Fajin Han knew Shire well, yet he didn't really understand him.
Fajin Han had studied every battle Shire had been involved in and was familiar with every piece of equipment Shire had invented, especially the "Mark I" tank.
He even boldly analyzed, estimated, and guessed what kind of tactics Shire might develop around the tank in the future.
But unfortunately, once again, Fajin Han found himself lagging behind, unable to keep up with Shire's pace.
...
When Shire was analyzing the battle plan on the train, he emphasized, "When breaking through in the direction of Rhodes, make sure to use the 'Mark I' type. Do not expose the new tanks!"
Both Brownie and Colonel Estiny responded with an involuntary "hmm," assuming that Shire intended to use the new tanks as a secret weapon to surprise the Germans when facing them directly on Samok Straight.
