During the War of Resistance Against Japan: After being scattered at Cangyunling, he brought back a

But that’s the truth!

If you add the cavalry battalion, two artillery regiments, as well as guard companies, reconnaissance companies, assault teams, and other non-combat units!

The strength of the entire New Third Regiment has indeed exceeded 30,000!

According to the troop strength division based on the military-level organizational structure, isn't that equivalent to a corps commander?

This expansion is not just about increasing troop strength; while the increase in troop strength in each unit is one aspect, the most important thing is its combat effectiveness!

And weapons and equipment!

Compared to before the division of forces, the organizational structure of each unit is more complete. Both the command system and the firepower configuration have formed an effective whole, rather than relying on the regimental headquarters for allocation!

"Captain!"

"And that doesn't even include the local armed forces who are willing to cooperate with us!"

"If we really include that!"

"The number of troops we can mobilize may exceed Yoshio Shinotsuka's expectations!"

“He can go toe-to-toe with Yoshio Shinotsuka now!” Yang Liansheng said meaningfully.

Yoshio Shinotsuka is waiting for them, but are the new Third Group and the others not waiting for Yoshio Shinotsuka?

"Captain!"

"Give the order!"

"Commander! Give the order!"

The battalion commanders all spoke up.

You have to understand that they've been waiting for this opportunity for a long time! Ordinary small-scale operations are no longer enough for them!

"We have to wait a little longer!"

Xie Jinyuan waved his hand to interrupt.

"Captain!"

"Captain!"

"Captain!"

Everyone spoke one after another.

"Shut up!"

Xie Jinyuan's face suddenly turned cold, and everyone immediately fell silent!

"okay!"

"You'll be indispensable in this battle!"

"At most three days!"

"Go and get ready!"

"Furthermore, the Third New Regiment has activated its highest level of combat readiness!"

Then Xie Jinyuan spoke up.

"Yes! Captain!"

"Yes! Captain!"

"Yes! Captain!"

The battalion commanders quickly left the command room!

"Commander! What are you worried about?" After everyone left, Zhao Gang paused and couldn't help but ask.

From worrying to not worrying!

"It's just not the right time yet!" Xie Jinyuan said.

Just as Yang Liansheng said, the new Third Regiment can indeed go toe-to-toe with Yoshio Shinotsuka!

However, we cannot reveal it too early!

"It's not the right time yet?" Zhao Gang asked, looking puzzled.

Now the entire northwestern Shanxi is engulfed in war, and even the newly formed Third Regiment, which is only able to hold its ground in a corner, cannot escape it!

Joining the battlefield is only a matter of time!

"Ok!"

Seemingly sensing Zhao Gang's confusion, Xie Jinyuan said in a deep voice, "Old Zhao! Have you considered the consequences for the New Third Regiment if we send troops now, even if we win?"

"What will be the outcome?"

"You mean the Second World War Zone? Mountain City? Or our Eighth Route Army side?" Zhao Gang subconsciously swallowed.

"Tell me your thoughts!"

"If it's the Second World War zone, given Yan Xishan's style of doing things, the most he'll do is try to win them over!"

"As for the mountain city..." Zhao Gang said, seemingly referring to something.

"The mountain city won't allow the existence of the New Third Regiment to continue. The Northeast Army is a prime example! It disintegrated, and its troops were scattered throughout China!"

“But if I told you, Old Zhao, the most serious situation is on the Eighth Route Army's side, would you believe me?” Xie Jinyuan took a deep breath and said.

"The Eighth Route Army side?"

"Correct!"

"We belong to the Eighth Route Army, but we are beyond their control!"

"No one will let this go on!"

"Even if nothing happens now, there will be a reckoning sooner or later!" Xie Jinyuan said solemnly.

"This..." Xie Jinyuan's words left Zhao Gang stunned on the spot!

His sudden words shocked him!

"That's why, Lao Zhao, I said it wasn't the right time yet!"

"If we expose ourselves too early, and Yoshio Shinotsuka launches a major attack, even the New Third Regiment won't gain anything! It will only benefit those people!"

"The only thing to do now is wait!"

"Not only do the new Third Regiment have to wait, but you and I have to wait too!"

"We're waiting for an opportunity that can turn the tide, enhance the reputation of the New Third Regiment, and allow it to appear openly and legitimately in the eyes of the 400 million people of China!"

"Only in this way can we withstand those three mountains!"

"At the same time, this opportunity must be one that Yoshio Shinotsuka wants to withdraw from but cannot!"

Xie Jinyuan seemed to be referring to something.

"Commander! What are you up to all this time?!"

After thinking for a long time, Zhao Gang still couldn't come up with a solution and shook his head helplessly.

"Ha ha!"

"Old Zhao! You'll find out soon enough!"

Xie Jinyuan laughed and joked with a smile.

"You ah you!"

Zhao Gang pointed at Xie Jinyuan, "But don't worry, whatever decision you make, Xie Jinyuan, I, Zhao Gang, will always support you!"

"Thank you so much, Lao Zhao!"

……

Headquarters of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army!

At this moment, the brigade commander frowned deeply, his face ashen as if he had swallowed two greenbottle flies! His roar was almost tangible!

"That son of a bitch, Li Yunlong!"

"It's Li Yunlong again!"

The brigade commander slammed his fist on the command table in front of him, wishing he could drag Li Yunlong over and shoot him dead!

· ·······Request flowers· ·····

"brigadier!"

"I have to say! That kid Li Yunlong is really bold!"

"But he's quite capable! He actually managed to take Ping'an City!" The deputy chief of staff shook his head with a wry smile.

After the Yamazaki Battalion lost contact with Li Yunlong's unit in the battle, the brigade headquarters began to investigate!

Just now, the communications department sent word that they had found traces of Li Yunlong's troops in Ping'an City. Only then did they realize that all of this was the work of his Independent Regiment.

In other words, Li Yunlong's attack mobilized even the brigade headquarters!

"What skills does Li Yunlong have?!"
