You were tasked with guarding the Sihang Warehouse, and you brought out a Tiger tank?

"Bombardment, take cover."

Lin Feng roared, instinctively covered his head, and then subconsciously squatted down at the bottom of the muddy trench.

As a time traveler who has experienced many battlefields, the act of taking cover upon hearing the sound of artillery fire has become ingrained in his subconscious.

"boom!!!"

The earth suddenly jumped.

It wasn't a vibration, but a throbbing sensation, like being hit hard by a giant hammer.

Those were shells from a 203mm naval gun.

Judging from the noise, it's not just the four 203mm guns from Izumo; the Japanese must have also brought over some other cruisers.

Immediately following was a barrage of 75mm and 105mm grenades.

Those were the Japanese army's artillery units.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"That idiot Tsuda led the 149th Regiment to a complete annihilation in a rural place like Qibao Town. It's a disgrace to the Empire."

As Takamori adjusted his white gloves, he said disdainfully:

"I heard they were wiped out by a ragtag Chinese army? That's utterly ridiculous. I can't understand how they could have lost. That piece of trash Tsuda deserves to die."

Takamori Takashi was unaware that the opposing garrison had been replaced:

"Today, let our 68th Regiment teach the 88th Division what the true elite of the Imperial Army is."

"Colonel, you are wise." Major Tanaka quickly flattered him. "The tank squadron is ready. This time, the division commander has specially allocated us a full eight Type 8 medium tanks and sixteen Type 16 light tanks (bean tanks). This is quite a generous allocation."

"Yoshi."

Takamori Takashi nodded in satisfaction, a confident expression on his face.

In his view, the Great Xia army was extremely lacking in anti-tank weapons and had not received professional anti-tank training.

As soon as the Imperial Army's tank units charge, the exhausted 88th Division soldiers will fall into complete chaos, like a flock of frightened sheep.

At that time, the Imperial Army infantry following behind will be able to easily drive the enemy out of the defensive line, or even annihilate them, just like harvesting rice in an autumn field.

He glanced at his watch:

"Pass down the order."

Takamori Takashi abruptly drew his command sword, the tip pointing directly at the North Station building, his voice rising eight octaves:

"Order the tank squadron to launch an assault, tear open a breach, and the 1st Infantry Battalion to follow up and capture the North Station."
