At this time, Japan’s execution ability is quite good.
Especially when executing direct orders from Locust.
If you say kill, kill immediately, without any delay.
An hour later, Prince Chaoxiang and the Orange Leaf clan were all killed, and all the domestic servants, chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs were killed.
Even the ant holes are filled with boiling water.
Completely eradicating the root of the problem.
As for the bodies of the two principal criminals, they were chopped into pieces with knives and thrown into Tokyo Bay to be fed to fish and shrimp.
After solving the hidden dangers, Zhang Tuohai began to implement his plan.
First, he transferred Captain Xiang Tian and his troops into the Imperial Palace.
Although this guy is not very smart, he is a die-hard Emperor's Daoist, and he is a big fan of Tian Locust. He can execute any orders of Tian Locust without hesitation.
After learning that he would protect His Majesty's safety, Captain Xiangtian felt as if he had been given a shot of blood. He was in an extremely excited state, feeling that the Locust had finally noticed his loyalty and that he could finally be loyal to the great cause of the empire. The soldiers under his command were also in extreme excitement.
It was their honor to be His Majesty's bodyguards. Everyone held their chests high and strode into the Imperial Palace with their heads held high.
Later, under the protection of many guards, Zhang Tuohai held an imperial meeting.
Ministers from all walks of life did not dare to neglect and hurried to the imperial palace for a meeting.
At the imperial meeting, Zhang Tuohai changed from his usual method of using imperial sounds and requiring translators to directly announce orders.
"Prime Minister Hirota is in frail health and is no longer suitable to continue to serve as Prime Minister. Please resign. As for the candidate for the new Prime Minister, Konoe will be the one to serve. Tojo will serve as Minister of War and plan the withdrawal of troops from Manchuria. In addition, the order
The Navy Ministry prepared a complete southward advance plan and gave it to me for review after it was completed. It ordered Yamamoto to prepare for war with European and American monsters, and to make a surprise attack plan, and then handed it over to me."
When they heard Zhang Tuohai's words, everyone below was shocked.
In Japan, there have always been two schools of thought regarding future plans.
One faction is the Northern Movement faction. The goal of this faction is to go north to attack the Soviet Union, completely occupy Manchuria, and then move forward by land and water to occupy the mainland. With the help of the mainland's resources, they will sweep across Southeast Asia. Then they will send troops in two directions, all the way along the Soviet Union to Europe, and all the way along Southeast Asia.
Take India.
The main supporters of this faction are the Army.
Because the most important thing on these battlefields is the Army, which can help the Army win more military expenditures.
The other faction is the Southern Movement faction. The main idea of this faction is to go south to attack Southeast Asia and then occupy the Pacific Islands.
Supporters of this faction are mainly from the Navy. The Navy supports this plan mainly because these battlefields are based on vast oceans, which can help the Navy obtain more military spending and carry out major construction.
However, the main problem now is that Southeast Asia is basically a colony of European and American ghosts. If you go south, you will inevitably start a war with European and American ghosts.
Due to the actual situation, the Northern Movement faction has always had the upper hand.
Tian Locust also rarely expresses his opinions and is always vague, letting the two parties fight on their own and never ending up personally.
But now that he is following Zhang Tuohai's orders, he is obviously openly supporting the Southern Movement.
The people from the southern movement were naturally happy and excited after hearing this, while the people from the northern movement felt as if they were mourning their heirs.
A few people from the Northern Movement did not give up and wanted to struggle.
But just as they were about to speak, they were stopped by Zhang Tuohai.
Zhang Tuohai said coldly: "According to investigations, Doi Madoka, Itagaki Seisaburo, Okamura Ning, and Matsui were all involved in the assassination plan. They were immediately arrested and executed, and their families were exiled to Iwo Jima."
"Your Majesty, Iwo Jima is still in the hands of the American army." A minister wiped his sweat and said.
"Then beat them down and then exile them. Are my words so difficult to understand?"
Zhang Tuohai looked at the other party coldly.
"Hi, I'll make arrangements right away."
Zhang Tuohai announced several orders one after another, arresting all the army generals who were famous in his mind and had committed crimes on the mainland, and shot them on charges of assassination and treason.
Their families were all arrested and prepared to be exiled to Iwo Jima together.
In order to prevent the Army from overpowering the superiors, Zhang Tuohai issued a special order to all the Army troops stationed in the mainland. No one was allowed to step out of the military camp before the evacuation. Otherwise, he would be charged with treason, his family would also be implicated, and all of them would be executed.
The reason why the Japanese Army dared to defeat its superiors was largely due to Locust's inaction and the acquiescence of the Army's top brass.
Now, Zhang Tuohai clearly issued the order as a locust, so naturally no one dared to resist.
Especially after they were dismissed from their posts and a large number of officials sent to the North were shot, everyone was even more frightened, and the power of the imperial power was unprecedentedly strengthened.
Seeing that the situation was irreversible, the Army submitted a withdrawal plan.
It is planned to evacuate hundreds of thousands of troops from Manchuria within three years.
Looking at the plan in his hand, Zhang Tuohai snorted and slapped Tojo on the face.
"Baga, are you perfunctory with me? It actually takes three years to complete the evacuation of hundreds of thousands of people? The empire has lost all its face. Three months. I only give you three months. If you can't complete it,
, just commit suicide."
"Hi." Tojo quickly put the plan away.
After teaching Tojo a lesson, Zhang Tuohai turned to look at Yamamoto.
"Have you prepared your plan?"
"Yes." Yamamoto stood in front of the map and explained.
"If the empire wants to go south to obtain resources, it must go to war with the European and American powers. The European powers are far away and there is nothing to worry about. Moreover, they have independent allies to contain them. The empire's military front is unstoppable. The only one to worry about is the United States, and the American industry
The strength is too strong, so we must first conduct a sneak attack on Hawaii, the home port of the opponent's Pacific Fleet, defeat the opponent's main fleet in one fell swoop, establish an absolute defense circle with Indonesia as the baseline, and then seek peace."
Yamamoto describes his strategic plan.
"Baga."
Zhang Tuohai stood up and slapped Yamamoto directly.
"Why do we, the Japanese Empire, need to sue for peace with the European and American monsters? We have to revise our plans. The absolute defense circle is too conservative. We want to take Australia to the south and use the steel and brass there. We want to go east not only to defeat the United States' Pacific Fleet, but also to
Completely capture Pearl Harbor, and then use Pearl Harbor as a springboard to attack the west coast of the United States. Be sure to capture San Francisco, where I want to watch the sunset!"
Zhang Tuohai said loudly.
It is impossible for him to agree to Yamamoto's plan.
Because if that were the case, history would probably go on its original track, with Japan receiving two atomic bombs and then surrendering.
Zhang Tuohai feels that this punishment is too light for Japan, and he wants to make the punishment more severe.
We must turn Japan into a scorched earth.
To achieve this goal, Japan and the United States must become mortal enemies.
How to achieve this goal?
Nothing irritates the other side more than attacking the American homeland.
He is even preparing to repeat what happened on the mainland in the United States and Australia.
Let there be no possibility of reconciliation between the United States and Japan.
