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

"Old Xie! What exactly happened?"

Li Yunlong took a deep breath and said.

At this critical juncture, they proactively admitted that the Osaka Division had been completely annihilated!

Has Yoshio Shinotsuka gone mad?

"Old Li! Yoshio Shinotsuka is shrewd!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Kong Jie couldn't help but speak up.

Just as Xie Jinyuan was frowning and deep in thought!

"Captain!"

"The big thing is bad!"

"The Japanese have deployed their tank and armored forces!"

Just then, Sun Chuanfu's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door. He then quickly pushed the door open, panting heavily.

"Battalion Commander Sun!"

"Armored forces?"

"Are you kidding me?"

Li Yunlong couldn't help but speak up.

However, the First Army is an infantry-based combat force. If Yoshio Shinotsuka had armored units under his command, Taiyuan City would not be in its current state!

"Sure!"

.. .. ...

"But this armored unit does not belong to the First Army!"

Sun Chuanfu shook his head.

After the independent command center was set up, an intelligence department was also established at the behest of the regimental commander!

Otherwise, we would still be in the dark!

"Indeed, they don't belong to the First Army!"

"If I'm not mistaken!"

"This is the armored force of the Second Army!"

After a moment of contemplation, Xie Jinyuan quickly spoke.

In the entire Shanxi-Northwest region, only the Second Army had fully-fledged armored units! But this large-scale mopping-up operation clearly didn't provide support to Yoshio Shinotsuka! After all, he was the Second Army's ace!

"The Second Army?"

"Ok!"

"Shinotsuka Yoshio isn't stupid either. The annihilation of the Osaka Division is a fact! His open admission of it is just to put pressure on the Japanese Marine Corps!"

Xie Jinyuan seemed to be referring to something.

"Old Xie! You mean the tank units of the Second Army were ordered to operate by the Marine Corps?" Ding Wei was the first to react.

"Correct!"

"After all, the more this matter escalates, the more Yoshio Shinotsuka will bet on the completion of the assembly of all four divisions!"

"The sooner we break through Taiyuan, the better!" Xie Jinyuan said slowly.

Yoshio Shinotsuka is different from other Japanese soldiers; he is calm and has a good overall perspective!

After Xie Jinyuan finished speaking, everyone instinctively fell silent!

Tank and armored forces!

As the most powerful force in land warfare!

Its weakness lies in positional warfare!

Moreover, even if the firepower is sufficient, it may not be able to affect him, after all, this thing is highly mobile!

There's also enough armor!

Yoshio Shinotsuka clearly came for this purpose!

Although the New Third Regiment had tanks, only one appeared when they breached the gates of Taiyuan!

It's practically useless!

"Monk!"

Just as everyone was silent, Xie Jinyuan's voice suddenly rang out.

"exist!"

"Notify Wu Wanli!"

"First Armored Battalion of the Regiment, assemble immediately!"

"He, Yoshio Shinotsuka, wants to break through my defenses!"

"Then I'll wipe out their entire armored unit first!"

Xie Jinyuan said in a deep voice, his face expressionless.

"Armored battalion?"

"Old Xie! Don't tell me your New Third Regiment really has an armored unit? Or even a whole battalion?"

Li Yunlong's voice suddenly rang out.

The voice was filled with shock!

Tanks appeared when they breached the gate tower of Taiyuan!

Now they're telling him it's a battalion?

"Armored battalion?"

"Armored battalion?"

"Armored battalion?"

The voices of the brigade commander, Ding Wei, and Kong Jie also rang out at the same time.

The crowd was filled not only with shock, but also with a hint of fear!

An armored regiment, also known as a tank regiment, has about one hundred tanks. That is to say, Xie Jinyuan's armored battalion.

There must be at least thirty tanks?

After Xie Jinyuan nodded slightly, everyone fell silent instinctively.

"Thank you!"

"How much more the hell are you hiding?!" After a long while, Li Yunlong shook his head with a bitter expression.

A regimental-level unit managed to create the strength of an entire army!

That’s not all!

Light and heavy artillery regiments!

Various light and heavy weapons, directly under the regiment's command!

And now they've even created a tank battalion?

And he was no match for the tank battalion!

The Japanese devils have hardly ever seen more than a few tiny tanks!

After all, the Japanese army didn't have many truly mechanized units; the Kwantung Army was one of them!

Yoshio Shinotsuka's first team is still far from being there!

"Ha ha!"

"Old Li! You're overthinking it!"

"This is pretty much the limit for the new Third Regiment!" Xie Jinyuan said with a laugh.

We can form an armored battalion!

Thanks to the Osaka Division, the entire Osaka Division was annihilated!

A golden treasure chest was opened!

This golden "223" treasure chest came in very handy!

"Thank you, Jinyuan!"

"This battle is of paramount importance to the Eighth Route Army, to northwestern Shanxi, and to the entire nation of China!"

"Are you confident in taking over the entire 386th Brigade?" At this moment, the brigade commander spoke calmly, as if he had made a decision.
