"All members of the Combined Fleet join the rebel army? Ugaki entangled blade god heavy virtue? Hearing Chiaki Matsuda's report, Yamamoto Isoroku, who was chatting with Horikichi in the military command department, was stunned, "This ...... This...... This...... No way. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

"You don't believe it?"

"No, no, no, I believe in the matter of the United Fleet, the key is that Ugaki is entangled ......" Yamamoto Fifty-six showed a confused look, "The two of us haven't given Ugaki a good face, I still politely offered him up, you are even more ruthless, you drove him away on the first day on the ship, how could he?" ”

"Alas, everyone has forgotten Ugaki's nickname 'Golden Masquerade.'" Inoue Narumi sighed, "This is actually his usual routine and style, and Kazukawa doesn't seem to understand it, it's really careless." ”

The true meaning of "Golden Masquerade" is "the scumbag crusher", Ugaki entangles those who are not as good as himself, regardless of the other party's period, he does not fake the color; But on the other hand, if his ability is stronger than him, no matter what people think of him, he admires him respectfully and respectfully.

Regarding Hori's dismissal on the first day, he actually wrote in his diary: Well done! It is true that a chief of staff like me, who has tampered with the results of the exercise and does not dare to face up to the problem, can no longer be appointed, and needs to be sober and sober in another position.

When Horikichi not only led the Yamato to break through and win the naval battle in the South Pacific, but also led the combined fleet to the west to win successive battles, and even dared to use battleships such as Mutsu to block the Panama Canal, Ugaki decided that the combined fleet must be brought by Horiyoshi. "While Chief Yamamoto became increasingly conservative and bureaucratic after his short-lived spell at Pearl Harbor, Chief Horikichi continued to innovate and take the Combined Fleet to new heights, especially when he insisted on reforming the entire naval system, and said things I wanted to say but didn't dare to say, which was a great thing to look up to......

In the evening, the main force of the Combined Fleet entered Tokyo Bay and joined up with the Second Naval Battle, and the atmosphere was warm and the sound of "onboarding" was incessant.

Hearing that the whole army of the Combined Fleet was "rebellious", and in desperation, Kagawa Koshiro committed suicide in the room, Kondo Nobutake sighed after arriving at the scene, and explained: "Restrain the commander well, and then find a good coffin to bury him, he has worked in the navy all his life, and there is always hard work without much credit." ”

Following in the footsteps of Kawakoshiro's suicide is also Nagumo Tadaichi, after witnessing the killing of Matsushita Koji, Arima Masafumi and several staff officers "anyway", he was the only one who was detained by the rebel army, and his expression was extremely depressed, although Tsunoda and Nishimura were polite to him, and Yamamoto Isoroku also sent a telegram asking for a way to save Nagumo. But in the cynicism of the surrounding guards, intentionally or unintentionally, coupled with the news that the entire combined fleet had joined the rebel army, Nagumo Tadaichi's last string broke and he chose to commit suicide.

"Welcome back to the ship, sir!" The deck of the Yamato, which docked at night, was brightly lit, and the officers and men of the Yamato, led by Nobutake Kondo, lined up in two neat columns to greet them.

"You've worked hard!" Horikichi bowed slightly to everyone, "Thank you for your support for the just cause!" ”

"Onboard!" Everyone cheered.

Horikichi walked up to Kondo Nobutake first and thanked him, and then deliberately walked in front of Ugaki and patted the other party on the shoulder: "Ugaki-kun, it's not easy for you." ”

"Sir!" Ugaki is entangled in a thousand words, all in salute.

"What? The combined fleet is in rebellion? And Shiro Kawakoshi committed suicide? When he received a call from Horikichi, Ishihara was so shocked that he could barely hold the microphone.

"I don't have to lie to you, do you want to send a few staff officers to the docks to have a look?"

"Okay, I'll send someone right away, right away!"

"What's going on?" Tada Jun looked at Ishihara Waner, who was uncertain as he walked into his office, and asked in surprise, "Seeing that you look flustered, what new trick did Horikichi come up with?" ”

"All the surnames of the Combined Fleet are ......"

"What?" Tada Jun was also taken aback, standing up and overturning the chair without realizing it.

"Verify it immediately and report it to His Highness, this is a big deal!"

King Minoru Higashikurenomiya was woken up by Ishihara's phone call in a daze: "Ishihara-kun, you say, I'll sleep after listening." In the evening, His Majesty could not contact the Combined Fleet, and sent a large fire, which upset everyone. ”

"Don't wait, the Yamato is all parked at the docks."

"What? You repeat. ”

"All the main forces of the fleet, including the Yamato, have joined the rebel army."

"This, this, this...... And Shiro Kawakoshi lost too quickly, right? ”

"Horikichi's strength is unfathomable, you report to Your Majesty earlier, and make a decision early whether to die or live. If Your Majesty must persist in doing his job to the end, I will send a plane to take him out of Tokyo and go to North Korea first to avoid the limelight. ”

King Minoru of Higashikure Palace knew that the second half of the sentence was nonsense and fled to North Korea? Wouldn't that really be a civil war?

"Smack!" After listening to the report, a vase was swept to the ground by Hirohito, and everyone who was urgently summoned did not dare to come out.

"And Shiro Kawakoshi mistook the country! Mistakenly! Sin is unforgivable! ”

"Your Majesty!"

"I don't care, it's a big deal that the king dies, how do you love it." Hirohito's sleeves flicked away, leaving only the stunned ministers.

"Ishihara said that if His Majesty still has this temper, he can only send a plane to North Korea tomorrow."

"Towards ...... North Korea? The Minister of the Interior shuddered and subconsciously repeated.

"How did this happen? How did it come to this? Sugiyama Moto, there repeatedly.

"You bastard, look at the people you recommend, look at what you do!" Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace was furious on the head of the guard, Baiwu Yuanwu, who didn't dare to say a word, and muttered in despair, "And Chuan misunderstood me!" And Chuan misunderstood me! ”

Now the situation is very clear, with the arrival of the main force of the combined fleet, in the face of the unparalleled artillery fire of Yamato and Musashi, not to mention a guard division, even if three more are useless, if you continue to be tough, you can really only fly out of Tokyo City.

King Minoru of the Higashikure Palace attached himself to the ear of the Minister of the Interior and whispered: "Why don't I ask Takeda to protect you early tomorrow morning and go to the Military Command Department to talk to Hori Yoshichi about the conditions?" Your Majesty has lost enough face. ”

"Yes, yes!" The other party nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

"Ladies and gentlemen." In the Yamato war room, Horiyoshi held the first meeting after the expansion of the rebel army, "His Royal Highness King Minoruhiko of Higashikure Palace has just sent a message that Minister Kido will come tomorrow to express his condolences to our army. ”

"Okay, okay......"

"Hahaha, this old turtle finally knows that he is afraid." Everyone knew exactly what "condolences" meant.

"It's only the last step, but it's still going to be good." Horiyoshi smiled, "I plan to send a telegram to all the powerful units of the army, so that they can jointly appeal for ......."

"Sir, I'll do the work of the Nanyang Army, I'm familiar with them." Keno Kurita was the first to speak.

"Let's do the work of the Kwantung Army and the Korean Army." Tsunoda and Nishimura stood up together, "I just dealt with each other some time ago. ”

"I'll be in charge of India's military dispatch." This is a representation of either grass deer.

"I will send troops from China myself." Horikichi smiled, "The victory of the rebellion is just around the corner, and I will drink with you when I succeed!" ”

"I'm waiting to congratulate the chief!"

In the early morning of the 30th, the commander of the Kwantung Army, Umezu Mijiro, was leading the crowd to inspect the 200,000 tons of munitions and supplies newly transported, when he suddenly received a telegram: "The combined fleet hopes for our support, and the palace is also waiting for us to express its position." ”

"Oh...... That's right. Admiral Umezu tilted his head and thought for a moment, "Is the Combined Fleet confirmed that it has all returned to Shun Horiyoshi?" ”

"That's right, it's all confirmed."

"Call back: The Soviet Red Army is unwilling to accept the previous defeat, is ready to move, and may launch a large-scale cross-border attack at any time, the headquarters guards the national border, and is unable to return to the mainland, I hope that this incident will be resolved peacefully as soon as possible."

The governor of Korea, Koiso Kuniaki, also received a similar telegram, and he asked his subordinates with a frown: "What is the reply of the Kwantung Army?" ”

The staff officer reported again.

After thinking about it, he dictated: "Call back: In view of the imminent large-scale invasion of the Soviet army, the Korean army, as the support and support force of the Kwantung Army, has a heavy responsibility, and cannot be moved lightly, and is unable to return for the time being, hoping for a peaceful solution and not hurting the vitality of the empire!" ”

"Sir, Prime Minister, he's still waiting for you......"

"Forget it, he's old and confused, what does he care about this kind of thing? Not messy enough? Listen to me! ”

"India's dispatch of troops telegram: At present, the Indian campaign has entered a critical period, and the number of troops is seriously insufficient, so I implore you to send more reinforcements, and the combined fleet is a key element of India's strategy, and it must be properly handled......"

"Telegram from the Nanyang armies: I was deeply shocked to hear about the changes in the homeland, and at present the British and American forces are ready to move, and our army is in a tight position and cannot do anything, and I hope that the homeland will be stable and Your Majesty will live a ......long life."

"China sent a telegram: Chinese mainland the situation has seriously deteriorated since the armed friction between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in late October, and the scale of the struggle has escalated repeatedly, and this dispatch army is currently paying close attention to the progress of the situation, suppressing the other side's behavior of crossing the line, and is unable to return to the division for the time being, but I hope that the whole of our imperial navy and army will work with one heart and one mind......

As the telegrams were read, Hirohito's face grew paler.

Interior Minister Kido said in a trembling voice, "I have been in contact with Admiral Horiyoshi once today, and the Navy has proposed to hold a grand military parade on December 31 to show the majesty of the Navy, boost the morale of the people, and celebrate the arrival of the New Year of Showa 19, and I respectfully invite Your Majesty to attend. ”

"Don't go!" Hirohito gasped and scolded, "I don't have such tyrannical and unscrupulous officers and soldiers, I don't have such a rebellious Combined Fleet, and I don't have such a disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and disrespectful naval commander!" ”

"Your Majesty, the navy insists that Your Majesty attend."

"Let's just say I'm sick."

"Your Majesty, there is one more sentence for the Navy...... A ...... Minister...... Minister...... Don't dare to say. ”

"Say, what other great rebellious words! Tell me about it! Hirohito yelled as he slapped the table.

The Navy said...... The Navy said...... "The voice of the Minister of the Interior was full of fear," ...... If His Majesty is not physically fit for the parade, then it is okay to ask Prince Yonghito of Chichibu Palace to attend on his behalf, and if Prince Yonghito is also sick, he can also ask Prince Nobuhito of Takamatsunomiya to attend; …… If the former emperor and the prince are all sick, it is okay to let Akihito Jigong participate on his behalf! ”

With a "bang", the cup in Hirohito's hand could no longer be pinched, and fell to the ground and shattered into countless pieces......
