The corpses of the three top-grade shooters were sent to the Japanese squadron. Seeing the wounds that had killed them in one shot, Company Leader Kameda was so angry that his face turned ashen.
"This is a provocation to the Great Sun Imperial Army! He must kill this Chinese soldier and avenge the Empire's warriors!”
Company Leader Guitian clenched his fists as he looked at the dead special grade shooter.
One had to know that most of the Japanese soldiers had good marksmanship, but it was not easy to reach the level of a special grade shooter.
Their entire squadron only had three experienced special grade shooters. Who knew that they would all be killed? This was a huge loss.
"We must take down the Chinese Army's position today. I want the head of that Chinese Army's special grade archer to pay tribute to the Japanese soldiers who died in battle!”
As the captain of the Gui Zi Company, Guitian, gritted his teeth, the Gui Zi launched round after round of fierce attacks on Zhao Ting's position after lunch. They were completely in a desperate situation.
Although Zhao Ting's marksmanship was good, he still felt a strong pressure when facing these fearless soldiers.
On the battlefield, bullets were flying everywhere, and explosions sounded one after another. The two sides fought like dogs and teeth on the battlefield for dozens of miles.
As for the Luo Zhen camp that Zhao Ting and the others were at, it was known as the flesh mill. Both sides wanted to control this place.
Although it was a small town, it was the transportation hub of several roads. It could lead to the port and also to the downtown area of Shanghai. Its strategic position was very important.
When Zhao Ting and the 51st Division took over the defense, the elite 11th Division was reduced to a few hundred men.
Now, Zhao Ting's troops had only fought here for two days, and the entire division had lost two-thirds of its strength. They were already at the end of their rope.
Under the cover of tanks, planes, and heavy artillery, the Japanese launched round after round of fierce attacks, and the Chinese soldiers who were filled with killing intent fought for every inch of land.
Zhao Ting was a company commander at the frontline. Because of his outstanding marksmanship, every time the Japanese attacked, he would take the lead in killing the Japanese machine gunners and bombardier soldiers. Those with the Japanese flag on their bayonet were also his main targets.
Zhao Ting had killed the important firepower output and commander of these Japanese soldiers, greatly reducing the pressure on his soldiers.
As they had been holding the line of defense steadily like a rock, it was easy for the regiment to invest their remaining strength into other defensive areas.
Although it was only a small impact, the entire defense line was constantly being attacked by the Japanese and was on the verge of collapse, but it was never broken through by the Japanese.
When the battle was at its most intense, the regiment sent guards, handymen, and even cooks to the battlefield.
The Japanese soldiers rushed up to the battlefield, and the brothers used grenades to protect them. However, after the Japanese soldiers were blown up, the Japanese soldiers behind them stepped on the corpses and rushed up.
The most dangerous time was when the Japanese had already charged into the trenches. Zhao Ting, the company commander, did not say anything and directly faced them with his bayonet.
Zhao Ting had obtained the bonus of the close-combat skills of the war system. He looked skinny, but his explosive power was shocking.
By the time platoon leader Liu Gang brought a few of his men to reinforce them, Zhao Ting had already killed all seven of the Japanese who had rushed in on the spot. He had even taken half of his own HP.
"Company Commander, you're injured!"
Seeing Zhao Ting covered in blood, Liu Gang was terrified.
"It's all the blood of the Japanese. I'm fine.”
Although Zhao Ting was also panting heavily from exhaustion, he was indeed unharmed.
The platoon leader, Liu Gang, rushed over in disbelief and touched Zhao Ting's body. Only then did he relax and laugh out loud.
Zhao Ting killed seven Japanese soldiers in close combat. The scene of him being covered in blood and holding a bloody bayonet left a deep impression on the surrounding soldiers. Therefore, the nickname of Madman quickly spread throughout the army.
To Zhao Ting, it was best to avoid fighting with the Japanese. Although he had beginner melee combat skills, who could guarantee that he would be unharmed every time?
Therefore, Zhao Ting would never take the initiative to engage in a hand-to-hand battle. It was not worth it.
Due to the limited ammunition supply of the Chinese army and the fierce attacks of the Japanese, the ammunition consumption rate was very fast.
However, what puzzled the soldiers guarding the position was that it was as if their bullets would never run out. According to past experience, they would have to fight with their bayonet after repelling the Japanese's attacks.
However, to their surprise, they found a lot of ammunition in some corners and in the dirt after each battle.
The battle was very intense. Some people felt strange about the ammunition that appeared, but they didn't have the time to investigate. They thought that it was sent over by the military supplies while they were fighting.
However, these soldiers did not know that this was all exchanged by the company commander, Zhao Ting, with his own war points. Although he had obtained a lot of points from killing the Japanese soldiers, they were quickly used up.
Due to the inexplicable ammunition support, the machine guns in the position were almost always filled with ammunition. The firepower was maintained, and the Japanese naturally could not rush up.
When Zhao Ting and the others were fighting the Japanese at the front line, news about Zhao Ting spread like a spring breeze in all the major cities in the country. It quickly caused a huge reaction.
Battles were not just about winning or losing on the battlefield. Sometimes, the propaganda of fishing vessels was also an extremely important position.
When the news of Zhao Ting killing more than 20 Japanese by himself spread, the Left Wing Army Headquarters immediately sent a report to all the major newspapers.
Therefore, overnight, all the major news agencies noticed the hero who had appeared on the battlefield. At the critical moment of the fierce battle, this was inspiring good news.
"Sharpshooter Zhao Ting, killed 25 enemies by himself!”
"Second Lieutenant Platoon Leader Zhao Ting, the pillar of the country!”
"Iron-blooded soldier, Zhao Ting!"
......
In an instant, Zhao Ting's name quickly spread throughout the entire Yangtze River. Not only in Shanghai, but also in many small cities like Harbor City. His heroic deeds of killing more than 20 Japanese in a day quickly spread.
At this moment when the country was in ruins, such a heroic figure appeared out of nowhere, naturally attracting the attention of many people.
Especially with the secret promotion of the Chinese government, the entire publicity campaign quickly reached a peak, making Zhao Ting, who was originally unknown, known to everyone.
