Sword of Light: Humanoid Self-Propelled Artillery

Chapter 46 Type 97 Sniper Rifle

However, what Wang Gensheng didn't expect was that on the next morning, Baili Xiu, the sharpshooter of the third battalion, found Wang Gensheng early in the morning and said to him:
"Battalion Commander, take me with you when you attack the Japanese bunkers! I joined the Eighth Route Army just to fight the Japanese!"

Wang Gensheng also attaches great importance to the ideas of this sharpshooter. Besides, it is more secure to have such a sharpshooter with him.

After all, it was still a bit risky to press the Japanese bunker cordon and gamble whether the Japanese dared to open fire, as we did yesterday.

Moreover, if we bring one more person, the captured weapons and equipment can be divided equally between the two horses, so Wang Gensheng won't have to lead the horses, and he can return faster.

Thinking of this, Wang Gensheng nodded immediately and said:

"Okay! Then just follow me and go attack the Japanese bunker! Oh, and change your clothes into normal clothes!"

After talking to Kong Jie again, Wang Gensheng took the sharpshooter Baili Xiu on horseback and headed towards the third Japanese bunker.

This time the bunker was located seventy miles away from Wangjia Village. In fact, there were not many Japanese bunkers within a hundred miles of Wangjia Village, only eleven in total.

After the last battle and yesterday's battle, there are only nine bunkers left for Wang Gensheng to take down.

If all goes well, it will only take nine days for the New Second Regiment to completely control this area.

However, when rushing to the Japanese bunker, Baili Xiu asked the doubts in his heart and said to Wang Gensheng:
"Battalion Commander, why aren't you wearing the uniform of the Eighth Route Army?"

"The Japanese bunker has a 150-meter cordon. As long as you don't wear an Eighth Route Army uniform and don't cross that cordon, the Japanese won't shoot and waste bullets. When we attack the Japanese bunker, just watch from 300 meters away and hold the line! Yesterday, I threw a grenade into the Japanese bunker from the 150-meter cordon and took it down!"

As expected, Baili Xiu was surprised when he heard Wang Gensheng's words:
"One hundred and fifty meters? How much strength does that take?"

Wang Gensheng did not explain much to Baili Xiu's shock. Should he tell him that he had a golden finger, so he would become stronger with each battle, and in the future he would be able to easily throw 200 meters, not to mention 150 meters?

After more than an hour, Wang Gensheng reached the destination. After camouflaging Baili Xiu with weeds and telling him to find a better shooting spot to lie down, Wang Gensheng swaggered towards the Japanese bunker with two grenades with the safety pins pulled out.

However, what Wang Gensheng didn't know was that the Japanese had already known about the Japanese bunker that Wang Gensheng had destroyed yesterday, so yesterday, the Japanese had notified all the Japanese in the area that they could open fire if they encountered unidentified people within 200 meters.

Therefore, when Wang Gensheng walked within 200 meters, the Japanese's light machine gun opened fire without hesitation.

Wang Gensheng was unable to react in time and was shot several times in the chest. Although the bullets did not penetrate the bulletproof steel plate on Wang Gensheng's chest, the impact force generated by the continuous collision of multiple bullets knocked Wang Gensheng to the ground. However, just when Wang Gensheng thought he would be shot to death by the Japanese devils.

Baili Xiu, who was hiding three hundred meters away, fired a shot, and the bullet accurately hit the Japanese light machine gunner.

Suddenly, the Japanese machine guns stopped firing, and Wang Gensheng took advantage of this opportunity to quickly get up and run. Of course, when the machine gunner was killed, the assistant gunner immediately took his place, but unfortunately, Baili Xiu was watching him!
Just as the secondary shooter took over, Baili Xiu shot the secondary shooter in the head with another bullet.

But at this moment, Baili Xiu suddenly felt as if he was being stared at by a vicious wolf, and all the hairs on his body stood up.

So without any other thoughts, Baili Xiu instinctively turned over, but a bullet still pierced Baili Xiu's arm. With his arm pierced, Baili Xiu lost the ability to continue shooting.

Accurate shooting at a distance of 300 meters requires extremely high stability, and after Baili Xiu's arm was shot through, he was no longer able to perform such a high-precision shooting.

Baili Xiu also knew that he was finished, because the Japanese soldier who could hit him at a distance of 300 meters must be a Japanese soldier with superb shooting skills, so he would not be given the time and opportunity to get up and escape. However, just when Baili Xiu thought that he would be defeated here for the first time in fighting the Japanese soldiers today.

At this time, Wang Gensheng had already thrown the two grenades in his hand into the Japanese bunker one after another.

That’s right, after Wang Gensheng was knocked down by the machine gun, he didn’t think about running back, because Wang Gensheng knew that he couldn’t run back, and he also believed that Baili Xiu could suppress the Japanese machine gunner.

So after Wang Gensheng got up, he chose to run towards the Japanese bunker. After running fifty meters and when he was only one hundred and fifty meters away from the Japanese bunker, he quickly threw the two impact grenades with the safety pins pulled out in his hand at the Japanese bunker.

The two grenades did not disappoint Wang Gensheng's expectations. They flew into the firing hole of the Japanese bunker very accurately, then hit the wall and exploded directly.

However, Wang Gensheng understood when he felt only five weak currents of heat coming from his body.

The two grenades only killed five Japanese soldiers in the bunker, so without caring about anything else, Wang Gensheng immediately ran towards the bunker.

He wanted to rush into the bunker while the surviving Japanese soldiers had not yet recovered from the dizziness caused by the grenade shock wave.

With the 30% improvement in physical fitness, not only did his strength increase by 30%, but his running speed also increased by 30%. Now Wang Gensheng can run his 100-meter sprint speed to 9 seconds, which is enough to win the Olympic Championship.

After kicking open the wooden door on the side of the bunker, Wang Gensheng was stunned by the situation inside, because the bunker had changed. There was a cross wall in the middle that was one person high. The cross wall successfully divided the bunker into four parts, which could greatly reduce the lethality of shrapnel when the grenade exploded.

However, Wang Gensheng didn't care about much at this time. He directly pulled out his throwing knife and started calling out names one by one. No matter whether the Japanese were dead or alive, he shot them in the head with the throwing knife.

After killing all the Japanese soldiers, Wang Gensheng discovered something was wrong, because there were actually fourteen Japanese soldiers in the bunker. Then Wang Gensheng discovered that there were more than fourteen Japanese soldiers.

What’s more important is that one of the Japanese soldiers was holding not a Type 38 rifle, but a Type 97 sniper rifle.
