Devil's Army

The paratroopers landed one after another, and the assembled paratrooper troops quickly reinforced the squad on the left.

The left squad, which was struggling to hold on, gained more confidence with the addition of the paratroopers, and stubbornly blocked the attacking Japanese troops.

As more and more paratroopers joined the battle, the Japanese troops on the left who attempted to break through the defense line were unable to resist and finally retreated.

After the first team sneaked into Suihua City and joined the paratrooper unit, they continued to pursue the retreating Japanese troops.

The retreating Japanese troops quickly retreated to the gendarmerie headquarters not far away and continued to resist stubbornly.

The first squad and the paratrooper unit immediately launched a strong attack on the Japanese military police headquarters.

After Major Kojima learned that the Devil Unit's paratroopers were attacking the Military Police Headquarters, he sent reinforcements. However, the signalman delivered a bad signal:

The Devil's Army has broken through the south gate of Suihua City. The Japanese troops at the city gate have retreated to Jinjialou, using the complex alleys and houses to resist the advance of the Devil's Army. However, the Devil's Army's attack is very fierce and may not be stopped for long. We hope to send reinforcements immediately.

Major Songjiang had no choice but to transfer the troops that were about to be sent to the military police headquarters for reinforcement to Jinjialou.

The Devil Army's artillery fire outside the city was extremely fierce, and the air force bombardment was continuous. Major Kojima's troops suffered heavy casualties, and most of the troops were sent to reinforce the South and East Gates.

However, the gendarmerie headquarters could not be lost, so he drew a troop from the headquarters' defense force and prepared to rush to the gendarmerie headquarters to reinforce it.

At this time, the commander of the 101st Regiment at the East Gate sent another telegram for help:

The devil's troops had attacked the city gate twice and were repelled by dense grenades. However, the soldiers on the city wall suffered too many casualties and their firepower had been significantly weakened, so they requested reinforcements.

Major Kojima had no choice but to transfer his troops to the east gate for reinforcement. He also sent a small group of Japanese troops to reinforce the military police headquarters.

The Japanese military police headquarters, lacking reinforcements, was quickly breached by the powerful paratroopers. A small group of Japanese reinforcements was also blocked outside the military police headquarters by the paratroopers.

The paratroopers rushed into the gendarmerie headquarters and began to clear out the remaining Japanese troops.

Intermittent gunshots were heard from the Japanese military police headquarters.

The paratroopers quickly attacked the gendarmerie headquarters cell.

They broke the locks on the cells and shouted:

"Who's Zhou Qiren..."

After a while, a voice came from the left side of the cell:

"We're here."

"Your name is Zhou Qiren?" the paratrooper squad leader pointed at the man who answered and asked.

The person who answered the call pointed to a man lying in the cell and said:

"His name is Zhou Qiren, and we are his colleagues."

"Why are you injured so badly? Can you still walk?"

"Okay, it's okay. I can walk with the two of them supporting me." The man lying on the ground forced himself to sit up and responded.

His two colleagues helped Zhou Qiren stand up and walked slowly forward.

"If the Japs hadn't been busy dealing with you, we would have received such courtesy from Mr. Zhou long ago," the man who answered the phone said.

"Captain, where should we retreat?" asked the paratrooper squad leader.

"We have already breached the southern gate of Suihua City. We are currently engaged in a fierce battle with the Japanese at Jinjialou. We are heading to Jinjialou via Saint Sophia Cathedral."

"Captain, give me a troop. I'm going to support the second squad that's blocking the Japanese troops on the right side of the church."

"Team Two, follow Captain One to reinforce the right wing of Hagia Sophia.
