since they're outside the wall, there's no issue of collateral damage then?

Fireballs would be pretty effective against tanks... But this is not a manga with common sense
@Robbini
Well ... Let's assume that Japan's enemy doesn't know better as you assume. Even then :
a) No army marches battery rams unguarded. If you wake up in the morning and see "battery rams" appearing out of the fog, you just don't assume that they came out alone ... you assume that they brought auxiliary troops of some kind that you aren't seeing due to the fog, maybe an ambush in the making. In any case, logic demands that you send scouting troops, most likely light cav in this context, to assess what is the real situation . NOT making a fully clad heavy cavalry charge
b) They have walls, so they don't have to put men to catch bullets, magic or not. That is why walls are made after all
c) Even if they feel they can't sustain being behind walls, when they decide to put their heavy infantry out, they know that the armor is not effective. More, even them have long range attacks with high splash area, so they have to know from their own experience that sending a compact formation of infantry armored or not against long range attacks of that kind is stupid.
That is what is irking me in this chapter. In the previous chapters, the Human empire generalship was shown to be outclassed by a technologically more advanced enemy, but definitely not incompetent or stupid. In this chapter , they start smart by laying down an ambush , but after that .... stupid decisions all the way. If the autor had added a blurb about how the best generals had died in the first combats, this would be more palatable, but that is not the case here ...

I was making a comment on Japanese history ... Manchuria invasion? We were protecting Japan(ese interests) . Invasion of China? We were protecting Japan ( of our own false flag attacks, and of more or less invented human smuggling rings that kidnapped Japanese nationals to China ) Pearl Harbor ? We were defending Japan by trying to remove the US carrier fleet out of the Pacific, because the USA were already very hostile to Japan. Invasion of Indonesia and Timor? We were protecting the local ( resources of rubber and oil ) from te British and the ANZAC ( in that one they were somewhat justified, though ... the Brits and the ANZAC did invade Indonesia and Timor without asking Portugal and the Netherlands if they were welcome )
It is not exactly a Japan-only behaviour, but Imperial Japan sure loved to protect Japan everywhere but in Japan :/
