The Dragon Boat Festival was late, and Kitashirakawa stood in the office anxiously for more than an hour.
Ordinary people would circle around the office when they were anxious, but Kitashirakawa was different. He thought he was not an ordinary person, so when he was anxious, he stood at the window and looked out.
But there is nothing to see outside. Apart from the towns destroyed by the Japanese and the ruins still burning with embers, there will be no scenery to see.
Taro Aso naturally knew Kitashirakawa's habit of bathing. He remembered that the last time Kitashirakawa stood in front of the window like this, it was because he wanted to kill his elder brother.
There is only one crown. If his eldest brother does not die, how can he wear this crown on his head?
Therefore, Aso Taro knew that Kitashirakawa was anxious, and he did not want to disturb him at this time. Because at this time, Kitashirakawa was most easily irritated.
At this moment, a Japanese communications soldier stood at the door of the office. He was about to shout a report, but was stopped by Taro Aso. He signaled the other party to stop talking, pulled him outside the door, and then said: "Where is the report?"
The signal soldier replied: "This is the call from the 10th Division, asking His Excellency the Prince whether the 33rd Brigade can move?"
Taro Aso secretly exclaimed that it was a good thing. Kitashirakawa was in a state of anxiety. What if such an innocuous message disturbed him? The powder keg was suddenly ignited.
He said angrily: "Go and tell them that when the battle will begin, His Excellency the Prince will personally give the order. Don't send such inquiries."
"Hi!"
The Japanese communications soldier bowed slightly and then retreated.
But as soon as this Japanese communications soldier left, another communications soldier came running over again.
Taro Aso said impatiently: "What happened this time?"
The communications soldier quickly reported: "Dragon Boat Festival's troops have appeared under the east city."
"Very good!"
Taro Aso was overjoyed and hurriedly walked into the office.
But at this time, Kitashirakawa had already heard it. He finally smiled and picked up the sword on the knife rest.
This sword was exclusively used by the prince. Not only was it extremely sharp, but the entire handle was inlaid with jade.
This is a status symbol. Kitashirakawa will carry this sword wherever he goes.
At this time, Aso Taro quickly took the coat that Kitashirakawa had washed from the hanger and put it on Kitashirakawa.
Kitashirakawa said: "Let's go, Aso, let's go to the city wall to see that Chinese lunatic. I want to see how crazy he will be this time."
Taro Aso smiled apologetically and said: "Your Excellency, I believe that this time, the Dragon Boat Festival will not go crazy because our Bengbu is impregnable."
"Hahaha!"
Kitashirakawa laughed heartily, left the office, and ran towards the east wall.
At this time, Taro Aso grabbed his coat and followed closely, while the guards of Kitashirakawarai divided into two groups to clear the way.
The Japanese guards along the way bowed and saluted one after another, not even daring to look at Kitashirakawa's washed face.
Because everyone knows that this is a man more terrifying than the devil.
And it also began to spread among the military, wondering whether the Prince of Beibai had been abused as a child and became so crazy.
Of course, Kitashirakawarai naturally didn't know about this kind of thing, because no one dared to let him know.
Kitashirakawa came to the city wall, but he did not see the battle scene he expected. The Chinese charged like fools, and then fell one by one in front of the position, with corpses piled up like hills.
What he saw was that five hundred meters away from the position in the east of the city, Chinese soldiers were grilling wild boars, rabbits, pheasants, etc. over a fire.
"Baga, what are the Chinese doing? Don't they say the Dragon Boat Festival is coming?"
Kitashirakawa was very surprised, but at this moment, Ito on the side bowed and said: "Your Excellency, when the Chinese arrived at the city, they began to chop wood and hunt game for barbecue.
Our investigation found that they shot two wild boars, eight rabbits, and more than 30 pheasants. We don’t know why there are so many pheasants around here. In our Empire of Japan, such pheasants are rare.”
"Baga, is it time to discuss food now?"
Kitashirakawa said angrily, while Ito quickly bowed.
Kitashirakawa asked Aso Taro who was standing aside: "Aso, what do you think the Dragon Boat Festival is doing?"
Taro Aso took a telescope and looked at it and said: "Senior, in my opinion, that Dragon Boat Festival must have run out of skills. Seeing that our city defense was impregnable, he did not dare to attack by force, so he deliberately exposed flaws to lure us out of the city. And all his ambush troops were killed.
He is lying in wait in the nearby woods, and once we leave the city, we will fall into his trap."
Kitashirakawa nodded and said: "This is like the fighting style of the Dragon Boat Festival. But not only can we not fall into the trap, but we also have to force him to fight us. I have studied the tactics of the Dragon Boat Festival. He rarely attacks head-on and uses insidious tricks.
Deceive our imperial army and let them step into the trap he designed in advance.
Ito, go and escort those Chinese people over. I will use the method of executing Chinese people to force Duanwu to fight us head-on. Hahaha!"
Kitashirakawa smiled evilly, because he had already found the weakness of Dragon Boat Festival. He remembered that the imperial army had used such a strategy when they were at Shama Restaurant. Dragon Boat Festival went out of the city to meet the enemy by himself, and he was just a little bit short of dying.
In the hands of the imperial army.
But it was a pity that the imperial army failed and only injured the Dragon Boat Festival.
But it's different now, because there is no word failure in Kitashirakawa's dictionary.
But at this time, Ito was in a difficult situation because all the people in the city were killed to improve their morale.
But Ito couldn't tell, so he asked his subordinates on the side: "Are there any Chinese people in the city? How many?"
Ito's adjutant lowered his voice and said: "Your Excellency, we have all been killed, and there will be no more alive."
"What are you muttering about?"
Kitashirakawa heard the conversation between the two, but did not hear clearly what the other party said. Moreover, Ito dared not carry out his order, which made him very angry.
At this time, Ito quickly stepped forward and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, sir. In order to improve the morale of the imperial army, I killed all those Chinese people."
"idiot,"
At this moment, Kitashirakawa was about to scold him, but suddenly he thought of something. He had given this order himself. Ito didn't say it directly, because he was obviously very good at doing things.
Bei Baichuan held it in for a long time, and then he laughed awkwardly and said: "Hahaha, I don't blame you, I was too impulsive at the time. But you still have to carry out my order. Go! Look again, in such a big city,
There must be others who have slipped through the net, do you understand?"
