How many flags can Japanese infantry ignore, and what about caves?

Japanese infantry always ignore the first flag; each further flag still forces a retreat (three flags means two retreats, with casualties if blocked). On terrain or an obstacle that already ignores a flag they ignore the first two, and in a cave they ignore all flags. The ability applies to flags rolled in combat only.
