Hundreds of millions of cloud explosive bombs were fired at the beginning, and horses were riding on

Although the Type 97 tank is a little devil's tank.

The caliber of the gun is not very large, and the thickness of the armor is not very thick either.

But it can be regarded as a tank that can be used in this place and can exert its combat effectiveness.

After all, many troops now don't even have armored vehicles.

Not to mention a tank.

Although Zhang Yunqing doesn't want to use the Type 34 tanks, because the Tiger tanks, Panther tanks, T4 tanks, and M Sherman tanks of the First Independent Division are stronger than the Type tanks of the little devils.

If so, I don't know how to match it.

"Type 97 tank..."

"It's better to use a good knife with a steel blade and see if we can form a light armored force..."

"It can be incorporated into the camp of Greyhound armored vehicles or T26 tanks..."

"Or you can send a few vehicles to the brigade commander to help them form an armored force..."

Zhang Yunqing has always had this idea.

You can’t just develop on your own.

Other troops also help if they can.

Of course, the premise is that your own independent division must be the first to develop.

As for the M4A3E8 medium tank rewarded by the system, it is a version of the M4 Sherman.

The previous M4 Sherman tanks of the First Independent Division were preliminary versions and did not have sufficient firepower.

But now the M4A3E8 version of the medium tank has been greatly improved in terms of firepower and armor defense.

The main gun is a 76.2mm caliber cannon.

Armor-piercing projectiles can penetrate 500mm caliber armor within a range of 139 meters....

Such a penetration is even stronger than that of Mustache's Panther tank.

More importantly, its tracks are more suitable for the terrain of Jin Province.

"The First Independent Division has not yet established an armored brigade. Now it seems that this matter will also be put on the agenda."

"After all, the people of the Fifth Division are about to be killed..."

Zhang Yunqing still stayed in Hanzhuang Town at this moment.

Directed the soldiers to carry out clearing activities against the remaining Japanese.

.......

Taiyuan City.

First Army Headquarters.

Staff officer Major Oda came in in a hurry again.

"Your Excellency General...a message has been sent from General Chaoxiang Palace!"

Yoshio Shinozuka has always been concerned about the affairs of the Fifth Division.

And the 9th Division and the 36th Division have been sent to Xiyang County to support Prince Asaka Palace Masahiko.

However, it has just been assembled now.

"Is there finally news from His Highness the Prince?"

"What did he say? Is the situation safe now?"

Yoshio Shinozuka asked anxiously.

If Asaka Gong Masahiko really died in the hands of Xiyang County, the Independent Division.

Then the commander-in-chief of his First Army may be about to reach his end...

There are two consecutive princes of Chaoxiang Palace, one is the younger brother of His Majesty Tianchu, and the other is his uncle.

Two people who were relatively close to him, two people who had done great service to the empire, were dead.

It would be a good thing if Yoshio Shinozuka is not executed.

"General...Your Excellency General..."

"It seems that the situation under Chaoxiang Palace is not very good..."

"It seems that what was sent was an accountability telegram..."

Staff Officer Oda has seen the contents of the telegram.

However, he did not dare to tell Yoshio Shinozuka directly.

Because Asaka Miya Masahiko said in the telegram that Yoshio Shinozuka should be punished!

"Accountability telegram?"

As soon as Yoshio Shinozuka heard this, he felt something was wrong...

"Speak quickly...read it to me, the general..."

However, Staff Officer Oda did not dare to read it.

Looking at the look of Staff Oda, Yoshio Shinozuka realized something.

So, he walked directly to Staff Oda and snatched the telegram from his hand.

After reading it carefully, I can't help but break out in cold sweat!

Because, in the telegram, there was not only accountability for Yoshio Shinozuka himself.

More importantly, General Asaka Palace may really be dying...

Even....

already dead!

Yoshio Shinozuka's hands had already begun to tremble.

A prince lieutenant general died again in his province of Jin....

This is no small matter.

If the General Asakagong had died last time, he would still have some excuses.

However, this time it is different!

This is really the most important general of Tian Locust, and it just so happens that he was killed by the men of the Independent Division!

"Your Excellency, General... Your Excellency, General... are you okay..."

Staff Officer Oda asked eagerly, because he saw that Yoshio Shinozuka had begun to sweat in such a cold day!

What does this mean? Doesn’t this mean that Yoshio Shinozuka is very nervous now?

"I...I'm fine...You go out first..."

"I'll stay by myself for a while..."

Yoshio Shinozuka said weakly.

Staff Officer Oda knew that the impact of continuing to stay here would definitely be bad.

So I left knowingly.

Only Yoshio Shinozuka was left sitting on the stool alone.

"It's over now..."

"My political career may be over..."

"Two princes, what a battle I have to fight to make up for my mistakes!"

"First Independent Division, First Independent Division...You are trying to push me to the end of the road!"

Yoshio Shinozuka slowly got up from his seat.

Looking at the map on the wall...

......

And in the Japs headquarters in North China.

At this time, Major Nakano, the combat staff officer, was also coming over with a telegram.

"Your Excellency, Commander...Prince Asahiko Masahiko of Jin Province has an urgent message!"

"It's an emergency!"

This so-called Commander is the even more notorious Okamura Ningshi.

He is also a representative figure of the Japanese Army.

He belongs to the same camp as Doi Enkenji, Sakahara Seishiro and others.

At the same time, he is also an out-and-out Locust protector.

He is also an important supporter of the current Konoe cabinet.

It is possible to be transferred to other places soon...

As soon as Okamura Ningshi heard the telegram from Asaka Palace Masahiko, he immediately stood up from his seat.

"General Asaka Palace?"

"I remember that he went to Jin Province to take revenge?"

"Why did you send an emergency call?"

"Read quickly!"

Gangcun Ningsheng had a bad premonition in his heart.

Masahiko Asaka Miyazaki rarely sends him urgent calls. If he does, it must be a big problem.

"I am the commander of the fifth division, King Masahiko Asakagiya. Now I am fighting against the independent first division in Xiyang County, Jin Province..."

"But we encountered unprecedented trouble..."

"Yoshio Shinozuka is not doing his job well. I did not receive any intelligence information from him about the First Independent Division before the expedition..."

"So the wrong judgment is that the First Independent Division is just like the troops we met before..."
