Yamamoto said: "There are only two possibilities, one is a coincidence, and the other is that there were German spies inside the Imperial Navy. ”

Nagano's eyes sharpened, and he asked in a deep voice, "What is the possibility of a spy?" ”

"We've been extremely strict about the secrecy of the battleship Yamato, but he opened his mouth and offered to visit the Yamato, and he knew that the Yamato was nearing completion, and I couldn't think of any other reason than spies." Yamamoto said.

"Isn't he afraid of exposing those spies? He doesn't look like the kind of reckless person. ”

"I don't know why he did this, and after the meeting, I'll immediately send the Ministry of Internal Affairs to investigate suspicious people." Yamamoto said.

"Even if Germany is our ally, no spies will be allowed."

Yamamoto Fifty-six heard the murderous aura in Nagano's words, nodded and said, "I know what to do." ”

"He said he made the plan alone, how much do you think it could be true?"

"What he put forward is only an operational concept, which can still be accomplished by his own ability, and the missing details are the work to be done by the staff officers. I observed the expressions of the other German naval officers present, and their expressions told me that they believed that Project Diablo had been done by him alone. Yamamoto said.

"If it's really this combat concept that he formulated alone, his ability is too terrifying."

"He is our ally, and the more capable he is, the better it will be for us." Yamamoto said.

After Nagano Shusei and Yamamoto Isoroku returned to the conference room, on-site questions began immediately.

Unbeknownst to Chen Dao, less than two days after his arrival in Japan, Yamamoto Isoroku had already decided to conduct a large-scale investigation of the Japanese navy to find the spy who did not exist.

In the spirit of convincing people with reason, Chen Dao patiently answered the questions of the Japanese naval officers present, and whenever he encountered a problem that was too complicated, Chen Dao said, "This kind of detailed problem should be a problem that the staff officers should consider." I'm only in charge of the rough picture. "Prevaricating for the answer.

The question-and-answer lasted for about fifteen minutes, and a rear admiral named Tabun Yamaguchi asked a crucial question: "Your Excellency the Governor, do you think that the first round of operations will not be able to inflict heavy damage on the US Navy?" Are the latter two actions, especially Operation Patching, the remedial measures for the first action? ”

Chen Dao glanced at the Major General Yamaguchi, who seemed to be unable to wake up, nodded and said: "Of course it is, first of all, whether the first action can be successful, or even if it succeeds, it cannot guarantee that the expected effect will be achieved, of course we must make a preparatory plan in advance to remedy it." Even if our first attack destroyed all the aircraft carriers of the U.S. Pacific Fleet. The United States will also transfer new aircraft carriers from the Atlantic Fleet, or directly transfer warships of the British Royal Navy to fight in the Pacific. ”

Hearing Chen Dao's answer, Yamamoto Fifty-six first nodded, thinking that what Chen Dao said was reasonable, and then suddenly remembered one thing, Yamamoto was about to speak, Nagano Xiu grabbed ahead of him and said: "Your Excellency the Governor, you said that the Americans will send the main warships of the Atlantic Fleet into the Pacific Ocean to fight?" ”

Chen Dao asked with a smile: "The main force of the American Pacific Fleet has been hit hard. Is it strange that they sent warships of the Atlantic Fleet into the Pacific to fight? ”

"If our country launches a war against the United States, will your country declare war on the United States? If your country declares war on the United States, how much of the power of the American Atlantic Fleet will be able to contain it? Nagano asked.

All the discussions in the conference room came to an abrupt end, all eyes converged on Chen Dao, Yamamoto Fifty-six stared at Chen Dao with blazing eyes, expecting Chen Dao to give the answer he wanted, and Nagano Shushen asked exactly the question he wanted to ask.

Chen Dao put away the smile on his face, and his serious gaze swept over the faces of every officer in the conference room.

"Although my following remarks only represent my personal opinion, I still hope that General Nagano and General Yamamoto will do a good job of secrecy."

All the officers present were infected by Chen Dao's emotions. The expression on his face became grim, waiting to hear Chen Dao's statement.

"Since the day the United States implemented the Lend-Lease Act, Germany has recognized the ambition of the Americans to enter the war. There are two reasons why they have not yet declared war on Germany or Japan. First, it is because of the obstruction of isolationist forces in the country; The second is because they are not ready for war. Personally, I think the second reason is the most important. The reason why Germany endured the repeated provocations of the United States in the Atlantic region was entirely because the strength of the German navy was too weak, not even one-third of the US navy, to confront the US navy, so it had to choose patience.

Why did Germany not hesitate to cede its interests in Eastern Europe and draw the Soviet Union into the Axis bloc? It is to eliminate the hidden dangers on the Eastern Front and allocate more resources to develop the navy in order to face a may, nay, inevitable war with the United States in the future.

As far as my personal attitude is concerned, it is better for us to strike first than to wait for the Americans to complete their war readiness and declare war on us. The German navy is not strong enough and can only choose to be patient, but the Japanese navy is different, your strength is strong enough that you don't have to be patient. If the Japanese Navy were able to inflict heavy damage on the US Navy, I would personally certainly recommend that the Führer declare war on the United States, which, of course, began with a surprise attack on the US Atlantic Fleet. ”

Isoroku Yamamoto asked, "Your Excellency, how likely do you think it is that your head of state will agree to declare war on the United States?" ”

Chen Dao unleashed a powerful Tai Chi push.

"The more the U.S. Navy is weakened in a surprise attack on the U.S. Pacific Fleet, the more likely it is that I will succeed in persuading the Führer to declare war."

Nagano soothed for a moment, and then said, "Thank you for your support to Japan, let's move on to the second part of the plan." ”

After dinner, Chen Dao and all the officers present fought at night, and the topic of discussion between the two sides was no longer limited to the "Diablo" plan, but an all-round discussion on the future development of the navy, operations, and the positioning of various arms in the navy.

The discussion lasted until nearly 12 a.m., and Chen Dao dragged his lead-heavy legs back to the makeshift dormitory for the night.

Sitting on a chair in the dormitory, Nagano Xiu rubbed his bloodshot eyes and said: "I will go back to Tokyo at dawn tomorrow and convey the attitude of Germany to the Prime Minister, you continue to accompany Governor Rosen, remember to keep the contents of the meeting confidential, and the memorandum of the meeting must be sorted out as soon as possible." From the point of view of playing chess. The plan we had in the past saw a maximum of three moves, but he saw five, and in short, it was a plan that helped us a lot in our war with the United States. Let the staff officers of the Combined Fleet Command understand this plan as soon as possible, work out the details of the plan, and then implement it on a later date. ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six nodded repeatedly, and then said, "I just had an idea, can we do this?"

After listening to Yamamoto Isoroku's report. Nagano said, "Your idea is very good, and when I return to Tokyo tomorrow, I will submit it to the prime minister." ”

In the early morning of the next day, Chen Dao woke up and was told that Nagano had returned to Tokyo.

Under the guidance of the guide sent by Yamamoto Isoroku, Chen Dao and his men got a taste of the customs of Hiroshima.

It's just that what Yamamoto and the others don't know is that when Chen Dao led his men to tour the streets and alleys of Hiroshima, what he had in mind was a vicious idea.

Whether it is Yamamoto Isoroku or Nagumo Tadaichi and others, they are quite enthusiastic about themselves and their subordinates, and for their sake, they will be responsible for dropping the atomic bomb on Hiroshima in the future. It is better to leave it to the United States to complete, and Germany will not steal the limelight from the Americans.

In the next few days, Chen Dao's schedule was very full, and he enthusiastically exchanged naval combat experiences with Yamamoto and others, while guiding the staff officers of the Japanese Navy to refine the details of the Diablo plan.

In his spare time, Chen Dao will look at the snow-white summit of Mt. Fuji and sketch out a grand plan in his mind.

If I am not mistaken, Mt. Fuji appears to be an active volcano that is dormant, and if an atomic bomb with a 20,000-ton T-N-T equivalent was dropped from that crater. Don't know what the consequences will be?

The scene must be spectacular, but I hope there is a chance to realize this big dream, Chen Dao pondered as he stared at Mt. Fuji.

Chen Dao was pondering the detonation of Mount Fuji, his side. Major Bach and others were also pondering him.

In the blink of an eye, it is already 3 December, and according to the established schedule, tomorrow morning he will meet with Japanese Prime Minister Hideki Tojo, visit the Japanese emperor in the afternoon, and attend the practice ceremony held by the Japanese Navy the morning after tomorrow, and then he will be able to set off for home.

Major Bach's mood is stable at the moment. The reason is that Chen Dao's performance is quite normal, there is no abnormal behavior, and his face has not changed, I think it is because he has just entered December, and his condition is not serious.

Major Bach and the four men secretly prayed that His Excellency the Governor, who was in the period of illness, would not make any mistakes during the two visits tomorrow and at the practice ceremony the morning after tomorrow, and that he would try to bring the visit to a perfect end.

In order to ensure the safety of the last day and a half, Major Bach walked into Chen Dao's bedroom that night and once again reminded Chen Dao to pay attention to controlling his emotions in diplomatic occasions tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Chen Dao calmly accepted Major Bach's reminder and said that they did not need to be worried.

After comforting Major Bach, Chen Dao washed up and prepared to fall asleep, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.

Rushing into the toilet, Chen Dao released it happily and returned to bed and fell asleep peacefully.

More than an hour later, the bedside lamp at Chen Dao's bedside turned on, and Chen Dao rushed into the toilet with his clothes on, and a moment later, the sound of him vomiting came from the toilet

At dawn the next day, Chen Dao lay on the bed with his eyes closed and fell asleep, with four adjutants standing beside the bed, as well as a military doctor on the Bismarck.

A few minutes later, Chen Dao followed the instructions of the military doctor in a daze, and took out a thermometer from under his armpit and handed it to the military doctor.

The military doctor wrote down the temperature and then said: "The temperature in the armpit is thirty-nine degrees Celsius, which is a high fever. Combined with the symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea on the general's body, I judged that His Excellency the Governor was suffering from acute gastroenteritis and complications from a cold, and recommended that he be hospitalized for observation. ”

With Chen Dao's identity and condition, no one would raise objections to the military doctor's recommendation.

About an hour and a half later, Chen Dao was lying in the intensive care unit of the University of Tokyo Hospital.

Looking at Yamamoto Fifty-six, who came to visit, Chen Dao said weakly: "My illness may be caused by the lack of adaptation to the soil and water, not to mention that it is not a serious illness that will kill people, you don't have to worry about me having an accident." ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six said apologetically, "Anyway, we didn't take good care of you to make your Excellency sick, I'm really sorry for causing trouble to you." ”

"I am the one who should be causing the trouble, and my meeting with Prime Minister Tojo and His Majesty the Emperor has to be postponed, and I ask for their forgiveness." Chen Dao said.

"This is not your fault, there is no need for your identity to apologize, cooperating with the doctor to take care of your body is the most important thing for your Excellency now." Yamamoto said.

Chen Dao lay in bed for five days, and in the course of five days, Hirohito and Hideki Tojo sent envoys to visit the patient.

The German Embassy even sent a special person to guard Chen Dao's bedside, sending Chen Dao's illness back to Germany by telegram every day, lest Chen Dao's illness recur.

On the fifth day of admission, Chen Dao felt that his body had recovered and was ready to be discharged, but he was "blocked" in the ward by Major Bach and the German ambassador to Japan for two more days to consolidate the treatment effect.

On the evening of October 10, Chen Dao finally got through his illness and was "released from prison" from the hospital.

Under Yamamoto's irresistible invitation, Chen Dao finally moved into his room at the Tokyo State Guesthouse.

"This illness came so suddenly, without this week, we will definitely not be able to get back to Germany before Christmas, and you will not be able to spend Christmas with your family, I feel very sorry not to go, or should we fly back?" Chen Dao said apologetically to Major Bach and the others.

Major Bach and the others knew that Chen Dao had airsickness, and he was recovering from a serious illness, so how could they dare to let Chen Dao take the risk of taking a plane, so he hurriedly excused himself and said: "Let's take a boat, airsickness medicine has side effects, and taking too much is not good for Your Excellency's health." ”

Major Lorenz and the three also followed to persuade Chen Dao, and successfully dispelled Chen Dao's idea of returning to China by plane.

"You still have to meet with the Prime Minister and the Emperor of Japan tomorrow, so it's better to rest as soon as possible, and we'll leave first." Major Bach took his leave and left.

Chen Dao walked into the bathroom and took a hot shower, then brushed his teeth in the mirror, and while brushing his teeth, he recalled that the condition was very strange.

Could it be that Aunt Amurasu sensed her great idea of "dropping nuclear bombs at Fuji Pass" and secretly warned herself not to mess around?

As a staunch theist, Chen Dao was full of doubts.

Biting his toothbrush, Chen Dao suddenly leaned in front of the mirror and stretched his eyelids with his fingers.

There are red bloodshot eyes again, is it because you haven't slept well? (To be continued.) )
