From the minister's expression and discussion, Hirohito knew that everyone was not very in favor of attacking China, and everyone had no confidence in their hearts, but Hirohito still had to pretend to be forced, and he would not easily reveal his thoughts.

Hirohito glanced at Yamamoto Fifty-six, and Yamamoto Fifty-six said: "Your Majesty, the best defense is to attack, although Anan-kun's words are a little arrogant, but the minister still believes in the strength of the army, the so-called eat a trench and grow wise, believe that we will not rush to the Soviet army, so it is really not so easy for the Chinese to attack Japan, even if they take Korea, they still have to cross the Korean Strait without a strong navy, at most their planes can bomb the empire's mainland, But we have moved people and industry to the Philippines, Indonesia and other places in large numbers, where Chinese planes are helpless. ”

"The Chinese are not stupid, I don't think they will do anything to us until we are sure of our strength, and no one wants to be there, so I think Nanjiro-kun's words are reasonable, the Chinese will not easily go to war against the empire until they have a navy that can compete with the empire."

"Ministers in the United States for many years, know the war potential of the United States, their industrial power has long been the first in the world, in order to dominate the Pacific and Atlantic, they have a strong navy, no matter in which aspect is very mature, absolutely not China's kind of country that relies on one or two advanced weapons can compare, and then look at the words since the Japanese and American incidents, the imperial navy has struggled to support, thanks to our decisive withdrawal from China, otherwise the empire may have been defeated today, so the United States is indeed the most urgent enemy to be solved by the empire at present, They can threaten the survival of the empire when they read it anytime, anywhere. ”

"We can negotiate peace with China, and then go to war, the same is true for the United States, as long as Germany is solved, they will inevitably attack us again, not to mention that at that time, of course, we will inevitably suffer heavy losses in the war with China, and the empire will be even weaker, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist at that time, so for the fate of the empire, we can only endure it for the time being."

Hideki Tojo grasped the contradiction in Yamamoto's fifty-six words, "Yamamoto-kun, just now you also said that the Imperial Navy is now struggling to support, which means that we do not have the upper hand on the sea, may I ask what we can do to cross the ocean and land in the Americas, if we can't make a plan, the American countries will definitely react and then unite to deal with the Empire, and then it will be difficult for us to go south to the Americas." ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six said calmly: "What Tojo-kun said is true, but we don't need to attack China and the Americas, if the reality is not good, we can accumulate strength and wait and see what happens, and then sit back and reap the benefits of the fisherman, anyway, after taking Australia, neither the Chinese nor the Americans can deal with us alone." ”

"Hey." Hideki Tojo said: "But now we still haven't taken Australia, if we accumulate strength, wait and see what happens, and reap the benefits of the fishermen." ”

"Tojo-kun, don't worry about this, the Americans have already loosened up, we can deceive Australia first, as long as Australia arrives, we can't force us in the reactionary war against China, why are we afraid of him."

"In addition, the idea of the people of China is really good to tell us that they do not want to do anything against us for the time being, and our forces can also be temporarily transferred to the Australian front line and go all out to take Australia, as long as we increase our military efforts, we will definitely be able to force the United States to give up the Australian ...... at the negotiating table."

Anan said without waiting for Yamamoto Fifty-six to finish speaking: "Yes, the people of China are naturally working with Germany to kill the Soviet Union at the moment, but this is not a good thing for the United States, after the fall of the Soviet Union, Germany's four or five million troops and all the forces will be transferred to Western Europe to fight a decisive battle with the United States, I am afraid that the Americans may not be able to bear it at that time, not to mention that they will have to fight against the empire in Australia, they must be short of energy, because they are probably also very hopeful to get out of the Pacific theater to deal with Germany with all their might, they are fighting on two fronts, the empire is not, So they should have come to us. ”

Nanjiro continued: "That is, as long as Australia is taken, the empire will really be invincible, but Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is better to take Australia as soon as possible, so that we can recuperate a little earlier so that we can fight again." ”

Hirohito nodded and said, "At this time, the Zhongqing family still has meaning, if not, it will be decided." ”

The crowd said: "Your Majesty is sage, and the ministers will abide by Your Majesty's holy ruling." ”

"Well, what do you think should be done about the Soviet soldiers?"

Seeing that Hirohito won the big tone, Hideki Tojo, who had just fallen behind, wanted to pull back a game, and he said: "Your Majesty, we naturally cannot admit this matter, but for the sake of one side, we still deal with it in accordance with international law, if the Chinese press hard, or Stalin deceives people too much, we still have to be prepared to hand over these people to the Shina government." ”

Hirohito nodded, he understood Hideki Tojo's words,

Hideki Tojo continued: "There is also the matter of the Indians, for the sake of future security, I think we should support the Indian Asan and help them build a strong army, and then they will inevitably be a stumbling block for the Chinese to conquer Asia, and every time the Chinese lose a point, the security of the empire will be guaranteed." ”

"I'm afraid it's not appropriate, we don't want India."

"Of course not, Your Excellency Anan, the people of China will definitely not allow us to own an inch of land on the Asian continent, didn't Songgang-kun send a message back, do the people of China want us to cede Korea after seizing South America, this is to tell us that they do not allow Japan to have territory on the Asian continent, which will threaten their security, so they will naturally not say that we occupy India, not to mention that Nehru guy is not easy to control, rather than our power being contained in India, it is better to cultivate a strong enemy for China, No matter how powerful the Indians are, they can't and can't swim across the Indian Ocean to Indonesia to trouble us. ”

"Yo Si." Anan Wei nodded with satisfaction and said: "There should still be hundreds of millions of people in India, as long as we vigorously support them, even if they can't do much, they can add a lot of blockages to the Chinese people." ”

"Well, not bad, in fact, even if Germany and China kill the Soviet Union, I am afraid that the relationship between the two countries will be very delicate at that time, and the Germans are probably not willing to hand over the huge Asia to the Chinese, as long as they have the opportunity they will definitely try their best to seize Asia, and the people of China are not stupid, they must know this, so their forces will inevitably be contained in places such as the Near East, and then the people of China will have very little power to deal with us, and the empire will naturally be safer, I think I finally understood why Britain was able to become an empire on which the sun never set, thanks to the countless protections of the English Channel. ”

"Yes, what Tojo-kun said is very true, I believe that the empire will soon become the second empire on which the sun never sets, and the last empire on which the sun never sets." Anan only had to say,

"Yamamoto, what do you mean?"

When the emperor asked, Yamamoto Fifty-six immediately said: "Your Majesty, in the general direction, we will not attack China first, and if we are not sure, we will not attack the Americas first, otherwise we will inevitably take New Zealand in order to ensure security, so we will inevitably start fighting with the United States again, this is not what we want, the empire is currently suffering heavy losses, and needs to rest for a while and replenish supplies." ”

"In addition, we should try to draw a clear line with the Soviets, lest the Chinese be too sensitive, and the Americans can negotiate and take it down, and if they can't negotiate to take it, they can only be unable to take it."

Hirohito nodded and said, "How is the war in Australia." ”

Hideki Tojo said: "Your Majesty, because the navy can't control the sea, and even is suppressed, so the U.S. Navy can continue to transport supplies to Australia, and the prosperous places in Australia are in the west, and the places we seize are all remote places, or the desolate deserts in central Australia, and the white people in Australia are also resolutely confronting the empire, the number of the United States in Australia has reached 400,000, plus the local Australian army also has 200,000, and it occupies an absolute advantage in firepower, We had to pay a heavy price if we didn't advance, so the battle had reached a stalemate, and the losses of the offensive were so heavy that we feared that we would not even have the strength to defend after that. ”

"If you concentrate all your forces and do everything at all, how many troops do you need, and how long will it take to completely take Australia."

"This ......" a military boss did not dare to face Hirohito's direct gaze, in the Australian operation, 200,000 indigenous soldiers recruited from Korea, the Philippines, and Indonesia were all wiped out, and another 200,000 Japanese casualties, they began to show fanatical requirements for the Australian front line to launch a meat bullet attack, but they found that it was just to send the results of the battle to the US army, the US army's individual firepower is so strong, equipped with a large number of submachine guns and semi-automatic rifles, as well as countless machine guns and cannons, advanced tanks, countless aircraft, There are also a large number of barbed wire, fortifications are in groups, and the Japanese army needs at least 800,000 regular Japanese troops to break through, and after taking it, I am afraid that it will lose the average Japanese army.

If it really attacks directly, Japan may not have the troops to dominate the earth in the future, and I am afraid that even the defense will be slightly insufficient, and China or the United States will definitely attack them at that time.

Now the Japanese side is fighting slowly, and then discussing how to take Australia without losing so many troops, and they are stimulated by the United States and China to speed up the development and upgrading of weapons.

Historically, it was not until 1944 that they were equipped with hundreds of faulty Baise submachine guns, at this time Japan had prepared a lot of imitation American submachine guns, of course, they did this because they mixed up a lot of American-made submachine guns and weapons and ammunition, in addition, they fought with the United States, and they could not develop good submachine guns, so they could only imitate the United States, so that the captured American submachine gun bullets can also be used,
