September 24th, Klute Atoll. Yamamoto Isoroku's combined fleet was stationed here. On this day, an army officer with a low rank but great influence came here to ask for a meeting with the commander of the combined fleet, Yamamoto Isoroku.

.This forty-year-old officer wearing a pair of round glasses is the most famous troublemaker in the General Staff Headquarters-Tsuji Masanobu. Speaking of this buddy, he is definitely a masterpiece. Later, someone on the Internet discussed a story from the Second World War.

The saddest combination is: the general from Perfume (France, most famous for its perfume) plus the staff officer from Nicho (the transliteration of Japanese) plus the soldiers from Macaroni (no need to explain this, Italy) plus the principal (

Chairman of the Generalissimo) counterintelligence.

Needless to say about the perfume generals, the world's number one army can be finished under their command in a few weeks. This is exactly what "if you are not afraid of enemies who are like gods, be afraid of teammates who are like pigs; if you are not afraid of teammates who are like pigs, be afraid of pigs"

Same captain." Therefore, ranking first among the most miserable groups is well deserved.

The soldiers of Macaroni have always loved peace. It is said that in North Africa, a small number of British tanks once charged towards the Italian anti-tank gun position. At the beginning, the Italians fired back. After just two minutes of firing, the Italians suddenly stopped resisting.

, raised the white flag. When the British asked the reason, the Italians said confidently: "Because our ammunition box did not have a crowbar to open it, we were forced to surrender."

The principal's counter-espionage. If you look at all the recent super popular spy movies, the principal has never taken advantage of him. When working with the Japanese, even under the eyes of the counter-intelligence agency, the vice president was successfully instigated to rebel and even managed to abscond.

.No wonder the principal's intelligence agencies all have the word "tong", they are indeed very similar to some kind of "bucket".

As for Nichou's staff, they are not a fuel-efficient lamp. The junior staff officers of the Japanese army are a group of particularly crazy people. They dare to do anything in order to wear general epaulettes early in the day. There is no "

"Fear the disdain of the world". What they are best at is not assisting the general in formulating detailed battle plans, but deciding the tasks of superiors based on their own hobbies. The boss of this group of brothers is called Ishihara Wanji, and he is a damn dead man.

Eunuch (this guy likes to hang an ancestral super-long samurai sword everywhere to show off. Once when he went out to ride a horse, when he dismounted, he jumped off the horse just to show off. As a result, tragedy happened: the super-long samurai sword

One end of the samurai sword was on the ground, and the other end, the handle, was pressed against Ishihara's little vagina. As a result, it really hurt - the egg was broken. Later, this guy had no descendants). That guy has been around since he was a child.

A factor that affects stability and unity. It is said that when this guy was in the third grade of middle school, during an art class sketching, this guy submitted a very realistic work: a very cute little penis, and a line of words on the side:

"My baby, painted in the toilet, October 1st." (You will be punished if you make fun of your own baby!) The most awesome thing about this guy is that he started the 9.18 incident. At that time, these guys didn't cooperate at all.

After discussing with the commander of the Kwantung Army, he decided to take action. (Actually, the commander of the Kwantung Army also knew about it, but for some reason he pretended not to know.) But these buddies, Lieutenant Colonel Ishihara Wanji,

Colonel Seishiro Itagaki, Major Hanatani Masaru and Major Shintaro Imada - they didn't pay much attention to confidentiality, so the General Staff Headquarters knew about it. So the General Staff Headquarters sent a deputy chief of operations, Miji Takekawa, to Fengtian to stop Seki (that one)

) The Eastern Army made a mess, but as soon as they arrived at the Eastern Army, Major Zora Hanaya went to drink, and was knocked down. When he woke up from the wine, 918 had already finished. Xiaoliuzi's Northeastern Army had already

They were all disarmed, and Ishihara and the others were busy counting the trophies. No, they should be said to be captured items, not trophies. There was no battle at all.

Ishihara Kanji was promoted to the rank of colonel immediately after the incident, and was promoted to the chief of the War Guidance Section of the General Staff Headquarters. Later, he also served as the core section chief of the General Staff Headquarters - Chief of the Operations Section of the First Department (Operations Department). In 1937, he was promoted to the First Department of the General Staff Headquarters.

Minister. Because of the success of the "Manchuria Incident", Ishihara Wanji and Itagaki Seishiro became heroes throughout Japan.

With this precedent of taking shortcuts for promotion, the trend later became bad. In order to get promoted, everyone rushed in, and all kinds of "incidents" popped up like dog urine after the rain. Among these people is now

Staff officer Tsuji Masanobu came to Klute.

This staff officer Tsuji Masanobu also had a lot of criminal records. In 1937, he was appointed as the staff officer of the Northern China Front. After a small test, the "July 7th Incident" happened. In 1939, when he was appointed as the major combat staff officer of the Eastern Army, he simply pretended to be the commander of the Eastern Army.

The commander of the Eastern Army, General Kenkichi Ueda, drafted and issued an "Outline for Handling the Manchurian-Soviet Border" in the name of General Kenkichi Ueda, the commander of the Eastern Army, openly encouraging frontline troops to provoke the Soviet army, which resulted in the "Nomonkan Incident". The Japanese army was attacked by Zhukov's mechanized troops at Nomonkan.

After a fat beating, he lost his troops and generals. As a result, the commander of the Sekitō Army, Kenkichi Ueda, was dismissed because the Japanese army suffered an unprecedented defeat. As for the staff of Tsuji Masanobu, well, it was not easy to get along with the Sekitō Army.

, as a result, he changed his position as an official in another place and continued to be a disaster in Taiwan.

In July 1942, the General Staff Headquarters accidentally released this guy again and went to the 17th Army Headquarters for investigation. This time, the sea was as wide as a fish could leap, and the sky was as high as a bird could fly. On July 15th, Tsuji

After arriving in Davao, Philippines, where the headquarters of the 17th Army is located, Masanobu immediately instructed the 17th Army: "Use both land and sea to attack Port Moresby immediately. This is the 'big order'". The so-called "big order" means "imperial edict". This guy

Progress was made again, this time even the emperor's name was used.

Of course, the 17th Army felt strange. When did the Emperor directly command the Imperial Army? But this was an order from His Majesty the Emperor conveyed by the Operation Squad Leader of the General Staff Headquarters. Who dared to object? Not afraid of "Tenchu ​​national traitors"? So on July 18th, Hyakutake Haruyoshi issued the order.

According to the army's combat order, on July 21, the survey detachment crossed the Owen Stanley Mountain and began combat operations. Even the headquarters of the 17th Army simply moved from Davao to Rabaul.

Who knew that on July 25, Colonel Hattori Takushiro, the commander of the operations section of the base camp, came angrily and asked if the investigation results of the 17th Army had come out. Only then did everyone know that this was Tsuji Masanobu talking nonsense again, and everyone from the central yang to the other place was dumbfounded.

.

Lieutenant Colonel Shingo Takayama, the commander of the combat effectiveness section, asked Hattori: "What should I do? Should I engage in military law?"

But you have to admit that sometimes the trouble lies in having good character. Hattori thought for a long time before saying: "This has something to do with the face of the base camp. If word spreads, it will make people doubt the command structure of the base camp. Besides, the battle has already begun. Tsuji-kun will not be punished."

It’s useless. We should all work hard to achieve success in the battle. Let’s call Tsuji-kun back first.” That means “let’s forget the past.”

Later, the Army suffered a loss on Guadalcanal. If you suffer a loss, you will suffer a loss. If you admit it, you will get it. As the saying goes: How can you not avoid being stabbed in the rivers and lakes? It is also said: Those who come out to fool around will have to pay back sooner or later. But.

The Imperial Army of Japan has really never suffered any losses. When it suffers a sudden loss, the first reaction is not to quickly sell out the junk stock Guadalcanal to clear its positions and stop losses, but in the spirit of "Wherever you fall, start from there."

The belief of "Where can we get up again" continued to grow, and troops were sent to Guadalcanal one after another. As a result, unfortunately, they were trapped again.

Obviously, without heavy weapons, no matter how many people go up, the airport cannot be conquered. But if the airport is not solved, not to mention heavy weapons, even ammunition and food cannot be delivered. The more people go up, the more people will starve to death.

There are more and faster. So a logical circle comparable to that of a chicken laying an egg or an egg laying a chicken appears. The Army is confused in this circle, and it can't get out of it no matter how hard it is. After thinking about it, it can only condescend.

Went to the Navy for help.

But trouble arises when it comes to who to send to the Navy for help. Just as the Navy has always looked down on the "country bumpkins" in the Army, the Army has always looked down on those in the Navy who even have to eat according to British rules.

A playboy who "worships foreigners and favors foreigners". Who would want to embarrass this person? In the end, everyone said, "Tsuji-kun got into trouble last time, didn't he not deal with it? Let him be punished and serve." So Tsuji Masanobu, the scourge, happened again.

He was released and sent to the Navy. It's hard to say whether the Army had the intention of framing the Navy by sending such a scourge. Anyway, when Yamamoto later mentioned Tsuji Masanobu in his diary, he didn't say a single good word.

Of course, by that time, Tsuji Masanobu had nothing good to say about the Navy. He placed almost all the responsibility for the failure of Guadalcanal on the Navy.

However, at this time, Tsuji Masanobu had a very good impression of the Navy. First, the heroic appearance of Yamato, the world's largest ship with a standard displacement of 65,000 tons and a full load displacement of 72,808 tons, shocked Tsuji Masanobu. Then the Navy's

He was also very touched by his hospitality.

Tsuji Masanobu often publicly scolded the Navy in the past, but this time he was on Navy soil. He originally thought he would be abused by the Navy. But after boarding the Yamato, Yamamoto didn't have time to see him on the first day, so the Navy arranged for him to eat first.

Go to sleep. But all of a sudden, the misunderstanding came out.

Originally, the navy really prepared a pair of small shoes for him. They first excused themselves to say that Staff Officer Tsuji was working too hard and went to his room to rest first? Then they threw him into the worst guest room on the Yamato. When it was time to eat, he just casually

Taking a box lunch and throwing it to him is considered a treat.

But the problem is that Tsuji Masanobu has not had many opportunities to board a Navy ship before. The most recent time was on July 24th, when he boarded the Navy's "Asanagi" destroyer - a 40-year-old warship.

He couldn't eat well and sleep well. Needless to say, the conditions were so bad. Now that he's on the Yamato, it's like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden. The navy threw him into the worst guest room, but this guy didn't notice at all.

Although others were mistreating him, he thought: The Navy is really interesting. It allows me to live in the same place as in a five-star hotel. Not only does it have a super clean and super soft big bed, but there is also a private bathroom, and there are also high-end goods in there. At least it is better than the Army.

Any place in the restaurant would be good. When it came time to eat, in order to prevent him from finding out that the navy didn't give him delicious food, the navy simply didn't let him go to the restaurant and gave him a lunch box. But when Tsuji Masanobu opened the lunch box, he found that

There are both fish and meat in it, which one tastes better? Thinking back to the Navy’s “daily” food I had on the destroyer "Asagagi", I thought that I had always spared no effort to attack the Navy, and the Navy treated me so generously.

The food and accommodation I received were better than those in a five-star hotel, and I was so moved that I burst into tears.

However, Tsuji Masanobu didn’t know it at this moment, but one of the functions of the Yamato was really a luxury hotel. After the world’s largest battleship was launched, in order to show his cordial care for the navy, Emperor Hirohito personally stayed on the ship for a few days.

, along with a large number of high-ranking officials and nobles. In order to receive the emperor and members of the royal family who came to inspect, Yamato's accommodation and dining conditions were designed according to the highest standards from the beginning. So much so that they deliberately wanted to abuse the army.

You are a country bumpkin, but people still misunderstood you.

The next day, Tsuji Masanobu met the commander of the combined fleet, Yamamoto Isoroku. The conversation between the two went smoothly, and Tsuji Masanobu felt that Admiral Yamamoto was extremely amiable.

In fact, Yamamoto is not kind. There are two reasons why Tsuji Masanobu feels this way.

First, the navy is built strictly according to the standards of the British Royal Navy. Every move is imitated by the British, including gentlemanly behavior - even if you want to bite you to death, you must put on white gloves before biting you.

Secondly, Yamamoto himself has a guilty conscience. The Army did this because he was actually tricked by the Navy. And Yamamoto has not yet cultivated to the point where he can still face the disaster like Tsuji Masanobu did and still face the consequences.

As a result, the Navy once again misunderstood Tsuji Masanobu.

The two parties reached an agreement, and the navy agreed to send valuable battleships. Tsuji Masanobu left with satisfaction.
