After learning the full details of the incident, the old devil Matsui Iwane let out another harrowing roar! He slammed his palm onto the table before him, causing the entire desk to tremble violently. The various commanders gathered at the headquarters stood shivering, not daring to lift their heads.
"Commander-in-Chief! This Takatani Naojiro is an absolute disgrace to the Empire! That was a force of two thousand men—what kind of incompetent trash would allow so many deaths? This is a humiliation to our Empire! The greatest humiliation! We must eradicate that Chinese unit! We must restore honor to the Empire!"
As the supreme commander, Matsui Iwane’s fury made everyone in the room tremble. Among them were arrogant Japanese sergeants and staff officers who, at that moment, felt nothing but resentment toward Takatani Naojiro.
