One man's resistance against Japan, I mobilized a million people to aid Shanghai.

These 50 men were also part of a Japanese assault squad, and the number of men in the squad was dwindling.

One by one they fell, but the Japanese soldiers observing from behind only discovered a few firing positions.

With just these few firing points, they almost wiped out their entire assault team. The Japanese soldiers behind them were terrified and dared not make any rash moves.

He desperately ordered the artillery to bombard the First Battalion relentlessly, attempting to wipe them all out with the bombs.

While the Japanese dared not make any rash moves, the remaining soldiers of the First Battalion had a little time to recover.

Xie Jinyuan also rested for a while and observed the surrounding scene.

Most of the Japanese assault squads have been wiped out, with only a few remaining hiding in the craters, too afraid to advance. The Japanese troops behind them also dare not move forward easily.

They now have a chance to catch their breath, if they can use this time to quickly gather the guns and ammunition around them.

Even if only one person remains after being killed, they can still have artillery shells to take the Japanese soldiers down with them.

The most unbearable thing in this battle was being alive but having no bombs and being unable to continue killing Japanese soldiers.

Killing one Japanese soldier is not a loss, killing one more Japanese soldier is a gain.

Looking at the figure in front of him, where no Japanese soldiers appeared for the time being...

Zhu Yong silently recited in his heart:

"System, open the panel."

Total kills: 37

Upon seeing this data, Zhu Yong nodded in satisfaction.

He didn't expect that in such a short time, he had already killed 37 Japanese soldiers.

These clones of his own used his unerring accuracy to kill almost every Japanese soldier with every bullet, achieving perfect accuracy.

So, if we calculate it this way, he now has a total of 16 clones, and he has already lost a few. On average, each clone killed about three Japanese soldiers.

If they continue like this, Zhu Yong and his clones should be able to repel any attacks launched by the opposing assault team or any smaller squads sent out later.

As Zhu Yong was pondering this matter, Xie Jinyuan secretly approached him from behind.

He sat down next to Zhu Yong and asked him what Zhu Yong's background was.

Zhu Yong was surprised that Xie Jinyuan would ask him this question at this time. He could only vaguely say that he had studied at a military academy in Germany.

Upon hearing that his country was in trouble, he immediately rushed back, wanting to serve his country and contribute his own strength.

Seeing Zhu Yong's ambiguous expression, Xie Jinyuan did not pursue the matter further, but instead praised Zhu Yong and his clone's marksmanship.

"You and the group you brought back, you guys are really amazing. I knew about sharpshooters before, but I've never seen so many people who are all sharpshooters."

"Your marksmanship is impeccable, the best I've ever seen. Your help eased our critical situation just now. Thank you."

"If you hadn't suddenly appeared, we probably wouldn't be many of us left now."

Considering his current situation, Zhu Yong looked at Xie Jinyuan and said he wanted a Mauser 98k. That way, they could form a sniper unit.

If such a unit existed, whether it was engaged in combat or launched sniper attacks during battle, it would be a huge blow to the enemy.

Moreover, the presence of such a sniper unit during the battle can greatly slow down the enemy's advance.

After all, as they marched, people kept dying, but no one could find the spot to fire the bullets. As more and more people fell, their morale began to waver.

Hearing this, Xie Jinyuan was overjoyed. He looked at Zhu Yong and said, "I had never thought of these things before. I never expected you to be so farsighted."

"This situation is indeed a very significant breakthrough for our battle."

"We've never had so many sharpshooters before; it would have been impossible to even organize a unit like this."

"But now that you're all here, how come I didn't think of that? You're just waiting."

Xie Jinyuan then immediately mobilized the remaining 98k rifles from various units and handed them to Zhu Yong and his clone.

The Type 24 rifle and the Mauser 98k rifle share the same lineage, both originating from the German company Mauser.

The Type 24 rifle was a standard-issue rifle produced by the arsenal based on the German Mauser rifle, while the Type 98k was the standard-issue rifle of Germany.

The range of the Type 24 rifle is listed as 2000 meters, but this is only in theory. For sniper rifles, the range for a single person target is usually between 400 and 600 meters.

Under ideal conditions, its accuracy can be considered acceptable at distances of 100 to 300 meters.

The Mauser 98k rifle also has a range of up to 2000 meters, with an actual effective range of easily reaching 800 meters or even further. Moreover, the 98k is renowned worldwide for its outstanding, stable, and high accuracy.

Moreover, due to the weak materials and rough manufacturing process, the rifling of the Type 24 rifle wears out extremely quickly during continuous firing.

After firing approximately 50 rounds in rapid succession, the rifling edges will begin to show obvious signs of wear.

Rifling wear leads to a sharp decrease in its accuracy, resulting in significant consumption, which is the most direct manifestation of this.

However, the Mauser 98k doesn't have such a serious problem because it uses top-grade materials, namely high-quality alloy steel.

It is also because of this material that the 98k rifle has an amazing rifling life. After firing more than 200 rounds, or even more, its rifling can still remain clear and sharp.

This means that the accuracy of the rifle decreases very slowly throughout its entire service life.

A German soldier could rely on his rifle to maintain stable ballistic performance even after many battles.

This is also the material basis for snipers to rely on the 98k to achieve victories at long range.

......

the other side.

The Japanese battalion commander stationed on Baoshan Road was named Doi Madoka.

After witnessing a squad wiped out, he immediately realized that the enemy must have a sniper present.

He then immediately requested assistance from headquarters, explaining that the presence of enemy snipers on the battlefield was greatly hindering their current offensive.

Therefore, we requested that headquarters send a sniper to provide support.

Upon hearing his request, the headquarters considered the situation on the battlefield and immediately granted his request for assistance, ordering the mobilization of 20 snipers to rush to Baoshan Road to provide support.
