Chapter 1699 The Angry Emperor! (4th Watch)
Yamamoto Fifty-six wanted to evacuate all the Japanese navy from the island and hide it in the Pacific Ocean, but the generals of the army were very disdainful of Yamamoto's idea, they thought that Yamamoto was cowardly, although Yamamoto glared at them and explained, but the generals of those army still did not believe it.
"Yamamoto-kun, if you withdraw the navy, what should you do when China takes a landing operation, do you still want to stay in the Pacific?" Japan's War Minister Kurosuke Kumako looked at Yamamoto and asked.
"We will attack the Chinese transport fleet at night, others don't know the power of the Chinese Air Force, I think you know very well, Chinese bombers can also fly and bomb at night, although we will face danger in a sneak attack at night, but it is much better than during the day, this is also a way we have no choice!" Yamamoto Fifty-six looked at Kurosuke Kumako and explained.
After thinking for a while, Kurosuke Kumako nodded and said to the emperor: "I agree with Yamamoto-kun's idea, this is no way, if you let the navy stay in the Sea of Japan, it will be useless, now our first major defense task is to prevent the bombing of the Chinese air force, and the navy has little role in this area,
The second stage is to prevent the landing operations that the Chinese army has started, and at this time, the role of the navy is huge! ā
Those army generals and navy generals looked at him in surprise after hearing Kurojie Xiongguang's words, they didn't expect that Kurojie Xiongguang would actually help their navy speak, which was impossible before!
The Emperor heard it and thought about it for a moment, and then asked Kurosuke Kumako, "Just your army." How to block the sneak attack of the Chinese Air Force? ā
"It's impossible to completely block it, our planes are not the opponent of the Chinese troops at all, but we have to delay as much time as possible, let the troops on the side of the United States come to rescue us, or insist on the start of landing operations in China, once they land, we will attack the Chinese army head-on!" Kurosuke Kumako said firmly.
"I built yƬ, and now we have moved our scientific research institutions and some important instruments and equipment to the underground fortifications. China after the fighter broke through our defenses. Those bombers will definitely follow, and they will definitely bomb our important targets when the time comes! Yamamoto said again.
"Report, Mi Guo Telegram!" At this time, one of the emperor's chamberlains went outside the conference room and said. ļ¼
"Yo Si. Give me! As he spoke, the Emperor reached out and took the telegram. I started to look at it. After reading it. The emperor sighed silently, and Mi Guo's answer was as he expected,
The current United States does not dare to provoke China. But when he saw that the United States said that he wanted them to hold out for a few days, and when the United States would attack China from other places, he also had a glimmer of hope in his heart, after all, the United States did not completely give up on Japan!
"The United States said that if we hold out for a few days, they will attack China from other directions to attract China's attention, and then China will definitely withdraw its troops from the southeast coast and retreat to the country to defend!" The emperor explained to the generals.
"Hmph, the United States doesn't want to help us at all, they definitely don't dare to provoke China, if they want us to delay time, we won't be able to delay it for long now!" At this time, an army general stood up very angrily and shouted dissatisfied.
"Yaga!" Kurosuke Kumako turned his head to look at the general, and the general was very reluctant to do it, and his head was still twisted to the side, not looking at the direction of the emperor at all.
"I also know that this is an excuse for the United States, but it is not necessarily an excuse, and now we in Japan have no other way, in order to ensure that our Yamato nation can continue forever,
Yamamoto-kun, I order you, immediately after the meeting, load all the students of those schools along the coast and transport them to Australia, Japan itself, we can't hold it! "The emperor doesn't blame that general at all, and now he is not in the mood to blame anyone, the enemy is current, and now the Japanese generals themselves are not enough! If you punish that general now, it will be even more insufficient.
"Hey, I'll do it right away!" Yamamoto Fifty-six immediately stood up and bowed his head and shouted.
"The empire has been fighting for a few years, and I have to take all the responsibility, so, I don't blame you, I'm sorry for those people!" The Emperor said as he looked up at the ceiling again.
"Majesty!" When the Japanese generals heard this, they all immediately stood up, then knelt down on the open space next to the conference room and shouted to the emperor.
"Get up, this time we must buy a little more time for those people, China will definitely land and fight, so, Yamamoto-kun, don't say that you want to attack China at night, you just need to come to the island at night to transport those young people out, as for us, we need to pay the price for the defeat of this war!" The Emperor said to Yamamoto Fifty-six with great grief.
"Hey, we'll pay the price, but your majesty, you have to leave the island!" Yamamoto should have finished building yƬ road as soon as it was finished.
"Yes, Your Majesty, you must leave the main island of Japan, where there is the emperor, there is our Great Japanese Empire!" Kurosuke Kumako also shouted immediately.
"Well, I need to come with the warriors of the empire to defend the island, okay, don't talk about it, you all get up, now you should talk about how we can defend against the Chinese attack!" As he spoke, the emperor waved his hand at them and motioned for them to get up and speak.
"Your Majesty, if you don't agree, we won't get up, tonight, you must leave the island with the people of the imperial family and go to Australia, only in this way can we in Japan have hope of starting over!" Yamamoto fifty-six knelt there and did not get up, and asked the emperor to go with him.
"Yes, Your Majesty, if you don't leave, we won't get up!" The generals all shouted in unison.
"Baga, I can't go, this is a place that our royal family has guarded for generations, how can I leave?" The Emperor stood up angrily and shouted at the generals.
"But the Great Japanese Empire cannot do without the Emperor, Your Majesty, please leave here with me! There was still hope for the Great Japanese Empire! Yamamoto said with tears in his eyes.
"Baga, I won't leave, but those people from the royal family, including the crown prince, will leave with you, don't say more, I need to be responsible for this war! It was I who had buried all the hopes of generations of our Great Japanese Empire, and I need to apologize! The Emperor said firmly.
"Majesty!" The generals shouted again.
"Baga, shut up for me, get up, and discuss how to defend against China's attack!" The Emperor said angrily.
When the generals heard this, they had no choice but to stand up, and then those devils began to discuss how to defend themselves against the attack of the Chinese air force.
In the end, it was decided to mobilize all the air forces of Southeast Asia to the island, and pull out all the air defense weapons to defend important targets, and they knew very well that China would definitely bomb those important targets.
And after Yamamoto discussed with the admirals of the navy for a while, he was asked by the emperor to go out, because the emperor needed them to send the rest of the imperial family and those students out of Japan, which only their navy could do.
However, at this time, in China's Northeast Theater and Southeast Theater, the commanders of the two theaters were meeting in Beiping, and Commander Xu of the Northeast Theater and Li Zongren of the Southeast Theater had already set up a joint command in Beiping by Zhang Debiao, deputy commander of the Navy.
According to the order of the high command, Li Zongren was ordered to be the commander-in-chief of this joint command, Commander Xu was appointed deputy commander and chief of staff, and Zhang Debiao was appointed deputy commander and deputy chief of staff! Because Bai Chongxi was already the chief of staff of the Soviet Union, and he wanted to defend Germany, he had no way to come back and command the troops in the Southeast Theater, and all the Southeast Theater was commanded by Zhang Debiao, who commanded the troops in the Southeast Theater to fight!
There is no problem for Zhang Debiao to command the Southeast Theater, because the commanders of many units in the Southeast Theater were Zhang Debiao's subordinates, and Zhang Debiao was also a general, and the general could completely command the troops in a theater to fight.
Another is that they all know that Zhang Debiao was recently in the navy, and in terms of land warfare back then, he was also a fierce general, and the most important thing is that Zhang Debiao is Hu Hao's eldest brother, and the whole Chinese know that they would rather offend Hu Hao than offend Zhang Debiao,
If you offend Hu Hao, you can still leave a way to live, and now Bai Chongxi, the commander of the Southeast Theater, is an example, Bai Chongxi did not stumble on Hu Hao back then, and also sent a killer to assassinate Hu Hao, but Bai Chongxi fought very bravely and tragically in Taiwan, which directly made Hu Hao admire, and now the two are reconciled, and the relationship is also very good.
But if you offend Zhang Debiao, it will definitely be difficult to save your life, Hu Hao is really dead! Therefore, after considering this aspect above, Zhang Debiao was asked to command the troops in the Southeast Theater on behalf of Bai Chongxi.
At the Beiping Headquarters, those staff officers kept marking the airports on the map of the entire southeast and northeast, the number of bombers and battles, whether they were ready to take off at any time to participate in the attack, and whether the ammunition and supplies were ready, these staff officers were all following.
Li Zongren looked at his watch, it was already more than 6 o'clock in the afternoon.
"With less than 11 hours to go, I've finally waited for this day!" Li Zongren said a little heavily.
"Well, Li Shuai, this time we must blow up the entire island of Japan into ruins! Damn, I see how they are still coming to invade our country! Zhang Debiao said fiercely beside him.
"It's hard to estimate, I heard that those little devils are building houses out of wood, and after the explosion, those little devils will immediately cut wood to rebuild, and if they want to make Japan a ruin, they have to rely on Hu Shuai to do it!" Li Zongren shook his head with a smile and said
There is one more shift before 11 o'clock! (To be continued......)
