Swiftly Advancing Through Japan

By the dawn of the next day, the German invasion of the Japanese Mainland was fully underway. Major Herman von Habsburg, who had previously been promoted for his actions on the battlefield, sat on top of a panther tank with a cigarette in one hand as the armored vehicle strolled through the smouldering ruins of a Samurai clan's castle. 

The last of an ancient bloodline had holed themselves up in the most fortified part of the castle, and were refusing to surrender. As a result, Herman had ordered for a tank to enter the courtyard. The 7.5cm gun of the Panther tank was aimed right at the castles's entrance, while Herman continued to smoke his cigarette. 

After taking one last drag from his cigarette and stamping the device out, Herman grabbed hold of a bullhorn and began to speak in the Japanese language towards the Samurai family, which continued to resist the German Marines.
