Putting down the reply from the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, General Minamijiro, Prince Zaihito kept mentioning his throat and eyes, and fell back into his stomach with a "click", and sat back on the chair weakly, and a burst of indescribable exhaustion hit his heart.

Tilting his head and calming down, Prince Zaihito couldn't help but re-evaluate the person, the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, General Minamijiro, and Nanjiro's straightforward attitude when he called back was unexpected, and he didn't have any intention of taking the opportunity to talk about conditions, which was really rare.

With the current situation of the Kwantung Army, Minamijiro can state his reasons and refuse to carry out his order, after all, this order is a bet on the life and death of the entire Kwantung Army, even if the lawsuit is brought to the emperor's brother in the future, Minamijiro will not be punished severely, as for himself to find trouble in the future, it will be useless, or that sentence, that is, Nanjiro will be dismantled, and the opportunity is still lost.

The request for the other two sides to outflank the troops and speed up the march is completely reasonable and the meaning of the question, and besides, Nanjiro did not take care of everything, which truthfully explained the current combat strength of the Kwantung Army, and Nanjiro was able to comprehend his intentions, and through the superficial phenomenon, he directly touched the essence of the problem, and Prince Zaihito had to admire Nanjiro's strategic vision and keen judgment.

"Minamijiro is a rare general in the Imperial Army!" Jaeren couldn't help but sigh and think, "A unit like the Kwantung Army, a general like Minamijiro, but it's the descendant of that old guy from Koichi Yonechi, what a waste of this army!" Wouldn't it be like a tiger to be able to bring such a man under his command! Nanjiro's unexpected appearance strengthened Prince Zaihito's strong desire to bring General Minamijiro and the Kwantung Army to his faction.

"Bang bang bang!" There was another knock on the door, "Come in!" Prince Jaehito shouted with a kind attitude. I was deeply analyzing Nanjiro, weighing the possibility of pulling into my camp, and I was disturbed by someone's thinking, and I was really unhappy.

It was still Major General Yamada, head of the General Staff Headquarters of the General Headquarters of the Campaign, "Excuse me, Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, I received a telegram from Lieutenant General Tatsuaki Shinno, Chief of Staff of the General Headquarters, that it was too much for the Kwantung Army, so I was in a hurry to send it to you!" Major General Yamada said humbly, his gaze on Prince Zaihito's face. Swept it without a trace.

"Oh, Shinno's telegram, this guy, is a little sluggish, the telegram from the Kwantung Army has arrived. His telegram just came, what did he say? Prince Jaehito asked somewhat dissatisfied.

Major General Yamada's ears moved. A faint hint of information was captured. "His Royal Highness is dissatisfied with Lieutenant General Shinno?"

Major General Yamada's attitude, even more humble, opened the telegram and said: "Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, in the telegram of the Chief of Staff of Shinno, it is said that the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, General Minamijiro, has been decided. Resolutely carry out your orders, and an urgent military meeting is being held to make full arrangements for the preparation of the offensive. The offensive will begin at dawn tomorrow! ”

"That's all, nothing?" The dissatisfaction on Prince Zaihito's face became more and more intense, and he sent Shinno to the General Headquarters of the Kwantung Army, not as a mouthpiece or as an ornament, but to deeply understand the internal situation of the Kwantung Army, lay the foundation for his future intervention in the Kwantung Army, and look for opportunities, but now, Shinno has let himself down, and there is no useful situation, and even the telegram reporting Minamijiro's decision to carry out his orders has fallen behind, and it stands to reason that Shinno's telegram should have reached him as soon as possible.

Hearing Prince Zaihito's dissatisfied questioning, Major General Yamada affirmed his judgment, "Your Excellency the Chief of Staff of Shinno who came from the base camp is not able to satisfy His Royal Highness with his work ability, so wouldn't it be beneficial to himself?" The opportunity is great, it is reserved for those who are prepared, and I am the one who has been preparing for more than ten years! ”

Major General Yamada's heart was overturned, but he said quietly on his face: "Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, Chief of Staff Shinno also reported some information about the generals of the Kwantung Army in the telegram!" ”

Zairen frowned and stretched out, "I'll just say, Xinye won't be incapable of this kind of Cheng dù, he should get some things, this Yamada in front of him is a person who has just been incorporated into his faction, and there are some things that should be let him know!" Jae-in thought to himself, "Yamada-kun, then read the contents of the telegram!" He commanded.

"Yes, Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief!" Major General Yamada agreed, and read unhurriedly: "Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, according to my understanding and observation in the General Headquarters of the Kwantung Army for more than ten days, the Kwantung Army is within the Imperial Army, and it seems to be a system of its own, and the commander General Minamijiro has extremely strict control over the troops, and most of the deployments are arrogant generals, so it is really difficult to change his position. ”

If the telegram is here, although there is nothing new, it is also decent, reflecting some basic information, especially if you want to control the Kwantung Army, the commander-in-chief, General Minamijiro, is a key figure, this Jian Yì is very in line with Prince Zaihito's thoughts, and it also proves that Lieutenant General Shinno is not a person who does nothing.

Then, Zairen's previous small dissatisfaction is not at all zài, but unfortunately, probably Lieutenant General Shinno, in the General Headquarters of the Kwantung Army, was frightened by the actions of those fierce generals, and more likely, he felt that he had been greatly wronged and indignant, and in the last part of the telegram, he not only vomited bitterness and complained again and again, but also described the threats he had been subjected to vividly and truthfully, especially which general pulled out half of the command knife and wanted to kill his major general of the Kwantung Army the most. It made Lieutenant General Shinno even more angry.

In his telegram, he said: "Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, for the officers who ignore their superiors so much, and the officers who threaten the chief of staff of the headquarters so much, the military discipline of the empire has no deterrent effect at all in the eyes of this person, therefore, the headquarters of the Ministry of Justice, immediately in the name of the headquarters, transfer them out of the Kwantung Army and hand them over to a military court for trial. ”

The subtext of Lieutenant General Shinno is that today's bastard Major General dares to hold a command knife in front of him, then, tomorrow he will dare to dance with a knife and a gun in front of your Highness, I am your representative, being rude to me is being rude to you, and slapping me in the face is slapping you in the face.

The more Prince Zairen listened, the more unpleasant he felt in his heart, and his face gradually became gloomy, like the bottom of a black pot, not because of the situation described by Lieutenant General Shinno, how true it was, and the reaction of the generals of the Kwantung Army was expected by himself, but because of Lieutenant General Shinno's expression, he was very disappointed, and the chief of staff of a dignified general of the headquarters, the second person, was actually threatened by the officers of the subordinate troops!

Zairen considered not the issue of disgrace, but the anger and disappointment of Shinno, the chief of staff of the headquarters, being treated like this, seeing, Shinno's status in the eyes of the generals of the Kwantung Army, that is to say, Shinno went to the Kwantung Army General Headquarters for more than ten days, not only did not establish authority, but did not attract people, and was seen through by the generals of the Kwantung Army, otherwise, how could a major general dare to threaten the commander in person, this is an extremely rare thing in the Imperial Japanese Army!

"Enough! - Don't read on! Prince Zairen suddenly shouted, he didn't want to listen to it anymore, the more he listened, the more angry he became, "How could I send such an incompetent guy to the General Headquarters of the Kwantung Army, I don't know anyone!" If you don't say it, you will ruin your own plans! He thought to himself depressedly.

Hearing the violent drinking of His Royal Highness the Prince, and then looking at the face like the bottom of the black pot, it was about to flash and thunder, Major General Yamada immediately closed his mouth, and his heart was filled with a burst of pride, in fact, the content of the telegram, Yamada did not dare to tamper with a word, but when reading the telegram, he selectively accentuated the tone, changed the tone, or highlighted a few words, and lightly brought a few words, and the incompetent and cowardly appearance of Chief of Staff Shinno was vividly displayed in front of Prince Zaihito.

After such processing, is Lieutenant General Shinno still good, in response to the very folk saying of the Chinese, Major General Yamada, "I can't make soy sauce, but I can't make vinegar!" "It can be seen that Major General Yamada is a master of ignorance and concealment, and unconsciously, he stumbled over Chief of Staff Shinno and planted a thorn in Prince Zaihito's heart!

After binge drinking, Zairen realized his gaffe, no matter what he said, this guy Xinye is the chief of staff appointed by himself, he is embarrassed, and his face is dull, and he can't let Xinye's subordinates see jokes, doesn't that mean that he is blind and ignorant of people?

Prince Zaihito hurriedly slowed down his tone and said: "Yamada-kun, the telegram is placed here, you immediately call back to the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, General Minamijiro, and I am glad to hear that Nanjijun can take care of the overall situation, for the interests of the Japanese Empire, he does not hesitate to risk his life, and starts from where he can't start, which makes me very admired, after this battle, the great name of Nanjijun will definitely be famous in the imperial military circles, and the prestige of the Kwantung Army will live up to the praise of the 'flower of the imperial army'!" ”

"On the day when Zhukov's troops are awarded, it is the time when I will set up wine in Khabarovsk to wash the dust of the Southern Commander, and at that time, I will personally lead all the officers of the General Headquarters of the Far Eastern Campaign to the foreign territory to welcome the Southern Commander, and the Southern Commander and I will talk freely about the wine and discuss the great plans for the Far East after the war, and the wine and dinner will be the blood of more than one million soldiers of the Soviet Far Eastern Front, as well as the head of Zhukov himself!"

"As for what Nan Cijun asked, please rest assured, I have strictly ordered all the Far East Dispatch Army and the Korean Zhutun Army to rush to the predetermined assembly place at any cost, three days later, two days sooner, our Imperial Japanese Army, will be able to encircle the Soviet Army in the Far East battlefield, at that time, the siege of the Three-Way Army will be the day of the annihilation of the Soviet Army, once again to Nan Cijun to take into account the overall situation, all the officers and men of the Kwantung Army, express my sincere admiration, I will also present this matter to the Emperor of Tomorrow!"
