… Without much handing over Chiang Kai-shek, he began to make the original judgment of the firm room again, and Japan was confused!

In mid-October, the Soviet army began to retreat on a large scale, and the Japanese army seized the fighter planes to continue to attack, and the Soviet army was weak. It was never possible to form a tight line of defense. It was flanked by the Japanese army and finally withdrew from the Outer Khingan Mountains.

After the Japanese army occupied the Outer Khing'an Mountains, the strategic intention was immediately exposed, and they stopped at the Outer Khing'an Mountains, recruited a large number of laborers, and built fortifications in the Outer Khing'an Mountains.

When Stalin got this information, he said coldly. The Soviet troops in the Far East were ordered not to take the initiative to attack the Japanese army, and fortifications were built on the spot, and a steady stream of troops transferred back from Central Asia were driven to Moscow.

By the end of October, the Soviet-Japanese war that shocked the world was as if it had never happened, and the snow drifting from Siberia covered the artillery fire, gunsmoke, bloodstains, and corpses, leaving only the white land again.

The Japanese army won a complete victory in the Far East Campaign, and the Tokyo base camp issued a battle report, which annihilated 600,000 Soviet troops and destroyed 630 tanks in the Far East Campaign. Seven destroyers, two cruisers, one battleship, one battleship were sunk, one battleship was captured, four destroyers were captured. Three hundred and thirty planes were shot down.

The whole country of Japan rejoiced, and the citizens of Tokyo held a grand ceremony to congratulate the victory in Hibiya Park, and Hideki Tojo made a strong-worded speech at the meeting, demanding that Soviet Russia and China immediately surrender to Germany, Japan and Italy, otherwise they would be punished more severely by the Imperial Army. People from all over the world hold lantern parades, children wave national flags and run through the countryside, and the sound of banzai resounds through the cities and countryside of Japan.

Behind the scenes, however, Japan's political circles are becoming more and more worried, and the United States is taking an increasingly hardline attitude, demanding that Japan withdraw its troops not only from China and Indochina, but also from Soviet Russia, otherwise the United States will impose even more severe economic sanctions. In order to ease the attitude of the United States, the Japanese Government sent Rasu, who had a personal relationship with Roosevelt, as a special envoy to Washington in early October to negotiate with the United States.

On the day of his arrival in the United States, US Secretary of State Hull made a tough speech, saying that Japan was an obstacle to peace in East Asia and that Japan must stop its aggression, otherwise the embargo on oil and other strategic materials would not be lifted.

Ten thousand corpses

The successful defeat of the Soviet Far East troops and the annihilation of its Pacific Fleet raised the morale of the Japanese army and the confidence of the Japanese generals to the sky. The toughness of the United States made the Japanese generals angry, and the call for the navy to go south was even louder.

A group of young officers surrounded Navy Minister Shigetaro Shimada and Navy Commander Nagano all day long, and demanded that they go south to attack the United States and Britain.

"Now 10,000 tons of oil are consumed every day, and if you don't get any more oil sources, the navy will be finished!" "The United States has gone too far! Only war! Defeat the United States once and for all! Chief, let's make up our minds! ”

"What are you waiting for? The economic blockade imposed by the United States is a declaration of war! ””

Not to be outdone, the young generals of the General Staff and the Ministry of the War surrounded Tojo and Motoyama, who had to be cautious as prime minister, while Motoyama made it clear that he supported him.

But Tojo was still hesitating, Japan was now at war with two countries far larger than him, and if it was at war with the United States, would Japan's national strength be able to support it? During the Soviet-Japanese War, China's counteroffensive in Hubei proved that the combat effectiveness of the squadron had risen greatly, and the Chinese battlefield must increase its troops, otherwise the situation will further deteriorate.

While Tojo was hesitating, the young officers of the army and navy began to connect privately, and they held a liaison meeting with Tojo and Nagano Shusei behind their backs, and adopted the "Outline for the Implementation of the Imperial National Policy", which clearly stated that November 30 was the deadline, and if no agreement was reached on this day, then war would be declared categorically.

In the face of the young officers of the army and navy who are seeking to fight. Neither Tojo nor Nagano dared to suppress them strongly, these people were the backbone of the army and navy officers, and Tojo decided to submit the matter to the Imperial Council for the Emperor's decision.

At the Imperial Council, Tojo reported to Hirohito in detail on the current domestic and international situation, making it clear that Japan could not withdraw its troops from China and Soviet Russia, and that there were only three months left in the country's oil reserves. However, the attitude of the United States has not eased in the slightest, and it still insists on the complete withdrawal of troops from China and Soviet Russia.

The war against Soviet Russia was won so easily. Hirohito was very excited, and he easily picked up the outline for the implementation of the imperial national policy: "According to this document, war should be declared at the end of November, why are you still arguing now?" ”

"There are two main reasons, on the army side, the Soviet-Russian campaign has just ended, and the troops need to be corrected before entering the battle; The navy felt that there was a shortage of aircraft and demanded an increase in the share of aircraft and steel; In addition, the negotiations between Japan and the United States are ongoing, and until there is no clear desperation in the negotiations, it is still necessary to strive for a negotiated solution to the conflict between the two countries. Tojo replied respectfully.

"And what about your opinion as Prime Minister?" Hirohito's tone was calm, but the question was to the point.

"The Navy believes that after December, the situation at sea will become complicated and the operation will become very difficult, so the minister believes that in early December, the negotiations will not yet see results. Then declare war categorically. Tojo said.

"There are brothers in the four seas, but the disputes will not be extinguished." Hirohito was silent for a moment. Then chant out his ancestors

Tojo and the others suddenly felt a shock in their hearts, of course they knew the origin of this poem, it was at the Imperial Council that Emperor Meiji had originally written this poem through the Imperial Council that declared war with the Kiyo, and the last time Hirohito chanted this sentence was at the Imperial Council through the reinforcement of troops to Shina.

"The emperor is slapping ventriloquism, showing his attitude." Tojo muttered inwardly. He looked left and right. The Minister of War in charge all showed a look of joy, and only Foreign Minister Togo and Minister of the Navy Shimada looked serious.

Shortly after the end of the Imperial Council, in Baoshan, far western Yunnan, China, a string of cars and jeeps stopped in front of the guest house of the Western Yunnan Administrative Office. "Your room, Commissioner Li has already arranged it for everyone, everyone go back to wash up, rest for one night, and we will have a meeting tomorrow." With Zhuang Jihua's order, the soldiers all dispersed, and before they could walk away, Zhuang Jihua added: "You are not allowed to go out, Brother Anding, there is a post outside the guest house, and no one is allowed to go out without permission." ”

This order provoked a low complaint, but when Zhuang Jihua's gaze swept over, the complaint suddenly disappeared, and the officers quickly disappeared into the room.

Li Anding shook his head lightly in his heart, Zhuang Jihua is still like that, he is easy-going, but he does not lose his majesty, he was a captain in Guangzhou, and now he is still like this. However, he also dismissed the plan to invite Zhuang Jihua to his home as a guest, since Zhuang Jihua gave this order, he would definitely not go out.

Li Anding prepared a single room for Zhuang Jihua, and he took Zhuang Jihua to the room. After Song Yunfei and Wu Ziniu entered the house, they looked around, this time Zhuang Jihua went to Myanmar, only brought Wu Ziniu, and the palace embroidery painting was left in Guiyang. After arriving in western Yunnan, more than 20 people were transferred from Song Yunfei's special forces to serve as bodyguards, led by Song Yunfei himself.

"It doesn't have to be like this. Valium has been checked a long time ago. Zhuang Jihua shook his head slightly. Greeted the two of them: "Sit down, you have worked hard enough for more than a month, and there is nothing to worry about when you go to your own nest." ”

"Commissioner Li, don't be careful" Wu Ziniu glanced at Li Anding, poured two glasses of water and brought them to Zhuang Jihua and Li Anding: "Get used to it." Don't do it again. I always feel empty in my heart, Commander, you drink tea, I'll go see the food, mother. These days, in Myanmar, the beaks are faint and the birds are coming. ”

Zhuang Jihua led a team to Burma to investigate, this walk secretly went, the whole team disguised as a businessman, divided into three routes, as far as Yangon, mainly to investigate the terrain and road traffic conditions in Burma, as well as the situation of the British army. Myanmar is a Buddhist country. Almost everyone believes in Buddhism, the country is full of monasteries, and monks are the most respected profession.

Burmese people are very hospitable and have a special affection for the Chinese, and they will be warmly welcomed when they walk into every cottage, but Zhuang Jihua also found that Myanmar still retains many customs that can be said to be very feudal, and some places can be said to be still in slavery.

During his month in Burma, Zhuang Jihua felt the strongest anti-British sentiment among the Burmese people, and every time the British were mentioned, the Burmese were Shan, Karen, Mon or Kachin. all showed strong hatred, which made Zhuang Jihua very uneasy in his heart. I'm worried that when the time comes, they will not even fight against the ** team.

What Zhuang Jihua is most unaccustomed to is not the humid climate of Myanmar, but the diet of Myanmar. Before going out, they thought that Myanmar was close to Yunnan, and the taste of Yunnan was almost the same, but when they arrived, they knew that things were almost the same, but a few flavors were thousands of miles away, they didn't know what it was in their meals, the taste was sweet, and it exuded a smell that I didn't know what it was, it smelled uncomfortable, it was difficult to swallow, and even Zhuang Jihua, a person who traveled all over the world, didn't know what it was.

"Okay, let them put more spicy food." Zhuang Jihua said casually.

Wu Ziniu agreed and went out, Song Yunfei also wanted to go out, but Zhuang Jihua asked him to stay, Song Yunfei was assigned to western Yunnan by him for more than a year, he successfully trained a special force good at jungle warfare in western Yunnan, and what they summed up has formed a jungle warfare manual, which was issued to all company-level troops stationed in western Yunnan. "What's wrong? Brother Anding, do you have any ideas? Zhuang Jihua looked a little uneasy when he saw Li Anding, and asked with some strangeness in his heart.

"During the Cultural Revolution, the preparation for the Burma war was based on the fact that the little devils would go south. But now that they have gone north, will they still go south? If we don't go south, we'll be in vain. Li Anding thought and said.

Zhuang Jihua smiled bitterly in his heart. Now he was not sure whether the Japanese would still go south as they had done in history, and he hesitated and said, "It should be, the US oil blockade will not be resolved." The Japanese had to go south, otherwise he would go from there to get oil? ”

There are a lot of things going on today, and I haven't had time to code words, and it only started in the evening. Finally kicked out.
