On the afternoon of December 7, Wang Zhong had just arrived at the school when he saw a tractor towing a tank stopped in front of the main school building.
Wang Zhong's office was at the rooftop of the main building, so his motorcade could only stop next to the tractor and the tank.
After getting out of his car, Wang Zhong looked carefully and recognized it as a Panzer IV Type F tank; once the Type F with the long-barreled gun, the Panzer IV F2, had come out, the Type F would be renamed as Type F1.
Wang Zhong reached out to touch the additional armor plates welded onto the front of the tank and clicked his tongue— the armor plates were 50 millimeters thick, and it was unclear whether this was a battlefield modification or if it was standard issue for the Prosen version of the Panzer IV Type F.
