"Wait, Yamamoto-kun, what did you say? The strength of the Japanese Navy is at the advantage? After listening to Yamamoto's analysis, Ishihara said suspiciously: "The total tonnage of the navy's current capital ships is only more than 200,000 tons, while the total tonnage of the capital ships of the British and American navies is at least 1.2 million tons!" How can we have an advantage? ”

"Ishihara-kun, have you forgotten the 11 aircraft carriers owned by the Combined Fleet?" Yamamoto Fifty-six had a smug expression on his face. "Speaking of which, this time the Soviets still paid a bloody price, giving us nearly 2,000 Il-1s and I-18s, as well as more than 900 pilots who participated in actual combat. Prototypes of the Il-1 and Il-18 have already been sent to Wujungang. Not to mention, the 1,000 hp engine alone is not comparable to the original P.7, although the engine is a bit heavier and less reliable...... But it's finally possible to make the 10 fleet aircraft carriers of the Combined Fleet form a combat force! Yasuda-kun, Ishihara-kun, do you know that at present, Britain, the United States, and China combined only have a few truly combat-effective aircraft carriers? ”

Yasuo Yasuda has been in charge of intelligence work for a long time, and he has access to a lot of top-secret information at the International Proletarian Command in Moscow, so he is also very familiar with the naval strength of Britain, the United States and China. After listening to Yamamoto's question, he answered truthfully: "At present, Britain, the United States, and China have temporarily rebuilt some aircraft carriers with merchant ships for training or escort purposes, but the number of fleet aircraft carriers that are truly usable has not increased after the war. China still has the three 'Zhongshan' classes, Britain has two 'Brave' classes, and the United States has three fleet aircraft carriers, the 'Lexington', 'Saratoga' and 'Ranger'. ”

Yamamoto nodded with a sneer: "The fleet aircraft carriers of China, the United States and Britain together are only 8. The total number of carrier-based aircraft that can be carried is only 4,500, and our country alone has 10. It can carry 720 carrier-based aircraft! Yasuda-kun and Ishihara-kun, who do you think is the advantage in naval strength right now? ”

Yasuda and Ishihara looked at Yamamoto Isoroku with confidence on his face, and suddenly remembered the "naval aircraft carrier victory theory" that had been popular for a while a few years ago. However, this theory does not seem to have been popular for long, and gradually died down after the Japanese Revolution, so that the two major naval powers, Britain and the United States, have not yet established a truly powerful aircraft carrier fleet. Yasuda asked with some doubts: "Yamamoto-kun, since aircraft carriers have such strong combat effectiveness, why don't Britain and the United States focus on development?" ”

"And not because the Americans deceived our 9 capital ships!" Yamamoto Fifty-six snorted coldly, and seemed to be still haunted by the "ship to pay debts" transaction nine years ago. said: "The Yankees thought that the Japanese Navy, which had lost its capital ships, was no longer an opponent, and that the total tonnage of their capital ships with the world's largest capital ships was enough to dominate the sea, so they were too lazy to develop aircraft carriers!" As for Britain, which has been overwhelmed by the Indian Revolution all these years, where else can it afford to build aircraft carriers? But now that US President Franklin D. Roosevelt has put forward a huge plan for the construction of aircraft carriers, which is being voted on in their Congress, it is estimated that sooner or later it will be approved. In this way, in three years at most, the United States will have the world's largest aircraft carrier fleet, and then it will be when the Japanese Navy will lose its superiority! Therefore, Japan only has two and a half to three years of scenery, and it is necessary to make good use of ......"

Speaking of this, Yamamoto Fifty-six's expression had become grim. Ishihara also knew that the industrial power of the United States was very strong. It is not easy for Japan to have a two-half advantage. After thinking about it carefully, he asked, "Yamamoto-kun, what about two and a half years from now?" ”

"Of course it's time to go on the defensive." Yamamoto's expression darkened, and he said: "And the main battlefield of this war is not the Pacific Ocean after all, but in Europe." If the Soviet Union does not defeat Germany in these two and a half years, Japan's future will be in jeopardy. With that, he turned his gaze to Yasuda, who had just returned from Moscow.

Yasuo Yasuda shook his head. He said in a low voice: "Not long ago, the Soviet Union had a contest with the Germans in Poznan, and although it did not suffer losses from the map, the actual losses were very amazing, far greater than Germany!" I am afraid that they will not have a chance to defeat Germany in two and a half years and win the war! ”

Ishihara looked at Yamamoto: "What do you think of Yamamoto-kun?" ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six narrowed his eyes, and after being silent for a long time, his eyes suddenly became as sharp as a blade: "Now this war is not chosen by Japan, but imposed by the United States...... So Japan only fought! If we still lose our country after fighting, then we can pass on the spirit of fighting, and Japan will surely recover one day in the future! If Japan does not die in a fight, then there is really no hope for Japan, and I am afraid that it will become a colony of China or the United States forever! ”

"Isn't there any hope of victory?" Yasuo Yasuda muttered.

"There will be, but it can't be said that there is no hope at all...... Ishihara leaned forward and lowered his voice: "Didn't the Soviets' intelligence say that the imperialist camp will soon split?" China and Germany and Britain and France will go their separate ways, and the world war will become a four-way game between China and Germany, Britain and France, the United States, and the Soviet Union and Japan, so will Japan, with the world's most powerful navy, have any chance to re-align itself? ”

"What? Ishihara-kun, ...... you" Yasuo Yasuda was shocked when he heard this, and looked at Ishihara in amazement. You must know that the current Japan, after all, is a socialist country led by GCD, not the kind of free and loose capitalist democracy that can talk nonsense! Just by virtue of Ishihara's words, the Japanese NKVD can directly take people! However, seeing Ishihara's solemn expression, Yasuda knew that Ishihara was not talking nonsense......

At this moment, Takeda Heng also heard the same words, and the person who spoke was an old man who was half-leaning on the tatami mat, his face was sallow, and his vitality was almost lost, he was Takeda Heng's backer and veteran in the army, Muto Nobuyoshi, chief of the General Staff of the Japanese Red Army. Muto, known as the pillar of the Japanese Red Army, has a liver problem, and it seems that he will soon become "an older generation of proletarian revolutionaries and military strategists" or something. But now, Muto is still hanging with a sigh of relief. But he is making the final explanation for the future and destiny of the party and the country behind him.

“…… Xinhyung, what is the most important thing? It's the regime of the Japanese GCD! Without a regime, there is no qiē! Don't you understand that? ”

"Father. The son-in-law understands ......"

"Isn't that enough, in order to seize power, the Japanese can tie Japan to the Soviet chariot, and in order to maintain power, the Japanese can expand their armaments at any cost, and can let thousands of Japanese young people serve as cannon fodder for the Soviet Union! So in the future, in order to maintain power, why can't the Japanese betray the USSR? ”

"But after all, the Japanese were raised by the Soviet Union. There are their forces up and down......"

Of course, Takeda Heng could not tell his father-in-law that the evidence that he was Korean was in Trotsky's hands, so he had to find a reason in other directions.

Muto Nobuyoshi snorted coldly and said, "Xinheng, I just want to ask you, how many people in our day really believe in GCISM?" And how many people join the Japanese GCD for power and profit? ”

Takeda Heng was silent. He didn't know how many real GC ists there were, but he knew that he was definitely not one of them, or that he was no longer a real GC player!

Muto's kind words from the dying man continued weakly: "...... Shin Hyung. Don't you know that most of the comrades who follow our party are for power and profit, and half for the sake of strengthening the country, and there is no one in a million who really wants to liberate all mankind and realize GCISM, and these people who are not one in a million will not be able to support the political power. So. You don't have to think about their influence at all, as long as you can keep the regime, keep the rights and status of the majority of the people, and create a dream of a strong country expansion for a small number of people, the world of Japan can be preserved! Do you understand? ”

"But the heart of the Chinese and American imperialists will not die......"

Muto waved his hand with difficulty and said with a smile: "It's all nonsense. Even if you deceive the people, how can you believe it? He paused for a moment. After taking two breaths, he continued: "Now is a world war, and China, the United States, the Soviet Union, Germany, Britain and France are either pursuing world hegemony, or seeking to expand their territory and establish regional hegemony. However, this qiē is based on winning the world war, so winning the war is the first goal of the Chinese and American powers, and the destruction of Japan is not a trivial matter at all. ”

"But China has been shouting about Japan-China cooperation, and the United States is pressing forward step by step, bent on overthrowing our Japanese regime!"

Muto snorted lightly: "Chang Ruiqing is using the name of the Japan-China Federation to attract Chinese technical talents who have been exiled to China because of the revolution, as for the United States...... It's just that I want to find a reason to join the war, so that I can squeeze into this world war to get a piece of the pie. Their main target is not Japan at all, and it is not consistent...... Shinhyung, it seems that you have been so preoccupied with domestic rule that you have neglected the study of international affairs over the years, so that you are ignorant of the changes that are coming. ”

"Father, son-in-law is foolish, I don't know what you mean?"

"The original world war, according to the GCD, is called a world revolution...... That is, the fate of the international proletariat and the international bourgeoisie, although it is not entirely in line with reality, but there is some truth in it. However, the situation has now changed, and after the two Central Asian-Three Xinjiang Battles, the Romanian Battles, and the Poznan Battles, the two great powers in the international capitalist camp, China and Germany, have demonstrated their military power over the Soviet Union, and the United States has also expressed a strong willingness to enter the war after Roosevelt became president. ”

Muto's words were intermittent and seemed very difficult: "...... In such a situation, the world revolution was practically aborted. Of course, this does not mean that we have lost the war with the Soviet Union, but that the goal of the war has changed from the liberation of all mankind to the expansion of spheres of influence, so the world revolution is gone, and it is replaced by a world war. Shin-hyung, do you understand the difference between the two? ”

Takeda Heng shook his head blankly, the old man was right, his energy has indeed been focused on stabilizing the Japanese regime over the years, and he has not paid much attention to international affairs, nor is he interested in it, and he naturally does not know as well as the old Japanese military leader like Muto Nobuyoshi who dreams of becoming a strong country all day long.

Muto sighed and explained: "The world revolution is a war between the socialist camp and the capitalist camp, and the camps on both sides are clearly divided, and it is impossible for the Soviet Union to form an alliance with the powerful countries of the capitalist camp, because the goal of the Soviet Union is to destroy the entire capitalist system.

But now, the situation has clearly changed, because everyone has seen clearly that the Soviet Union simply cannot defeat the entire capitalist world. They had shifted from strategic offensive to strategic defense, and the goal had become to expand or preserve as much territory and sphere of influence as possible of the Soviet Union. So the main rival of the Soviet Union changed from the whole capitalist world to China, Germany and perhaps Britain...... China and Germany figured out how to annex the Soviet Union's sphere of influence and territory, and reached a bigger deal. And Britain wanted to recover India and the Middle East from the Soviet Union. If the Soviets were willing to abandon the Middle East and India, they might be able to reach a compromise with Britain and concentrate on China and Germany.

As for France and the United States, their relations with the Soviet Union were even more complicated, and the former adopted a strategy of supporting China and Germany and containing the Soviet Union when the Soviet Union had the upper hand. But it was only containment, not elimination, because France did not want Germany to annex Poland and the western territories of the Soviet Union, nor did it want China to turn south and annex French Indochina after settling the Soviet Union in the north. So at a time when the USSR was at a disadvantage. The French began to hook up with the Soviet Union, and there was some meaning of reviving the Franco-Russian alliance of the past.

The situation of the latter is even more complicated, purely in terms of industrial strength, the United States is almost equivalent to the sum of China, Britain and Germany, and is the country of choice for the world hegemon, of course. However, the U.S. government is constrained by its domestic system and cannot lead the country to devote itself fully to the struggle for world hegemony, and its citizens are afraid of a direct conflict with the mighty Soviet Union...... So as a last resort. Roosevelt would blindly press Japan and try to use Japan as a stepping stone for them to participate in the world hegemony war. ”

Hearing this, Takeda Heng smiled bitterly: "If we turn our backs on the Soviet Union, I'm afraid the United States will be even more reluctant to let go of the weak Japan, right?" ”

Muto smiled reluctantly: "Shinhyung, you haven't understood the overall situation yet, the current world war has gradually evolved into such a situation...... China and Germany are in one camp. France and the Soviet Union were one camp, the United States and Britain were relatively independent camps, and Japan was also a small independent player. Among them, the goal of China and Germany was to carve up the Soviet Union; The goal of France and the Soviet Union was to contain China and Germany; Britain not only wants to contain China and Germany, but also wants to recover India and the Middle East, and at the same time wants to maintain its world leadership from the United States; The goal of the United States was to seize Britain's world hegemony while containing China, France, Germany, and the Soviet Union; And what is our goal in Japan? ”

Takeda shook his head. I don't know how to answer. Muto Nobuyoshi lowered his voice and said coldly: "I don't know what benefits Japan can gain from such a complicated situation?" But I know that Britain does not want to hand over to the United States its long worthless hegemon. China also does not want the United States to expand its influence in the Western Pacific, and neither China nor Britain is willing to intervene against the United States! Therefore, as long as Japan shows the strength and courage to fight the United States, China and Britain may help us and support us in the fight against the United States! Moreover, the Soviet Union must also be happy to see such a situation, because the United States has always been the number one power in the capitalist camp, and once the United States ascends to the hegemonic throne, the first thing to be subverted is the regime of the Soviet GCD...... Shinhyung, do you know what the future holds? ”

Takeda muttered in a low voice: "Fight the United States, unite China and Britain, and keep your distance from the Soviet Union...... But how can Japan be an adversary of the United States? ”

Muto looked at himself, an expert in internal fighting, and an outward fighting ...... Well, the son-in-law of the dictator, who is a bit of a layman, let out a long sigh: "Xinheng, how to fight the United States, naturally there are the Red Army General Staff, the Red Navy Command and the Combined Fleet to consider, you just need to believe them, those are the best soldiers, and they will definitely be able to use Japan's military strength to the extreme." As for whether he can win the battle in the end, he can only do his best and resign himself to the fate of heaven...... But one thing you must keep in mind is that Japan definitely does not have the strength to deal with China, Britain and the United States at the same time! Moreover, Japan's strength is limited, so it cannot occupy too much territory, even if the soldiers below are talking beautifully, you must hold on, do not fight China's idea, let alone occupy LinkedIn Malaya and Dutch East Indies, otherwise it will definitely lead the Chinese over, and you should understand the truth that the puppet is not guilty of his guilt, right? ”

"This son-in-law understands." Takeda nodded solemnly, and the words of the old man seemed to be similar to Tukhachevsky's, and it seemed that he could not be wrong.

"That's good, that's good......" After saying so many words, Muto Nobuyoshi seemed to feel a little tired, gasped for two breaths, and then whispered: "So that I can go to the other world to ask the Meiji Emperor for his guilt, and by the way, I am asking if the Emperor is a descendant of God." Xinheng ...... Japan will be left to you to protect in the future. ”

Takeda Heng smiled bitterly, was silent and did not speak, until a long time later, his voice sounded faintly: "The people and the military have always wanted to expand the country's power, and I am afraid of ......"

"Hehe, all along, the Japanese have been educating the people and the military in this way, and you have been telling such stories for almost 10 years, right?"

"The son-in-law would like to ask my father to have a detailed discussion with the bigwigs of the navy and army to clarify the stakes."

"Okay, the old man will help you one last time, but don't expect too much, this kind of thinking has been dominant in Japan since the Meiji Restoration, and it can't be changed by an old man's words. Moreover, Japan's dream of becoming a strong country must also be maintained, after all, this is an important foundation for the Japanese to maintain their political power, otherwise the disappointment of the people will turn into anger, and the rule of the Japanese will fall apart in an instant. Xinheng, it seems that your future path is very difficult! (To be continued.)
