"Thousands of lives are compared to the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers!"

"Nothing!"

"Now I actually have hope!"

"Can Xie Jinyuan withstand this?" Old Yan said wearily.

If the new Third Regiment can really hold out, then there might still be a chance!

Moreover, by then, it will surely alarm the mountain city!

Even if we lose, it's not my fault alone!

Now, if the Second World War Zone rashly gets involved, he cannot afford to take on the responsibility!

It's all just wishful thinking!

After all, it's an entire tank regiment!

Even the Fifth Army of Chongqing was not confident of winning. You must know that Du Yuming's Fifth Army is the real ace force of the entire China, a fully mechanized force!

This gap cannot be bridged by military force alone!

What's the situation in Taiyuan?

Then Yan Laoxi took a deep breath and looked at his deputy.

"Commander!"

"The tank regiment of the Second Army has set off and is estimated to have arrived near Taiyuan City about twenty minutes ago!"

"But the situation on the battlefield has not yet been reported back!"

"It's a deep voice," the deputy said.

"Ok!"

"Closely!"

"Report any news immediately!"

Yan Laoxi spoke up.

"Yes, Commander!"

"report!"

"Commander Yan!"

"Good news!"

"Breaking news!"

Just as the deputy was about to leave, the communications officer's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door!

A messenger followed closely behind and jogged to Yan Laoxi's side, his face still a little pale from the strenuous exercise!

Even so, it was hard to hide the excitement and shock on his face!

"Good news?"

"What good news?"

Yan Laoxi asked subconsciously, puzzled.

"Commander Yan!"

"It's Taiyuan!"

"The Japanese tank regiment has suffered heavy losses!"

"More than half of the casualties are dead or injured!"

"The rest escaped Xiaoqing River!"

"But they're still being chased!"

"Commander Yan! We won!"

"The New Third Regiment really won!"

The correspondent recounted the events with red eyes.

"What did you say?"

"Win?"

"More than half of the Japanese tank regiment were killed or wounded?" Old Yan asked incredulously.

A tank regiment suffered more than half its casualties!

That is, nearly fifty tanks?

After the correspondent nodded again, he asked, "What exactly happened?"

"Say it!"

Yan Laoxi quickly spoke up to indicate.

With the communications officer's swift explanation, the entire Battle of Xiaoqinghe was presented in its entirety in the command room!

"You mean the New Third Regiment not only has armored units?"

"Still a battalion?"

Yan Laoxi's face had turned quite pale.

Moreover, according to the communications officer, this tank battalion of the New Third Regiment was far from the tank battalion he had imagined!

After all, they were able to achieve such results against opponents several times their size!

While equipment superiority was the main factor, their command and combat skills, as well as individual combat capabilities, were far superior to those of the Japanese!

"Commander!"

"Then isn't that the Third Regiment that was deployed when they broke through the gate tower of Taiyuan City..." the deputy said, taking a deep breath.

Has the New Third Regiment been hiding its true strengths?

Or perhaps the New Third Regiment already had a fully-fledged armored force at that time?

"What about Yoshio Shinotsuka?"

"What is Yoshio Shinotsuka's reaction now?" Old Yan waved his hand to interrupt his deputy.

"Commander Yan!"

"No news has come out yet!" the communications officer said in a deep voice.

"Commander!"

"It happened so suddenly! The Japanese are probably still in a daze!"

"However, judging by the timeline, Yoshio Shinotsuka's four divisions will probably be fully assembled by now!"

The deputy looked embarrassed.

"Ok!"

"Commander! Do you really think the New Third Regiment can hold out for seven days?"

The deputy took a deep breath and said.

It looks like there are only two and a half days left!

Neither the Eighth Route Army, nor the Jin-Sui Army, nor even the whole of China had much faith in the New Third Regiment's move!

They believe it can only last a day at most!

But now it seems!

Everyone was wrong!

Including just now!

The new Third Regiment has held out for four and a half days!

And now only one final hurdle remains!

So, does that mean as long as the New Third Regiment can hold off Yoshio Shinotsuka's four divisions?

"Hard to say!"

"But we need to start preparing!"

After a moment of contemplation, Yan Laoxi took a deep breath and said.

"Commander! What do you mean?"

"Notify me!"

"Order the entire Jin-Sui Army to stand by!"

"Activate Level 1 combat readiness!"
