Invincible from the sword

Chapter 513
Terauchi Shouichi thought about it for a long time.

Didn't even eat dinner.

The news that Yamamoto was killed made Siuichi very nervous.

Because this basically means that the combined fleet of the island country has lost its combat effectiveness.

With Yamamoto, even if the combined fleet of the island nation loses seven aircraft carriers, its combat effectiveness can still be fought.

Although it is impossible to take the initiative to attack, it is still possible to defend.

The Pacific defense plan formulated by Yamamoto was also agreed by his Terauchi Shouichi.

The entire plan relies on the islands in the Pacific Ocean to cooperate with the remaining warships and ground forces.

Although it is impossible to win, it is still no problem to draw a tie and hold back the Lighthouse country.

Now that Yamamoto has been killed, Terauchi Shouichi has no idea how far this defense plan can be implemented.

As for that Koga peak, it's not going to work at all.

Others don't know, but Shouyi in his temple knows it very well.

This Koga Mineichi may not look like an island nation's admiral, but his command ability is at the level of a captain.

Commanding both battleships was strenuous.

Shouyi in the temple felt that he had to shrink his troops.

He is even considering whether to step down as the commander of the Southern Expeditionary Army.

It would be the best if I could take some time off and return to the mainland of the island country to serve as the Minister of Army of the island country.

But from the current point of view, there is basically no such possibility.

Hata Shunroku is now working hard as the Minister of War of the island country.

His Terauchi Shouichi is no match for Hata Shunroku now.

And now the navy of the island country has become a mess.

The base camp of the island country will never change the Minister of War of the island country at this juncture.

If one is not careful, it may cause turmoil in the island nation's troops.

idiot.

Now what Shouichi in his temple can consider is the headquarters of the island nation's general staff.

Staff Headquarters...

Temple Shou smacked his lips.

Although the island country's staff headquarters is also good, it has not entered the island's cabinet after all.

This power is always a little bit short.

That's better than serving as the Southern Dispatch Army.

Terauchi Shouichi is not optimistic about the future of the Southern Dispatch Army.

His Southern Expedition Army controls the area in Southeast Asia.

Not a whole piece of land.

Most of the sites are islands one by one.

The largest piece is Luzon Island, the country of Filipino servants.

The rest of the place, the place is very small.

blocked by sea water.

It will be very difficult to get the troops together.

In addition, the joint fleet of the island country is now abolished.

It is almost impossible to support his southern dispatch army.

In this case, the possibility of winning the battle is very small.

There are too many warships in the lighthouse country.

Just using warships to carry out large-scale bombardment can also cripple his southern dispatch army.

As for the No.15 Japanese army, it is impossible to retreat now let alone attack.

As far as the current supply of the No.15 army is concerned, it can last up to ten days at most.

After that, I can only wait to die.

There are also two Youzhong detachments on Guadalcanal Island, and it is estimated that they will not be able to return.

Calculated in this way, there are less than 20 people left in his Southern Dispatch Army.

Almost lost half.

If things go on like this, not to mention the headquarters of the island nation's general staff, it would be nice if his Terauchi Shouichi could avoid seppuku.

However, Terauchi Shouichi planned to cheat Seishiro Sakagaki before leaving.

On the one hand, it was because this guy was at odds with his Terauchi Shouichi.

On the other hand, Seishiro Sakagaki is a member of Shunroku Hata.

If Seishiro Sakagaki had a problem in Kangaroo Country, Shunroku Hata would also be responsible.

If it works well, maybe Hata Shunroku can be pulled down from the position of minister of the island country.

Kill two birds with one stone!
Shouyi in my temple is awesome!

Temple Shouyi is very proud of his plan.

After Terauchi Shouyi reported this idea to Tojo through an encrypted telegram, Tojo was shocked.

I have a new understanding of Juichi in the temple.

What the hell!

In this temple, I am enlightened!
Tojo fully agrees with Shouichi's idea.

He also disliked Junliu Hata.

If he can take advantage of this time and replace the position of Minister of War of the island country with Terauchi Shouichi, then his power in the cabinet of Tojo will be unmatched.

Even Naotomi Hattori can't do it.

If you think about it this way, Okamura Ningji seems a bit out of date.

This Okamura is good at fighting.

But this head is a bit straight.

Tojo immediately called Hata Shunroku and asked for his opinion.

In any case, Seishiro Sakagaki is a member of Shunroku Hata.

Moreover, Hata Shunroku is now the Minister of War of the island country, and there is no way around it.

Besides, judging from the appearance, this is also a favor for Hata Junliu.

After all, the position of commander of the No.15 army is still very scarce.

As long as he has such qualifications, the next step to serve as the commander of the front army is almost a certainty.

Take a look at Okamura and Doi, they basically came up like this.

So Tojo believes that Hata Shunroku will be very grateful to him.

And so it is.

When Hata Shunroku heard Tojo's words, his brain exploded.

Almost didn't turn the corner.

For him, this is a great thing.

It is very rare to be able to win the position of an army-level commander.

And Sakagaki Seishiro, but one of his henchmen who are very capable of fighting.

If Seishiro Sakagaki serves as the commander of the No.15 Army, then Shunroku Hata will have more influence in the island country army.

Now the Kwantung Army is in his hands.

The Central China Dispatch Army is also in his hands.

With the addition of No.15 Army, basically no one in this army is his opponent.

And Terauchi Shouichi is not young now.

In the position of the Southern Dispatch Army, he can't stay for long.

At that time, he will find a way to make Sakagaki Seishiro the commander of the Southern Dispatch Army.

In this case, three of the island country's four front armies are in his hands.

by that time……

Hata Junliu thought crookedly, he is the real leader of the island country.

Don't talk about the island's cabinet, even the locust dog, they have to listen to him.

Hey hey hey.

At that time, I will also come to hold the emperor to order the princes.

Just like Cao Cao in the east.

That day was absolutely awesome!
Go to the bar first to refresh the sky, and then take a one-stop sauna bath!

It's just that Tojo suddenly made such a suggestion, wouldn't it be a big pitfall?

Hata Shunroku is not stupid either.

He and Tojo have never been on good terms.

Infighting.

Now that Tojo suddenly fed him such a big meatloaf, it would be hard to convince him if it wasn't Dakeng.

Hata Junliu frowned: "Old Dong, there are only two of us here.

Don't give me those useless things.

Let me ask you, you let Seishiro Sakagaki be the commander of the No.15 Army, are you trying to trick me again?

Although Hata Shunroku has a small head, he is not stupid. "

Tojo's performance is very good.

There was a helpless expression on his face.

"Old Hata, are you still a devil?

What is the situation in our island country now, you Minister of War, don't you have any clues?
Do you think I am willing to hand over the No.15 army to your people to command?
Isn't there no way?

Anan was called by His Majesty the Dog to be called back.

What can I do?
Now the economy of our island country has almost collapsed.

His Majesty the dog can't stand it anymore. "
