Chapter 220: The Lord

This chapter is subtitled: A Sense of Modernity and Identity

"I am Nomura Kichizaburo, the First Class Military Attache of the Imperial Japanese Empire in the United States."

He said in a smug manner: "Mr. Yuan, Your Excellency's name is like thunder, how can you be lucky to see it today?" ”

Yuan Yanqian said a little perfunctorily: "Mr. Nomura, that long-admired ......"

"Master Ball, I don't know this guy very well, hello and start searching!"

"Host, understood."

Skimming at the information hastily, our Master Yuan said in a much more dignified tone: "...... Look up for a long time! ”

This "not very familiar" guy is really worthy of Master Yuan's "long-term admiration", it's not that this gentleman has good data in "Admiral Decision", he hasn't appeared in this game at all.

Rather, it is because Kichizaburo Nomura is an important supporting role in the history of the Pacific War, which can be called a combination of the unlucky and the lucky.

In 1932, during the Battle of Songhu, he served as the commander of the Third Fleet, which was certainly a good thing for him. Later, when Neon Kim held a celebration ceremony in Hongkou Park (now Lu Xun Park), he was blinded in one eye by a BOOM thrown by North Korean patriot Yoon Bong-gil.

He was promoted to admiral the following year, in 1933, reaching his highest peak as a navyman.

In 1937, Nomura retired from active duty and was transferred to the reserve, beginning his career as a career politician and diplomat. In 1940, when relations between the United States and Japan deteriorated, he was appointed ambassador to the United States.

The reason why he was able to occupy this key position at such a critical time was that during his time as naval attachΓ© in the United States, that is, around 1920, he traveled extensively, and formed a deep friendship with FDR, then the deputy secretary of the Navy of the United States and the savior of the free world. Americans in 1941 called "the kind-hearted, sincere, and untreacherous General Kichizaburo Nomura."

In December 1941, the "kind-hearted, sincere, and untreacherous" ambassador to the United States had the bad fortune to encounter Pearl Harbor and the unfortunate "14-paragraph telegram."

The so-called "14-paragraph telegram" is the famous Japanese declaration of war against the United States. The telegram was 14 paragraphs long, hence the name. The Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Japanese Embassy in the United States made frequent mistakes, and even procrastinated in issuing a declaration of war. By the time Nomura's declaration of war was handed over to U.S. Secretary of State Hurley, the Japanese air raid on Pearl Harbor had begun 50 minutes into it.

Hurley's words, "This is what I have never seen in my fifty years in office such a despicable government and such a hypocritical and distorted document!" It was said to him.

These two unfortunate events were naturally followed by Japan's surrender, and he was included in the list of war criminals provided by the Chinese side because he was a senior commander during the Battle of Songhu.

And the so-called thing is not three nos, because one of Nomura Kichizaburo's American friends back then was actually MacArthur's cousin Malcolm Hardy. Mr. Hardy wrote a letter of plea for him. The Emperor of Japan released him after reading the letter.

After the war, he was also hired by Konosuke Matsushita, the "god of management", as the first president of the Japanese Victory Corporation (JVC), the inventor of the VHS video tape in the 70s.

Nomura Kichizaburo's experience has broken Yuan Yanqi's two major "prejudices":

Are the Japanese meticulous in their words?

What about the Americans who say that they rule the country according to the law?

The two exchanged pleasantries warmly, and then came the third and final Neon Gold.

This gentleman said in not very good English: "Hello Mr. Yuan, I am the second-class military attache of the Japanese Empire in the United States......"

Shandandan is blooming red and gorgeous, Lao Tzu finally met a World War II celebrity...... Yes...... Yo!

To tell the truth, he has met many famous figures in history since he crossed over, including big celebrities who are known to women and children in later generations, and even big people who have had a profound impact on history. But none of them could match the ...... of the man in front of them Well, a special feeling.

That's right, it's a sense of the times!

As a traverser, he often has a feeling of emptiness. When she dreams back at midnight, Yuan Yanqian always thinks about what she is doing when she walks through?

Because of the limitations of the master ball, he can't do this or that, he can only copy books and pretend to be forced. If he doesn't copy these books, someone will write them, and those who force him not to pretend to be ...... If you don't pretend, don't pretend.

But seeing this little man with two fingers missing from his left hand, our Master Yuan finally confirmed that he had come to a magnificent era! I have become a part of this big time! And he will eventually change the course of human history!

"Yamamoto fifty-six."

"Master Ball, do you mean playing "March of the Warships"?"

"Host, isn't this song very much in line with your current state of mind?"

"Master Ball, don't make a fuss. There is one thing you can help me refer to in detail, this forces me to pretend? ”

"Host, are you forced to pretend? It's too unexpected for this system.,What kind of force? ”

"Master ball, that's the kind of force. I looked at him without a mouth, without a heart, and with no expression, and then went through the other party's resume. Like: Yamamoto fifty-six. Formerly known as Isoroku Takano, he was born on April 4, 1884 (what a good day) in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture......"

"Host, you're pretending to be good, and you're definitely going to be able to startle these three. But...... They found out that you, a Chinese, even knew the detailed resume of a small Zhongzuo so clearly, would they think that you were a high-ranking agent of the Republic of China and cursed you? ”

"Master Ball, this sentence won my heart. It's okay if you can't pretend to be this! Then I'll change it. ”

"Mr. Yamamoto, it's a good thing." Master Yuan made a look of contemplation, and after a while, he suddenly said, "That's right, Mr. Yamamoto. Are you the 'Japanese fugitive' from Harvard? ”

The three neon gold were stunned when they heard this, and after looking at each other, they understood what this Chinese was talking about. At this time, even the "Japanese fugitive" Yamamoto 56 himself couldn't help but laugh a little embarrassedly.

"Hahaha, yes, that's right. Yamamoto-kun is indeed a Japanese fugitive! ”

"Hahaha, I didn't expect Mr. Yuan to know about this!"

"Hahaha, Mr. Yuan, how did you know about me?"

Yuan Yanqian also smiled and said: "This is also what I heard from my friends at Harvard University......"

Yamamoto was already aware of the importance of oil to the war effort, so he studied energy at Harvard.

In the middle of this year, he hoped to visit the oil fields of Mexico, a neighboring country of the United States, so he applied to the Japanese consulate in the United States for an expedition fund. The consulate in the United States felt that Yamamoto's application was ridiculous and ridiculous, so it naturally rejected his request.

However, he still decided to go to Mexico at his own expense. Due to the shortage of funds, Yamamoto Nakasa's expedition life can be said to be in tatters, and his shabby life makes it difficult to imagine that this guy is actually a naval officer of the great power Japan.

As we all know, Mexico has always been a high-crime country, and Yamamoto's bizarre behavior seriously does not fit his status as a naval officer, which naturally attracted the attention of the Mexican police.

Therefore, Mexico sent a telegram of investigation to the Japanese embassy and Harvard University: This Yamamoto Isoroku, who claimed to be a lieutenant of the Japanese Navy and a student of Harvard University, had come to Mexico to inspect the oil fields. But he lived only in the attic of the cheapest hotel, fed his hunger on bananas and raw water every day, and dressed in a sloppy manner. Please help your country/school to verify whether this Yamamoto Isoroku is a Japanese fugitive?

Our Master Yuan smiled on his face, but he was chilling in his heart, these "Showa boys" are really ......

It's strange, for Mao and me, an upright Chinese, actually have a sense of identity with them?
