    Nanjing. Central China Front Army Headquarters.

    "Snapped!"

    A delicate tea cup was thrown to the ground, making a crisp and 'tragic' sound, and became the victim of Yan Junliu's anger.

    "Baga, is this the result of your battle these days? More than 23,000 people were annihilated, more than 4,000 were injured, and there were only 10,000 fighting soldiers left in the 40,000-strong army! Shame, the unprecedented shame of the imperial army.  !" The voice of Sixth General Yan Jun was rapid and sharp, and it was obvious that he was really angry this time.

    Like most Japanese soldiers of this era, General Hata Junroku was short, thin and looked like a sick man.  In addition, he was very angry at this time, and his whole chest rose and fell when he was angry. People couldn't help but worry about whether he would faint.

    Of course, those who are familiar with this Excellency know that His Excellency Yan Junliu was not born like this. If it were not for the Russo-Japanese War, he should have been a very strong soldier.

    Your Excellency, a general before the age of 25, was as strong as an ox and loved sports.  However, during the Russo-Japanese War, while serving in the Third Army of General Nogi Nogi, Shunroku Hata was shot through the lungs by a Russian bullet during the attack on Jiguanshan outside Lushun.  Since then, his body has been getting thinner and thinner, so much so that people who don't know him think he is a drug addict.

    Of course, this injury also earned him the first medal in his military career, the fifth-level Golden Horse Medal, which laid the foundation for his future success.

    "Your Excellency, please calm down. At this time, I and Tanaka-kun both have unshirkable responsibilities. Please punish me, Commander!" Chief of Staff Kawabe Masami said in a deep voice.

    "Baga, with so many casualties, do you think you, a small major general and chief of staff, can bear this responsibility?" Yan Junliu said angrily.

    Kawabe Shozo stopped talking now. He knew that what the Commander said was true. When such a big thing happened, both the base camp and His Majesty the Emperor must be furious. He was really not just a small Major General like him.  Can bear it.

    This attack on Bengbu was the first battle after Yan Junliu took office. Yan Junliu was very concerned about this. In order to strengthen the military strength in the direction of Bengbu, he specially transferred the 101st Division of Southern Jiangsu to the Bengbu front line.

    The result was a huge disappointment for Yan Junliu. In just a few days, the imperial army on the Bengbu frontline suffered an unprecedented defeat. The 101st Division was almost wiped out. Even the division commander Yin Dongzhengxi was killed in Baima Gang.  , the entire division had less than 2,000 troops left.

    The 13th Division also suffered heavy losses. The 104th Regiment was completely wiped out. Regiment Captain Akiyama Torajiro Yusuihechi Town, and the two main brigades also suffered heavy losses.

    More importantly, in order to support the battle on the Bengbu front line, the Front Army Aviation Corps lost one-fifth of its fighter aircraft. It lost 56 pilots alone and hundreds of other auxiliary combat personnel. Such heavy losses can be said to be the highest since the war began.  Never before.

    "Your Excellency, there are three main reasons why the losses in this battle were so heavy!"

    Having said this, Kawabe Shozo did not continue, but looked at Yan Junliu. He wanted to see if the commander was willing to listen to his explanation.

    "Keep talking!" Obviously Yan Junliu also wanted to figure out why this battle resulted in such heavy losses.

    "First of all, we underestimated the strength of the army. Although the army did only have five divisions on the Bengbu front line, those divisions were the elite of the army, both in terms of weapons and equipment and fighting will.  Or maybe the quality of the soldiers is the best in the army, but the imperial army treats them as the most ordinary no-name army, and it is inevitable to suffer a loss!"

    Then Kawabe Shozo continued: "Secondly, the internal command level of the Imperial Army is not united, so that the orders of the headquarters cannot be implemented 100%"

    Before he finished speaking, Sixth General Yan Jun said angrily: "What is going on? Why does this happen?"

    "It is the commander of the 101st Division, His Excellency Yin Dongzhengxi, who disagrees with Tanaka-kun's order. According to Tanaka-kun, the imperial army on the front line must use all its strength to deal with the troops on the Bengbu front line. There is no need to divide the troops to attack Quanjiao. However,  However, Yin Dongjun believed that dividing the troops would help protect the security of the left side of the imperial army, so regardless of Tanaka Jun's obstruction, he attacked from the west of the command post and attacked Quanjiao, so that the imperial army's strength was dispersed and gave an opportunity to one/that army to take advantage of, and was eventually defeated by various  Defeat it!" Zhengsan said by the river.

    From Kawabe Shozo¡¯s words, Yan Junliu could tell that he placed the main responsibility for the failure of this battle on Yin Dongzhengxi.

    This is what Kawabe Shozo thinks. Although he agreed when he proposed to divide his troops to attack Quanjiao, the commander has made it very clear just now that he, a small major general and chief of staff, simply cannot bear the big attack.The anger of this camp and His Majesty the Emperor cannot bear the responsibility for the failure of this battle. In this case, he cannot be brave.

    It just so happened that Yin Dongzhengxi, a dead ghost, was very active in dividing the troops, which eventually harmed the imperial army on the front line and his own life. Therefore, Kawabe Masami decided to use the waste and let him bear the main responsibility for the defeat.

    Since the person is dead anyway, it can be said that there is no evidence of his death. As long as he communicates well with Tanaka Shizuichi, the matter will not be exposed.

    Yan Junliu frowned and said immediately: "Keep talking!"

    "Secondly, it is the responsibility of the intelligence department. Due to the inaction of the intelligence department, we did not even know that this army was equipped with many powerful new weapons. For this reason, the imperial army on the front line suffered a big loss!" Kawabe Masami once again  said.

    "Nani? New weapon?" Yan Junliu asked with a frown.

    "Yes, Your Excellency, according to the report of the troops withdrawn from the front line, the army used a terrifyingly powerful new weapon on the Bengbu battlefield. This weapon is a bit like an anti-aircraft machine gun, but it is much more powerful than an anti-aircraft machine gun. It is said that this  This kind of firearm is like a gun and cannon, and its power is terrifying. It can not only attack aviation but also armored troops. The Imperial Army lost so many fighter planes and almost all of its armored troops in this battle were all made of that new type of weapon!"

    Then Kawabe Shozo continued: "But before this, the Imperial Army did not receive any news, so that after entering the battlefield, they were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses. Therefore, the intelligence department must also bear the responsibility for the defeat of this battle.  A certain responsibility!¡±

    In fact, Yan Junliu heard this matter reported by the person in charge of the Aviation Corps yesterday, but he did not take it seriously and thought it was the Aviation Corps making excuses for their failure.

    Now it seems that this is not the case at all. All of this is actually true. This army is actually equipped with a new type of weapon that they don't know about.

    "It's all rubbish. There's no news about such important information. Those guys from the intelligence department should be sent to a military court!"

    With his anger still lingering, Yan Junliu reached out his hand to the table and was about to take a sip of water, but he missed it and remembered that the teacup had been sacrificed.

    "If this is the case, you and Tanaka are not responsible for the failure of that battle, but you have to understand that if the truth of the matter is not like this, you know the consequences!" Yan Junliu said in a cold tone.

    "Please rest assured, everything I said is true!"

    "That's the best! But now the imperial army has suffered heavy losses and has lost the ability to attack. It still has to deal with the sudden attack from the south to attack Chu County. Chu County must be reinforced!" Yan Junliu said.

    "Your Excellency, there is actually no need to worry. Although the Imperial Army suffered heavy losses in this battle, this/that army also suffered heavy losses. The 131st Division, 135th Division and 188th Division of the 31st Army all suffered heavy losses, especially the 135th Division.  Division and the 188th Division, the combined total may not be enough for 5,000 people."

    Then Kawabe Shozo continued: "The 38th Division also suffered heavy losses. Only Li Guoyao's 7th Division still maintained a certain amount of fighting, but the 7th Division was the main force in annihilating the 101st Division. Presumably the losses will not be small. Without  Until they are supplemented by the support from the support government, the support force on the Bengbu front line is nothing to fear."

    "Well, there is a certain truth, but just in case, we still need to support Chu County. Let's do this. Send a regiment from the Sixth Division out of He County, advance into Quanjiao, threaten the flanks of the Seventh Division, and at the same time order  The imperial army in Chu County should seize the time to rest!" Yan Junliu said.

    "Hai!"

    "We will ask the base camp for additional troops, and we must seize the time to mobilize troops. We must capture Bengbu!"

    "Hai!"
