Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Kubota, the commander of the Third Air Force of the Japanese Army Air Force Kisarazu United Air Force, was extremely dissatisfied with a series of actions of his new boss, Admiral Yamamoto. He first dismissed the old commander, Major General Kisarazu, and imprisoned him.  There were three weeks, and then a guy from the navy was put in, making it clear that he was here to seize military power.  £à£à

    This guy named Yoshizawa is just a colonel, with a military rank as high as his own. Why should he climb over his head and point fingers? If the candidate to take over as the commander of the Kisarazu Combined Air Force is none other than himself, but Admiral Yamamoto insisted on inserting himself into the navy.  Systematic people go too far!

    Colonel Kubota did not dare to confront General Yamamoto with open swords and guns. He was not a heavyweight and the gap was too big. But for Navy Captain Yoshizawa who was at the same level and wanted to climb above him, he would not be polite. In other words  In other words, this is another way to refuse to carry out General Yamamoto's appointment.

    Regardless of whether they were officers from the Army Aviation Department or the Army Department, as soon as Kubota finished speaking, the whole room burst into laughter, very unbridled laughter. These were officers of Army origin, using this method to provoke Yamamoto.  The authority of an admiral expresses dissatisfaction with the naval system.

    In this regard, the two highest-ranking officers of the army, Lieutenant General Hiramiya, commander of the 15th Army, and Lieutenant General Hirose, commander of the 16th Army, did not stop them. On the contrary, they hoped to see General Yamamoto deal with the situation.  In such an embarrassing environment, after all, he is from the Navy.

    However, the laughter of the officers of the Army System and Army Aviation System quickly disappeared, they discovered.  General Yamamoto, who was sitting on the rostrum, showed no signs of embarrassment or anger. On the contrary.  His face became calmer and calmer, with a gentle smile on his lips, but they didn't notice the cold look in his eyes!

    The middle and senior officers of the Japanese Navy Combined Fleet who participated in the meeting were shocked in their hearts. They were all too familiar with the expression of the Commander.  Especially the protagonist Yoshizawa, who is ridiculed and despised, every time Commander Yamamoto shows such an expression, it is foreshadowing.  He's going to kill someone!

    "This Colonel Kubota hit the commander's gun, and no one can save him! Even if Prince Zain is present in person, it can't change his fate!" Colonel Yoshizawa muttered to himself.

    General Yamamoto at this moment.  Only then did I realize it deeply.  When his friend General Minamino had a private conversation with him, the true meaning of his words was, "Kill a chicken to scare a monkey!" That bastard Kisarazu was a monkey, hefty enough, but unfortunately there was no blood, and it was not enough to deter the officers of the Army Aviation Department.  Now.  Kubota jumped out again, and this monkey was destined to be killed.  He even thanked Kubota, a fool, for giving him an excuse to establish his authority.

    "Your name is Kubota, a senior officer of the Army Aviation Corps, right?" General Yamamoto said in a calm tone.

    Not to be outdone, Colonel Kubota said loudly: "Yes, Commander Yamamoto, Kubota has served the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force for many years! And he has always been proud of his ability to serve the empire!"

    "Very good!" General Yamamoto still had a warm expression on his face and said, "Since he is a senior officer of the Imperial Army, he naturally knows that the Imperial Army of Japan is invincible, conquers all attacks, and so powerful that it intimidates the enemy.  Courage, sweeping across the Pacific, relies on strict military discipline and obedience to orders. It is the same whether it is the navy or the army. Colonel Kubota, do you think this is the case? "

    General Yamamoto¡¯s words are impeccable and his military discipline is strict, which has always been an outstanding quality that the Imperial Japanese people are proud of. Of course, it is only reflected within the army. The massacre and crimes against the people in the occupied areas are another matter!

    Colonel Kubota was very confused, but he instinctively felt that something was wrong. It stands to reason that General Yamamoto should be furious and furious after he made such a fuss. He had already prepared to be dismissed.  Mentally prepared for confinement, but what kind of military discipline does General Yamamoto have?

    The momentum must not be weakened. Colonel Kubota still stiffened his neck and replied loudly: "Yes! Your Excellency, Commander, the Emperor of Japan, it is your bounden duty to be absolutely obedient!"

    "Okay! That's a very good answer!" The smile on the corner of General Yamamoto's mouth became more intense. Suddenly, he shouted: "Come here, pull out Kubota who refuses to execute the order and shoot him on the spot!"

    "Ah¡ª¡ª!" All the officers participating in the meeting were stunned, except of course the officers of the United Fleet. When Kubota, a guy who didn't know whether to live or die, jumped out to challenge the authority of the Commander, his words  The head is destined to fall to the ground!

    Several big-bodied Navy military policemen rushed into the venue like wolves and tigers. Without saying a word, they first handed over the gun on Kubota's waist, dragged it up and walked out. They were not polite to Rear Admiral Kisarazu and the Navy military policemen just now.  , not to mention a colonel, and someone who is about to??Shoot the guy!

    General Kubota suddenly realized that he was having fun, and Yamamoto was murderous. He wanted to shout, scream, and arouse the officers of the Army Aviation and Army systems to unite their hearts to the outside world and use the power of everyone.  , so that he could survive. However, those naval policemen were all veterans of arresting people. Whenever he had a chance to speak out, a military policeman's hand strangled his neck tightly, making it difficult to breathe.

    Colonel Kubota, whose face was purple, was dragged out of the venue by several naval policemen. From the beginning to the end, he was not able to shout a single word. Lieutenant General Hiramiya, the commander of the 15th Army, and Nakahiro Hirose, the commander of the 16th Army.  The two people looked at each other and stood up at the same time with a tacit understanding. They had to come forward. The person who was going to be shot was of Army descent after all. Among the officers present, we were the only two who were qualified and important enough.  Let General Yamamoto change the order.

    Unexpectedly, before the two of them opened their mouths, General Yamamoto waved his hand politely and said without any doubt: "Hirumiya-kun, Hirose-kun, there is no need to say more. We don't have time to waste on a person who is destined to die. What do you have to say?"  , let¡¯s communicate privately after the meeting, sit down!¡±

    Lieutenant General Heimiya and Lieutenant General Hirose looked at each other in shock. Seeing General Yamamoto's face as stern as a piece of iron, with an uncompromising attitude, they knew that no matter what they said, they could not save Kubota's fate.  Your Excellency, the newly appointed commander, is determined to use Kubota's head to establish his authority!

    The two most important military commanders present were both defeated. The other officers felt that they were not important enough. The one who still had the courage to stand up for Kubota was dead. The venue was deathly quiet. After a while, there were a few crisp sounds.  The gunshots came, and the officers of the Army Aviation Department couldn't help but shudder in their hearts!

    A naval military police lieutenant ran into the venue, stood at attention and saluted, and reported: "Report to your Excellency, Commander, that the execution order has been completed!" Well, a colonel of the Army Aviation Corps has given an explanation!

    "Well!" Admiral Yamamoto looked calm and said to Rear Admiral Matsuda, Chief of Staff of the Combined Fleet and Chief of Staff of the North American Combat Command: "Chief of Staff, please inform all the troops of the detailed process of this matter and the results of the handling, as a warning to officers at all levels.  We should take this as a warning. If anyone commits the crime again, Kubota¡¯s consequences will be his fate!¡±

    ¡°In addition, report the matter to Prince Zain, deputy commander of the Home Defense Command, and the Army Aviation Department of the base camp. Also, give Kubota¡¯s family members the pension benefits of senior officers who were killed in action!¡±

    Cold-blooded, ruthless, and iron-fisted, a Colonel officer would be shot if he said so. If it were him, he would not be much better. All the officers present finally saw the tough style of General Yamamoto, and they couldn't help but feel fear.  The look he looked at General Yamamoto also contained awe from the bottom of his heart.

    General Minamino, who had been sitting in the corner and observing the atmosphere of the meeting, nodded repeatedly and secretly sighed: "My dear friend, he is decisive in killing and without any hesitation. He shot a colonel in exchange for the obedience of the entire army.  It¡¯s worth it, it really doesn¡¯t disappoint! Fighting in the United States, victory is in sight!¡±

    General Yamamoto on the rostrum stared at hundreds of mid-level and senior officers with knife-like eyes, and asked in a calm tone: "Gentlemen, if anyone has different opinions on the headquarters' combat deployment, feel free to put them forward!"

    Just kidding, in just a short period of time, a major general was dismissed from his post and put in solitary confinement, a colonel lost his head, and that one dared to hit the muzzle of his gun without opening his eyes, "Hai! I will obey the orders of the commander!"  "All the Japanese officers, including the two lieutenant generals and commanders, stood up and replied loudly, the movement was very neat!

    "Very good!" General Yamamoto said with a smile on his face: "Since you have no different opinions, let's follow the order and adjourn the meeting!"

    At two o'clock in the morning on April 25, 1941, nearly 1,800 Japanese troops were deployed on land-based field airfields at Pearl Harbor, Midway Island, Wake Island, Johnston Island and other places in the Hawaiian Islands.  More fighter jets and bombers were parked neatly on the take-off runway in the darkness before dawn. The Japanese pilots were already sitting in the cabin, waiting for the order to take off. A large number of ground crews, with solemn expressions, looked at a plane on the runway.  plane.

    The atmosphere in all field airports is solemn and solemn. Starting from yesterday evening, the Japanese Army Air Forces on many islands in the Eastern Pacific began to make pre-war preparations nervously. After a busy night, all preparations were completed.  It has been completed, and what is left is that the eagles of the Empire of Japan pounce on the American land with heavy aerial bombs, and then return home with great honors!

    In the war room at Pearl Harbor, where Japan's North American Combat Command is located, Rear Admiral Matsuda, the chief of staff of the Combined Fleet and chief of staff of the headquarters, who served as the commander of the first air strike formation, was a little nervous and kept looking at his watch. At 2:30 in the morning,  Major General Matsuda ordered the staff:??¡°Order field airports in various places to report the pre-war preparations of the aircraft fleet to the headquarters!¡±
