    Tokyo, the Imperial Palace.

    When Yuasa Kurahei quickly walked into the imperial study, he saw Hirohito and Tojo Hideki drinking tea.

    "His Majesty the Emperor!" Yuasa Kurahei bowed deeply to Hirohito, stood up and nodded slightly to Tojo Hideki, and then continued, "I just received an internal report from the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Chongqing. Zhong Yi has arrived in Chongqing and officially  Take over as president of Army University.¡±

    "Oh?" Hirohito's eyes lit up when he heard this, "It's actually true!"

    Tojo Hideki sighed and said: "I really didn't expect that the Ministry of Internal Affairs could accomplish something that the Empire spent eight divisions failing to accomplish so easily."

    "No, you can't say that." Hirohito waved his hand and said, "However, Zhong Yi's transfer from the Zhejiang and Fujian battlefields is ultimately a good thing for the empire and the imperial army. No matter whether he continues to launch the fourth  For the Zhejiang-Fujian Campaign, it is better to step up preparations for offensive operations in Southeast Asia, and the empire will have much more room for maneuver."

    "Hai." Tojo Hideki paused and asked, "Your Majesty, what should we do next? Should we continue to launch the fourth Zhejiang-Fujian Campaign, or should we step up preparations for offensive operations in Southeast Asia?"

    Hirohito asked: "Tojo-kun, what do you think the empire should do next?"

    Tojo Hideki said: "I believe that after Zhong Yi was transferred, the threat to the imperial army from Yinjiang has been greatly reduced. Even if he is left here and ignored for the time being, he will not pose a threat to the imperial army, so this  At this time, the empire should concentrate all its efforts and step up preparations for war in Southeast Asia! Especially the navy must be prepared!"

    "Hey," Hirohito said happily, "Tojo-kun, you and I want to get together."

    After a pause, Hirohito continued: "Then let the Army Ministry and the Navy Ministry step up preparations."

    "Hai." Tojo Hideki said again, "So, will the negotiations between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the United States continue?"

    "Of course, of course we must continue to negotiate." An inexplicable cold light flashed across Hirohito's eyes, and he added, "Not only must we continue to negotiate with the United States, but we must also send higher-level officials to show sufficient sincerity!  We must convince the Americans that the Empire is serious about negotiating with them!"

    "Hai!" Tojo Hideki suddenly nodded, "I understand!"

    After leaving the Imperial Palace, Hideki Tojo did not return to the Prime Minister's Residence, but went directly to the War Ministry.

    Hearing that Hideki Tojo was coming to the War Ministry, Army Minister Shunroku Hata hurriedly brought officers from various sections of the War Department to the gate to greet him.

    Watching Tojo Hideki get out of the car, Shunroku Hata couldn't help but feel this way.

    Only three months ago, Tojo Hideki was just the deputy minister of the Ministry of War, but now, this guy has turned into the Prime Minister of the Empire. It is really unbelievable.

    Before Hata Shunroku could say anything, Tojo Hideki said first: "Hata-kun, please don't be polite. Let's hurry up and get down to business."

    "Hai." Shunroku Hata paused and said, "Then let's have a meeting first?"

    Tojo Hideki shook his head and whispered: "Don't rush into the meeting. Let's discuss it privately first."

    "Hai." Shunroku Hata nodded slightly, and immediately brought Hideki Tojo to his office.

    Withdrawing their respective adjutants, Tojo Hideki lowered his voice and said to Shunroku Hata: "Hata-kun, the latest news is that Zhong Yi has been transferred to Chongqing by Chang Kaishen to serve as the president of the Army University. The military pressure on the Zhejiang-Fujian battlefield can be regarded as relieved.  , next, we must go all out to prepare for war in Southeast Asia."

    "Hai." Hata Jun said after a pause, "I wonder if Tojo-kun has any instructions?"

    "Instructions are out of the question." Tojo Hideki shook his head and continued, "Let's just communicate with each other."

    After saying this for a while, Tojo Hideki continued: "The first thing is to choose the commander of the Southern Army. I wonder if Hata-kun has a suitable candidate?"

    Shunroku Hata whispered: "I wonder what the size of the Southern Army will be?"

    Tojo Hideki said: "It must be at least the same level as the China Condemnation Army and the Kwantung Army."

    Hata Shunroku pondered: "If this is the case, a general with sufficient prestige and qualifications must be sent. What does Tojo-kun think of Nishio-kun?"

    Nishio Hisao is the current commander of the Chinese Condemnation Army.

    However, Tojo Hideki shook his head and said: "Nishio-kun must stay in China to dispatch the condemnation army and cannot move lightly."

    Hata Junroku said: "In this case, it can only be Terauchi-kun. Apart from Terauchi-kun, there is no suitable candidate."

    "Terauchi-kun?" Tojo Hideki nodded happily.??, and then said, "Terauchi-kun is indeed very suitable. Not only does he have sufficient qualifications, but he also has noble status. I believe His Majesty will be very happy."

    After a pause, Tojo Hideki continued: "Now let's discuss the formation of the Southern Army. The most conservative estimate is that the Southern Army is also organized into four armies. What do you think, Hata-kun?"

    Hata Junroku said: "There is an army for Luzon Island, an army for the Indochina Peninsula, an army for the East Indies, and an army for Australia and the Western Pacific Islands. The four armies cannot be less. If possible, it is best to organize them into  Of the five corps, one corps can be formed separately for Guam, Guadalcanal and the Hawaiian Islands."

    "Well, what you said makes sense, Mr. Hata." Tojo nodded and said, "After all, what Guam, Guadalcanal and the Hawaiian Islands have to face are reinforcements from the United States. They do need enough troops. Then  On the basis of the 14th, 15th, 16th and 25th armies, the 26th army will be formed."

    Hata Shunroku said happily: "Tš­jo-kun is wise."

    Since Hideki Tojo became Prime Minister, the relationship between the two has become more pleasant. This is a result that Toshiro Hata never expected. You must know that when Hideki Tojo was still the deputy minister of the Ministry of War  , the overt and secret fighting between the two of them is simply incompatible.

    After a pause, Shunroku Hata said again: "Tojo-kun, what are the candidates for the commanders of these five armies?"

    Since Tojo Hideki became Prime Minister, he has not been so obsessed with the personnel arrangements of the War Ministry. Anyway, as long as Shunroku Hata does not propose to let Kanji Ishihara be the commander, anything else will do.

    At that moment, Tojo Hideki whispered: "Hata-kun, why don't you tell me about the suitable candidate in your mind?"

    Although Tojo Hide showed enough goodwill, Shunroku Hata did not want to go too far. Moreover, the division of camps in the Japanese army was not that complicated. No matter who was recommended or not, being a recommender would not be of much benefit.

    At that moment, Shunroku Hata said impartially: "Honma-kun, Iida-kun and Imamura-kun should all be suitable candidates."

    "Both Iida-kun and Imamura-kun have suffered defeats before. Is it really good for them to serve as commanders of the First Army?" Tojo Hideki frowned and asked, "Is there any other candidate?" (Remember this site)  Website: www.hlnovel.com
