After two months of heavy fighting in and around Shanghai, the Chinese Army was forced to retreat to the south bank of Suzhou Creek. Covering the retreat was the 524th Regiment of the Chinese 88th Division led by Lt.-Col. Hsieh Chin-yuan. The regiment held its positions around the Four-Bank Warehouse -- a reinforced-concrete warehouse owned by four commercial banks. In the middle of the burning Zhabei district, soldiers of the 524th prepared to write their own heroic destiny as thy faced the advancing Japanese Shanghai Expeditionary Army.

I am sure without the balance the Japanese would not get the win. Went down to the very last CCPh.

Surprisingly close after some good and bad luck for the Japanese force, especially a banzai charge half-way through the game that got mulched by the valiant chinese defenders. Multiple GUSTS allowed for Blazes to thrive, and collapse a few locations, though the Blazes were poorly placed to begin with. By the end of the Game, through very fast play and poor choices, the Japanese managed entry into the Factory despite the chances, but ultimately the final Fortified Location made it impossible for the Japanese forces to enter. I think the Japanese should get the balance, especially seeing the records on the right.

Protect the flanks, start some fires, and stock the factory makes for a tough attack even for banzaiing Japanese.
