The sword starts with copying the sharpshooter's ability

Fat enough!

Listening to the pleasant prompt tone of the system, Zhang Wu curled up the corners of his mouth slightly. It is still the most satisfying to beat the senior commander of the Japanese devils!
While thinking about this, his hands kept moving. He was going to beat the Japanese bastard soon. He had to kill a few colonels and lieutenant colonels before the Japanese could react!
While quickly pulling the bolt to load the bullet, the muzzle of his gun found the shooting angle of the colonel next to him, and when [Lock 3] was pulled, he fired a shot.

Snapped

When the colonel saw that Lieutenant General Maruyama was dead, he realized that something was wrong. Before he could hide from the observation port, Zhang Wu shot him in the head, and he was reunited with Lieutenant General Maruyama.

[Ding Kill a Japanese colonel and gain 180 experience points. (1088/16000)]

Listening to the pleasant prompt tone of the system, Zhang Wu continued to quickly pull the bolt to load the bullet, constantly looking for the shooting angle of the Japanese senior commander and launching a sniper attack.

But the Japanese reacted quickly. After he killed a colonel, three lieutenant colonels and one major and gained 1 experience points, the remaining colonel-level commanders of the division headquarters all avoided the observation ports.

"Damn it, you guys hid fast!"

After making a nasty complaint, Zhang Wu immediately took out his gun and started to move away.

It’s not that he can’t hit the Japanese tanks from his current position, but that the Japanese tanks are moving, and he has to find a shooting angle no matter what.

He might as well just shoot while moving, and try to shorten the time spent finding angles and on the road.

This time the Japanese have 15 Type 37 light tanks. He can no longer attack the driver first and then come back to attack the commander as he did before. He has to destroy the tanks in one go, otherwise the mm cannon on them will be too much of a threat!

While he was looking for the shooting angle of the tank, all the Japanese soldiers reacted.

"Enemy attack!"

While the Japanese were shouting warnings, under the leadership of their respective commanders, their infantry threw grenades, using the smoke from the explosions as cover, and used mule carts and trucks as bunkers, and built defensive positions with fast-resistance rifles, light machine guns, and grenade launchers. After the heavy machine guns were assembled, they joined in, forming a high and low firepower network with the rifles and light machine guns, and soon stabilized the position.

"吆西!"

Although they were still at a disadvantage due to the independent regiment's first move, the colonel who took over the command was very satisfied with their reaction speed after receiving the report that they had stabilized the situation.

The only drawback is that they are divided into four sections and cannot support each other.

"Any division that dares to attack the Imperial Army will die!"

After swearing fiercely, he immediately gave orders to the signalmen and messengers waiting:
"Let the Empire's armored vehicles cover the infantry and launch a coordinated infantry-tank counterattack against the Eighth Route Army that is attacking the Imperial Army!

Let each regiment quickly build artillery positions and cooperate with the armored vehicles following behind each regiment to launch a counterattack!

Let the Imperial snipers scattered in each regiment carry out precise shooting at the heavy firepower and middle and lower-level officers on the front-line positions of the Eighth Route Army to disrupt their attack rhythm!
Have the guard battalion release smoke bombs at the division's artillery regiment to cover the artillery regiment's formation and provide artillery support to the warriors in front! "

"Hai!"

The signalmen and messengers immediately went down to send messages and pass on orders.

After a little thought, the commanding colonel seemed to have thought of something. He called a messenger again and ordered:
"Have the guard battalion dispatch an observer to carefully monitor the advance of the division's armored vehicles. If they find any vehicles that have not been hit but have stopped for no reason, report immediately!
I don't know if the Eighth Route Army ambushing us is the Independent Regiment or the Sharpshooter Zhang Wu. We must give up the counterattack immediately because the Sharpshooter Zhang Wu is too powerful!"

"Hai!"

The second wave of messengers went down again to deliver the message.

As his order was issued, the entire Maruyama Division began to adjust according to the order, and the tanks began to turn. While carrying out a heavy strafing and artillery attack on the independent regiment, they also covered the infantry that followed and carried out a coordinated infantry-tank counter-advance.

The tanks at the division headquarters were even worse. They wanted to line up 12 tanks in a row to cover the advance of more infantry.

But how could Zhang Wu let them succeed?
He had already been looking for the shooting angle of the tanks. As soon as two of the 12 tanks were adjusted, Zhang Wu aimed at the head of the tank driver and, with the help of [Lock 2], pulled the trigger directly.

Snapped

The driver was steering, and as soon as he tilted the joystick, Zhang Wu hit him in the head.

[Ding, kill a Japanese tank driver, gain 60 experience points. (1768/16000)]

Listening to the pleasant prompt tone of the system, Zhang Wu quickly pulled the bolt to load the bullet without stopping, found the shooting angle of the tank squadron leader, immediately swung the gun over, and did the same thing again, firing another shot.

Snapped

The tank squadron leader was about to order the gunner to reload the shells, but before he could finish his words, he was nailed to the machine gun position.

[Ding, kill a Japanese tank squadron leader and gain 120 experience points. (1888/16000)]

Without waiting for the system's pleasant prompt sound, Zhang Wu pulled the bolt again to load the bullet, aimed at the gunner's head, and fired a shot.

Snapped

The gunner had just discovered that the squadron captain was dead, and before he could hide from the observation port, he was shot in the head by Zhang Wu, and the dead body fell on the turret on the spot.

[Ding, kill a Japanese tank gunner, gain experience 65. (1953/16000)]

In this way, Zhang Wu used his skills to the extreme, madly sniping the Japanese tanks while moving.

In less than 2 minutes, he killed all 11 drivers, 11 gunners, 11 squad leader and 1 tank commanders of the remaining 10 tanks, allowing him to gain another 2165 experience points.

While attacking these tanks, Zhang Wu also relied on the 3-meter wide field of view of [Telescope 1500] to scan the entire division headquarters. After finding no snipers, he took his gun and ran to the rear of the rd Regiment.

"Baga, it's the magic spear Zhang Wu!"

When he was running to the rear of the 3rd Regiment, he received a report from the observer. The Japanese colonel in command said confidently, his face changed drastically. He immediately called the signalman and ordered:
"Quickly send a message to the first to third regiments. The ones attacking us are the independent regiment and Zhang Wu, the sharpshooter. Tell them to stop the counterattack immediately. While the battle line is long and Zhang Wu has not yet hit them, quickly concentrate firepower and connect with each other!
Then let them send out all observers to carefully watch the direction in which the tanks are advancing. If the sharpshooter Zhang Wu is fast, then find him and kill him with cannons!
Even if you can't kill him, you have to delay his attack speed to buy time for you to connect with each other!

Sharpshooter Zhang Wu and the Independent Regiment are too powerful. Only by supporting each other can we hold out until reinforcements arrive!
Hi Ya Ku, Hi Ya Ku! "

"Hai!"

The signalman immediately went down to send the message.

Feeling unsafe, he called in a second wave of signalmen and gave the order:

"Send a telegram to the headquarters for help. The Maruyama Division was ambushed by two divisions of the Eighth Route Army in Wupangou, Fu'an, including the Independent Regiment and the sharpshooter Zhang Wu.

"Maruyama Division Commander and 12 Type light tanks have all been destroyed. I request Commander Suzusa to send combat guidance as soon as possible, especially the fastest aircraft, otherwise the Maruyama Division will all be destroyed!"

"Hai!"

The second wave of signalmen went down again to send messages.

After thinking for a while, he called the messenger and gave the order:

“Let the artillery regiment speed up the construction of the positions. After the sharpshooter Zhang Wu has defeated the chariots of the Empire, he will definitely attack them.

They must make good use of this time to cover the Imperial Warriors who are connected to each other, while causing the greatest possible casualties to help the division hold out until reinforcements arrive!

Let the two guard battalions assign all observers to observe in advance the direction that can attack the artillery regiment, so that when the sharpshooter Zhang Wu comes back, he can be found in the shortest time possible.

Then let the two guard battalions show the spirit of Bushido and divide them into three squadrons to form a human wall in front of the artillery regiment. This will reduce the independent regiment's attack on the artillery and delay the sniper attack of the sharpshooter Zhang Wu.

Otherwise, the entire artillery regiment will be destroyed. Without the support of heavy artillery, they will not be able to escape the fate of being destroyed!"

"Hai!"

The messenger also hurried down to deliver the message.

"Baga, the sharpshooter Zhang Wu, the independent regiment is dead!"

Just as the Maruyama Division began to make adjustments against Zhang Wu, Lieutenant General Suzusa, who received a telegram for help at the First Army Headquarters, was so angry that he cursed and, following the fine tradition of the First Army, picked up a vase and smashed it to the ground.

"Commander, time is running out. Let's quickly give combat guidance to the Maruyama Division!"

His chief of staff was still sober and advised:

"We should dispatch the Taiyuan Airport's reserve mixed flight squadron to Fu'an Wupangou immediately to provide combat guidance!
Then let the 386st Division and the th Division give up the task of attacking the th Brigade Headquarters and support the Maruyama Division as quickly as possible.

As long as the Maruyama Division can hold out for two days, our two Type B divisions will be able to form a huge encirclement on the periphery and swallow up the Independent Regiment and the two divisions of the Eighth Route Army in one swoop!

If your Excellency the Commander's strategy succeeds, the effect will definitely be better than destroying their brigade headquarters!

Especially the Independent Regiment and the sharpshooter Zhang Wu, if they die, it will not only save the First Army's reputation, but also be a huge encouragement to North China and even the entire Expeditionary Force!"

Seeing that the Chief of Staff was so clear-headed, the suggestion he made instantly became his strategy. Lieutenant General Suzusa nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Hey, just do as you say!

Order the Maruyama Division to hold out for two days, and let the 2st and th Divisions complete revenge for the Empire! "

"Hai!"

The chief of staff personally went to send the message with the aide-de-camp.

At the same time, Li Yunlong had been observing the battlefield, and he was the first to notice the Japanese's change of formation.

"Oh no! The Japanese have discovered Zhang Wu!"

Li Yunlong was very smart. He immediately figured out the fundamental reason why the Japanese changed their formation. He immediately made adjustments:
"Quick, tell the battalions at the Japanese's breakpoint to hold their positions regardless of how they fight. Never let the Japanese retreat. Tell Shuisheng to dispatch an artillery battalion that suppresses the Japanese's battalion-level infantry artillery and anti-tank guns. Divide them into groups of three to bomb the Japanese's advance positions at the breakpoint!
Let all the grenade launcher battalions separate and release smoke bombs 50 meters behind them. The Japanese want to target our Zhang Wu, but I won't let them do as they wish.

In addition to this one, the grenade launcher battalion at the fracture point, blow up the Japanese army line behind the Iron Turtle!

The little devils still want to fight back? Humph, then use your head to hit my shells! "

"Yes!"

Several waves of messengers immediately went down to deliver the message.

Looking at the messenger's back, Zhao Gang asked with some trepidation:
"Old Li, bombing like this is only a temporary solution, it's better to let Zhang Wu stop the Japanese tanks..."

"Didn't our Zhang Wu do any work?"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Yunlong, who glared at him and said unhappily:

"Didn't you see that the 12 tanks at the Japanese division headquarters didn't make any movement? If it weren't for Zhang Wu, the Japanese over there would be advancing even faster!"

Seeing that Zhao Gang was silent, Li Yunlong hummed with satisfaction and comforted him:

"Don't worry, you know how fast our Zhang Wu is. The terrain is also in his favor this time. The Japanese devils can't make any waves!"

As he spoke, he looked towards the rear of the Third Regiment, as if he was talking to Zhao Gang, or to himself:
"Zhang Wu, you have to hurry up, otherwise we will not only blow up such a good iron turtle, but once the Japanese are connected head to tail and support each other, it will be difficult for us to kill them. We may even let them drag us down until reinforcements arrive. By then, let alone reap the benefits, it will be a problem whether we can win!"

His worries were completely unnecessary. Zhang Wu had magical skills at his disposal, so how could he let him down?

Before the independent regiment could start adjusting, the six tanks at the rear of the 6rd Regiment came into Zhang Wu's firing range.

He also saw a large number of observers appearing, but he didn't care.

With the [Early Warning], these observers could not threaten him. Instead, the tanks that changed their advance direction made his attack speed even faster!
There was no way he would let the Japanese succeed and increase the casualties of the independent regiment!

He quickly found a shooting angle of the tank driver. Without stopping, he swung his gun over and aimed it at the driver's head. With the help of [Lock 3], he fired a shot.

He also saw a large number of observers appearing, but with the [Warning] in place, these observers were ineffective in threatening him!
On the contrary, the tanks that changed their direction of advance were the biggest threat to the independent regiment!
Snapped

The tank driver was moving swiftly, but before he could turn again, Zhang Wu shot him in the head.

[Ding, kill a Japanese tank driver, gain 60 experience points. (4178/16000)]

Listening to the pleasant prompt tone of the system, Zhang Wu quickly pulled the bolt to load the bullet, found the shooting angle of the tank gunner, and repeated the same method, firing another shot.

Snapped

The gunner was also nailed to death in the turret in an instant, following the tank driver's fate.

[Ding, kill a Japanese tank gunner, gain experience 65. (4243/16000)]

Next, under his sniping, the remaining tank commander, the other two Type 2 light tanks and three Type 3 super light tanks were all killed by him in less than a minute, allowing him to gain another 1 experience points, while all six tanks became iron coffins.

"Still want to target me? Humph, no way!"

Looking at the Japanese observer who was still searching like a headless fly, Zhang Wu curled up the corner of his mouth with a hint of sneer. He continued to move forward with his gun while scanning the Japanese positions for snipers.

Got it!

After running less than 200 meters, a red dot of the Japanese soldier marked as a sniper appeared in the corner behind a mule cart.

He quickly pulled the bolt to load the bullet, and after finding the shooting angle of the Japanese sniper, he immediately aimed at the sniper's head and fired a shot.

Snapped

The sniper had just found a target who was suspected to be the company commander, and before he could stick out his tongue to test the surrounding environment and make fine adjustments to the muzzle of the gun, he was shot through the head by Zhang Wu.

[Ding, kill a Japanese sniper, gain 60 experience points. (5153/16000)]

At this moment, in front of the range of his detour, smoke began to rise from the smoke bombs thrown by the Independent Regiment.

smoke bomb!
Looking at the increasingly thick smoke, Zhang Wu's eyes lit up. With the cover of the smoke, he could snipe the Japanese more confidently and boldly!
Long live Li Yunlong's smoke!

After giving Li Yunlong a thumbs up in his heart, Zhang Wu moved even faster.

At the same time, seeing that all the tanks of the Third Regiment had stopped moving, Li Yunlong immediately understood that Zhang Wu had succeeded!

"Haha, what did I just say?"

Li Yunlong excitedly punched the air and pointed in the direction of the Third Regiment. He laughed triumphantly at Zhao Gang and said:

"I knew that Zhang Wu's speed couldn't be slow. How about it? It's only been a little over a minute, and all six Iron Turtle tanks of the Third Regiment have been destroyed by Zhang Wu!"

Zhao Gang quickly looked in the direction indicated by Li Yunlong, and when he saw the result, he breathed a sigh of relief:

"Yes, it was our Zhang Wu who brought it back. No one else could have stopped the attack so quickly... No, this time he directly destroyed 6 tanks!"

"That's right, how bad can my soldiers be?"

With a proud expression on his face, Li Yunlong gave an order to the messenger beside him:

"Go, inform Shuisheng and ask him to withdraw the artillery battalion that was just adjusted in 15 minutes and continue to bombard the original Japanese infantry artillery and anti-tank guns.

He was told to withdraw the three artillery battalions that were bombarding the Japanese artillery regiment half an hour later, and to divide the field artillery battalion into groups of two to join in the suppression of the Japanese regiment-level mountain artillery squadron and rapid-fire artillery squadron.

The other two mountain artillery battalions were divided into groups of one gun each, and dispersedly bombarded the Japanese's heavy firepower.

Our Zhang Wu has a large attack range and can hit an entire artillery regiment in one go, so there’s no need to waste shells on those three artillery battalions!
In addition to Shuisheng, tell the infantry battalions and grenade launcher battalions to stop reinforcing their firepower on the Japanese enemy's cutoff points after 15 minutes and to return to suppress the light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers!
After the Japs know that all their bastards have been killed, they will definitely disperse their heavy firepower and let all soldiers get close to the Japs in advance to prevent the Japs from wasting our time! "

"Yes!"

A group of messengers immediately went down to deliver the message.

Looking at the messenger's back, Zhao Gang smiled and said with emotion:
"If we want to win as quickly as possible, we still have to focus on Zhang Wu! This guy is our group's biggest contributor this time!"

"I didn't say anything!"

Li Yunlong waved his hand and said directly:

"His current achievements are worthy of me applying for a commendation from the commander of the division for him!"

While they were thinking about rewarding Zhang Wu, Zhang Wu, relying on the blessing of [Physical Fitness 3], the cover of smoke, and the advantage of terrain, killed another sniper from the Third Regiment, all 15 Type 12 ultra-light tanks from the Second and First Regiments, and 2 snipers from the two regiments in less than 4 minutes, and gained a total of 1880 experience points.

From then on, all the tanks and snipers of the Maruyama Regiment were destroyed.

After destroying the tank, he immediately returned with his gun.

It’s time to attack the Japanese artillery regiment, gain a lot of experience and level up quickly!

He only needs 9000 experience points to upgrade his [Telescope 4] and reach an attack range of 1900 meters. Not only can he bring the entire artillery regiment into the attack range, but he can also hit the mountain artillery squadron and rapid-fire artillery squadron of the Third Regiment without changing position!
Just when he was in the tank, he paid attention. The 1800rd Regiment was less than meters away from his sniper point!
Having made up his mind, he ran even faster.

At the same time, the Japanese colonel in command also received news that all their tanks were destroyed.

"Baga, the magic spear Zhang Wu is really amazing!"

After cursing in anger, the Japanese colonel felt even more urgency. In less than 20 minutes, the entire Maruyama Division received bad news one after another.

In addition to the division commander being killed, the tanks were destroyed, and all the snipers were destroyed. The actions of the various regiments connected to each other were blocked and were on the verge of bankruptcy!
If he hadn't received a reply from the headquarters, their plane would have arrived in less than an hour, and the Japanese colonel would have fallen into complete despair.

Without time to think about anything else, he was forced to call the signalman and make another adjustment:
"Send a message to the three regiments, telling them that they don't need to connect head to tail anymore. The independent regiment's firepower is too strong, and they have the sharpshooter Zhang Wu. Tell them to conserve their strength and reduce casualties. When the imperial planes arrive, they can attack the Eighth Route Army's defenses, open up the connecting passages, and support each other."

After a pause, he added:
"I have requested combat guidance from the headquarters. The Empire's planes will arrive in half an hour at most. Let them tell the warriors this good news to boost morale!"

"Hai!"

The signalman immediately went down to send the message.

After thinking for a while, he called the messenger and gave the order:

"Have two guard battalions mobilize all infantry artillery, anti-tank guns, and one battalion's grenade launchers. When the artillery regiment suffers a large number of casualties, immediately determine the direction of the bullets' origin without asking for instructions, and use artillery to carry out covering bombardment behind the smoke range of the independent regiment!
Then have the observers record the rate of casualties among the artillerymen. Once it slows down, immediately record the bombing location. Repeat this cycle to mark the approximate location of the sharpshooter Zhang Wu. When the Empire's planes come over, use smoke bombs to guide these locations and let the planes bomb him to death!"

In his heart he added:
The sharpshooter Zhang Wu is really too powerful!
"Hai!"

The messenger agreed and went down to deliver the message.

While the Japanese were making adjustments, Zhang Wu also returned to his original sniper position.

Just as he adjusted his shooting posture and had not yet pulled the bolt to load the bullet, the three artillery battalions of the independent regiment withdrew their bombardment of the Japanese artillery regiment.

Li Yunlong’s timing is really accurate!
His eyes lit up, and after Zhang Wu gave Li Yunlong a thumbs up again, he quickly pulled the bolt to load the bullet while marking the red dots of the Japanese field gunners and mountain gunners in the smoke.
