The battle was over.
After the tank was destroyed, the German soldiers—who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere—quickly retreated.
Once the fighting ended, the first priority was to treat the wounded and tally the results.
Three dead, four wounded—Li Changgen himself among the injured.
And the Germans?
One tank destroyed, five crew members killed, plus five German infantry corpses left behind.
"Three to ten! A resounding initial victory!"
Soon, the battle report from the 13th Reconnaissance Team spread through the task force. It might have seemed like an insignificant skirmish, but for the task force, it was hugely significant. After all, it was their first victory—and their opponent was the Germans.
Even Sun Delin, the head of the security team, was beaming with joy as he delivered the report.
