Age of Conquest Reborn

In Tokyo, the capital of Japan, the heat is unbearable in July. Even at night, the heat is overwhelming. However, in the eyes of the Japanese, the palace of Emperor Hirohito, who has the body of a demigod, is cool. Of course, he is not a demigod.

body of heaven

Your Majesty, do you have any great supernatural powers that can protect you from the cold and heat, change the world? But as the emperor, you should enjoy the treatment. Even if you put all the people in Japan to bake under the sun, you can't heat up your majesty. This is the attitude.

question!

However, in the cool hall, Emperor Hirohito, who was sitting on the throne at the moment, had straight eyes, his lips were trembling, his face was pale, his forehead was covered with sweat, and it was still cold sweat.

First of all, the Minister of War and Acting Chief of the General Staff of the base camp, General Mitsuichi Yoneuchi, was sweating profusely and standing with his head bowed. The hall was as quiet as a tomb.

A telegram was almost soaked with sweat in the palms of Emperor Hirohito's hands. After the telegram from Lieutenant General Matsuda Kenjiro, Chief of Staff of the Kwantung Army, arrived in the hands of Koichi Mineuchi, he did not dare to delay at all. Two people rushed to the palace in a speed car to meet him.

Emperor Hirohito, because this matter is so big that it will affect the future and destiny of the Japanese Empire, even if he is the first person in the imperial military and has the two major systems of military administration and military orders in his hand, he cannot afford it!

Emperor Hirohito, who had just gone to bed, heard from the attendant that General Minai Koichi was asking for an audience outside the palace. He didn't care about it. That's right. He had just gone to bed and was about to relax on a young and beautiful concubine.

They had all taken off their clothes and belts and were preparing to go into the alley with swords and angry horses, but a disappointing person came. "What a disappointment!" Emperor Hirohito muttered, and ordered the attendants to arrive: "Son Mi Nei Ai

Please come into the palace!"

That is General Yoneuchi. With this reputation, if it were anyone else, even if it were his younger brother Zaihi, he would have to wait until he was satisfied before asking for a meeting late at night. But Emperor Hirohito knew that Yoneuchi was not only the minister he relied on most,

He is still the minister who is most measured and able to understand my wishes. If there were not hundreds of thousands of urgent military matters and he could not make a decision, he would not enter the palace at night!

Since he came late at night, this matter was much more important than fighting with the concubine. After patting the concubine's snowy buttocks, Emperor Hirohito swallowed a gulp of saliva and said with green eyes: "My beloved concubine is waiting for me. I am waiting for you.

Come as you go, there is no reason for you to stay alone in the empty room tonight!"

Because they are the most confidant ministers and know each other well, there is no need to pretend to be mysterious and show off the majesty of a demigod. Emperor Hirohito did not wear any dragon robes. He just wrapped himself in a pair of pajamas and came out while heading to the front hall.

As he left, he was still thinking, "What is the important matter that led to Minai's overnight attack on me? Is there something wrong with Ito Genzaburo in the Australian battlefield? Is there something wrong with Yamamoto Isoroku in the Eastern Pacific battlefield?"

"Or is it Tanaka Shinichi's place on the Korean Peninsula battlefield. The war situation has worsened? Or it's the Manchurian Kwantung Army Umezu Yoshijiro's place, something big has happened? Or it's Zai Ren's place on the Far East battlefield. Is there any important news?"

The military power of the Empire of Japan was deployed on these five battlefields, and every move was related to the life and death of the empire. However, Emperor Hirohito walked and guessed all the way, but he did not come to any conclusion. When he arrived at the front hall where he usually summoned ministers, he saw at a glance

I saw Mi Neiguang scurrying back and forth like ants on a hot pot.

Emperor Hirohito's heart suddenly "thumped" and he asked hurriedly: "My love for Minai, come to the palace to see me at night. Is there any urgent military matter?"

When Hikari Minai saw His Majesty the Emperor arriving, he ignored any etiquette and tried his best to use a calm tone and truthfully stated the contents of the emergency telegram from Kwantung Army Chief of Staff Matsuda Kenjiro. The result is what it is now, Kazu-kun

Yichen, big eyes and small eyes, no one knows what to say!

Emperor Hirohito had not yet recovered from the shock. The telegram from the Chief of Staff of the Kwantung Army, Matsuda Kenjiro, described the war situation in Manchuria. It was too terrible. In the Far East, the Kwantung Army, which had suffered heavy losses from the Soviet army, now fell to the enemy.

In this situation, nearly 200,000 people in the border garrison were all destroyed, more than 500,000 people were surrounded in northwestern Manchuria and Liaoning Province, more than 400,000 people were surrounded in Western Manchuria, and Harbin was being attacked from the north and the south again!

The entire war situation in Manchuria has deteriorated beyond control. That damn China devil Tang Qiuli is taking away everything in Manchuria from the Empire of Japan. Emperor Hirohito does not believe this is true, because it has never happened before.

Received reports that the war situation in Manchuria was critical.

Emperor Hirohito held the telegram tightly in his hand, but did not dare to open it and read it. He was afraid that the lines of text would pierce his heart. In a daze, Emperor Hirohito's eyes finally focused and he asked tentatively:

"My dear Minai, is all this true? I am going to lose Manchuria?"

General Minai Koichi, of course, does not believe that all this is true, but it is indeed true. Not to mention a lieutenant general and chief of staff of the Kwantung Army, he is himself. He is so powerful that the empire's military and political circles will tremble when he stamps his feet.

He was making such a big joke, so he wiped the sweat from his face and replied with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, all this is true. I am afraid that the war situation in Manchuria is even worse than what Kenjiro Matsuda reported!"

Emperor Hirohito, who was sitting on the throne, was agitated, suddenly became furious, and roared with a sharp voice: "Why? Why was it the Chief of Staff of the Kwantung Army Matsuda Kenjiro who reported the situation of the Manchuria War, instead of the Commander-in-Chief Umezu Mijiro? Why was the situation of the Manchuria War so corrupt?

To this extent, you reported to me, what did Umezu Yoshijiro do before that?"

This is what puzzles Koichi Yoneuchi. Logically speaking, that guy Umezu has no need to conceal the true situation of the Manchurian War and reports the truth to the base camp. At least, he does not have to bear the crime of concealing the truth and delaying the military plane. The subsequent countermeasures taken

, you can completely follow the instructions of the base camp. Even if Manchuria falls in the end, it is not a sin of losing your head!

I can't figure it out. Koichi Minai said with a grimace: "This is also what I am puzzled about. Why did Umezu Yoshijiro not report the situation of the Manchurian War to His Majesty and the base camp before? There must be a reason. As for this telegram, it is for Kanto

military

The reason for this is that the telegram stated that the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army Umezu Yoshijiro, after commanding the troops to fight in western Liaoning, is now missing. No one is alive or dead, and all radio stations cannot be contacted.

he!"

"It was under such circumstances that the Chief of General Staff of the Kwantung Army, Matsuda Kenjiro, sent a telegram to the base camp that truthfully reflected the situation in Manchuria. According to Matsuda, he had previously suggested to Umezu Yoshijiro that he should truthfully reflect the situation in Manchuria.

Reported to His Majesty the Emperor and the base camp for tactical guidance from the Supreme Command, but was rejected by Umezu!"

Ever since he received the telegram from Chief of Staff Matsuda, revealing the true situation in Manchuria, Koichi Yoneuchi knew that Umezu's previous memorial was becoming a smoking time bomb that would blow him up all over, and even make him irrecoverable!

Judging from the time of the memorial, it was the main force of the Kwantung Army, before it was surrounded by the independent division troops. If I had submitted Umezu's memorial immediately, maybe His Majesty the Emperor and the base camp would have a clear understanding of the situation in the Manchurian War.

Understanding can avoid the current situation.

In the final analysis, it was you who delayed the military plane. It was you who worried about gains and losses and looked forward and backward that made the situation in Manchuria reach the point where it is out of control today. But the main reason was that bastard Umezu who never reported the true situation of the Manchuria battlefield to the base camp.

No matter what purpose Meijin had, this alone would make him more than worthy of death!

The one who really delayed the military plane was that guy Umezu. General Yonei had no intention of filling the tank for General Umezu, so at the end, he poured a little oil without leaving any trace, in order to get out Umezu's deadly memorial.

, this cannot be concealed, and at the same time, it is a foreshadowing of everything that is done to oneself.

"What?" Emperor Hirohito's eyes widened. Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, he jumped up from the throne and exclaimed, is there anything more bizarre than this? The commander of nearly two million Kanto.

The commander-in-chief of the army, his whereabouts are unknown after a battle, and he disappeared from the world, with no one alive or dead but no corpses!

Emperor Hirohito was angry. What on earth was that Umezu Yoshijiro doing? What made him even more angry was what Koichi Yonouchi said later. He continued to roar angrily: "This is unreasonable. Why didn't Umezu Yoshijiro ask Chief of General Staff Matsuda to report the true situation of the Manchuria war?

Condition?"

With a face full of bitterness, Minai Koichi shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being stupid. I don't know the reason for this! Maybe Commander-in-Chief Umezu has other reasons?" The old and cunning Koichi Minai, in order to pick out his own

For his mistakes, he could only punish Umezu Yoshijiro to death. He knew how to make His Majesty the Emperor even more angry.

Sure enough, as soon as Minai Koichi finished speaking, Emperor Hirohito ran off the throne like an angry madman, looked at Minai Koichi, and gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from his throat, "Any other reasons? What?

None of the difficulties can be used as a reason to conceal the situation in Manchuria from me. At the beginning, I defied all opinions and appointed Umezu Yoshijiro to succeed General Nanjiro as the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army. I had high hopes for him!"

"I hope he can teach me a lesson in Manchuria, that abominable China devil Tang Qiuli, but what this bastard did was to betray the kindness of the emperor and bully the deployment, and regard Manchuria as a place for him to bully his superiors and subordinates.

, such a bastard who oppresses the emperor, is not worthy of being a soldier of the Japanese Empire, and is not worthy of being a citizen of the Yamato nation. My love for you, why are you trying to defend him? Huh?"

It was time for the fire to start. Yonai Koichi pretended to be sincere and frightened. He took out General Umezu's memorial from his briefcase and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. Maybe this is where General Umezu's troubles lie!" As he said that, he raised the memorial with both hands.

Pass it over your head!
