    Spreading bait all over the Pacific Ocean, but unable to catch the independent division fleet, the commander of the Japanese Navy's Combined Fleet, Yamamoto Yamamoto, was very disinterested. With a powerful combined fleet to escort, the base camp mobilized troops from the North American battlefield.  , progressed smoothly, and the regular escort did not interest him at all.

    After the decoys were withdrawn, all matters related to the escort of the Combined Fleet and matters dealing with the army generals were handed over to Lieutenant General Matsuda, Chief of Staff of the Combined Fleet. Admiral Yamamoto felt that he was very free, so he went to Honiara in the Solomon Islands.  After landing at the naval base, I would look at maps and review documents every day, or go fishing or take a walk on the island. My days were very leisurely, and I felt like I was returning home.

    But Yamamoto Isoroku is a person who is unwilling to be lonely at heart. He also knows that with more than 95% of the troops belonging to the North American Combat Command being transferred to the Australian battlefield, he will be looking for candidates for the top commander of the Australian battlefield forces.  It became a very important position.

    Since the last time, he was inexplicably dismissed from the position of commander of the North American Combat Command by the base camp. It would be a lie to say that he is not sad. General Yamamoto has not had much interest in commanding army operations. After all, that is not his best field.  .

    However, regarding the fact that his old boss, His Excellency Nagano Shuzan, strongly advocated for him to serve as the commander of the Imperial Australia battlefield again, he felt that he could hold this position.  For no other reason than to disgust that bastard Ito Yanzaburo.  He also has to be this commander.

    Every time he thought of this, General Yamamoto couldn't help but feel secretly happy.  Genzaburo Ito was really unlucky. Within a few days of being the commander of the North American Combat Command, almost all of the more than 1.6 million elite troops under his command were transferred to the Australian battlefield. It turned out that the most important position was  It's useless now.

    General Yamamoto has his own channels and knows a lot of inside information. The base camp is only for Ito Yanzaburo.  Leaving around 60,000 troops, it is said that this was personally decided by His Majesty the Emperor. It seems that Genzaburo Ito, the commander of the Empire's North American Combat Command, is now almost the same as the captain of the local garrison!

    The matter of escorting the combined fleet was left to the command of Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Matsuda, while Admiral Yamamoto himself did not forget to take out the military map of the Australian continent in his leisurely days every day.  Changing his role from Commander of the Imperial Navy's Combined Fleet to Commander of the Imperial Australian Battlefield, he is already preparing to take over this position.

    From the vast Pacific Ocean.  Returning to land again, the opponent they faced was not the Americans, but the Imperial Army was frightened by the defeat.  Several famous generals fell into disgrace, and the army internally feared a new opponent called "China Devil Tang Qiuli." This Chinese made life difficult for the Japanese Empire.  General Yamamoto also has the desire to fight against him, but he does not dare to underestimate such an opponent.

    For this reason, General Yamamoto specially sent a special plane to bring General Minamino Osamuyama, who was not getting along with Ito Genzaburo and pretended to be ill, and who still holds the title of Chief of Staff of the North American Combat Command, but is actually an idle cloud and wild crane, from Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.  Arriving in Honiara, Solomon Islands.

    When the two good friends met, they were both quite sad and felt as if they were in another world. General Minamino had lost a lot of weight, and his original bamboo pole-like figure became more and more skinny. It seemed that he had been penetrated by Ito Genzaburo.  The life of being in the cold palace and sitting on the bench is not easy.

    "Minamino-kun has lost a lot of weight, which really worries me! It's all Yamamoto's fault, and it's all Minamino-kun's fault!" General Yamamoto held the hand of General Minamino Shuzan who had just got off the plane, shook his head and said, with a sincere tone and a hidden look in his eyes.  There were tears.

    "Yamamoto-kun, there is no need to blame yourself. As the saying goes, 'People who have different paths do not agree with each other!' Genzaburo Ito is not good enough to work with!" General Minamino was also very excited when old friends met and recalled many past events on the North American battlefield.  , but he is a person who is good at controlling his emotions and said calmly.

    Arriving at the room, General Yamamoto said directly without any courtesy: "Minamino-kun, to be honest, Nagano-dono strongly recommended me to serve as the supreme commander of the Imperial Australian Field Forces. I wonder what Minano-kun has to say?"

    "Well deserved!" General Minamino Shuzan said concisely and concisely: "Today, the strategic focus of the empire has shifted to the Australian battlefield, and the largest heavy force group in the empire has been gathered on the Australian continent. The choice of this commander  , His Majesty the Emperor and the headquarters will definitely be cautious!¡±

    "According to my personal opinion, this position belongs to none other than Mr. Yamamoto. Moreover, the base camp has gathered heavy troops on the Australian battlefield this time with the intention of conducting a decisive battle with the troops of the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli. Therefore, the position of the supreme commander of the Australian battlefield is  Position is related to the future of the empire.Luck is particularly important. Yamamoto-kun's brilliant achievements on the North American battlefield are obvious to all. He should not be inferior to anyone nowadays!  "

    "Looking at the generals of the army, the famous generals of the past empire, such as Okamura Neiji, Matsui Iwane, Itagaki Seishiro, Nanjiro, etc., are all extraordinary talents. Unfortunately, they all fell into disgrace and hated the battlefield. It seems that only those who can take on important responsibilities are  Ito Yanzaburo is arrogant, stubborn and rigid-minded, and he lacks strategy!"

    "In addition, when fighting on the Southern China Continent, we suffered a disastrous defeat at the hands of the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli and lost our troops. I am afraid that there will be a shadow in my heart when facing Tang Qiuli. It is absolutely impossible for him to take on such a big responsibility. His Majesty the Emperor and the base camp will not treat him as such."  Taking this into consideration, the most suitable candidate is only Yamamoto-kun!¡±

    "Minamino-kun is too high-minded, Yamamoto is too ashamed to deserve it!" General Yamamoto said modestly, and then changed the topic, "If I strongly recommend Minamino-kun to serve as the supreme commander of the Australian battlefield in the empire, what do you think of Minamino-kun?"

    Seeing that Admiral Minamino was about to speak, Admiral Yamamoto continued: "I'm not talking nonsense. Just imagine, if Minamino-kun is in charge of nearly two million Imperial Army, and I command the Imperial Navy's combined fleet, you and I respond to each other on sea and land, and we are the armies of each other.  Wouldn't it be great to fight fiercely on the Australian continent and defeat the powerful enemy, Tang Qiuli?"

    "Yamamoto-kun, I am not a commander-in-chief. It is my strength to be a counselor behind the scenes!" General Minamino smiled calmly and expressed his attitude. He also knew that what Yamamoto said just now was definitely sincere and was definitely not a test. But he  I know that I can't do the job of this commander!

    "If I serve as the supreme commander of the Imperial Australian Field Forces, would Nanno-kun be willing to condescend to serve as my chief of staff again?" General Yamamoto said without being pretentious.

    "Hahaha!" General Nanye chuckled several times and replied: "Dare you disobey your order? It is Nanno's honor to be able to join hands with Yamamoto-kun again, across the Australian battlefield, facing powerful enemies in the smoke of gunfire, and serving the empire!"  "

    "Okay!" General Yamamoto shouted, "Guards, bring the wine. Today, Nanno-kun and I will have a drink, and tomorrow, we will go to the battlefield together. I swear to kill the enemy chief Tang Qiuli under his horse!"

    "Two senior officers of the Japanese Army and Navy who worked together on the North American battlefield and beat the Americans to pieces now have the possibility of joining hands again.  It also greatly increased Yamamoto Isoroku's confidence.

    And Lieutenant General Morishita, the commander of the Japanese garrison in Australia in Darwin, northern Australia, is also scratching his head and anxiously waiting for orders from the base camp.  He could take office and command more than two million elite Imperial Army troops.  Just thinking about it made Lieutenant General Morishita feel very excited!

    Three days later, the order from the base camp finally came. Lieutenant General Morishita impatiently took the telegram, but after he read the content, he felt as if a bucket of cold water with icy particles was poured on him, and it penetrated from the inside out.  My heart is cold.

    "Headquarters ordered that the current commander of the Imperial Army in Australia, Morishita Shiro, upon receipt of this order, immediately hand over all military duties to the Chief of Staff, Major General Matsuo Kuai, return to the mainland, and find another appointment. This order will be implemented immediately, and no excuses can be used to delay it!  "This is the entire content of the telegram from base camp.

    "Why is this happening?" Lieutenant General Morishita roared with grief and anger. Venus was flying around in front of his eyes, shaking a few times. If Major General Matsuo, the chief of staff, was not holding him up, he would have fallen to the ground. He couldn't understand why.  The throne of the supreme commander of the Empire's Australian battlefield forces will be lost at the drop of a hat?

    He was still urging me so urgently, as if he was afraid that he would not leave. What if he was transferred back to the mainland and had another appointment? This is another way of saying that he was sitting on the bench. Looking at the Imperial Army generals, those who were transferred back to the mainland were not beaten.  Into the cold palace, reduced to a marginalized person!

    The chief of staff, Major General Matsuo, looked at his former boss with pity. To be fair, in Major General Matsuo's mind, Lieutenant General Morishita was not a qualified commander, especially on the Australian battlefield.

    Just some time ago, when facing the strong offensive of the China Independent Division, Lieutenant General Morishita's panicked and chaotic behavior, sending several emergency telegrams a day to the base camp asking for help, but failing to take effective countermeasures, has already been reflected in the situation.  The base camp currently lost points and was completely embarrassed in front of the officers of the Imperial Army Headquarters in Australia.

    "Matsuo-kun, can you tell me who took over my position?" Lieutenant General Morishita asked with his eyes straightened and lost his mind.

    Major General Matsuo shook his head, feeling even more disdainful of him, "General Morishita, let me correct you. I am not taking over your position, but the new Supreme Commander of the Imperial Australian Battlefield. He will be responsible for commanding all Imperial Army troops on the Australian battlefield. Commander  The officer will be concurrently appointed by Commander of the Naval Combined Fleet, Commander Yamamoto Oh-san!¡±

    "Understood!" Lieutenant General Morishita nodded sadly, regardless of the background of the base camp., in terms of qualifications, prestige, and record in the army, he is no match for Yamamoto Isoroku.

    "If other army generals come to occupy their positions, they may have to go to the base camp to complain after returning home, Yamamoto Isoroku, he has no temper!"

    At the same time, at the Honiara Naval Base in the Solomon Islands, Admiral Goto Yamamoto, who worked with Admiral Minamino on the Australian map all day long, also received orders from the base camp.
