Chapter 041: Democratic Choice

"Your Majesty, are we close to India?"

Hirohito thought about it and then turned to ask Yamamoto Isoroku and Tojo Hideki, "What do the two Aiqing mean?" ”

Hideki Tojo couldn't make up his mind after thinking about it, and Yamamoto Fifty-six said: "If we send troops to India to occupy southern India, the Qin army may not attack us, but our behavior is tantamount to reminding the Chinese that we have territorial ambitions for them."

Hideki Tojo said: "If you really can't start a full-scale war against China, I believe we will tear off a piece of meat from them." ”

Kimura Hyotaro said: "Tojo-kun, many things in this world cannot be solved simply by fighting and killing, not to mention that we may not be the opponents of the Chinese by pure force." ”

Hirohito also thinks so, Japan's usual superiority over the Chinese comes from the strength of its own armed forces, today China can casually pull up tens of millions of soldiers, if really foreign countries hit the door, then at least 100 million soldiers are not a problem, plus the Chinese army is well-equipped, Hirohito is afraid, he has no reliable allies, the United States and other allies can read the book to kill themselves, they can't be half in China to fight out, so what can you do if you kill China, there are no soldiers to defend the fruits of victory.

Hurting China, which controls almost all of Asia, is a vast territory that has been developed so well for so long that its strategic depth is daunting from a map alone.

"What do you say? What to do? Hirohito was a little anxious, and it was the first time everyone had seen Hirohito like this.

"Your Majesty, whether we fight or not, in the end we may meet with China's soldiers, and we don't want to nest on these islands, the Eurasian continent is what we yearn for, I think we might as well vote, the minority obeys the majority."

"Yes, since no one can convince anyone, everyone has concerns, so it's better to vote!"

Seeing that Yamamoto Isoroku and Tojo Hideki both said this, Hirohito said: "Then convene a vote for the senior military and political officials in our possession this afternoon, and if we make a wrong decision, he should also bear the consequences of that for all the Japanese, and I hope that everyone will vote for their vote carefully." ”

At noon, everyone was notified, and as soon as the senior military and political officials had finished eating, they arrived at the Diet to listen to Hideki Tojo's report, and then everyone made a decision together, and of course they had two hours to consider.

A group of Japanese military and political dignitaries chirped crookedly to discuss whether to send troops to India while India was not destroyed, and then help the Indians with the slogan, and then exterminate the Indians.

Soon two hours passed, and Hideki Tojo said, "Gentlemen, let's start voting in front of the emperor!" ”

Soon they filled out the form on the table, which was actually very simple, just tick or cross the box on agree or disagree, and then there was an hour of counting time, and there was nothing to cheat on this, so the votes were right.

In the end, Tojo Hideki said: "There are 200 people who voted this time, and the number of votes is correct," and then Tojo has already ordered someone to bring a blackboard, and he wrote on the blackboard with chalk to agree and disagree, and then said: "For each one who agrees, write a drawing on the blackboard, five is a straight word, let's start!" ”

The maid in the court took the list and reported: "Hideki Tojo agrees." In between, another maid wrote a horizontal line on the blackboard.

"Hyotaro Kimura agreed," another maid concocted according to the law......

Soon the results were counted, this time it was a real-name form to fill in, no one was changed, and in the end, 185 out of 200 people agreed, another 10 abstained, and 5 opposed.

Hirohito finally clapped his hands and said, "In that case, then let's do it!" ”

The voices of the ministers resounded in the lobby of "Hai ......".

After the meeting ended, the others went their separate ways, and Yamamoto Fifty-six walked up to Minamijiro and said, "Nanjiro-kun, why did you abstain?" ”

Nanjiro said: "This matter is very important, I haven't thought about it for a long time, it seems that we can't fight, we don't fight, I really don't know what to do, why can't I think of a perfect solution?" ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six comforted: "The matter has come to this, the plan is in the people, and the success is in the sky, and the rest is left to fate!" ”

Minamijiro said, "Yamamoto-kun, I remember that you also voted in favor. ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six understood the meaning of Nanjiro's words, and he said: "Since that day is coming, it is better to take this opportunity to gamble, at least the Americans are our reliance for a long time, and we will talk about it later, anyway, I know that if the allies are killed, the difference between our national strength and the Chinese is huge, and we have almost no chance of winning, so it is better to start a war now." ”

Nanjiro nodded and said, "I see, I hope that God Amaterasu will bless the Great Japanese Empire for a long time." ”

According to the instructions of the Japanese government, Yamashita Fumimi quickly found Nehru, of course, they did not say it directly, she still hoped that Nehru would beg him, so that many things would be much easier.

"Mr. President, your army is losing too quickly, isn't it?"

Nehru said: "I don't want to, besides, the army is trained by you, I used to think it was very powerful, but now I finally know what they are." ”

Nehru's words clearly mean that the Japanese are no longer good, and Yamashita Fengfumi can't hold his face, but these words can also help him to draw out those words.

"Why, Mr. President is still angry that we don't help you resist the Qin army?"

Nehru said: "What do I have to be angry about, you are not Indians, and we can't give you any benefits, why should you help us resist the Chinese?" ”

Yamashita Fengwen smiled and said: "Oh, Mr. President, I can see that you are indeed angry, otherwise, you first send the families of the officers to Ceylon Island, and we will provide them with protection, I still do this, after all, I am the highest defense officer there." ”

"No, the Americans have already agreed to help us settle our families."

Yamashita Fengwen was not surprised, he said: "That feeling is good, it would be best if the Americans were willing to help, but the number of your officials is also quite large, and it is not realistic to go to the United States all at once, besides, the United States is not safe, the Chinese have hit the mainland of the United States, and our country is much safer, and besides, it is very important to send people to Ceylon, we can use planes, just a few hours." ”

Nehru thought about it, because he was the president, he was embarrassed to send his family away, so as not to shake the morale of the army, but if he put his family on Ceylon Island, he would have less worry and could serve India wholeheartedly.

"Really, there are quite a few families of our officers, I'm afraid there are tens of thousands."

Yamashita Fengwen said: "It doesn't matter, in fact, we ourselves are very willing to help you, if India really falls, then they will rely on you to seize the island of Ceylon at any time, but unfortunately we don't agree at home." ”

As soon as Nehru heard Yamashita Fengwen's words, he knew that there was a play, and he said: "General Yamashita, it's better to be like this, aren't you the defense officer of Ceylon, there are more than 300,000 troops on it, it is better for you to send them to India to assist us, as long as it creates a fait accompli, your country will fully support you." ”

Yamashita Fengwen pretended to look at Nehru in surprise, and then said: "Mr. President, you can also think of this method, your siege may be solved, but I don't know what is waiting for me." ”

Nehru said embarrassedly: "Mr. Yamashita, this is what your army did in Manchuria back then, and today it is just another time, as long as there is benefit, your government will definitely not blame you." ”

Yamashita Fengwen said: "I'm sorry, I really don't see any benefits for us, what I see is all disadvantages, and after offending the Chinese, it may be a big war between you and me." ”

Nehru said: "That's not the case, if you fight China now, the Americans will definitely send you a lot of new technologies, so that you can improve Japan's scientific research capabilities, and there are helpers in you if you don't kill your mortal enemies, do you want to wait for them to be defeated, and then face the threat of the Chinese alone, and then be completely eliminated, and the country will be wiped out?" ”

Yamashita Fengwen said: "You also have some truth in saying that today's China is not worse than ours in all aspects, and they surpass us in terms of population, territory, resources, etc., if the United States and other countries perish, the Chinese will really attack us, whether it is revenge or plundering territory, they will definitely not let us go." ”

"That's it," Nehru said when he saw that Yamashita was inclined to them, and once he spared no effort to cooperate with him.

Yamashita said, "Maybe I can really do this, and for the sake of Japan's future, even if I take on any responsibility, I will do my best." ”

"Mr. Yamashita, you are a friend of the Indian people, and the Indian people will not forget your great kindness."

Yamashita said, "Don't thank me, I weave stories for the sake of Japan's national interests." ”

Yamashita Fengwen said: "When we kill China and then destroy you, see if you still thank me." ”

The two then discussed some details, and finally reached a secret agreement, Yamashita Fumimi secretly sent troops, and the Indians handed over the vital points of transportation and important care to the Japanese soldiers, so that these places could perform important tasks and make these places play their role to the fullest.

At this time, Nehru agreed without even thinking about it, not that he wanted to agree, but that his millions of troops were not angry, otherwise he would not have to promise Japan, and now he could only let the Japanese go.

The speed of Yamashita Fengwen was very fast, so fast that Nehru was shocked, he suspected that Yamashita Fengwen had already been prepared, but there was no way now, the Indian army was defeated for hundreds of miles, it was better than a pig, at least the pig would forage in situ, stay there, and don't want the Indians, and run away without a trace.
