Age of Rebirth

In July, Tokyo, the capital of Japan, is extremely hot. Even at night, the heat is unbearable. However, from the Japanese point of view, the palace of Emperor Hirohito, who has the body of a demigod, is cool and cool. Of course, he is not a demigod. His Majesty the Emperor, who has a body, has any great supernatural powers, can not invade the cold and heat, and change the world, but as the Emperor, you should enjoy the treatment, even if you put all the people in Japan under the big sun, you can't heat up His Majesty the Emperor, It's a matter of attitude!

However, in the cool and cool hall, Emperor Hirohito, who is sitting on the dragon chair at the moment, has straight eyes, trembling lips, pale face, sweat on his forehead, and cold sweat. At the head, General Mineiguang, the Minister of War and Acting Chief of the General Staff of the base camp, was dripping with sweat, standing with his head bowed and bowed. The hall was as quiet as a tomb.

A telegram was almost soaked with sweat in the palms of Emperor Hirohito. After the Kwantung Army Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Kenjiro Matsuda's telegram was in the hands of Minai Ko, he did not dare to delay at all. Two speeding cars rushed to the palace to meet Emperor Hirohito, because this matter is too big, to the extent that it will affect the future and destiny of the Japanese Empire, even if he is No. 1 in the imperial world and holds the two major systems of military administration and military orders in one hand, he can't afford it!

Emperor Hirohito, who had just gone to bed, listened to the report from the attendants that General Mitsuko Minai was seeking an audience outside the palace. After some physical exercise, they all took off their clothes and belts, and were about to enter the alley with a knife and angry horse, but a spoiler came. "What a disappointment!" Emperor Hirohito muttered, and ordered his attendants to arrive: "Xun Minai Aiqing enters the palace!"

That is, General Mitsuko Minei, who has this face.If it were someone else, even if his younger brother Zairen asked to see him late at night, he would have to wait until he was finished, but Emperor Hirohito knew that Koichi Yonei was not only the minister he relied on most, but also the most generous and able to understand my intentions minister.If there is no urgent military affairs, and he cannot make a decision, he will not enter the palace at night!

Since he came late at night.Then this matter is much more important than hand-to-hand combat with the concubine. Patting the concubine's snowy buttocks, Emperor Hirohito swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said with green eyes: "My concubine is waiting for me. I will come as soon as I go. Tonight There is absolutely no reason for you to stay in an empty room alone!"

Because they are the most confidant ministers, they know each other too well, there is no need to pretend to be a ghost, and show the majesty of a demigod. Emperor Hirohito didn't wear any dragon robes, just came out in pajamas, and went to the front hall Go, still pondering. "What is the important thing, Minai attacked me overnight? Is there something wrong with Gensaburo Ito in the Australian battlefield? Is there something wrong with Yamamoto 56 in the Eastern Pacific battlefield?"

"It's Tanaka Shinichi on the Korean Peninsula battlefield. The situation has deteriorated? Or the Manchurian Kwantung Army Umezu Yoshijiro, what happened? Or Zain on the Far East battlefield. Is there any important news?"

The military forces of the Great Japanese Empire are all on these five battlefields, and every move is related to the life and death of the empire. However, Emperor Hirohito walked all the way and guessed all the way, but he did not draw any conclusions. I saw Mi Neiguang scurrying back and forth like ants on a hot pan.

Emperor Hirohito suddenly "thumped" in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "Minai Aiqing, Kui Ye came to the palace to see me, do you have any urgent military affairs?"

When Minai saw His Majesty coming, he didn't care about etiquette, and tried to use a calm tone to truthfully state the contents of the emergency telegram sent by the Kwantung Army Chief of Staff Kenjiro Matsuda. A minister staring wide-eyed, no one knows what to say!

Emperor Hirohito hadn't recovered from the shock yet. The Kwantung Army Chief of Staff Kenjiro Matsuda's telegram described the situation in Manchuria. At this level, nearly 20 people in the border guards were all broken, more than 50 people were encircled in the northwest of Manchuria and Liaobei, and more than 40 people were encircled in Ximan, and Harbin was being attacked by the north and the south again!

The entire battle situation in Manchuria has become so corrupted that it cannot be controlled. That damned China devil, Tang Qiuli, is taking everything in Manchuria from the hands of the Great Japanese Empire. Emperor Hirohito does not believe this is true, because before that, there has never been I have received reports that the situation in Manchuria is in danger.

Emperor Hirohito held the telegram tightly in his hand, but he didn't dare to open it to read it. He was afraid that the lines of text would pierce his heart. In a trance, Emperor Hirohito's eyes finally focused, and he asked tentatively: "Mi Nei Aiqing, is all this true? Are you going to lose Manchuria?"

General Mineiguang, 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, who is so powerful that he stomps the imperial government and the government and the world. He didn't dare to make such a big joke, so he wiped the sweat off his face and replied with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, all this is true, I am afraid that the situation in Manchuria is even worse than what Matsuda Kenjiro reported! "

Emperor Hirohito, who was sitting on the throne, was agitated all over, and suddenly became furious, and roared in a sharp voice: "Why? Why did the Kwantung Army Chief of Staff Matsuda Kenjiro report the situation in Manchuria instead of the commander-in-chief Umezu Yoshijiro? Why is the situation in Manchuria corrupted? At this point, I reported to me, what did Umezu Yoshijiro do before now?"

This is exactly where Minnei Koichi was puzzled. It stands to reason that Meijin did not need to conceal the real situation of the Manchuria War. He reported the truth to the base camp. At least, he did not have to bear the crime of concealing and delaying the military plane. The countermeasures he took afterwards , 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!

Unable to figure it out, Minai Koichi said with a bitter face: "This is also what I don't understand. Why didn't Umezu Yoshijiro report the situation of the Manchurian War to His Majesty and the headquarters before? There must be a reason. As for this telegram, it was for the Kanto The reason is that the telegram said 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. Get on him!"

"It was under such circumstances that Kenjiro Matsuda, chief of staff of the Kwantung Army, sent a telegram to the base camp to truthfully reflect the situation in Manchuria. Reported to His Majesty the Emperor and the headquarters for tactical guidance from the Supreme Command, but was rejected by Meijin!"

Ever since he received a telegram from Chief of Staff Matsuda revealing the real situation in Manchuria, Yonei Kouichi knew that Umezu's previous memorial was becoming a smoking time bomb, which would blow him up all over his body, even beyond redemption!

Judging from the time of the memorial, it is the main force of the Kwantung Army. Before being encircled by the independent division, if I submit the memorial of Meizu immediately, maybe His Majesty the Emperor and the headquarters will have a clear understanding of the situation in Manchuria. If you know, you can avoid the current situation.

In the final analysis, it was me who delayed the military plane. It was I who was worried about gains and losses and looked forward and backward. The situation in Manchuria was so out of control today, but the main reason for it was that Meijin, that bastard, never reported the real situation of the Manchurian battlefield to the base camp. No matter what purpose Meijin had, this one alone would be enough to kill her!

The one who really delayed the military plane was Meijin, and General Minai had no intention of filling the tank for General Meijin, so in the end, he poured a little oil without a trace, in order to get out of Meijin's murderous memorial. , This cannot be concealed, and at the same time, he picked himself up completely to lay the groundwork.

"What?" Emperor Hirohito's eyes were straight, and he jumped up from the dragon chair like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and exclaimed in surprise. Is there anything more bizarre than this?The commander-in-chief of the nearly 200 million Kwantung Army lost his whereabouts in one battle, disappeared from the world, and no one was alive or dead!

Emperor Hirohito was angry. What the hell is that Umezu Yoshijiro doing?What made him even more angry was what Koichi Minai said later, and he continued to growl angrily: "It's unreasonable, why didn't Umezu Yoshijiro let the chief of the general staff Matsuda report the real situation of the Manchuria war?"

Miuchi Koichi shook his head with bitterness on his face and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being stupid. I don't know the reason for this! Maybe Commander Meijin has other difficulties?" Negligence, can only punish Umezu Yoshijiro to death, knowing how to make His Majesty the Emperor even more angry.

Sure enough, as soon as Minai Koichi finished speaking, Emperor Hirohito jumped down from the dragon chair in a few steps like a furious lunatic, stared at Minu Koichi closely, gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from his throat, "Anything else? What are your concerns?" It cannot be the reason for me to conceal the situation in Manchuria. At the beginning, I tried my best to appoint Umezu Yoshijiro to replace General Nanjiro as the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army. I have high hopes for him!"

"I hope he can teach that nasty China devil Tang Qiuli a lesson for me in Manchuria, but what this bastard has done is that he owes the king's favor, bullies the deployment, and regards the Manchuria of the empire as a place for him to bully his superiors and his inferiors." , Such a bastard who bullies the emperor, is not worthy of being a soldier of the Great Japanese Empire, and is not worthy of being a citizen of the Yamato nation. Aiqing Minai, why are you still defending him? What are your difficulties? Hmm?"

It's time for the fire, Minei Koichi pretended to be sincere and fearful, and took out the memorial of General Meizu from the briefcase, and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down, maybe this is the difficulty of General Meizu!" As he said, he raised the memorial with both hands Pass it over your head!
