Nonsense! Tojo and Kuriyama Shikijipei are at the same time, and Tojo is powerful. "The latter stared at Itagaki with a vicious look. Tojo Kiyoki coughed: "It is absolutely impossible to withdraw troops from China. Withdrawal of troops seriously damage morale, and fighting against the Soviet Union is even more impossible! Furthermore, for decades, millions of imperial soldiers have sprinkled blood on the China continent, and they must not give up!"

"Banhuanjun, you are cowardly!" Shan Shanyuan also shouted loudly, and the sparse white hair on his head was almost standing: "There are four, the imperial army is invincible, and Chiang Kai-shek will never pay the price!"

Seishiro Itagaki felt that this was indeed a bit weak, so he changed his words and said, "If this is the case, I will go to negotiate with Chiang Kai-shek in person. We can give up all the occupied areas south of the Great Wall and negotiate with him on this condition. He is acceptable..."

The Guards, including the Guards, were stunned. The Guards still remember that during the Lugou Bridge Incident, Bantan was one of the most violent disturbances. They led a division from Peking to Taiyuan, and then from Taiyuan to Nanjing. They landed in Qingdao and occupied the Jiaodong Peninsula. They had an unparalleled reputation, but now they have offered to give up everything they have obtained.

"I think it's OK. As long as we defeat the Soviet Union, we can get back what we temporarily gave up in the future." Another player Akira Muto expressed his support at the time when the expansion of the sect was expressed.

"Bang!" Tojo was furious and patted the chair and said, "Absolutely no! How can you do this! The blood of the Imperial Army will be in vain! Absolutely no! I will never agree!"

Seishiro Itagaki and Akira Muto sighed almost at the same time. The Chinese War had fallen into a quagmire. The Chinese government army still had four million troops, of which the well-equipped and well-trained Central Army had more than two million, and this number continued to expand.

In order to resolve the China Incident, the Japanese military and political elites racked their brains to induce Wang Jingwei, but did not get much effect. Doihara and Kagesao proposed to continue negotiations with Chiang Kai-shek. The commander of the 11th Army, Nishi Munmura, asked to increase troops, and at the same time proposed a huge strategy, believing that they should follow the route of Mongolia conquering the Southern Song Dynasty, first take down Xi'an, then cross the Qinling Mountains, and then enter the four from the north." Then they surrounded the main force of the Chinese army in the two lakes.

This strategy was supported by the commander of the dispatched army, Shizuo Tada, but unexpectedly, Suzusa Nishio proposed another strategy. This strategy was to deal with the Soviet Union on the surface, but in fact it was to target China. Nishimura Nishio was based on military operations, while Suzusa Nishio was based on political means.

But both methods require a large increase in troops, but it is difficult to do so. The Wuhan battle has already made Japan use its strength to do it. Not to mention the domestic weapons and ammunition, even students of seventeen or eighteen years old are sent to the battlefield. Whether it is Okamura Yasuji or Nishiosuzuki's strategy, a large increase in troops is required. Nishiosuzuki proposed to shrink the China battlefield and draw troops from it. Nishiosuzuki directly asked for an additional 500,000 troops to first wipe out Yan Xishan's Jin army and the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi, then from the north and east, two routes into Shaanxi, and defeat the Shaanxi squadron in one fell swoop, and cross the Qinling Mountains next year and attack Sichuan.

"Only going south" Jingchun shouted loudly: "The reason why China can continue to resist the Imperial Army is because of the support of Britain and the United States. We can concentrate our efforts to attack the British army, which can also achieve the goal of assisting Germany and obtain resources to continue the war."

"That would cause intervention from the US prefectures," Muto Akira retorted: "The United States is stronger than the Soviet Union, and Nishio Jun said it well, and the troops were concentrated. This world war has formed the result of the German, Japanese and Italian steel axis against China, Britain and the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union will be their main force. Only by defeating the Soviet Union can we take the initiative in the war."

"Mutou's words are good. Compared with the enemy, we are already at a disadvantage in human resources. If the United States is brought into war, our disadvantage will be even more obvious, and the risk of going south is greater than going north." Yan Junliu said slowly.

The meeting was always in a stalemate, from declaring war on the Soviet Union, to the China Incident, to the south and south, back to the north or south, and then talking about the situation in the country. Seeing that the meeting was about to end in failure, Tojo was a little anxious. He said to Omemo Fumima: "Prime Minister, what are your opinions?"

As Prime Minister, Fumima Konomi was always silent throughout the meeting, sitting there gracefully and dullly, as if listening to everyone's opinions, but also seemed to be at a loss, which made people a little unpredictable.

"The empire cannot be enemies of the whole world." The guards said slowly: "If we want to go north, how many troops can the navy deploy?"

"The Soviet Far East Fleet is not strong, you only need to dispatch dozens of destroyers." Nagano's slim self-cultivation seemed very calm. Soviet Russia was not a naval power, and the Far East Fleet was even weaker. It was almost the same as when it was Tsarist Russia, but Japan had the third strongest fleet in the world, and its strength was not at the same level at all.

"It takes a large number of troops to go north, and going south is likely to conflict with the United States. The China Incident is in the middle, and the country is in a difficult situation." The Guard sighed.

"What else? If the United States interferes, then fight!" Net Jingchun was very angry and his tone became even more stiff.

"With Germany's cooperation, I have no confidence in fighting the Soviet Union. The US and the two Soviet Union guards looked at Net Jingchun with such weirdness. Net Jinghua guessed the words. Sato and Tsukada Oku, who were calling fiercely just now, didn't say anything.

"No matter what, we are the first to show confidence." Tojo's momentum is still very strong: "It's really not possible, we will do both sides, the navy goes south and the army goes north."

"How can this work?" Shan Shanyuan immediately opposed: "The empire has no strength to fight the United States, Britain, China and the Soviet Union at the same time.

"The main force of the empire is trapped in China. If you want to fight the United States and the Soviet Union, you must shrink the front of the Chinese state." Yan Junliu thought, "I think Nishiwei's suggestion makes some sense, such as Guangzhou and Fuzhou. I think you can give up. General Guzhuang's 21st Army can be liberated by more than 50,000 people. The blockade of Guangzhou can be handed over to the navy, and Fuzhou can also be given up. In this way, there will be more than 60,000 people. Then, 50,000 people are drawn from the 11th Army, and another 100,000 troops are formed in the country. One million troops participating in the war are enough. After all, we are just cooperative, and Germany is the main battlefield.

”

"It's better to wait a little longer. We can only wait until Germany attacks Moscow and we will take action. This will achieve twice the result with half the effort, and the risk is the most," said Jinwei Wenmo.

"But the weather is cold in the north, so it is best to take action in July if you want to attack, otherwise it will be very difficult to fight once winter comes." Yan Junliu explained: "The cabinet should make a decision as soon as possible and then mobilize the troops immediately

Kono's weak character was undoubtedly exposed at this time. He hesitated for a moment and looked at Shinji as if asking for help. Yuan and Nagano slim, Shinyama slim shut up, Nagano slim pretended not to see him.

"Then giving up Guangzhou and Fuzhou is the only decision. The Guard finally nodded. Tojo urged his cheeks to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything. The young officers in the Army Province had long clamored to declare war on the Soviet Union, which put a lot of pressure on him.

"Where is the troops in Indochina? Should they withdraw or continue to stay there?" Nagano Chuangshen felt that the northward advance had passed. If they advanced northward, there would be no need for this troops to stay in Indochina.

"It can't be like this." Yan Junliu said: "If we give up Guangzhou too quickly, we will alarm the Soviet Union and ask Gu Zhuangjun to shrink his troops. Once the order is received, Li Xuan will give up Guangzhou."

"A brigade was drawn from the 21st army to enter Indochina." Tojo said suddenly: "The Yunnan-Vietnam-Vietnam Railway must be cut off."

The guards are getting bigger, isn’t this the same as having two sides to set up a net? The question is not to go back to whether to go north or south. There are benefits that can be obtained when going south, but you have to bear the risk of the United States participating in the war, and the danger of Germany taking the alliance. The attitude of going north to the United States is unpredictable and cannot see the actual interests, but it is much safer politically.

"When the hangzi is familiar, the Germans will not fight to Moscow so soon." Nagao Cultivator saw Pan Jinwei in a dilemma, so he kindly resolved it for him: "We can make preparations for both ways. On the one hand, we enter Indochina, and on the other hand, we order the Kwantung Army to conduct a large-scale military exercise. In response to Germany's demands, we also test the Kwantung Army's war preparations.

"Okay, then let's do this. This decision will not be offended. It not only appeases the radical officer who is eager to fight, but also stabilizes the navy that is demanding to go south. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone. The guards hurriedly agree.

The decision at the liaison meeting soon became a cabinet decision. Songwang met with the French ambassador to Japan accused the French authorities in Vietnam, allowing military materials to enter China through the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway, and demanded that France withdraw from Vietnam and be stationed by the Japanese army. This request was flatly rejected by France's conquest.

In early July, Songwang once again negotiated with France, making it clear that if the French army refused, the Japanese army would take free action and enter Vietnam. The Beishang government asked the German government to intervene, but Hitler firmly refused.

France surrendered, and Bethan ordered the French army to withdraw from Vietnam and enter Cambodia and Laos. On July 5, the Japanese army entered Vietnam in full swing.

Japan's action made the United States and Britain very nervous. The US government immediately responded harshly. Two days later, on July 7, it announced an oil embargo on Japan and frozen Japan's assets in the United States. On July 8, the UK announced that it would stop exporting oil to Japan and freeze Japanese assets in the United Kingdom. On July 9, the Dutch and Indian authorities announced that they would respond to the US decision.

The United States, Britain and the Netherlands simultaneously imposed an embargo on Japan, which was equivalent to imposing an embargo on Japan around the world. Japan was suddenly in desperate situation, and the top Japanese officials were in chaos, and the calls for war to go south to start again.

"The war must be started by Li Xuan, otherwise the joint fleet will have no oil to start." Okayama almost pressed his head to Nagano's slim nose, and shouted frantically: "Occupy the Dutch East Indian Ocean, drive the United States out of the Philippines, and occupy Singapore. The entire East Asia is ours. What are you waiting for!"
