Age of Rebirth

Japan's newly established North American Combat Command takes on the heavy responsibility of opening up battlefields in the United States, but the organization of its subordinate troops is a bit complicated, mainly consisting of the Navy's combined fleet. General Yamamoto is not worried about this part, it is his own direct line The troops, the fleet commanders under him, are all confidantes summoned out, such as commanding arms, with one order, all the soldiers will fight desperately. \

In addition, they are all elite soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Navy, and their combat effectiveness is beyond doubt. Otherwise, the United Fleet would not have killed the US Navy's Pacific Fleet twice in a row, blocking the Americans' east coast.

The other part of the force is the several air teams of the Army Aviation Department, which was previously stationed on the Hawaiian Islands. In addition, the three joint air teams recently transferred from the mainland, although all of them are Army Aviation systems, but But it is not a subordinate unit. Several air teams stationed at the base in the Hawaiian Islands were previously under the command of the Army Aviation Department of the base camp.

The newly transferred three United Air Forces are under the command of Prince Ren's Homeland Defense Command. One system and two units are enough to give General Yamamoto a headache. Although several air teams of the naval land-based aviation stationed in Ke Island and other places belong to the naval system, they had no direct affiliation with Admiral Yamamoto before.

The aviation force alone is the patchwork of the four, and it is inevitable that they will carry the traces of their respective systems. It is difficult to expect them to follow orders just like their own fleet. There are more than 600 combat aircraft.But in his view, no synergy has yet been formed.

That's the air power aspect, and there's something else.General Yamamoto is not very worried about the Army system troops stationed on the Hawaiian Islands and the various islands in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, the No.15 Army and No.16 Army. It's useful, at most it's a bluff.Put on a posture of landing on the east coast of the United States, and support the Imperial Army troops on the Australian battlefield.

So, what do the generals of the army think.General Yamamoto didn't care. The two air teams of the Army Air Force system worked well together, after all, they were a family.But Combined Fleet Aviation and Naval Land-Based Aviation.The run-in with several aviation teams of the Army Aviation Corps made General Yamamoto quite thoughtful.

As an important general of the naval system, Admiral Yamamoto is well aware of the old grudges and estrangements between the Imperial Army and Navy for many years. What's more, the plan he formulated this time to bomb several important cities on the east coast of the United States requires the Army Aviation to take the lead.If this feud is not eliminated before the campaign is launched.It is very likely to affect the smooth progress of the plan, or even cause the plan to fail, which is absolutely unacceptable to him!

General Yamamoto’s worries are not unfounded. During the Pacific War in history, the filth between the Japanese Army and Naval Air Forces was even brought to the fore. , "But the long-standing and deep-rooted feud between the army and the navy has inevitably affected the combat cooperation and intelligence exchange between the two forces.

The real history, during the Battle of the Coral Sea in the Southwest Pacific Ocean during World War II, the ground radar station of the Japanese Army Aviation Corps on the Lau Islands discovered that the US aircraft carrier mixed fleet was about to launch an attack on the Japanese Navy’s Third Fleet. He even concealed it and refused to report to the Navy's Third Fleet, which led to the tragic fate of the Third Fleet's almost complete annihilation.

Because the trend of history has changed, the battle of the Coral Sea between the Japanese and American fleets did not happen, and Admiral Yamamoto would not know about the never-before-seen infighting incident of the Army, Navy and Air Force, but he is an excellent tactician and an experienced The commander, keenly aware of this, has fatal injuries to his command operations. Therefore, he must resolve this fatal injury before launching an air strike on the east coast of the United States.

It is not necessary for several Army Air Corps commanders of the Army Aviation Corps to disobey orders openly. They only need to obey their orders and delay the execution of their orders. Unknown dangers appeared in the plan, which led to the final failure, and the failure of the air strike on the mainland of the United States was a burden that General Yamamoto could not bear!

Several Army Air Forces are under the command of the Army Aviation Department of the base camp and Prince Zairen, the deputy commander of the Homeland Defense Command. It is not because of an order from the base camp that these rebellious commanders who have deep prejudices against the navy The official, bowing his head and ears to himself, obeyed orders without any grievances, like orders from his arms.

This is what General Yamamoto is most afraid of, but he can't quickly replace a large number of army air force commanders as soon as he starts to integrate the troops. He is worried about messing up the morale of the army. General Yamamoto is well aware of resistance and intervention. Those bigwigs in the base camp are very used to talking to the front-line combat troops and pointing fingers at thousands or even tens of thousands of kilometers away!

At that time, when the battle started, my order was issued, but there was a secret order from a certain faction leader in the base camp, which interfered with the overall command, and the air raid on the US mainland would be no wonder if it didn't fail. The final result of the failure, of course, will be determined by the commander General Guan Yamamoto himself took all the responsibilities, and those bosses who were secretly pointing fingers would not take the initiative to take responsibility!

"Hey, there are a few leaders of the base camp, like His Excellency Yongye, who have complete trust in themselves, never interfere with their own command operations, and trust themselves unconditionally!" General Yamamoto thought with emotion. The minister, the number one boss of the navy, and the leader, General Nagano Shuzan, are loyal and loyal. Does he have any kindness for him?

How to integrate several air teams made General Yamamoto very troubled. After thinking hard for a few days, there was no safest way. Under the condition of depression and hesitation, General Yamamoto came to the residence of General Nanye and prepared Ask me about my new friend and best friend.

The residence of General Nanye is in a secluded and beautiful place in Honolulu, surrounded by tall tropical trees, lush and lush, deep in the woods, beside a small river, several thatched houses are scattered along the river, with gurgling water and green trees In the shade, the hot wind of April in Hawaii has blown here, and the summer heat has disappeared, but it is a good place for peace and quiet.

"This Mr. Nanye, he really doesn't look like a soldier, he looks like a reclusive scholar, but I obviously don't have such interest, the battlefield where the gunfire is raging, the vast sea, is my favorite place, my real destination! General Yamamoto thought to himself, stopped the guards from saluting, and walked up the path paved with gravel.

Pushing open the wooden door of the thatched house, and walking into the room with wooden floor, it is quite cool, and I saw the thin general Nanye, alone, wearing a kimono, reclining lazily, on the short table, the gramophone was playing Singing Japanese folk songs, General Nanye held a cup of green tea in his hand, and while he was intoxicated, he was extremely carefree, like a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world!

"Nanye-kun, you are so elegant!" Seeing him coming in, Nanye didn't even lift his eyelids, and didn't even say hello, General Yamamoto couldn't help but said, with a sour taste in his tone .

General Nanye still didn't speak. He silently poured a cup of tea for General Yamamoto, pointed to the gramophone, and signaled him to finish listening to the record first.

General Yamamoto, who had a stomach full of bad things, was at a loss for what to do, and was almost burnt out, how could he be in such a mood and elegance, drank the tea in one gulp, patiently, finally finished listening to the record, and was just about to speak.

General Nanye spoke first, "Yamamoto-kun, you seem to be deeply worried. I don't know where the worry comes from?"

He is both a good friend and a buddy, and now he is a grasshopper on a rope, sharing weal and woe. General Yamamoto did not hide anything, and poured out all his thoughts and worries. During the period, there was no shortage of words of hatred.

When General Yamamoto was talking, General Nanye never interjected. After he poured out the bitter water, he smiled lightly, filled General Yamamoto's teacup, and said, "Yamamoto-kun, please drink another cup. I brewed it myself. Tea, tea can soothe the mind, and calm the mind naturally cools down! Doesn’t Yamamoto-kun understand this truth?”

"Damn you!" General Yamamoto cursed in his heart, almost raised his hand and overturned the table, and gave him a slap in the face. He was full of bad things and couldn't settle them. He assembled on the east coast of the United States. There are a large number of combat aircraft, and the pressure of keeping secrets is huge. If the problems we face are not resolved as soon as possible, once the Americans find the clues and are prepared, all plans will be ruined. I am so thoughtful. Tea ceremony?

Seeing that General Yamamoto blushed and his neck was thick, apparently suppressing his anger, General Minano continued: "Yamamoto-kun, you have entered into a misunderstanding of thinking!"

"How do you say that?"

"Yamamoto-kun, what do you hold in your hands now?"

"what?"

"Power, supreme power! The power to command all troops under the North American Combat Command!" General Nanye said firmly,

"I know, but power can't solve all problems! On the surface, power can solve things, but when it comes to internal grievances, factional struggles, long-standing disagreements between the army and the navy, power is not omnipotent, Nanye-kun , You are a member of the army system, you should have heard about this, and you have suffered from it, right?" General Yamamoto disagreed with his words, and retorted with puffy eyes.

Seeing that his best friend was still confused, General Nanye smiled and said lightly: "Yamamoto-kun, you are in the middle of the game and bound by your inherent thinking! This is not the Yamamoto-kun I know. ah!"
