"Yamamoto! I need explanation, the empire needs explanation, His Majesty the Emperor and the imperial subjects also need explanation!" As Chen Honglie expected, Yamamoto Izuru appeared at the Japan Imperial Conference.

The tens of thousands of Japanese army were abandoned directly, which caused a huge shock. The red-eyed army had even raised its flag and shouted at the entrance of the base camp to kill Yamamoto.

After learning that tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers were abandoned in the vast sea, the staff members of the Army General Staff were directly paralyzed. You know, this is not just a problem with tens of thousands of soldiers. The bigger problem is the ships lost by the Army and Navy in this battle!

This is directly related to the problem of resource transportation in Southeast Asia. In order to meet the army's requirement to withdraw everyone at the fastest speed, almost all ships in Japan were plundered.

As Prime Minister, Hideki Tojo even went to the big chaebols to negotiate for this. He used Southeast Asian resource development as bait in exchange for the absolute support of their large fleets.

Although the army is very powerful and the prime minister has great power, they do not want to completely offend all the Japanese chaebols. Many chaebols actually have an indescribable relationship with the army and even the royal family. If the army and Hideki Tojo force them to leave the ship, once the backlash is backfired, it will not be possible for the army to bear it.

And this time, the ships of these chaebols were almost wiped out! The consequences of this were juliè and terrible. These chaebols with huge losses were now red. If the army and the navy did not give a statement, they would definitely make trouble with the Emperor.

Hideki Tojo is now having a headache. The chaebols have already warned the Prime Minister openly and secretly that the Army and Navy must make compensation for them. Otherwise...

Needless to say, Hideki Tojo also knows that these chaebols have grown up with Japan. Some can even be traced back to before Meiji.

After all, let alone Hideki Tojo, even Miyao Miyaki Hae-in dared not offend them all to death.

If it weren't for the great loss this time, these people wouldn't have challenged Hideki Tojo directly. But this time, almost all the fleets were gone in this battle.

Anyone else would have to be anxious. These chaebols were already calm because they did not use their relationships and power to deal with Hideki Tojo.

"I have nothing to explain. I had no other choice in the situation at that time, or let the joint fleet be buried in the sea, or we chose to cut off our arm..."

Yamamoto stood up slowly, and the naval generals around him couldn't bear to look at him. Although everyone knew that Yamamoto's choice was correct. This time, he only lost some of the fighter planes and an old battleship, which was the best result.

This war is more intense than the last time in Shanghai. The last time they lost two aircraft carriers and two battleships. Compared with that, the losses this time were much smaller.

"So, you gave up the orders of the ships and those army soldiers?!" Hideki Tojo directly skipped Yama Izuru's explanation and said decisively.

What Tojo wants now is that Yamamoto Izuru admits that he ordered the abandonment of those fleets, so that if Yamamoto Izuru takes the blame, he will be much more relaxed.

"I ordered it, and I am willing to take all the responsibility for it..." Yamamoto was silent for a while and said, "Prime Minister. I am willing to bear any punishment for me by the base camp. The other officers and soldiers of the Joint Fleet are just acting on orders. Please do not make things difficult for them..."

"You don't have to worry about this matter. Now all you have to do is leave here and go back to the base camp to wait for your Majesty to judge you." Hideki Tojo waved his hand and said to Izuru Yamamoto: "Take care about yourself first!"

Yamamoto Iroku sighed deeply. In fact, when he made the decision to give up those ships, he had already guessed what he would face after returning to Japan.

Yamamoto did not make any more excuses, but stood up and left the imperial meeting under the escort of the military police.

"Prime Minister, I think you also know that Yamamoto's choice is correct. Under that condition, we are simply unable to fight the National Defense Forces." The head of the navy, Fushimi Miyagi Hirokage, looked at Yamamoto's back and sighed: "The detailed battle report. I believe the Prime Minister has read it, at least I think Yamamoto's handling is not wrong..."

Fushimi Miyaki Hiroki is the royal family. Even if Hideki Tojo is dissatisfied, he dares not be rude to him. However, Hideki Tojo bows slightly behind him and says.

"Your Highness, I want to tell you too. This is not unreasonable. You know that I have asked the chaebols for this retreat. They have suffered a lot in this battle. At this point, those chaebols will not give up if we don't do anything."

Tojo Hideki's words were very obscure, but Fushimiya understood that Tojo was asking for a price. The price was paid by the navy. After all, if the navy made this choice, the navy must bear the responsibility.

The current situation is that the resources in Southeast Asia cannot be sent back for the time being, and the remaining resources must be used to build a transport fleet. The requirements for those lost chaebols are very simple, at least they have to supplement some of the fleets they have lost.

In other words, the navy needs to take out its own resources to build transport ships and subsidize those chaebols. In exchange for those chaebols not pursuing Yamamoto, the navy also needs to be sealed off on the army.

Otherwise, once either side pursues and fights relentlessly, it will be a great disaster for the navy. As soon as Tojo Hideki opened his mouth, everyone's eyes turned.

Xianyuan Miyaki Zairen seemed to have glanced at Fushimimiya inadvertently, but the slightly floating corners of his eyes already showed his attitude. In his opinion, the Navy gave up part of his own interests.

"In addition to the necessary part of our reserve materials, we can build about eight 10,000-ton ships." As the head of the Navy's military command, Fushimiya naturally knew the navy's reserves well.

If eight 10,000-ton ships were given, the naval generals present turned pale. This was directly picked out from the gaps of the navy's teeth! Many warships and carrier-based aircraft construction work will be stopped.

"The resources returned from Southeast Asian Games within a year are only 30% of the Navy." The eight 10,000-ton ships are used to supply the chaebols. And the Army is not easy to fool.

Fushimimiya thought for a while and gritted her teeth and said, "I believe that if this happens, no one will pursue it again, right?"

Xianyuangong nodded. It seemed that the Navy had invested a lot. Southeast Asia's resources were only 30% within a year, which was undoubtedly a dig for the Navy.

"Your Highness, although I don't want to say it, I still have to say it." Hideki Tojo bowed slightly and said to Fushimimiya: "At least for half a year, Yamamoto needs to stay in the reserve. This is a necessary explanation for the imperial subjects and the army."

Tojo Hideki's meaning is very simple. In any case, Yamamoto Iroku must be punished at the forefront of this storm. Of course, after the calm waves are calm, the Navy can call him again.

But now we must express our attitude. This is also an explanation for public opinion. You can't ruin tens of thousands of army soldiers without any scratches?! This will make everyone feel disappointed.

This imperial meeting was different from the past. There was no record of any record at the meeting. The only record was the first question of Yamamoto Izuru. The subsequent communication between the Navy and the Prime Minister was completely unrecorded.

Three days after Yamamoto Izuru returned to Japan, the cabinet announced the disposal of Yamamoto Izuru. Yamamoto Izuru and two Imperial naval captains were deported to the reserve.

At the same time, many officers and soldiers of the joint fleet were ordered to retire. Fushimi Miyagi Hakukyu personally delivered a speech on the radio and apologized for the impact of the matter.

"Our sacrifice is too great, just for me. It's not worth it..." Yamamoto Iroku is now in the office of Fushimi Miyaki Hakukyu, and outside the window there are banners describing Yamamoto Iroku.

"I think it's worth it for you to continue fighting for the empire." Fushimiya looked coldly at the crowd below with banners in groups of three or three, and said, "If you hadn't made a quick decision, our losses would have been greater."

"It's just eight transport ships. We can afford it. It's just a reduction in the supply of resources within a year, and we can also afford it. But if you stop commanding, then I'm not sure that I can escape unscathed in the next fight with the enemy."

Fushimi Miyaki Hiroki saw a long time, and Yamamoto Izuru's value lies in this. If Yamamoto was gone this time, the losses of the Japanese Combined Fleet would definitely be more than that.

It is even possible that the main warships will be destroyed on the sea. The battle report has recorded that in the later stage of the battle, the National Defense Forces bombers arrived with heavy bombs that could sink aircraft carriers.

If Yamamoto had not decided to evacuate at full speed in advance and arrived at the edge of the fighter's combat radius at that time, no one would dare to say how much the Navy would suffer.

The loss of warships is not a big problem. The losses of those sailors with jingyàn are the most serious matters. Once the joint fleet suffers too much, it will take more time to form combat effectiveness.

It may even cause a chain reaction. Americans want to avenge Pearl Harbor's revenge for a day or two. If the joint fleet suffers too much, it is difficult to guarantee that the United States will not consider launching a strike against Japan.

"Yamamoto, in my opinion, your existence is more important than two or even five aircraft carriers. Because of you, we will lose a lot of less aircraft carriers." Fushimiya obviously valued Yamamoto very much, turned around and patted his shoulder and said, "I feel wronged first, wait in the reserve. Our warships also need maintenance. When the right time is right, I will let you come out to command."

"Hayi!!" Yamamoto bowed and shouted gratefully to Fushimimiya.

At this time, Long Sheng, the third elder of the Long family, was taking his men to launch a strong attack on the Myitkyina border. After the Air Force reported the results, the General Command of the National Defense Force issued a combat order to the Southwest Military Region.

The first is that the Southwest Military Region launched a strong attack on Myitkyina region, Dien Bien, Liangshan, etc., and the main attack on Myitkyina region in Myitkyina region in Myitkyina region in Myitkyina was Long Yun, who is now in the limelight.

"Crash! Where is the rocket launcher?! All his grandmother died at home?! Hurry up and knock out their firepower points for me!" Long Shengzeng was now the regiment commander, but the regiment commander seemed to be unsatisfied and stayed in the rear.

According to him, he had to go to the front line and was called a man. His comrades-in-arms in the South China, North China and East China Military Regions made him jealous. When those photos with military medals were sent to him, Long Sheng secretly vowed that he could not be worse than these old comrades-in-arms and old classmates.

Therefore, when the Southwest Military Region received the combat order, the dragon rope that had already planned eight hundred times had entered Myitkyina with its own troops like a wind.

After working hard, he actually hit the Mogan area of ​​Myitkyina in one breath. If it weren't for the Japanese and local forces joining the army for emergency support, he might even be able to fight directly to Kama and other places.

"Swoosh swish swish swish swish...boom boom..." There were waves of rocket launching sounds from behind, and dozens of rockets hit the Japanese positions directly, and a piece of dust suddenly burst out.

"TuTuTuTu..." The heavy machine guns below also began to roar, and then the commandos began to fight towards the position. After a while, these commandos had already entered the Japanese position, and the two sides immediately launched a fierce hand-to-hand combat.

Long Sheng once swung a big sword and took the lead. He roared and rushed to the position. He raised his sword and fell. Several Japanese heads were flying. Seeing that his regiment commander was so fierce, the morale of the soldiers below was greatly boosted.

The continuous warriors rushed to the Japanese position that had been broken through, and shouts and fighting sounds were endless on the position. Most of these warriors had been trained for more than half a year or even a year of jungle combat training. They had long been accustomed to the climate and combat methods of tropical combat.

During the training period, I was frustrated when I watched the comrades from other military regions make military achievements, and at this moment it erupted like a volcano. A brigade gathered at this position was almost completely injured and killed in more than an hour of battle.

Forced, the Japanese army chose to withdraw from their positions. The panting dragon rope did not order to pursue him. Now his regiment suffered a lot of casualties. He wove a reinforced regiment of nearly 4,000 people. He fought all the way and now there are less than 2,000 people.

And it was getting late, and Dragon Rope had to ask to go down and clean the battlefield and start camping and repairing.

Then he reported the situation here to his direct superior. Soon the battle report was handed over to Lu Han, the commander-in-chief of the legion, and Lu Han was very pleased with the battle report.

"After all, I didn't lose the power of Chairman Long. The rope has been beaten well this time!" Lu Han said with a smile while holding the battle report. Long Yun and Lu Han had a deep friendship and trusted each other very much.

Lao Lu has been Long Yun’s confidant since the 1911 period. Even after the 1911 years, he married Long Zeqing, Long Yun’s cousin, which brought the relationship between the two sides closer.

"Forward the telegram to the General Command. Wow... ask the command center to tell Governor Long about this situation." Lu Han, who studied at the National Defense University, knew that the military rules of the National Defense Forces were extremely strict, and this kind of war report should not be sent to Long Yun, a local chief.

But Lu Han still wanted to tell his old friend about this. Although Long Sheng once was a world-wide person, Long Yun also liked it. However, Long Sheng's love for Peking Opera made Long Yun very unacceptable.

Moreover, Long Sheng once said it was too rude. This child has a reputation in all major mountains in Yunnan. Sometimes, even putting on his name is more effective than his father's.

In history, Longsheng once relied on his prestige to mobilize hundreds of thousands of people in central Yunnan to build the extremely important Yunnan-Burma Highway during the War of Resistance.

At the same time, as elected by people from all walks of life in Yunnan as the chairman of the Yunnan Driver Federation, he actually achieved the goal of robbers in Yunnan, where bandits were rampant, and completely protected the anti-Japanese material fleet carrying international foreign aid, and successfully passed through this only land transportation line between China and the world.

This ability is not something that ordinary people can do. But in Long Yun, who is used to tradition, his son is not doing his job properly. He is mixed with people from all walks of life and ruins his family traditions.

That's why Lu Han thought about sending this battle report to Long Yun to make him feel at ease. Long Sheng had grown up and was no longer the son who could only hang out with all kinds of religions and hiding.

"Boom! Boom!! Boom..." Longshengzu, who was fighting in Dienbian, was not as lucky as his younger brother. His 24th Division had just arrived in battle and encountered strong obstacles from the Japanese army.

The Japanese army arranged a brigade of troops on five high grounds. The situation in Dienbian was far more complicated than that in Myitkyina, which was close to Thailand, and Thailand had already announced its participation in the Japanese camp after the Japanese army captured Southeast Asia.

Therefore, the Japanese army can calmly mobilize troops from Thailand. At the same time, they can also receive the supplies and military support provided by Thailand.

"Go and ask Yang Bocheng, will he fight?! If you don't know, please remove me and don't embarrass me on it!!" Long Shengzu looked at the stalemate situation and roared angrily: "Come here! Gather the guard camp and prepare to come with me!"

But at this moment, Long Shengzu saw Yang Hongguang, the commander of the 541st Brigade, walk into the command center in a dusty state. The smoke covered with gunpowder showed what kind of hard battle the brigade commander had gone through.

"Teacher, I know you are getting angry. I think I, Yang Bocheng, are lazy and afraid of death. But what I want to say is that there is no man in the May 41st Brigade!" As he said that, Yang Hongguang gritted his teeth, tears in his eyes.

"My May 41st Brigade, two regiment commanders died and one seriously injured. The battalion commander died in battle, and the platoon leader lost one third! None of the men who can stand up now have a regiment! Tell me, are my May 41st Brigade afraid of death?!"

Long Shengzu sighed when he heard this, waved at Yang Hongguang and let him sit down.

"We don't have much time now. This time, the three major military regions of South China, North China and East China have made outstanding achievements in Shandong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang. And going abroad with a famous name is the first bite of our Southwest Military Region. We cannot produce results as soon as possible. What kind of face do we have to ask for new equipment from the command center in the future?!"

Dragon Rope Ancestor sighed and said, "Uncle Bocheng, I am also anxious..." (To be continued...)
