Chapter 23 New Goal
Seeing that the lights in Panshui Town were suddenly turned off, Captain Fukado and Captain Uesugi, who were not yet prepared, were a little confused.

Captain Uesugi asked while holding a telescope:
"Mr. Fukado, could it be that the people from Panshui Town have discovered us?"

"Uesugi-kun, are you kidding me?"

Captain Fukado had a look of disbelief and contempt on his face:

"We were wearing camouflage suits and had already blended into the darkness. We were 550 meters away, and Panshui Town had not fired any flares. Apart from Amaterasu, who could have spotted us from such a long distance?

Humph, we just stay here until dawn, stupid..."

Snapped

Before he could finish his words, a 6.5mm Arisaka bullet pierced through his rotten mouth, passed through the back of his head, and took his life on the spot!

Discovered?

As an observer who is better than a sniper, Captain Uesugi squatted down reflexively as soon as the thought came to his mind, and rushed behind a big rock in one step.

Snapped

He had just rushed over when a bullet became embedded in the mountain wall behind his original position.

Looking at the bullet hole, Captain Uesugi's wide-open triangular eyes had their pupils contracted to the extreme:
Such fierce, accurate and fast shooting skills!
The sharpshooter Zhang Wu!

Apart from the sharpshooter Zhang Wu, who else could have such marksmanship?
Although he didn't understand how Zhang Wu found them, Captain Uesugi refused to sit and wait for death.

He suppressed the hairs that stood up on his body, the fear brought by the cool breeze on his back, hooked the Type 97 sniper rifle with his foot, and rolled tactically into a sunken patch of weeds.

Not feeling reassured by the cover of rocks and weeds, he crawled forward for a distance and entered a U-shaped groove surrounded by rocks on three sides. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, picked up his gun, used the scope, and searched for Zhang Wu through the cracks in the rocks.

But in such a dark environment, with many rocks blocking the view, how could he possibly find Zhang Wu who was 460 meters away?
But in Zhang Wu's eyes, he was as conspicuous as a big light bulb!
"Damn it, a professionally trained sniper has a quick reaction!"

After complaining, Zhang Wu started to move with his gun. He was not afraid of his quick reaction. With the telescope locked on him, he could not escape.

After detouring for less than 20 meters, Zhang Wu found a clear shooting position. Without any hesitation, he raised his gun and pulled the trigger after the [Lock] was fine-tuned:
"You little devil, die for me!"

Snapped

The 6.5mm Arisaka bullet arrived in an instant, and Captain Uesugi was shot in the head before he could react.

[Ding, kill a Japanese sniper, gain 60 experience points. (LV2: 623/2000)]

Listening to the pleasant prompt tone of the system, Zhang Wu slightly raised the corners of his mouth and completely put his mind at ease:
"The Japanese snipers are very experienced. One of them is as good as a captain!"

Blinking his eyes, he had a guess:
"Maybe their rank is Captain!"

Not paying attention to the details, he went to pick up his spoils with his gun.

Having memorized the three-dimensional terrain in his mind, Zhang Wu easily found Shen Teng's body, and after a search, he gained a lot.

A bastard box, two grenades, a dagger, and other items included a water bottle, dry food, bullets, clothes, leather shoes, a ghillie suit, and Zhang Wu even found two packs of cigarettes in his pocket.

After wrapping the things in his clothes, Zhang Wu kicked the body into the ditch to feed the wolves, and then went to find Uesugi.

When he arrived at the U-shaped trough, he searched for a long time and finally found the body with the help of bloodstains on the stone.

"This ghillie suit has a great camouflage effect!"

While searching for equipment, he thought to himself:

"If we upgrade, should we copy the ghillie suit first?"

Judging from the nature of the system, it will definitely release an enhanced camouflage skill. Then it will be easier for him to find the Sakata Regiment's headquarters and snipe the old Japanese Sakata.

But if he couldn't upgrade before the battle of Cang Yun Ridge... After thinking for a moment, he decided to make preparations for both situations. If he could upgrade before the battle of Cang Yun Ridge, he would copy the ghillie suit.

If not, copy Monk Wei first.

With Monk Wei's physical strength, he can go farther, kill more devils, and level up quickly.

However, this attack by the Japanese gave him a perfect excuse to apply for solo action!

With his mind made up, he stripped the corpse of all useful items. The equipment was similar to that on Fukado, except for a 6x telescope, which he threw into his clothes.

Then he carried the Type 97 sniper rifle and the trophies and returned to Panshui Town in a heroic and high-spirited manner.

When Zhang Wu returned to Panshui Town, Li Yunlong was already waiting. He looked at what Zhang Wu was carrying and the sniper rifle with a scope, and asked in disbelief:
"Are there really Japanese devils? How did you find out?"

Zhang Wu was quick-witted and made up a reason:
"A sharpshooter knows a sharpshooter better than anyone else. When we were talking about attacking the blockhouse, we happened to see the reflection of the Japanese's telescope. Fortunately, the moon was big today, otherwise the Japanese would have succeeded in the sneak attack!"

This reason is a bit far-fetched, but Li Yunlong doesn't want to delve into it. In his dictionary, winning the fight is all that matters.

Patting Zhang Wu on the shoulder, he nodded in approval:
"Good job, you didn't embarrass our new group!"

The soldiers of the 9th Company also gathered around, and Gu Dashan and Tian Xichuan took the lead in expressing their gratitude:
"Zhang Wu, thank you for saving our lives!"

"If it weren't for you, the devils would have succeeded!"

"Yes, as long as Zhang Wu is here, no devil can be arrogant!"

Seeing their voices getting louder and louder, Li Yunlong frowned and waved his hand:

"Alright, what are you arguing about so late at night? Go back to your respective posts, strengthen the defense, and don't let the Japanese take advantage of you again!"

"Yes!"

When people dispersed, Zhang Wu took the opportunity to say:

"Captain, the Japanese don't take us seriously. They dare to come even though they know we have already captured Panshui Town!
We must take revenge, otherwise the Japanese will think we are easy to bully!

When we get to Luo Village, you see what I am doing. If I don’t bring back the artillery towers, strongholds, and the lives of ten or a hundred times more Japanese soldiers than the county town, I’m not the sharpshooter Zhang Wu!”

"There is a strong aura, they are soldiers of my father Li Yunlong!"

Li Yunlong recognized Zhang Wu's determination to seek revenge and agreed immediately:
"Okay, when we get to Luo Village, you'll be allowed to act alone and beat up those Japanese sons of bitches!"

Zhang Wu stands at attention and salutes:

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Li Yunlong slapped Zhang Wu's saluting hand away and scolded him with a smile:
"Alright, why are you still showing respect in private? Hurry back and show me what good stuff you brought back!"

Zhang Wu grinned and immediately took out the telescope and handed it to Li Yunlong:
"Captain, you gave me a six-fold gift, so I'll give you a six-fold gift!"

"Six-fold telescope?"

Li Yunlong's eyes lit up, he picked it up and tried it, then nodded with satisfaction:

"Yes, the Japanese sharpshooters are really fucking rich. They even have 6x telescopes that are only available to battalion-level and above!"

When they arrived at the regiment headquarters, Zhang Wu showed all his things to Li Yunlong. Li Yunlong waved his hand and replaced Zhang Wu with a Type 97 sniper rifle.

The next two days were peaceful and uneventful. After the new regiment completed the handover of Panshui Town, it moved into Luo Village overnight with two fully staffed and expanded battalions.

After settling down, Zhang Wu found Li Yunlong. The two spread out the map and began to study where Zhang Wu should attack.
