In the foreign public settlement in Tianjin City, as the commander of the garrison's infantry brigade, Major General Masami Kawabe, announced that he would send a large army to attack Tianjin City, the news quickly spread to the front pages of major newspapers. The entire foreign public settlement
The citizens were also excited. Everyone focused their attention on the worry and fear of the incoming Japanese army.
Although they were living in the foreign public concession, no one knew whether the incoming Japanese troops would also attack the foreign public concession once the war broke out.
In particular, those citizens who did not live in the foreign public concessions were increasingly worried about whether the garrison troops could hold on to Tianjin City and protect their safety.
Because the Japanese troops that attacked this time were too numerous, they had to worry and panic the citizens of the whole city.
"Hey! Do you think that once the Japanese troops attack Tianjin City, will they also attack the foreign public concession? I'm still worried! If these damn Japanese troops do this, I'm afraid we will also be in danger.
Yes, we are not foreigners after all!"
"No one knows this! We have to wait for the Japanese army to attack before we can know the result! Maybe by then our garrison here will be able to hold on here and repel these damn Japanese troops! Don't forget us
The garrison here is not comparable to the garrison that abandoned Beiping City. At least they dared to attack the Japanese troops garrisoned here at night, and they also achieved a certain victory!"
"That's right~! Even the foreign troops were all attracted to watch this war, especially those flying troops air raids and bombings of those damn Japanese airfields and troops. It was so explosive that it made people's hearts beat.
People clapped and praised me!"
"It's really a relief! Last night I witnessed with my own eyes the flying troops' night raids and bombings of these damn Japanese airfields! It was simply wonderful! We usually suffer from air raids and bombings by these damn Japanese aircraft groups, and it's completely
There was no way to fight back! There were also many unarmed innocent soldiers and civilians who were injured or killed by the Japanese planes, and even the houses they lived in were blown up! So yesterday I was finally able to see with my own eyes that these damn Japs were also subjected to air attacks.
The bombing resulted in heavy casualties, but I was so happy that I started dancing on the spot! The bombing was so relieved!"
"These bastard devils should have died long ago. They should have been blown up!"
"But now there are so many Japanese troops coming from the fallen side of Peiping, and we don't have flying troops to support the battle with reinforcements. I don't know what to do in the next battle! I don't want this place to fall to the Japanese army.
Under the iron heel! I heard that Yuanping City and Beiping City, which were occupied by the Japanese army, are in a very miserable situation now. They have been burned, killed, and looted by these bastards!"
"Yes! The refugees who escaped from there also said that those damn Japanese invaders were demons worse than beasts. They not only burned, killed and looted, but also dared to do any kind of bad things. So many innocent people were
I was tortured by them! And it was very miserable!"
"These damn Japanese invaders. I really hope that our city defense troops here can defeat them and save this place!"
"Hopefully! But I don't know why I don't have the confidence. Maybe it's because they have too few troops and no follow-up reinforcements, so I don't know if they can resist the incoming Japanese army with so many troops!"
"I'm afraid we will know about it soon. I heard that the Japanese army's large troops are marching very fast. They can all reach us in less than two days. Then we will know the outcome of our place!"
"Hiss! No way! Are these Japanese troops marching so fast?"
As more and more citizens continued to discuss the Japanese army, under the command of the brigade commander Major General Shozo Kawabe, they were marching towards them at the fastest speed.
Suddenly, these unarmed citizens became more and more frightened and started talking enthusiastically.
There are even citizens who want to flee Tianjin with their families immediately because they are afraid that the Japanese army will occupy this place.
Especially those citizens who had learned about the brutality of the Japanese army from the refugees, they acted decisively and left Tianjin with their families.
The high-level foreigners in the foreign public concession also held constant meetings to discuss what would happen once the large Japanese troops commanded by the brigade commander, Major General Shozo Kawabe, arrived in Tianjin.
Will it affect the security of their public concessions and how to deploy defensive operations?
As for foreign newspapers, they continue to report these news to make money.
In short, all of a sudden, the entire city of Tianjin was plunged into the clouds of war, and the atmosphere was very depressing.
