    It was not only Yu Xiaocheng who was concerned about the whereabouts of Nogi Nogi, but also Kawasaki Shiki. He stood on the front deck of the Songdao and looked towards Tainan Port. At this moment, Tainan Port was still shrouded in misty smoke, although the battle in Tainan had ended.  It took two or three days, but sporadic gunshots could still be heard in the city, and some dying Japanese troops still huddled in the corners of Tainan City and resisted.

    The Songdao fired one shot at a time into Tainan Harbor, and did not dare to get too close, because the forts on the hilltops counterattacked equally fiercely and sharply. Several transport ships tried to go to the shore to reinforce troops, but they were all sunk by coastal defense artillery.  In the sea, the transport ships that luckily landed were often besieged by the Red Label Army. Almost all the Japanese troops who landed on the beach were completely lost.  .

    "Where is this bastard Nogi now?" Kaguyama Shiki roared through gritted teeth, "I want to kill this bastard of the Choshu Domain. I will entrust the Second Division to him, not to let him be a coward."  Where has gone the determination to "swear to the emperor's death"? Lost Tainan, lost Changhua, does this bastard still want to repeat the shame of having the military flag taken away? Doesn't the samurai have the consciousness? The Orochi Army is a mere ragtag group of more than a thousand people.  His tens of thousands of regular troops could not be eliminated, and now they are being beaten and fleeing in all directions, which has completely disgraced the face of our Imperial Japanese Army. If this bastard still knew himself, he should have had a caesarean section to apologize by now!"

    Standing behind him, Togo Heihachiro did not dare to say a word. He held up his telescope and silently looked at Tainan Port, which was bombarded by naval guns and filled with smoke. Now all their anger can only be poured out in this way, but inside the port  But the coastal defense artillery was not a vegetarian. It fired from a distance, and the Akitsusu in front was almost hit on the port side.

    "Prince Fushimiyama has successfully evacuated from Taichung Port and boarded the Chiyoda!" An adjutant hurried to the front deck, walked behind the two of them, saluted Kawasaki Shiki, and whispered, "Chiyoda  Captain Masatoshi Uchida, please tell me how to deal with it?"

    Huashan Shiji turned his head, glared at the adjutant fiercely, and said sternly: "Butt it up, lock it up first, and let those old guys from the base camp handle it by themselves! His Majesty the Emperor's face has been completely embarrassed by him.  The elite of a brigade cannot even defeat those peasant soldiers in Taiwan. It is an insult to the imperial authority! These horse dung in the army are worse than the last. They can't do anything except run away. We expect them to destroy the China Army.  It¡¯s just exalting them!¡±

    Togo Heihachiro, who had been silent all this time, finally gathered up enough courage and suddenly said: "Your Majesty the Governor, all I need is an order from you. All members of our naval task force and the Marine Corps are willing to go through fire and water and fight to the death to recapture Tainan City!"

    Hua Shanzhi heard it, his face could not help but change, turned around, staring at the 47 -year -old Lieutenant General who was entering the middle -aged navy, suddenly raised his arms, and "crackling" dumped him a dozen big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big.  He slapped him in the face until his mouth was full of blood, then he stopped and shouted loudly: "Hagagaru! Togo-kun, do you know what you are talking about? Our navy team is so precious. Even if they die in battle, they still have to fight."  The sacrifices must be valuable and meaningful, instead of just sending them to their deaths indiscriminately! The Army's horse dung has landed so many divisions and brigades, and the supplies they have transported are piled up, but they have all been given to the Chinese. What else can you expect?  What can we do with less than one marine wing?"

    "So what if you land at Tainan Port? Without the support of idiots like the Marines, do the Marines really want to be used like the Marines? Don't forget the purpose of our Marine Corps! Ground combat is the main task of the Marines, and there are also  Form a joint operation with the navy. Only in many difficult-to-coordinate situations when it is necessary for the navy to complete its mission and wait for the arrival of the army, can the navy go to war!"

    "Now that the bastard army has been completely defeated by the Chinese, do you still want this shame and humiliation to happen to your navy? If our navy wants to fight, we must win the war, instead of casually sacrificing them for the sake of our own whim! Togo-kun, next time  If you make such remarks again, I will remove you from your position as commander of the combined fleet!"

    Togo Heihachiro put his feet together heavily, lowered his head, and bowed: "Hi!"

    Huashan Ziji raised his telescope and took one last look at Tainan. With tears in his eyes, he choked for a long time and said: "Order all fleets to turn around and return to Penghu!"

    Togo Heihachiro saluted with a standard military salute and said loudly: "I obey!"

    ¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù

    Nogi Nogi did not expect that the collapse of the Second Division would come so suddenly and quickly. He even had no time to do anything, so he watched the troops retreat one after another.

    The Second Division, which already had an overwhelming advantage under Yunlin City, only needed half a day, or even less than half a day, to wipe out all the guards in Yunlin City. Even with artillery bombardment,  Moving the whole city to the ground, but even this half-day has become an unattainable luxury. The fall of Chiayi City can still give him peace.He kept calm and continued to attack Yunlin City, but the loss of Tainan was the straw that broke the camel's back. The morale and spirit of the entire army suddenly fell to the bottom. No matter how hard he personally supervised the battle on the front line,  He even did not hesitate to shoot a few lieutenants and junior officers who had retreated from the battle, but in the face of the avalanche of war situation, no matter how hard he tried, he could not reverse the trend of decline.

    When the Guards in Yunlin City made a small counterattack, they actually beat the three squadrons in the south of the city to pieces. At least two squadrons were disabled. The Japanese troops remaining in the city were completely divided and surrounded by the Guards.  On the streets, no joint force could be formed at all, and the Japanese troops outside the city were no longer interested in fighting. Several brigades requested to quickly return south and retake Chiayi City, but he rejected them one by one and ordered the troops to continue to attack Yunlin. But at this time, the third  The Second Division had no fighting spirit, and the morale of the entire army was low. A squadron that invaded the city was quickly beaten back, leaving behind more than a hundred corpses without any achievements. This made him almost crazy with anger.

    Fushimi Miyazada's fourth brigade was defeated at the gates of Nantou City and retreated all the way to Changhua. Even the news of Taichung reached Nogi Nogi at the gates of Yunlin City. He could no longer hold back and ordered the entire army to return to Chiayi, but  It was this decision that made the collapse of the Second Division an irreversible trend.

    Xiao Nai, who captured Chiayi, had no intention of attacking the rear wing of the Second Division northward. In order to gain a firm foothold and search for military supplies left behind by the Japanese army, basically all members of his Second Regiment were mobilized throughout the city.  Searching from house to house, he even felt that he was short of manpower and stretched. As a result, he expanded the **3rd Regiment, and the army under his command became unprecedentedly strong.

    Exactly as he expected, it didn't take long for Nogi Nogi's second division to move south to attack Chiayi City. However, he waited and recuperated his strength. He did not engage in a decisive battle with the Japanese army outside the city. Instead, he defended the city and continued to send more than ten troops.  A company-level invasion team attacked various units of the Second Division heading south, torturing the Japanese army to exhaustion and being unable to do anything.

    Nogi Nogi spent a day under Chiayi City without making any progress, and the number of deserters increased, and finally there was even a mutiny among the troops. One team after another began to evacuate the battlefield on their own and fled to the seaside. Along the way, they were constantly attacked by Xiao Nai.  The attack by the invading troops caused heavy losses, but this still did not prevent the Japanese army from completely fleeing.

    "Give it to me, give it to me!" Hidenori Nogi personally waved his command sword feverishly in front of the formation at the foot of Chiayi City, vigorously driving the soldiers to charge towards the city wall. He even chopped down the soldiers who were slow to react and moved slowly on the spot.  He fell to the ground, but the war weariness of the Japanese army had spread like a plague throughout the entire army. More and more soldiers chose to flee before the battle, and around him were laid layers of corpses of so-called deserters who were shot or hacked to death by him.  .

    Xiao Nai saw this scene with a telescope on the city tower and knew that the defeat of the 2nd Division was certain and that Nogi Nogi's situation was over. After ordering the artillery battery to carry out a covering bombardment at Nogi Nogi's forward position, he ordered the red troops in the city to  The Biao army launched a comprehensive attack on the Japanese army.

    When the crowd, as dense as the ocean, rushed out of the city with bayonets in hand and flooded the Japanese starting position like a tide in the blink of an eye, everyone knew that the Japanese army had completely failed in this battle.

    At first, the Japanese army could tenaciously resist the oncoming Red Label troops and fought with them with bayonets. However, as more and more Red Label troops joined the battle group, the Japanese army could no longer resist, no matter how the officers ordered them to hold on.  To prevent the whole army from retreating, even the supervising team chose to escape.

    Xiao Nai personally led the team out of the city and searched repeatedly on the Japanese army positions piled with corpses, but could not find the body of Nogi Nogi Nogi, and among the hundreds of Japanese prisoners of war, no Nogi Nogi Nogi was found. This made  He was extremely angry. In order to find the whereabouts of Nogi Nogi, he killed more than a hundred Japanese prisoners at one time. Finally, he got the news that Nogi Nogi had fled to Budai Port in the southwest of Chiayi City. He immediately ordered the Second Regiment of the Japanese Army to command its troops.  In Budai Port, following the defeated Japanese army, Nogi Nogi will be killed no matter where he escapes to the end of the world.

    Tainan has been captured by Yang Bin's troops, and now the only one left is Nogi Nogi Nogi. Whoever kills or captures Nogi Nogi Nogi will be the commander of the first division. Now that Tainan has been captured by Yang Bin, the commander of the Tainan Military Division  It is a certainty that the official hat will be put on his head. If the leader Nogi Nogi asks him to take it off again, then he will be the commander-in-chief of the Taiwan Military Region. This is unacceptable to both Li Nan and Xiao Nai.  This will mean that all the sacrifices and efforts they have made along the way are in vain.

    ¡° Capturing the leader of Nogi Xidian has become Xiao Nai¡¯s current highest goal. In order to pursue Nogi Xidian, he even personally led his army to kill Budai Port.

    But he was not the only one chasing after Nogi Nogi. Yang Bin, who heard the news in Tainan, immediately sent a team of troops to Budai Port, and even the detachment of the Second Detachment of the GuardsNot to be outdone, Lin Qingshu personally led his team to leave the city, setting off one step ahead of Yang Bin's troops.

    But just as several groups of people hurriedly marched towards Budai Port, a shocking news came from Budai Port. Nogi Nogi Nogi had been captured alive, and the unit that captured him alive was not the Red Label Army, but a team from Tainan.  The leader of the rebel army is none other than Lin Shaomao, a young friend of the deputy commander Wu Yipeng.

    This news is not good news for Xiao Nai, Lin Qingshu, or Yang Bin, but it is not too bad news either. After all, Nogi Nogi Nogi only fell into the hands of the rebels. Who will be the first to rush?  Arriving at Budai Port and taking over Nogi Nogi from Lin Shaomao, there was still hope of making achievements and getting promoted, so everyone hurried on even more crazily.

    But for Nogi Nogi, his end has been doomed on this day, and he will spend his last life in Budai Port.  [(m) No pop-up window reading]
