Chapter 1141: The hesitation of the base camp

"Does that idiot ask for anything?!" Umezu Mijiro looked at his liaison coldly, he didn't think that a person like Syngman Rhee could get anything valuable.

"He asked that after the new government is formed, he will be able to become the president of the new government." The liaison officer bowed humbly to Umezu Mijiro and said, "He said that he is willing to cooperate with us." At the same time, swear to join the Axis powers and join us in the war against the Allies......"

Umezu Mijiro didn't speak, he lowered his head and fell into deep thought. For Umezu Mijiro, the temptation of this opportunity is not insignificant.

The difficulties faced by the Japanese troops on the 38th parallel can be imagined, and the Wehrmacht on both sides has only wrapped them in motion. Although in the tunnel fortifications of the 38th parallel, there are a large number of material reserves.

But these reserves will eventually run out, and once the reserves are exhausted, what will be waiting for the Japanese army, Umezu Mijiro knows better than anyone else.

"We're facing the Wehrmacht troops, how is he going to lead them away?! How can he guarantee that we will be able to win?! "This is what Umezu Mijiro cares about the most, and Umezu Mijiro doesn't dare to act rashly now.

I am afraid that any action will bring a catastrophe to the Japanese army. The Japanese army on the 38th parallel is one of the few elite combat forces in Japan at present, and once all of them are annihilated by the Wehrmacht, the impact and consequences will be terrible.

Even if it retains its troops, it can force the Wehrmacht to deploy a large number of troops on the 38th parallel for defense. This will delay the Wehrmacht's attack on the Japanese mainland.

"Here's his plan......" The liaison officer smiled and bowed to Umezu Mijiro as he respectfully handed over a document.

Umezu Mijiro opened the file and looked at it carefully. This document, which had apparently been prepared for a long time, contained a detailed description of the defensive positions of the Wehrmacht.

Even the strength of the troops stationed in various parts of North Korea, the state of defense, and the armament of weapons are very clearly described. Umezu handed the document to his chief of staff, who took it and told his staff officers to begin checking the status of the attack.

After a long while, Lieutenant General Iimura, chief of staff of the Kwantung Army, walked up to Umezu Mijiro and bowed slightly, "Your Excellency Commander." After our calculations, the document provided by 'Autumn' roughly confirms the results of our offensive......"

Umezu Mijiro nodded, he was a little undecided now. This opportunity is undoubtedly a good offensive opportunity. If successful, the Japanese army will not only break out of the encirclement of the Wehrmacht, but will also be able to threaten the Chinese mainland.

According to Japan's own intelligence network. The Defence Force has withdrawn most of its troops. Now they are extremely empty in the country, and the three eastern provinces, which are their industrial bases, are even more slack.

As long as the defense circle of the North Korean side can be broken through in one go, then the "autumn" will cooperate with the Kwantung Army to eliminate all the forces of the North Korean Defense Forces, and the Kwantung Army will be able to seize the northeast as quickly as possible!

Once the Northeast is lost, then the combat effectiveness of the Wehrmacht will be lost by more than seventy percent. This is the assessment made by the General Staff of the Kwantung Army, the most important fighter aircraft production plant, oil refinery, smelter of the Wehrmacht...... Wait a minute. All in the Northeast.

If it were lost, the Wehrmacht would be in a difficult situation if it could continue to fight for more than a month at most. Their vast arsenal of weapons and equipment will not be replenished, and their ties with the Soviet Union will be severed......

"Send a report to the base camp and ask the base camp to evaluate the battle!" Umezu Mijiro's heart was hot, and he knew that this was a great opportunity for the Japanese army to turn the tables around.

Once this campaign was completed, cutting off the Wehrmacht's supply arteries made them bleed profusely. Then the Wehrmacht was forced to collapse without a fight. And at the same time. Japan will also be able to obtain oil, steel, and coal, which are now in dire straits...... and so on.

"What the hell?! Why the sudden emergency meeting?! Ishihara asked in a deep voice on the phone with a frown, and the staff officer on the other end of the phone replied respectfully.

"Your Excellency, I don't know the specifics. I only know that after receiving a call from the Kwantung Army, the commander-in-chief ordered us to inform everyone to come to the base camp for a meeting immediately......"

"I know, I'll be right over now!" Ishihara's heart chuckled, and his first thought was that there was a problem with the Kwantung Army. But he couldn't think of what could go wrong.

It is said that the materials and fortifications that Umezu Mijiro had stockpiled in the 38th parallel were enough to resist the Wehrmacht's onslaught. Unless the Wehrmacht intends to fill it with more than 200,000 human lives. Otherwise, it is impossible to win the 38th parallel.

While wearing his military uniform, Ishihara Wan'er thought: Could it be that the tiger is crazy and wants to take down the 38th parallel?! In addition, Ishihara really couldn't imagine why Umezu Mijiro would rush to the base camp.

Although he looks down on Hideki Tojo, he still cares a lot about the empire's strategy. And when he hurried to the conference room, the meeting on the Kwantung Army had already begun.

Hideki Tojo asked a staff officer to hand the document to Ishihara, who noticed that the generals present were all looking down at the same documents as him.

In order to ensure that the base camp can make a correct judgment, Umezu Mijiro has telegraphed everything to know about Tokyo.

No one spoke in the conference room of the base camp, and everyone was "rust......ling" through the papers. Some people even look at the document repeatedly, trying to find any serious problems or loopholes in it.

"Everyone should know the situation. In order to make things clear so that we could make the right judgment, Umezu-san did not hesitate to send more than fifteen telegrams......"

Hideki Tojo looked at all the generals present and said, "I want to know what everyone thinks about this matter." Should we take this risk?! ”

No one spoke, and everyone looked at Ishihara. He is known as the "Wisdom of the Three Birds", and everyone wants to hear what he has to say first.

Ishihara didn't seem to pay attention to everyone's gaze. Instead, he continued to flip through the document on his own. Seeing this, Hideki Tojo could only helplessly name: "Ishihara, can you tell me your opinion?!" ”

Ishihara raised his head, his gaze becoming extremely complicated. He didn't speak immediately, but placed the file on the table, his fingers tapping on it.

"To be honest, I was thrilled to see this plan. I'd love to even start making an action plan right away, but I know it at the same time. This tiger is not a fool. He's not that easy to deal with......"

Ishihara looked at the generals present and said with a wry smile: "Every time, when we put a bait with a charming fragrance in front of us, it is always likely to be poison......

"We ate too much in the process of dealing with that tiger. Each time, we thought we would be able to make a profit, but in the end it was our ...... who suffered."

Hideki Tojo's face was ugly, and he knew that what Ishihara said was the truth. For the Japanese army, the tiger's losses were too much.

It always looks like a sweet cake, but when you eat it, you find that it is a deadly poison. Then the tiger seems to be very good at making bait, and every time the bait is made, it is so addictive.

"I believe that the information provided by Umezu-san is well-founded. As for 'Aki', I've also paid attention to ......" Ishihara paused and said, "There is no doubt that 'Aki' is a very ambitious person......"

"That said, there's a good chance he'll work with us." Ishihara looked at everyone and said, "As for the current situation in North Korea and the three eastern provinces, I believe that the information he provided is correct. ”

"The base camp China class also has its own eyeliner in those places, as long as we make a certain comparison, we can know the truth of the matter......"

"North Korea and the Tohoku region are indeed the emptiest areas of the National Defense Force. As long as we move fast enough, we can completely occupy all these areas......"

Ishihara said, gritting his teeth and saying, "Even if we can't get the resources we need from those areas, then destroying the industrial base of the Wehrmacht in those areas can force the Wehrmacht to suspend its attack on us......"

The Japanese generals present were a little excited, and they could fully imagine what it would be like once the Wehrmacht in the northeast was lost. The reason why the Wehrmacht was able to move in all directions was inseparable from their extremely complete industrial base in the northeast.

There, under the painstaking management of the tiger, a complete industrial chain belonging to the coalition government itself has been formed in various ways. From petrochemical, chemical fiber, smelting, forging, manufacturing...... and so on, all of which have formed a completed industrial chain.

Although they moved their R&D institute to the imperial capital, many test tasks still had to be carried out in the northeast. Because there is a complete industrial chain there, and a large number of spare parts are provided.

There is no doubt that the foundation of the Wehrmacht is the foundation of the land. If Japan gets the Tohoku ...... Just think about it, all the Japanese generals and colonels are full of fire.

"Ishihara-san, what I want to know is if you support this plan?!" Hideki Tojo looked at Ishihara with his fiery eyes. He needed to hear the answer Ishihara had to give.

"Actually, I'm not willing to destroy the status quo......" Ishihara was silent for a while before he smiled bitterly: "Delicious cake always means trap ......"

"Your Excellency Ishihara! I think you're worrying too much, and now is not the time for us to worry. The situation in the Empire could not have been worse. Instead of that, we might as well fight! Perhaps, to be able to break a path for the Empire! ”

Lieutenant General Hyotaro Kimura stood up and said to Ishihara, "Even if we fail, we will do our last bit for the empire!" ”
