Age of Conquest Reborn

Lieutenant General Nobutake Takahashi, the director of the Field Force Supervision Bureau of the Japanese Army Base Camp, is the leader of the young generals of the Japanese Army. He has long been dissatisfied with the suppression of a large number of senior ministers led by General Koichi Yoneuchi. Now, at the imperial military meeting

, Lieutenant General Minamino Osamuyama, Director of the Strategic Research Bureau, put forward a proposal for opening up a battlefield in the United States, which provided him with an opportunity.

His Majesty the Emperor clearly agreed. This is an opportunity. Takahashi Nobutake's plan is very clever. It is not that he is completely competing for power with the elders and ministers. He has his own plan. If he directs this war that shocked the country and even the world.

, then it would be difficult for a war commander not to become famous.

Moreover, he analyzed it calmly and found that this guy Nanye was indeed talented. He had analyzed all the factors in the document. Therefore, opening a battlefield in the United States had a very high possibility of victory. Even if it failed, at most

Just losing some combat aircraft does not shake the foundation of the army. How big can the crime be?

Furthermore, from the bottom of my heart, it is also my wish that the Empire of Japan can win the Australian War and turn the Pacific Ocean into the empire's inland sea. All these factors, intertwined together, and the business of making sure profits without losing money, prompted Nobutake Takahashi.

Lieutenant General, please take the initiative to seize the opportunity!

Lieutenant General Nobutake Takahashi, the leader of the young generals in the base camp, clearly expressed his support for Minano's plan to build a mountain. However, this angered a large number of civil and military ministers including Miuchi Miuchi, who all stared at him with murderous eyes.

From the perspective of Guangyi and others, these guys who don't know how high the sky is are just adding fuel to the fire!

Takahashi Nobutake took the initiative to volunteer. Emperor Hirohito was of course happy. The generals fought bravely. Is it the luck of the empire? However, he already had a suitable candidate in his heart, so he said with a smile: "Takahashi Ai, you took the initiative to volunteer, I am so happy."

I'm very relieved. However, the Field Force Supervision Bureau is also an extremely important department, and it needs someone like Takahashi Aiki to be in charge, otherwise, I won't worry!"

"As for the candidate for the commander of this military operation, I have decided that the five Yamamotos who are commanding the Navy's combined fleet and fighting against the U.S. Pacific Fleet will be the commander. This is also strongly recommended by Minamino Aiki!"

"Major matters involving the fate of the empire should be handed over to the Navy?" After Emperor Hirohito finished speaking, Koichi Yonai's face was very ugly, and his heart was full of loss and anger, including hatred for Minamino Shuzan and anger towards Takahashi Nobutake.

.

The Minister of the Navy, Admiral Nagano Shuzan, was stunned at first, and then he was happy. Although he did not agree with the plan of that lunatic Minamino, His Majesty the Emperor's attitude was obviously unchangeable. Now, this important position fell into the hands of the Navy.

, I couldn’t object anymore.

So, Admiral Nagano stood up and said: "Your Majesty, gentlemen, I agree with Minano-kun's statement. The Navy will fully support General Yamamoto Goto to complete this important task of opening a battlefield in the United States!"

"Asshole! Damn, you are really nothing! Just now we were on the same front as me. As soon as I heard that the navy was responsible for this crazy plan, I immediately changed my stance!" Miuchi Miuchi was very angry at Nagano Shuzan's betrayal.

I feel like I've been tricked and isolated.

Emperor Hirohito was certainly happy to have the support of his military ministers. He did not want several civil and military ministers to alienate him because of this plan. He said with satisfaction: "I have issued an edict to recall Yamamoto Aiki. He

We are now on our way back to our homeland. Today's imperial meeting is just to inform you of Minamino Aikyō's plans. After Yamamoto Aikyō comes back, we will hold another imperial meeting to study specific combat arrangements!"

Then, Emperor Hirohito looked at the civil and military ministers with different expressions, and once again made a shocking decision, "I will issue an edict immediately. From now on, Minamino Aikyō will serve as the deputy chief of staff of the headquarters general staff.

One position, promotion to the army

With the title of General of the Imperial Army, the Strategic Research Bureau has been upgraded to the Strategic Coordination Headquarters, which is a unit parallel to the General Staff Headquarters and is responsible to me. The head of this department is Minamino Aiki, who is dedicated to the strategic planning and research of the Empire's foreign operations!"

It's unreasonable to reach the sky in one step. This guy Minamino is really lucky. The deputy chief of staff is nothing to be jealous of. With Koichi Yoneuchi, the military's top boss, on top, he can't make any trouble, but strategically

The Coordinating Headquarters is extraordinary. It is on an equal footing with the General Staff and is directly responsible to His Majesty the Emperor. Aren't there many important military affairs that can be bypassed by the General Staff?

The thoughtful ministers are wondering whether His Majesty the Emperor's meaning and intention behind this matter is the beginning of weakening Koichi Minai's power, or is it a means to check and balance him? Looking at Koichi Minai's eyes, he felt...

It has a special meaning.

The most disappointing and disturbing thing is undoubtedly General Miuchi Yoneuchi. Not only did he fail to stop Minamino Osamu, a lunatic, from passing the proposal at the meeting, but some kind of strategic coordinating headquarters also appeared to forcefully take away the power of the General Staff.

, cut off a piece of him, and after many years of ups and downs in the officialdom, he had never thought that this was a way for His Majesty the Emperor to weaken his power, or the beginning of his indifference to himself!

But no matter how you think about it, it is impossible. Just at the last imperial military meeting, His Majesty the Emperor gave himself the greatest power to directly command the Australian war. It was the largest heavy force group in the empire. Koichi Yoneuchi's mind was very confused, "

The emperor's heart is unpredictable!" He sighed in a low mood.

Admiral Nagano Shuzan, the Minister of the Navy, caught up from behind and shouted: "Munei-kun, please stay!"

As soon as he heard this guy calling him again, the anger in Mi Neguang's heart could not be suppressed. Anyway, the two of them were old rivals who had been fighting for many years. They knew each other too well and did not hide any emotions, so they turned around without saying a word.

He glared angrily at General Nagano, but wanted to see what this bastard said?

Seeing Minai act like a fighting cock, General Nagano knew what was going on. After catching him, he said in a calm tone: "Minai, don't blame me. Think about it. The situation at that time was complete.

I was convinced by that guy Nanye's statement, can you and I change it? You still don't know what your Majesty's temper is?"

"I also advise Minei-kun, don't just object. I just looked at the original statement, and I think that the lunatic Minano's plan is very feasible. It is bold and surprising, mainly using the strategy of 'drawing money from the bottom of the cauldron' to seize the opportunity."

It is a wonderful opportunity to take advantage of the Germans’ opportunity to send troops to South America!”

"Hmph!" General Miuchi Yonei snorted and said nonchalantly: "I didn't expect Nagano-kun to change his position so quickly. Also, will your navy carry out such a crazy plan that can change the fate of the empire?

There’s no reason to object, I’m not feeling well, so I’ll take my leave first!”

After saying that, Yoneuchi didn't even think about looking at General Nagano. He walked away angrily, looking at Yoneuchi's retreating back, "Huh, you are a scheming guy. It's not because he didn't get the task of executing this plan."

!" General Nagano curled his lips in contempt and muttered.

Two days later, after receiving the order from His Majesty the Emperor, the Commander of the Japanese Navy's Combined Fleet, General Yamamoto, rushed back to Tokyo. However, Emperor Hirohito did not rush to convene an imperial military meeting, but asked his attendants to

Pass the message, "Yamamoto Aikyō can go to the Strategic Coordination Headquarters of the base camp and meet with the head of the headquarters, General Minamino, to exchange mutual views, and then I will summon you!"

Yamamoto's five generals had no impression of Minamino Shuzan. The army and the navy were not under each other's control, and they had never interacted with each other. In addition, the previous Strategic Research Bureau was an institution that sat on the sidelines. If it wasn't

His Majesty the Emperor's edict

The order mentioned that he had almost forgotten that there was such an organization in the base camp. Therefore, General Yamamoto was very disapproving of meeting with General Minamino. What was the use of meeting with a guy who only knew how to talk on paper?

Communicative?

Has this Minamino Shuzan ever led troops or fought in a war? With reluctance, Yamamoto's five generals came to the strategic coordination headquarters of the base camp. Unexpectedly, when the two sides met and talked for only more than ten minutes, they actually had a mutual understanding.

Jianhenwan means probably finding a soulmate, that’s the feeling.

Minamino Osamu was good at strategic planning, but not proficient in battle tactics. If he was allowed to command a division of Japanese troops on the battlefield, the entire army would be annihilated. However, Yamamoto Isoroku was one of the few senior Japanese military officers.

A commander who is proficient in battles and tactics. In history, the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, the base of the U.S. Navy's Pacific Fleet, can be said to be the pinnacle of Admiral Yamamoto's work.

The two people happen to be complementary types, but they are both fanatical militants and militarists through and through. They work tirelessly to dominate the Japanese Empire and regard it as their lifelong career. This is what the two people have in common, Yamamoto Go**

The general had long planned to start a war in the United States, but he suffered from the lack of support from the base camp, and General Minamino's statement provided him with just such an opportunity!

The meeting went very pleasantly. The two people belonging to different factions of the army and navy transcended their factional opinions and became confidants. General Minamino's strategic vision requires tacticians like General Yamamoto to realize it, and General Yamamoto listened.

General Minamino's words opened up his horizons and thinking, and he suddenly felt enlightened. On many issues, the two people hit it off and they were surprisingly consistent!

This is fate. After a few hours, the two of them were like old friends who had known each other for many years. They had an amazing tacit understanding with each other. They just kowtowed and laughed. From time to time, they could be heard from inside the house, making the guards at the door alert.

I was stunned for a while.

Seeing that it was getting late, General Minamino took General Yamamoto's hand and said sincerely: "Yamamoto-kun, I will hold a family dinner tonight to welcome you and wash away the dust!"

Yamamoto Isoroku was not pretentious and said cheerfully: "Nano-kun invites you, how dare Yamamoto disobey!"

As a result, two senior generals who decided Japan's future military strength drove away side by side.
