Age of Conquest Reborn

As for the Japanese navy, they felt aggrieved and angry. A battle of annihilation that they were originally full of confidence had ended in such a humiliating and disadvantageous manner. It was not because the army deliberately caused a stumbling block. Therefore, with the smell of gunpowder, the navy rushed to the Emperor's Palace.

The big bosses in the department don’t want an explanation, but justice!

His Majesty the Emperor, who had just embraced a charming and lively concubine, was about to show off his majesty as an emperor and sow dragon seeds in his beloved concubine. After receiving the report from the attendant, he looked surprised.

Helplessly, he withdrew the dragon claws that were rubbing Concubine Yufeng, swallowed the foam, suppressed the raging desire in his lower abdomen, and, surrounded by the attendants, arrived at the front hall with a gloomy face that almost dripped water.

It’s no wonder that His Majesty the Emperor was displeased. Those big bosses from the Navy arrived at the wrong time. They happened to catch up with His Majesty the Emperor who was about to have a hand-to-hand fight with his beloved concubine. The man met him at the stall.

Being interrupted like this

It’s okay to be so angry that I have thoughts of murder. Besides, I have three hundred and sixty-five days a year, how many times can I have such an impulse? The state affairs are heavy, and I waste my time and energy for the sake of the hundreds of millions of subjects of the Japanese Empire.

, can’t you let me have a moment of fun?

Emperor Hirohito walked towards the meeting hall with a sullen face, thinking angrily, if these guys who disturb my fun late at night come to bother me with trivial matters, how will I deal with you? Emperor Hirohito secretly thought

Grit your teeth and be ruthless!

When they arrived at the place, several senior officials from the Navy talked about the situation and then submitted the battle situation report carefully prepared by Lieutenant General Shirakawa Yoshitetsu and Lieutenant General Okamura Masao to the imperial review. After Hirohito

The emperor's unseemly mood immediately disappeared, and he realized the seriousness of the problem.

This is no longer a matter of the army and navy using tactics, stumbling behind each other, and slandering and attacking each other. Rather, this approach involves serious issues that weaken the foundation of the Japanese Empire. The army and navy are my right-hand men.

, now, it happened that his left arm used a knife to chop off his right arm. Isn't this Bajie chewing the pig's trotters and mutilating his own flesh and blood?

The storm did not stop and it was consuming the military power of the Empire of Japan. There was no mention of the Empire of Japan's great cause of dominating Asia and the Pacific. Emperor Hirohito was furious and was about to order severe punishment for the culprit Ito Genzaburo. Suddenly he calmed down and felt

He muttered, "It stands to reason that Ito Genzaburo doesn't have such courage, and the army doesn't dare to do anything that harms the fundamental interests of the Japanese Empire. There must be a reason for this!"

Looking at the few generals who were filled with righteous indignation, they were all from the navy. This was a bit one-sided. Emperor Hirohito thought for a while, "We can't call people from the army into the palace and explain it face to face. Otherwise, we will not be able to explain it in person."

The two groups of people fighting with each other have already made my head hurt, and this matter is already entangled!"

After making up his mind, Emperor Hirohito said slowly: "My beloved ministers, please be patient for the time being. The aide-de-camp will immediately summon Chief of Staff Hitoshi to the palace for important military affairs discussions!"

Prince Zai Ren, who had already fallen asleep, didn't know why his brother, the emperor, summoned him to the palace in the middle of the night. He seemed to be quite anxious and hurried to the palace by car. In the car, Prince Zai Ren, the chief of general staff,

, I have gone through all the major events in my mind. The Southwest Pacific battlefield was fought extremely smoothly. Ito Yanzaburo has invaded Australia and fully occupied Australia. It is just around the corner. There is nothing urgent to do.

?

Prince Zai Ren frowned and racked his brains to guess the purpose of the Emperor summoning him. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, "Could it be that the Second Fleet and the Fourth Fleet of the Navy failed to complete the annihilation in the Coral Sea?"

Regarding the enemy mission, I have already seen this battle report, could it be that there is a stir?"

In fact, what Prince Zai Ren saw was a report about the navy's failure to complete the mission of annihilating the enemy. At that time, he secretly despised the navy and just snatched the mission from the army. What was the result? It's really ridiculous.

, and the processed reports of Lieutenant General Shirakawa Yoshitetsu and Lieutenant General Okamura Masao were sent directly to the Navy Ministry, so Prince Zain, even as the Chief of General Staff, has not yet seen it.

When he arrived at the palace, when he saw a few navy bosses with unkind expressions, Prince Zai Ren suddenly understood everything in his heart. He dared to love the emperor and pulled him over in the middle of the night. It was because he was here to help. After watching Shirakawa Yi

After Lieutenant General Zhe and Lieutenant General Masao Okamura's report, they already knew it in their hearts.

I'm afraid there's something hidden in this. Even if Ito Genzaburo had the courage, he wouldn't dare to do that. As for saying that the top brass of the Army had given instructions, that's nonsense. As the Chief of General Staff, the big boss of the Army shouldn't dare to go beyond that.

If you give such a weak-minded and bastard order, wouldn't you be seeking death? Besides, Army Minister Koichi Mineuchi would not be so stupid.

Prince Zai Ren did not speak after reading the report. Firstly, the Emperor was here, and secondly, the Navy also knew that his ass was biased toward the Army. This rash opening was tantamount to Zhang Muhe from the Army.

Exculpation, no matter how reasonable it is, the navy bosses who have been carried away by anger will inevitably think wrongly and come up like swarms, accusing themselves of favoritism, which is also troublesome!

Seeing his Prince Zai Ren bowing his head and not saying anything, Emperor Hirohito still didn't know the little thoughts of his ghostly younger brother, so he cursed in his heart, "What a slippery guy!"

Helpless, Emperor Hirohito had no choice but to ask: "Zairen, you are the Chief of General Staff. What do you think of this matter? I want to hear your opinion!"

Facing the cannibalistic looks of the big bosses of the Navy, Prince Zai Ren said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, I believe that this matter involves major matters and is already a major incident that endangers the national interests of the Japanese Empire.

Before the truth is found out, we should not deal with it easily. Should we order the commander-in-chief of the theater, General Ito Genzaburo, to explain this? If it is really his deliberate act, it will not be too late to punish him severely and give justice to the navy. Otherwise, it will

It chilled the hearts of the army officers."

Several navy bosses were so angry that their eyes were black. This emperor's younger brother, the current chief of general staff of the base camp, was basically wearing the same pants as those guys in the army, and it was a common thing for them to get into trouble. Count on him.

To be able to speak for the navy, you have to have a sow that can climb a tree, but what they say makes sense. In litigation, you need to face confrontation, and you can't just listen to your own words. There is no other way but to accept Prince Zai Ren's suggestion.

In fact, Emperor Hirohito also had the same idea, but it was just that he said it himself, as if he was arguing for the army, which was not conducive to his control. If the navy had a grudge, it would be unsightly. Now, Zai

Prince Hitoshi's suggestion is exactly what I want. "Zairohito, you should be responsible for this matter. You must come up with a fair statement that everyone agrees with and convinces!" Emperor Hirohito said sternly.

Then, he turned his attention to several navy bosses who were full of carelessness and asked kindly: "My dear friends, what do you think of my treatment?"

Several navy bosses were speechless for a while. My Majesty the Emperor, isn't this nonsense? You have already made arrangements with your golden words. Why are you still asking for our opinions? If you object in person, you are asking for trouble. You don't want to mess around in the Japanese Empire.

"I am willing to listen to His Majesty the Emperor's decree, and I have no objection!" Several people suppressed their nausea and replied respectfully. However, judging from their faces, they all felt as if their IQ had been insulted by His Majesty the Emperor!

What General Ito slapped on the table angrily was the telegram sent by the General Staff asking him to explain the facts of the Battle of Coral Sea. Prince Zain was quite kind. After the telegram ordering General Ito to explain the situation was sent, he

I also sent the complaint telegram to Shirakawa and Okamura at the same time without changing it word for word, for fear that he would not know where to start and suffer the consequences of being dumb.

His temper was lost, he had finished cursing, and what needed to be done still had to be done. Not only did the Chief of General Staff, Prince Zain, wait for a reply, but even His Majesty the Emperor was anxious to see the results, and the navy gang was also caught up in the matter.

Those who refused to let go, General Ito had a big head. He looked at the silent chief of staff and said: "Kawashima-kun, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

When Major General Ito lost his temper and scolded his mother, Major General Kawashima was already thinking about how to reply to the telegram. When he saw his superiors and asked himself, he replied succinctly: "General, my opinion is to return the message truthfully!"

Admiral Ito was dissatisfied and frowned and said: "Kawashima-kun, since the Navy is so despicable and distorts the facts, why don't we explain the facts and transfer the Navy's Second Fleet Commander Shirakawa Yoshitetsu and the Fourth Fleet Commander

Guan Gangmura Masao and two others,

The things that caused the failure of the mission due to the carelessness of the enemy and the mistakes in command should be reported at the same time. It is best to take the opportunity to drive these two guys out of the Japanese Emperor [***] team. Thinking of these two shameless guys, I

I feel angry in my heart! I am ashamed to be with such people!"

Chief of Staff Kawashima smiled and said: "General, now is not the time for disputes of temper. We only need to report the situation truthfully. His Majesty the Emperor and the base camp will definitely come to a correct conclusion. If we take the opportunity to retaliate, we will end up being stingy.

What’s more, you are the commander-in-chief of the theater after all. In name, the Second and Fourth Fleets of the Navy are still under your command. They made such a low-level mistake, and you can’t get rid of it! Maybe,

Bear joint and several liability!”

General Ito said unwillingly: "Are we going to let Shirakawa Yoshitetsu and Okamura Masao, these two shameless and despicable guys, remain in the empire's army and continue to deceive others and endanger the interests of the empire?"

Major General Kawashima smiled indifferently and said patiently: "General, after we reported the battle truthfully, since we were not wrong, the only ones who were wrong were Lieutenant General Shirakawa Yoshitetsu and Lieutenant General Okamura Masao.

Someone is responsible for this defeat, of course, not us, but the Navy, and they should give His Majesty the Emperor and the base camp a reasonable explanation!"

General Ito sighed and said: "Kawashima-kun, I can always be persuaded by you, so I will do what you want!"
