The foreign troops in the concession area,

"It was in the Zhabei area in front of the Sihang Warehouse. There were explosions and gunshots!"

"There was a lot of gunfire, and it was very close to the Suzhou River on our side of the concession!"

Steve, the foreign second lieutenant officer who was one of the leaders, pointed in the direction of Sihang Warehouse with a serious look on his face and shouted in a fuss.

"Go and dispatch some of our armored convoys, just in case!"

"What's the situation over there now?"

"Are the Japanese and Chinese armies fighting?"

As soon as officer Steve finished speaking, another British officer, Captain Joseph, responded immediately.

At this moment, the British troops stationed in Shanghai included the 2nd Battalion Royal Welch Fusiliers, the 2nd Battalion Royal North Lancastershire Infantry, the 1st Royal Worcester Rifles Battalion, and the 1st Denham Light Infantry Battalion.

The two British officers who were speaking were officers from the 2nd Royal Welch Fusiliers Battalion.

"I don't know! But haven't those Chinese troops been beaten away by the Japanese army?"

"Aren't they evacuating to their capital and the areas west of Suzhou and Jiaxing?"

"How come there are still troops left in the occupied Zhabei area to fight the Japanese in the Suzhou River area?"

"They won't be looking for death like this!"

"Now that the Japanese army's reinforcements have landed in full force, if they haven't escaped yet, are they going to wait for the Japanese army to make dumplings for them and annihilate them all?"

Steve, the foreign second lieutenant officer, shook his head and expressed that he was very confused.

"Since we don't know what happened yet, let's get them over immediately, the 2nd Battalion, Royal North Lancastershire Infantry, the 1st Royal Worcester Rifles Battalion, and the 1st Denham Light Infantry Battalion.

Garrison it!"

"In addition, notify the Fourth Marine Regiment and the Sixth Marine Regiment of the US Army to also send troops to assist in the garrison!"

"The French army and other troops should also notify us, and our embassy also needs to be notified! Let them notify Her Majesty the Queen, and our cabinet!"

Captain Joseph, a British officer, made a decisive decision.

"OK!"

"I will immediately send soldiers to notify them separately!"

Steve, the foreign second lieutenant officer, immediately nodded in agreement.

Then he immediately dispatched soldiers to act according to the instructions.

At the same time, they also led their company of foreign soldiers to gather at the border of the concession and build all defenses.

While these foreign troops were hurriedly preparing for battle, more and more curious people were gradually coming to watch at the borders of the concession.

They were also looking far away in front of Sihang Warehouse, watching and listening.

Although rows of houses blocked their view, they could not see what was happening in the Zhabei area on the other side of the Suzhou River and why there were constant sounds of gunfire.

But out of curiosity, they still tried hard to listen to the intermittent gunshots.

It's just that these whispers go away as quickly as they come.

After listening for less than ten minutes, everything stopped.

Then everything fell silent again.

As for the Sihang Warehouse at this moment, there were no unusual sounds, so the people who were waiting and watching the excitement at the concession boundary near the Suzhou River did not notice anything unusual at the Sihang Warehouse.
