Chapter 253: Hirohito's Ambition Is Gradually Expanding!
The glorious results of the Japanese army in the Southeast Asian theater turned the whole of Japan into a sea of joy and boiling.
Slogans such as "Long live the Emperor," "Long live the Great Japanese Empire," "Long live the Imperial Japan," "Long live the Imperial Army," and "Long live the common prosperity of Greater East Asia" resounded in every corner of all the cities on the four major islands of Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu for three days.
Every day, thousands of young men and women and soldiers in the countryside go to various recruitment registration points to support the Holy War of Common Prosperity in Greater East Asia launched by the Empire with practical actions.
Such a grand occasion was unprecedented, and even the occupation of Manchuria by the Empire was not as good as in case.
The Great Japanese Empire was finally able to snatch the colonies that had always been part of the European and American spheres of influence from the hands of the white ghost animals!
This is the supreme glory and pride of all the yellow people in Asia!
As the emperor of Japan, Hirohito was originally celebrated like all his subjects. However, in the past three days, he did not feel a trace of happiness in the palace, but was preoccupied, sighing endlessly all day long.
It's all to blame for that damn "Operation Plan Zero"!
Bagaya Road! Bagaya Road!
Okamura Ninji is really a baga! Why did you report this battle plan to me?! Will you die if you don't report and ask for instructions?!
Damn, Huaxia is such a big piece of fertile soil, you don't want it!
I dreamed of moving the palace to the Forbidden City in Beiping!
I don't want this barren island under my feet that is ravaged by natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, typhoons, torrential rains, and mudslides!
If you Imperial soldiers really have the ability, then hurry up and build a fertile continent for me so that I can move the capital!
For the Imperial Army to revisit the Chinese strategy, Hirohito has actually been mentally prepared for a long time.
It's just that if there is no nod or acquiescence from Cheng Gong, Hirohito will never easily approve the Ministry of War to send another soldier to Huaxia.
The brilliant achievements of the Great Japanese Empire today are largely inseparable from Cheng Gong, the founding emperor of the Great Donghua Empire!
Judging from Cheng Gong's caring attitude towards the Chinese living in Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Malaya, the East Indies, and Burma, Hirohito can also imagine with his heels that as long as Japan restarts the war in China, Cheng Gong will intervene 100% of the time.
Hirohito can clearly feel that Cheng Gong is a militant with a strong Chinese nationalist complex and pursuing nationalism.
This guy keeps saying that he wants peace and stability, but in fact, he is the world's biggest warmonger in his bones!
He used Japan and Germany to take all of Oceania from the British, and then used Germany and Japan to wage war with the Allied powers led by Britain and France, while he stayed in Oceania and watched the tiger fight, completely turning the Donghua Empire into a super arsenal facing the world.
This cunning, hateful little fox, he is a hundred times more ugly than the food shown by the ghost animals of the United States during the First World War!
Fertile soil in China! That's the dream of my life!
Unfortunately, there is now a great prehistoric beast standing in front of the Empire of Japan.
Whenever he thought that Cheng Gong had killed the empire and army like a chicken, and dared to break into the palace alone with two of his subordinates, Hirohito's heart would be filled with endless resentment.
Hirohito was well aware that the reason why Cheng Gong provided so much support to the Japanese Empire was to use the empire to challenge the global colonial system controlled by the white race, so as to squeeze out time and space for China to rest and recuperate and bury itself in industrial and economic development.
A unified and powerful China is definitely a huge disaster for the Yamato nation!
No way! We must find a way to bypass Cheng Gong, bypass the Donghua Empire, and include the whole of China in the territory of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere! The Kuomintang and the Communist Party must not be allowed to coexist peacefully and peacefully in China.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration crossed Hirohito's mind.
The "Hull Plan" planned by the ghost animal of the United States that Nanzao Yunzi passed back seems to be able to make good use of it!
Since the ghost beast of the United States wants to instigate the armies of the Chinese Kuomintang and the Communist Party to launch a new war to regain the lost territory and resolutely resist Japan, then let this "Hull Plan" be implemented smoothly. If the Chinese army had provoked a military conflict against the Imperial Army first, wouldn't the Great Japanese Empire have fought back?!
Thinking that the mysterious river crab organization, which even Cheng Gong feared like a snake and scorpion, had never stopped the Japanese Empire's conquest of China, Hirohito suddenly felt confidence and courage arise spontaneously.
Nanzao Yunzi not only sent back the "Hull Plan" of the ghost animal of the United States, but also succeeded in stealing the entire content of the "Comprehensive Cooperation Agreement between the East and the Soviet Union".
Of course, Hirohito would not know that the "Comprehensive Cooperation Agreement between the East and the Soviet Union" obtained by Nanzao Yunzi was seven points true and three points false.
Both the Japanese Cabinet and the Ministry of War conducted an in-depth analysis and study of this "Agreement on Comprehensive Cooperation between the East and the Soviet Union" and finally came to a unanimous conclusion:
If the Soviet Union really implemented the terms of this agreement, it is likely that within ten years the Soviet Union would be peacefully transformed into a capitalist country with a free market economic system led by bureaucratic capitalism, and socialism and communism would gradually disappear in the Soviet Union!
The East and the Soviet Union cooperated in an all-round way, but this did not include the formation of a strategic alliance in the true sense of the word. This kind of cooperation is at a deeper level all-round cooperation in the economic field. The two countries maintain political and military non-interference with each other.
This is enough to show that the comprehensive cooperation between the East Soviet Union and the Paradise Island Cooperation Organization is not as terrible as Hirohito imagined.
Moreover, one of the terms of this agreement was that the East China Empire supported the Soviet Union's export of revolution in Central and West Asia. This means that the countdown to the Soviet Union's war against the British colonies of Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan and other countries has begun.
Now that the Soviet Union had planned a military attack on Britain, it was impossible for the Soviet Union to clash with the Kwantung Army in the Far East.
Stalin would not have been stupid enough to go to war with Britain and the Great Japanese Empire at the same time!
The Empire of Japan signed non-aggression pacties with both Donghua and the Soviet Union. If the armies of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party of China were to take the lead in launching a military attack on the imperial army in China, from the perspective of international justice and morality, neither Donghua nor the Soviet Union should interfere with the Japanese Empire in self-defense and counterattack.
Besides, the current Great Japanese Empire is not the Great Japanese Empire of two years ago!
The empire's industrial technology and production capacity have been greatly improved; The military technology of the empire is already at the leading level in the world except for Donghua; After two years of arduous training, the Empire's individual combat effectiveness and tactical thinking have been significantly improved!
Even if the Donghua Empire wanted to intervene in the war in China, it had to weigh whether the price was too great!
After making up his mind, Hirohito immediately ordered Ishihara Wanji and Yamamoto Isoroku to be called.
When Ishihara and Yamamoto listened to His Majesty's strategic plan, they couldn't help but look at Hirohito.
Because, when Hirohito sent someone to call Ishihara Waner, Ishihara Waner was discussing with Yamamoto 56 the feasibility of the "Operation Plan Zero".
Yamamoto's point of view is clear: Operation Plan Zero is feasible from both strategic and tactical levels, but there must be a premise that the Soviet Union will wage war against Afghanistan.
In addition, some details of the Zero operation plan still need to be revised, and a strict timetable must be drawn up, and it is absolutely impossible to arbitrarily expand the battle and lengthen the battle line like the troops sent to North China in that year. The new Zero operation plan must highlight a core idea: encroachment on the southwest region of China!
