The sword starts with copying the sharpshooter's ability

Chapter 97 Mawang Temple

Kong Jie nodded thoughtfully, then realized that Li Yunlong was mocking him, and retorted unhappily:
"You are kidding, aren't you? You are so experienced?"

It was just a joke, so Li Yunlong didn't take it seriously. He asked Zhao Gang to take Kong Jie to distribute weapons and equipment, and then urged the independent regiment to get ready.

Two days later, the independent regiment was fully equipped. Although there were still three battalions, each battalion had more than 2 people, three heavy machine guns, 3 light machine guns, and a rifle for each person.

A grenade launcher battalion, with 62 grenade launchers, provides fire support.

A heavy firepower reinforcement platoon, with two Type 2 infantry guns and two 2mm mortars, provides long-range fire support.

After a brief pre-war mobilization, Li Yunlong led the independent regiment, carrying weapons and ammunition, and three days of dry food and water, and left Zhaojiabao under the cover of night and headed for Mawang Temple.

Ma Wang Temple runs east-west, with a total length of 3 kilometers and an arc of 150 degrees. The mountains on both sides are 150 meters away from the road. Although they are not steep, the terrain is high and the entire road can be clearly overlooked.

The reverse slope can be used to set up a position, and there is a mountain stream less than 200 meters behind to hide troops, making it an ideal ambush point.

After a forced march of more than 60 kilometers, they arrived at Mawang Temple. Under the leadership of their respective commanders, the soldiers of the independent regiment were busy familiarizing themselves with the reverse slope positions, building firepower points, arranging camouflage, etc.

Li Yunlong once again divided the grenade launcher battalion into three companies and placed them behind the three battalions to provide artillery support.

As for the two infantry guns and two 2mm mortars, he placed them in the mountains 2 kilometers away from the highway. These were his treasures and no mistakes could be made.

He also assigned Liang Shuisheng the artillery parameters for several points where the Japanese might build up heavy firepower after launching the attack, and placed a messenger every 200 meters to minimize the temporary adjustment time of the artillery as much as possible.

While he was setting up the artillery position, Zhang Wu, wearing a ghillie suit, looked for a suitable sniper point.

According to the Japanese's marching habits, heavy weapons would definitely be placed at the rear, so he had to place the sniper point at a position behind the center line of the arc.

Especially this time, since he didn't know how many heavy weapons the Japanese were carrying, he placed the sniper position further back.

It was not until he reached the rear of the truncated 2nd Battalion that he found a suitable position as his sniper point.

This position is 250 meters away from the highway, and can radiate to a large section of the rear road and attack the center line of the arc top.

There are many shrubs and rocks in front of you, and there is a mountain road behind you that allows you to quickly detour. There are also good shooting spots on the detour.

After choosing a position and thinking about the specific attack tactics, he felt that the Japanese were numerous this time and the ambush would definitely not be short. With his shooting rate, there was a high possibility that he would be discovered by the Japanese again!

There were no suitable caves in the surroundings, either too far away or too shallow, so he decided that if the Japanese bombarded him, he would use [Absolute Defense] to withstand it, then move to another position, enter [Camouflage] dynamic mode and fight again.

Tactically, he must take the Japs seriously!
Having made all the necessary preparations, he told Li Yunlong his position, took out bullets and filled the magazine of the Carl 98K. While resting at his position, he turned on the [lock], [telescope] and [absolute defense], and was ready to shoot at any time.

Although maintaining this state will shorten the life of the firearm, we cannot lose the ability to respond to emergencies just because we cannot bear to shorten the life of the firearm!
On the other hand, the brigade commander thought about it and analyzed the situation with the chief of staff for a long time. He did not let the 772nd Regiment and the New nd Regiment make a feint towards the county town the next day as agreed in advance.

He just had two regiments set up an ambush on the road between the county seat and Mawang Temple.

He felt that they could not overly provoke the Japanese in the county. What if they realized that they were planning to ambush the reinforcements?
The Eighth Route Army has used the tactic of encircling a point and attacking its reinforcements many times. The Japanese are not fools, it is impossible for them not to guess it!
He had already robbed Li Yunlong in advance, so he couldn't make things more difficult for Li Yunlong!
But what he didn't expect was that Colonel Toriyama of the Hexian mining area was an old dog.

Even without the urging from the county, Colonel Toriyama ordered the Ogawa Battalion, which was supporting the county, to change its marching plan just to be on the safe side.

At the same time, Zhang Wu, who didn't know that both sides had made changes, waited patiently until the afternoon, when the [Warning] finally began to sound the alarm in his mind: [Warning, warning, the northwest direction will be threatened, type: enemy, please respond as soon as possible! Warning, warning...]

coming!

Zhang Wu's eyes lit up, he instantly pulled the bolt to load the bullet, and pointed the muzzle of the gun towards the entrance of Ma Wang Temple.

He didn't have to wait long before six motorcycles led the way, and the marching infantry, mule carts, and trucks appeared in their sight.

When they reached the range of 600 meters, Zhang Wu marked the Japanese commander while counting their heavy firepower. At the end, he couldn't help but smack his lips.

This group of Japanese devils had the strength of a battalion, but their heavy firepower consisted of only two standard infantry guns, nine heavy machine guns, 2 grenade launchers, and 9 light machine guns. They were not even as good as the Fukado Battalion!
But their independent regiment is no longer what it used to be!
He felt that he had to fight faster, otherwise he would not be able to eat the meat!

Da da da

As the motorcycles passed by with regular strafing, the scouts explored and then the infantry entered the east-west road of Mawangmiao.

After the Japanese scouts left, Li Yunlong immediately ordered the soldiers hiding in the mountain stream to return to their respective ambush positions and prepare for the attack.

Zhang Wu also put his finger on the trigger, moving with the major in the passenger seat of the truck, waiting for Li Yunlong's attack signal.

almost!

When the third infantry squadron in the middle of the Japanese soldiers just passed the top of the arc, Li Yunlong raised his pistol and fired at the Japanese soldiers:
"beat!"

Da da da, tong tong, boom boom
Seeing Li Yunlong's signal, the independent regiment's light and heavy weapons opened fire at the same time. With nearly the number of heavy weapons of a regiment, more than 1 Japanese soldiers were taken away in just one wave!

Zhang Wu was not to be outdone. Without waiting for the Japanese major to react, he pulled the trigger.

Snapped

The 7.92mm rifle bullet blended into the rain of bullets, and in a flash, the Japanese major was pinned to the passenger seat.

[Ding, kill a Japanese major and gain 80 experience points. (2500/16000)]

As the system prompted, Zhang Wu quickly pulled the bolt to load the bullet, aimed at the next Japanese captain, and when the [lock] was pulled, he pulled the trigger again.

Snapped

The Japanese captain was about to lower his head, but he was not as fast as Zhang Wu's bullet and his head was shot through in an instant.

[Ding, kill a Japanese captain and gain 60 experience points. (2560/16000)]

In this way, Zhang Wu took advantage of the Japanese soldiers' lack of reaction and quickly killed the fat one.

But the firepower of the independent regiment was too strong. He only managed to capture one lieutenant and one second lieutenant, and had to turn his guns towards the infantry artillery.
