covered up the weapons and equipment on his own.

The soldiers believed it without a doubt and thought that this was Zhang Wu's care for their second-line troops.

After Captain Zheng Yun sent people to retrieve the remaining equipment, Wu Shuanzi spoke up:
"Captain, can you give me some bullets to practice shooting? I want to be the 'Sharpshooter Zhang Wu' of our county brigade!"

Wu Shuanzi brought back so many weapons and equipment, as well as more than 1000 bullets. Most importantly, Wu Shuanzi had a talent for shooting. In order to reward him, Zheng Yun specially approved bullets for Wu Shuanzi to practice shooting.

At the same time, Zhang Wu also returned to Zhaojiayu with the seized weapons and equipment.

Hearing the news of Zhang Wu's return, Zhao Gang raised his eyebrows. Looking back at the past, he said uncertainly:
"That's not right. How come Zhang Wu came back so soon? Old Li, did he find out some new information?"

"How the hell should I know?"

Li Yunlong pulled him out directly. He also hoped that they had discovered intelligence rather than Zhang Wu being injured:
"There's no point in guessing, we'll find out when we go over and take a look!"

"Ok!"

Zhao Gang nodded, left the regiment headquarters with him, and walked straight to the village entrance.

Before they reached the entrance of the village, they saw a group of people gathered together. Their exclamations could be heard from a distance:

"Wow, Zhang Wu and the others are amazing. You've only been out for one day and you've already captured so many weapons and equipment!"

"Yes, there are also mortars, Type 99 rifles, and so many Type 38 rifles, enough to equip at least a company. Haha, we're rich, we're rich!"

"Not only that, look here, there are two Type 2 infantry guns!"

Two more Type 2 infantry guns were seized?!

Li Yunlong's eyes lit up, and he and Zhao Gang looked at each other, both seeing expressions of surprise in each other's eyes.

The two men quickened their pace and couldn't wait to squeeze into the crowd to take a look, and sure enough, there were weapons and equipment all over the ground.

Seeing that Zhang Wu was not injured, Li Yunlong stepped forward and gave Zhang Wu a hug, patted Zhang Wu on the back, and laughed:
"Haha, you're really awesome, you've given me another bite of fat meat!"

As he said this, he let go of Zhang Wu and asked casually:
"How was the fight this time?"

Without Zhang Wu coming back, Wei Dayong once again spoke with pride:

"Commander, Political Commissar, this time we ambushed two squadrons of the Japanese plus an infantry artillery squad, more than 2 people, with only 400 casualties, and killed 7 Japanese!

The damage ratio is 7:287! "

He said in detail without taking credit:

“However, we can achieve such a good casualty ratio thanks to our captain!
If he hadn't adjusted the tactics against the Japanese and led them into the ambush, we wouldn't have been able to defeat more than 400 Japanese!"

The damage ratio is 7:287!

Hearing that the casualty ratio was so good, the soldiers all showed pleasant surprise and echoed Wei Dayong's words:
"Yes, with Zhang Wu here, what little devils can't we defeat?"

"That's right. Let alone more than 400 Japanese devils, even if there are more than 800, our Zhang Wu can beat them to tears!"

"In front of Zhang Wu, the little devils will be defeated for nothing!"

Not only them, Zhao Gang beside them couldn't help but applaud and praised:
"We were able to win such a great victory even though the force ratio was only 1:10. Zhang Wu commanded well, and the special forces fought well. Everything is good, everything is good!"

"Needless to say, how can my soldiers be bad?" Li Yunlong looked proud of Zhang Wu and the special forces team. At the same time, he was also certain that Zhang Wu must have obtained some intelligence by coming back so early!
Thinking of this, he asked Zhao Gang to lead the soldiers to transport the captured items to the logistics department for registration, and then dismissed the surrounding soldiers. Then he said to Zhang Wu:

"Tell me, have you discovered any new information?"

"Captain, it's like this..."

Zhang Wu was not surprised that Li Yunlong could guess it. He directly recounted the process of obtaining the intelligence, then frowned and analyzed:

"Further northwest is the base of the New 217nd Regiment and the th Regiment of the Central Army, but judging from the targets of the Japanese special forces' previous attacks, I don't think they are going to attack these two regiments!
As long as we pass these two regiments, we will reach our brigade headquarters, division headquarters, and headquarters!"

"You mean, the Japanese special forces are going to attack our headquarters again?"

Li Yunlong raised his eyebrows and nodded in agreement:

“It’s really possible!

Kong Erlangzi and the 217th Regiment are worth nothing. If I were the commander of the Japanese special forces, I would definitely bypass them and go straight to Yue County, or even Xing County!

No, then we can get a few elite troops outside and pretend to launch a large-scale attack to attract our attention, which will make it easier to succeed!"

As expected of Li Yunlong, he can draw inferences about three cases by analogy!

After praising it in his heart, Zhang Wu smiled slightly:
"Then our independent group's chance has come!"

"Hey, you're really a genius. How come you think the same as I do?"

Li Yunlong smiled and patted Zhang Wu on the shoulder. After a little thought, he said:
"I will immediately send this message to the brigade commander and ask him to ask the special committee to find out what the Japanese are up to, and by the way, apply for a commendation for you!

The brigade commander must express his opinion on such important information!
You should not go out during this period of time. Qian Bojun's troops will also rebel in the near future, and there will be plenty of battles for you to fight!"

"Yes!"

Zhang Wu nodded and returned to the dormitory to rest.

Li Yunlong did not waste any time. He returned to the regiment headquarters and sent Zhang Wu's findings to the brigade commander, and ordered him to step up recruitment.

If you want to accomplish the main attack mission of ambushing the Japanese elite, you must have strength!
Kong Jie and Ding Wei have both done well recently, and he can't let these two guys rebel against him!
While he was stepping up his recruitment efforts, the brigade commander immediately contacted the special committee after receiving the intelligence.

After several days of efforts by the insiders of the First Army, the Japanese selected their elite troops and formed a detachment to attack from the periphery to attract attention. The intelligence about Yamamoto's special forces infiltrating and attacking the headquarters was sent to the brigade commander.

The specific target of the Yamamoto special forces' attack this time was Yue County where the brigade headquarters was located!

"Damn it, he's coming for me!"

Knowing the combat effectiveness of Yamamoto's special forces, the brigade commander's pupils shrank sharply after reading the telegram from the special committee. He couldn't help but sigh:

"Zhang Wu is really amazing. He actually analyzed the limited information from the Japanese passing by that they wanted to launch a surprise attack on our headquarters at all levels. His strategic vision is no worse than Li Yunlong's!"

"Yes, he must have analyzed it based on the previous battles of this group of devils!"

The Chief of Staff echoed:

"After such a long time, I have been able to keep the Japanese tactics in my mind. This is the quality that a qualified regimental commander should have!
However, having said that, the Japanese's telecommunications reconnaissance has probably improved for some time.

We have only been here for less than 4 months, and they have already found our exact location, even though they are several regiments away from us. They are simply very good at finding us!"

"No matter how sharp their dog noses are, they can't be compared to the sharp knife we ​​stabbed into his heart!"

The brigade commander showed a look of contempt:

"They knew in advance that they were going to set up a dragon gate formation, and they still wanted to succeed? Humph, bullshit!"

"That's right. With the direct regiment guarding us, and the weapons and equipment sent by Li Yunlong, we can expand another regiment, which will be enough to deal with this elite group of Japanese devils!"

The Chief of Staff analyzed the defensive strategy:

“However, this group of Japanese soldiers are good at climbing, and the cliffs at the back of the mountain must be their main breakthrough direction.

We can refer to Zhang Wu’s previous tactics in Chenjiayu. We should place the light machine guns against the cliffs, and then put grenade launchers and infantry guns behind them to prevent the Japanese from getting close. Otherwise, he will be defeated!
Last time, relying on this tactic, the two battalions of the independent regiment wiped out nearly half of the Japanese devils! "

After a pause, he continued:

"I think we should also tell the division and headquarters about this news. We can't prevent the Japanese from attacking us, but they are still not giving up and are going to attack the headquarters again!"

"Well, let's do it!"

The brigade commander agreed immediately, then he looked at the telegram again and continued:
"But we can't just passively defend. In addition to a main regiment of the 2th Brigade, the Japanese will also transfer the 3th Brigade from southeastern Shanxi and split it into two detachments. The time limit is months...

Let the remaining troops in southeastern Shanxi step up their development efforts, and tell Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, and Kong Jie that if they want to get a piece of the pie, they must show their strength. Two months later, I want to see the specific strength of their various regiments!
As for Zhang Wu, he must be rewarded for his meritorious service. He should be awarded the title of "Brigade Model Soldier" and the whole brigade should be called upon to learn from him!"

After thinking for a while, the brigade commander continued:

"During this period of time, contact more regiments to draw the Japanese's attention to us!
Didn't he choose me as his target? Let's tell him that he made the right choice!

Prevent the Japanese from changing their target and reduce the risk to the division and headquarters!"

The Chief of Staff nodded in agreement:
"Okay, I'll send the message right away!"
