"The Great Japanese Empire, onboard!"

"Navy Army, onboard!"

"Victory, onboard!"

When the car that Lieutenant General Ishihara Kanir was riding through the streets of Tokyo, he happened to meet the parade celebrating victory. In this time and space, Ishihara did not have the title of "Hero of the Manchurian Incident". Although it was also a thorn in the army, its influence was limited and it poses little threat to Tojo. Therefore, he was not kicked into the reserve by Hideki Tojo. He also participated in the south as the division commander, and now he has become the second officer of the General Office.

Shortly after Ishihara took office, the Japanese Empire achieved a historic victory.

Japan defeated the arrogant British Empire!

On February 1, 1943, after ending his visit to Germany, France and Italy, the Queen of England officially issued the "Armature Decree", announcing that Britain had officially withdrawn from the Allies and sought peace from the Axis countries, including the Japanese Empire.

Therefore, Japan has now defeated Britain and became an amazing victorious country. The day after the Queen of England announced a ceasefire and asked for peace, the Japanese government also issued an announcement announcing that it would accept the British peace, and designated February 2 as "Victory Day against Britain."

Japan was originally fighting against Britain and the United States. Now Britain has "surrendered" and there is only one United States left. I think it is hard to fight alone. The final victory of the Japanese Empire seems to be just around the corner.

Therefore, many citizens in Tokyo were spontaneously or were brought to the streets by various organizations serving the country and Congress on February 2 to hold a victory parade.

"Baga!" Ishihara Kanji, who had always been talking a lot and had a bit of a poisonous mouth, looked at the cheerful crowd outside the car window, and couldn't help but curse, "Are these people fools? Can't you see that the surrender of the British mainland will cause Japan to fall into an unprecedented hard battle?"

"Ishihara, look at what you said, the situation is so serious?" General Kenji Doihara, the director of the aviation industry in the same car, said disapprovingly, "When Britain is defeated, the Soviet Union's Western Front battlefield will inevitably be very tight, and there is no force to threaten the security of Manchuria. This will be very beneficial to the empire's final solution to the Manchuria problem."

"Manchuria issue?" Ishihara smiled, "When is it now, and I still have the mentality of this? It is possible for the Soviet Union to transfer its troops in the Far East to the west, but the United States will also turn its focus to the Pacific... With the United States' industrial strength, how many aircraft carriers and battleships will be built in the end? I can't imagine! General, don't you know that those navy members can't eat or sleep in these two days?"

"What's the matter?" Kenji Doihara shook his bald head, "This is how the people of the Navy are, who are afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back... The promised Australian strategy also gave up, and he wanted to reduce the resources and funds of our army to build aircraft carriers. He was really shameless at all."

"Marson Yamamoto is really confused. How much capital do we have? How can we compete with the Americans for aircraft carriers?"

Ishihara Kaner actually knew that it was necessary to accelerate the construction of Dafeng-class and Yunlong-class aircraft carriers, but this issue involved the dispute over interests of the army and the navy. Military spending and resources were just that little. If the navy used it to build an aircraft carrier, the army would be poor.

So these days, the two big-maru Ishihara and Doihara have been "grabbing business" with the navy. It was obviously a Pacific War, so it was necessary to make a point that the army was also very important!

Moreover, Ishihara has a very nonsense mouth, which is probably the reason why Tojo recalled him from the front line to become a second official? Anyway, under the nonsense of Ishihara Kanir, many people, including the Japanese Emperor Hirohito, agreed with Ishihara's "Pacific Army Promises" proposed by Ishihara.

The so-called "Pacific Army Forced Reconciliation Theory" means that in fighting the Pacific War, aircraft carriers and battleships cannot rely on aircraft carriers and battleships, because that is to compete for industrial strength. American artificial aircraft carriers are like dumplings, and they just have dozens of ships at will! Can Japan do it? The Dafeng class and Yunlong class have only started construction of 4 ships. Even if 8 ships are doubled, can they compete with dozens of ships in the United States?

So Ishihara Kanir proposed the concept of "death struggle" Japan cannot compete with the United States for aircraft carriers and battleships, but for people to fight for death!

Because Americans' lives are valuable, if they can kill hundreds of thousands or millions of them in one battle, even if they lose, the United States will agree to make peace with Japan.

On the contrary, if the aircraft carrier is fought, what can it do if a few Americans are sunk? The United States will build more aircraft carriers to fight against Japan! So no matter how many victory is achieved in the Hawaii Naval Battle, Japan will still lose in the end.

And to fight to the death, of course, there must be a battlefield for fighting to the death.

Ishihara Kan's opinion is to fight hard with the United States in the Hawaiian Islands! He will defend heavily, and then put the Americans on the island to fight hard! He will strive to kill more than 100,000 or 200,000 of them in one battle, which will make the Americans really hurt, and then there will be decent peace.

To achieve this goal, the army should get more military expenditure and resources. With military expenditure and resources, the army can train more troops and produce more "island-defying weapons" such as ki84 (Breath), 97-improved tank destroyer (Japanese weasel), Type 3 wheeled assault gun (Japanese version of the cougar), and Type 3 medium tank (developed since 1942, earlier than in history).

Regarding the recently proposed "surprise attack on Panama" by the Japanese Navy, Ishihara Kanir also believes that it is not necessary.

"Ito-kun, the so-called surprise attack is just to place victory on luck. It is possible once or twice, and it is inevitable that you will lose something like this."

In a conference room within the Army General Staff Headquarters, Ishihara and Doihara once again began to talk nonsense. The targets were Major General Ito, the deputy chief of the Navy Command, and Lieutenant General Tsukahara Nikezuka, the chief of the Navy Aviation Headquarters.

The negotiations between the Navy and the Army are now in charge of the four of them. The meeting locations are the Navy Command and the Army General Staff Headquarters. Once on the Navy's territory, the next time on the Army's territory, and no one suffers a loss.

Ishihara still opposed Major General Ito Kazuichi's idea of ​​a surprise attack on the Panama Canal.

He said: "Even if you succeed, it will only postpone the Battle of the Hawaiian Islands by 6-10 months. Although our empire can use these 6-10 months to strengthen its defense, the United States can also use this period to strengthen its offensive power... If there are 10 months, the American aircraft carriers can probably be added to 10, right? I can't see where it is beneficial to postpone the decisive battle?"

"However, with these 10 months, the ki84 fighter can be developed, and our navy's n1k2-j (purple electric) fighter can be completed." Lieutenant General Tsukahara Niso-3 retorted, "With these two fighter jets, the battle to guard the Hawaiian Islands can be foolproof."

"How can there be no foolproof?" Ishihara smiled, "If we are foolproof, wouldn't the United States be defeated? How can someone fight a battle that will be defeated? Moreover, since we do not have ki84 and Zidian, we will not be as good as the United States in terms of aviation. How can we succeed in the surprise attack plan?"

Although Ishihara is very nonsense, the arguments proposed make sense. According to the exact information provided by Germany (accessed through the UK that has already been summed), the latest American carrier-based aircraft and shore-based fighters 4u, 6 and p47 have certain advantages over zero aircraft in terms of performance.

In particular, 6 is a "zero killer" that is completely aimed at zero development, and can have a great advantage over zero and Folk Zero in paper data!

Therefore, the German Naval Armed Forces Agency has asked Fokker and British Hawk to cooperate to develop a piston carrier-based aircraft based on the Furious Fighter, which is also developed for Zero.

On the one hand, Japan cooperated with Germany and Italy, hoping to accelerate the research and development and production of the "Seventeen-ship Trial"; on the other hand, it hopes to attack the Panama Canal.

"The Navy has already considered this and will have a complete plan. Marshal Yamamoto has made up his final decision! Moreover, this attack is not limited to Panama, it is a full-scale attack on the United States and will also affect the United States. It is an unprecedented event since the war begins. It will greatly dampen the morale of the United States and will definitely win enough time for the empire to deploy defenses." Ito Kazuichi said confidently, "So your army will now formulate a plan according to the schedule of the decisive battle against Hawaii in 1944... I hope your ki84 fighter jets can show their skills at that time!"

Ishihara Kanir couldn't say anything now. Yamamoto Iroku had made up his mind, and it was not his turn to ask about the specific plans of the Navy, as the second officer of the Army.

...

"What? We need to use ju288 to attack the Panama Canal? Are the Japanese kidding? Looking down from a height of 10,000 meters, how big is the gate? And Americans can also set off smoke."

"Father, I think... the ju288 air strike is only part of the Japanese plan to attack the Panama Canal. This time the Japanese seem to have a big plan."

On February 3, the day after the UK formally asked for peace, Hessman's son, Rudolph von Heinsberg, returned to Berlin with a proposal for joint operations by the Japanese Navy.

He was promoted again in January to become a major of the Naval Aviation Corps, and also left the aircraft carrier and became the Naval Aviation Corps Commissioner of the German Navy's Navy delegation to Japan.

The Japanese Navy also began to formulate a new plan for combat against the United States code-named "Syama Plan" in January 1943. According to the Japanese Navy's vision, the "Syama Plan" will include a series of attacks on the United States, and the surprise attack on the Panama Canal is just one of them.

In addition, the "Yamazon Plan" led by the Japanese Navy will also be a large-scale coordinated operation plan for joint operations by the Axis countries.
