Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Lieutenant General Nobutake Takahashi, the director of the Field Force Supervision Bureau of the Japanese Army Base Camp, is the leader of the young generals of the Japanese Army. He has long been dissatisfied with the suppression of a large number of senior ministers led by General Koichi Yoneuchi. Now, at the imperial military meeting  , Lieutenant General Minamino Osamuyama, director of the Strategic Research Bureau, put forward a proposal for opening up a battlefield in the United States, which provided him with an opportunity.

    His Majesty the Emperor clearly agreed. This is an opportunity. Takahashi Nobutake's calculations are very clever. He is not completely competing for power with the elders and ministers. He has his own plans. If he directs this war that shocked the country and even the world.  , then it would be difficult for a war commander to become famous.

    Moreover, he analyzed it calmly and found that this guy Nanye was indeed talented. He had analyzed all the factors in the document. Therefore, when opening a battlefield in the United States, the possibility of victory was very high. Even if it failed, at most  Just losing some combat aircraft cannot shake the foundation of the Army. How big can the crime be?

    Furthermore, from the bottom of my heart, it was also my wish that the Empire of Japan could win the Australian War and turn the Pacific Ocean into the inland sea of ??the empire. All these factors, intertwined together, and the business of making sure profits without losing money, prompted Nobutake Takahashi to  Lieutenant General, please take the initiative to seize the opportunity!

    Lieutenant General Nobutake Takahashi, the leader of the young generals in the base camp, clearly stated that he supported Minano's plan to build the mountain. However, this angered a large number of civil and military ministers including Miuchi Miuchi, who all stared at him with murderous eyes.  From the perspective of Guangyi and others, these guys who don't know how high the sky is are just adding fuel to the fire!

    "Takahashi Nobutake took the initiative to volunteer, and Emperor Hirohito was certainly happy. It is the luck of the empire that military generals fight bravely, but.  He already had a suitable candidate in mind, so he said with a smile: "Ai Qiao Takahashi. I am very pleased that you took the initiative to serve. However, the Field Force Supervision Bureau is also an extremely important department, and we still need Ai Qiao Takahashi like this."  Only talented people can take charge, otherwise, I won¡¯t worry!¡±

    "As for the candidate for the commander of this military operation, I have decided that General Yamamoto, who is commanding the Navy Combined Fleet and fighting against the U.S. Pacific Fleet, will serve as the commander. This is also strongly recommended by Minamino Aiki!"

    "Major matters involving the fate of the empire should be handed over to the Navy?" After Emperor Hirohito finished speaking, Koichi Yonai's face was very ugly. His heart was full of loss and anger, including hatred for Minamino Shuzan and anger towards Takahashi Nobutake.  .

    "As for the Navy Minister, Admiral Nagano Shuzan, he was stunned at first, and then he was happy, even though he did not agree with the plan of that lunatic Minano.  But looking at His Majesty the Emperor's attitude, it is obvious that it cannot be changed now.  This important position fell into the hands of the Navy, and I couldn't object.

    So, General Nagano stood up and said: "Your Majesty, gentlemen, I agree with Minano-kun's statement. The navy will fully support General Yamamoto Goto to complete the important task of opening up the battlefield in the United States!"

    "Asshole! Damn, you are really not a thing! Just now, we were on the same front as me. As soon as I heard that the navy was responsible for this crazy plan, I immediately changed my position!" Miuchi Miuchi's betrayal of Nagano Shuzan.  I was very angry and felt that I had been tricked and isolated.

    With the support of the military ministers, Emperor Hirohito was of course happy. He did not want several civil and military ministers to estrange from him because of this plan. He said with satisfaction: "I have issued an edict to recall Yamamoto Aiki. He  We are on our way back to our homeland. Today's imperial meeting is just to inform you of Minano Aiky¨­'s plan. After Yamamoto Aiky¨­ returns, we will hold another imperial meeting to study the specific combat arrangements! "

    Then, Emperor Hirohito looked at the civil and military ministers with different expressions, and once again made a shocking decision, "I will issue an edict immediately. Minamino Aiky¨­ will serve as the deputy chief of staff of the headquarters general staff from now on.  I was promoted to the rank of General of the Imperial Army. The Strategic Research Bureau was upgraded to the Strategic Coordination Headquarters, which is a unit parallel to the General Staff. It is responsible to me. The head of this department is Minamino Aiki, who is dedicated to the strategic planning and research of the Empire's foreign operations.  question!"

    It's unreasonable to reach the sky in one step. This guy Minamino is really lucky. The deputy chief of staff is nothing to be jealous of. With Koichi Yoneuchi, the military's top boss, on top, he can't make any trouble, but strategically  The Coordinating Headquarters is a big deal. It is on an equal footing with the General Staff and is directly responsible to His Majesty the Emperor. Isn¡¯t it true that many important military affairs can be bypassed by the General Staff?

    ??Thinking ministers, are you wondering whether His Majesty the Emperor¡¯s meaning and intentions behind this incident are the beginning of weakening the power of Koichi Mineuchi, or a means to check and balance him?  The look he looked at Minai Koichi had a special meaning.

    The most disappointing and disturbing thing is undoubtedly General Mitsuru Mineuchi. Not only did he fail to stop Minamino Shuzan's plan from being passed at the meeting, but he also showed up as a strategic coordinator??, he forcibly cut off a piece of the power of the General Staff. After many years of ups and downs in the officialdom, he had never thought that this was a way for His Majesty the Emperor to weaken his own power, or the beginning of his indifference to himself!

    But no matter how you think about it, it is impossible. Just at the last imperial military meeting, His Majesty the Emperor gave himself the greatest power to directly command the Australian war. It was the largest heavy force group in the empire. Koichi Yoneuchi's mind was very confused, "  The emperor's heart is unpredictable!" He sighed in a low mood.

    Admiral Nagano Shuzan, the Minister of the Navy, caught up from behind and shouted: "Yonei-kun, please stay!"

    As soon as he heard this guy calling him again, Minaiguang's anger couldn't be suppressed. Anyway, the two of them were old rivals who had been fighting for many years. They knew each other too well, and they didn't hide any emotions, so they turned around without saying a word.  He glared angrily at General Nagano, but wanted to see what this bastard said?

    Seeing Minai act like a fighting cock, General Nagano knew what was going on. After catching him, he said in a calm tone: "Minai, don't blame me. Think about it. The situation at that time, His Majesty the Emperor, was completely  I was convinced by that guy Nan Ye¡¯s words. Can you and I change it? You still don¡¯t know what your Majesty¡¯s temper is?¡±

    "I also advise Minei-kun, don't just focus on opposition. I just read the original statement, and I think that the lunatic Nanye's plan is very feasible. It is bold and surprising. It is mainly a strategy of 'drawing money from the bottom of the cauldron' and seize it."  It¡¯s a great idea to take advantage of the Germans¡¯ opportunity to send troops to South America!¡±

    "Hmph!" General Minai Koichi snorted and said nonchalantly: "I didn't expect Nagano-kun to change his position so quickly. Also, will your navy carry out such a crazy plan that can change the fate of the empire?  There¡¯s no reason to object. I¡¯m not feeling well, so I¡¯ll say goodbye first!¡±

    After saying that, Miuchi didn't even think about taking a look at General Nagano. He walked away angrily, looking at the back of Miuchi as he walked away, "Humph, you are such a scheming guy. It's not because he didn't get the task of executing this plan."  !" General Nagano curled his lips in disdain and muttered.

    Two days later, the Commander of the Japanese Navy's Combined Fleet, General Yamamoto, who received the order from His Majesty the Emperor, rushed back to Tokyo after a long journey. However, Emperor Hirohito did not rush to convene an imperial military meeting, but asked his attendants to  Send a message, "Yamamoto Aiky¨­ can go to the Strategic Coordination Headquarters of the base camp and meet with the head of the headquarters, General Minamino, to exchange mutual views. Then, I will summon you!"

    Yamamoto's five generals had no impression of Minamino Shuzan. The army and the navy were not under each other, and they had never interacted with each other. In addition, the previous Strategic Research Bureau was an institution that sat on the sidelines. If it weren't for  His Majesty the Emperor's edict mentioned that he had almost forgotten that there was such an organization in the base camp. Therefore, General Yamamoto was very disapproving of meeting with General Minamino, with a guy who only knew how to talk on paper.  , is there anything to communicate with?

    Has this Nanye Shushan ever led troops or fought in a war?  With reluctance, Yamamoto's five generals came to the strategic coordination headquarters of the base camp. Unexpectedly, the two parties met and talked for only ten minutes. They both felt that they had met so late. They probably found a soulmate. This is how it feels.  .

    Minamino Osamu was good at strategic planning, but not proficient in battle tactics. If he was allowed to command a division of Japanese troops on the battlefield, the entire army would be annihilated. However, Yamamoto Isoroku was one of the few senior Japanese military officers.  A commander who is proficient in battles and tactics. In history, the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, the base of the U.S. Navy's Pacific Fleet, can be said to be the pinnacle of Admiral Yamamoto's work.

    The two people happen to be complementary types, but they are both fanatical militants and outright militarists. They work tirelessly to dominate the Japanese Empire and regard it as their lifelong career. This is what the two people have in common, Yamamoto Go**  General, he had long planned to start a war in the United States, but he suffered from the lack of support from the base camp, and General Minamino's statement provided him with just such an opportunity!

    The meeting went very pleasantly. The two people belonging to different factions of the army and navy transcended their factional opinions and became confidants. General Minamino's strategic vision requires tacticians like General Yamamoto to realize it, and General Yamamoto listened.  General Minamino's words opened up his horizons and thinking, and he suddenly felt enlightened. On many issues, the two people hit it off and they were surprisingly consistent!

    This is fate. After a few hours, the two of them were like old friends who had known each other for many years. They had an amazing tacit understanding with each other. They just kowtowed and laughed. From time to time, they could be heard from inside the house, making the guards at the door alert.  I was stunned for a while.

    Looking at how late it was, General Minamino took General Yamamoto¡¯s hand and said sincerely: ¡°Yamamoto-kun, I will host a family banquet tonight.I'll cleanse you from the wind!  "

    Yamamoto Isoroku was not pretentious and said cheerfully: "Nano-kun invites you, how dare Yamamoto disobey!"

    So, two senior generals who decided the future direction of Japan's military strength rode away side by side.
