Danwu made fun of Kitashirakawa and still hasn't figured out where he went. But Kitashirakawa guessed it, but it was a little late.
Of course, Kitashirakawa is not to blame for this, but last night, after a long night of hard work, the little devils were very tired, and some even scolded, "Whoever provokes the Chinese again, I will send my regards to your whole family."
So it can be seen how tired the little devil is.
Therefore, except for the Japs' sentries who have been monitoring the main defense line, no Japs took the initiative to attack again.
As for the Japanese scouts, some of them had been killed by the Sichuan army. Only the Japanese scouts who were chasing Lao Baanpan sent a report in the early morning.
But it was an ordinary tracking report. The Japanese communications soldiers saw that the superiors were all asleep, so they did not bother them with such a trivial matter.
So it was like this, until daybreak, when Yin Teng woke up and asked the communications officer if there was anything important. The communications officer said that except for the tracking and investigation reports sent back by the imperial army tracking Chinese wounded soldiers and the imperial army searching westward, there was no
Any exception.
Yin Teng was quite happy after hearing this. After all, nothing happened that night.
Just when he was about to rinse his mouth with the tea cup on the table, he suddenly thought of something. They still had scouts outside the city. Why didn't they even get a report after all night?
"Have any news come back from the scouts outside the city?"
Yin Teng asked, while the communications officer opened the folder and flipped through it carefully: "Sir, there are no records of scouts outside the city."
"Baga, what did you do? Why is no one paying attention to such an important position?"
Yin Teng was angry, but the communications officer was also aggrieved because there were too many things happened last night. The orders came one after another. Some were sent to various departments in Bengbu City, and some were sent to the 10th Division, the 9th Division, and the 114th Division.
And so on. In addition to receiving telegrams, how can the dozen or so people in the Communications Department be busy?
And Yin Teng didn't tell him to pay attention to the scouts outside the city?
However, since he was a junior official, he could only endure it and quickly bowed and said, "This is my mistake."
"Go and confirm."
Yin Teng waved his hand impatiently, and the communications officer bowed and retreated. Yin Teng thought for a while and ordered his adjutant to send scouts to investigate the enemy forces in the city.
It's just that this investigation doesn't matter, Yin Teng feels a chill on the back of his neck. Damn it, there is no sign of the Chinese army in Bengbu City for a long time, and the scouts he sent outside the city, including the imperial army tracking Chinese wounded soldiers,
There was no news from each of them.
But how could he dare to hide this matter? He could only bite the bullet and report it to Kitashirakawa.
As for the consequences, let's go. Yin Teng almost lost his head again. But if he hadn't knelt in front of Bei Baichuan Xi, slapped himself more than a hundred times, and was kicked by Bei Baichuan Xi, then he would have lost his head again.
In addition, Taro Aso kept saying good things to the side. I am afraid that even if his head can be saved, his eyes cannot be saved.
Kitashirakawa said that he was blind and deaf. This means that you don’t need your eyes and ears.
After hearing this, Yin Teng's legs went weak and he almost peed on the spot.
Later, Taro Aso said: Now is the time to employ people. Although Yin Teng-kun has made many mistakes, our opponent is the Dragon Boat Festival, so it is reasonable.
So just like that, Yin Teng's life and eyes were saved. He even obeyed Taro Aso's words.
Of course, the most important thing is Taro Aso, who has a new plan.
Taro Aso and Aoi Kitashirakawa said that they must have found a new target because Danwu disappeared overnight. As for who was so unlucky, there was no one else but the 10th Regiment.
Kitashirakawa Ai also felt that Aso Taro was right, so he sent a message to the 10th Regiment and told Akashiba Yaezo that the Dragon Boat Festival was most likely going in his direction.
】
But it was too late. Akashiba Yaezo received the telegram and ordered the troops to retreat. However, they were still beaten by Duanwu. At least half of the entire 10th Regiment was wiped out at Laoye Ridge.
Although his other two troops got rid of the 1st and 4th Battalions of the Independent Regiment, after a night of fierce fighting, they suffered serious attrition, losing nearly one-third of their troops.
The two brigades merged with an artillery squadron and occupied the No. 3 highland of Laoye Ridge to await the arrival of Akashiba Yaezo.
At this time, when Akashiba Yaezo saw that less than half of his entire infantry regiment was left, he felt like crying.
However, he did not dare to retreat without permission, so he sent a message to Kitashirakawa and requested to withdraw from the battle.
After Kitashirakawa read the telegram, he not only tore the telegram into pieces in anger, but also kicked his desk over.
Various documents and miscellaneous items were scattered all over the floor.
At this time, Kitashirakawarai's office was completely silent. Even Taro Aso was bowing and did not dare to raise his head.
Because it was obvious that the prince was angry again. And not just ordinary anger.
After a long while, the angry Kitashirakawa panted heavily and asked like a madman: "Why? Why are you all so stupid? How perfect is my plan? Why did I encounter a bunch of pigs like you? Don't you all
Are you a top student at the Imperial Army University? Did you learn in school to suffer defeat? Idiots! They are all idiots!"
"Hi!"
All the Japanese officers bowed together and responded, which almost angered Kitashirakawa to death. He felt that if these imperial officers in front of him were all pigs, it would definitely be an insult to pigs.
"Since you are all stupid enough to die, then I will allow you to commit seppuku, right? This is your honor. Be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor!"
Kitashirakawa was so angry that he was speechless and asked everyone in front of him to commit seppuku.
Of course, Kitashirakawa is not joking. In front of him, these Japanese officers are insignificant. If a group of them die, just recruit another group. Anyway, they are all so stupid. Maybe if I change a group, there will be smart ones.
"Senior! I have something to say."
At this time, Aso Taro had to speak, because he is probably the only one who knows Kitashirakawa Ai best here. If Kitashirakawa Ai thinks you are a useless person, then you should either die or get away from him.
Arrived, that's all.
So when Kitashirakawa said that a group of idiots could commit seppuku, he had guessed that he would be among them.
He didn't want to die, so he spoke at this time.
At this time, Kitashirakawa Ainori said coldly: "Aso-kun, I don't think people can be creative unless they are forced. I am very optimistic about you, so you will not disappoint me again."
Yes, right?"
Taro Aso quickly bowed and said: "Senior, if we fail again this time, without you having to say anything, I will commit seppuku to express my gratitude to the Emperor!..."
