995 Sunset in Hawaii IV. The Fate of the Liver!

"Your Majesty! The Japanese Empire could not afford such a toss! This war with China has exhausted the vitality of the country, tens of millions of people are living in hell, and even the elite of the Yamato nation who followed His Majesty to Hawaii are already desperate! Listen to the cries of the people outside the window! ”

Fumihiro Konoe pushed open the window of Hirohito's office in the Honolulu Imperial Palace. The city of Honolulu was quiet under the night sky, and there was no sound of crying. But Hirohito could see the dense lights on the hillside in the distance, where Japanese refugees had set up camp as they arrived in Hawaii. There were not enough houses to house them on New Yamato Island (Oahu), and with the exception of a few high-ranking exiles, most of them had to sleep in the wilderness, without enough food to eat, and there were no tiles or walls to shelter from the elements. Although on the surface, all the people still pretend to be full of confidence, let alone cry in public, but every night, around the camp where the refugees gather, you can still hear faint sobbing cries. Of course, standing in the room of the Hirohito Imperial Palace, you can't hear it.

No, Hirohito seems to have heard someone crying! He looked at the cry, and it turned out to be the former Minister of War Nagata Tetsuyama and the former Minister of the Navy Shigetaro Shimada, who were kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly! Konoe, Nagata, and Shimada had just arrived in Hawaii. After getting off the boat, the three of them didn't care about settling their families, so they went straight to the Honolulu Imperial Palace and asked to meet the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Japan can't go to war anymore! The people have already spent the last copper plate for this war, and they have contributed their own children who have not reached adulthood. But we still lost! We were defeated by China! If it is defeated, it will admit defeat and Shina has no intention of destroying Japan, Japan can still find its place in the new order of the East in the future, and it can still be revived in the future! Your Majesty. Give it up! ”

Emperor Hirohito looked angrily at Fumiro Konoe, at his most trusted minister. He, of course, understands how weak the country has now become. The civil war that had just broken out had pushed Japan into a corner. But it was not himself who provoked this war, but the national thieves such as Chongren, Bei Yihui, and Inuyangyi! Now, if anyone should back down, it should be these national thieves, not the real emperor of the eternal lineage! Moreover, the Japanese Empire will never reach the end of the road, because Germany is still supporting itself, as long as it and Japan can hold out until Germany defeats the United States, the situation will be completely reversed! Why don't these important ministers in front of them understand?

"Your Majesty. Now, if you're willing to take a step back, the entire empire can emerge from the abyss of civil war. Before it was too late, the civil war had just begun, and the army and civilians were still in awe of the emperor's authority. If it drags on any longer. When the power of the warlords is formed, and when the authority of the emperor is swept away, Japan will enter another Sengoku era! When the time comes, the Japanese Empire will perish! If a divided Japan will eventually be annexed by China, please show the consciousness of Keiki (Tokugawa Keiki) and save Japan by retreating! ”

Fumiro Konoe wept while persuading. The former Japanese prime minister seems to have a clearer mind than his master.

In response to Konoe's painstaking persuasion, Hirohito did not show the slightest wavering expression, but said lightly: "German characteristics von. Dixon and Admiral Canaris have just proposed a plan for me to turn things around. The Germans plan to launch an air raid against the American isotope separation plant at the end of May of this year, which will use kamikaze and atomic bombs! What is an isotope separation plant. You should know, right? A crazy expression flashed across Hirohito's face: "Once the American isotope separation plant is destroyed by the atomic bomb, then they will have to surrender to us!" At that time, Shina will be isolated, and the Japanese Empire will naturally be able to recover! ”

Hirohito's voice fell. The office fell silent, and the guards stopped shouting. Nagata and Shimada stopped crying their noses, and both opened their mouths wide and stared at Hirohito with their eyes fixed. After a long time, I heard Shimada mutter: "Impossible, impossible, the American isotope separation plant will not be placed on the edge of the Atlantic, it must be in the inland area, and it must be under the heavy escort of American aircraft and ground artillery fire, how can kamikaze drones deal with it?" ”

"I can't say that this plan is foolproof, but the possibility of success is very high." Hirohito replied in a calm tone: "According to the reconnaissance of German intelligence, the isotope separation plant of the Americans is in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, about 2700 kilometers from Puerto Rico"

"So far?" Shigetaro Shimada took a deep breath and couldn't help but interrupt Hirohito's words: "The range of ordinary fighters can't reach that far at all, and if you use long-range bombers to penetrate the defense at night, the risk is too great, and it is difficult for such an operation to succeed." ”

"It's going to work!" Hirohito glared at the former admiral who interjected indiscriminately, and said coldly: "The plan of the German side is to penetrate the defense at night, and more than 100 Junkers JU88 night fighters will be used to escort the whole process. The aircraft and atomic bombs for the entire operation were to be supplied by the German side, and all aircraft crews were to be supplied by Japan. In return, the German side will support us with sufficient supplies, funds and equipment."

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that our kamikaze attackers don't have the ability to fly 2,700 kilometers at night and find specific targets to strike." Shitaro Shimada reminded with a bitter face.

"No problem!" Hirohito replied flatly: "Let's recruit kamikaze fighters from among the outstanding pilots of the Navy and Army Aviation who are currently on duty!" Let Eisuke Yamamoto be in charge of recruitment, and his son-in-law Kengoro Liver Fu can be in charge of commanding the entire raid! ”

Emperor Hirohito's casual appointment put our genius spy Kengoro Hetofu in danger. Well, flying an aircraft loaded with an atomic bomb to launch a suicide attack on a U.S. nuclear facility, is this the fate of Kengoro Hetofu?

At this time, Kengoro Hetofu did not know that he had been named by His Majesty the Emperor, and that he was about to take on the heavy responsibility of fighting US imperialism.

He was sitting lazily on the tatami mats. He took a closer look at his new home. This is an ensuite apartment in the naval base at Pearl Harbor in the officers' quarters, with a small reception room, two small bedrooms, and a dining room. A kitchen and a bathroom with shower facilities. The small rooms, small furniture, and Japanese-style decoration are all exquisite. There was a slight noise in the kitchen, it was Liver Fu's wife, Ah Cai, preparing dinner, and his son Shorimaru was crawling around the room in open crotch pants, and after climbing for a while, he raised his little face like a bun. A group of dark, large eyes glanced at the man sitting cross-legged. What a cosy family of three.

What the hell are you doing now? The North Korean motherland has been restored, and although the name is still hated by the Republic of Korea, it is better than nothing. Now that his spy mission can be said to have been fully accomplished, it is time to return to the motherland to participate in the construction. But why hasn't the order to evacuate been issued above? Do they really want to lurk among the Japanese for the rest of their lives?

Ever since the atomic bomb incident, Kengoro has been waiting for the evacuation order from his new superior, the Korean Min** Newspaper. Although he resented the evil behavior of the Chinese in dropping the atomic bomb on Korean soil, his longing for the mountains and rivers of his motherland became even stronger, and he was eager to immediately put on his wings and return to the motherland. It is also good to be able to build the DPRK motherland into a strong and prosperous country one day sooner by plunging into the construction in full swing!

However, it was as if he had completely forgotten about him, and there was no instruction. In fact, due to the chaotic situation during this time, the upline responsible for communicating with him has been cut off. Either he was "caught" by the Japanese, or he was bombed by the Chinese and did not know what to do. Even a few North Korean female agents in the original Pearl Harbor comfort station didn't know where they went? Looking at this situation, it seems that he has lost contact with the organization. I don't know when those "big shots" who can only compete for power and profit will remember themselves as "big spies" who have made outstanding contributions to the liberation of the Korean people.

But when he returned to Pearl Harbor today, saw his wife and son, and saw his own warm little home, he felt that this kind of life was actually not bad. If those big shots in Seoul really forget that there is still a Kim Sung-joo in the world, then they might as well be Kengoro for the rest of their lives! Maybe I can become a minister or a prime minister in the future.

Just when Liver Fu was thinking nonsense, the ticking sound of the electric bell at the gate suddenly rang, and then the sound of the door opening was heard, and then Ah Cai's soft female voice came in: "It turned out to be Yuantian-kun, please come in, please come in." ”

The paper door of the reception room opened with a bang, and I saw Minoru Genda holding a pot of wine in his hand, standing at the door with a smile, Genda, who has always been clean and tidy, actually wore a crumpled kimono today, and his hair was messy, I don't know how many days I haven't taken care of it. Ganfu frowned slightly, raised his hand and said, "Yuantian-kun, please take a seat." ”

Minoru Genda sat down with a big grin, and reached out to twist it on Kosho Himaru's fat face, but the child was scared to cry, and Ah Cai, who was dressed as a housewife, hurriedly ran in and carried his son out. Looking at the decadent Genda in front of him, Kengoro Liver Fu shook his head and said with a straight face: "Genda-kun, please cheer up, the empire has not lost the war yet!" ”

Genda raised his head, squinted his eyes at Liver Fu twice, and sneered: "Fool! When did you still say such things? Saying that, he took two more sips of wine: "I am resigned to my fate now, Lehe is born one day at a time, I don't know when it will be my turn to fly a kamikaze plane!" In the past two days, when I close my eyes, I have seen the shadows of those young people, and they are all waiting for me in Kudanzaka! Uh, no, Kudanzaka is gone, that place was burned to the ground by incendiary bombs in the bombing of the Chinese, and it is estimated that Chongren's kid did not have the courage to rebuild. ”

Liver Fu smiled bitterly: "Isn't it just a shrine, just wait until we get back to Tokyo and rebuild it." Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered something, twisted his eyebrows and said, "By the way, Gentian-kun, you just said that it was your turn to fly a kamikaze plane?" It's not a joke, is it? You're an ace pilot."

Yuan Tian snorted and took another long sip of wine: "Of course it's not a joke, do you look like I'm joking?" He sighed, "I arrived in Hawaii a few days before you." I know a little more news, one of which is related to kamikaze drones, and it also has something to do with ace pilots like you and me, this time it's going to use ace pilots to form kamikaze drones! ”

Liver Fu looked at Gentian steadily. Slowly shook his head: "How many ace pilots are there in the hands of the Navy now?" How will the war be maintained after being used as a kamikaze? ”

"Later?" Genda sneered twice: "Will there be a future in the empire?" Even if there were, it didn't have a dime to do with us, we were already sold to the Germans! ”

"Sold to the Germans? Could it be a P35 missile? Liver Fu still shook his head. After the liver left the German Navy, the Germans used the remaining P35 manned missiles and Japanese kamikaze members to launch a fierce attack on Norfolk, the home port of the US Atlantic Fleet, which basically paralyzed the US Atlantic Fleet.

"Of course not the P35 missile." Minoru Genda leaned closer to the liver and lowered his voice: "Let me tell you an inside message, our lives are going to be used for the German atomic bomb attack!" It's that kind of uranium bomb, the Chinese call it an atomic bomb, and the Germans seem to have this thing soon. They wanted to use the atomic bomb to attack the secret factory that the Yankees used to make the atomic bomb! Since the factory was far from Puerto Rico, it was a suicide attack with no return! Hundreds of JU88G night fighters will be used, as well as a few FW200s, and the time of the operation will be to take off at dusk. Fly two or three thousand kilometers and launch a suicide attack in the early hours of the next morning! Speaking of this, he sighed, glanced in the direction of the kitchen, and said to Liver Fu: "You and I will most likely be selected to participate in this operation, Liver Fu Jun." Let's accompany Ah Cai more these days."

"Ahh Liver Fu Kengoro's face was as pale as paper, and he stayed directly on the spot

The gossip brought by Minoru Genda was confirmed by Eisuke Yamamoto that night, and Admiral Yamamoto reluctantly told Liver Fu and Acai that he had just been given a kamikaze death squad mobilized from among the Navy's active outstanding pilots. In order to participate in the mission of the joint operation between Japan and Germany, and Emperor Hirohito also named Kengoro Liver Fuki. It is a great honor to be the supreme commander of the Japanese side in this joint operation between Japan and Germany!

Probably already mentally prepared. So Liver Fu still behaved like a samurai at this time, at least he didn't faint on the spot or shout for help or anything. He didn't cry bitterly, in fact, he had already shed tears all afternoon, and his eyes were already swollen from crying.

"Father, how many daredevils will be used in this operation?" Liver Fu tried to pretend to be calm at this time, and asked in a deep voice.

"The preliminary plan is 100 JU88G night fighters, and a specially modified FW200F bomber to carry an atomic bomb of about three tons." Eisuke Yamamoto replied slowly, his face was also very unsightly, for this son-in-law, to be honest, he was very satisfied. In the original plan, the future of the liver should be an official position such as the Minister of the Navy and the Prime Minister, and it was definitely not shattered by the atomic bomb!

Liver Fu lowered his head and calculated, and muttered in his mouth: "JU88 needs 5 crew members, and FW200 has 5 crew members, which is enough, that is, 505 crew members are needed." Of these, 101 pilots are needed, 100 are mobilized in addition to me, 101 navigators are needed, and 303 gunners are needed. Speaking of this, Liver Fu smiled: "It takes a lot of people, father, do you know when to act?" ”

Eisuke Yamamoto nodded silently and gently spit out a few words: "Before the end of June." ”

"Three months to go!" Liver Fu exhaled lightly and said with a wry smile: "Time is very tight, pilots and navigators are okay to say, experienced gunners seem to be more difficult to get, I'm afraid that they will have to be recruited from surface ships No matter what, the recruitment must be completed by the end of February, and all personnel will arrive in Germany at the beginning of March, and then start training!" ”

Seeing his son-in-law pretending to be calm there, Eisuke Yamamoto didn't know what to say, so he just nodded and turned away, leaving him with his wife and children

At a time when Japan and Germany were planning to defeat the United States, the American envoy Harry . Once again, Hopkins came to China for help.

As the car he was riding in drove through the streets of Wuhan, he suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu exuberant. Wuhan now is like New York before the outbreak of the Pacific War, the streets are crowded, all the places of consumption are thriving, all the cars on horsepower are one after another, and every man and woman he sees is dressed in decent clothes and has a confident and optimistic smile on their faces.

"Mr. Hopkins, do you think this place looks like New York?" Ambassador Rockefeller, who was in the same car with Hopkins, seemed to feel the same way, and he suddenly pointed to a construction site outside the car window and said: "That's the Republic Building, which is jointly invested by the Republic Aircraft Company and several other shareholders, and is ready to build 103 floors, with a height of 453 meters, which is taller than our Empire State Building!" When he said this, the diplomat from the Rockefeller family seemed quite emotional.

Hopkins shrugged: "They're a world empire now, so they have to have some window dressing, right?" He said as if he was laughing at himself: "But this place is much more prosperous than New York now, and the residents of New York are now moving away one after another, and the city center is like a dead city at night, and there is no one on the streets, and it is not a city that never sleeps, and if Hitler wants to drop the atomic bomb there, it is estimated that it will not kill a few people." Now that people on the East Coast are moving to the countryside, the farther away from the big cities, the better. ”

"Damn war!" Rockefeller gritted his teeth and cursed: "War is about to destroy the entire civilized world!" ”

Hopkins also sighed: "Now it seems that only the Chinese can save the world, Nelson, can you predict what the Chinese side will ask?" ”

Rockefeller sighed, during this time he had been lobbying influential figures in China, hoping that they could support the war against Japan to the end, but the results were not satisfactory. There seems to be a sign of war weariness in China now, not because the losses caused by the war are too great, but because everyone thinks that China has made a lot of money from this war, and now it should be reaped!

"Mr. Hopkins, the question now is not what China will demand, but that they don't want anything anymore." Rockefeller sighed as he spoke: "Now China has won half of the world, and it is the first of the world's three major powers to get out of this world war, so China's fiat currency has now become the reserve currency of all countries in the world, and they only need to print some money if they want to buy any machinery and equipment or industrial products!" In fact, even our central bank and the German central bank have started to reserve China's fiat currency in the past two months. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Hopkins was stunned when he heard this, and he was ashamed to say that he, the US secretary of commerce, had not asked about business for several months, so he had no idea about the bullish trend of fiat currencies in the world.

But if you think about it, you can see it. China is now almost as free as the United States! Moreover, there is a nascent democracy in the country, and the legal system is also independent, which means that there is still a sense of reason, unlike Germany, where no one knows whether the Nazis will confiscate property as they did with the Jews. And the risk of a world war is basically non-existent for China! Even if Germany defeats the United States, China can use the atomic bomb in its hands to deter German aggression, and it is safest for the big capitalists in the world to transfer capital to China now.

In addition, China's domestic investment opportunities are also many, compared to the United States and Germany, China is still a relatively backward country, after the land area has increased several times, the bottleneck of resources has completely existed, the domestic labor resources are abundant, the market is large enough, such a country is like the United States in the mid-to-late 19th century, it is like a magnet in attracting global capital, in the case of a large amount of capital flocking in, China is certainly not short of money, the United States wants to buy China with money, it seems that it is not very realistic!
