In the end, Hirohito called in the imperial guards and finally separated Tojo Hideki and Yoneuchi Mitsumasa, only to find that Tojo Hideki's myopia glasses had been broken, but Yoneuchi Mitsumasa did not take any advantage.
, a cut was made on the corner of his eyebrow by a straight punch from Tojo Hideki, and blood was flowing out.
"Look at you, how do you look like a military minister?" Xianyuan Gong Zairen was so angry that his white beard trembled, and he scolded severely, "You are just like two street gangsters. Oh no, street gangsters are more polite than you.
It’s simply embarrassing.”
Tojo Hideki and Yoneuchi Mitsumasa glared at each other, then snorted coldly and looked away.
Hiranuma Kiichiro smoothed things over and said: "I have already stated it just now, and now I will reiterate it again. The theme of this imperial meeting is the rocket launcher. I hope everyone will only talk about things related to the rocket launcher and not involve other things. So now,
Let me tell you my opinion again. I also think that there is no need to equip rocket launchers at this stage."
After a pause, Hiranuma Kiichiro continued: "As for the reason, as the evaluation report of the Nakamura Agency said, the imperial army's equipment of rocket launchers is of little significance at this stage, but the cost of building factories and assembly production lines is huge, and procurement and
The cost of installing it will be even greater, and I’m afraid the empire’s finances won’t be able to support it.”
Araki Sadao suddenly said: "But the evaluation report of the Nakamura Agency also said that in the future, the application prospects of rocket launchers are very broad. At this stage, the Imperial Army may not be able to use rocket launchers for the time being, but who can be sure in the future?
The empire will not go to war with Western powers? So proper equipment is still necessary."
"I firmly oppose it," Ishikatsu Inotarō said. "The Ministry of Finance has no money."
Hirota Hongki said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness and your colleagues, I have a suggestion."
Hirohito raised his hands and said: "Hirota-san, I know you are always resourceful. Please tell me, what suggestions do you have?"
"Hai." Hirota Koki paused heavily and continued, "Shi Shesang just said that the empire's financial constraints may not be able to support the research and development, production and large-scale replacement of rocket launchers, but His Majesty and you must not forget
Yes, our Empire of Japan still has die-hard friends, and we still have allies!"
"No, no, I'm not talking about Germany." Hirota Koki waved his hand and said, "I'm talking about Manchukuo."
"Manchukuo?" Hirohito's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, and he nodded happily and said, "Yoshi, this is a good idea."
Hiranuma Kiichiro immediately followed Hirohito's tone and said: "Hirota-san's suggestion is very good. I think it's settled. I immediately instruct the Nakamura agency to get a rocket launcher sample as soon as possible, and then transfer it to the Kwantung Army and hand it over to Manchukuo.
It was developed, produced and equipped by Manchukuo's weapons research and development department."
Ishishe Ino Taro agreed. For him, as long as it does not cost the Ministry of Finance, everything is easy.
Mitsumasa Yoneuchi certainly has no objection. For him, it is a great good thing that the Kwantung Army is equipped with rocket launchers, because it means that the Kwantung Army has a greater chance of winning when facing the Soviet Red Army. Once a conflict really breaks out between Japan and the Soviet Union, and the Kwantung Army
If the army still wins the conflict, the strategy of heading north will undoubtedly prevail.
Although Tojo Hideki was reluctant, Hirohito had already nodded, so what could he do?
Therefore, this impromptu imperial meeting quickly reached an agreement to hand over the research, trial production and production tasks of rocket launchers to the Kwantung Army, and to equip the Kwantung Army first. It must be noted that history has turned a corner here, and Japan's
This imperial meeting had a serious impact on the upcoming Nomenkan Incident.
After the imperial meeting ended, Hiranuma Kiichiro and others left one after another, but Hirota Koki was left behind by Hirohito.
Hirohito left Hirota Koki behind to blockade Dameishan, and said: "Hirota-san, the Imperial Army on the Chinese battlefield does not have access to rocket launchers, but the Chinese rocket launchers can pose a fatal threat to the Imperial Army's armored and aviation forces. This kind of
The situation must be reversed, so the inflow of strategic materials to Damei Mountain must be completely cut off.”
Hirota Koki sighed, but thought in his heart, you should tell Itagaki-san that I am not the commander of the Twelfth Army, so you have nothing to say to me about this matter?
Regardless of what Hirota Koki thought, Hirohito continued: "The 12th Army under the Central China Dispatch Army will be responsible for the geographical blockade of Damei Mountain, but the geographical blockade alone is probably not enough. The Empire may
A comprehensive blockade is also needed from the political and diplomatic levels."
"A blockade at the political and diplomatic levels?" Hirota was surprised.
"Yes." Hirohito said, "According to the information provided by the Super High School Course, although Xu Rui's Dameishan base has established many factories and even arsenals, they are currently unable to produce motors, fuses, batteries and other technical content.
Or products that require relatively high precision. Therefore, as long as we lock it in from the political and diplomatic levels so that the Dameishan base area cannot obtain the products they urgently need from the West, the Dameishan industrial zone will immediately become difficult to operate, especially
Fuze, once we block their access to the fuze, their rocket launchers will immediately become a display."
"Your Majesty, I understand!" Hirota Koki nodded and added, "I will send a note to the U.S. and British governments when I get back, asking them to immediately suspend all trade with the Nationalist Government. If they dare not agree, the empire will
Immediately suspend all trade with them, but I believe they will make a wise choice."
David was sitting in his office on the twenty-sixth floor, overlooking the street view outside the floor-to-ceiling glass window, looking complacent.
Although David Arms Trading Company was only a small and unknown company at this time, with only six employees, and even the office space was temporarily rented, David was still full of confidence in the future of the company, because David Arms
The trading company holds three major patents.
These three major patents are for concave projectiles, rocket launchers and anti-infantry directional mines.
The current international situation is becoming more and more tense. Although the United States has not yet stepped out of its glorious isolationism, with the rapid changes in the world situation, the United States cannot be alone and will eventually be involved in the war. Therefore, in the near future, these three major
Patents will bring a steady stream of cash income to the company.
Patents, these are the cash cows of any company!
Thinking of cows, David couldn't help but glance at the female secretary sitting opposite him.
His female secretary was not only young and beautiful, but also had a proud bust. Thinking of the scene of the two of them having sex on the bed in the apartment last night, David couldn't help but feel a burning sensation in his crotch.
As if feeling David's fiery gaze, the female secretary who was immersed in her work suddenly raised her head, raised the corner of her mouth, and gave David a seductive look.
The female secretary's flirtatious look immediately ignited David.
No matter it was still working hours and he was in the company, David stretched out his right hand to flirt with the female secretary. The female secretary understood and immediately got up from the chair, swaying her hips and walked over, walking around the big table.
Then he sat down on David's lap and wrapped his hands around David's thick neck.
David reached out and pressed the female secretary's proud breasts, and when he was about to do more, the phone on the table suddenly rang.
"I'll do it myself." The smart, agreeable and coquettish female secretary bit David's ear and whispered softly, then started to unbutton his clothes. David freed his right hand to pick up the microphone and asked, "Hello
, this is David Company.”
Immediately there was a voice on the phone: "David, are you fucking your secretary again? That plump cow?"
David immediately recognized that it was his good friend, Army Colonel Scherner, the head of the Equipment Procurement Division under the U.S. Department of Defense. It was Scherner who brought the big order of 5,000 rocket launchers from David's company. Of course,
Yes, Schner also has another unknown identity. He is also a shareholder of David Company.
"Oh, God, Schener, how did you know?" David clamped the phone in the crook of his neck, then freed up his right hand to knead the female secretary's body wantonly. The female secretary soon began to gasp for breath.
"I can smell her stinky smell even through the phone." Schener laughed, then changed his tone and said, "But now you should get down to business first. The Procurement Department has just received an official letter from the Ministry of National Defense.
Companies that have trade dealings with China will immediately suspend all China-related business, including your David Company!"
"Stop all business related to China?" David's hands immediately froze on the female secretary, and then asked in a deep voice, "Why is this? Why are we suspending all business related to China? Why not make money if you can?"
"Because Japan, a big customer, is angry. If the United States does not suspend trade with China, the Japanese will no longer do business with us in the United States." Skner said in a deep voice, "David, I know you have a good relationship with the Chinese.
, I am also willing to help China emotionally, but willingness is one thing, and reality is another. The reality is that the trade volume between the United States and China is not even a fraction of the trade volume between the United States and Japan. It is impossible for us to offend Japan because of China!
do you understand?"
"I understand." David responded dejectedly, and Schener on the other end put down the phone.
The female secretary felt David's "despondency", took her hand out of David's crotch, and asked disappointedly: "Dear, what's wrong with you? Do you need my help?"
With that said, the female secretary knelt down between David's legs.
But David shook his head, pulled the female secretary up, and said, "Ruth, please help me immediately send a transoceanic telegram to my Chinese partner. I have news to inform him."
