Almost at the same time, in Tokyo.

Perhaps because of Myanmar's failure, the sky in Tokyo is also gloomy today.

When I got out of the car, drizzled in the sky. Although it was early May, the weather was still a little cool.

The accompanying secretary immediately handed over the windbreaker.

But Hideki Tojo pushed the windbreaker away, then tidied up his military uniform, and walked into the imperial palace with his head held high.

Although he is now the prime minister of the empire, Hideki Tojo still never forgets his military status and is dressed in military uniform wherever he goes.

But soon, Hideki Tojo regretted it.

Because when he stepped into the imperial study, he felt a biting chill.

Hirohito knelt on a short table with his back to the door, puffing his hair into the ink and practicing calligraphy.

Hirohito had obviously heard the sound of footsteps, but he did not mean to look back, and did not even stop writing, but continued to focus on calligraphy.

Tojo Hideki's face immediately collapsed.

He felt that His Majesty the Emperor was angry.

Having said that, it is normal for His Majesty to be angry.

It would be abnormal if His Majesty the Emperor was not angry.

One general army, 20 divisions, and a 500,000 army are in danger

It is no exaggeration to say that this will shake the foundation of the Japanese Empire!

Once the 20 divisions of the Myanmar sent to the condemnation army were completely wiped out by the national army, the situation in the Sino-Japanese War is likely to reverse.

Once the situation on the Asian battlefield undergoes a fundamental reversal, no matter how much victory the Japanese Navy wins on the Pacific battlefield, even if it blows the entire west coast of the United States into ruins, it will become meaningless.

Therefore, before coming to the Imperial Palace this time, Hideki Tojo had already made sufficient psychological suggestions.

However, Hirohito not only did not scold or even said a word, but it was a bit beyond his expectations.

Compared to the suffocating silence that is now, Hideki Tojo would rather Hirohito be able to scold him a few times.

Finally, Hirohito finished writing a piece of characters, put the brush on the pen holder, and then raised the freshly written characters with both hands and showed them to Tojo Hideki.

Hideki Tojo looked closely, but saw that there was only one word on the banner, and the word "shame".

"Tojo-kun." Hirohito looked at Tojo Hideki with a gloomy look and said quietly, "Do you know this word?"

"Hai." Hideki Tojo paused his head and said bitterly, "This is a word of shame, a shame of shame."

"Shame?" Hirohito suddenly laughed, and the laughter echoed in the quiet study, which sounded a little creepy.

After a while, Hirohito suddenly slapped the banner in his hand to the ground. He still kicked the low-key again and then roared: "It turns out that you still recognize this word, it turns out that you also know the word shame! Haha, Tojo-kun, I thought you didn't know how the word shame was written at all?"

Tojo Hideki drooped his head and said nothing.

"Shame, this is a shame!" Hirohito continued to roar loudly, "This is not only a shame for the Great Japanese Imperial Army, but also a shame for the Great Japanese Empire and a great shame for the royal family!"

Tojo Hideki fell silently on the floor and pressed his head against the floor.

"Don't show off this innocent look in front of me." Hirohito said angrily, "Although the Battle of Myanmar was not your commander, the suggestion that Umezu Mijiro and Ishihara Kanir were clearly you! It was your promise that Umezu Mijiro could be more competent in the position of commander-in-chief of the Myanmar condemnation army than Ishihara Kanir!"

"Your Majesty, I'm missing the truth." Hideki Tojo could only honestly admit his mistake.

"It's over if you miss it?" Hirohito roared, "Can you miss it save the situation in Myanmar? Can you save the trapped 500,000 troops? Can you save the national destiny of the empire? If it's useful to admit your mistake, none of the so many imperial dynasties in the world will be destroyed since ancient times! Hum?"

The arrogance in Tojo Hideki's heart was also aroused.

Although you are His Majesty the Emperor, you will not insult my personality.

At that moment, Hideki Tojo said, "Your Majesty, I will give you an explanation to the Empire!"

After saying that, Tojo Hideki got up from the ground and walked out, with a decisive look on his face.

"Stop, what do you want to do?" Hirohito said angrily, "Do you want to give up the septum? Tell you, it's not that easy. You commit suicide by septum now. That's an escape, it's a coward!"

Hideki Tojo said in a deep voice: "What does Your Majesty want?"

"Don't you understand what I want?" Hirohito waved his hands and said angrily, "I want the 500,000 troops of Myanmar to be safe and sound. I want to occupy Myanmar, China, and even the entire Asian continent!"

Tojo Hideki frowned and said, "Since that's the case, then let's change people."

"Substitution?" Hirohito said, "Will Ishihara Kanr return to Myanmar again?"

Hideki Tojo shook his head and said, "No, it is definitely not appropriate to let Ishihara Kanji return to Myanmar."

Hirohito said: "Then do you mean to ask the commander-in-chief of the Chinese condemnation army Nishio Suzuo to Myanmar?"

"Of course not. Nishio Shou is old, how can he take on this important task?" Tojo Hide shook her head, "I think that the only one who can save Myanmar's crisis is Okamura."

"Okamura-kun?" Hirohito's face relaxed.

Regarding this, Hideki Tojo is just thinking about it with him.

Nodded, Hirohito said again: "Then, let's talk to the Army Department. In addition, this matter should be fast, it must be fast! The situation in Myanmar does not wait for anyone, and the 500,000 troops of the 20 divisions of the Myanmar condemnation army are not waiting for anyone!"

"Hayi!" Hideki Tojo bowed his head heavily and said, "I'll go to the Army."

"Wait!" Seeing Hideki Tojo turning around and leaving, Hirohito called him again and said, "Tojo, I know a little bit about what happened in Myanmar, so this time, I hope that the same thing will not happen again! I don't want any external factors to interfere with Mr. Okamura, do you understand?"

"Hayi!" Hideki Tojo paused his head.

...

In Peiping, the North China Front Command.

Okamura Yasuji is listening to the battle report of this spring sweep.

Less than half a month ago, the North China Front Army launched a spring sweep against the Eighth Route Army in the central Hebei Plain, achieving good results.

To use the words of the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Route Army's base has been divided into small pieces, which means that they can penetrate the base with just one shot.

In general, the situation of the security war in North China is pretty good.

At least, it did not continue to deteriorate, but was improving.

Listening to the report of Nakamoto Satohiki, Chief of Staff, Dakawa Miji suddenly hurried in.

"Hello Master, have you heard of it?" Miji Ogito said anxiously, "There is a big deal in Myanmar."
