"What are the casualties in the troops?" Shiro Ishii asked anxiously. On his way back, he had seen many soldiers being blown away by cannons.

"Report to the major, the casualties are not too serious. Only a few checkpoints at the entrances and exits and the positions where machine guns were deployed were blown up. It seems that the people on the opposite side are planning to clear the road and prepare for the next attack!" The major said calmly, appearing very steady.

"Then can we stop them?"

"Please rest assured, Lieutenant Colonel. I have asked the soldiers to find a place to hide and rebuild bunkers outside the area with dense artillery fire. I have also arranged personnel to monitor. As long as the other side stops the shelling and dares to launch an attack, our soldiers will definitely give them a head-on blow!" The major said confidently.

"Yoshi!" Seeing the Major calm and composed, Shiro Ishii relaxed his nervous mood. At the same time, he began to feel resentful towards Zhou Zhengqing: "We must teach the military police a painful lesson! How dare they attack us!"

As they were talking, a shell suddenly landed not far away, causing everyone in the office to squat down unconsciously.

"Lieutenant Colonel, you guys should hide in the basement first. Leave this place to me." The major said calmly. Even the shelling just now only made him bend his body slightly.

Seeing the major's look, Shiro Ishii, who was squatting, nodded with satisfaction, then stood up and walked towards the basement entrance first.

The basement of the main building is a huge and complex laboratory, because many facilities outside the base have not yet been built.

This basement became a temporary place for Shiro Ishii and his researchers to conduct research. It was not only built solidly, but also equipped with corresponding living facilities and even a separate generator to provide electricity.

After Shiro Ishii left, the major looked calm, looked around at the few officers who remained there, and then began to arrange defenses.

After everything was arranged and everyone went out to prepare, the major led his adjutant out of the office.

However, the direction he was heading was not to any important defense points. Instead, he quietly met up with a few trusted men and headed towards another underground prison.

Shiro Ishii would never have dreamed that the major he had high hopes for had long since failed to see that the Togo troops lacked combat experience and could not withstand the attack of the gendarmerie. He had no courage to resist from beginning to end and was already planning how to save his life.

And Zhou Zhengqing's identity is also the reason why the major is unwilling to make a fearless resistance. Knowing the outcome of the battle, it is better to find a retreat for himself.

The escape route he found for himself was to become the staff officer of the Togo unit, the person who secretly reported to the commander of the Kwantung Army that Ishii Shiro was disobeying his orders.

Because he repeatedly persuaded Shiro Ishii not to resist, the angry Shiro Ishii locked him up.

More than half an hour later.

Just as the Togo troops gathered a large number of fully armed soldiers at various entrances, ready for battle.

Suddenly, there was a deafening bang, mixed with the roar caused by the shells falling to the ground, and suddenly exploded!

The sound was like a bolt from the blue, terrifying.

Several soldiers hiding near the wall looked at the scene in front of them with horror. The extremely solid wall was blown into a huge hole!

However, before they could take any countermeasures, they saw mortar shells pouring down from the sky like a torrential rain.

In an instant, the shells exploded around the breach in the wall, forming balls of dazzling fire, covering a large area near the breach in the wall with scattered fragments.

Immediately afterwards, a group of gendarmes holding Type 38 rifles, wearing conspicuous gendarme armbands on their arms and victory belts on their heads that symbolize victory and determination, rushed in from the thick smoke like tigers descending from the mountains.

They moved swiftly and skillfully, setting up machine guns at several key locations in a lightning speed and firmly holding on to the damaged areas of the wall.

They showed an indestructible attitude and were determined to defend this crucial offensive route for the follow-up troops.

Not too far from here is the northern entrance and exit of the Togo troops. At this time, a large number of Togo troops soldiers are hiding outside the artillery bombardment area, ready to block the invading gendarmes at any time.

When a gap was blown in the wall and the military police appeared, the officers of the Togo unit who were in charge of the defense and had little combat experience immediately shouted at the top of their lungs and ordered the soldiers to rush to the gap to block it immediately.

At the order of their superiors, the soldiers rushed out of their hiding places in a panic and rushed towards the broken gap in the wall, trying to stop the group of gendarmes who were rushing in.

However, the next moment, the artillery that had been bombarding the entrance of the base suddenly changed the direction of its firing and began firing towards the wall.

The deafening roar of cannons and the whistling shells were like a ferocious beast with its bloody mouth open, ruthlessly devouring everything around it.

The sudden change frightened the soldiers who were about to go to block the gap in the wall, and they quickly retreated to their original shelters like frightened birds.

Seeing their subordinates retreat one after another, several officers became furious and kept cursing.

Some of the officers were so emotional that they gave orders without hesitation and shot and killed several soldiers who tried to escape.

Although this practice seems extremely cruel and brutal, it has achieved certain results.

Under the severe intimidation of their superiors, the soldiers had no choice but to bite the bullet and brave the huge danger of falling shells at any time. They desperately crossed the explosion area filled with smoke and flames, and charged bravely towards the broken wall regardless of everything.

There were also some more sober officers who commanded a small number of soldiers to stay and continue monitoring the direction of the entrance.

But at this time, the major in charge of defense of the Togo unit could not be found. Even if some sober officers realized that something was wrong, it was of no use. They could not persuade those officers who had become crazy because of fear.

Those officers had been frightened by the artillery bombardment and had lost most of their sanity. They just wanted madly to eliminate all the enemies they saw. They instinctively thought that as long as they quickly eliminated the gendarmerie commandos, they would be safe.

At this time, loud noises were heard from the directions of several other walls, and at the same time, gaps were blown in the walls in four places.

Similarly, gendarmerie commandos poured in from these gaps, continued to occupy terrain, set up machine guns, and set up defensive formations to lure the Togo troops hiding in bunkers to block them.

Moreover, very good results were achieved, and basically all the Dongxiang troops were mobilized.

They left their bunkers one after another and rushed to the gaps in the walls under fire. . .
