Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    An urgent telegram from Lieutenant General Matsuda Kenjiro, Chief of Staff of the Kwantung Army, revealed the dangerous situation in which one of the three heavily armed groups of the Kwantung Army was wiped out by the independent division troops on the Northeast battlefield and two were surrounded, revealing that the Kwantung Army was about to be attacked.  The current situation of catastrophe, and a memorial from the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, General Yoshijiro Umezu, aroused the thunderous wrath of the Japanese Emperor Hirohito.

    After an intense and heated exchange of words, it was not easy for General Minai Mitsui. He knew His Majesty the Emperor very well. He was shrewd and intelligent, the Emperor's heart was unpredictable, and his control methods were extremely superb. In addition, he was naturally clever and a little nervous and a little nervous.  He is moody and sits high on the dragon throne. He has a clear understanding of the intrigues and struggles for power among the military and political leaders within the empire, but he does not stop them. Instead, he allows them to develop, but controls them within a certain range. He is a master who is not easy to deceive.  Son!

    Today's event was so big that it shook the foundation of the empire. It was so big that even the head of the most powerful person in the empire's military circles, the Minister of War and the Chief of General Staff of the base camp, was not enough to make up for the loss. Koichi Minai had to double his efforts.  Be careful, so after this performance, I was soaked in cold sweat, drained of my hard work, gutted and gutted, my spirit was in a state of high tension, and I was about to collapse.

    Seeing His Majesty the Emperor's expression relax, and the ferocious light in his eyes subside, Koichi Mineuchi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, if he asked himself, Koichi Mineuchi didn't feel that he was deceiving His Majesty the Emperor, nor did he feel sorry for the Empire of Japan, the source of everything.  , all from this bastard Umezu, if not for him, after a time bomb-like memorial.  There was no more follow-up, leaving me unaware of the situation in Manchuria.  It¡¯s not as if the memorial had been suppressed for nearly a month and had to be concocted with many lies to cover up the facts!

    Is it easy for me?  General Mineuchi Hikaru hated Umezu Meijiro to the core, so he had to go to death. Even if his head was not used to appease His Majesty the Emperor's wrath, Umezu Yoshijiro must be kept away from the center of imperial power forever. It would be best to stay away from him.  The local one is remote and desolate.  He spent the rest of his life in a military reformatory on a deserted island that was almost isolated from the world. This man was too dangerous. He did this to protect himself!

    This was also the confidence that Yoneuchi Koichi was able to answer fluently under Emperor Hirohito's aggressive gaze and tone, but.  Obviously, Emperor Hirohito was not an easy man. After calming down, he sat back on the throne and asked seemingly casually: "My dear Minai, I have something unclear. You are a highly respected veteran. You are also the person I rely on the most.  I still need you to answer my questions.¡±

    Mi Nei Guangyi's entire mind instantly entered a state of high tension and alert, his ears were frightened and his brain was running rapidly.  For His Majesty the Emperor, who does not play cards according to common sense and has tricky and eccentric thinking, he must gather all his energy.  Because you don¡¯t know, what is His Majesty the Emperor¡¯s next question?

    "Your Majesty, it is your duty to share your worries with the Lord!" Koichi Mineuchi said respectfully, not saying too much but just right. He was neither impatient nor impetuous, nor did he look like he was being outraged because His Majesty the Emperor was not ashamed to ask. This is Koichi Mineuchi.  His brilliance was also what Emperor Hirohito admired most.

    Emperor Hirohito looked outside the palace, into the dark night, and his voice seemed to float from the darkness, "My love for Yonai, I don't understand. As the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, Umezu Yoshijiro has the right to write memorials, but why?"  If you don't submit this memorial directly to me, but you have to leave it in your hands, isn't it unnecessary and only adding to the misfortune?"

    This is what Emperor Hirohito couldn't understand. Before the Manchuria War situation became too corrupt and unmanageable, this memorial was seen by him. Umezu Yoshijiro must have lost his official position and been relegated to another book. But with the Manchuria War situation,  Step by step, according to his prophecy, he will come true. He will definitely know that he has wronged a talented general of the empire, and what is waiting for Umezu Yoshijiro will definitely be reinstated and take up a higher-level position. Is it not impossible?

    Also, the base camp has not received any reports on the war situation in Manchuria. This is true. The base camp does not cover the sky with one hand. I also have loyal eyes and ears in the base camp. Otherwise, how could I safely hand over the military power that determines the fundamentals of the empire to Koichi Mineuchi, my eyes and ears?  He secretly reported everything that happened in the base camp every day, and Minai Koichi did not lie.

    This adds to the mystery. As the war situation in Manchuria gradually reached an unfavorable level for the Kwantung Army, and there was no response to the memorial, it stands to reason that Umezu Yoshijiro should have sent a telegram to the base camp to report the situation of the war situation in Manchuria, or simply  He has the power to report directly to himself, but Umezu Yoshijiro neither reports to the base camp nor directly reports to himself. Isn't it uncharacteristic of him?

    It seems, it seems that all this is related to this minister who is respectful and frightened in front of him. Umezu Yoshijiro, this idiot who made Manchuria a mess, is now missing and his whereabouts are unknown. Otherwise, he will be immediately escorted to Tokyo.?If I ask it in person, many doubts will be solved. Emperor Hirohito must ask this question, otherwise, he will be heartbroken. At the same time, it will be a test of the loyalty of Yonei Koichi!

    Emperor Hirohito's question seems peaceful and casual, but the trap in it is unknown how deep it is. If you answer it directly, as the Minister of War and Chief of the General Staff of the base camp, Umezu Yoshijiro will naturally not be able to avoid it.  If it's bad, wouldn't it mean that he is in a higher position and more powerful than His Majesty the Emperor? The generals who are leading the troops outside only see Koichi Minai and not His Majesty the Emperor?

    ¡°To put it mildly, it threatens His Majesty the Emperor¡¯s throne; to put it more seriously, it is suspected of seeking power and usurping the throne?  Therefore, answering like this is asking for death, you are an idiot!

    But if you answer as you guessed, in order to increase the weight of this memorial, it would not be appropriate to involve yourself, the first person in the military who single-handedly controls the two major systems of the empire's military administration and military orders, to ensure that His Majesty the Emperor can accept this memorial.  , in this way, there is a suspicion of taking power and self-respect, and His Majesty the Emperor has to make some kind of compromise, and may adopt some suggestions in the memorial, but what happens next?

    Isn't this asking for trouble and violating a taboo? It has some meaning of forcing the palace. His Majesty the Emperor is a master of turning clouds and storms, plus he is ruthless. As the Minister of Army and Chief of General Staff of the base camp, he walked into the palace with such a distinguished status today.  Maybe, when he walked out the next moment, he was escorted into a prison car by the military police?

    Both direct answers and answers with your own guesses are inappropriate and will not do you any good. Fortunately, before deciding to submit Umezu Yoshijiro's memorial to His Majesty the Emperor, Mineuchi Koichi had already thought of his own countermeasures.  There was a look of extreme shame and pain on his face, and his voice became even hoarse as he said, "Your Majesty, I'm scared. Please forgive me for being stupid and incompetent. This is exactly what I'm still puzzled about!"

    Excellent!  Koichi Mineuchi's answer is really brilliant and watertight. Who knew that bastard Yoshijiro Umezu had the wrong nerve and inexplicably sent the memorial messenger to me?  Instead of using the right to play directly?  Since His Majesty the Emperor, who is a demigod, cannot figure out the thoughts of Yoshijiro Umezu, whose whereabouts are now unknown, I, Hikari Minai, as a minister, naturally cannot figure it out either!

    Obviously, the performance of Koichi Mineuchi made Emperor Hirohito very satisfied, and all the speculations in his heart disappeared. A smile appeared on his pale face, but then his expression darkened and he said painfully: "My love, Mineuchi, my biggest pain now,  There is no good strategy to save the war situation in Manchuria. If it is true as the memorial of Umezu Meijiro said, the appetite of the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli is not only Manchuria, but also the Korean Peninsula and the Far East! "

    "In this way, wouldn't the empire's more than two million soldiers on the battlefields in the Far East and the Korean Peninsula be in danger, and the Kwantung Army on the battlefield in Manchuria, wouldn't it be a situation where the entire army was annihilated? It's terrible, my dear Minai, what do you have?  What's the solution?"

    Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor no longer bothered about the memorial, Yoneuchi Koichi's heart was completely settled. He finally passed this test, with no danger, and it was his own responsibility to solve the problems for His Majesty the Emperor and to work hard for the hegemony of the Japanese Empire.  Of course, Miuchi Minai had already thought of his duties and responsibilities. He bowed deeply and said, "Your Majesty, the only way to do this now is to convene the military and political leaders from the base camp, the cabinet, and related departments, and immediately enter the palace and hold a meeting before the emperor."  Meeting, make a decision!¡±

    "This is related to the foundation of the empire, and the war situation in Manchuria has deteriorated. The situation is extremely dangerous and there is no need to delay. I believe that all ministers will express their opinions directly and offer suggestions!"

    "Okay! Let's do it according to the advice of the beloved Yonai!" Emperor Hirohito exclaimed, admiring Koichi Yonai's calmness and attitude. Indeed, it is related to the foundation of the Empire of Japan and the life and death of millions of imperial soldiers. Yonai  Instead of doing everything by himself and making decisions on his own, Guangyi proposed to convene an imperial meeting to brainstorm ideas. This is what a mature man would do to plan a country!

    "Your Majesty, I will obey the decree and inform the other ministers immediately!" Mi Neguang bowed deeply and was about to leave. Being with His Majesty, he was really depressed. He took the opportunity to go outside to breathe and change again.  Clothes soaked with sweat are also a happy thing. This imperial meeting will definitely be a marathon. Maybe it will not end for several days and nights. The problems faced are too difficult to solve. Yonei Koichi has already had a long-lasting fight.  Preparing for battle, wearing clothes that smell of sweat, what's going on?

    "My dear Yonai, wait a minute. The commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, Umezu Yoshijiro, is missing, and the chief of general staff, Matsuda Kenjiro, is too late to attend the imperial meeting. I have thought about it and asked the former commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, Nanjiro, to attend the imperial meeting.  , After all, he knows the situation in Manchuria better than I and you!" Emperor Hirohito suddenly called to Minai Koichi and gave instructions.
