In the spring of 1938, the Japanese launched their Wuhan Campaign. A two-pronged attack would converge at the old city of Taierzhuang. Surrounded by canals, this walled town would lated be dubbed, China's Stalingrad. The Japanese 10th Division began their assaults on the city at the end of March. The initial assaults were beaten back, but a renewed effort accompanied by Type 94 Tankettes and supported by air and artillery assets would breach the defenses at the northeastern corner of the town. From there the Japanese spread out into the narrow streets and canals of Taierzhuang. But unknown to the Japanese, the Chinese had begun surrounding the town with the last of the elite, German-trained divisions. The tides of war would soon shift in Taierzhuang,
