Chapter 783 The Fiasco of the Kwantung Army (5)
"The Yingmi ghost beasts are indeed unreliable! They want to regain control over Asia, and their hearts are punished!"
Angry roars spit out from Hideki Tojo's mouth and stirred up between the cramped cabinet conference rooms, stabbing the other ministers and the attendees' heads buzzing. Many people frowned, and they were willing to not listen, but they could not hide.
However, they agreed with Private Tojo's statement. The bad intentions of Britain and the United States were obvious. If they couldn't understand them, they wouldn't have to mess around.
Prime Minister Fumikoto, who was presented as a mascot, had a expressionless face and said nothing, leaving the sea and army below to spit on each other without any comment. Anyway, no one listened to anything he said, especially at this critical moment of life and death, if something wrong, it might become a target for the angry lower-level officer to vent his anger. It is very likely that such a thing would happen if he cut off his sword.
General Sugiyama Frown frowned, and the few people made a positive view of Hideki Tojo. He has to admit that although that guy is unreliable most of the time, he was unexpectedly insightful and pointed at the nail on the head!
After seeing the Navy's people accidentally injured by his map cannon, he couldn't help but jump up and refute. The conference room was about to become a vegetable market that could not be negotiated. He quickly stood up and scolded him hard, and then asked in a deep voice: "Don't mention it without constructive opinions! The most important thing now is to determine what we should do under the influence of the British and Western countries' national policy!"
People clearly show off their chariots and horses, just to let Japan use it as a gun. If they have already boarded the pirate ship, they cannot even hide. They can only consider how to gain the greatest benefit for their country in the confrontation. This is the right choice that ministers should make.
Navy Minister Shingo Yoshida deliberately expressed his opinion in a low and slow tone: "The Navy must fight the Chinese army to the end! In another two months, our new ship will be repaired. At that time, the scheduled decisive battle plan can be implemented! At least it must open up a smooth sea route for the empire! In the past few months, we will also carry out a resolute breaking operation, even if the last ship is exhausted, it must be done!"
Hideki Tojo hummed contemptuously: "You can only do this! The fleet built by the empire for fifty years is so corrupt. I am really sorry for the instructions of the 100 trillion people and His Majesty the Emperor!"
Yoshida Shingo ignored him with a cold face. The Navy was beaten up for no reason, and he didn't even know what the murderer looked like. He could not defend himself if he was too frustrated and completely lost all the face of the Yamato nation.
But there was something that could not help it. Oshiki Takijiro said angrily: "How good is the army? You are about to lose Manchuria. How can the empire landing plan be completed? Don't you need an explanation?!"
Prince Zairen of Xianyuangong heard this and shouted angrily: "Don't argue anymore! You guys, can you confirm the hostile attitude of the English and Midlands towards China and their plans to use force? This is related to the survival plan of the empire!"
Sugiyama Moto said in an unquestionable tone: "There is no problem! The British have made an action plan to send troops from India and attack southwest China through Myanmar; the French promised to attack Guangxi from Vietnam to restrain its third war zone power; the Americans will use the main force of the Pacific Fleet to restrain the Chinese navy, and when necessary, they will dispatch air forces to offset the advantage of China. The Russians will also advance south from the Far East, and it has become inevitable to divide the branches again!"
"Then you can rest assured! However, before they mobilize, the empire needs to firmly withstand the attack of the Chinese people. Now, the Kanto Army is a little difficult, what good suggestions do you have?"
Prince Zairen of Xianyuan looked around the audience with anticipation, but most of them immediately put on a concentric expression and shut up.
Just when he was about to be disappointed, Hideki Tojo spoke again and shouted: "I think! The recent improper operation strategy of the Kanto Army has directly led to its current passiveness! It is not feasible to blindly defend against China's combat. We must launch a resolute attack on cities that they need to protect with all their strength! These places in Peiping and Tianjin can be bombed!"
As soon as these words were spoken, most of the people in the audience changed their faces! They stared at the big-mouthed gentleman with their ghost eyes. Some wished they could rush up and slapped him first to relieve their hatred!
General Sugiyama Yuan couldn't help frowning and said, "This...is probably inappropriate! There is a foreign concession in Tianjin, and Peking is the ancient capital of a thousand years. If a bombing is launched, it will lead to very serious consequences!"
Needless to say, you know that if you bomb Tianjin, you will offend foreign devils and bomb Peiping? That is to force the Chinese to die!
Hideki Tojo was completely fearless and said carelessly: "In order to ensure the stability of the empire's foundation, it doesn't matter even if some Chinese people are jealous! The Westerners in Tianjin have almost retreated, and a few accidental injuries can be counted on the heads of Chinese people! For the sake of the great interests of the future, I believe they can understand that little sacrifice!"
No need to think, this thing is decisive and unreliable! Everything is used for reasoning and fiction. Isn’t this how military and national affairs are played?
Prince Xianyuangong had to interrupt him: "What kind of conditions and help do the Kwantung Army need to completely stop the attack of the China Legion?"
Tojo Hideki was Monkiyo, and he opened his mouth and said: "More fast fighters, more long-range cannons! More ammunition!"
This is just a waste of time? Sugiyama Moto sighed secretly and said, "I'd better tell the English and Milan about our difficulties! If we want us to hold on to China, they must pay enough price! Especially the United States should provide the empire with sufficient funds and weapons, at least to get the same treatment as the United Kingdom, and they will agree on this!"
"That's what it's decided!" Prince Xianyuangong made a decision and said earnestly, "It's related to the safety of the empire. Please be sure to work together and work together! I believe that difficulties are temporary. As long as we pass the most difficult stage, we will usher in a brighter future!"
The new Foreign Minister Yoeu Matsuoka, who has been silent, suddenly spoke out: "I suggest that the Empire should not completely reject the alliance between Germany and Italy! According to our observation, it is inevitable and quick for Germany to defeat the British and French coalition forces. Perhaps soon after, Germany will be able to occupy the entire Europe and become the most powerful force in the world! If the Empire wants to get rid of the shackles of Britain and the United States, it also needs external forces to help. I think maintaining a close relationship with Germany will be conducive to the situation after the breakdown of our cooperation with Britain and the United States in the future!"
This made many people present suddenly startle, and reminded the majority of the people as if they were enlightened. Minister of Military Order Fushimi Miyaki Hirokyo nodded and praised: "Hehe! The Foreign Minister's vision is indeed sharp and he thinks about it for a long time! Yes, the empire needs to have a longer-term plan! Yingmi is unreliable. At critical moments, we must have multiple preparations! I think, I would like to ask the Foreign Minister to work hard for this matter!"

This kind of behavior is no different from cheating. However, the wealthy Americans and the talented Roosevelt were not surprised by this. If the Japanese don’t mention more conditions, there will be ghosts!
Roosevelt tapped the Japanese "extortion list" with his furry fingers, his face shining with confidence, and he looked down on the world. His current physical condition is much better than in the previous two years. Thanks to the excellent medical team who returned from the City of Light and the special medicines he got back from there at a high price, although he could not completely cure his disability, his heart disease was almost as good as he was full of energy.
For his personality who likes fighting and proactive attacks, nothing is more valuable than a good body and energy.
Secretary of State Hull admired his style. Assistant Mr. Hopkins took the stack of papers to the secretary for classification management. Navy Secretary Frank Knox raised his white eyebrows and reminded: "Mr. President, you won't really give the Japanese dwarfs ten aircraft carriers, right? We don't have that many! Moreover, I don't think this unfamiliar nation will be so honest and obedient. One day, they will rebel and counterattack their masters!"
Hull also agreed with this. Roosevelt waved his hand disapprovingly: "There is no need to think too much! In the face of absolute strength, all resistance is futile! Our main enemy is still Hitler. Europe is the foundation of the civilized world, and ensuring the security of Britain is necessary. Japan is just a temporary powerful clown. The bad nature of the nation is destined to have no long-term plans and strategic vision. Look at the conditions they put forward, you can understand a little bit. Almost all of them can agree to them! The key is to curb the Chinese. The potential of this nation is too terrible. Once it rises, it will become the biggest opponent of America in the Pacific!"
No one would doubt Roosevelt's view. Although he could not say that he was great and absolute, he rarely made mistakes in the overall situation. Moreover, the action strategies he conceived himself also allowed the United States to bypass the obstacles of most opposition parties and isolationists and mixed them into the war. It has to be said that this is a terrible talent!
Secretary Knox had no objection to this. As an important bureaucrat supported by the president, he was very successful or not. It will determine whether Roosevelt's fourth president can succeed and be safe. The Navy must make great efforts to help.
Roosevelt's staff quickly came up with clever implementation plans, and immediately following the major American media, articles and news about the changes in the wind began to appear.
Some more radical white supremacists issued a statement saying that China is one of the members of the evil Axis supported by fascist Hitler. All their industries, weapons, equipment, and even national defense and military construction were carried out by the Germans. The purpose is to build a bridgehead against the civilized world in the Far East and the Pacific region!
China's continuous blow to Japan is regarded as the clarion call for the attack on the civilized world. Japan's Eastern nation, which advocates leaving Asia and entering Europe, has been partially accepted by mainstream Western society for decades, has been almost transformed in its bones. Their active acceptance of the attitude of Western civilization and the humble and studious jingshén proves that they are good students who inherit and continue the inheritance of Western civilization. It is obvious that the xenophobic and conservative China is the opposite!
As a master of Western civilization, the United States has the responsibility and obligation to help Japan resist the attack of evil Chinese forces. It cannot allow a group of populists who refuse to accept democratic transformation to gain the general trend. The United States should actively participate and further include them in general support actions like Britain on the basis of the US-Japan trade and friendship treaty.
I have to say that this kind of public opinion is very marketable. The Japanese have been beating and scolded for all these years and have not fought back. They have been operating in the West in a humble manner. Finally, they have been initially recognized by the white people, otherwise it would not be his turn to become the third largest naval force in the world.
The public opinion deliberately guided by certain forces may be distorted in recent years by a series of developments in the power of Zhu Bin Group, especially those products that have been exported to the United States in large quantities, resulting in the bankruptcy of similar factories and greatly affecting the US trade deficit, which is even more envious and jealous! The major consortiums that participated in the split of WorldCom Group last time, such as Morgan and DuPont, were fanning the flames and wished they could jump directly on the front.
Coupled with the previous distinction and secret support for Chiang Kai-shek's forces, an overall action plan to split China's local confrontation gradually emerged.
After the White House aides privately lobbying for wishes, especially the opportunity to divide China's high-value-added property after killing Zhu Bin, they generously shared the opportunity to divide China's high-value-added property, which increased Roosevelt's supporters a lot. The silver group, which was so dirty that they were all angry with Zhu Bin, also happily voted for Roosevelt. In this way, more than 60% of the supporters among the members of Congress successfully passed the new support plan for Japan.
The entire decision was surprisingly fast, as if Roosevelt had already been ready and was just waiting for the Japanese to come to ask for help!
After the Japanese received the news, they cheered from top to bottom! The Kwantung Army, who was beaten to the dust, was also a lot more excited and resisted several waves of fierce attacks.
These days, they have been terrified by the attacks of hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers! The Yiwulu Mountain position, which was highly anticipated, was tortured by thousands of bombers day and night. After several days, there were basically no complete fortifications in the outer positions. The soldiers hiding in the mountains waiting for the infantry to attack were breathing the choking smoke air. The explosions for many consecutive days made their ears almost deaf. The timid recruits even urinated countless pants, and the Korean soldiers who were arrested to make up for their numbers were even crazy.
Especially the train cannons driven from the railways on both sides, the rumbling sound of the 280mm heavy cannons kept pulling out like a soul-locking ghost crying. The shock caused by each 330 kilogram bomb dropped made the Japanese army in the mountains terrified and couldn't sleep at night.
