The sword starts with copying the sharpshooter's ability

When Ding Wei was thinking about forming the iron triangle in northwest Shanxi, the news that the independent regiment wiped out the 14000th Brigade, eliminated 3 Japanese devils as a whole, and seized three regiment flags was soon reported in the newspapers after the brigade commander's operation.

With the publicity in newspapers, the Eighth Route Army became famous, and people across the country were excited. Those who had money donated money, those who had strength contributed their manpower, and aspiring young people rushed to join the Eighth Route Army.

At the same time, at Dagushan, the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was stationed.

Chu Yunfei saw the newspaper and laughed at the other party's merit and said:
"Brother Ligong, what do you think? I told you that there would be news that the Independent Regiment would wipe out the 29th Brigade, right?"

"The commander has a far-sighted vision, and I admire him!"

After flattering him, Fang Ligong couldn't help but sigh:

"Since the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, there have been few examples of completely annihilating the Japanese brigade-level or higher units. Being able to completely annihilate a regiment of the Japanese is already a remarkable achievement.

But this does not seem to apply to the Independent Regiment. Not to mention the regiment, the Independent Regiment even wiped out two of the Japanese main brigades.

Also, I heard that they used tanks to participate in the battle this time, and carried out an infantry-tank coordinated advance, which allowed them to completely wipe out the 29th Brigade before the Japanese reinforcements arrived!
Commander, infantry-tank coordination tactics are the highest level of infantry tactics. Even many German-equipped divisions of the Central Army cannot do it, but the Independent Regiment has mastered it and fought so well. It's incredible!"

"Haha, Brother Ligong, there's nothing incredible!"

Chu Yunfei pulled his white gloves, put them behind his back, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a look of admiration for Zhang Wu:

"He can shoot down planes in the sky with a rifle, kill tankers in an observation hole less than 10 centimeters square, and quietly infiltrate a heavily guarded airport or even a headquarters. With such a sharpshooter like Zhang Wu, it is normal for the independent regiment to achieve any extraordinary results.

What's more, you and I saw him drive the tank last time. Is it surprising that the independent regiment can master the coordinated tactics of infantry and tanks? "

"That's right, the magician Zhang Wu is really good at creating miracles!"

Fang Ligong nodded in agreement, with a smug look on his face:
“However, with their support, our 358th Regiment also achieved good results this time.

Although the Nakamura Regiment we ambushed was a garrison regiment, it also had 2500 people. According to the conventional 1:5 ratio of the Central Army, we would need 12500 people to tie with the Nakamura Regiment.

Haha, this time we only used twice the strength of Nakamura's regiment - 2 people, and we wiped out more than 5000 of them. Only about 2000 people escaped. It can be said that we almost wiped them out!

As for ourselves, we only suffered more than 2000 casualties, and the casualty ratio reached 1:1.

This record, even if placed in the Central Army, is no worse than their Soviet and German weapons!"

"Hey, Brother Ligong, we can't count it like this!"

Chu Yunfei also showed a hint of pride on his face. He seemed modest, but in fact he said in a very Versailles way:
"This time we are facing the Nakamura Regiment, which has discarded its heavy weapons. Their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced, and they are eager to go north to provide support and have no intention of fighting. This gives us a better opportunity to ambush them.

In addition, we seized weapons and equipment from 2000 people last time, but did not expand the organization, but instead strengthened it to 5000 people. In terms of combat effectiveness, we are no longer what we used to be.

Ha, with the strength of one side and the weakness of the other, we finally achieved a decent result!"

Fang Ligong understood immediately. He stopped dwelling on it and changed the subject and asked:
"Commander, after this battle, in order to defend Heyuan County, the Japanese have withdrawn all the troops outside the county town, such as Dagu Town and Xiji Stronghold, into the county town. Do you think we should seize these positions?
Especially Dagu Town, which can form two outposts with Lijia Town, and the main force can sit in the back, so that they can attack or defend, and they will be invincible! "

"Dagu Town?"

Chu Yunfei took a look at the location of Dagu Town on the map and shook his head:

“The location of Dagu Town is indeed very important, but if we seize it, it will split the independent regiment’s defense zone in Heyuan County into two. Although they have left Heyuan County, their defense zone is still there!

We will need to cooperate with the independent regiment to ambush the Japanese in the future. We cannot make enemies with them over such an insignificant matter!"

Chu Yunfei said as he looked at Fang Ligong:

"One more thing. Step up recruitment and apply to the higher authorities for an expansion of 1 people. With the current momentum of the independent regiment, it will surely reach a size of 2000 people within two months. Our size is too small, and we are no longer qualified to join him in ambushing the Japanese!"

Fang Ligong stood at attention and saluted:

"Yes, Commander, I'll arrange it right away!"

On the other side, at the First Army Headquarters of the Japanese, Lieutenant General Terauchi saw the newspaper and yelled in anger:

"Damn it! They seized the Imperial Army's regiment flag and even put it in the newspaper... The Independent Regiment and the sharpshooter Zhang Wu are dead!"

When he thought that all these were caused by the Independent Regiment and the sharpshooter Zhang Wu, Lieutenant General Terauchi tore the newspaper to pieces in an instant. Still not satisfied, he drew out his general's sword, smashed the newly replaced vase with one blow, and then chopped and hacked around the office to vent his frustration.

Only after he had chopped all the vases into pieces, broken two tables and three chairs, and dug out the Yansupu on the map, did his anger subside a little.

Letting the aide-de-camp clean up the mess, he called the chief of staff to begin discussing a plan of revenge.

After some conspiracy, the two decided to form two Type D divisions.

The Uesugi Division was formed based on the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade, with the addition of the Takeya Regiment in Zhang County and the Ota Regiment in Fu'an.

The other one was based on the 4000th Brigade, which lost 2 people, and two regiments from Linfen and Luxian were drawn to form the Yuechuan Division.

In addition to reaching a scale of 1.1 people, in order to target the tanks of the independent regiment, battalion-level anti-tank guns and regiment-level rapid-fire artillery squadrons must be brought in for weapons and equipment.

The division's direct subordinates also increased to one 1mm field artillery battalion and one 75mm mountain artillery battalion.

In addition to these, they also required that the Japanese soldiers at the regiment level or above who were out on missions below the Type C division level were not allowed to carry the regiment flag.

Their regimental flag is the symbol of their emperor, but six of them were seized in succession by the independent regiment. If it is seized again, their emperor will be humiliated and lose face!
When they were starting to form, the brigade commander's telegram was also sent to the independent regiment.

Seeing that in addition to the three commendations for Zhang Wu, there was also an honorary commendation for the independent regiment "Hard Bone Regiment", Zhao Gang was overjoyed and laughed at Li Yunlong:

"Haha, the brigade commander really gave our independent regiment face. Not only did he give Zhang Wu two more commendations, he also gave our regiment the honor of a 'hard-boned regiment'!" "What's so strange about this?"

Li Yunlong looked at him with one eye wide open and one eye narrowed, and said with a pout:
"We exchanged these for our actual combat achievements and weapons and equipment. Don't even mention giving me face. If the brigade commander doesn't value our regiment, which regiment will he value?"

As he said this, he shouted to Duan Peng outside the door:

"Duan Peng, take the messenger and call the whole regiment to assemble. I want to announce the commendation of our Zhang Wu and our regiment in public!"

"Yes!"

Duan Peng agreed and immediately took the messenger to notify the troops to assemble.

After the troops had assembled, Li Yunlong awarded Zhang Wu a commendation in public, making Zhang Wu once again the most handsome man in the independent regiment, and read out the honorary commendation for the "Hard-Boned Regiment".

A tough group!

The soldiers of the Independent Regiment were all excited. There were only a few such regimental-level honorary awards in the entire Eighth Route Army, but the Independent Regiment had won it, and it was the second time. This showed how much the superiors valued the Independent Regiment.

Li Yunlong took the opportunity to set up Zhang Wu as a benchmark to inspire the soldiers, and then launched large-scale military training and stepped up reorganization to prepare for the next major war.

Zhang Wu did not need to participate, and the tank soldiers were all handed over to the veterans for training. He just had to quietly be the most handsome guy in his independent regiment.

With nothing to do, he entered the system space and wanted to check the descriptions of the other three skills.

As the scale of the battle grows, the threat posed to him by the Japanese becomes greater and greater, and it is time to put the upgrading of auxiliary skills and life-saving skills on the agenda.

System, open my properties panel:
[Level: LV15]

[Experience: 13460/16000]

[Occupation: Sniper directly under the independent regiment (deputy regiment level)]

[Skill: Lock 2 (upgradeable)]

[Skill: Telescope 2 (upgradable)]

[Skill: Disguise 2 (upgradable)]

[Skill: Early Warning (Upgradeable)]

[Skill: Absolute Defense (Upgradeable)]

[Skills: Physical Fitness 2 (Upgradable)]

[Skill: Night Vision]

[Skills: Li Yunlong Wisdom]

[Skill: Language]

[Skill: Special Warfare]

[Skill: Chariot Driving]

[Copy Ability Exchange Voucher: 0 (Can be used to purchase skill upgrade vouchers, purchase ratio 1:1)]

Still 2540 experience points left!
Looking at the experience points, Zhang Wu raised the corner of his mouth in satisfaction. A Japanese 2th Brigade helped him level up by more than and a half levels.

After giving a thumbs up to the 2th Brigade in his heart, he clicked on the upgrade instructions for [Warning], [Disguise ], and [Absolute Defense] one by one:

[Warning, use the skill upgrade coupon for 1 to upgrade to Warning 2.

Early Warning 2, you can set the enemies or hostility within the sensing range and issue an alarm to the skill user.

The sensing range can be set to 1000 meters, 1500 meters, 2000 meters! 】

[Disguise 2, can be upgraded to Disguise 2 using the 3nd Skill Upgrade Coupon.

Disguise 3, when used, the host and the objects it touches can blend into the surrounding environment within 2 hours when static, or within 20 minutes when dynamic. The effect disappears when attacked. It can only be used 3 times a day. 】

[Absolute Defense, use the Skill Upgrade Coupon 1 to upgrade to Absolute Defense 2.

Absolute Defense 2 can protect the skill equipper from a bomb attack, including but not limited to hand grenades, land mines, artillery shells, grenades, aerial bombs, high-explosive bombs, etc. (limited to three times a day)]

Looking at the upgrade instructions for the three skills, Zhang Wu paused on [Warning 3] for 2 second and decided that the next time he got a skill upgrade coupon, he would upgrade [Absolute Defense] first.

Although the effect of [Warning 2] has doubled, the warning range of 1000 meters is basically enough for him, so it is better to upgrade the life-saving skills first.

We still have to kill the Japs!

Thinking of this, he exited the system space and went straight to Li Yunlong to apply for a solo fight. No matter which skill he upgraded, he would have to pave the way with the lives of the Japanese devils!

But as soon as he left the dormitory, he ran into Duan Peng who came to look for him in a hurry:

"Zhang Wu, our captain wants you to go over there quickly. There is an emergency operation!"
