This couldn't help but remind Yamamoto of the German Führer.

At the beginning, Yamamoto was active in promoting technical cooperation with Germany, and he also met with Ribbentrop and the commander of the German Navy, Erich Raeder. With Yamamoto's direct involvement, Reinhardt personally arranged for the German company Heinkel to transfer dive bomber technology to Japan, and at that time, Reinhardt was only a young and impressive general.

Now, the Japanese Type 99 shipboard critter, which played a major role in the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, was developed based on the technology given by Reinhardt.

There is also the Zero fighter, which is a secret weapon, which is also the most successful example of cooperation with Germany in military aviation, which began with Isoroku Yamamoto.

Without the aluminum alloy technology provided by Germany, the successful development of the Zero fighter would not have been possible, and in exchange, Yamamoto also fully disclosed the technology of the Akagi aircraft carrier to Germany.

It's good to work with the Germans, it's good that the Germans reached out.

Although the help of other countries gave great impetus to the Japanese Empire, this made Yamamoto a little melancholy as a Japanese. But this is better than Germany giving technology and support to other countries.

"General Finn, when I return to Japan, I will definitely personally play the Emperor and ask for credit for you and for the German allies. You are all my Yamamoto Isoroku, my best friends in the Great Japanese Empire! ”

Some people say that the Yamato nation is a nation born with two faces. They are hypocritical when they praise someone, they will bow 90 degrees to someone and smile at someone all day, but once that person is no longer useful to them, or they think they have the ability to conquer the other person, they will not hesitate to stab them in the back.

Fein didn't know if the Japanese were really so hypocritical, and he didn't know if the words of the general in front of him were sincere, before he set off, the Führer specially summoned and explained to him, so that he had a bad impression of the country of Japan at all, but now, he also had to smile hypocritically at the other party.

"General Yamamoto." Finn was not very accustomed to being called a general, but he was more accustomed to being called a general: "As for the report to the emperor of your country, I think that from the moment the report of this battle reaches Tokyo, our officer corps, Major General Nikos, who remains in Tokyo, should hand over the notes that have been prepared in advance, through diplomatic channels, with the assistance of our master in Japan, to the emperor of your country." ”

Finn looked at Yamamoto Fifty-six with a puzzled expression, recalled Reinhardt's explanation to him before he set out, and recounted: "General Yamamoto, the Führer has made a special statement to our officer corps before, and you are also a friend of our Germany, and I want to take credit for you after this battle." ”

"Excuse me?" Yamamoto Fifty-six was a little confused, what did these people from the German officer corps want to do on this trip?

......

"I heard that in the past, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a famous general of your country, and the current General Yamamoto, who was born poor, but relied on his outstanding military exploits to ascend to the position of general. How could it be wiped out by the Tokugawa shogunate of your country, and since then, Toyotomi's surname has no one to inherit, but it's a pity! Today, General Yamamoto of your country, although he has great military achievements, he is from a family of low-level samurai, and his surname is low, which is difficult to match the identity of General Yamamoto. Today's great victory, our head of state personally telegraphed to pay attention, mentioning that it is not as good as His Majesty the Emperor of your country, and giving the surname Toyotomi to General Yamamoto, which has demonstrated His Majesty's favor to the warriors of the empire. ”

In Tokyo, when this letter, which carried the meaning of the German Führer, was delivered unimpeded to the hands of Emperor Hirohito of Japan, even Hirohito himself was surprised by the German Führer's understanding of Japanese culture.

Yamamoto is a samurai surname, which is not bad, but it is not too noble.

Therefore, if Yamamoto Fifty-six wants to become a nobleman, he has to have a higher title to settle in the aristocratic circle, first of all, he needs a tall noble surname.

Under normal circumstances, the emperor bestows such a high honor that is almost impossible to obtain. No matter how great Yamamoto's military exploits are, at least in Japan, no one will mention it.

However, the fact that the Germans, in their capacity as foreign friends, proposed that the emperor give him a surname is another concept.

At least, in the case of Germans, there are not so many taboos.

In particular, the Toyotomi surname mentioned in this letter is even more significant.

If this had been proposed by the Japanese, a bunch of people would have jumped out to oppose it.

After all, Toyotomi Hideyoshi actually belongs to the typical example of coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, if you give Toyotomi to Yamamoto Fifty-six, this is actually a taboo and shame for the Japanese royal family!

But Hirohito also understood that times had changed, Yamamoto had changed to Toyotomi, and Fifty-six could not become the second Hideyoshi. Hirohito even felt that this would motivate the low-level officers to be angry and stronger, and at the same time better win the navy's loyalty to the imperial family.

So a few days later, under the solemn announcement of the edict of the Japanese emperor, Yamamoto 56 changed his surname to Toyotomi 56. It is the Toyotomi surname that has disappeared for hundreds of years and has once again appeared on the stage of Japanese history!

It is ironic that it was a private letter between the German Führer and the German officer corps that created this historical event and shaped the history of Japanese surnames.

Why is it a private message, of course, because, the essence of this letter must be ill-intentioned!

Reinhardt instructed Lieutenant General Fein to bring this private letter, and the most fundamental purpose of saying it may have been undreamed of by Emperor Hirohito - that is, to further split the Japanese army!

The friendly and enthusiastic German Führer seemed to have prepared a means for the Japanese emperor to motivate the officers and men and win over the navy, but Reinhardt's actual purpose was to increase the contradictions between the Japanese land and sea and the ambitions of both sides.

Although Yamamoto Fifty-six should know that this is just a kind of spiritual reward for the emperor. However, his men may not necessarily think so!

You must know that the meaning of "Toyotomi surname" in Japan is really extraordinary!

Some people in the navy will think that this is a hint that they are ready to make Yamamoto prime minister, and some will even directly think that this is a hint that General Yamamoto will be allowed to establish himself as a daimyo overseas!

This will undoubtedly make the Japanese Navy very aggressive.

What's more, there may be a "56 general if he takes Hawaii, the emperor may give 56 a Hawaiian fief!" ”

General Toyotomi 56 has risen to the top, and it will not be an empty word to become the prime minister of Japan!

This will undoubtedly greatly stimulate the Japanese Army faction, you know, the current Prime Minister of Japan, Hideki Tojo, is a member of the Army faction!

When the time comes, Hideki Tojo's thoughts about worrying that his position is not secure and that the emperor is suspicious of him will follow......
