"Report to the commander-in-chief, the commandos of the Eastern Front have broken through the second line of defense of the Japanese army ... The troops did not suffer much loss ...."

"Report to the commander-in-chief that the commandos of the Western Front have broken through into the city of Tokyo. However, under the attack of the Japanese street fighting units, three tanks, four armored fighting vehicles have already been lost ... Commander Wang asked for instructions on whether to suspend the offensive and advance step by step after stabilizing the occupied area..."Another operational staff officer reported.

In the blink of an eye, under the cover of tank armored fighting vehicles, the four-way commandos broke through the fragile defense line deployed by the Japanese army outside the city and attacked the city...

After carefully analyzing the latest battle reports sent by various units, Zuo Quan said: "Commander-in-chief, street fighting is very unfavorable to our armored troops... You see, don't you listen to the ideas of the front-line commanders and suspend the offensive ...."

"No... Not only could it not be stopped, but it was also necessary to speed up the pace of the attack....taking advantage of the favorable time when the Japanese army in the city was in chaos, the entire city of Tokyo was directly divided into four. At the same time, go straight to the palace of Emperor Hirohito of Japan...."Liu Hua replied with a firm face.

Seeing the puzzled Zuo Quan in front of him, he continued to speak: "As for the unfavorable situation of street fighting against our armored forces, it depends on how we use these tanks and armored fighting vehicles...."

"Chief of Staff, I don't know if you still remember, before my expeditionary force sent troops, why did I add so many heavy artillery and armored units to my troops...."

Regarding Liu Hua's reminder, Zuo Quan immediately reacted and asked directly.

"Commander-in-Chief. You mean to open the way with cannonballs ...."

Liu Hua nodded noncommittally. Then he explained.

"Chief of Staff, after half an hour of shelling, we have caused huge casualties to Japanese civilians in the city of Tokyo. Since we want to do it, let's do it to the end, and don't forget that we will always be aggressors to the Japanese, and we will never be able to win the hearts and minds of the Japanese..."

Having said this, a thick murderous aura directly appeared on Liu Hua's face. Without the slightest hesitation. With a firm face, he ordered: "Order all assault teams to immediately open the way with artillery and destroy all buildings along the way that may hide Japanese troops....tank artillery is not enough, draw field artillery from the rear....In a word." Before dawn, all the commandos must attack outside the palace of the little devil emperor..."

"Yes....Commander-in-Chief...."

On both sides of the street leading to the Imperial Palace on the southern line of Tokyo, the assault group of more than 20 tanks and armored fighting vehicles has lost as many as four under the attack of the Japanese troops hiding on both sides of the street....

In the face of the Japanese stragglers who were everywhere in the street fighting fortifications and made themselves defenseless, the face of the commando captain Li Guodong had already turned blue.

"The little devil of the dog day, there was no such a big loss in the siege of the city, and after entering the city, the loss was even bigger....it made Lao Tzu angry. A single shell went down and blew up all these houses, leaving you with nowhere to hide..."Looking at the sudden heavy casualties of the commando in front of him, Li Guodong scolded angrily.

"Commander, just sit down and dissipate your anger... Without an order from above, if my door was opened rashly, causing a large number of Japanese civilian casualties, this result would not be something we could afford...."The political commissar next to him was taken aback and hurriedly persuaded him.

"Dead is dead. Anyway, they are all little devils, and they are not us Chinese....I promise that if the commander-in-chief were standing here, he would definitely order us to open fire...." Regarding the political commissar's persuasion, Li Guodong said angrily.

Forthwith. He asked anxiously at the communications soldier behind him.

"Correspondent, there is no order from the General Headquarters yet..."

"There is...."Li Guodong's voice just fell. The correspondent's excited voice sounded....At the same time, a telegram was directly handed to Li Guodong.......

After quickly scanning the telegram in his hand, a smile of excitement appeared directly on Li Guodong's face...

"Holy shit, I said that the commander-in-chief would agree to let us open fire....you know, the lives of our soldiers are several times more expensive than the little devil gold....political commissar, you see, the commander-in-chief agreed to our request, and we can fire artillery in the city...."

After handing the telegram in his hand to the political commissar, Li Guodong no longer paid attention to his old partner who was stunned by him, and ordered to the several battalion commanders waiting for orders in front of him.

"Comrades, the telegram from the commander-in-chief has arrived....immediately get me back to my place, let's use cannonballs to open the way, bury all the little devils in the rubble, and see how it is arrogant in front of us...."

"Yes, division commander...."

Looking at the battalion commander who was leaving quickly, Li Guodong turned around directly and said to the communication soldier who had been on standby behind him.

"Xiao Wang, you immediately send a telegram to the army commander, hoping that the army commander can send a field artillery regiment into the city to reinforce us....In addition, send a telegram to the logistics troops, we urgently need to replenish a large number of artillery shells...."

And at this moment, in a residential house less than two hundred meters away from the commando position, about a squadron of elite Japanese troops, under the command of a junior officer, was distributing a large number of explosives that had just been issued by the superior to blast tanks and armored fighting vehicles....

"Warriors, the performance of the 1st Squadron, I believe everyone has seen it..."

"More than 100 warriors not only succeeded in destroying four tanks in the squadron, but also killed and wounded a large number of Chinese infantry, so to speak, the whole battle achieved very significant results. Although more than 100 warriors have been shattered by the entire army, their achievements have not only been praised by the General Staff Headquarters, but also personally affirmed by His Majesty the Emperor..."

"Therefore, I hope that our 2nd Infantry Squadron will be able to live up to expectations and achieve greater results."

"Now I order, all combat squads, battle groups, to immediately enter the predetermined combat positions. Once the squadron is deep into our ambush circle, it is necessary to attack with the fiercest and inflict a large number of casualties on the squadron's vital forces....warriors, please? The young officer ordered with a serious face.

"Ha Yi," dozens of officers replied with solemn expressions.

Immediately, more than 100 devil soldiers with weapons on their shoulders, grenades and explosives around their waists disappeared from the sight of the young officer along the hole that had already been made through the wall....

At the same time, twenty tanks and armored combat vehicles, which had just stood still, also moved ...

"Yo Xi, the squadron is finally in action... Order all attacking troops to prepare for battle...."With the performance of the first squadron, Officer Shaozo could be said to be full of expectations for the next actions of his subordinates, and ordered with an expectant face.

However, as the dozens of tanks at the head got closer and closer to him, he was still full of confidence just now, and his face suddenly turned pale....

A deafening explosion came from the front, and three orange-red flames erupted directly from the barrels of the three tanks. Three large-caliber tank artillery shells, also propelled by huge kinetic energy, with a whistling sound, flew directly into both sides of the street, completely concealing the houses of about a combat group ....

With the sound of a series of shells exploding, the entire house, in the explosion of three shells, directly turned into a pile of rubble ....

As for the little devil soldiers hidden in the houses, without exception, they were buried alive in the rubble without even seeing their opponents.

"Baga, cunning Chinese, how can you damage people's houses, how can you shell people's houses, I want to expose their brutality to the international community, Bage Yalu..." The major officer couldn't help but curse loudly.

However, regardless of whether his scolding is justified or not. Just as he roared, another house that hid more than a dozen Imperial soldiers was once again reduced to ruins under the rumbling cannon.......

In the blink of an eye....The only remaining twenty tanks and armored fighting vehicles of the squadron were like conducting an artillery battle training, directly firing shells directly at the houses on both sides of the street....

The houses located on both sides of the street, because of their fragile wooden structure, simply could not withstand the attack of several shells in a row ....

One house after another, like toys, was blown to rubble by the explosion of Chinese tank shells.

An infantry squadron that had been carefully deployed on both sides of the street, ready to deal a fatal blow to the squadron, was also buried in patches of rubble under the stunned gaze of this young officer....

Tank guns, field guns....rain of shells, began to destroy the houses on both sides of the street....

The Japanese street fighting troops, after losing cover to receive the buildings on both sides. In the face of the large-caliber machine guns equipped on armored combat vehicles, there is no resistance at all. Either it was beaten straight into a pile of minced meat, or it turned into a corpse full of punches....

In this way, the Fourth Route Commando of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, in the eyes of the Japanese army, was like four huge bulldozers, destroying the buildings on both sides of the street, and slowly advancing the battle line towards the Imperial Palace of Emperor Hirohito in the center of the city....

An hour, two hours ....

Finally, under the nervous gaze of everyone on the battlefield, the palace of Emperor Hirohito of Japan was completely displayed in front of everyone in the Chinese Expeditionary Force. Of course, the various barricades temporarily constructed by the three infantry wings of the Guards Division around the palace also appeared clearly in front of everyone....

"Dog, I finally saw the palace of the little devils....immediately send a report to the commander-in-chief, I, Li Guodong, personally led the team to launch a general attack on the palace of the little devils, and captured the little devil Emperor Hirohito...."Looking at the Japanese Guards Division in front of him, Li Guodong said excitedly when he saw the Japanese Imperial Palace behind the last line of defense of the Japanese army.

"Yes, division commander, I'll send a telegram right away...."The political commissar who followed closely said with the same bright face.
