Entering the bar where singing and dancing and stepping into the front desk, the boss Yuma Hashiguchi turned around: "Hehe, it's Lord Ningci, why do you have time to come?" What do you want to drink? ”

Okamura Ninji shook his head: "Open a private room for me, after a while, two friends will come over and say that they are looking for me, so let them go directly to the private room." ”

Just as Okamura Ninji turned around and walked towards the private room, he suddenly heard a burst of scolding, and it was not unusual to quarrel in the bar. It's not uncommon for drunken men to get drunk, and what caught Okamura's attention was that the shouting was all in English - it was an American, and an American he knew! However, he did not participate rashly, most of the high-level people in the bar were rich and powerful, and he was a little big Zuo who couldn't speak here.

"Apologies! Apologize to me! You despicable monkey! MacArthur, who was tall, grabbed a middle-aged Japanese man with both hands, and two Japanese men's companions next to him were punching and kicking MacArthur. The reason for the quarrel seems to be that MacArthur was robbed of his female companion by a Japanese man, and soon, because he had drunk too much, MacArthur was knocked to the ground by three stout men, curled up with a painful look, several Japanese stopped attacking, cursed and left, and everyone around went up to stop it.

When the three of them passed by Okamura Ninji, he clearly heard the conversation of the three, it was nothing more than that the Americans were nothing remarkable, they were all cowards, treacherous traitors, and they would be beaten once in the future.

No one dared to say that before Yokosuka, let alone beat up the Americans, those Westerners with high noses and deep eyes were the emperor of Japan, and Japan was just a pet they raised. However, after the Yokosuka incident, the strength of the Americans was wiped out under the attack of China, and the Japanese experienced a psychological transformation from extreme trust to extreme disappointment, and the consequence of this psychological change was extreme hatred of the Yankees. What made the Japanese even more angry was that the Americans quickly left Japan by ship after the Yokosuka incident and returned to their homeland. From naval soldiers to high-ranking generals, from capitalists to engineers, almost all left. More than 40,000 Americans returned to the United States on passenger ships permitted by China, and before they had infiltrated all aspects of Japan, many departments, including factories, came to a standstill after leaving the American aid team, and the Americans were denied requests to continue to supply Japan with industrial raw materials, and most seriously, the insecurity of losing Americans. It is not difficult to understand why the Japanese hate the Americans.

Okamura Ninji had heard a little about MacArthur, and after most of the Americans left, this previously proud American officer was ordered to stay in Japan and take charge of some contacts with the Japanese and American militaries. And prepare for a very unlikely return of the United States. What can be the connection? The Americans were too busy to take care of themselves, the transportation channels in the Pacific Ocean were cut off by the Chinese navy, and the Japanese military ignored the US cables, and even spoke ill of MacArthur, who was in charge of the contact.

MacArthur repeatedly asked the country to return home, and his family also used their influence to advocate for MacArthur, but unfortunately they were all refused. The reason for the refusal was simple, and it was impossible to find fault with it, after the Chinese launched the Hawaiian War, civilian transportation in the Pacific Ocean was affected, and the Chinese issued an edict prohibiting the passage of any Japanese and American ships. MacArthur had another option: to land at Vladivostok across the Sea of Japan, then return to Europe via the Trans-Siberian Railway, then find a way to cross war-torn Western Europe and finally cross the Atlantic back to home. Good choice, but since the news of the sinking of a Japanese transport ship in the Sea of Japan by a Chinese submarine reached Pukou, MacArthur also cut off the idea of leaving.

This young American was born to run away, and he was very arrogant. After throwing tens of thousands of American soldiers from the original time and space, he fled the Philippines, and brazenly shouted, "I will come back!" "It's the same now, doesn't he know that the situation of Americans in Japan is not good right now? is still openly and upright, just like he is still the emperor of the Japanese.

He didn't mean anything to himself, and rushing over would only add a burden to himself, Okamura Ninji ignored MacArthur and walked into the private room. In fact, no one paid attention to the fate of the American officer, who was carried out of the bar by Yuma Hashiguchi's men and thrown next to a dirty trash can in the back alley. In the end, it is not known whether it was eaten by rats or cooked by wanderers, and it did not return to its residence anyway, and was put on the list of missing by the U.S. Consulate.

The dusty Hideki Tojo arrived a few minutes after Yamamoto Isoroku arrived, and the three young men in military uniforms were very happy to meet each other, they shared the same ideals, agreed with each other's ways of achieving them, and had similar personalities, and this tacit understanding made the boat of friendship between the three extremely strong.

After a few glasses of high-end alcohol, the thoughts of the three of them also diverged, and their respective experiences, judgments and analyses of the situation, and prospects for the future were almost like high-level meetings convened by the General Staff and the government, and they were more detailed and closer to reality. Unbeknownst to the few, however, their sound waves were being absorbed by a bug on the ceiling lampshade and then carried along the wires to a pitch-black hut next door, where a man with headphones and an electronic device in front of him was quietly and nervously recording important conversations in a notebook.

"Ning Cijun, this time it's my turn to treat you!" Yamamoto said with a smile that he was born in the navy and did not lose his role because of the disappearance of the navy, and the Japanese military and navy have a strong tradition, many of whom are in high positions, and they have participated in a large number of military coups, so as to gain huge power. After the expansion of the army, most of the admirals entered the government, sharing political and military control with the army generals.

"It doesn't matter, money is nothing to us. Hideki-kun, I chose the location of your garrison, Fukuoka Prefecture, Kyushu Island. It's the front line of the war, and it's the place where the battle is expected to be the worst, and it should be what you want! ”

"Thank you very much, it is my greatest wish to be able to fight the Chinese army at the first time. Ning Cijun, is there any information on the arrangement of the Chinese army? How many troops will they put on Kyushu? Is it possible to attack Kagoshima in advance and force the Chinese army to lose the most important node in Japan? ”

"I don't know, our intelligence agency in China has been completely destroyed, and we can't get the information from there. The specific number of Chinese troops landing on the Japanese archipelago, the place of departure, the time of departure, the location of the landing, and the equipment are not known. However, our intelligence officers in Kagoshima still gave us a lot of information. They operated in Kagoshima for many years, and there was almost no Japanese presence in Kagoshima Prefecture, where the Chinese army was stationed with a marine regiment and two infantry divisions, and the port of Kagoshima was also one of the important military ports of the Chinese navy. Due to the large number of Chinese troops, the presence of shore defense artillery and warships on the sea, the permanent fortifications such as strong fortresses and pillboxes on the land side, and the support of four military airfields and more than 200 aircraft, it was difficult for us to attack Kagoshima in advance. Moreover, the Chinese army is rapidly increasing the size of the garrison in Kagoshima Prefecture, and the information provided by the intelligence officers is not clear, but it is certain that three Chinese infantry corps have entered Kagoshima Prefecture, that is, the scale of nearly 200,000 people, the defense density is very high, and the losses caused by attacking there are too great. ”

"As far as I know, we have deployed more than a million regular troops on Kyushu Island, and most of the elite divisions have been transferred there, and it is not an established strategy to consume the living forces of the Chinese army on Kyushu Island, drag them into the quagmire of war, and force China to negotiate with our country because of the war losses? If this is the case, why not take the initiative to attack Kagoshima and make the Chinese army abandon this bridgehead? As for the question of too large losses, the losses in this war are not small, and all the people of the Yamato nation must be prepared to sacrifice. Moreover, we have mobilized most of the young adults on Kyushu Island, and more than four million of the six million reservists have been distributed weapons and ammunition, which is enough to drown the Chinese army in Kagoshima! Hideki Tojo said.

"Eiji-kun, the essence of the Yamato nation cannot be sacrificed there in vain, even if the Chinese army in Kagoshima is annihilated, they can land anywhere in the Japanese archipelago with their superior navy and powerful transport force. Our coastline is too long, and even if the military headquarters has already deployed heavy troops and built fortifications at the places where the Chinese troops are likely to land, they can choose to land in areas where our defenses are weak. ”

"The areas that are weakly defended are those with very poor port conditions, they need good ports, and it is impossible to land in small ports. Moreover, we have greatly improved the transportation situation in recent years, and troops from other regions can quickly rush to the landing site of the Chinese army and drive the small units of the Chinese army that have landed into the sea! ”

"Nothing is impossible, we have all seen the technology and means that Huaguo has not exhausted, who can know that they do not have the means to land in small ports in large numbers? Moreover, Kyushu Island is the most important part of our strategy, and it is also the main battlefield, and the sacrifice of the six million reserve soldiers in the attack on the strong fortress is not worth the loss, which is destined to be a long and arduous battle, and it cannot be cautious! ”

"I know that the General Staff and the government are negotiating to formulate a battle plan, do you know Ning Cijun?" Yamamoto Fifty-six asked, Okamura Ningji was stunned for a moment, as the deputy director of the combat department, there was a battle plan that he didn't know?

"You don't know if it's excusable, because the forces used in this operation are not from the army, but from the government. The army of 50,000 Ezo people will take the initiative to attack the defense line of the Chinese army in the Kagoshima area, one is to consume the ammunition of the Chinese army and test the deployment of the Chinese army, and the other is to remove these moths of the Ezo tribe and bring more living space to the Yamato nation!
