Age of Conquest Reborn
Chapter 2886 General Yamamoto who is in the limelight
"Order that the Army Air Force and Navy Land-Based Air Force originally stationed on various islands in the Eastern Pacific prepare in advance. When the field airports in the imperial-occupied areas on the west coast are repaired, all units will be transferred immediately..."
"Ordered the Empire's North American Combat Command to move to Los Angeles. Chief of Staff General Minamino led the remaining personnel of the command to come to Los Angeles immediately and ordered the Combined Fleet Carrier-based Air Force to carry out continuous operations against the retreating US troops from immediately on.
Intermittent air strikes!”
The focus of General Yamamoto's three orders was to push the Army and Navy Air Force's field airfields forward to the newly occupied area. During the several-month air battle against the U.S. Army Air Force, he realized the beauty of mastering the air.
It is no exaggeration to say that the empire's victory in the landing battle on the west coast of the United States completely relied on the control of air superiority.
At this time, General Yamamoto's war perspective had undergone profound changes, and he had new ideas about fighting in the United States. Therefore, he hated Hirano Yoshiki for overstepping his authority on his own initiative.
At the same time, General Yamamoto also realized that the thinking and thinking of the army commanders under his command had become rigid, and they clung to the theory of the Continental Army and the Army's victory. The pursuit plan proposed by Hirano Yoshiki without permission was this
The specific expression of his thoughts, how can he rest assured about such a general?
His eagerness to have his best friend, General Minamino, come to Los Angeles contained another thought and expectation.
Use Minano-kun's strategic vision and understanding of himself to try to change the rigid and fixed thinking of the army generals under the North American Combat Command. Otherwise, he would not mind a major overhaul of the army under his command.
A large number of senior generals. Let those old-fashioned and rigid-thinking guys get out of their current command positions!
General Yamamoto knew that it was very dangerous for him to do this. He was going against the entire army system of the empire. He was facing suppression and counterattack by the big bosses of the army, even though he had the absolute trust of the Emperor in him and the command and control of him.
I am afraid it is not easy to achieve the huge aura of victory in the United States war. If it fails, it will end in ruins and disgrace.
Thinking of this, Akatsuki, a tough-hearted General Yamamoto, couldn't help but feel discouraged and trembled, but he had to go on, all for the sake of the empire winning the war against the United States at the minimum cost!
The first batch of Japanese landing troops occupied the west coast of the United States. The arrival of the second batch of landing troops heralded a complete victory in the first stage of the landing war on the United States. General Yamamoto finally had sufficient confidence to win the victory with the victory.
Identity, report victory to Emperor Hirohito!
When Admiral Yamamoto's telegram arrived in Tokyo, Emperor Hirohito, with tears of excitement in his eyes, issued the edict in person, "I declare to all the people. Today, the imperial fleet commanded by Admiral of the Imperial Navy, General Isoroku Yamamoto, successfully
Occupied the west coast of the United States and achieved complete victory in the first phase of the war against the United States!"
As soon as Emperor Hirohito's edict was issued, the whole country, both inside and outside the Japanese court, from the royal family members to ordinary people, was boiling with excitement. The whole of Japan was in a frenzied excitement. When they went to the Emperor's Palace, they could not kneel down for a long time.
There are those who shout "Long live His Majesty the Emperor", there are those who cut their wrists, chop off their fingers, and make themselves bloody, there are those who swear to join the Imperial Army...
Anyway, the victory in the first stage of the war against the United States was like taking a stimulant to the Japanese. The whole country was in a kind of crazy excitement like a rut. A similar situation happened when Japan launched its war against China.
This also happened during the July 7th Incident of the war.
The names of Emperor Hirohito and General Yamamoto are widely circulated in the mouths of Japanese people. His Majesty the Emperor is naturally deified to the extent that he cannot eat the fireworks of the world. The five generals of Yamamoto are known as the most famous after Japan's war with Russia.
for
Marshal Togo Heihachiro, the god of war, is Japan's third god of war after Field Marshal Nogi Nogi Nogi. This is the highest honor. Even General Genzaburo Ito, who won the Australian War for the Japanese Empire, has not received it.
Emperor Hirohito was extremely satisfied with the five Yamamoto generals, and issued a special edict, "Specially granted to the Imperial Navy Admiral, Commander of the North American Combat Command Yamamoto Isoroku, to have arbitrary power during the war against the United States. All combat plans can be determined by himself."
, just report it to the base camp!”
"The headquarters only has the right to review the operational plans of the Imperial North American Combat Command, but not to deny it. Admiral Yamamoto has the power to appoint and remove generals at all levels of the army and navy under his jurisdiction at any time!"
In a word, Emperor Hirohito has completely delegated power to General Yamamoto. In the war against the Americans, Yamamoto can fight however he wants. He has the final say on how the generals are appointed and dismissed. I and the headquarters will not interfere at all. Likewise, it is such a huge undertaking.
General Ito Genzaburo has never obtained the power.
The big bosses of the navy were extremely satisfied with Admiral Yamamoto. The landing battle on the west coast of the United States was not only a victory for the empire, but also a victory for the navy. Moreover, it was a victory achieved by a naval admiral after commanding the army troops, which provided a great opportunity for the navy.
Overpowering the army provided strong evidence. For a time, General Yamamoto's limelight overshadowed all the army and navy generals, and his glory was unlimited!
The big bosses of the Army were extremely depressed. Seeing the people of the Navy showing off, they felt indignant in their hearts. To a large extent, the victory of the landing battle on the west coast of the United States was the result of the Army. The Army suffered more than ten casualties.
The victory was achieved at the cost of tens of thousands of people, but the laurel crown was placed on the head of Yamamoto. No matter how you look at it, the army felt aggrieved as a wedding dress for the navy during this landing battle.
At this moment, the complaint letter from Lieutenant General Hirano Yoshiki, the commander of the Fourteenth Army of the Japanese Army, arrived at the base camp. The big bosses of the Army were like a treasure. When the whole country of Japan was celebrating the victory, a conspiracy was launched against Yamamoto.
The conspiracy of the five generals also quietly unfolded.
In Berlin, Germany, in the conference room of the Reichstag, a very high-level military meeting is taking place. All the big bosses of the German party, government and military are in attendance. Among the dignitaries attending the meeting, there are many familiar faces. The commander of the German South American Army Group
Marshal Rommel was prominently among them.
Marshal Rommel traveled thousands of miles and flew back to China. So, the content of the meeting revolved around the next step of action for the more than one million elite German troops who had deployed in Mexico after the Japanese won the landing battle.
question.
Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, who was hailed as the new "God of War" by the Japanese, naturally became one of the topics discussed by Hitler and his officials.
Hitler talked about General Yamamoto with many words of appreciation, "Everyone, the five Yamamotos of the Japanese Navy stood out in this battle and brought a huge victory to the Japanese. To be fair, at the beginning, I was not optimistic about the Japanese.
But now, we must pay attention to this ally!"
"Seideman, your General Intelligence Bureau should list Yamamoto Isoroku as a key target of attention. This Japanese commanding art is still worth learning from our generals. Unexpectedly!"
"Dönitz, if you command the German army, can you achieve the same results as the Japanese?" Hitler looked at the German naval commander, Admiral Dönitz, and suddenly asked.
"Frankly speaking, my head of state, I can't!" General Dönitz said calmly.
Faced with General Dönitz's frankness, the leaders of the German party, government and military present at the meeting all showed surprised expressions. Several of the military generals had a trace of disdain in their eyes. Only Hitler was full of eyes.
They are all expressions of appreciation.
Hitler knew that Dönitz was a rigorous man, and his answer was not an admission of incompetence. The victory achieved by the Japanese was due to many factors, and before the landing battle began, the several-month air battle consumed a lot of energy.
The air power of the Americans is the most critical factor.
"So, Dönitz, from your perspective, what suggestions do you have for the Imperial Army's upcoming attack?" Hitler continued to ask.
"Yes, my head of state!" Admiral Dönitz stood up, walked to the large military map, and said: "The Navy believes that it can concentrate all naval forces to launch an attack on the east coast of the United States. However, the prerequisites
Yes, the navy needs enough landing troops!"
Hitler smiled and gestured to General Dönitz, and continued.
Admiral Dönitz continued: "The east coast of the United States, with its dense concentration of industry, commerce, and politics, supports most of the Americans' needs to maintain the war, especially Washington, which is the center of the United States. Attacking this region
, can shake the foundation of the United States and greatly reduce the difficulty of the German army fighting in the United States!"
"But unfortunately, my head of state, the current situation of the German Navy is that it is responsible for one offensive direction alone and does not have that capability. Therefore, it requires strong cooperation and assistance from the army and air force, especially the strength of the Marine Corps.
Need to expand!"
"Okay, I understand your opinion!" Hitler interrupted Admiral Dönitz, "After the meeting, you stay and talk about your plan in detail. Our German navy should be stronger, and its gaze should not be just
Confined to the Atlantic Ocean!”
Hitler's words shocked all the German party, government and military officials who attended the meeting. According to the Führer's wishes, they had plans to get involved in the Pacific region, which involved the issue of Germany's strategic direction shift.
The Pacific Ocean is currently dominated by the Japanese. Does the head of state intend to compete with the Japanese for supremacy in the Pacific Ocean?
But Germany and Japan are now teaming up to deal with the Americans. What's more important is that on the other side of the Pacific, there is a super heavyweight Tiger, the Führer's old friend, the Chinese Tang Qiuli. The situation is a bit complicated!
Hitler ignored the shocked expressions of his subordinates, turned to Rommel and said: "Dear Rommel, you are the protagonist of today's military meeting, let's talk about your opinions!"
