Chapter 178: Battle of Tianjin 13

"Charge forward! Don't leave any one alive!"

Zhang Biao has now been promoted to deputy commander-in-chief of the 78th Army Group, but his ruffian and impulsive character has not changed much.

Not long after the general offensive was launched, he could no longer sit still. He felt as if needles were pricking his buttocks, and kept pacing back and forth in the front-line command post, cursing all the time!

Finally, he could no longer hold back his temper and brought his guard company to the front line - of course, this was not the front line in the true sense, because the person rushing in the front was Brigade Commander Xu Renxu of the 1st Armored Division.

This was a Japanese position that had been subjected to eight hours of artillery fire and was then shattered by the 1st Armored Division.

Today, there are no large-scale Japanese troops on this position, but there are still a small group of remnants hiding in a bunker deep underground.

These Japanese soldiers were unable to escape in time because they were trying to avoid the artillery fire. When the tank cluster appeared, they were so scared that they could only continue to hide in the underground bunkers, not daring to show their heads.

It was not until the armored group left that this group of mole-like enemies appeared. However, their luck was really bad, and they ran into the infantry of the 78th Army who were clearing the battlefield.

Even more unfortunate was that they encountered an unreliable deputy commander-in-chief, Zhang Biao.

In fact, what Zhang Biao is currently facing is just such a small-scale battle scene. He will not be present at the scene of larger-scale battles.

It's not that he is timid, but he is well aware that as a senior general, he has a special status and cannot take risks casually.

If something unexpected happens to him, the consequences will be disastrous, so he must act with caution and avoid unnecessary risks.

He himself thought it was nothing. After all, who can survive in this world? Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are determined by God! Zhang Biao believed that when a person dies, the bird will fly to the sky, and he will never die!

However, Zhang Biao was well aware that if his deputy commander was injured or killed in battle, it would deal a huge blow to the morale of the entire army group.

Upon hearing the order from the deputy commander, the infantrymen who were clearing the battlefield suddenly became excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and they all tried their best just to show off their skills in front of the deputy commander.

They used all the martial arts they had learned and all kinds of advanced weapons and equipment to attack the Japanese soldiers hiding in the underground fortifications.

However, seeing the battlefield being bombarded with poison gas bombs, anti-personnel mines, flamethrowers and a series of high-tech weapons, Zhang Biao, who was originally very excited, could only smack his lips helplessly after watching for a while.

"Damn it! Has fighting become so easy now? All those tough battles I fought before seem like a joke now!"

But he couldn't show any bad emotions or expressions, after all, those soldiers were still fighting against the Japanese army.

No! It's definitely not as simple as fighting the Japanese army! Instead, we have to torture these little devils! Those soldiers who slaughtered the little devils were very eager to get recognition and praise from their superiors!

"Good job, young man! These Japanese devils are just a bunch of bastards! Our lives are extremely precious! We won't fight to the death with those brain-dead idiots!"

"As long as we have artillery shells, bombs, flamethrowers and other weapons, we will never let our men fill the gap with their lives!"

Originally, because these soldiers used a large number of advanced military equipment, the battle became extremely easy, and even turned into a one-sided massacre, and they were completely unable to show their bravery.

These soldiers were originally worried that they would be blamed by the deputy commander, who would think that they were just wasting ammunition and lacked even the most basic courage.

However, when they heard such praise from the deputy commander, everyone's face was filled with bright smiles.

"Warriors of the Empire! Now is the final moment! His Majesty is watching us in the Locust Palace! Amaterasu is also watching us, his people!" Yoshida Takeo stood on his chariot, waving his command sword and shouting to his soldiers.

His eyes were firm and fanatical, filled with desire for victory and loyalty to the empire, and his voice echoed throughout the battlefield, inspiring every soldier.

"The empire's samurai will never retreat on the battlefield! We cannot retreat for the glory of the samurai! We can't be as cowardly as those infantrymen!" Yoshida Takeo continued to shout.

He knew that this battle was vital to the empire, and if they failed then the empire's future would become bleak.

Therefore, he must lead his warriors forward and fight for the glory of the empire.

"We are a chariot unit that was established with money saved by the subjects of the empire, and with money raised by His Majesty who only ate two meals a day!" Yoshida Takeo said excitedly.

He knew very well that these chariots were hard-earned and they represented the power and glory of the empire. He wanted to make the best use of these chariots and win victory for the empire.

"For the honor of the empire! For the glory of the samurai! I command you to charge at the enemy!" Yoshida Takeo raised his command sword and issued the final order.

With his order, the entire tank division rushed towards the enemy opposite - the 1st Armored Division - like a torrent of steel.

"Your Majesty Tianhuang, embark! Long may the military fortune of the Empire of Japan live on! Embark!" Yoshida Takeo shouted slogans and rushed to the battlefield with his soldiers.

At this moment, they had only one belief in their hearts: for the glory of the empire, at all costs!

Looking at the Japanese troops that had begun to disperse in front of him, Xu Ren showed a smile on his face.

"Brothers, charge!" He waved his right hand and gave the order to charge.

At this moment, among the fleeing Japanese army, the figures of several steel behemoths vaguely appeared. Xu Ren took a closer look and his face suddenly became very ugly.

Those were several Japanese tanks, and judging from their appearance, they should be Type 1 and Type 2 medium tanks of the Japanese Army.

Although this type of tank is not the most advanced in the world, it is still a huge threat to the Chinese army.

Xu Ren secretly groaned in his heart, not knowing whether to be happy or cry. He couldn't help but think of the last time he fought with the Japanese tank troops.

At that time, the 1st Armored Division where he was, or to be more precise, his armored brigade, had extremely bad luck. As soon as they went out, they encountered the strongest 3rd Tank Division of the Japanese Army.

The battle was extremely fierce and his armored brigade suffered heavy losses. If there had not been a Type 43 heavy tank regiment temporarily incorporated into their brigade, the result would probably have been even worse.

And now, it's them again! Xu Ren's heart was filled with helplessness and anger. He thought that he could easily harvest the lives of these beasts by chasing the Japanese infantry this time, but he didn't expect to encounter the Japanese tank troops again.

It seems that a fierce battle today is inevitable.
