Once Zhu Yong and his clones had quickly reached the nearby high ground, the sniping battle began.

All the snipers were in position and had their sights set on the enemy camp, while the Japanese snipers were hidden in a pile of rubble.

They searched for various concealed positions and fired short bursts at the soldiers of the Third Battalion.

They were incredibly accurate, with skills comparable to Zhu Yong's team; they almost always managed to headshot their targets with a single shot.

Among the Japanese soldiers was a sniper king named Kato Yamato, who was hiding behind the ruins at that moment.

He had already shot and killed 13 soldiers from the Third Battalion. After each headshot, he would count the number of people he had killed. "Thirteen, hunting these Chinese is really boring. It's an easy task."

The other sniper next to him did the same, shooting at the Nationalist soldiers while mocking and scorning them.

"What are they thinking? They clearly know we exist."

"These Chinese are still charging forward like madmen. Aren't they just making us live targets? I feel it would be an insult not to shoot them when they're being delivered to us."

"How about we have a contest to see who can kill more?"

Just as he was about to launch into a tirade of mockery, before he could finish speaking, a bullet pierced through his scope.

Then it shattered the scope, instantly piercing his head and drawing out some fine blood.

Kato Yamato was shocked; he hadn't expected the attack to be so sharp.

The instant he saw the bullet fly out, he quickly dodged to the side. If he hadn't reacted in time, even a second later, another bullet would have pierced his forehead.

Because he saw that the bullet had already landed in the spot where he had just been when he dodged.

However, the others around him were not so lucky. After he dodged, he discovered that the other five snipers who had gathered around him had all been killed.

The gunshots even rang out around the same time as the gunshots he took cover, meaning that all of them exposed their positions at the same time.

Meanwhile, there were at least six snipers on the other side, with their guns pointed at them.

Otherwise, so many of them wouldn't have been hit at the same time.

Looking at the five snipers around him, Kato Yamato glanced at them; all of them had hit him squarely between the eyebrows.

He swallowed hard, his palms sweating profusely.

He hadn't expected the enemy sniper to be so skilled; what level of skill was required to achieve that?

The snipers on the opposing side were at least very steady-handed, and their position detection was very accurate. Facing such an enemy, Kato Yamato instantly felt tense.

At the moment these five Japanese snipers were killed, the Japanese also heard the gunshots and located the positions of Zhu Yong and his clones.

They quickly opened fire in retaliation, but to their horror, they learned the snipers' locations.

The moment they fired, the snipers didn't make any dodging movements; it was as if they were deliberately trying to lure them into firing.

As for why they had this guess, it was because of the moment when the three Japanese snipers next to them fired and killed the three snipers on the other side.

They were just celebrating their kill of the Nationalist sniper when, in the next second, they were all shot in the head.

In other words, their position was exposed the moment they killed the Nationalist soldiers.

The fact that those Nationalist soldiers were just bait sent chills down their spines.

Zhu Yong sneered at the sight. He had hundreds or even thousands of snipers. Even if it was a one-for-one exchange, he wouldn't lose out.

However, snipers are a treasure to the Japanese. With so many snipers being brought to the position, their sniper capabilities will become a weakness later on.

For Zhu Yong, it was just a clone. He fought them one-for-one, and he didn't believe that the Japanese could mobilize the same number of snipers as his clone.

He wanted to see how many Japanese snipers they had who could trade one for one with him. If they were so capable, they should bring them all over, and he would wipe them out in one fell swoop.

Kato Yamato was utterly shocked by what he saw. He couldn't understand it at all. "Why? Why are the snipers on the other side so crazy?"

"Don't they want to live? It's just a battle. If they keep trading one for one, won't they still lose their sniper in the end?"

"Are their snipers really that worthless? And isn't the first requirement for training these snipers to conceal themselves?"

"But why don't these snipers hide? They're willing to risk their lives like this, what's driving them? What motivates them to do this?"

Kato Yamato couldn't understand it at all; he felt it was the most bizarre sight he had ever seen in his life.

He couldn't understand it at all. Gunshots were still ringing out all around him. Only 10 minutes had passed. Kato Yamato glanced at the snipers around him.

They discovered that 10 of them had already been killed by these people. They sent 20 snipers, and now only 10 remain.

These were the elite of their empire; even at headquarters, they were few and far between. Yet, in just 10 minutes, half of them had been lost.

Kato Yamato immediately ordered the snipers to stop sniping at each other, "Stop! Stop attacking the enemy! We must change our strategy now."

"Those snipers, there are too many snipers on the other side, I've seen them, they're not afraid of trading one for one."

"If we continue this attack, we'll only suffer casualties. I just saw at least 30 snipers on the other side."

"So, if we continue fighting like this, we will only face total annihilation, which is not the outcome we want."

After observing the surrounding situation, Kato Yamato decided to fire a shot and then move on to another location.

Because of this tactic, Zhu Yong and his clones began to suffer heavy casualties; often, it took three clones to take down a single Japanese sniper.

Under these circumstances, Zhu Yong's clones were rapidly depleted, and casualties increased.

Kato Yamato was very pleased with himself. "Now let's see what you can do. You'll definitely feel sorry for your sniper then."

"After all, training snipers is so rare, you can't possibly remain indifferent. When the time comes, you'll definitely be scared out of your wits."

"Then we started to get scared. If the Nationalist army retreated, we would be able to complete our mission smoothly."

But what happened next by the Nationalist army made his scalp tingle.
