Ishihara smiled and said: "As for the competition between Japan and the United States, I have already made a conclusion several years ago. Why should Okamura-kun ask questions knowingly?"
Okamura Neji was silent when he heard this.
He suddenly remembered that Ishihara Kanji had made a clear statement on Japan's future when he was the chief of staff of the Kwantung Army.
At that time, Kanji Ishihara firmly opposed Japan¡¯s all-out war against China.
Ishihara Kanji insisted that Japan¡¯s small territory and insufficient population would make it absolutely impossible to annex China in a short period of time, so the most appropriate approach should be to digest Manchuria and North Korea.
After ten to twenty years, when Korea and Manchuria have completely become an integral part of Japan, Japan will have become one of the top powers in the Far East in terms of both land size and population, perhaps even less than the size of China. There is still a gap in population, but at least it is not that disparity.
But on an industrial basis, Japan has an overwhelming advantage.
At this time, Japan declares war on China again. According to historical experience, the result will be devastating, and it will even take less than a year to occupy the entire territory of China!
After completely annexing China, and after thirty to fifty years of digestion, the newly born Japanese Empire will become the world's leading power. Then whether it is going north to compete with the Red Soviet Union for hegemony, or going south to compete with Western powers such as the United States and Britain for Southeast Asian islands and In terms of dominance in the Pacific, Japan will have an absolute advantage!
This is the grand strategy proposed by Ishihara Kanji regarding Japan¡¯s future!
However, this strategy was firmly opposed by the Showa warlords headed by Tojo Hideki.
The final result was that Ishihara Kanji was transferred back to Japan and served as the commander of Tsurumai Fortress, while Tojo Hideki confidently stepped into the high position of deputy minister of the army.
As Tojo Hideki¡¯s senior and close friend, Okamura Neji cannot easily judge his character, but from the bottom of his heart, Okamura Neiji actually agrees with Ishihara Kanji¡¯s grand strategy.
At that moment, Neji Okamura said a little depressed: "So, does the empire still have a chance to win now?"
Ishihara smiled and shook his head and asked: "Does Mr. Okamura want to hear the truth or a lie?"
"Forget it, I won't say anything anymore." A look of displeasure flashed across Okamura Neiji's face, and he continued, "Ishihara-kun, although you didn't say anything, I have already given the answer."
"Really? Okamura-kun, do you really have the answer?" Ishihara smiled slightly, and then said, "The truth is that the empire still has a chance to win! But the chance is already very slim. If you make a wrong step in the next few years, , then what awaits the empire will be a disaster."
"Really? Then I really guessed wrong." Okamura Neiji said, "Ishihara-kun, please elaborate."
Ishihara Wanji nodded and said: "Originally, if we follow the three-step strategy of first Korea, then Manchuria, and then China, the empire can be said to be as stable as a rock without taking any risks!"
"But even if we start a full-scale war against China before digesting Manchuria, it will not be out of control."
"In the nearly three years of war, although the empire wasted a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, it was not without gains."
"At least, the empire gained an elite army with a strength of two million, and now, it also has a powerful air force with more than 7,000 combat aircraft!"
¡°With such a huge armed force, the empire can sweep through Southeast Asia effortlessly.¡±
"Wait a minute." Okamura Neiji couldn't help but interrupt Ishihara and said with a smile, "Ishihara-kun, you said that the empire can sweep across Southeast Asia effortlessly? Do you really think so?"
Ishihara smiled and asked: "Don't Okamura-kun think so?"
"I don't think so." Neji Okamura said seriously, "Southeast Asia is a colony of Western powers. There are more than 70,000 American troops stationed on Luzon Island, tens of thousands of French troops stationed in Vietnam, and even more in Malaysia and Myanmar. The British Empire has more than 100,000 garrison troops, and the combat effectiveness of the Western army cannot be compared to that of the Chinese army."
"No, no, no, Okamura-kun, my judgment is exactly the opposite of yours." Ishihara smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't think that the Chinese army is vulnerable to the imperial army, oh wait, except for the Chinese army led by Zhong Yi. In short, the overall combat effectiveness of the Chinese Army is far inferior to that of the Imperial Army, but compared with the armies of the Western powers, their combat effectiveness is only stronger than that of the Western powers!"
"Don't brag, the base camp only needs to give me four permanent divisions, and I can wipe out the entire Southeast Asia and annihilate the Western armies in Luzon, Vietnam and Malaysia! If the navy is willing to help, I can even?Occupying Australia, the British Empire is actually far weaker than we imagined. "
Okamura Neji said in astonishment: "Ishihara-kun, if you tell me this, wouldn't the situation be great?"
"Is the situation looking good?" Ishihara smiled and shook his head and said, "Okamura-kun might as well look eastward."
Okamura Neji¡¯s eyes followed the map eastward, and then he said in a deep voice: "Pacific Ocean? U.S. Navy? Mainland United States?"
"To be precise, it's the United States! The United States is the ultimate rival of the empire!" Ishihara smiled and said, "Although the current world hegemon is the British Empire, in fact, the British Empire is just a superficial appearance, and the United States is the real industry. A powerful country, its industrial manufacturing capacity even exceeds that of Germany, Britain and the Empire combined!"
"Once such a huge industrial machine is transformed into a military industry!"
"Once such a huge war machine is activated at full power, what kind of energy will it burst out, Okamura-kun, have you seriously considered it?"
Okamura Neji said: "What will be the consequences?"
"The consequences are" Ishihara Kanji took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Within one year, the United States may produce more than 100,000 combat aircraft, hundreds of thousands of tanks, millions of cannons, and dozens of There are even hundreds of aircraft carriers, and there are even more cruisers, which is just like dumplings!"
Okamura Neji took a deep breath and said, "Ishihara-kun, is this such an exaggeration?"
"This may be a bit exaggerated." Ishihara smiled, "But even if it is less than this number, it will not be too far apart. The industrial strength of the United States is really not comparable to that of the empire."
Okamura Neji said: "According to what you say, the empire will definitely lose?"
"That's not true." Ishihara Kanji said, "If the empire can rely on its powerful land, sea and air force to sweep across Southeast Asia and Australia in the shortest possible time, then completely annihilate the U.S. Navy's Pacific Fleet, and finally seize Midway Island and Hawaii Island, end the As long as the U.S. Navy maintains a foothold in the Pacific, the Empire will be invincible!¡±
"What do you mean?" Okamura Neiji asked, "How can you be invincible?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
