You are ordered to support the War of Resistance against Japan; China enters Level 1 combat readines

Beiping, southwest.

Hidden in a mountain valley somewhere.

Shen Wang parked the car here.

Inside the car, Shen Wang let out a long breath and leaned back in the driver's seat as if he were completely exhausted.

The adrenaline receded, leaving only utter exhaustion.

He was just an ordinary office worker who spent his days with computer files, and his greatest exercise was commuting to and from get off work.

Although only a little over an hour has passed since the start, the amount of time and effort required in that hour has been astonishing.

The mental and physical exhaustion from that hour-long desperate run and intense firefight far exceeded the total expenditure of his previous twenty years.

"The three of you, I need to rest for a bit and recharge," Shen Wang said to Ding Zhijian and the other two in the back seat after stretching his body.

"Mr. Shen, please rest! We'll keep watch for you!" Ding Zhijian responded immediately.

Meng Guanglin and Sha Zhenjiang nodded repeatedly, feeling both admiration and heartache for Shen Wang as they looked at his exhausted appearance.

This mysterious benefactor had gone to great lengths to save them, and they now wished they could share everything with Shen Wang.

Shen Wang nodded, said no more, and closed his eyes.

While seemingly resting with his eyes closed, his consciousness had already sunk into the system space.

During the previous operation, the system notifications in his mind were almost non-stop, like a screen being refreshed.

At this moment, Shen Wang brought up the system panel.

Looking at that long list of kills and military achievements, even though I was exhausted, I couldn't help but feel my heart racing!

[Ding! Military merits for this operation have been calculated—]

[Host direct kill data:]

★Ordinary Japanese soldiers: 88 heads, military merit points +880;

★Japanese Sergeant Major: 6 heads, Military Merit Points +120;

★Japanese Second Lieutenant: 3 heads, Military Merit Points +150;

★Japanese Lieutenant: 1 heads, Military Merit Points +100;

★Japanese Captain: 1 heads, Military Merit Points +200;

★Japanese Major: 1 heads, Military Merit Points +500;

★Japanese Lieutenant Colonel: 1 heads, Military Merit Points +1000;

★Japanese Colonel: 1 heads, Military Merit Points +2000;

Subtotal: The host directly killed 102 Japanese soldiers, military merit points +4950.

"hiss--!"

Shen Wang gasped.

Holy crap!!!

4950 military merits!

This is a huge windfall!

He was so happy when he saw that they had killed a Japanese colonel at the end that he almost jumped for joy.

That's a Japanese colonel!

On the battlefield, he would be at least a regimental commander, a true high-ranking officer!

Its gold content is beyond doubt!

However, when his gaze swept to the next column, his brows furrowed slightly.

Indirect kill data (killed by friendly forces using equipment provided by the host, with a reward of one-tenth):

★Ordinary Japanese soldiers: 116 heads, military merit points +116;

★Japanese officer: 3 heads, military merit +20;

★Japanese Major: 1 heads, Military Merit Points +50;

Subtotal: Host indirectly killed 120 Japanese soldiers, Military Merit Points +186

"More than a hundred Japanese soldiers, but the indirect kills only yielded less than two hundred military merit points..."

Shen Wang clicked his tongue; compared to this, it did indeed seem pitifully small.

A tenfold difference is too large.

But then I thought about it again, and realized that this was just the result of Ding Zhijian and his two companions hastily operating a machine gun.

What if there were thirty people, three hundred people, three thousand people... or even more?

If you calculate it that way, the military merit points are not small at all!

In the end, Shen Wang earned a total of 5136 military merits.

In addition, there's the Silver 10-pull, which guarantees a pity pull.

This operation was incredibly profitable!

Of course, the majority of the military credit came from that Japanese colonel.

To be honest, Japanese colonels are very difficult to kill!

Shen Wang remembered seeing a statistic when he was researching: during the War of Resistance Against Japan, fewer than 100 colonels were killed on the entire Chinese battlefield!

The difficulty of it is unimaginable!

He wondered if he would ever have the chance to kill a colonel with his own hands again.

Moreover, if he hadn't killed the enemy himself, his military merit would only be one-tenth, which isn't much.

This time, I was able to gain more than 5000 military merits, and luck definitely accounted for the majority of it.

Shen Wang calmed himself down; the main event was about to begin.

lottery!!

With over 5000 military merit points, you can participate in 500 squad-level (Bronze) lottery draws, or 50 company-level (Silver) lottery draws, or 5 regimental-level (Gold) lottery draws.

Shen Wang thought for a moment. There were too many chances to draw the bronze prize, and too few chances to draw the gold prize. If he was unlucky, his five thousand military merits might go down the drain.

"The Silver lottery is still the most cost-effective! With over fifty draws, you have enough chances to guarantee a return, and the prize pool quality is higher than that of the Bronze lottery."

With that in mind, Shen Wang no longer hesitated and focused his attention on the silver lottery option.

"System, let's try a single silver pull first, just to test the waters!"

[Ding! Host has consumed 100 military merits to activate a silver-level lottery draw]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the weapon: Type 44 American-equipped infantry platoon (full set of weapons)]

The prizes include: 30 M1 Garand rifles, 9 M1 carbines, 3 Browning automatic rifles, 2 M1919 heavy machine guns, 2 60mm mortars, 1 M2 flamethrower, and one set of ammunition.

"Whoa!"

Shen Wang laughed.

As expected of a silver-level lottery, it starts with pure American mechanical equipment.

"continue!"

[Ding! Host has consumed 100 military merits to activate a silver-level lottery draw]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the weapon: Type 41 German-equipped artillery platoon (full set of weapons)]

The prize includes: four 81mm mortars, two 37mm anti-tank guns, two accompanying towing vehicles, and one load of ammunition.

"Artillery platoon?"

Shen Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Keep in mind that one silver-level lottery is equivalent to ten squad-level lottery draws, but a platoon only has 3 or 4 squads.

Unless you draw a top-tier item, drawing silver-level items is not as worthwhile as drawing bronze-level items.

The problem is that the types of soldiers you can get from the bronze-level lottery are too limited, mostly infantry squads, and the weapons are all firearms.

However, if you participate in the Silver-level lottery, then there will be more unit types corresponding to the Platoon level.

For example, artillery platoons, tank companies, and anti-aircraft companies can draw more weapons.

To put it simply, it's very difficult to draw heavy firepower such as mortars, anti-aircraft guns, and tanks in the bronze-level lottery.

Over the past few days, Shen Wang has studied the system extensively and has a clear understanding of its intricacies.

"continue!"

[Ding! Host has consumed 100 military merits to activate a silver-level lottery draw]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained supplies: Company-level reconnaissance communication package]

[Prizes include: 20 SCR-536 walkie-talkies, 4 artillery telescopes, 10 binoculars, 1 high-power radio, and several batteries]

"What the hell?"

"A walkie-talkie?"

Shen Wang was completely stunned.

The SCR-536 walkie-talkie, a legendary communication device from World War II.

The importance of communication during war goes without saying.

What's more, this is an instant messaging device!

"Awesome!"

Shen Wang became more and more addicted to smoking.

"Again, again..."
