Chapter 350 The excitement of Prime Minister Konoe Fumiko (Chapter 3 is here today)
When the Japanese Army Headquarters and His Majesty received the proposal jointly signed by Commander Terauchi Juichi and General Hata Shunroku via secret message, they also attached great importance to it.
Because Liu Feiyang really caused too much damage to the Japanese troops, whether it was the navy or the army, Liu Feiyang's army suffered heavy defeats.
So when faced with the matter of how to obtain new weapons and equipment, the base camp and their Majesty were heartbroken and frowning.
Because domestic domestic military industrial enterprises are not capable of scientific and technological research and development!
It is impossible to develop new weapons and equipment in a short period of time to cope with the sneak attacks of Liu Feiyang's troops' endless new weapons and equipment.
It really makes the Japanese base camp and their Majesty feel too angry.
But for a while there was nothing I could do,
So after the proposal jointly signed by Commander Juichi Terauchi and General Hata Shunroku via secret message, the base camp took the lead in convening an emergency meeting to prepare to purchase new weapons and equipment from the German army in accordance with the proposal of Commander Terauchi Juichi and General Hata Shunroku.
But this premise is only if the German army is willing.
So after the base camp passed the majority vote, Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro rushed into the palace that same day to meet Emperor Hirohito and ask for his approval.
"I can approve it, but you have to ask the German army if they agree, otherwise everything will be in vain. And I feel that our weapons and equipment are not much worse than those of the German army. You didn't see us in Songhu
During the battle, how did you beat the Chinese Army's self-proclaimed most powerful German weapon master to pieces?"
"Especially after the battle of the capital of the China Army, the elite 88th German Arms Division and the 87th German Arms Division, which they boasted about, were almost completely destroyed!"
"At least most of the elite veterans have died on the Songhu battlefield and are no longer on the battlefield in the capital. Even if they can be rebuilt in the future, they will no longer be the original elite division!"
"So this time when you plan to buy new weapons and equipment from the German army, you must buy weapons and equipment that are newer than ours!"
"Otherwise, don't buy it. It's a waste of time and money, and you owe them a favor!"
When Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro entered the palace and discussed with Emperor Hirohito, Hirohito immediately shook his head and analyzed.
"Hai!"
"Your Majesty! We will definitely purchase this carefully, and we will not buy any equipment that is worse than the weapons and equipment used by our current troops!"
Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro immediately nodded respectfully and agreed.
"Well! I know you are all smart people, so let me leave it to you to take charge!"
"Also, let me once again urge the research and development speed of our slow military industrial companies. If they cannot meet my expected time and complete the research and development and production of new weapons and equipment, then I don't mind giving them a good punishment.
, I’m not just saying it this time!”
"Because Liu Feiyang's command has defeated our Imperial Army over and over again, it has become a joke among foreigners all over the world. Even Chinese newspapers have published reports on our defeat everywhere.
, it’s really too shameful, it’s simply losing the face of our empire, and as your emperor, I also want to lose face!”
"But now not only is my face lost, but the empire's face is also lost!"
"The whole world is laughing at us as we are no match for the China Army with its backward weapons and equipment!"
As soon as Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro finished speaking, Emperor Hirohito's face suddenly turned ugly and he roared angrily.
"Hai!"
"We will definitely deal with this damn Liu Feiyang and his damned China Army troops!"
Being scolded by Emperor Hirohito, Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro immediately lowered his head and expressed his position loudly.
"But can you get rid of Liu Feiyang and his troops?"
"He and his troops are an anomaly of the China Army. They are not the China Army troops with backward weapons and equipment and low combat quality that we usually encounter, but a heavy firepower that we have never faced before.
The configuration is even better than that of our ordinary elite troops!"
"The whole world deliberately ignored this and came to laugh at our defeat!"
"But I firmly believe that even if those self-righteous foreign troops encounter such an abnormal elite force among the elites of the China Army, they will be beaten to pieces and run away!"
"It's even worse than our defeat!"
Emperor Hirohito seemed not to have heard Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro's response, and was still in a state of rage, muttering to himself.
"..."
Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro was speechless in response to this.
"But you should give it a try! But I suggest that in addition to purchasing new weapons and equipment from the German army, you can also communicate with other major powers, including the United States and other top powers!"
"According to the intelligence received by that idiot Kenji Doi, these powerful countries are now quickly accelerating the development of their new weapons and equipment, and attach great importance to the source of the new weapons and equipment used by Liu Feiyang's troops!"
"Now where Liu Feiyang's relatives and friends are, not only are our empire's spies lurking, but foreign spies are also dispatched!"
"So maybe these powerful countries are willing to cooperate with us in a deeper level!"
"It's just that we have just formed an alliance with the German army. I just don't know if it will affect our cooperation with them!"
Seeing that Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro did not respond, Emperor Hirohito also came to his senses and responded.
"The United States is okay. They are still providing military supplies such as oil to our empire, but I don't know how long this situation will last!"
Regarding Emperor Hirohito's response, Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro also responded immediately.
"So we must become stronger, otherwise we will always be controlled by the foreigners from these powerful countries!"
"So I leave everything to you!"
"prime minister!"
Emperor Hirohito also felt the same way and nodded in response.
"Hai!"
"I will definitely do my best to do a good job for the rise and prosperity of our empire!"
Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro agreed loudly and emotionally.
Emperor Hirohito nodded slightly and did not continue to speak. Instead, he signaled to Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro that the conversation was over and the other party could leave.
Seeing this, Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro also quickly bowed deeply to Emperor Hirohito again and then withdrew.
When Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro left the palace, he was also in a hurry. He sent embassy personnel to conduct cooperative research and development of new weapons and equipment with senior officials of various powerful countries, and negotiate for purchase intentions.
Many major powers did not respond immediately to the Japanese army's request to negotiate for the purchase of new weapons and equipment and cooperate in research and development.
Because they also need to have a meeting before they can reply.
So soon, the top leaders of various powerful countries held urgent meetings to sell new weapons and equipment and cooperate in the research and development of new weapons and equipment.
