A tank commander was teleported to Equestria, which is at war.

Jake Chen, a tank commander of a ZTZ-96A main battle tank of the PLA 35th tank platoon. While at training, he was friendly-fired. Upon losing his physical body, his soul had somehow teleported into another world full of mythical beings; but their situation is not positive.

For 3 years, Equestria and its allies had been fighting against Grogar and his massive army; technologies advanced quickly; but their levels are at the 1940s comparing to the humans. The teleported commander Jake's soul was transported into a body of a dragon name Qibli (Yes I got it from Wings of Fire), he's also a tank commander. A new soul that came from a world with highly advanced technologies, how would he change the tide of the war?

"Maus? King Tiger? Jagdtiger? I dare you to challenge me, but the result aren't gonna be pretty!"

Chapter 1: A New Battlefield

Author's Note

I'm gonna change my style of writing and make them short. That way I can get them done fast and more rooms for future chapters.

Chapter 1: A New Battlefield

BOOM!!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!!

Jake was staring in both awe and shock at his surroundings, hellfire, tanks, and.... horses? Dragons? Unicorns?! Hippogriffs?!?!
What the bloody hell? Am I day dreaming? Jake's mind is swirling with questions, he rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't dreaming; he wasn't. Wait, why does his hands felt weird? Jake looked down, his eyes widened; his has claws instead of hands! Scaly ones like the dragons, a pair of dragon-like wings on his back, spikes on his head; wait a tank cap? He then looked down; surprised to found out that this tank isn't the one he commanded before.

Jake still remembered that before this whole shit happened; Jake Chen, 24 year-old, rank captain, commander of ZTZ-96A main battle tank 237. Jake and his platoon were having a real-life combat training, it when well until this happened: An "enemy" ATGM carriage fired an actual missile at him instead of a fake missile! Feeling his tank rumbles and fire surrounding him, Jake's vision went dark and passed out. And THIS! This is what he saw when he woke up! In a unknown battlefield with mythical beings! At war!

Jake checked the tank he's currently on; luckily it's a T-34/76 medium tank. He wasn't sure how did these creatures have a T-34 and the equipments, but he decided to bear with it.

Suddenly, another explosions on his right, Jake looked at the direction and was shocked to see another T-34 shot and burned inside-out. The crews crawled out from the tank, covered in fire as the rolled on the ground, screaming in agony. They were burned alive.

This isn't a dream! This... This is real!

Jake realized it, he is in an actual combat in an actual tank, and in an actual WAR!!!

Looking beyond, he spotted more than 20 tanks with a weird looking markings on their turret quickly advancing towards their direction.

It looks like... Pzkpfw IIIs?! How in the bloody hell did these.... creatures get those?! The Panzer III. Ls were German medium tanks during world war II, armed with a 50mm gun and two 7.92mm machine guns. It's the main arrangements for the early German Panzer army. Light and fast, designed for the German's Blitzgreg. But how in the bloody... I said that too much eh?

For whatever reason, these creatures somehow got them.

In the meantime, many memories and awareness swirl in his brain. This world is known as Equestria, with many mythical creatures living outside and inside. Unicorns, Pegasus, Earth Ponies, Griffons, Dragons, Hippogriffs, Changelings, Kirin, etc. And their technology level is currently same as the ones in world war II according to Jake. They're currently fighting a fearsome creature name Grogar and his massive army. However, Grogar's army launched a surprise attack against Equestrian, it caught them off-guard. With the declaration of war against Grogar, the allies of Equestria also joined in.

"Commander Qibli! Commander Qibli!" His thoughts were interrupted when he heard someone tapping his legs from the turret. The gun loader was worried, he heard a HE explosion outside the turret. For a second he thought their commander is KIA, but after sensing movement from him, he figured out the commander was just stunned.

"Target! 500 yards, Panzer IIIs, load Armor Piercing! Fire when ready!" Qibli took out the radio and gave his orders, "Watch the wind, adjust one digit to the right!"

Just in this moment, Jake accepted his new body and new life; now his soul was fully connected to his host, a dragon tank commander name Qibli. This is war, you stay, you fight.

"Understood!" Loader, a male changeling name Thrax around his 20s, picked up a seventy six point two millimeter APHE round and stuffed it inside the cannon breach.

The gunner, a young female dragon name Smolder immediately started to spin the turret. The scope locked onto the enemy panzer. Though it's a sudden encounter, but they aren't gonna go easy.

BOOM!

Smolder stepped on the trigger, the entire hull of the T-34 shook as its main gun was fired.

APHE, a.k.a Armor Piercing High Explosive. The tank turret at this period of time were usually parallel, which means the if a regular AP round hits it, then there'll be a higher chance of ricochet off, especially of the round is spinning. APHE, however, has a cap in the front of the round, made of soft metal plates; this design prevent the round from ricocheting off the turret.

500 yards, the round arrived at the enemy tank in less than a second.

The seventy six point two millimeter APHE round easily tore the Panzer III's thin sheet of armor open. Just like cutting through butter, without any resistance the APHE exploded inside the tank. The shards reached the ammo rack. It detonates.

KA-POOM!!!

With a massive explosion, the Panzer III was shredded to pieces from inside-out. This is Jake; or now known as Qibli's first kill upon arriving this new, yet bloody battlefield.

Chapter 2: Critical Damage

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Chapter 3: Shredder

A 50 millimeter round bounced off their rear, making the entire tank rang again. But this time, the crew were ready, everycreature has their cap on, but it still hurt their ears though. Smolder was first to recover and react, she quickly turned the turret towards the enemy direction.

Qibli shook his head, recovering from the ear-raping noise, "Ah shit!" he grumbled, "Thrax! Load an AP and give them cocks to suck on!" The changeling loader grabbed an sharp-edged AP round and pushed it into the breach. Smolder had not waste a second, she stepped on the trigger and watch the round go through her scope.

That round went straight through the frontal plate of the Panzer III and detonated the ammo rack. With a ,mighty explosion, the turret flew up at least 10 feet before coming down, which somehow landed on another Panzer III. The unlucky Panzer III lost sight and rammed into another; the entire formation were getting chaotic.

"Are you seeing what I'm seeing?" Smolder asked.

"You mean those cocksuckers friendly-firing themselves?" Qibli answered with a bit of humor in his tone, "Well, duh! This is something we don't see everyday." He then turned to Thrax, "Mind giving them their prize for 'Helping' us?"

"No Prob man." Thrax replied with another round into the breach.

Commander Nightblade of the 12th Blitz tank battalion is furious, for the first time in his life, he saw the most dramatic thing ever; a freaking turret of a random shit hole landed on another than, then it rammed into another one, then another one!

He's done with this whole embarrassing shit.

"Everycreature stop fucking ramming and start fighting!" he roared into the radio, it cracked a little, but he ignored it, "There's only one tank, ONE FUCKING TANK! TAAAAKE HIM OOOOUT!!!!!"

Meanwhile, inside Qibli's tank.

Smolder fired off another round, which turned another Panzer III into a massive firework. For a swift second, Qibli thought he's watching movie; everything that just happened are... just... dramatic. But his eyes widened when he saw more than twenty guns aiming directly at his tank.

"OH SHIT!!! DRIVER! BREAK!!! BREAAAAKE!!!"

Gray Hoofs stepped on the break and pulled the levers backs hard as he could, just a second after that, twenty rounds landed exactly 4 inches from the T-34's frontal plate. Smolder was sweating like hell, while Thrax is just frozen. Gray Hoofs looks like he's about to have a heart attack; make sense cuz he's 48 year-old and smoke all the time.

Qibli won't waste any precious time, right after they had close encounter with death itself, QIbli shouted into everycreature's ears, "DRIVER MOVE OUT! THRAX LOAD AP! SMOLDER GIVE' EM HELLLL!!!"

Gray Hoofs let out a cry as he pushed the levers forward while stepping on the accelerator, Smolder looks like she's about to have a mental breakdown as her leg tapped on the trigger rapidly, Thrax is stuffing and getting rounds like an autoloader.

The F-34 seventy-six point two cannon was like a massive machine gun, shredding the enemies as if they're grasses. Even Commander Nighblade is having cold sweats as he watched this... demon shredding his tanks. Nightblade is shocked, never in his military career had he witness such terrifying battle... No, a simple massacre! But he knew that T-34's crew aren't gonna do that forever. He is correct.

"Crap! We're out of ammo!" Thrax reported, both him and Smolder were sweating like somecreature poured water on them, the barrel of the main gun is slightly turning red due to the rapid firing, "The gun's dead, overheated!" Smolder said while panting, "I guess this is it."

"Welp, at least we killed almost an entire battalion of them." said Qibli, is this how his short life gonna end? In this unfamiliar world? At least he'll be KIA. Every soldier wanted a glorious death, that's their last wish.

Qibli closed his eyes, waiting fro death to come. Explosions were heard. Wait... heard? How can he hear stuff if he's dead?

Qibli scrambled as he opened the hatch, shocked and surprised to see that numerous tanks; KV-1s and T-34s, rushing into the battlefield, slaughtering the remaining Panzer IIIs. Thank god! Qibli sighed in relief. He looked at his comrades, which is still keeping their eyes shut.

"Ok thats enough, stop playing dead." he pushed his friends.

"Are... are we dead?" Thrax asked.

"You would if you just sit there." Qibli answered, Gray Hoofs started the tank again, "For god's sake that's hel--- what are you all looking at me like that?" Qibli stopped when he saw his comrades staring at him, which started to creep him out.

"For CELESTIA'S sake. That's how you say it." Thrax corrected.

"Oh, heh, uh... Guess I hit my head a bit too hard." Qibli sighed, for god's---- Celestia's sake why's this so hard? Qibli climbed out of his turret while waving his claws, "Hold your fire! Friendlies here!" But the second he said that, he heard a round coming, it impacted the ground next to him. Feeling airborne due to the shock wave, one sentence flashed through him before he passed out.

Fuck, got friendly-fired again!
