East of Shengjing.

It's late at night, and falling asleep is impossible in Shengjing now.

Inside the bunker, the Japanese combat command room.

The sound of telegraphs never stopped, as did the explosions of heavy artillery, echoing in the command room.

Mijiro Tani sat in the middle, his eyes no longer looking at the map, nor at the staff officer standing in front of him who looked busy but no one knew what he was busy with.

His legs kept shaking and his eyes were full of solemnity, because this battle would involve the Nobuno Division, the only remaining heavy artillery hidden in Shengjing, and the support troops from Chuncheng, all of which were on the table.

The heavy artillery was scattered and the overall artillery coordination was lacking, but there was nothing that could be done about it. After all, they had to better defend against the Tiger Brigade's heavy artillery, delay the time of destruction, and give the Nobuno Division and the Chuncheng support forces plenty of time to destroy the Tiger Brigade's heavy artillery.

Mijiro Tani, who was waiting for news, had a serious expression on his face. However, the one who was even more serious than Mijiro Tani was Kudo Sanbon next to him. He even didn't dare to move his feet, and he tried his best to hide among the staff to minimize his presence.

"Heavy artillery bombardment. As long as the battle begins, surrounded by enemies on three sides... victory is certain."

"At the very least, we should be able to severely damage the Tiger Brigade's heavy artillery positions. As long as Lin Tianchen loses the heavy artillery positions, both their offense and defense will be greatly reduced."

Mijiro Tani was actually very nervous because this matter concerned his life and death.

In the past, he didn't need to worry about three artillery positions attacking one, because in his opinion, as long as the opponent dared to fight back, they would definitely be beaten to pieces by their heavy artillery.

But when facing Lin Tianchen, he could no longer muster that kind of confidence. No matter how big the advantage was, he was defeated again and again.

Until a messenger walked into the command room, Mijiro Tani suddenly looked up and spoke quickly:

"Read!"

Before the messenger could walk towards Kudo Sanbon, Mijiro Tani spoke directly and seriously.

After hearing the news, the messenger trembled all over and dared not delay with the telegram in his hand.

"We discovered numerous flashes of fire from the Tiger Brigade's heavy artillery positions, and even reports of ammunition exploding..."

When this news came out, some of the staff in the command room felt a little relieved. They had put all their heavy artillery chips into the bombardment this time.

You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. As long as we can get rid of the heavy artillery of the Tiger Brigade, everything will be worth it.

This also made many commanders in the command room smile unconsciously on their faces after hearing the news, but Kudo Mikio appeared even further back.

This was a good thing, but he had no part in it. Based on his experience, it was very likely that bad news would come.

"Is there any substantial data?" Mijiro Tani asked seriously.

“…Not yet.”

As soon as these words were spoken, Mijiro Tani's expression suddenly became serious. After all, he had experienced too many situations where he was happy too soon before this.

Now I have formed the habit of not being happy too early.

"The Empire's casualties are clearly not good, but the Tiger Brigade suffered heavy losses with just a few secondary explosions. Haven't you been fooled enough by Lin Tianchen's tricks? Exploring!!!"

Mijiro Tani's expression was extremely serious, and no one in the combat command room dared to refute what he said.

They have been fooled by Lin Tianchen too many times. The real and fake Lin Tianchen make them feel ashamed now. They wasted so many troops in Changbai Mountain, which affected their decision-making judgment.

The change of tactics forced them to clench their fists and hurriedly leave Jincheng, which they had just captured, to rush to the rescue. It was an ambush from beginning to end. In the end, the two Kwantung divisions were reduced to only 6,000 people and had no choice but to return to the rear for rest.

Therefore, now Mijiro Tani has been reminding himself not to be happy too soon. As long as the heavy artillery positions in Shengjing can be delayed long enough, they will be more likely to succeed in destroying the heavy artillery of the Tiger Brigade.

At any artillery position in the world, if you face three different directions at the same time, you will definitely lose the bombardment.

Just as Mijiro Tani finished his words, another messenger came into the command room before the previous one left.

After the messenger stepped in, he immediately discovered Kudo Sanbon behind the hidden staff officer. He could clearly see Kudo Sanbon's gradually enlarging pupils. The messenger lowered his head guiltily, put the message in his hand into Kudo Sanbon's hand, and quickly gave the order to be promoted and withdraw.

Kudo Sanbon looked down at the report in his hand, met the sharp gaze of Tanii Mijiro, and looked down. His voice was not loud, but it was heard clearly in the command room of the fund.

"The heavy artillery positions in the city have lost contact. The Nobuno Division and the Chuncheng support forces have reported that they have come under heavy artillery fire from the Tiger Brigade. They have lost more than half of their artillery positions and are currently adjusting their positions."

As soon as Kudo Sanbon's voice was heard, the staff in the entire command room looked at each other in disbelief. For a moment, this news made them wonder if they had heard it wrong.

The three artillery positions, the Nobuno Division which was famous for its heavy artillery, and the heavy artillery units they supported, were actually unable to defeat the artillery of a Tiger Brigade.

This was an exposed artillery position, and before the exchange of fire, their purpose was very clear, which was to target the heavy artillery of the Tiger Brigade. But now, the heavy artillery positions on three sides had suffered huge losses, which made them dare not even think about it.

"How is it possible... How is it possible..."

Mijiro Tani's face turned pale from the feeling of suffocation. The chandelier was shaking, and his shadow kept swaying in the command room, as if he was about to fall down at any time.

etc.

Although he had made the worst-case scenario plan, the bottom line was still completely beyond his expectations. None of the three heavy artillery positions could defeat the Tiger Brigade.

It suddenly smelled the scent of failure this time, and if it failed this time, he would definitely commit suicide by cutting his stomach, and there was no way he could do it even if he didn't want to. The pressure on him was not only from all parties, but also from his family.

"Sir, do you want us to send troops to cover the evacuation of the heavy artillery unit?" A staff officer whispered in the combat command room.

"Evacuate? Asshole! We can't lose the glory of the Empire!"

Mijiro Tani's tone was very firm. To retreat at this time would be tantamount to admitting defeat. If the news got to the higher-ups, he would surely receive a death letter.

So retreat is absolutely impossible. Mijiro Tanii's eyes looked a little crazy, even full of paranoia.

"Kudo Sanbon! Order the entire city to launch a major counterattack. All supporting forces should increase the intensity of the attack..."

Mijiro Tani now knows very well that he has nowhere to retreat, so he might as well give it a try.

If the Huben Brigade could choose to attack Shengjing, he could also completely mess up the current battle situation.
