The outside world is also full of questions about China's attack on the Soviet Union, it is said that the Soviet Union has returned its territory, and the two sides have not reached a tacit understanding.

However, when it comes to questions, the Allied newspapers are accusing the Chinese government of treachery on the one hand, and sending reporters in China to find out the reasons for China's attack, which is extremely valuable news.

At around 8 o'clock on July 4, a large group of journalists from various countries stood at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, ready to ask questions.

Japan also received the news of China's attack on the Soviet Union at the same time, a group of Japanese ministers with tears on their faces, sacrificed so much, and finally waited for this day, Yamamoto Fifty-six was also full of excitement after learning the news, China's war against the Soviet Union showed that his original decision was wise,

He has always been criticized, criticized constantly, and even many people think that he is a Japanese traitor, that kind of suffering only he understands, today China is declaring war on the Soviet Union, this is definitely a war to the death, two tigers must fight each other with one injury or one death and one injury, then is the best time for Japan to profit from it,

Yamamoto Isoroku immediately met with Hirohito, and Hirohito also convened the top of the Japanese military department to discuss the matter and the future battle plan.

Hirohito couldn't hide the joy in his heart at the moment, and he said excitedly: "Zhuqing, the people of China have finally started a war against polar bears, and the empire has finally waited for this day." ”

Japan's bigwigs in the Song Army also couldn't hide their inner excitement, and they turned their heads one by one.

"Yamamoto, when will the war in Australia end?" Hirohito believes that now Japan needs to end the war in Australia as soon as possible, of course, on the premise of taking Australia,

Only by taking Australia and ruling the Americanized Pacific can we fundamentally ensure the security of Japan's eastern front and Japan's interests in the western Pacific.

Only by taking Australia can Japan devote itself to the battle of attacking the Chinese League, otherwise it is very likely that if the Chinese League is not defeated, the United States will stab the knife in the back.

"Your Majesty, the war in Australia is currently in a stalemate, we have already taken half of Australia, and the supply of materials is normal, but things on land depend on the army." Yamamoto Fifty-six is a smart man, he won't be able to carry it if the army doesn't give it its strength, not to mention the battle plan, it's not him who commands at the front, and he can't carry it.

As the prime minister, Hideki Tojo and the people of the War Department were very dissatisfied with this, when the army took down so many places, all of them were buried by Yamamoto fifty-six, and now Australia has only been fighting for a long time, and if they can't take it, the people of the navy will put the responsibility on the army.

"Although His Majesty's army is desperately attacking, but the weapons and equipment of the allies are far superior to ours, if the navy can cut off the supply of the allies, we will be able to take Australia in less than 2 months."

Hirohito nodded, he also knew the difficulties of the army, and there was a huge difference with the US military in weapons, but because Japan's national strength was limited and its resources were limited, there was really no way to compare with the United States in terms of armament.

However, Hirohito naturally does not blame himself for these problems, Japan's strength is there, and he is not here to listen to complaints at the meeting today, but to listen to the solution to the problem.

Hirohito looked at Yamamoto Fifty-six, the meaning is very clear, how are you going to solve the problem,

Yamamoto Fifty-six said respectfully: "Your Majesty, our navy is very weak compared to the United States, the Americans now have 10 aircraft carrier formations in the South Pacific, their industrial capacity is very terrifying, since the start of the war, all the shipyards are building ships, frankly to destroy their fleet, we can't do it, we have missed the best opportunity, the Americans' war machine has all started." ”

The people of the navy bowed their heads at this time, in the Asian continent they did give up the results of countless bloody battles of the army, and now Japan's naval strength is not weak on the earth, but the dream alliance is still weak in comparison, and the allies rely on the strong industrial production capacity of the United States, and the warships are constantly replenishing the navy, while Japan is unable to make ends meet.

Hideki Tojo took the opportunity to attack, "Yamamoto-kun, now that the empire is in a dilemma, and the interests of China have been abandoned by you, if China solves the Soviet Union, then their west will be safe, and Germany will not make a move against China without defeating Britain and the United States, how can you guarantee that China will not do anything to us at that time." ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six said to Hirohito quietly: "Your Majesty, there are no eternal friends between the so-called countries, only eternal interests, we were the Axis powers, the Soviet Union was the Allied powers, and we have not signed a non-aggression pact, and now we can do the same." ”

Hirohito didn't react, "Yamamoto Qing, I said this." ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the feud between the empire and China cannot be resolved, just like the hatred between China and the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union, whether it was the predecessor or later, has repeatedly killed China, killed people and oversold goods, and seized millions of square kilometers of territory in China, and it will not be resolved because of the return of the territory, not to mention that the Slavs' temperament is known to the whole world, so I judged that as long as the empire tolerates one step, China will definitely take revenge." ”

Hirohito and the people in the navy nodded after hearing this, and the people in the army were quite disdainful, thinking that Yamamoto fifty-six had come to show off again,

Yamamoto continued: "Whether it is the First Sino-Japanese Incident of that year or the Sino-Japanese War a few years ago, the Imperial Army has done a lot of uncivilized things, and the people of China will never forget it, so they will inevitably find an opportunity to retaliate, especially if they dare to go to war with the Soviet Union. ”

Hideki Tojo said: "If we hadn't withdrawn our troops back then, we wouldn't have what we have today." ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six smiled slightly: "Tojo-kun's words are wrong, if the troops were not withdrawn back then, the empire would be even worse today, according to our intelligence, the current weapons and equipment of China are better than ours, their individual soldiers have prepared a large number of rifles like submachine guns, called assault rifles, and a rocket launcher that can be operated by one person, in addition to rocket artillery that only the Soviet Union and Germany have, and it is the size of several divisions, and these are more and more, and the aircraft is also imitating the most advanced aircraft in the United States, If we hadn't withdrawn our troops in the first place, I'm afraid that the Empire's land forces would be running out today, and maybe they and the United States would be landing on the Empire's mainland by now. ”

Hideki Tojo said dissatisfiedly: "Even so, at least Shina will turn into a scorched earth." ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six waved his hand and said, "Tojo-kun, if we know that it will be the end of the empire, why do we do that......

Before Yamamoto Fifty-six could finish speaking, Hideki Tojo said unceremoniously: "Then today, Shina has not turned into scorched earth, and they are not the same as they want to destroy us." ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six said confidently: "I don't think so. A cadre looked at Yamamoto Fifty-six, wanting to hear what he said,

Yamamoto Fifty-six said: "Actually, it's very simple, now that the end of the Soviet Union is imminent, it can almost be a sure thing, if the Soviet Union perishes, China can certainly attack the empire, but at that time does the United States still have the energy to attack us in the Pacific, the answer is no, they are afraid that they pray every day that the Germans will not hit the Americas." ”

"You mean." Known as the Japanese soldier's Ishihara Wanerdo,

Yamamoto Fifty-six said: "It's very simple, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, if the empire falls, then the United States will have to deal with the joint attack of Germany and China, I believe that the United States does not have that ability, I am afraid that the United States will collapse on its own before the time comes, so in fact, Australia's affairs can be resolved at the negotiating table." ”

"The United States gives Australia to the Empire, everyone divides the Pacific Ocean to rule, they defend Germany, the Empire can defend China, everyone has a safe backup, and they can concentrate on dealing with the immediate threat, so why not."

"What if the United States doesn't believe it?" Hideki Tojo asked again,

"Tojo-kun, the contradiction between the United States and Japan can be resolved, but the contradiction between the empire and China can only be resolved by war, and the Americans are not stupid, if the empire gets Australia and has to fight the Americas, then the empire will not only have to fight against the huge China, but also have a conflict of interest with Germany that unites Europe, and then we may have to fight against the two major forces alone, who will be stupid to that extent, if neither side infringes on anyone's interests, then one country will be in trouble, and the other country can secretly support it, isn't it better."

"The current situation is to maintain a balanced state, so that everyone can survive, if there are only two superpowers in the world, then the war will inevitably break out again, and then there will only be one country left to rule the world, frankly, I don't think it's Japan, because our population is so small, not only other people of color don't obey us, but even the yellow people in Asia don't obey us."

"Smack", Hideki Tojo stood up and said angrily: "Yamamoto-kun pay attention to your words, don't you look down on the Yamato nation." ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six immediately confessed to Hirohito: "Your Majesty, the minister definitely didn't mean that, what he meant was that the empire should adopt a conservative approach to this point, and should not gamble on the future of the Yamato nation, if we can reach an agreement with the United States, then for the United States, Germany is their biggest threat, and the empire is second, they will not provoke us until Germany is defeated, and take advantage of this gap, we can start a war against China, if we can solve the best of China, In addition, China fought against the Soviet Union, and when Germany was defeated, then the Russians would be our allies, and the Americans did not want a strong opponent, and the whites in Europe would definitely not give up the opportunity to get a piece of the pie, plus China was to help the Germans, and they would become slaves if the Germans won the victory. ”

After Yamamoto Fifty-six said this, everyone seemed to suddenly understand that although the situation was dangerous, as long as they were careful, Japan would not only not have the disaster of losing the country, but would even be able to profit from it.

Yamamoto Fifty-six saw that everyone's faces softened a lot, and he said: "Your Majesty, the difference between heaven and hell is one step, and the future of the empire depends on this time." ”

Hideki Tojo thought about it, this method is still feasible to think like this, Hirohito looked at the others, no one spoke, he looked at Hideki Tojo,

Hideki Tojo said: "Your Majesty, if you can fight without blood, Australia, I will naturally support it." ”

Hirohito himself agreed with this plan, and Hirohito said: "Then you can arrange this matter." ”

"Hay."
