Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Nan Yunzhong's words once were strong enough. If you want to file a complaint, you can do whatever you want. No one will stop you. I'm not afraid. I want to be my boss. It's possible. However, I'm a pig and I won't serve you anymore.  , what can you do to me?

    "You. ¡Ó" General Ito Yanzaburo was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot. Talking to this under-steamed and under-cooked hob meat was so annoying that it cost one's life!

    The eyes of the two people intertwined in the air, colliding with a series of sparks, "Let's go!" Ito Yanzaburo squeezed out one word from between his teeth, and Nagumo Chuichi didn't even move his buttocks. He didn't say a word, and looked at it with a straight face.  The furious Ito Genzaburo stormed away. He had already lost his face, and he still practiced these vain etiquette, which was of no use!

    General Nagumo Chudai was not worried about Ito Genzaburo reporting his treachery to the base camp. He was confident in his heart. Admiral Nagano Shuzan, the Navy Minister, sent him a secret message, "As far as the current battlefield situation in Australia is concerned, the Army is the leader."  Lord, the combined fleet should focus on preserving and restoring its strength, and should not easily get involved in war. Everything should be based on the orders of the Navy!"

    The secret message Nagano Shuzan sent to Nagumo Chuichi had a reason. Three days after Yamamoto Isoroku commanded the combined fleet to fight with the land-based aviation force of the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli in the inland waters of the Southwest Pacific, the fleet's aircraft carrier aircraft  The loss can be described as huge.

    Originally, Nagano Osamu, in his capacity as Minister of the Navy, urged the base camp¡¯s military logistics department to give priority to replenishing the losses of the combined fleet¡¯s carrier-based aircraft. According to the imperial expenditure convention, priority must be given to replenishing naval equipment, as for the army.  Just stay back.

    But everything is unexpected, and Ito Yanzaburo requested a telegram to replenish a large number of heavy equipment and combat aircraft for the Australian Front.  There was a conflict with the need to supplement the Navy's combined fleet with carrier-based aircraft.  However, the current military production capacity of the empire can only satisfy one party first. For this reason, the Minister of War, Koichi Mineuchi, and the Minister of Navy, Shuzan Nagano, were arguing. In the end, Emperor Hirohito made the final decision to give priority to supplementing Australia.  Heavy equipment and combat aircraft needed by the front army.

    so.  Up to now, more than a month has passed since the three-day air battle. The number of carrier-based aircraft replenished by the Combined Fleet is less than 1%. The current number of carrier-based aircraft of the Combined Fleet is seriously lacking.  Therefore, on the one hand, Nagano Osamu did not dare to use the Combined Fleet carrier-based aircraft to consume the army.  Secondly, I also have a bit of resentment in my heart, complaining that His Majesty the Emperor is partial!

    With Naokata's sword in hand, how could Nagumo Chuichi be afraid of the threat of Ito Genzaburo?  Moreover, with his dogmatic and rigid command style, he is unwilling to take advantage of the combined fleet's current carrier-based aircraft assets.  The icing on the cake for the Army, even without Nagano-dono's secret message.  He would not order aircraft carrier-based aircraft to do the work of the land-based air force.  Are you not doing your job properly?

    After Ito Genzaburo's threatening telegram arrived at the base camp, it worried the army's big boss Miuchi Yonei and others. Yoneuchi Kouichi knew that even if he used a knife to force the local arsenal to work day and night,  , and it is impossible to complete the number of heavy equipment and combat aircraft required by Ito Yanzaburo in a short period of time.

    Moreover, the Ministry of War and the General Staff cannot force Ito Genzaburo to immediately launch a full-scale counterattack. The Battle of Australia is related to the future and destiny of the Japanese Empire. It can be said that the empire has already placed its bets on Australia.  Due to the lack of weapons and equipment, the Australian front army suffered a disastrous defeat or suffered heavy losses, making it impossible to complete the established strategic goal of wiping out all the Chinese independent division troops on the Australian battlefield.

    The consequences are quite terrible. His Majesty the Emperor is furious. If we investigate, who will bear this responsibility?  Even if Ito Yanzaburo is used as a scapegoat, there must be a higher-level unlucky guy in the base camp. I am afraid that Koichi Yoneuchi, who is the chief of general staff of the base camp, will bear the brunt, so no one dares to give this order!

    Taking your time is not enough. The empire has more than two million soldiers gathered in northern Australia. The daily consumption of people eating horse chews is an astonishing figure. If it takes a few months, maybe there will be no need to fight the decisive battle in Australia. The empire  Will be dragged to death.

    There was no need to rush or be slow, and the only way was to purchase weapons and equipment from other countries. Therefore, a group of ministers, led by Koichi Yoneuchi, went to the palace to see Emperor Hirohito. The matter of paying for money had to be approved by His Majesty the Emperor.

    Emperor Hirohito, who looked quite haggard, half-closed his eyes. After listening to the ministers' presentation, he was speechless for a long time. After a long time, he sighed and said: "I know your difficulties, but I can't let this affect the decisive battle in Australia!"

    "I have thought about it and bought weapons and equipment from abroad. The empire must do its best to meet the needs of the Australian Front. I still have some savings in my inner palace. I will put them all out this time. I would rather do it myself.Son, in addition, you can also call on the people in the country to donate. This is a decisive battle involving the life and death of the empire. My people will understand and support it!  "

    "Oh, what Emperor Hirohito said is so touching. His majesty, the Emperor of Japan, spent his own money to purchase weapons and equipment for the Imperial Army. It's as touching as you want.

    As soon as Minai Hikaru waited for the ministers, they were crying until they had runny noses and tears. They all blamed themselves and forced the Emperor to take out the money from his pocket. It was their own sin. Then, these ministers also expressed their determination,  Follow the example of His Majesty the Emperor and donate all your belongings, even if from now on, your wife and children will eat chaffy vegetables and beg on the streets, you will not hesitate!

    Emperor Hirohito was also greatly moved. The monarchs and ministers held each other's hands, with tears in their eyes. They were so moved that each other had money to buy weapons and equipment. All that was left was to choose who to buy.

    When it comes to the excellent performance of weapons and equipment, Germany is the first choice of course. But now the relationship between Germany and the Empire of Japan has dropped to a freezing point, and they are just going to have to fight with each other. If they can buy weapons and equipment from the Germans now, the Germans can  Sell ??it to yourself?

    Not to mention, the Japanese are definitely thick-skinned. A few days later, they sent a purchasing group with real money in their arms and flew to Germany anxiously. The Japanese have their own unique thinking.  Returning to business, they are two different things. Is the so-called cold politics and hot economics?

    Isn't that what the Americans were like at the beginning? On the one hand, they declared war on the Empire of Japan and were preparing for a big fight. On the other hand, ships of strategic materials continued to flow out of the United States, passing through the Pacific sea route, and reaching the mainland of the empire, supporting the empire.  I don¡¯t believe that it is necessary for the war. The Germans are not tempted when they see the white money?  If you don't make money, you are a fool!

    After the Japanese arms procurement group arrived in Berlin with full confidence, they immediately met with the bosses of the German party, government and military, as well as the bosses of major military industrial enterprises, and then placed a large number of orders. Of course, the money was only enough for them.  Part of it is a deposit, and the rest requires a loan from the German government. However, the Empire of Japan does not use your German loans in vain, and the interest rate given is definitely the highest!

    However, obviously the Japanese guessed wrong. The German head of state Hitler would never dare to do this arms deal with the Germans. It is of course a good thing to make money, especially when the Japanese want a loan and the interest they give is similar to that of a loan shark. This is  Business, all military factories in Germany will make a lot of money. When the military factories make money, it means that the German government makes money, but when will the points be scored!

    Hitler felt like a mirror in his mind. The Japanese bought so many weapons and equipment just to use them on the battlefield in Australia. His old friend Tang Qiuli was confronting the Japanese with red eyes in Australia and was about to start a fight!

    At this time, Hitler would never dare to sell a bullet to the Japanese. Originally, it was a bit clumsy to let go of the more than one million Japanese troops on the North American battlefield. Now, he has to sell weapons and equipment to the Japanese.  The Japanese, then, the Japanese used German-made weapons and equipment to attack Tang Qiuli's independent division troops. Thinking about it, Hitler broke out in a cold sweat.

    If this staggering amount of arms deal is really made with the Japanese, then the last personal relationship between him and Tang Qiuli will be gone. If the Japanese want to hit another target, Hitler will not hesitate.  Order, accept this big deal, make no money, and have your head squeezed by the door panel?  With Germany's current strength, who dares to point fingers and say anything?

    But when it came to Tang Qiuli, he didn't dare. His old Chinese friend had now grown into a military force that he and Germany did not dare to ignore. He could be called an equal military force. Hitler could even guess that once Germany and the Japanese  What would Tang Qiuli's reaction be after making this deal, relying on an ancient country with such a large land area?

    This guy with a strong personality and full of wits, who always surprises people, might join forces with the Americans to trap the German army in the North American continent and be unable to escape. He believed that Tang Qiuli could do such a thing  Come on, that guy is a ruthless person who can't tolerate sand in his eyes and will retaliate for every vengeance, let alone a fuel-efficient lamp!

    Between the Japanese and Tang Qiuli, Hitler obviously feared and valued the latter. He also saw clearly that the Japanese were no match for Tang Qiuli and would be destroyed sooner or later. For a country destined to cease to exist in the future, Hitler  It would be unwise to offend a tyrannical military group that would become the biggest factor in Germany's occupation of the North American continent. Hitler's calculation was very clear.

    However, these factors did not prevent Hitler from using some tricks. On the one hand, he issued an order to the Director of Military Industry of the German Wehrmacht not to accept orders from the Japanese, but he used the words tactfully. On the other hand, he also hinted that he could cleverly  But we need to remind the Japanese in a subtle way that Germany is not??Japan¡¯s only target for purchasing arms is that there are other options, such as the Italians!
