The Third Reich in Desperation

Now, there suddenly appeared a Finn who was promoted faster than Reinhardt back then, which was fine. Within 24 hours, from captain to general, looking at the entire history of war, I am afraid there will be no such bizarre thing!

On the one hand, all of the German generals are well-known, at least they are relatively easy to be spied on by foreign intelligence personnel after all.Admiral Fein appeared out of nowhere, and it might be an own goal.Switching to the rank of lieutenant general with a larger base, it seems that the problem is not so big.

In this way, Fein received his promotion order to the rank of major in the morning, and received a special promotion order to become a lieutenant general in the afternoon.

Holding a promotion order that passed through the German High Command, the Naval Command, and even the Führer himself, Fein himself didn't know what shit luck he was stepping on.

It is not uncommon to be promoted quickly during the war, but it is not uncommon to be promoted so fast, it is bizarre!

Just so confused, Fein took a platoon size that he didn't know where to make up for him, all of them knew Japanese, and the lowest rank was the "Guiding Officer Corps" of the lieutenant colonel. The so-called "senior technical expert group" came to Tokyo together.

Afterwards, the expert team stayed in Tokyo, while Finn and the officer team set off with the fleet that attacked Pearl Harbor and spent this time in the lounge of the Japanese flagship.

After all, Yamamoto 56 finally withstood the pressure, adopted the tactical advice provided by Germany, and aimed at the giant oil depot in Pearl Harbor.

Although in theory this is a big killing move, but before the actual results of such an unconventional trick, no one dares to say that it must be foolproof.

Therefore, since the tactics of the Germans were used, bringing the German lieutenant general in the officer corps could be regarded as a little more psychological comfort.

If it doesn't work, if something goes wrong, the German lieutenant general can be killed to vent the anger of the officers and soldiers.

But now that he won, the German guy who might be slaughtered has transformed into the greatest ally in the minds of the Japanese navy officers and soldiers, the foreign friend who helped the Japanese navy win this battle.

"I would like to thank the German General Fein, and I will go to the Emperor later and apply for a medal for him." At this moment, Yamamoto 56 was full of excitement about the victory at Pearl Harbor.

The Germans gave him a vital bargaining chip, allowing him to win a lot of money at the gambling table, and he will not be stingy to express his gratitude to the German side. By thanking this Lieutenant General Fein, he expressed his gratitude to the German Navy. their attitude.

Soon, Fein took two German staff officers with the rank of colonel, together with the Japanese officers who led the way, to the bridge to meet Yamamoto.

"General Yamamoto." Finn stretched out his right hand as soon as they met, and shook hands with Yamamoto 56, a Japanese naval admiral.

"General Fein." Yamamoto was taken aback after meeting him. He didn't have time to take a closer look before, but now that he had a face-to-face exchange, he realized that the German lieutenant general in front of him was actually so young.

He secretly felt that in the Japanese army, a soldier of Finn's age would probably be a captain, or at most a major.But in the German army, soldiers of this age can actually reach the general level!

Text 766 Toyotomi 56

This involuntarily reminded Yamamoto 56 of the German head of state.

At the beginning, Yamamoto actively promoted technical cooperation with Germany, and met Ribbentrop and German Navy Commander Erich Raeder for this purpose.With the direct participation of Yamamoto 56, Reinhardt personally arranged for the German company Heinkel to transfer the dive bomber technology to Japan. At that time, Reinhardt was only a young and amazing general.

But now, the Japanese Type [-] shipboard bomber, which played a major role in the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, was developed based on the technology given by Reinhardt back then.

There is also the Zero fighter as a secret weapon, which is also the most successful example of cooperation with Germany in military aviation since Yamamoto 56.

Without the aluminum alloy technology provided by Germany, the successful development of the Zero fighter would not have been possible. In exchange, Yamamoto also fully disclosed the technology of the Akagi aircraft carrier to Germany.

It's a good thing to cooperate with the Germans, and it's a good thing the Germans extended a helping hand.

Although the help of other countries gave great impetus to the Great Japanese Empire, this made Yamamoto, as a Japanese, quite melancholy.But after all, this is better than Germany giving technology and support to other countries.

"General Fein, after I return to China, I will definitely personally perform the Emperor's performance, for you and for the German allies. You are all my Yamamoto 56, and you are the best friends of my Great Japanese Empire!"

Some people say that the Yamato nation is a nation born with two faces.They are very hypocritical when they praise people, they will bow 90 degrees to people, and smile at people all day long, but once that person loses their use value to them, or they think they have the ability to conquer each other, they will not hesitate. He hesitated and stabbed the knife in the back.

Fein didn't know if the Japanese were really that hypocritical, and he didn't know if the general in front of him was sincere. Before he set off, the head of state specially summoned and explained to him, which made him have no impression of Japan at all. Not good, but now, he has to smile hypocritically at the other party.

"General Yamamoto." Fein is not used to being called a general, but he is more used to calling others a general: "About the memorial to the emperor of your country, I think that when the report of this battle reaches Tokyo, our officers Major General Nikos, who is staying in Tokyo, should submit the memorial prepared in advance through diplomatic channels, with the assistance of our master stationed in Japan, and try to let the emperor of your country see it."

Finn looked at Yamamoto 56 with a puzzled face, and recalled Reinhardt's explanation to him before departure: "General Yamamoto, the head of state has specially explained to our officer corps before that you are also a friend of our Germany. After the battle, I will also ask for credit for you."

"Please credit for me?" Yamamoto 56 was a little confused. What exactly do these members of the German officer corps want to do on this trip?

......

"I heard that in the old days of your country, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the famous general of the Warring States period, was like General Yamamoto today. He was born in a poor family, but relied on his illustrious military exploits to ascend to the general position. However, he was exterminated by the Tokugawa shogunate in your country. From then on, Toyotomi's surname has no It's a pity to be inherited by others! Although General Yamamoto of your country has great military exploits, he was born in a low-level samurai family, and his surname is low, so he is not worthy of the status of General Yamamoto. Today's big victory, my head of state personally paid attention to it, and it is not as good as you mentioned His Majesty the Emperor of Japan, bestowing the surname of Toyotomi on General Yamamoto has demonstrated His Majesty's gratitude to the warriors of the Empire."

In Tokyo, when this letter with the meaning of the German head of state was delivered to Emperor Hirohito of Japan without any hindrance, even Hirohito himself was surprised by the German head of state's understanding of Japanese culture.

Yamamoto is a samurai surname, not bad, but not too noble either.

Therefore, if Yamamoto 56 wanted to become an aristocrat, he had to confer a higher title and enter the aristocratic circle. First of all, he had to have a tall and noble surname.

Under normal circumstances, such a high honor bestowed by the emperor is almost unattainable.No matter how great Yamamoto's military exploits are, at least in Japan, no one will mention this matter.

However, it is another concept for Germans to propose the emperor's surname as foreign friends.

At least, when mentioning it as a German, there will not be so many taboos.

Especially the Toyotomi surname mentioned in this letter is even more meaningful.

If this was proposed by the Japanese, a bunch of people would have jumped out to oppose it.

After all, Toyotomi Hideyoshi is actually a typical example of coercing the emperor to order the princes. If Yamamoto 56 bestows sex on Toyotomi, this is actually a taboo and shame for the Japanese royal family!

But Hirohito also understands that the times have changed, and Yamamoto changed to Toyotomi, and it is impossible for 56 to become the second Hideyoshi.Hirohito even felt that this would instead encourage those low-level officers to work hard, and at the same time better win over the navy's loyalty to the royal family.

So a few days later, Yamamoto 56 changed his surname to Toyotomi 56 under the solemn announcement of the Japanese Emperor's edict.The surname Toyotomi, which has disappeared for hundreds of years, has once again appeared on the stage of Japanese history!

It is ironic that it was a private letter between the German head of state and the German military officer corps that created this historical event and influenced the history of Japanese surnames.

Why is it a private letter? Of course, it is because the essence of this letter must be malicious!

Reinhardt instructed Lieutenant General Fein to bring this private letter, the most fundamental purpose of which may not have been imagined by Emperor Hirohito in his dreams-that is to further divide the Japanese army!

The friendly and enthusiastic German head of state seems to have prepared a means for the Japanese emperor to motivate officers and soldiers and win over the navy, but Reinhard's actual purpose is to increase the contradiction between Japan's land and sea and the ambitions of both sides.

Although Yamamoto 56 should know that this is just a spiritual reward from the emperor.However, the people under him may not necessarily think so!

To know the meaning of "Toyotomi Surname" in Japan is really extraordinary!

Some people in the navy will think this is a hint that Yamamoto is going to be the prime minister, and some people will even directly think that this is a hint that General Yamamoto will be allowed to establish himself as a daimyo overseas!

This will undoubtedly make the Japanese navy very aggressive.

What's more, in the Japanese Navy, there may be "If General 56 takes Hawaii, the Emperor may give 56 a fief of Hawaii!"

General Toyotomi 56 has skyrocketed, and becoming the Prime Minister of Japan will not be an empty talk!

This will undoubtedly greatly stimulate the Japanese army faction. You must know that the current Japanese Prime Minister Hideki Tojo is a member of the army faction!

At that time, Hideki Tojo's thoughts about worrying about his own position and the emperor's suspicion of himself will follow one after another...

Hideki Tojo, who was in office earlier than in history, can be regarded as a supporter of the attack on Pearl Harbor. He also launched a series of fake negotiations for Yamamoto 56's attack plan, trying to deceive the US government.

Hideki Tojo was promoted to general of the army by the emperor, and he was ordered to serve as an active military officer as the prime minister to form a cabinet and also serve as the land minister.This made his position much stronger than that of the previous prime ministers. Due to the increasingly bad relations between Japan and the United States, the Japanese emperor needed a fool who tripped landmines as a signboard. He finally chose the madman Hideki Tojo, and Tojo also consciously took this step.
