Outside Ningyuan County, the Japs officers howled loudly. All the Japs once again launched a suicidal attack on the 1st Battalion of the 51st Army Garrison Regiment.
All the Japs had white cloth strips tied on their foreheads, with a plaster flag dyed with the Japs' blood.
They are working harder than anyone else at this time, because if they rush into Ningyuan County and capture the commander of the 51st Army alive, each of them will not only be promoted to the third level, but will also receive very generous rewards.
But if they can't do it, they will commit seppuku.
This order was given by Kitashirakawarai. Success means glory and wealth, while failure means death.
This seems fair, but it is also very helpless.
Because the Japanese charging at this moment had no choice at all.
They fought desperately with the Chinese army just to fight for the 10% hope of survival.
However, the first battalion of the garrison regiment also fought very tenaciously. Although they encountered an enemy surprise attack first and then two squadrons of Japanese soldiers continued to attack, they still defended outside Ningyuan County and engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese soldiers.
Kitashirakawa was very angry because his subordinates did not rush into Ningyuan County and see him with Commander Yu's head as he expected.
"Senior, we can no longer divide our forces."
"Baga, these idiots are all dead, but they didn't even attack a small Ningyuan County. The commander of the 51st Army must have escaped."
But how to put it euphemistically? It means that Sang scolded Huai, after flattering Prince Beibai's wise leadership, he then said that the responsibility this time was all the fault of subordinate officers and failed to understand the spirit of Prince Beibai.
So, when you reach this stage of your life, you no longer have any interest in anything.
The only thing that could interest him at this time was the Dragon Boat Festival, otherwise he would not let go of being a good prince and seek bad luck on the Dragon Boat Festival.
The Japanese were unable to attack any more, and at this time, even Matsui Iwane, the commander of the Shanghai Expeditionary Force, was cursing.
But if a lone army like him is allowed to continue in Bengbu without reinforcements, it will be unless Bei Baichuan is stupid and no longer wants to live.
Because he has played until he no longer has any novelty towards women.
At this moment, Taro Aso quickly stopped him.
And with his current status, would he want to die?
No, he would not think about his own death. He was in a high position, well-dressed and well-fed. There were so many women around him that he felt like vomiting. This was also the reason why, after he arrived in China, there were no more women around him.
Kitashirakawa looked at Taro Aso displeased, and Taro Aso said bravely: "Senior, we don't have many troops. If we divide our troops to chase the enemy's headquarters at this time, there will be fewer people left to break through. And in
Our front will be at the intersection of the 113th Division and the 114th Division. To get out from here, we need a lot of troops. Please consider my suggestion, senior."
At this moment, his secretary gave him an idea to report the reason for the defeat to the headquarters in a tactful manner.
But the soldiers must stay here because there are still people in the city who have not evacuated.
Matsui Iwane thought: Why don't you die in Bengbu?
Of course, if Kitashirakawa Xi really died in Bengbu, I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to explain.
"Baga, it's really annoying."
However, the Japanese 39th Regiment and 40th Regiment also launched a fierce attack at this time, forcibly opening an escape channel for Kitashirakawarai.
Kitashirakawa said without even thinking: "We can't let him run away, let me chase him. There are so many people in their organization, they can't run that fast."
So at this time, Prince Beibai failed to get what he wanted and became more and more anxious and irritable.
In the end, Kitashirakawa Ai fled with less than one brigade of troops, and all Japanese troops on the southern front also withdrew from the battle at this time.
Beibaichuan had no choice but to order the entire army to break out of Ningyuan County from the front.
He also wondered what kind of clever tricks the Prince of Beibai would have if he was so steadfast in his oath. In the end, he just went to give away his head and then fled back in despair.
This kind of iron bastard can be said to be invincible on China's battlefield. Because there are few weapons in the Chinese army that can deal with its hard shell.
Of course, compared with his life, he could only swallow this breath. What's more, his scouts reported through the radio that a large number of Chinese troops were pursuing Ningyuan County.
What is the most disturbing thing that makes a man restless and sleepless at night? It is asking for something and not getting it.
Kitashirakawa was still very angry because he had lost so many imperial troops in this battle, yet he had gained nothing and had to use all his strength to break out.
Commander Yu learned about the Japanese's intention at the temporary headquarters and ordered the 113th and 114th Divisions to block them.
Therefore, he hated Kitashirakawa, not only looking forward to his death, but also fearing that he would really die.
Kitashirakawa suddenly went deep into the hinterland, and he did not go alone. That was because of the cooperation of the 10th Division and the 114th Division.
The two sides fought fiercely for more than 30 minutes. After all the soldiers from the first battalion fought off the Japanese who rushed into the position, there was only less than one platoon left.
They picked up the weapons of their comrades and retreated to the north wall of Ningyuan County. In front of them was a dense Japanese convoy and two Vickers M25 armored vehicles.
Kitashirakawa Aoi was sitting on the Vickers M25 armored vehicle, looking out with a telescope from the observation hole of the tank.
If it is something that can be obtained easily, let alone the Prince of Beibai, it will be the same even if it is another man.
Kitashirakawa was so filled with hatred that he almost broke his steel teeth. But he had to consider his own safety.
The Japanese army was defeated and returned with a great defeat. From east to west, at least four Japanese regiments died in battle on the Mingguang, Ningyuan, and Changfeng lines.
At this time, Taro Aso had just listened to the report from the Japanese communications officer. He quickly reported: "Senior, I just received news that the headquarters of the 51st Army has moved in the direction of the 113th Division."
However, anyone who reads such a report will know what is going on. The reason for the defeat is because of the wise leadership and wisdom of Kitashirakawa Aoi.
So Kitashirakawa received the most severe rebuke from the local royal family, telling him to go back to his hometown immediately and stop causing trouble on the front line.
Kitashirakawa apologized hurriedly, but said that this matter was not a problem with his command, but that Dragon Boat Festival was too cunning. And he once again clarified that when the imperial army fought against Dragon Boat Festival before, the losses were greater than this time.
Duo. That Dragon Boat Festival is the empire’s number one enemy.
The royal family has received such reports before, and it is true that the Dragon Boat Festival caused great obstacles to the advancement of the empire.
So the tone of the royal family softened a lot, allowing Kitashirakawa to clear his name and perform meritorious service, but deprived him of the power to command the troops, and asked him to return to Shanghai and stop going to the front line. If a prince died on the battlefield in China, then you can imagine
Let’s take a look, how will international public opinion evaluate it?
Moreover, the news of the disastrous failure of this offensive must also be blocked, and absolutely no opportunity should be given to any Western media!
