Chapter 702: Hideki Tojo's Plan!
Hideki Tojo said in a deep voice.
Hearing him say this, Fumiro Konoe just raised his eyes to look at Hideki Tojo, while Mijiro Umezu looked at Hideki Tojo with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
What Hideki Tojo said seems to be very beautiful and perfect, but all these people present are like human spirits, so naturally they will not be deceived by Hideki Tojo!
They naturally understood in an instant that Hideki Tojo wanted to shirk his responsibilities in advance!
His remarks were very beautiful, downplaying his status as the Minister of War and causing such a big problem on the mainland, but he, the Minister of War, did not take any effective measures, and some of the faults were pushed away, but the problem was directly pushed to the result, and the problem was distributed to the whole country!
In this way, everyone will only focus on the consequences of what happened, and they will only work to save the subsequent effects, and no one will be entangled in why this happened!
After all, if someone carefully explores the reason, they will find that the problem finally evolved into this, and Hideki Tojo, the Minister of War, has a big reason!
Because of his inaction, because of his negligence!
In the back, in order to further shirk the responsibility, Hideki Tojo also directly pushed the responsibility onto the Central China Front and the already dead Shunroku Hata.
In Tojo Hideki's mouth, what he means is: Although this happened in the end because of Shunroku Hata and the Central China Front, we should not all pay attention to the Central China Front and Shunroku Hatata, and we should unite and imagine how to get through this difficult time!
The words are very beautiful, and those who don't know think that Hideki Tojo is washing the floor for Shunroku Hata.
But Umezu Mijiro clearly knows that Hideki Tojo's words seem to be whitewashing Shunroku Hata, but in fact he is pouring dirty water on Shunroku Hata!
Because the subtext of his words is that if such a big thing happens, the main responsibility is because of Shunroku Hatata!
This simply makes no sense!
After hearing this, Umezu Mijiro couldn't cry or laugh for a while, in his opinion, this Hideki Tojo was completely changing the concept and shirking responsibility!
But he didn't debunk!
After all, he can't offend Hideki Tojo because of a dead Shunroku Hatata!
Although he doesn't think much of Hideki Tojo, he doesn't even like him!
But he didn't say it so bluntly!
It's Umezu Mijiro who is also silent!
Everyone else also understood, but they were all wise not to speak, and after Hideki Tojo said this, he saw this scene and suddenly rejoiced in his heart.
What does this mean?
This shows that his idea of shirking responsibility is almost feasible!
These people, although they do not approve, are already okay as long as they do not disagree!
Thinking like this, I heard Emperor Hirohito suddenly say, "Tojo-kun, according to your thoughts, then what should we do?" ”
Hearing this, Hideki Tojo hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, at this time, it is too late for us to do anything, but no matter whether it is too late or not, what should be done is still to be done!" ”
"For example, conscription in the homeland, training of recruits and then transportation to China, and ...... In addition, let the North China and Central China Front armies stand by and wait for reinforcements, and in the short term, they must not be dispatched without authorization, so as not to fall into the treacherous tricks of the Chinese army! ”
Originally, Hideki Tojo wanted to say that some soldiers from the Kwantung Army would be transferred to reinforce North China and Central China, but seeing Umezu Mijiro sitting there safely, he still didn't dare to say this in the end!
After all, Umezu Mijiro didn't provoke him, if he let the Kwantung Army transfer troops to leave, it would be equivalent to weakening the strength of the Kwantung Army, and if he angered Umezu Mijiro, he would definitely be sad!
On the bright side, although he is the Minister of War, most of the soldiers of the Imperial Army are in China, and Umezu Mijiro, the commander of the Kwantung Army, is in charge of hundreds of thousands of imperial troops in China.
In some ways, I also need to take care of the idea of Mijiro Umezu!
Of course, these words are not enough for outsiders!
It's just that after he said this, Hirota Hongyi frowned and said: "Tojo-kun, it's not me who refutes your opinion, what you said is not useful at all!" After all, the two ideas you are talking about, as long as anyone can think of it! ”
Once a scapegoat is needed, he will inevitably choose one of the two people, Hirota Hiroki and Hideki Tojo, and if Hideki Tojo's suggestion is adopted, then he himself will be in danger!
It was Hirota Hiroki who jumped out to refute it as soon as he heard Hideki Tojo's words!
"Of course I know that anyone can come up with these suggestions! But...... Hirota-kun, I haven't finished my words yet, can you please be patient? Hideki Tojo glanced at Hiroki Hirota, and then said, "The proposal I said earlier needs to be carried out at the same time, and this is the plan to deal with it!" And then, here's the solution! ”
When he said this, Hideki Tojo said: "I'm afraid everyone here knows that once this matter gets out, the imperial side will definitely be questioned from all sides, our position will be very embarrassing, the people will not understand us, and the outside world will laugh at us!" ”
"What should we do in such a situation?" When Hideki Tojo said this, he glanced at Hirota Hiroki, but made the other party snort coldly, but he didn't speak.
Hideki Tojo sneered, then retracted his gaze and continued: "We should admit it calmly!" ”
"Nani?"
Hearing this, the others present had not yet spoken, and Hirota Hiroki, who had been waiting for Hideki Tojo to make a fool of himself, immediately spoke up, showing a look of disbelief, and questioned: "What did you say?!" ”
He pointed to Hideki Tojo and said in a deep voice, "Do you know what you're talking about?" You actually say that you admit it frankly?! Do you know how much skepticism the empire will face once it is admitted to it? How many countries will laugh at us internationally? Do you know that His Majesty and the Prime Minister will be under a lot of pressure at that time, and you will actually admit it frankly? ”
"Is this the solution you've come up with!? It's just ridiculous! Hirota Hongyi said disdainfully!
Let's not say that he had to refute Hideki Tojo's suggestion, let's just say that this suggestion is not feasible in the first place!
If you really admit it frankly, I'm afraid that the empire, especially internally, will explode directly!
