"The Kwantung Army? Got to the Kwantung Army? Inoue Narumi was stunned for a moment, suddenly reacted, and shouted in shock, "Horiyoshi and the Kwantung Army have a gentleman's agreement?" ”

"My old classmate is not a reckless person, he is a person who takes one step, sees three steps, and thinks five steps, and wants to turn his face against the Soviet Union, and he would not have done this without the support and support of the Kwantung Army. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Of course, it is not excluded that there are other ideas...... "Yamamoto Isoroku said with a wry smile, "There is nothing more than human affection outside of the law, not to mention the practice of not holding the public accountable for the law." Although Umezu Mijiro was vague when he came to me yesterday, I had a gut feeling that Horiyoshi would share the spoils with him, and a poor ghost like the Kwantung Army could still walk after seeing 200,000 tons of supplies? ”

"But the general befriended other generals, and it was taboo for the commander to collude with other commanders, not to mention the relationship between the fleet and the Kwantung Army across the land and sea, I'm afraid Your Majesty won't be able to sleep."

"That's why he said it's time for me."

"But Your Highness, Your Majesty's anger ......"

"Are you afraid?"

"I ...... What do I have to fear, and it's not my order. ”

"Then what is he afraid of?"

Inoue Narumi woke up suddenly: with Hori Yoshi's military exploits, status, prestige and control of the fleet, this matter is at most to take out his joint fleet commander, as long as he himself does not rebel, others will not even dare to touch half of the cold hair, otherwise he will wait for the "heavenly thief".

"Have you ever thought that his military exploits are so prominent, there is no one before or after, who took over his squad is not trembling, walking on thin ice, and now he holds a record of complete victories and retreats bravely, in case the fleet loses a big battle in the future, what will the grassroots think after comparison? Isn't it up to the world? When the time comes, he will return as a matter of course. Yamamoto Fifty-six showed a helpless expression, "After Pearl Harbor and the Coral Sea, I also had this status, but unfortunately it was lost by Midway, if the rapids retreated bravely, I will say the same now, right?" ”

Inoue Narumi was stunned: "He thinks so far? The Combined Fleet can't play without him? ”

"You don't really have to leave him to play, as long as people feel that they can't play without him, now it's a war, wow, how important is the position of the commander in command when fighting, can you deal with the kind of intrigue of political struggle in peacetime? That's why I said that His Highness is not smart enough, and if he takes a step back now and retires from the position of chief minister, the pressure of this reverse will be on Horikichi, but His Highness is blinded by personal grievances, and he can't see or hear. ”

"Well, I'll admit that no one can touch him now, so how to deal with this? The Soviets are still waiting. ”

"It is estimated that everyone will scold each other, and it will not be ......"

"No, it won't." Inoue Narumi showed a confused look, "The Russians are so soft? ”

"What else? Declare war on us, fight? No kidding, the Red Army was defeated by the Germans on the Western Front, lost ground and struggled, where is there still room to open up the Far Eastern theater. Don't be afraid to really fight, the army has continuously withdrawn troops from Chinese mainland, there is a surplus of troops, and the strength of the Kwantung Army is second to none, and it is no problem to fight the defense and now the front, right? Yamamoto 56 explained, "This time it's not that the army wants to go north, but the army wants to fight the autumn wind to get benefits, if I'm not mistaken, now the two daring guys are estimated to be escorting the ship to the Kwantung Army, and when it comes to the things in the hands of Umezu Mijiro, still expect him to spit it out?" As for the remaining half, it is estimated that the navy took it itself, plus the reward of the Germans, my old classmate's business experience, you and I will bow down......"

Inoue Narumi was speechless, and didn't ask the stupid words of what to do with the remaining half of the Navy's supplies: Do you want to hand it back when you get to the Navy? Whoever dares to give this order back will wait tomorrow to be "punished by heaven" by fanatical officers and soldiers.

"Ruthless!" After thinking about it for a long time, he had no choice but to spit out these two words from his mouth hatefully.

"If you don't accept this routine, you can't do it!" Yamamoto Fifty-six laughed, "We don't have to talk at night, just look at how the fleet quarrels with the Military Command Department, there has never been a quarrel between the fleet and the Navy Ministry, there has never been a confrontation between the fleet and the Military Command Department, and he is also the only ruthless in the whole of Japan." ”

"Your Highness, Commanders, Your Ambassador, this is a record of the whole process of the ship's incident taken by our photographer, which was transported by the aircraft carrier at the fastest speed, please watch the projection ......"

Footage from the film soon appeared on the screen: first the Japanese fleet forced the Soviet fleet to stop, then both sides shouted, and then Japanese planes arrived at the scene - the only thing omitted was the image of the Japanese heavy cruiser firing.

"Please note that it is 1:17 p.m., and the two fleets are in a standoff, and at this time, your destroyers are the first to open fire......"

Then there is an image of the cannon being fired.

"And then also tried to release torpedoes to threaten our flagship ......" came the image of the Red Army destroyer adjusting its position.

"In order to defend themselves, the commander of our army was forced to give orders for self-defense." Then there is a shot of Shoji Nishimura giving the order, and then the next minute the Soviet destroyer is torpedoed and sunk by a bomber -- omitting the shot of the fighter strafing the sea.

"Then our army forcibly landed and photographed these ......"

The picture shows footage of Japanese soldiers forcing the crew to kneel and reciting the Russian version of "Lenin's Complete Works", followed by the wry smile of the American crew, and even the American sailors wailing at the camera: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, I'm an American civilian, I'm just a sailor, not a soldier, don't kill me, don't kill me, I'm an American!" ”

The bureaucrats of the Navy all knew English, and these words were heard clearly.

"According to statistics, a total of 4,197 people were intercepted, of which 4,103 were American citizens, and the remaining 94 were Soviet citizens. Your Excellency Ambassador, isn't it clear enough that a group of Americans, on American ships, and carrying a large number of arms and weapons in the Sea of Japan, arrived in the Sea of Japan? Isn't it right for us to take action? ”

"But they are all Soviet ships, American ships hired by the USSR." After the Soviet ambassador saw the film, he knew that the Japanese side was prepared, he was not at the scene, and now the fleet could not be contacted and could not be verified, so he could only explain his point of view in vain.

"Has this been reported?"

Obviously, no, the Soviet ambassador couldn't hold back his anger and said angrily: "Why do you want to report the flag of the Soviet Union? ”

"Hey, that's not right, is it?" Chiaki Matsuda, who has been watching from the sidelines, made up for it, "You don't need to check if you hang the Soviet flag?" What if tomorrow the American warship also flew the Soviet flag and touched it? ”

"It can't be." The ambassador jumped violently and immediately retorted.

"Why is it impossible, the German Navy has recently been said to borrow the ships of the Imperial Navy for exercises...... If they go to Vladivostok, will you check it? ”

Chiaki Matsuda shook his head when he heard this, but he was sure of one thing now: the military department had no idea of going to war with the Soviet Union, at most he wanted to get a handful of supplies, so he finally had the bottom in his heart, and he also felt that the situation was not as serious as he expected.

Cold sweat broke out on the Soviet ambassador's forehead, in fact, the Soviet destroyers had already rammed German submarines more than once -- although they were flying the Japanese flag, they had only exercised restraint and did not make a move, and he knew about the cooperation between the Japanese and German navies, so this sentence could not simply be regarded as a threat from the Japanese -- these little devils might really be able to do it. Thinking so, he can't lose his efforts: "Comrade Stalin confessed that if we do not give an explanation of this matter, the relations between the two countries will enter a state of war from now on." ”

As soon as they heard the word "war", everyone's brows jumped, and only Horikichi smiled casually: "Show the ambassador the map." ”

"Yes!"

After a "bang", Chiaki Matsuda took out a map of the Far East from his purse and pointed to Vladivostok, "This is the largest port in the Far East, where the Red Army has stationed more than 50,000 troops and 200 aircraft, and the Pacific Fleet of the Red Navy is stationed; The Soviet port, the second largest port in the Far East, has more than 30,000 troops and more than 100 aircraft, and the specific distribution is as follows......"

"Order......" Inoue Narumi squinted, except for Chiaki Matsuda, all the fleet staff officers who participated in the meeting stood up straight as if reflexively, "The First Fleet, the Second Fleet, and the First Fleet are all dispatched to blow up the two ports and related ancillary facilities to cover the landing of the Kwantung Army!" Formations of battleships and heavy cruisers provide cover for firing on the opposite shore! ”

"Hello!"

This reply completely ignored the instructions of the military command department, and made King Fushimi Miyahiro Gong, who was attending the meeting, tremble with anger, but he was not good at attacking.

"Wait......" The Soviet ambassador was shocked and inexplicable, and he did it after saying a few words, the Japanese were really perverted, but he remembered Comrade Stalin's instructions, "to achieve the goal, and at the same time to avoid allowing Germany to provoke a Soviet-Japanese conflict to succeed." ”

"Isn't your ambassador going to declare war, it just so happens that the foreign minister is also present, just read it directly, there are still 2 hours left from the order to the execution, which is enough for you to read it. Don't worry, although the soldiers are fast, I will not go to war without declaring it...... If you move quickly, you can avoid this......" Horikichi said lightly, "Our army has a tradition of raiding ports, Pearl Harbor, New York Harbor, Panama Port, and Port-au-Prince, and we have rich combat experience in how to attack ports, destroy facilities, and destroy enemy forces. ”

Hearing Horikichi satirize Yamamoto's undeclared war against Pearl Harbor in it, Inoue Narumi pursed her lips and disagreed, but Yamamoto himself didn't seem to hear it.

"You, you! You will pay the price......" The Soviet ambassador threw out a sentence indignantly, neither daring to walk away nor brazenly declaring war -- at least he did not dare to express his stance if he did not report these situations to Moscow, and if he really wanted to cause a dispute between the two countries, no matter what the situation would be in the future, he would certainly not be able to please him.

"Forget it, Hori-kun, don't be so angry." Yamamoto fifty-six came out to play a round, "Everyone is a soldier, be realistic, let's go straight to solve the problem." ”

Matsuda immediately continued: "Chief Yamamoto is right, our side is not at war with the Soviet Union, but the American ship is not allowed to swagger into the waters of the empire like this, otherwise how can the empire save face?" What is the face of the navy? ”

When King Fushimi Miyahiro Gong heard Matsuda's mouthful of "navy", his face turned from blue to red, then from red to purple, and finally completely blackened......
