A large number of Japanese soldiers surged in like a tide.

They were all armed with standard-issue weapons, their gleaming bayonets flashing with a chilling light in the dim light.

They ran quickly towards Su Mingzhe's location with neat and powerful steps.

At a glance, this force is twice as large as the army military police who arrested Su Mingzhe.

Moreover, their uniforms were noticeably newer, and their weapons and equipment were more sophisticated.

At this tense moment, a sharp-eyed Japanese naval squad leader spotted Su Mingzhe, who was caught up in the crowd.

He was taken aback at first, then exclaimed loudly:

"It's Squad Leader Tian Ping! They've arrested Squad Leader Tian Ping!"

This shout instantly froze the surrounding air.

These army idiots actually captured their company commander.

This is contempt for the Imperial Navy! This is a provocation!

Although the relationship between the Japanese Army and Navy was so bad that it was almost irreconcilable, they were constantly engaged in open and covert struggles.

However, open clashes have been extremely rare in the past.

At most, they'll just fire blanks.

A Marine raised his gun and fired a shot into the air.

The sudden gunshot shattered the silence of the night, and in an instant, all the Marines quickly raised their guns.

The dark muzzles of guns were all pointed at the group of army military police, their eyes filled with vigilance and hostility.

“Rebels, release our company commander and surrender immediately, or we will open fire.”

A Marine Corps officer shouted, immediately labeling the group of Army military police as "rebels," attempting to gain the upper hand in terms of public opinion and momentum.

This is also an attempt to shift the blame.

If things really escalate, they are also in the right.

It must be said that in this critical moment, their ability to distort the truth and smear others was fully demonstrated.

The Marines quickly dispersed and soon surrounded the group of Army military police, forming a loose encirclement.

Despite being outnumbered, the army military police surrounded in the middle were not intimidated in terms of morale.

They gripped their guns tightly, the barrels trembling slightly from the force, the dark muzzles steadily aimed at the Marines opposite them.

However, the two sides remained deadlocked, neither daring to fire the first shot.

The air was thick with tension, almost to the point of freezing, and every soldier could clearly hear their own heart pounding.

For the Marines, although they had the advantage of encirclement, they also knew that once they opened fire, it would inevitably trigger an uncontrollable internal conflict.

Therefore, despite the tense standoff between the two sides, they could only maintain this fragile balance.

“We are on a mission. If you obstruct us from performing our duties, you’ll be sorry.”

"Official business? What official business could you possibly have? Your most important official business today is to get beaten up."

"Take their guns off!"

Although Su Mingzhe was being held by two army military police officers, it did not prevent him from issuing orders.

Seeing that the two sides were deadlocked, he fanned the flames from the sidelines.

Making a big fuss about it will definitely not do him any good. If the military court investigates, Su Mingzhe will be in serious trouble.

The current conflict situation is just right; General Hasegawa can resolve it for him.

Upon hearing the order, the naval soldiers rushed forward, seized the weapons of the army military police, and forcibly disarmed them.

With minimal effort, Su Mingzhe dealt with over a hundred fresh troops, causing considerable chaos and buying Shen Bei and his team a significant amount of time.

Su Mingzhe's side had an absolute numerical advantage, a dark mass surrounding the group of army soldiers.

No one dared to pull the trigger easily, for fear of triggering an uncontrollable melee.

After a brief stalemate, the army soldiers realized that the situation was hopeless and had no choice but to give up resistance, and they were all disarmed.

"Take these rebels back to headquarters and await General Hase's decision."

Su Mingzhe gave the order loudly, his voice carrying an unquestionable authority.

"Hayi!"

The surrounding naval soldiers echoed in unison and then began to drive the group of prisoners away, their actions rough and somewhat smug.

A bunch of army idiots, do they even deserve to be compared to our noble navy?

You deserved to arrest our company commander!

This is what the vast majority of people think.

Then, Su Mingzhe, head held high, strode towards the Navy Headquarters with his large amount of "spoils of war."

Throughout the journey, he kept thinking about how to write a report on the incident.

He naturally didn't mention a word about his actions in provoking the army.

In his view, only the parties involved know the truth of the matter, and now that he has the power of discourse, he can say whatever he wants.

He then fabricated a heroic story, portraying himself as a brave and fearless warrior who stood up during a fierce conflict between the navy and the army.

He didn't care at all about the testimonies that the army soldiers might provide.

How could the noble navy possibly listen to the words of those "rebels"? And what credibility do their words have?

And so, Su Mingzhe led this group of army soldiers and swaggered into the Songhu Marine Corps headquarters.

The journey was surprisingly smooth; they encountered neither any so-called "resistance elements" nor any army soldiers who came to stop them.

The guards on duty were stunned when they saw Su Mingzhe's appearance from afar.

They stared wide-eyed at Su Mingzhe, their faces filled with astonishment.

What are you doing there?

How come they brought back so many army soldiers, and they look like prisoners?

The guards on duty immediately recognized the uniforms of the army soldiers. After a brief moment of astonishment, they felt a surge of inexplicable joy and satisfaction.

After all, in the long-standing rivalry between the navy and the army, seeing the army suffer a setback is something that ordinary navy soldiers can secretly rejoice over.

The sound of a radio can be heard continuously coming from a clean little house.

"Dudududu..."

With the final key press, Shen Bei and the others finally finished sending their telegrams.

Fortunately, they escaped unharmed and finally completed this great mission.

Now that martial law has been imposed outside, it is absolutely impossible to leave with the radio.

So, without prior arrangement, the group pulled out hand grenades, connected them to the radio, and turned them into booby traps.

Tomorrow, we'll give the Japanese invaders a good thud.
