No matter from which angle of analysis, Emperor Hirohito's worries are justified, dominating Asia is not only Hirohito's ambition, but also Japan's basic national policy, defeating and occupying China on the Asian continent, in Southeast Asia, completely eliminating the power of Britain and the United States, is the strategic direction that Japan has determined decades ago, and the collision with Britain and the United States is inevitable.

Whether it is the Americans or the Japanese, they know very well in their hearts that sooner or later there will be a war between the two sides, but it is only a matter of time, for the Japanese side, this kind of collision occurs, there is an important premise, that is, to defeat China, but after a few years of war against China, Japan not only did not complete the intended strategic goal, but lost a large number of elite troops, until the wolf bèi withdrew from China.

The only reason for this qiē is that there is a devil Tang Qiuli, who has become the nightmare and nemesis of the Great Japanese Emperor's ** team, so the Japanese base camp was forced to adjust its strategic direction, occupy the Indochina Peninsula, and use it as a base, the north can wait for the opportunity to attack the five southwestern provinces of China again, and the south can covet the Americans' sphere of influence.

In Asia, especially in Southeast Asia, there are four military forces, the Chiang and Tang forces of Britain and the United States and the Nationalist government, and only Britain and the United States and Tang Qiuli are within the scope of the consideration of the Japanese, and as for Chairman Chiang in Chongqing, he is no longer worthy of being the opponent of the Japanese Empire, and among these three forces that can be called opponents, the British are the weakest link.

Especially when the European war broke out, the British were beaten out of breath by their allies the Germans, and the local people were still too busy to take care of themselves, how could they still have the energy to take care of Southeast Asia, which was tens of thousands of miles away, so. The Japanese chose the Indochina Peninsula as the first target of their Southeast Asian strategy, and it should be said that the Japanese decision-makers' vision was very accurate.

Indochina Battlefield, the war against the British. The start was quite good, and the Japanese had already touched the wreath of victory, but at this moment, the hateful devil Tang Qiuli jumped out again, effortlessly shattered the dreams of the Japanese, and dealt a severe blow to the Southeast Asian dispatch army.

The British were beaten out of Indochina by the warriors of our Yamato nation. Tang Qiuli, the devil of China, snatched the wreath of victory from the hands of the imperial army, and enjoyed the fruits of victory effortlessly. This made the Japanese people from top to bottom, in addition to the hatred of Tang Qiuli, there was more pathological hatred.

The Japanese base camp also gradually realized that the main obstacle to domination in Asia was not the British. It is not an American, but a warrior of nearly a million Yamato nations, Tang Qiuli, the devil of China who died on the battlefield, he is an inseparable knot for Emperor Hirohito's hegemony in Asia. If Hirohito was asked to choose the object of destroying Miè, he would be the first to choose Tang Qiuli.

The Americans were the future adversaries of the Great Japanese Empire. And Tang Qiuli is a big trouble for the empire, if possible. With Emperor Hirohito's character, whether it is a future opponent or a big trouble, it must be completely eradicated, but Hirohito knows that his family background, with Japan's existing national strength, can only choose one direction of attack.

Moreover, the Americans put on a high posture of not interfering with Asian affairs, so as to convey the signal of the United States' friendship to Japan, which is also what the Japanese need, but the Allied Manila agreement made Emperor Hirohito see his naivety, and the Americans will not allow the hand of the empire to reach their sphere of influence after all.

At the same time, he fought an opponent, Emperor Hirohito was not crazy enough to that extent, the Americans were no better than the British, World War I, the Americans stayed outside the war in Europe, and made a windfall, and when the war was about to end, they reached out and made a lot of money, and they were fat and strong, and they took the Americans as the first target, from Emperor Hirohito to the Japanese people, they did not have that confidence, only the Japanese Navy, shouting all day long to dominate the Pacific Ocean.

From that point of view, the devil Tang Qiuli was the first target to be eliminated, the dignified Japanese Empire, which withdrew from Chinese territory, thought that in this way, it would no longer have any intersection with this hateful and terrible opponent, but Emperor Hirohito found that he was wrong, Tang Qiuli took the initiative to confront the empire in the Indochina Peninsula.

Since it is unavoidable, it can only be fought, which is also the main reason why the Japanese base camp insists on Ito Yanzaburo and must attack Tang Qiuli first, and the main force of the independent division must be defeated or eliminated in World War I.

Only by solving Tang Qiuli can we turn around and deal with the Americans, Hirohito does not dare to drag it out, Japan's national strength cannot afford a protracted war, and Emperor Hirohito believes that if the imperial army is the first to attack the Americans, the devil Tang Qiuli will never stand idly by, and if the imperial army attacks Tang Qiuli, the Americans may not be able to stick a knife in Ito's back.

Having dealt with the Americans for many years, Hirohito understands too well the selfishness of the Americans, the most obvious example of which is that although the United States is one of the initiators of the Allies, the huge bilateral trade with Japan has never stopped, on the surface, it is an enemy and an opponent, secretly, but the trade is continuous, especially military supplies, this is what the Americans do, even Emperor Hirohito, who thinks he is despicable and insidious enough, has to admire.

The Allied Manila Military Mutual Assistance Agreement made Hirohito see the crisis, and Tang Qiuli in the Indochina Peninsula must be solved as much as possible, otherwise, the selfish Americans, once they see that there is an opportunity to take advantage of and be profitable, will definitely reach out and take a hand, and at that time, the empire's Southeast Asian dispatch army will really be the enemy.

Ito Yanzaburo's article Chen, after Emperor Hirohito read it, thought it was very reasonable, Hirohito also knew that the wounded Southeast Asian dispatch army, in terms of the current state, had little chance of winning against Tang Qiuli's independent division head-on, but he couldn't help but harden his heart and ordered Ito to carry out the Burma battle plan.

The biggest concern and worry is still the unpredictable Americans, the Burma battle plan was issued in the form of the emperor's imperial approval, Hirohito did not have the bottom of his heart, and issued a national mobilization order, the formation of new divisions in the mainland, the preparation of the South Pacific Front, the plan is 450,000 people, including 15 infantry divisions, five heavy artillery brigades, three tank brigades, one aviation team, and other auxiliary forces, as the main force to fight the Americans in the future.

In fact, this is a strategic reserve formed by the Japanese base camp, once Ito's Southeast Asian dispatch army loses the battle in Burma, and then the pessimistic judgment, Ito's troops will be severely damaged by Tang Qiuli's independent division or the entire jade will be shattered, and the South Pacific Front will be on top.

From this point of view, Emperor Hirohito was not very optimistic about the battle between Ito and Tang Qiuli, but he was forced to order Ito to carry out the plan for the battle of Burma, and on October 5, Emperor Hirohito expressed his concerns to the ministers at the Imperial Council.

Emperor Hirohito looked worried and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have issued a plan for the battle of Burma, but in my heart, I am really worried about the fierce independent division troops in the first battle, and the commander-in-chief of the Southeast Asian Dispatch Army, General Ito Yanzaburo, is telling the truth, but how can he understand my painstaking intentions? Ladies and gentlemen, who has the proper way to ensure victory in the battle of Burma? ”

The ministers immediately understood that this seemingly routine imperial meeting, in fact, has only one theme, that is, how to ensure that Ito can kill Tang Qiuli's independent division in Burma, although what the emperor said is vague, it is a euphemistic reminder to all the bigwigs, it's time to share my worries, don't look like a dog, take out the little bezoar dog treasure in your stomach! ”

Family affairs, family knows, all of you here are high-level Japanese decision-makers, Ito's current situation, they all know it, no one seems to be optimistic about Ito's battle against Tang Qiuli, but this is the decision of the emperor Xià himself, as far as His Majesty's temper, the guy who doesn't know the weight of the head and the weight of the egg, dare to be the song of the horse? You have to make a mess, you can't find yourself happy, right?

What good way can the ministers, who doesn't want that guy Ito to be able to kill Tang Qiuli, but there is no way, several famous generals in the empire are folded in Tang Qiuli's hands, this branch of the devil is simply invincible, and he can't deal with it, looking at Hirohito's eyes, they are all dodgy, or they are low-eyebrowed, or they are frowning and thinking about it, but none of them speak.

Hirohito's eyes were full of disappointment, and he looked at the eyes of the ministers, extremely sad, as if to say, "How did I raise a bunch of waste like you, who usually look like dogs, compete for flattery and invite pets, fight for power and profit, and once there is a benefit, the head is sharpened and drilled in, but when the empire really needs it, they all become dumb?" ”

In the unbearable dreary, the air seemed to freeze, and Major General Hashimoto Ryutaro, head of the Special Tactics Research Headquarters of the base camp, got up, bowed to the emperor, and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen Hashimoto has something important to do, but it is inconvenient to say it on such an occasion," Everyone here, who is not older than Hashimoto and has more authority, is a figure who calls for wind and rain in the Great Japanese Empire.

Hashimoto is in front of them, not even a small character, many people even hear about this guy for the first time, can participate in the imperial meeting, and they don't know that they are stained with the light of that big guy, after listening to Hashimoto's words, there is no one who is not tired of it, "Ho! Is there really a guy who doesn't know how light his head and heavy eggs are, and he thinks he's a wolf when he wears a leather jacket? There are words still behind our backs, I really don't know the depth! ”

Hirohito looked at this army major general with gold wire glasses, fair skin, and polite manners, if it weren't for this military uniform, similar to a university professor, since he dared to say something in front of all the bigwigs at the imperial meeting, he might have some fame, so let's listen to it.

Hirohito waved his hand and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, today's meeting is over, and Hashimoto Aiqing remains," the ministers left without thinking, and in the empty hall, there were only Hirohito and Hashimoto......
