Devil's Army

With the arrival of the main force of the Second Battalion, the guards on both sides of the palace began to be at a disadvantage and their firepower was suppressed.

The palace guards on the left could not hold out and began to retreat.

The soldiers of the Second Battalion and the Third Company did not pursue the fleeing palace guards, but instead joined forces with the main force of the First Battalion at the gate to attack the guards at the palace gate.

A group of soldiers attacked while shouting that they would not be killed if they surrendered their weapons.

Seeing that there was no way to resist the attack of the devil's troops, the captain of the guard had to order his team members to lay down their weapons and surrender.

The second battalion commander ordered the soldiers of the first company to escort the palace guards back to the regiment headquarters. He led a large force to continue to eliminate the remaining Japanese and puppet troops.

When a company was escorting the guard prisoners through a remote path, they heard intense and continuous gunfire and explosions.

The company commander looked toward the end of the path in confusion.

Now the battle in Xinjing University is basically over, and the sounds of gunfire coming from all over are sporadic and short. But why is the gunfire here so intense and continuous?

"Where is that place?" the company commander asked the captain of the guard.

"That was an important base of the Japanese army. We didn't know what it was used for because they never let us in."

"An important base of the Japanese army." The company commander felt it necessary to tell the information to the troops attacking here.

He asked the soldiers to continue to take the prisoners of the escort back to the regiment headquarters. He and several soldiers came to the place where the fierce battle with the Japanese army took place.

The first company arrived at the battalion headquarters of the first battalion of the second regiment of the fourth brigade, which was attacking an important Japanese base.

The battalion commander was also wondering why there were so many Japanese troops guarding this remote place, and why these Japanese troops were very powerful and well-equipped with weapons.

When he heard the report from the company commander, he felt that things were not that simple, so he quickly reported the information.

Leng Feng saw that the two main brigades of the Fourth Brigade and the Seventh Brigade had been attacking Xinjing for many days and had not yet completely ended the battle. He brought a guard to the Fourth Brigade headquarters outside Xinjing City.

Wang Zhuangfei saw Leng Feng and shouted in surprise:

"My commander-in-chief, it's so dangerous here, why did you come here?"

"I came here to learn about the current situation in Xinjing."

"My commander-in-chief, if you want to know the situation in Xinjing, just send me a telegram. Can you please stop doing things that make my heart beat wildly?" Wang Zhuangfei reproached.

"Should I do something that would make your heart stop?"

Wang Zhuangfei couldn't argue with Leng Feng, so he turned around and asked the guards to extend the cordon by 10 kilometers in all directions.

At this time, the signalman took a telegram from the second regiment commander and hurriedly handed it to Wang Zhuangfei.

After seeing this, Wang Zhuangfei frowned.

"What happened?" Leng Feng asked.

Wang Zhuangfei handed the telegram to Leng Feng.

Leng Feng looked at it and said to himself:

"The Japanese army must have heavily guarded the headquarters, artillery positions and some important bases."

"The Japanese headquarters has retreated, and we have destroyed two artillery positions. So what important bases are there?" Wang Zhuangfei asked doubtfully.

"Xinjing is the headquarters of the Japanese Kwantung Army and the capital of the puppet state of Manchukuo. However, the Kwantung Army headquarters has already retreated, and the Japanese army cannot spend a lot of troops to defend the capital of a puppet government. That can only mean that this base is very important to them."

"What is that place? Is it the armory?"

"This place is very close to Harbin, where the headquarters of the Japanese Army's Unit 731 was located. Could it be...?"

Leng Feng didn't dare to think further.
