Chapter 870: The Collapsed Emperor Hirohito

Liu Tiehan's eastward command troops, in accordance with the order of the division commander Tang Qiuli, effortlessly occupied the largest city in the northeast, Mukden, in view of the fact that the supreme commander of the Kwantung Army, General Ueda Kenkichi, did not have any intention of returning to the army to rescue Mukden, which made Tang Qiuli, who planned this battle, a little surprised.

After sending a telegram to Liu Tiehan, who was commanding the troops at the front, the two reached an agreement that the Japanese had not yet been beaten, and that Ueda Kenkichi could make a desperate gamble, and that the Japanese Emperor Hirohito should not want this situation to occur.

After the end of the Fengtian Campaign, Tang Qiuli simply came ruthlessly and ordered Liu Tiehan to mobilize eight brigades of second-line troops, with a total of 210,000 troops, to carry out the next stage of the campaign, launch a fierce attack on the Liaodong Peninsula, and completely cut off the Liaodong Peninsula from the northeast in more than a day.

Emperor Hirohito was furious in the Imperial Palace, and he had already received a telegram from Yuo Ono from the General Staff of the base camp, and then he received a report that the Liaodong Peninsula had been violently assembled by the squadron, and he was in a very bad mood.

He originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of Nagano Shuzo to negotiate with Tang Qiuli, pay the least price, and buy enough time for Ueda Kenkichi to completely annihilate Timoshenko's troops, as long as he can take the Far East region of the Soviet Union, Hirohito will not feel distressed, but Nagano Shuzo has not returned yet, and Tang Qiuli has begun to do it here.

Moreover, as soon as he made a move, he was like a thunderbolt, and he took Mukden without effort, and then, there was an attack on the Liaodong Peninsula, and the development of the situation had exceeded Hirohito's expectations, he didn't want to do this, but there was no way, the troops that the Kwantung Army could fight were all transferred to the Far East and fought to the death with the Soviets.

Just by virtue of staying in Manchuria, those garrison troops that could barely be regarded as second-rate troops, Hirohito did not believe that he could withstand the fierce attack of Tang Qiuli's more than 200,000 troops, and the loss of the Liaodong Peninsula was a matter of blink of an eye, which was his lifeline, not to mention the rich resources of the Liaodong Peninsula, which was the military port of Lushun, and it was also a loss that the Japanese could not bear.

In Hirohito's Manchurian strategy, Mukden was more important than Xinjing, Xinjing was just a nominal Emperor Kant, which was just a signboard, the need of the Great Japanese Empire, as long as Hirohito was not happy, he could always let the Manchukuo Emperor who was covered under his own wings move his nest.

Mukden, on the other hand, is the economic, cultural, and political center of Manchuria, and the Liaodong Peninsula is more important than Mukden, losing the Liaodong Peninsula plus Liaoxi, nearly one-fifth of Manchuria's land is occupied by the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli, as well as the Lushun Military Port, and I don't know what the next move of the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli will be.

If he took the opportunity to capture the entire Manchuria, Hirohito didn't know how to deal with it, and it was too late to mobilize troops from the mainland, according to the intelligence of the military intelligence bureau of the base camp, Tang Qiuli transferred a main field corps to Shanhaiguan to station, this devil is going to fight in Manchuria, or to maintain a certain military pressure?

Hirohito couldn't even judge this qiē, but he knew a strict fact, at least for a week, the Kwantung Army troops remaining in Manchuria could not stop the attack of Tang Qiuli's troops at all, and in a week, according to the combat effectiveness of Tang Qiuli's troops, where could they fight?

Even if Kenkichi Ueda wiped out Timoshenko's forces and occupied the Far East, what was the point of losing Manchuria and taking the Far East? The Kwantung Army and the Soviet Army fought bloodily for more than three weeks, and they belonged to a tired division, could they still fight against Tang Qiuli's troops? If the Soviets had reinforcements arrived, they would not have missed this excellent opportunity to regain the Far East.

As the supreme commander of the Japanese army, Hirohito knew that with the current strength of the Kwantung Army, he could only choose to fight the Soviets or Tang Qiuli, and the Kwantung Army did not have such a large capital to fight on both sides, unless the entire empire's military strength was invested in Manchuria, but the interests of the empire were not only one Manchuria, but also a large territory of China, the rich land of Southeast Asia, and the traditional forces of Britain and the United States in Southeast Asia.

Hirohito carefully filtered these things in his mind several times, and felt more and more that the situation was dangerous, and there was no good countermeasure, all of which were added together, Hirohito's mood became more and more irritable, Originally, the Far East campaign that was about to end, the Great Japanese Empire had won steadily, but Tang Qiuli was stabbed in the back at this critical juncture.

This is definitely a fatal knife, which can cause the complete defeat of the empire in Manchuria, Manchuria, which has been in operation for decades, is definitely more important than the Far East of the Soviet Union in Hirohito's mind, how did Shuzo Nagano go with conditions, why didn't he drag Tang Qiuli?

"This hateful devil, my Hirohito's uncommon enemy, will cut off your head one day sooner or later," Hirohito's eyes were cold, almost squeezing out these vicious curses from between his teeth, Hirohito at this time, similar to a street scoundrel who can't beat the master, can only use vicious language to vent his helplessness and powerlessness.

"Your Majesty, the affairs officer of Nagano Shusan asked to see him outside the palace," the palace shì guard came in out of place to report, Hirohito heard it, the anger in his stomach could no longer be suppressed, this fool, I have already agreed to the conditions of that devil, as long as you drag him for a few days, you can't even do this little thing, it's really a waste.

"Let him in, I have something to ask him," Hirohito said predictively, and after a while, Shuzo Nagano came in with a cower, looking at his appearance, Hirohito's anger was even greater, burning his internal organs restless, his eyes were red, and he could smell the smell of fire from afar.

Nagano Shuzo came back from Chongqing to resume his life, he was also nervous, he knew that he had done a bad job, not only did he have to save a little bit, but also added an additional 5,000 kilograms of gold in the bad debt, Tang Qiuli in Chongqing The German Embassy in China put down the cruel words to him, Nagano Shuzo didn't believe it, it was just a threat, he has always believed in the armed forces of the Japanese Empire, and ran Manchuria for decades, how could you Tang Qiuli say that he would fight?

But as soon as he returned to China, he heard the news that Fengtian was lost and the Liaodong Peninsula was attacked, and Nagano Shuzo was completely stunned at once, not only did the matter go wrong, but also caused a big disaster, the 5,000 kilograms of gold, in front of the value of Fengtian and the Liaodong Peninsula, can be said to be worthless, Tang Qiuli is just looking for an excuse to start a war.

Thinking about it this way, Shuzo Nagano, who originally felt that a catastrophe was coming, was confident, otherwise, he really didn't know how to face the palace, this somewhat neurotic majesty, to be honest, few high-ranking officials in Japan like to fight with Emperor Hirohito, mainly because they can't stand his style.

But there is no way, people are big bosses, and they can't get around, Nagano Shuzo saw Emperor Hirohito from a distance, and he could smell the smell of fire from the body of this majesty, and he couldn't help but panic in his heart, and unconsciously, his brain was hung with beads of sweat.

By the time Shuzo Nagano finished talking about the entire negotiation, and before he dared to say anything about the 5,000 kilograms of gold, the black lines on Emperor Hirohito's face had already erupted, and he cried without tears, why did the Ministry of Foreign Affairs send such a stupid guy and a stupid pig to negotiate with that devil?

In the entire Far East, compared to 3,000 sets of oil extraction equipment and machines, the value is greater, even a person at the kindergarten level, can also be calculated, but this guy's head let the donkey kick, thinking that jīng Ming's small abacus, but it ruined my big thing, resulting in today's irreparable situation.

Hirohito stared at the blood-red eyes, looking at Shuzo Nagano deadly, eager to kick this pig-like guy to death, so angry that he couldn't speak, if that devil was so good at talking, the empire would not have suffered a lot of losses on him one after another, you used such a small trick to deal with the famous Tang Qiuli, isn't that asking for trouble?

Hirohito didn't even have the mood to talk nonsense with Shuzo Nagano, but Shuzo Nagano was not interested, and then said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Tang Qiuli took the opportunity to ask for the equipment of the empire, it is just an excuse, whether the empire gives it or not, he will send troops, and also, he also put forward a shameless request, on the original conditions, add another 5,000 kilograms of gold, of course the minister will not agree, this is the blackmail of the red luoluǒ, the empire can not succumb to the pressure of this devil, the minister refused on the spot, this is the whole process of negotiations." ”

Hirohito just breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the righteous and awe-inspiring Shuzo Nagano in disbelief, and asked, "What?" Five thousand kilograms of gold, is it true? Is it his additional condition? Shuzo Nagano nodded angrily, and with a "plop", Hirohito simply fainted.

Where is Nagano Shusan stupid, he doesn't know that he has such great power, and he has no gas to give the demigod and half-human emperor His Majesty, and the palace is full of big luàn, shì servants and shìnv, hurriedly called the imperial doctor, pinched people, pulled ears, and finally woke up Hirohito, "Oops", His Majesty the Emperor let out a long breath, and his body was as soft as noodles.

The weak eyes turned a few times, and saw that Nagano Shuzo was still in his ignorance, and he didn't know the strength that came from, so he stood up suddenly, his mouth trembled, and his fingers trembled and ordered: "Put this fool in prison for me, he should commit suicide by caesarean section to apologize, no, he should be executed by Ling Chi, and it is difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart."

shì Wei came up and dragged out Nagano Shuzo, who was still in the blank of thought, at this time, Nagano Shuzo reacted, he was a head loss this time, he was a Qin errand, and thwarted the blackmail of the devil Tang Qiuli, not only did he not take credit, but also took his life, even if you are the emperor boss, you can't be unreasonable, right?

So, Nagano Shuzo shouted desperately: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the minister is dedicated to safeguarding the interests of the empire for the sake of the Japanese Empire, His Majesty treats his subordinates like this, he is not satisfied, he is not satisfied" Hirohito waved his hand weakly, and was not interested in listening to Nagano Shuzo's shouting at all.

He was pondering, when he met Tang Qiuli, who was known as the devil of Zhina, such an extremely difficult corner, this huge amount of money, no matter what, could not be avoided, I am afraid it would be more.
