Bright Sword: I checked in amidst the aftermath of the battle

Chapter 8: Bombarding the Supervisory Team and Earning Merit!

Sun Liancheng's tactical abilities are quite good.

First, they used the guard company to lure the 771st Regiment back to defend, and then took the opportunity to escape. This was a feint attack.

Unfortunately, he encountered Li Yunlong and Wang Yousheng.

With the help of the "golden finger" (a metaphor for a powerful, influential figure), Wang Yousheng mastered all their movements.

The Golden Finger reward points are still rising, and have now accumulated to over 10,000 points.

Simply perfect!

Wang Yousheng was overjoyed. He had thought he could gain points by killing enemies, but he could also increase his points whenever the situation on the battlefield changed.

Outside the temporary command post, the sounds of gunfire and artillery were incessant, and the shouts of soldiers fighting never stopped.

Having transmigrated to this place, Wang Yousheng has not yet killed a single enemy. Why not take this opportunity to practice his skills?

Immediately, Wang Yousheng pulled out a 20-shot Mauser pistol from his waist. This pistol was given to him by Li Yunlong at the regimental command post before he left the New First Regiment.

It's not easy for a new recruit who has been in the army for less than half a year to be able to use a Mauser pistol so quickly.

After all, pistols are generally issued to commanders and soldiers, at least at the platoon leader level or above.

Clearly, Wang Yousheng held a significant place in Li Yunlong's heart.

Wang Yousheng said, "Commander, the fighting outside is so fierce, shouldn't we go take a look?"

Li Yunlong nodded and immediately pulled out his pistol.

The two left the command post. The sky outside was half blackened by the smoke of gunpowder, and the air was filled with wisps of blood mist. The smell was foul, as if they had entered a slaughterhouse.

At the foot of the hillside lay countless corpses of soldiers from both sides.

However, most of them were rebels.

Clearly, the 142nd Regiment was not even a second-rate combat unit, and it suffered countless casualties when it was attacked from both sides by the two main regiments of the Eighth Route Army!

[Combat Detection: Combat aftershocks detected within 1000 meters...]

Sun Liancheng led the way, tearing open an opening and fleeing southeast.

The Japanese cavalry squadron captured the defensive position of the 3rd Battalion of the Southern Hebei Special Service Regiment and moved towards Sun Liancheng.

"not good!"

Wang Yousheng hurriedly said, "Commander, why don't we go directly to the southeast and see what they're protecting?"

Li Yunlong glanced back at Wang Yousheng and nodded: "Yeah, that's what I think too."

Two minutes later, the two arrived at a small hill in the southeast direction.

A company of the 771st Regiment was engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the 142nd Regiment charging towards them.

Dozens of soldiers from the 142nd Regiment charged toward the position like madmen, regardless of whether they were killed or wounded.

Behind the soldiers were several officers armed with identical Nambu-style submachine guns, ready to pull the trigger if even one soldier stepped back.

This is the supervisory team of the 142nd Regiment!

Moreover, Wang Yousheng made a new discovery.

These officers were of high rank, at least majors.

Wang Yousheng thought to himself: It must be one of Sun Liancheng's trusted confidants.

Li Yunlong, with his sharp eyes, also noticed this and laughed, "Damn it, Old Xu has struck it rich this time! Shengzi, did you see those officers with submachine guns? They're not low-ranking; they must have some good stuff!"

"Follow me, let's go!"

Every time Li Yunlong saw an enemy officer, his wolfish nature would erupt; he couldn't wait to take those guys' heads.

Wang Yousheng was also excited; if he killed a few more officers, he could gain merit.

Unlocking intermediate-level testing is just around the corner.

The two men advanced in a roundabout manner and soon jumped into the trench.

boom!

A bullet shot down a soldier operating a Czech light machine gun. Li Yunlong holstered his pistol and picked up the light machine gun, unleashing a hail of bullets.

In an instant, several rebels in the distance landed on their buttocks.

Under the absolute suppression of the light machine guns, the enemy's counterattack was instantly halted.

[Battle Reward: Li Yunlong unleashes his potential, killing 6 enemies, +60 points]

Wang Yousheng held the Mauser pistol and awkwardly cocked the bolt. It was his first time using a Mauser pistol, and he was quite excited.

"bring it on!"

The next moment, Wang Yousheng lay prone on the edge of the trench, pointed his gun at a rebel soldier charging towards him, and pulled the trigger.

boom!

A gunshot rang out, and the recoil from the barrel made Wang Yousheng's arm go numb. The bullet successfully hit the rebel.

However, the accuracy was insufficient, and it only hit the rebel in the right chest.

[Battle Rewards: 1 enemy killed, Quick Draw Proficiency +1, Score +10]

"Only a little bit???"

Wang Yousheng was displeased. During the battle of Cangyunling, when Li Yunlong and his soldiers fought the Japanese, their proficiency level increased by dozens each time, reaching at least ten points. But when it came to him, it only reached one point.

However, Wang Yousheng quickly realized what was going on.

I'm just a new recruit, how can I improve my marksmanship so easily?

The new regiment is full of brave and skilled veterans, so naturally they are promoted quickly.

Wang Yousheng thought to himself: There's no other way but to slowly accumulate experience.

After a few more minutes of fierce fighting, this time Wang Yousheng used eight bullets to eliminate three enemies.

The speed-drawing skill is increasing very slowly, only a little bit each time.

Then, Wang Yousheng's eyes were fixed on several rebel supervising officers in the distance.

[Basic Analysis of the Eye: Too far away to detect]

"Damn it!"

Wang Yousheng cursed under his breath. Looking from this side, it was at least 500 meters away.

The rebel's supervisory team was quite shrewd; they couldn't hit them from a distance.

However, he soon noticed two artillerymen from the 771st Regiment not far away.

The two artillerymen were operating a grenade launcher with a box of shells next to them, and were continuously bombarding the attacking soldiers.

Upon seeing this, Wang Yousheng thought to himself that these two soldiers had acted rashly. If they had taken down the enemy's supervisory team, the rebel suicide squad would naturally not have dared to charge forward.

Wang Yousheng tugged at Li Yunlong's arm and asked, "Commander, the reason the rebels are so frantic must be because of the supervisory team behind them. I think we should eliminate the supervisory team."

"Hmm?" Li Yunlong raised an eyebrow, looked around, and said, "I've noticed too, but this isn't the New First Regiment, so they don't listen to us."

Wang Yousheng added, "Commander, aren't you going to use your personal charm? After all, you even took the blame for the commanders of the 771st and 772nd Regiments during the Battle of Cangyunling."

"Hey! You're really smart, kid. Alright, I'm going to go find them!"

Li Yunlong circled around and came to the two artillerymen.

Li Yunlong said, "Comrade, you're wasting too many shells by firing like this."

"Oh? Li, Commander Li?" An artilleryman looked up, looking somewhat bewildered, wondering why Li Yunlong had come here.

I heard... he should have been demoted to embroidery at the clothing factory...

Li Yunlong pointed to the distant supervising team and laughed, "Let's advance three hundred meters and wipe out the enemy's supervising team."

The artilleryman looked up a few times and replied, "Advancing 300 meters is indeed feasible, but the risk factor is also very high. Without suppressive fire, we can't do it."

"Hmm..." Li Yunlong frowned.

"Commander Li, what are you doing here?" At this moment, a voice came from behind Li Yunlong.

It was Han Dongshan, the deputy commander of the 771st Regiment.

"Old Han, you've come at the right time. Those bastards from the 142nd Regiment, with their supervisory team driving the suicide squads uphill, if they can't stop them, they'll tear open a gap and escape." Li Yunlong said, pointing to the rebels a few hundred meters ahead.

Han Dongshan glanced at it and immediately made a decision: "First Battalion, provide fire support for the artillery advance and wipe out the rebel's supervisory team!"

"yes!"

Before long, Wang Yousheng's golden finger came to give him another hint.

[Battle Rewards: Congratulations on eliminating the rebel commando team, killing 3 major regimental commanders, +600 points, +30 merit points, and 1 lieutenant colonel brigade commander, +500 points, +20 merit points]

Two shells killed four enemy officers.

Wang Yousheng finally laughed with satisfaction.
