Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 1686: Ito Yan Saburo's wrist

Lieutenant General Yoshihiko Haruta, who was already in an extremely bad mood, exploded when he heard these words from his chief of staff. Why, could it be that he was still pretending to be a grandson in front of the old guy Ito? This matter was originally his fault.

It's wrong, how can I endure it?

Hashimoto's words just ignited the anger in Haruta Yoshihiko's heart. He glared at the bull's eye and roared in a low voice: "Hashimoto-kun, please don't persuade me. As a soldier of the Empire of Japan, I am not afraid of dying on the battlefield, but I am afraid that someone will die on the battlefield."

I took this opportunity to retaliate and stab myself in the back. If Ito doesn’t give me and the 14th Army an explanation, I will report the matter directly to the General Staff of the base camp and even His Majesty the Emperor. I will not hesitate to lose my official position for this!

"

Although Haruta Yoshihiko suppressed his voice, the resentment that popped out of his throat was very loud. The division commanders of other surrounding units vaguely heard it and couldn't help but cast strange eyes on Haruta.

Yoshihiko and Ichiro Hashimoto were wondering why Lieutenant General Haruta's face was as ugly as pig's liver, and he looked like he wanted to eat people. Who was he targeting? Today's war situation review meeting is probably going to be a big show.

Saw it.

Chief of Staff Hashimoto gave a helpless smile and said, "Well, my boss, who has a rude personality and a brave spirit, has lost his temper again. Even if you want to fight with General Ito, you have to find another occasion. This is a military meeting.

If you are charged with any crime, you will have to go around saying, "You are out of luck, I can just follow up and get better?" Hashimoto racked his brains to think of words, and wanted to persuade his boss.

At this time, the tent door curtain opened, and four colonels walked in. One of them stepped forward and shouted: "Everyone stand up, Commander-in-Chief Ito is here!"

Later, General Ito Yanzaburo, accompanied by Chief of Staff Major General Kawashima, Shi Shiran came in. It seemed that General Ito looked good and his face was red. He looked at the generals standing upright with a proud look on his face.

They glanced around and said in a friendly tone: "Gentlemen, please take a seat, there is no need to be polite!"

When General Ito looked at everyone, Lieutenant General Yoshihiko Haruta's eyes met him without flinching. His eyes were full of provocation and trouble-seeking, and he looked like he would risk everything to make a big fuss, which could attract Chief of Staff Hashimoto who was paying attention to the two men.

Frightened, he hurriedly reached out secretly and violently pulled Haruta Yoshihiko's clothes and legs.

Of course, the gaze of Lieutenant General Yoshihiko Haruta cannot escape the eyes of General Ito. He also knows in his heart where the anger of this guy Haruta comes from. To be honest, Ito doesn't think highly of generals like Yoshihiko Haruta. He has no strategy and no brains.

It's simple, it's just a good fight! The only saving grace is that it commands the battle with a brave style.

However, General Ito has countless ways to conquer such a person and make him loyal to him and become a good thug. The reason why he was unhappy when he first came to Luzon Island was still his own fault, because he acted too hastily.

After the generals sat down, General Ito turned his attention to Lieutenant General Haruta Yoshihiko. Lieutenant General Haruta immediately cocked his neck like a fighting cock with an unconvinced look on his face, preparing to confront the old guy Ito head-on. Unexpectedly, Ito

The general's next words and actions shocked all the senior Japanese generals who attended the meeting, including Haruta Yoshihiko himself!

Ito looked at Lieutenant General Haruta Yoshihiko with sincere eyes, bowed slightly, and then said: "Haruta-kun, I'm sorry for causing you and your subordinates to be wronged. Please accept my most sincere apology!"

The Japanese generals were all stunned, as if they were five miles away from the clouds. Commander-in-chief Ito, what kind of tricks are you playing? What wrongs did Yoshihiko Haruta suffer?

Lieutenant General Yoshihiko Haruta himself was even more surprised. He was immediately turned to stone. His mouth was half-opened and his eyes were blankly looking at Commander-in-Chief Ito, who was bowing to him. What was his condition? He asked himself.

General Ito was very satisfied with the effect he had created. Without waiting for the generals to think about it, he continued: "Gentlemen, everyone must be aware of today's situation. Our Imperial Japanese Army took the initiative to launch an attack on the US military. Although

It did not break through the US military's defense line, but it inflicted heavy damage on the US military. This is the result of the efforts of everyone here!"

"What is particularly worth mentioning is that the direction of attack by Haruta-kun's troops is the most important targets, Lucena and Caravag, and the price they paid was the highest. It can be said that without the heroic fighting of Haruta-kun's troops, there would be nothing."

There will be no results today, and it will not be conducive to the implementation of the next plan!"

Wait, what do you mean? The other Japanese generals couldn't understand. The Fourteenth Army suffered the most casualties and failed to gain an inch of territory. With the same results, the Fourteenth Army, which suffered the most casualties, became an example of hard work and merit. Then we

What? Commander-in-Chief Ito, could it be that he had a few too many drinks last night and was still hungover, so what he said was ironic or nonsense?

Ito did not give the generals time to think, and continued: "In today's battle, in the direction of the attack of the Fourteenth Army, with Haruta-kun's commanding skills and the brave fighting spirit of the officers and soldiers of the Fourteenth Army, it could have been possible to break through the third-level U.S. Army."

However, when the 14th Army was violently bombed by U.S. military planes and Mr. Haruta asked me for help, I refused without hesitation.

Yes, do you know why this is?"

Oh, I see. The Japanese generals all understood it now. No wonder Yoshihiko Haruta was so angry just now, just like a cockfight. The root cause is here. At the same time, they were confused again. Yes, this matter is on their own.

, it’s also because the boss is uncomfortable and even resentful. The dispatched troops have more than a thousand planes, so why can’t they be sent out to shoot down or drive away the American planes?

The casualties of more than 6,000 people in the Fourteenth Army turned out to be caused by Commander-in-Chief Ito. Yoshihiko Haruta also realized from the confusion just now, yes, I really want to know the reason. If Commander-in-Chief Ito

, the reasons I gave are not enough to convince the public, I will still break up with you, don’t look at the way you bowed and apologized just now, it’s useless!

General Ito continued: "There is only one reason, that is, I want to wipe out the two aviation groups of the US Southwest Pacific Theater in the Calais Mountains battlefield. The space of the Luzon Island battlefield is small, and the empire has concentrated hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

U.S. military aircraft pose a great threat to us. If we do not attack, this threat will not be obvious yet. Once the imperial army wants to achieve its campaign objectives, the first thing it must solve is the U.S. military's air power!"

"The main bombing area of ​​​​the US military aircraft today is the direction of the attack of Haruta-kun's troops. Under such circumstances, Haruta-kun's troops also achieved the result of inflicting heavy losses on the US Third Army. Shouldn't I praise the 14th Army?

? Their heroic attack forced the Americans to invest a large number of aircraft. In the next few days, the imperial army's offensive would increase in intensity, forcing the Americans to invest all their aircraft into the battlefield in the Calais Mountains.

."

"Then, I will concentrate all the air forces of the dispatched army and use the absolute superior force to annihilate the US air power in the airspace of the Calais Mountains. Gentlemen, only by gaining air supremacy can we successfully implement the base camp at the minimum cost.

Plan, the reason why I refused to send planes to support Haruta-kun’s troops is because the number of planes invested by the US military did not meet the requirements of annihilation in one fell swoop, so as to alert the enemy, do you understand?"

General Ito's words made the Japanese generals wake up from their dreams. The actual situation was indeed the case. The density of the attacking troops was too high. If an American plane dropped a bomb, it would cause huge casualties to the imperial soldiers. It could completely

To deal with the American air power, ground combat, and the brave and skilled Imperial Japanese Army troops, who are you afraid of?

I don't know which general took the lead, and applauded first. Then, there was a burst of thunderous applause, which almost overturned the tent. He looked at General Ito with eyes full of admiration. This strategy was very high, especially Lieutenant General Yoshihiko Haruta.

It's like an enlightenment.

He stood up, bowed deeply towards General Ito, and said with shame: "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, please forgive me for being so stupid. I did not understand your good intentions, but instead felt resentful. Please punish me, Commander-in-Chief."

, From now on, Haruta will obey all your orders. It is Haruta’s honor to serve on the battlefield under the command of the Commander-in-Chief and for the great aspirations of the Empire of Japan and His Majesty the Emperor!"

After saying that, Haruta Yoshihiko shed a few tears. Everyone could see that this hot-tempered guy was truly moved and ashamed. General Ito was also excited and reached out to the two senior Japanese generals.

His hands were held tightly together, just like a Japanese version of a general and a prime minister. Whether it was a false sentiment or Ito was deliberately acting, he achieved what he wanted anyway and subdued Haruta, a hot-tempered person.

Guy.

There was another round of thunderous applause. All the Japanese generals were moved. Their hearts filled with boundless fighting spirit. They saw the close cooperation and friendship between the senior generals of the Empire of Japan. It was so touching.

Things like this can only happen in the army that has inherited the soul of the emperor. As for the self-esteemed generals in the navy, they are good at intrigues and there will never be such a scene of sincere cooperation.

Many Japanese generals, while being moved, did not forget to belittle the navy. This is also the practice of the army. Of course, it is also the same in the navy. Anyway, they dislike each other, look down on each other, not to mention have bad tempers, and talk back to each other when they meet. Then

There are some exaggerations, secret fights, dirty tricks, and stumbling blocks, which are common things. The other party's discomfort is your greatest pleasure!

General Ito calmed down his agitated mood, and his tone became high-pitched, and he said: "Gentlemen, this is just the beginning of our Empire of Japan's Southwest Pacific Expedition Force's victory. There is also better news, which will be sent by Kawashima.

Chief of Staff, please inform everyone!"
