White Leaf Tree Road, the headquarters of the Japanese Hasegawa Brigade.
"Captain!" A signalman walked in quickly and reported," The commander has ordered us to clear out the remaining Chinese soldiers in Sihang's warehouse as soon as possible to prepare for tomorrow's entrance ceremony.”
"Got it." Kawashiro said impatiently.
After sending away the signal soldier, Kawashiro turned his gaze to a senior captain in front of him.
"Fujii-kun!" Kawahiro said coldly," You heard the commander's order. No matter what, the entrance ceremony tomorrow must proceed as scheduled!”
"Ha Yi!" Fujii Shuichi nodded and said," Don't worry, captain. We'll definitely settle this before dawn!”
"Yuxi!" Kawahiro said," Then go and prepare. Before you attack, I will have the artillery squadron fire mustard gas bombs!”
"Ha Yi!"
……
East building of the four-row warehouse, Regiment 524's headquarters.
Xie Jin Yuan asked Qi Jia Ming,"Jia Ming, what's the matter?"”
"Guild Leader, it wasn't me." Qi Jiaming said," Old Zhu is looking for you."”
Xie Jin Yuan's gaze turned to Zhu Chen's face and asked,"Old Zhu, what is it?"
"Regiment Commander, the Japanese have suffered twice in a row. They definitely won't let this go."”
"Of course I know that." Xie Jin Yuan nodded," So we have to strengthen our defenses, especially the outer fortifications.”
Zhu Chen said," The walls of the four-row warehouse are sturdy. It's very difficult to attack from the front. I'm worried that the Japanese won't choose to attack from the front this time. Instead, they'll attack from behind."”
"Sneak attack?" Xie Jinyuan's expression froze and he said in a deep voice," Tell me more details.”
" Back then, when the salt industry, Jin City, and the other four banks built the four-row warehouses, they specially built a waterway that led directly to the interior of the warehouse for the convenience of water transportation. They even built a dock on the underground level!”
This was not a secret. Xie Jin Yuan naturally knew about it.
"So, you suspect that the Japanese army will sneak into the warehouse from Suzhou Creek through the sewer?”Xie Jin Yuan said in a deep voice.
Zhu Chenxin was not doubting, but rather certain. The Japanese army was going to launch an infiltration attack from the sewers, and they would catch your 524th Regiment off guard!
But he definitely couldn't say it out loud.
Zhu Chen then said,"It's better to be safe than sorry."”
"What you said makes sense." Xie Jinyuan said," Then blow up the dock and close the waterway!”
"Guild Leader!" Zhu Chen said anxiously," Why are you in such a hurry to blow up the dock and seal the waterway? Why didn't they use the waterway to give the Japanese a hard time?”
Xie Jin Yuan's expression changed.”
"Yes." Zhu Chen laughed sinisterly and said," Set up a net and wait!”
"Alright! Regardless of whether the Japanese came or not, it was worth tasting the poem.”Xie Jin Yuan said in a deep voice," Qiyue, inform Lei Xiong to let the machine gun company ambush around the underground dock in advance!”
"Also, increase the firepower at the south wall!”Zhu Chen added.
"Yes, sir!" The orderly, July, agreed and went downstairs to relay the order to the machine gun company.
Xie Jin Yuan turned his head to Zhu Chen and said,"Old Zhu, you take a platoon and ambush at the entrance of the waterway. When the devils enter the waterway, cut off their retreat!"”
"None of the devils who came in through the waterway can return alive!”
"I want to turn the underground sewer of the four-row warehouse into a huge tomb for the devils!”
"Yes, sir!" Zhu Chen agreed and said," Oh right, Regiment Commander, there's one more thing. I'm worried that the Japanese will launch a poison gas bomb from the front before launching a sneak attack to distract us.”
"Your worry is very reasonable." Xie Jin Yuan agreed and said," Jiaming, immediately inform all companies and platoons to prepare gas masks. Even if they don't have gas masks, they have to prepare wet towels.”
"Yes, sir!" Qi Jiaming and Zhu Chen nodded and turned to leave.
Looking at Zhu Chen's back, Xie Jin Yuan suddenly said,"Old Zhu, you've changed a lot. If we're still alive after this battle, why don't you come to the regimental headquarters and be my advisor?”
Zhu Chen turned around and happily said,""Thank you for your guidance, Guild Leader."
Coming out of the regiment headquarters, Qi Jiaming smiled and said,""Old Zhu, you're going to be rich."
"What's there to be rich about?" Zhu Chen said," It's better to get through this first.”
"That's true." Qi Jiaming's face darkened as he said," This is not going to be easy.”
On the way downstairs, the two of them passed by the room where the deserters were kept. Zhu Chen immediately turned in and pointed at Duan Wu and Yang Guai. He said in a deep voice,"The two of you, follow me, now!”
Duan Wu and Yang Guai got up and followed him without saying a word.
