    "Katsura Taro, I don't care what methods you use, you must stop the Chinese attack!" Shanxian Youpeng's eyes were red, as if he wanted to eat people, and he glared at the Minister of War Katsura Taro fiercely.  The Chinese team successfully broke through the Japanese defense line and invaded downtown Tokyo, which made Aritomo Yamagata very angry.  His Prime Minister's Office, which is also a key target of the Chinese navy, is now in ruins.  This forced Yamagata Aritomo to go to the secret headquarters established by the army.

    This is a headquarters built five meters underground and covering hundreds of square meters.  Through antennas built on the ground, it is possible to communicate with various Japanese ministries.  At the same time, the water supply and power supply in the headquarters are also complete, and the ventilation facilities are also very good. While ensuring safety performance, the comfort is also very good.

    Japanese Army Minister Katsura Taro lowered his head in front of Yamagata Aritomo, like a primary school student who made a mistake.  In today's battle, the Japanese army's performance was very poor. Not only was the Chinese army easily able to break through the defense line in the battle at Yokohama, but the performance in the battle in Tokyo was even worse.  During the daytime battle, the Japanese suffered more than 100,000 casualties.  Plus losses on the Miura Peninsula.  The Japanese army's losses have increased to 200,000 people.  As a result, the remaining strength of the Japanese army in the Tokyo area is less than 400,000.  Moreover, these 400,000 people are still defeated soldiers with low morale. How can we expect these troops to withstand the attack of the Chinese Army?

    "Mr. Yamagata, those guys are such bastards! They were asked to reinforce Tokyo, but they were just dragging their feet on the road one by one. This completely ignored the interests of the empire!" complained Katsura Taro, Minister of War.  After the attack on Tokyo.  In the name of the Minister of War, Katsura Taro requested the Japanese troops stationed in the northern and western parts of Honshu to go to Tokyo for reinforcements.  However, after the Japanese troops in these places learned that Tokyo was fighting very fiercely and the Japanese troops suffered heavy casualties, although they all stated that they would reinforce Tokyo, they tried every means to delay it on the way, which made Katsura Taro very angry.  If there were no reinforcements, he knew.  The remaining 400,000 Japanese troops near Tokyo alone cannot resist the Chinese troops.

    A flash of anger flashed in Shanxian Youpeng's eyes.  He is a veteran of the army. In his opinion, the Japanese army can only protect everyone's interests by uniting. This kind of practice of preserving strength for personal gain makes him very disgusted.

    "I will say hello to them. However, you must ensure that Tokyo is still under our control before reinforcements arrive. Tokyo is the capital of the empire. If Tokyo falls, it will be a disaster for the army and subjects of the empire.  A huge blow!" Shanxian Youpeng said.  With his prestige, as long as he spoke, no one of the army generals would dare to delay.

    "Yes, Mr. Yamagata, I guarantee that the army will withstand the Chinese attack. We will turn Tokyo into a tomb for the Chinese and let them shed all their blood in Tokyo!" Army Minister Katsura Taro vowed.  However, I don¡¯t know if his guarantee this time can still be fulfilled. Will he ensure that the defense of Uraga Waterway is impregnable like before, but it was broken by the Chinese ** team in the blink of an eye!

    Yamagata Yutomo looked very helpless as he watched Katsura Taro leave.  Japan now seems to have really reached the point of decline.  He even had some doubts about whether his long-held political stance of defeating China and obtaining the resources Japan needed for development from China was correct.  But now, not only has Japan not developed, but it is in danger of being destroyed.

    "No, I can't be wrong! The Yamato nation is the best nation in the world. Those humble Chinese people don't deserve to have such a vast territory and such rich resources. If Japan had such a vast territory  , with such abundant resources, Japan would have already become the world's most powerful country!" Yamagata Aritomo had a crazy look in his eyes.  He seemed to have forgotten that China, under the leadership of Emperor Wang Yuze, was rapidly moving towards becoming the world's most powerful country.

    Yamagata Aritomo sent a telegram to the Japanese generals who were heading towards Tokyo. After receiving the telegram from Yamagata Aritomo, those Japanese generals no longer dared to do anything casually. Even though they knew that Tokyo was very dangerous and it would be very difficult to enter Tokyo  There may be no turning back, but I still have to bite the bullet and speed towards Tokyo.  After all, they dared to defy Katsura Taro, but they did not dare to play tricks in front of Shanxian Aritomo, otherwise, they would die miserably.  However, they are still veryFortunately, before they arrived in Tokyo, the Japanese troops in the Tokyo area had to retreat due to heavy losses, leaving the capital of Japan to the Chinese troops.

    On the evening of November 7, the 44th and 45th divisions of the Eighth Army completed the landing overnight, and the army's artillery brigade and cavalry brigade also successfully landed.  This allowed the Eighth Army to demonstrate its powerful strength, especially the landing of the military artillery brigade, which gave the Eighth Army the strength to move closer to the inland areas of Tokyo.  The navy's warships can cover a maximum of ten kilometers from the seaside. Beyond fifteen kilometers, they are powerless.  It's not that the range isn't reached, it's that it's too far away and it's impossible to grasp the accuracy of the bombardment.

    On November 8, the 10th and 37th Divisions of the Eighth Army, as the vanguard, launched a fierce attack on Tokyo.  The 44th and 45th Divisions attacked on both wings to expand their results.  The military artillery brigade provided fierce artillery support to various ministries!  Although the cavalry brigade was not suitable for activities in the city, they broke through the Japanese army's blockade, passed through urban Tokyo from the flank, and attacked the Japanese army wantonly in the suburbs.  Without cavalry and intensive firepower, the Japanese army simply could not withstand the attack of the Eighth Army's cavalry brigade.  At the same time, the 9th Division and the 36th Division were also attacking Tokyo from Yokohama.  The entire Tokyo was trembling under the fierce attack of the Eighth Army.

    Street fighting is often the most brutal battle.  Especially for the attacking side, it is very disadvantageous.  The defenders can use their familiarity with the terrain and the fortifications or buildings built in advance to attack the attacking army.  However, the Chinese ** team has strengthened its training in street fighting during normal training, and has accumulated a lot of refinement in previous wars.  Although the soldiers of the Eighth Army did not participate in the previous battles of this war, they also learned a lot of experience from friendly forces. They were also able to perform with ease in street fighting and defeated the Japanese troops steadily.

    Snipers and machine gunners cover behind, and the infantry launches attacks. When encountering walls or the like, they blast them with grenades.  In this case, the battle will not be affected by getting lost.  Once you encounter a barricade or a solid firepower point built by the Japanese army, immediately call the artillery behind for support.  The mortars equipped in each platoon are very effective when dealing with these firepower points.  This also makes the mortar crews of each platoon the busiest people in street fighting.

    The Japanese army fought very tenaciously. They fought with the Chinese troops for every street, every house, and even every ruin in Tokyo.  However, facing the Chinese ** team with strong firepower and skilled tactics, they still appeared to be very weak.  Even if they shouted the slogan "The Emperor is on board" without fear of death and launched an attack on the squadron without fear of death, they would still only increase casualties.

    "The Emperor is on board!" "Kill all these Chinese people!" A small group of Japanese troops armed with old-fashioned muskets launched a charge towards a squadron of squadrons, their faces full of fanatical expressions.

    "Ta-ta-ta!" The light machine gun fired wildly, and as soon as a shuttle of bullets passed by, the Japanese soldiers fell to the ground in rows.

    "Bang! Bang! Bang!" The sniper was also firing calmly. Although his rate of fire was not fast, he was able to kill a Japanese soldier with each shot, and it was a headshot.

    Other soldiers also opened fire one after another. For a time, the charging Japanese troops suffered heavy casualties.  A team of more than fifty people was slaughtered in less than ten minutes.  Scenes like this are happening all over Tokyo. Although the Japanese army has the advantage in military strength, it is far from the opponent of the Chinese ** team in terms of weapons and equipment or combat literacy.  This caused the Japanese army to pay huge casualties, but it was unable to stop the advance of the Chinese troops.

    Some Japanese civilians who had not had time to escape also launched suicide attacks on the Chinese troops.  The soldiers of the Eighth Army had already learned about the situation encountered by the Second Army on Kyushu Island. Therefore, they did not let these Japanese go because they were civilians. Any Japanese who showed hostility to the Chinese Army would  All were killed.

    After the battle on November 8, less than half of Tokyo was under the control of the Chinese Army.  In this day's battle, the Japanese army suffered at least hundreds of thousands of casualties, but the Chinese Army's casualties were very small. The entire army suffered only less than 2,000 casualties, and most of them were minor injuries.

    That night, in order to regain the position, the Japanese army organized death squads to launch an attack.  However, the Chinese ** team was well prepared. When the Japanese army launched the attack, countless flares were launched into the sky, illuminating the dark night as if it were daytime. The figures of the Japanese soldiers who were crouching and attacking the Chinese ** team,  All is revealed.  After that, what awaited them was massacre with intensive firepower.  After the army's artillery and the navy's naval guns joined in, the Japanese attack went bankrupt due to heavy losses!

    On November 9, the Eighth Army captured??Japanese Imperial Palace, the Chinese ** team has taken over the entire Tokyo, there is no doubt anymore!
