Great time travel
Chapter 682, The Japanese Traitors
Chapter 42. The Rapees
Due to the unlucky encounter with the "Tenchu" assassin on the way, although he was not injured, the bulletproof car was destroyed by the bomb, which delayed the trip. Coupled with a series of troubles in dealing with the aftermath, Foreign Minister Kijuro Moshihara dawdled until noon. Only arrived at the office of the interim government.
——In the beginning, the office of the Provisional Government of Japan was naturally set up in the city hall building in Yokohama, but it was not long before it was blown into a pile of ruins by the bomber formation of the Japanese Resistance Armed Forces, with the surrounding The entire neighborhood was also turned into scorched earth.Next, because the entire cabinet team was unwilling to work in the dark air-raid shelter, the interim government simply moved to a high-end kiosk in the suburbs—anyway, since the beginning of the Fall of the Curtain Movement, the Japanese patriots have always had a romantic place to enjoy " Great health care" while talking about the tradition of state affairs.In the past, the famous Prime Minister Ito Hirobumi also lived in a brothel to handle government affairs. Now it seems to be a matter of course to move the entire government into a brothel.
Although today's Japanese archipelago is struggling in the vortex of war and destruction, in any case, it has come to the time when spring is bright and everything is in full bloom.When Kijuro Kishihara walked into this high-end kiosk requisitioned by the provisional government, he immediately felt an elegant and quiet atmosphere.
Generally speaking, this high-end pavilion requisitioned as a temporary government resident is an elegant and quiet garden-style building, covered with flowers and trees everywhere, and it is full of vitality because of the sprouting of the grass and the new branches and leaves.The clumps of low ornamental pines and cypresses look very pleasing to the eye; while the thick lying stones and the simple stone incense burner are used as a backdrop, which can be regarded as quite elegant.
What's even more amazing is that it's the time when the cherry blossoms are blooming. Although some of them had to be planed off when digging the emergency air-raid shelter, the remaining Yae cherry blossoms and Oyama cherry blossoms in the courtyard are still in full bloom.Jiaoyan's Somei Yoshino cherry, Bomo cherry and Hanfei cherry are in full bloom.Such a gorgeous and gorgeous scenery, as well as the bright red and bright purple, thick fat and light pink, and good-looking kimono maids and singers under the flowers, made Foreign Minister Kijuro Heihara, who was in a bad mood because of the assassination, suddenly relaxed and happy, and completely forgot Just one wall away, there is a human purgatory mixed with hunger, plague, poverty, hatred and death, as well as the suffering people who are sallow, emaciated, and look like evil spirits...
When he walked into a luxurious box serving as a meeting room, he opened the paper door and smelled the aroma of wine and vegetables, and then found that the cabinet members of the provisional government had already started eating.On the low back-shaped table in front of everyone, there were grilled fish, tempura, green beans, Fukujinzuke and other various foods, as well as foreign wine, pastries and canned fruits.These things may not be too rare before the war, but now they are luxurious delicacies beyond the dream of most Japanese.There is also canned beef from the U.S. Army that was boiled in a small pot, exuding a tempting aroma.
And General Mutaguchi Renya, Minister of the Army of the Provisional Government, who was already slightly drunk, was leaning on some cushions, half lying half lying on the tatami, and raised his glass to pay homage to Moshihara, "...Yo! Your Excellency Moshihara, listen Said that you met Tianzhu again in the morning? Let's have a few drinks together to suppress the shock!"
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
——Renya Mutaguchi, one of the celebrities of the Japanese Army in World War II, and the most hated general in the Japanese army by his own officers and soldiers. , but to say that this guy is neither responsible nor shameless. He is known for his showmanship and bureaucratic accent and his extreme disregard for the lives of officers and soldiers. He looks like a politician.But his show is so clumsy that it can only make people hurt.
In the history of another world, this guy commanded and launched the famous Imphal Battle in 1944, mobilizing an army of [-] to attack Imphal in northeastern India from Burma - the reason why the Imphal Battle is famous is not this The battle was so magnificent and epic, but it was because it was too funny: this Lieutenant General Mutian brought the imperial army's tradition of "no military stations" to the fullest, with outrageous strategic research and judgments, frequent command mistakes, and extreme contempt for logistics. They made jokes like "the wisdom of Genghis Khan" (eat wherever they go), which caused more imperial troops to starve to death than to die in battle.
What's even more shameful is that, at a time when the 31 troops on the front line starved to death in battle, he was in the rear headquarters in Yangon, eating beef hot pot while repairing the shrine, worshiping Amaterasu every day, and gaining weight by the way.In addition, three division heads were illegally dismissed in a record-breaking manner (division heads can only be removed by the emperor's order), forcing the 80st division to collectively resist orders, and the attacking troops lost more than [-]%, and they were called "ghost animals" by the officers and soldiers participating in the battle. Mutaguchi".
After the defeat, he still vowed to pretend to apologize by harakiri, thinking that his subordinates would persuade him, but who knew that all the subordinates wished that he would ascend to heaven as soon as possible, and none of them persuaded him to spare his life.However, Mu Tian said that after the failure of the show, he still had the cheek to pretend it was nothing, and he had no samurai demeanor at all.After the war, Ren Mutaguchi still refused to admit that Imphal's failure was his responsibility. Every time someone among his old subordinates in Myanmar died, Ren Mutaguchi would always be present at the funeral, and he had the cheek to tell everyone People printed and distributed pamphlets to explain that Imphal's failure in the battle had nothing to do with him.He refused to give up even if he was booed by the crowd, he was really stubborn.And "Mutaguchi Lianya" has become a synonym for shameless in modern Japanese.
What's even more amazing is that this "ghost animal Mutaguchi" not only had his brain flooded when he was fighting the British army, he was obsessed with the so-called "Genghis Khan" tactics stiffly, and he was still stubborn after the war. He actually changed jobs and opened a restaurant. It's called "Genghis Khan Restaurant"... The reason why modern Japanese call iron plate barbecue dishes, especially roast lamb, "Genghis Khan" is actually a "new concept" invented by this "ghost animal Mutaguchi"...
And in this time and space where warships are chaotic and history has changed, Lieutenant General Mutaguchi Renya also sent his troops to attack India from Burma and launched a Battle of Imphal, and the time was advanced from 1944 to 1943 - at that time At the same time that the Japanese Combined Fleet turned around and marched west after completely annihilating the US Pacific Fleet for the first time, aggressively invaded the Indian Ocean, and easily occupied Ceylon Island; Indian nationalist leader Chandra Bose led the Indian National Army to land in Goa Port, not only Repelled the counterattack of the British army, and successfully instigated several states in southern India to uprising one after another; the Kingdom of Iran also joined the Axis camp at this time, and sent troops to the east to conquer Baluchistan; the Indian National Congress took the opportunity to hold a meeting , passed the "Resolution Requiring Great Britain to Withdraw from India"...
In the midst of chaos, the British colonial authorities in India, besieged by enemies on all sides, made another foolish move. They actually forcibly disbanded the Congress Party, executed a group of anti-British elements, and sent Nehru and Gandhi, two famous Congress Party members, to death. The leader was arrested and imprisoned. As a result, the situation was further intensified, causing many Indian indigenous soldiers to mutiny one after another, and riots continued to erupt across the Indian subcontinent from south to north.And Nehru and Gandhi were quickly rescued by rioting soldiers, and began to turn the non-violent non-cooperation movement into armed resistance. British colonial rule in India has shown signs of collapse.
Seeing such an extremely favorable situation on the Indian battlefield, the Japanese army represented by Prime Minister Hideki Tojo was also very itchy, and wanted to compete with the imperial navy that was sweeping the Indian Ocean for some military exploits.Since the main force of the United Fleet was fighting fiercely with the British Eastern Fleet, it was unable to cover the army's landing across the Bay of Bengal, so the army could only attack India by land.As Tojo's confidant, Ren Mutaguchi, who was still a lieutenant general at the time, immediately followed suit and assembled three divisions in Mandalay, the ancient capital in central Myanmar, plus General Aung San's more than 1 Burmese volunteers. , A total of [-] troops, ready to go to the East Indies with high spirits, and go straight to Imphal, so as not to let the navy and Boss' Indian National Army focus on the front.
However, although the time has been advanced by one year, the geographical environment of the battlefield remains unchanged-Imphal is a border city in the border area between eastern India and Myanmar. barren land.From Burma to the East Indies, the mountains stretch for hundreds of kilometers, with towering peaks, some as high as 6 feet above sea level.And before crossing these high mountains, there are still two major obstacles in Myanmar, one is the Chindun River with a width of 9 meters; the other is the Mingjing Mountains at an altitude of [-] feet and a width of [-] kilometers , this area is a land of miasma with forests and few natives.There are only two or three marching roads, the shortest of which is Mandalay-Ribo-Dhamu-Imphal-Kohima-Dimapur, but even this road is mostly steep The small intestine trail starts from Mandalay and is [-] kilometers long.Moreover, this barren area is one of the areas with the highest rainfall in the world. During the monsoon period from June to September, this area will be continuously torrential rain for several days or even weeks. There was flooding, roads collapsed, and traffic was completely cut off.
Therefore, when Mutaguchi Ren also proposed the campaign concept, all the staff members of the frontline headquarters unanimously opposed it, thinking that it was impossible to maintain such an exaggerated supply line, and the army would starve to death halfway through, and even if it was not starved, the ammunition would not be able to be transported.However, Lieutenant General Mutaguchi Renya gave full play to his true nature at this time. He insisted on resisting all opinions and waved the military order of the base camp to force the generals to obey: "...without supplies, you can't fight? How can that be possible! Japan An army can endure any hardship. Food can be taken from the enemy. . . . We have discussed every detail of this operation and settled it all. Therefore, success should be obvious. . . ”
And his subordinates sarcastically said: "...the details discussed by Your Excellency Commander seem to have not taken into account the enemy's resistance. Moreover, the enemy is [-] kilometers away, and there is no one in the middle of the wilderness. We The soldiers of the army starved to death on the road before they could grab the food..."
Even so, the base camp has finally issued a combat order, even if it is an active action such as "Jade Broken Special Attack", it can only be carried out obediently.So no matter how much resentment there was in their stomachs, the three divisions on the front line still started mobilizing for battle, racking their brains to prepare ammunition and food fodder.In view of the extremely poor road conditions on the border between India and Myanmar, it is difficult to run cars, and the supplies can only rely on mules and horses. However, due to the short preparation time, the Japanese army could not gather so many mules and horses on the spot in Myanmar. When Mutaguchi Lian also complained, the commander, Lieutenant General Mutaguchi, had a flash of inspiration and proposed to imitate the ancient Mongolian army's combat methods, conscripting a large number of cattle, sheep, elephants and even monkeys (!!!) and other animals, one of which can carry military supplies The second is that when the army rations are insufficient, they can be slaughtered to satisfy the hunger, killing two birds with one stone, and even saving a lot of dry food preparations-the so-called "Genghis Khan Battle Plan".
However, these cattle, sheep, elephants, and monkeys are not as obedient as army mules and army horses. Scattered, carrying the ammunition of the Japanese army around, causing a large loss of supplies, but increased the logistical crisis of the Japanese army - after the departure, if a cow ran away, then the rations and ammunition of a Japanese army team would be gone. ...
In this way, the [-]-day Burmese coalition army marched westward into the jungle with food that was not enough for a one-way trip, and ammunition that was only half the base. At that time, the rainy season was approaching, and all the staff persuaded Ren Mutaguchi to postpone the battle until the end of the rainy season. The mountain road of [-] kilometers, and then as long as the empty guns are fired into the sky three times, the enemies of Imphal will surrender.
As a result, the rainy season of this year was earlier than expected by the staff officers. The main force of the Japanese army had just crossed the Chindun River, and the torrential rain had already poured down. For a time, the turbid waves on the Chindoon River were surging, the river surged, and the ferries and pontoon bridges were washed away. However, the three divisions of the Japanese army had been unable to retreat for more than 1 days, so they had to hold their noses and continue to move forward.On the contrary, General Aung San's more than [-] Burmese volunteers were able to return safely because they were at the end and had not yet crossed the river.
Next, the Japanese troops of these three divisions experienced a nightmare-like death march in the torrential rain-the torrential rain as if the reservoir burst from the morning to midnight, and the roads were all turned into mud. It can struggle and wriggle in the mire like a swamp.Lighting a fire and cooking has also become an impossible task. Soldiers ate canned food first, and then ate biscuits after eating the canned food. After eating the biscuits, they could only chew raw rice, or killed animals to eat raw meat. As a result, many people suffered from digestive problems. disease.And there are people getting lost or being washed away by flash floods on the road... The three division heads on the front line have repeatedly asked for airdrops of supplies from the rear, but in the rainy weather, it is difficult for Japanese planes to take off, and there are not many Japanese army in Burma airplane……
So, while eating beef hot pot in Yangon, General Mu Tiankou drafted a classic "ghost animal" telegram: Japanese have been herbivores since ancient times.Surrounded by such dense jungle, you report a lack of food?What the hell is going on!
As a result, even if there were a few sunny days occasionally, the Japanese soldiers struggling in the quagmire received very few airdrops. Instead, they were bombed more often by Allied planes... The hungry and crazy soldiers began to disregard their superiors to block them and use grenades Frying fish, shooting birds without authorization, barely survived starvation.
In the end, when the Japanese troops of these three divisions discarded most of their heavy weapons and consumed a lot of ammunition, and struggled to reach Imphal, the entire army had lost more than 1 people and had completely run out of food. Nearly half of the rest are sick... Then, these big Japanese imperial troops who have been shaped like beggars got a good news and a bad news in Imphal: the good news is that in order to mobilize troops to suppress the rebellion in Bangladesh , The British troops originally gathered in Imphal had all retreated and voluntarily abandoned this area, and the Japanese troops could enter the city without fighting.The bad news is that the British army destroyed all supplies in great detail before retreating. Even the citizens were alerted and evacuated in advance. The Japanese army did not seize any ammunition and food in the city.
what to do?Naturally, it was looted on the spot!Tens of thousands of Japanese troops began to loot houses and homes in the surrounding countryside, which immediately aroused fierce resistance-the local indigenous militia and princes and nobles got a lot of weapons when the British army withdrew, and the people who had just walked [-] kilometers of mountain roads The Japanese army didn't even have a few bullets, and they were hungry, sick and weak.After several melee battles, although the Japanese army grabbed a little rice, tens of thousands of people died.Moreover, the ammunition was almost exhausted, and several local princes and tribal leaders regarded them as robbers to encircle and suppress them, so they could not gain a foothold in the local area at all...
By the time they continued to advance to the southwest and arrived in the Bengal area of the Ganges Delta, where they joined the small group of marines dispatched by the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy, there were only more than 2 half-dead and starving people left in the three divisions. ——The entire battle did not eliminate a single British army, nor did it secure any territory, nor did it have any strategic and tactical significance.
And Renya Mutaguchi, who never left Yangon during the entire battle, was hated by all the soldiers and called a ghost, but because he was a close friend of Prime Minister Hideki Tojo, he was not punished in any way, but because of "The battle was successful" and he was promoted to the general of the army-in any case, he still captured Imphal, which can be regarded as achieving the goal of the campaign.Then, the ghost animal general was quickly incorporated into the reserve force and sent to teach at Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto: he buried three divisions at a time, and this level of tactics only needs to be taught once. If he comes a few more times, the imperial army will collapse .
However, Mutaguchi Renya, no matter which time and space it is, seems to be the same thick-skinned.Although he has been scolded as a ghost, this guy still brazenly brags about his achievements all day long, and even wants to go to the political arena... When the "Interim Government of Japan" that advocated unconditional surrender was established in Kyoto, Ren Mutaguchi He also rushed to ask for an official position immediately, and his mouth was even more plausible: "... Speaking of the Great East Asian War, that is my responsibility. I was the one who ordered the first shot at Lugou Bridge. Therefore, as the person responsible, I must Try to end this war as soon as possible..."
As for Kishigero Motohara, who presided over the provisional government, and the representatives of the chaebols, they were suffering from the lack of high-ranking generals to serve, and they couldn't grasp the military power. Seeing that Ren Mutaguchi was a general at any rate, they let this "ghost animal Mutaguchi" be the land general. After that, they fled to Yokohama together.
And this well-known "ghost animal Mutaguchi" seems to get along well with "American and British ghost animals" after taking office. Relying on the living supplies secretly hoarded by the chaebols and the logistics supplies provided by the US military, he recruited five in just a few months. The division’s American armored troops—although the Japanese in this era are generally brainwashed by militarism and the idea of respecting the emperor, their national consciousness has long been awakened, and they still consider themselves to be a superior nation. When the old and the young are about to starve to death, there is no way to force the Japanese people to continue to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic...
Since China's Eighth Route Army can transform Japanese prisoners of war into an "anti-war alliance", relying on the strong strength and abundant supplies of the US military, it can naturally pull out a vote of puppet cannon fodder. In fact, shortly after landing in Japan, there were already After forcibly conscripting Japanese to serve as laborers for the army, the generals of the U.S. military began to use canned biscuits and other daily necessities as temptations to recruit "volunteer" troops from the Japanese to supplement the U.S. military's transportation, security and logistics forces.However, they have nothing to do with the provisional government, let alone have military status, at best they are private servants hired by frontline officers.
It wasn't until the "ghost animal Mutaguchi" Lu Xiang came forward to reorganize and expand these stragglers with the support of the top US military, that they have the appearance of an army-although they are all light infantry without machine guns, although these soldiers Its combat effectiveness, organization and loyalty cannot be compared with the original Great Japanese Imperial Army, but after all, this allowed the provisional government of Yokohama to catch a little bit of guns, and it is no longer a completely empty shelf with no money, no soldiers, and no one to listen to what it says. The government has a little confidence in its heart.And the U.S. military has initially realized the goal of "Japaneseizing" the war, "using the Japanese to fight the Japanese", and reducing the bloodshed of the Americans, so everyone was happy for a while.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
In addition to Mutaguchi Renya, the "Ghost and Land Minister", the Marine Minister and Gendarmerie Commander of the Japanese Provisional Government in Yokohama is also a celebrity in the Pacific War-Lieutenant General Nagumo Chuichi!Ren Mutaguchi also provoked the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, which fired the first shot of the Greater East Asia War, while Nagumo Chuichi commanded the Japanese aircraft carrier mobile fleet to attack Pearl Harbor four years ago, fired the first shot of the Pacific War...
However, compared to the high-spirited Prime Minister Mutaguchi Renya Lu, Prime Minister Nagumo Tadaichi Kai seemed a lot more reserved, and he rarely spoke at ordinary times. At this time, he just huddled in a corner to eat and drink silently, and only slightly raised his hand to Kijuro Hashihara. Just a moment.
In fact, before joining the interim government, Nagumo Chuichi and Mutaguchi Ren were also outdated window clansmen.
——Although they cooperated closely during the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, the relationship between Chuichi Nagumo and 56 Yamamoto was actually very bad. Without the talent for aviation combat, asking him to command an aircraft carrier is simply an outsider commanding an expert.If possible, Yamamoto 56 is very reluctant to promote and reuse Nagumo Chuichi.
But the problem is that in the early days of the Pacific War, the fledgling Yamamoto 56 had to reuse Nagumo Chuichi, because the backer behind Nagumo Chuichi was the soul of the Japanese Navy at the time, Admiral Nagano Slim. 56 is not at all the commander-in-chief of the combined fleet.No matter how reluctant he is, he can only let Nagumo Chuichi command the aircraft carrier and endure Nagumo's various mistakes...
Therefore, when he had accumulated enough merit and prestige, he no longer had to be afraid of Nagano Shoushen, the veteran of the navy, Yamamoto 56 decisively kicked Nagumo Tadaichi out of the United Fleet, and was promoted to Wugang to be the commander-in-chief of the tutelary fort. Since then, it has become a family by the window.
The three words of the tutelary mansion sound mighty, and the level is really high enough. In theory, it is the same level as the commander of the United Fleet, which is equivalent to the "Grand Military Region Level". Commander-in-Chief of the Port Township, are you asking him to be a family member by the window?
Because, the so-called "Town Guard Fort" in the establishment of the Imperial Japanese Navy actually refers to a sea and land garrison area divided according to the military port and the radiation control sea area of the military port. That is, the military port and the shore facilities centered on the military port. Specifically, there are several things: military port dock facilities, Naval Air Force airport, warehouses, factories, and the marines and coastal defense forces stationed in the military port. , the minimum sea military force (some armed small boats) required to maintain the security of the naval port, etc...
If you take a closer look, you will find that there is basically no need for the commander to intervene in daily affairs such as the routine operation of the warehouse at the military port and the training of the marines. They are dispatched by the tutelary fortress, and when it comes to war, the naval command has to reorganize a new sequence to go into battle. In other words, unless the enemy hits outside the port of the tutelary fortress, the commander of the tutelary fortress will be there most of the time. According to insiders of the Japanese Navy, the characteristics of the position of commander of the tutelary fortress can be summed up as "three absolutes" - "an absolutely spacious office, an absolutely loud name, and absolutely no power whatsoever." "...It is somewhat similar to the Party History Office in modern China.
Because of this, in the system of the Imperial Japanese Navy, the position of commander-in-chief of the tutelary government has always been used to "place the old seniors" and provide a better job for those senior naval officers who have not obtained real power positions. Retirement way out.A veteran entering the tutelary mansion basically means dawdling and waiting for retirement, and is usually no longer considered to have any political future.
Therefore, after being driven to the position of Commander-in-Chief of Wugang Township Mansion, Nagumo Tadaichi, the hero of the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, was really left with the idea of dawdling and waiting for retirement. Apart from planting flowers and grass, he would sleep in flowers and sleep in willows. Except for occasionally going to the nearby Etajima Naval Academy to reminisce about my green student years, I don't even care much about the ongoing war.
Unexpectedly, when a person is sitting at home, the disaster comes from the sky. When he suddenly learned that Tokyo and the entire central government were razed to the ground by the atomic bomb, and no one above his head gave him orders, and no one would give him military pay and pensions, Nanyun Zhongyi was stunned all of a sudden, he didn't know what to do, he just watched the radio every day to inquire about news.A few days later, I heard that a provisional government of Japan had emerged in Kyoto, led by former Prime Minister Fumma Konoe. Nagumo Tadaichi didn't think much of it, so he subconsciously sent a telegram to obey the order there, and sent another He issued a notice instructing the naval fleet in Wugang to stop resisting, seal up the ships and weapons, and prepare to surrender to the U.S. military.The provisional government, which was still in Kyoto at the time, was overjoyed when it heard that Nagumo Tadaichi was willing to serve, and immediately appointed him a high position as Minister of the Navy.
Unexpectedly, although the old man Nagumo Chuichi no longer wanted to fight anymore, the young people below had completely different ideas.The order to surrender to the U.S. military immediately sparked riots and mutinies.Seeing that the situation was out of control, Nan Yunzhong didn't dare to take harsh measures to suppress it. Immediately, he ran away irresponsibly, going around in circles all the way, and finally ran to Yokohama to find the provisional government, who came to assume his post of marine minister... just compared Mutaguchi Lian, who has tens of thousands of troops under his command, is also a "ghost animal land minister", and Nagumo Zhongichi's marine minister is a completely empty title. In addition to an inland river wooden boat transport team to assist the US military in transporting supplies, there is even a slightly decent one. There are no combat ships in the country, and the small transport fleet is also directly under the orders of the US military, and basically does not belong to him.In order to let Nagumo Chuichi have something to do, the provisional government let him serve as the commander of Yokohama's gendarmerie to manage the basic security of this site.
——Foreign Minister and Acting Prime Minister Kijuro Hashihara, Agri-Minister Mutaguchi Yasuya, and Marine Minister and Gendarmerie Commander Nagumo Chuichi, the above are the "troika" that constitutes the Yokohama Provisional Government of Japan.Kijuro Moshihara was in charge of communicating with the U.S. military, Ren Mutaguchi was also in charge of forming the "puppet army", Chuichi Nanyun was in charge of the security of Yokohama, and at the same time tried to recruit members of the navy.In addition, although there are members such as the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Agriculture and Commerce, and the Minister of Finance, they are purely empty positions, because the interim government mainly relies on donations from chaebols and funding from the US military.
And on top of this interim government, whether to install another emperor and follow the monarchy, or imitate the United States and switch to a republic, and if the monarchy should be followed, who should be the emperor, has not yet been finalized. ——White House His initial opinion was naturally that he hoped to abolish the emperor system. Anyway, the emperor's family has basically turned into radiation dust now.However, the provisional government, which has insight into the internal situation of Japan, is well aware of the great role of the emperor as a spiritual totem in Japan, so it has repeatedly expressed its feelings to the US and persuaded some US military front-line generals... At present, this issue is still on hold.
In short, after sharing a sumptuous meal together, everyone was full of wine and food.The leaders of the Yokohama Provisional Government, under the auspices of Foreign Minister and Acting Prime Minister Kijuro Kijuro, started their daily work meeting—only Kijuro Kibara cleared his throat, "...cough cough, everyone, this time The first topic of the meeting was the plan to establish a 'strategic village' by concentrating the population on the Kanto Plain and the rural areas of Tokaido in order to coordinate with the Allied Forces' mopping-up operations and eliminate the red guerrillas. According to what I just received from General Patton in the morning Instructions, the program requires..."
However, Kijuro Kijuro had just begun his speech when he was interrupted by a secretary who broke in suddenly.Kijuro Kojihara looked at the note handed to him by the secretary with displeasure, and suddenly his face suddenly changed, revealing a strange expression that seemed both seriously frightened and embarrassing.
After a while, Kijuro Kishihara barely calmed down, looked up and looked around at the curious cabinet members, he could only cough dryly, and said awkwardly, "...cough cough, the latest information just received, our government's Prime Minister Konoe Fumma... has news!"
"... Oh? Is that so? Is there any news from His Majesty Konoe Fummo? This is a good thing!" Lu Xiang Mutaguchi Ren also said with a smile full of alcohol, "...Since the provisional government withdrew from Kyoto, there has been no I heard from him... Is Your Excellency Konoe alright now?"
"...He is doing very well now! In Hiroshima, he serves as the regent for the new emperor supported by the red elements! It really takes both sides!"
Kijuro Moshihara replied angrily, "...This is really following the old rules of the Heian era, who made him come from the Fujiwara family!"
All of a sudden, all the "Japanese traitors" in the venue were embarrassed, and there was a weird feeling of being messed up in the wind.
——Being the founding prime minister of white Japan and the founding regent of red Japan... and serving as the supreme leader of both sides of the civil war camp at the same time?
Even if one person plays two roles, it's not like that, right?Your Excellency Fumma Konoe, what are you going to do?
Due to the unlucky encounter with the "Tenchu" assassin on the way, although he was not injured, the bulletproof car was destroyed by the bomb, which delayed the trip. Coupled with a series of troubles in dealing with the aftermath, Foreign Minister Kijuro Moshihara dawdled until noon. Only arrived at the office of the interim government.
——In the beginning, the office of the Provisional Government of Japan was naturally set up in the city hall building in Yokohama, but it was not long before it was blown into a pile of ruins by the bomber formation of the Japanese Resistance Armed Forces, with the surrounding The entire neighborhood was also turned into scorched earth.Next, because the entire cabinet team was unwilling to work in the dark air-raid shelter, the interim government simply moved to a high-end kiosk in the suburbs—anyway, since the beginning of the Fall of the Curtain Movement, the Japanese patriots have always had a romantic place to enjoy " Great health care" while talking about the tradition of state affairs.In the past, the famous Prime Minister Ito Hirobumi also lived in a brothel to handle government affairs. Now it seems to be a matter of course to move the entire government into a brothel.
Although today's Japanese archipelago is struggling in the vortex of war and destruction, in any case, it has come to the time when spring is bright and everything is in full bloom.When Kijuro Kishihara walked into this high-end kiosk requisitioned by the provisional government, he immediately felt an elegant and quiet atmosphere.
Generally speaking, this high-end pavilion requisitioned as a temporary government resident is an elegant and quiet garden-style building, covered with flowers and trees everywhere, and it is full of vitality because of the sprouting of the grass and the new branches and leaves.The clumps of low ornamental pines and cypresses look very pleasing to the eye; while the thick lying stones and the simple stone incense burner are used as a backdrop, which can be regarded as quite elegant.
What's even more amazing is that it's the time when the cherry blossoms are blooming. Although some of them had to be planed off when digging the emergency air-raid shelter, the remaining Yae cherry blossoms and Oyama cherry blossoms in the courtyard are still in full bloom.Jiaoyan's Somei Yoshino cherry, Bomo cherry and Hanfei cherry are in full bloom.Such a gorgeous and gorgeous scenery, as well as the bright red and bright purple, thick fat and light pink, and good-looking kimono maids and singers under the flowers, made Foreign Minister Kijuro Heihara, who was in a bad mood because of the assassination, suddenly relaxed and happy, and completely forgot Just one wall away, there is a human purgatory mixed with hunger, plague, poverty, hatred and death, as well as the suffering people who are sallow, emaciated, and look like evil spirits...
When he walked into a luxurious box serving as a meeting room, he opened the paper door and smelled the aroma of wine and vegetables, and then found that the cabinet members of the provisional government had already started eating.On the low back-shaped table in front of everyone, there were grilled fish, tempura, green beans, Fukujinzuke and other various foods, as well as foreign wine, pastries and canned fruits.These things may not be too rare before the war, but now they are luxurious delicacies beyond the dream of most Japanese.There is also canned beef from the U.S. Army that was boiled in a small pot, exuding a tempting aroma.
And General Mutaguchi Renya, Minister of the Army of the Provisional Government, who was already slightly drunk, was leaning on some cushions, half lying half lying on the tatami, and raised his glass to pay homage to Moshihara, "...Yo! Your Excellency Moshihara, listen Said that you met Tianzhu again in the morning? Let's have a few drinks together to suppress the shock!"
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
——Renya Mutaguchi, one of the celebrities of the Japanese Army in World War II, and the most hated general in the Japanese army by his own officers and soldiers. , but to say that this guy is neither responsible nor shameless. He is known for his showmanship and bureaucratic accent and his extreme disregard for the lives of officers and soldiers. He looks like a politician.But his show is so clumsy that it can only make people hurt.
In the history of another world, this guy commanded and launched the famous Imphal Battle in 1944, mobilizing an army of [-] to attack Imphal in northeastern India from Burma - the reason why the Imphal Battle is famous is not this The battle was so magnificent and epic, but it was because it was too funny: this Lieutenant General Mutian brought the imperial army's tradition of "no military stations" to the fullest, with outrageous strategic research and judgments, frequent command mistakes, and extreme contempt for logistics. They made jokes like "the wisdom of Genghis Khan" (eat wherever they go), which caused more imperial troops to starve to death than to die in battle.
What's even more shameful is that, at a time when the 31 troops on the front line starved to death in battle, he was in the rear headquarters in Yangon, eating beef hot pot while repairing the shrine, worshiping Amaterasu every day, and gaining weight by the way.In addition, three division heads were illegally dismissed in a record-breaking manner (division heads can only be removed by the emperor's order), forcing the 80st division to collectively resist orders, and the attacking troops lost more than [-]%, and they were called "ghost animals" by the officers and soldiers participating in the battle. Mutaguchi".
After the defeat, he still vowed to pretend to apologize by harakiri, thinking that his subordinates would persuade him, but who knew that all the subordinates wished that he would ascend to heaven as soon as possible, and none of them persuaded him to spare his life.However, Mu Tian said that after the failure of the show, he still had the cheek to pretend it was nothing, and he had no samurai demeanor at all.After the war, Ren Mutaguchi still refused to admit that Imphal's failure was his responsibility. Every time someone among his old subordinates in Myanmar died, Ren Mutaguchi would always be present at the funeral, and he had the cheek to tell everyone People printed and distributed pamphlets to explain that Imphal's failure in the battle had nothing to do with him.He refused to give up even if he was booed by the crowd, he was really stubborn.And "Mutaguchi Lianya" has become a synonym for shameless in modern Japanese.
What's even more amazing is that this "ghost animal Mutaguchi" not only had his brain flooded when he was fighting the British army, he was obsessed with the so-called "Genghis Khan" tactics stiffly, and he was still stubborn after the war. He actually changed jobs and opened a restaurant. It's called "Genghis Khan Restaurant"... The reason why modern Japanese call iron plate barbecue dishes, especially roast lamb, "Genghis Khan" is actually a "new concept" invented by this "ghost animal Mutaguchi"...
And in this time and space where warships are chaotic and history has changed, Lieutenant General Mutaguchi Renya also sent his troops to attack India from Burma and launched a Battle of Imphal, and the time was advanced from 1944 to 1943 - at that time At the same time that the Japanese Combined Fleet turned around and marched west after completely annihilating the US Pacific Fleet for the first time, aggressively invaded the Indian Ocean, and easily occupied Ceylon Island; Indian nationalist leader Chandra Bose led the Indian National Army to land in Goa Port, not only Repelled the counterattack of the British army, and successfully instigated several states in southern India to uprising one after another; the Kingdom of Iran also joined the Axis camp at this time, and sent troops to the east to conquer Baluchistan; the Indian National Congress took the opportunity to hold a meeting , passed the "Resolution Requiring Great Britain to Withdraw from India"...
In the midst of chaos, the British colonial authorities in India, besieged by enemies on all sides, made another foolish move. They actually forcibly disbanded the Congress Party, executed a group of anti-British elements, and sent Nehru and Gandhi, two famous Congress Party members, to death. The leader was arrested and imprisoned. As a result, the situation was further intensified, causing many Indian indigenous soldiers to mutiny one after another, and riots continued to erupt across the Indian subcontinent from south to north.And Nehru and Gandhi were quickly rescued by rioting soldiers, and began to turn the non-violent non-cooperation movement into armed resistance. British colonial rule in India has shown signs of collapse.
Seeing such an extremely favorable situation on the Indian battlefield, the Japanese army represented by Prime Minister Hideki Tojo was also very itchy, and wanted to compete with the imperial navy that was sweeping the Indian Ocean for some military exploits.Since the main force of the United Fleet was fighting fiercely with the British Eastern Fleet, it was unable to cover the army's landing across the Bay of Bengal, so the army could only attack India by land.As Tojo's confidant, Ren Mutaguchi, who was still a lieutenant general at the time, immediately followed suit and assembled three divisions in Mandalay, the ancient capital in central Myanmar, plus General Aung San's more than 1 Burmese volunteers. , A total of [-] troops, ready to go to the East Indies with high spirits, and go straight to Imphal, so as not to let the navy and Boss' Indian National Army focus on the front.
However, although the time has been advanced by one year, the geographical environment of the battlefield remains unchanged-Imphal is a border city in the border area between eastern India and Myanmar. barren land.From Burma to the East Indies, the mountains stretch for hundreds of kilometers, with towering peaks, some as high as 6 feet above sea level.And before crossing these high mountains, there are still two major obstacles in Myanmar, one is the Chindun River with a width of 9 meters; the other is the Mingjing Mountains at an altitude of [-] feet and a width of [-] kilometers , this area is a land of miasma with forests and few natives.There are only two or three marching roads, the shortest of which is Mandalay-Ribo-Dhamu-Imphal-Kohima-Dimapur, but even this road is mostly steep The small intestine trail starts from Mandalay and is [-] kilometers long.Moreover, this barren area is one of the areas with the highest rainfall in the world. During the monsoon period from June to September, this area will be continuously torrential rain for several days or even weeks. There was flooding, roads collapsed, and traffic was completely cut off.
Therefore, when Mutaguchi Ren also proposed the campaign concept, all the staff members of the frontline headquarters unanimously opposed it, thinking that it was impossible to maintain such an exaggerated supply line, and the army would starve to death halfway through, and even if it was not starved, the ammunition would not be able to be transported.However, Lieutenant General Mutaguchi Renya gave full play to his true nature at this time. He insisted on resisting all opinions and waved the military order of the base camp to force the generals to obey: "...without supplies, you can't fight? How can that be possible! Japan An army can endure any hardship. Food can be taken from the enemy. . . . We have discussed every detail of this operation and settled it all. Therefore, success should be obvious. . . ”
And his subordinates sarcastically said: "...the details discussed by Your Excellency Commander seem to have not taken into account the enemy's resistance. Moreover, the enemy is [-] kilometers away, and there is no one in the middle of the wilderness. We The soldiers of the army starved to death on the road before they could grab the food..."
Even so, the base camp has finally issued a combat order, even if it is an active action such as "Jade Broken Special Attack", it can only be carried out obediently.So no matter how much resentment there was in their stomachs, the three divisions on the front line still started mobilizing for battle, racking their brains to prepare ammunition and food fodder.In view of the extremely poor road conditions on the border between India and Myanmar, it is difficult to run cars, and the supplies can only rely on mules and horses. However, due to the short preparation time, the Japanese army could not gather so many mules and horses on the spot in Myanmar. When Mutaguchi Lian also complained, the commander, Lieutenant General Mutaguchi, had a flash of inspiration and proposed to imitate the ancient Mongolian army's combat methods, conscripting a large number of cattle, sheep, elephants and even monkeys (!!!) and other animals, one of which can carry military supplies The second is that when the army rations are insufficient, they can be slaughtered to satisfy the hunger, killing two birds with one stone, and even saving a lot of dry food preparations-the so-called "Genghis Khan Battle Plan".
However, these cattle, sheep, elephants, and monkeys are not as obedient as army mules and army horses. Scattered, carrying the ammunition of the Japanese army around, causing a large loss of supplies, but increased the logistical crisis of the Japanese army - after the departure, if a cow ran away, then the rations and ammunition of a Japanese army team would be gone. ...
In this way, the [-]-day Burmese coalition army marched westward into the jungle with food that was not enough for a one-way trip, and ammunition that was only half the base. At that time, the rainy season was approaching, and all the staff persuaded Ren Mutaguchi to postpone the battle until the end of the rainy season. The mountain road of [-] kilometers, and then as long as the empty guns are fired into the sky three times, the enemies of Imphal will surrender.
As a result, the rainy season of this year was earlier than expected by the staff officers. The main force of the Japanese army had just crossed the Chindun River, and the torrential rain had already poured down. For a time, the turbid waves on the Chindoon River were surging, the river surged, and the ferries and pontoon bridges were washed away. However, the three divisions of the Japanese army had been unable to retreat for more than 1 days, so they had to hold their noses and continue to move forward.On the contrary, General Aung San's more than [-] Burmese volunteers were able to return safely because they were at the end and had not yet crossed the river.
Next, the Japanese troops of these three divisions experienced a nightmare-like death march in the torrential rain-the torrential rain as if the reservoir burst from the morning to midnight, and the roads were all turned into mud. It can struggle and wriggle in the mire like a swamp.Lighting a fire and cooking has also become an impossible task. Soldiers ate canned food first, and then ate biscuits after eating the canned food. After eating the biscuits, they could only chew raw rice, or killed animals to eat raw meat. As a result, many people suffered from digestive problems. disease.And there are people getting lost or being washed away by flash floods on the road... The three division heads on the front line have repeatedly asked for airdrops of supplies from the rear, but in the rainy weather, it is difficult for Japanese planes to take off, and there are not many Japanese army in Burma airplane……
So, while eating beef hot pot in Yangon, General Mu Tiankou drafted a classic "ghost animal" telegram: Japanese have been herbivores since ancient times.Surrounded by such dense jungle, you report a lack of food?What the hell is going on!
As a result, even if there were a few sunny days occasionally, the Japanese soldiers struggling in the quagmire received very few airdrops. Instead, they were bombed more often by Allied planes... The hungry and crazy soldiers began to disregard their superiors to block them and use grenades Frying fish, shooting birds without authorization, barely survived starvation.
In the end, when the Japanese troops of these three divisions discarded most of their heavy weapons and consumed a lot of ammunition, and struggled to reach Imphal, the entire army had lost more than 1 people and had completely run out of food. Nearly half of the rest are sick... Then, these big Japanese imperial troops who have been shaped like beggars got a good news and a bad news in Imphal: the good news is that in order to mobilize troops to suppress the rebellion in Bangladesh , The British troops originally gathered in Imphal had all retreated and voluntarily abandoned this area, and the Japanese troops could enter the city without fighting.The bad news is that the British army destroyed all supplies in great detail before retreating. Even the citizens were alerted and evacuated in advance. The Japanese army did not seize any ammunition and food in the city.
what to do?Naturally, it was looted on the spot!Tens of thousands of Japanese troops began to loot houses and homes in the surrounding countryside, which immediately aroused fierce resistance-the local indigenous militia and princes and nobles got a lot of weapons when the British army withdrew, and the people who had just walked [-] kilometers of mountain roads The Japanese army didn't even have a few bullets, and they were hungry, sick and weak.After several melee battles, although the Japanese army grabbed a little rice, tens of thousands of people died.Moreover, the ammunition was almost exhausted, and several local princes and tribal leaders regarded them as robbers to encircle and suppress them, so they could not gain a foothold in the local area at all...
By the time they continued to advance to the southwest and arrived in the Bengal area of the Ganges Delta, where they joined the small group of marines dispatched by the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy, there were only more than 2 half-dead and starving people left in the three divisions. ——The entire battle did not eliminate a single British army, nor did it secure any territory, nor did it have any strategic and tactical significance.
And Renya Mutaguchi, who never left Yangon during the entire battle, was hated by all the soldiers and called a ghost, but because he was a close friend of Prime Minister Hideki Tojo, he was not punished in any way, but because of "The battle was successful" and he was promoted to the general of the army-in any case, he still captured Imphal, which can be regarded as achieving the goal of the campaign.Then, the ghost animal general was quickly incorporated into the reserve force and sent to teach at Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto: he buried three divisions at a time, and this level of tactics only needs to be taught once. If he comes a few more times, the imperial army will collapse .
However, Mutaguchi Renya, no matter which time and space it is, seems to be the same thick-skinned.Although he has been scolded as a ghost, this guy still brazenly brags about his achievements all day long, and even wants to go to the political arena... When the "Interim Government of Japan" that advocated unconditional surrender was established in Kyoto, Ren Mutaguchi He also rushed to ask for an official position immediately, and his mouth was even more plausible: "... Speaking of the Great East Asian War, that is my responsibility. I was the one who ordered the first shot at Lugou Bridge. Therefore, as the person responsible, I must Try to end this war as soon as possible..."
As for Kishigero Motohara, who presided over the provisional government, and the representatives of the chaebols, they were suffering from the lack of high-ranking generals to serve, and they couldn't grasp the military power. Seeing that Ren Mutaguchi was a general at any rate, they let this "ghost animal Mutaguchi" be the land general. After that, they fled to Yokohama together.
And this well-known "ghost animal Mutaguchi" seems to get along well with "American and British ghost animals" after taking office. Relying on the living supplies secretly hoarded by the chaebols and the logistics supplies provided by the US military, he recruited five in just a few months. The division’s American armored troops—although the Japanese in this era are generally brainwashed by militarism and the idea of respecting the emperor, their national consciousness has long been awakened, and they still consider themselves to be a superior nation. When the old and the young are about to starve to death, there is no way to force the Japanese people to continue to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic...
Since China's Eighth Route Army can transform Japanese prisoners of war into an "anti-war alliance", relying on the strong strength and abundant supplies of the US military, it can naturally pull out a vote of puppet cannon fodder. In fact, shortly after landing in Japan, there were already After forcibly conscripting Japanese to serve as laborers for the army, the generals of the U.S. military began to use canned biscuits and other daily necessities as temptations to recruit "volunteer" troops from the Japanese to supplement the U.S. military's transportation, security and logistics forces.However, they have nothing to do with the provisional government, let alone have military status, at best they are private servants hired by frontline officers.
It wasn't until the "ghost animal Mutaguchi" Lu Xiang came forward to reorganize and expand these stragglers with the support of the top US military, that they have the appearance of an army-although they are all light infantry without machine guns, although these soldiers Its combat effectiveness, organization and loyalty cannot be compared with the original Great Japanese Imperial Army, but after all, this allowed the provisional government of Yokohama to catch a little bit of guns, and it is no longer a completely empty shelf with no money, no soldiers, and no one to listen to what it says. The government has a little confidence in its heart.And the U.S. military has initially realized the goal of "Japaneseizing" the war, "using the Japanese to fight the Japanese", and reducing the bloodshed of the Americans, so everyone was happy for a while.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
In addition to Mutaguchi Renya, the "Ghost and Land Minister", the Marine Minister and Gendarmerie Commander of the Japanese Provisional Government in Yokohama is also a celebrity in the Pacific War-Lieutenant General Nagumo Chuichi!Ren Mutaguchi also provoked the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, which fired the first shot of the Greater East Asia War, while Nagumo Chuichi commanded the Japanese aircraft carrier mobile fleet to attack Pearl Harbor four years ago, fired the first shot of the Pacific War...
However, compared to the high-spirited Prime Minister Mutaguchi Renya Lu, Prime Minister Nagumo Tadaichi Kai seemed a lot more reserved, and he rarely spoke at ordinary times. At this time, he just huddled in a corner to eat and drink silently, and only slightly raised his hand to Kijuro Hashihara. Just a moment.
In fact, before joining the interim government, Nagumo Chuichi and Mutaguchi Ren were also outdated window clansmen.
——Although they cooperated closely during the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, the relationship between Chuichi Nagumo and 56 Yamamoto was actually very bad. Without the talent for aviation combat, asking him to command an aircraft carrier is simply an outsider commanding an expert.If possible, Yamamoto 56 is very reluctant to promote and reuse Nagumo Chuichi.
But the problem is that in the early days of the Pacific War, the fledgling Yamamoto 56 had to reuse Nagumo Chuichi, because the backer behind Nagumo Chuichi was the soul of the Japanese Navy at the time, Admiral Nagano Slim. 56 is not at all the commander-in-chief of the combined fleet.No matter how reluctant he is, he can only let Nagumo Chuichi command the aircraft carrier and endure Nagumo's various mistakes...
Therefore, when he had accumulated enough merit and prestige, he no longer had to be afraid of Nagano Shoushen, the veteran of the navy, Yamamoto 56 decisively kicked Nagumo Tadaichi out of the United Fleet, and was promoted to Wugang to be the commander-in-chief of the tutelary fort. Since then, it has become a family by the window.
The three words of the tutelary mansion sound mighty, and the level is really high enough. In theory, it is the same level as the commander of the United Fleet, which is equivalent to the "Grand Military Region Level". Commander-in-Chief of the Port Township, are you asking him to be a family member by the window?
Because, the so-called "Town Guard Fort" in the establishment of the Imperial Japanese Navy actually refers to a sea and land garrison area divided according to the military port and the radiation control sea area of the military port. That is, the military port and the shore facilities centered on the military port. Specifically, there are several things: military port dock facilities, Naval Air Force airport, warehouses, factories, and the marines and coastal defense forces stationed in the military port. , the minimum sea military force (some armed small boats) required to maintain the security of the naval port, etc...
If you take a closer look, you will find that there is basically no need for the commander to intervene in daily affairs such as the routine operation of the warehouse at the military port and the training of the marines. They are dispatched by the tutelary fortress, and when it comes to war, the naval command has to reorganize a new sequence to go into battle. In other words, unless the enemy hits outside the port of the tutelary fortress, the commander of the tutelary fortress will be there most of the time. According to insiders of the Japanese Navy, the characteristics of the position of commander of the tutelary fortress can be summed up as "three absolutes" - "an absolutely spacious office, an absolutely loud name, and absolutely no power whatsoever." "...It is somewhat similar to the Party History Office in modern China.
Because of this, in the system of the Imperial Japanese Navy, the position of commander-in-chief of the tutelary government has always been used to "place the old seniors" and provide a better job for those senior naval officers who have not obtained real power positions. Retirement way out.A veteran entering the tutelary mansion basically means dawdling and waiting for retirement, and is usually no longer considered to have any political future.
Therefore, after being driven to the position of Commander-in-Chief of Wugang Township Mansion, Nagumo Tadaichi, the hero of the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, was really left with the idea of dawdling and waiting for retirement. Apart from planting flowers and grass, he would sleep in flowers and sleep in willows. Except for occasionally going to the nearby Etajima Naval Academy to reminisce about my green student years, I don't even care much about the ongoing war.
Unexpectedly, when a person is sitting at home, the disaster comes from the sky. When he suddenly learned that Tokyo and the entire central government were razed to the ground by the atomic bomb, and no one above his head gave him orders, and no one would give him military pay and pensions, Nanyun Zhongyi was stunned all of a sudden, he didn't know what to do, he just watched the radio every day to inquire about news.A few days later, I heard that a provisional government of Japan had emerged in Kyoto, led by former Prime Minister Fumma Konoe. Nagumo Tadaichi didn't think much of it, so he subconsciously sent a telegram to obey the order there, and sent another He issued a notice instructing the naval fleet in Wugang to stop resisting, seal up the ships and weapons, and prepare to surrender to the U.S. military.The provisional government, which was still in Kyoto at the time, was overjoyed when it heard that Nagumo Tadaichi was willing to serve, and immediately appointed him a high position as Minister of the Navy.
Unexpectedly, although the old man Nagumo Chuichi no longer wanted to fight anymore, the young people below had completely different ideas.The order to surrender to the U.S. military immediately sparked riots and mutinies.Seeing that the situation was out of control, Nan Yunzhong didn't dare to take harsh measures to suppress it. Immediately, he ran away irresponsibly, going around in circles all the way, and finally ran to Yokohama to find the provisional government, who came to assume his post of marine minister... just compared Mutaguchi Lian, who has tens of thousands of troops under his command, is also a "ghost animal land minister", and Nagumo Zhongichi's marine minister is a completely empty title. In addition to an inland river wooden boat transport team to assist the US military in transporting supplies, there is even a slightly decent one. There are no combat ships in the country, and the small transport fleet is also directly under the orders of the US military, and basically does not belong to him.In order to let Nagumo Chuichi have something to do, the provisional government let him serve as the commander of Yokohama's gendarmerie to manage the basic security of this site.
——Foreign Minister and Acting Prime Minister Kijuro Hashihara, Agri-Minister Mutaguchi Yasuya, and Marine Minister and Gendarmerie Commander Nagumo Chuichi, the above are the "troika" that constitutes the Yokohama Provisional Government of Japan.Kijuro Moshihara was in charge of communicating with the U.S. military, Ren Mutaguchi was also in charge of forming the "puppet army", Chuichi Nanyun was in charge of the security of Yokohama, and at the same time tried to recruit members of the navy.In addition, although there are members such as the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Agriculture and Commerce, and the Minister of Finance, they are purely empty positions, because the interim government mainly relies on donations from chaebols and funding from the US military.
And on top of this interim government, whether to install another emperor and follow the monarchy, or imitate the United States and switch to a republic, and if the monarchy should be followed, who should be the emperor, has not yet been finalized. ——White House His initial opinion was naturally that he hoped to abolish the emperor system. Anyway, the emperor's family has basically turned into radiation dust now.However, the provisional government, which has insight into the internal situation of Japan, is well aware of the great role of the emperor as a spiritual totem in Japan, so it has repeatedly expressed its feelings to the US and persuaded some US military front-line generals... At present, this issue is still on hold.
In short, after sharing a sumptuous meal together, everyone was full of wine and food.The leaders of the Yokohama Provisional Government, under the auspices of Foreign Minister and Acting Prime Minister Kijuro Kijuro, started their daily work meeting—only Kijuro Kibara cleared his throat, "...cough cough, everyone, this time The first topic of the meeting was the plan to establish a 'strategic village' by concentrating the population on the Kanto Plain and the rural areas of Tokaido in order to coordinate with the Allied Forces' mopping-up operations and eliminate the red guerrillas. According to what I just received from General Patton in the morning Instructions, the program requires..."
However, Kijuro Kijuro had just begun his speech when he was interrupted by a secretary who broke in suddenly.Kijuro Kojihara looked at the note handed to him by the secretary with displeasure, and suddenly his face suddenly changed, revealing a strange expression that seemed both seriously frightened and embarrassing.
After a while, Kijuro Kishihara barely calmed down, looked up and looked around at the curious cabinet members, he could only cough dryly, and said awkwardly, "...cough cough, the latest information just received, our government's Prime Minister Konoe Fumma... has news!"
"... Oh? Is that so? Is there any news from His Majesty Konoe Fummo? This is a good thing!" Lu Xiang Mutaguchi Ren also said with a smile full of alcohol, "...Since the provisional government withdrew from Kyoto, there has been no I heard from him... Is Your Excellency Konoe alright now?"
"...He is doing very well now! In Hiroshima, he serves as the regent for the new emperor supported by the red elements! It really takes both sides!"
Kijuro Moshihara replied angrily, "...This is really following the old rules of the Heian era, who made him come from the Fujiwara family!"
All of a sudden, all the "Japanese traitors" in the venue were embarrassed, and there was a weird feeling of being messed up in the wind.
——Being the founding prime minister of white Japan and the founding regent of red Japan... and serving as the supreme leader of both sides of the civil war camp at the same time?
Even if one person plays two roles, it's not like that, right?Your Excellency Fumma Konoe, what are you going to do?
