On the morning of October 31, Nagata Tetsuyama arrived at the office of Prime Minister Tomosaburo Kato, at 7 a.m. Prime Minister Tomosaburo Kato, who had not seen for several months, was thinner than Nagata thought. His skin showed a blue-white color, his cheekbones were raised high and his cheeks collapsed.

Despite his weakness, the current Prime Minister of the Cabinet, Tomosaburo Kato, still had bright and sharp eyes, and his voice was calm and focused, "Nagata, Tanaka Kwan tell me, you have some ideas."

"With a perfect match, a surprise victory. If you want to win the first stage, a decisive surprise victory needs to be completed by landing battles." Nagata Tetsuyama told the plan. As soon as Kato Tomosaburo's eyes became sharp, it could be seen that Navy General Tomosaburo had also considered this direction.

"The Army believes that the enemy's attempt to carry out two large-scale battles in our army in North Korea, and only by relying on our well-trained officers and soldiers to force the enemy into a one-time decisive battle can we break the enemy's attempt. If we win, the enemy's elite in North Korea will be wiped out, and our army will take advantage of the victory to break through the Yalu River and attack Manchuria and Mongolia. If we cannot win completely, we can fight back to the Yalu River in one battle to avoid being consumed by the enemy. Your Excellency, with our well-trained army and the absolute advantage of the navy, landing operations will not be defeated."

General Kato's Nagata Tetsuyama saw that sweat was getting more and more on his forehead. Under the temperature at the end of October, a large drop of sweat had already flowed down his cheeks.

At this moment, a knock sounded outside the door, and someone said, "I'm disturbing."

Nagata Tetsuyama didn't expect that after the man finished speaking, he opened the door without waiting for the answer inside. The man was a military doctor with a stethoscope and a bag with a bag. The military doctor held a tray in his hand and bowed toward Tomosaru Kato and Tomosaru Nagata Tetsuyama inside the room. He walked to Prime Minister Tomosaru Kato, helped him take off half of his military uniform and rolled up his shirt sleeves.

Nagata Tetsuyama looked at the tray, which was covered with a syringe and a bottle of morphine. The military doctor skillfully injected Kato, then listened to the heart sound with a stethoscope, and then measured Kato's blood pressure.

Kato wiped his face with a towel and noticed Nagata's shocked gaze. Kato said in a calm tone: "The abdominal pain has worsened recently. In order not to delay official business, I use morphine to relieve pain. Nagata, what you mean by the Army Department?"

Nagata couldn't speak for a moment. He had already understood that the light in Prime Minister Kato's eyes did not come from the body, but the power provided by the burning of the firm soul in Kato's weak body.

The doctor had already measured his blood pressure and bowed and said, "Your Excellency, please take care of yourself."

Kato did not answer, but waved his hand and signaled the doctor to retreat.

At this time, sweat no longer oozed from Kato's forehead. He asked, "The Army Department has formulated such an idea. What do they want the Navy to do?"

Nagata suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and said sincerely: "The Army Department wants to ask you to make suggestions as the Prime Minister to form the Joint Operations Command of the Landing Operations. The Navy serves as the commander, and the Army sends a deputy commander. The landing operation is commanded by the Deputy Commander of the Army."

General Kato looked at Nagata for a moment, and smiled a little sarcastically: "Haha, Nagata, Lord Tanaka, has Mr. Tanaka agreed to your proposal?"

Nagata Tetsuyama did not say a word, took out the letter signed by Tanaka and others, and presented it to Kato Tomosaburo with both hands. Kato did not immediately disassemble it. He held the letter and thought about something. Nagata found that Kato did not notice that his arms were trembling unconsciously. This was a sign of being terminally ill, not to mention Kato's bloodless blue-white face. These signs all indicate that Kato couldn't last long.

If the next Prime Minister is changed, this plan will take a long time to coordinate. Although he was unable to bear it, Nagata still spoke, "Your Excellency, the Army and the Navy understand the need for sincere cooperation. If you resign as Prime Minister because of illness, you will also step down. The two of you will be able to promote cooperation between the Army and the Navy. If you cannot order it immediately, this plan may not be realized. At that time, the Army will have to advance step by step in the mountainous North Korea with blood, and the powerful navy fleet can only cruise on the sea without any goal. Is this what you want to see?"

Kato's already blue-white skin became paler, and his unconscious trembling arms were still shaking. General Kato's Navy finally spoke, "You just said that you want to completely break the enemy's two battles through a large-scale battle. Can you explain it?"

"The analysis of the Xiaguan comes from a common sense question. How many elite troops does He Rui have? The Imperial Army non-commissioned officers studied in school for more than 12 years, and when they graduated from the Army University, they had 15 years to study. He Rui had been back in the Northeast for seven years. He heard that He Rui was studying the German education system in the Northeast and held compulsory education in large quantities. Even if He Rui's education was successful, it took no more than 3 years to start cultivating non-commissioned officers on a large scale. The number of troops that this group of non-commissioned officers could lead was up to 150,000."

General Kato's Navy had suddenly realized his clarity and admired Nagata in his heart. The navy also analyzed the defeat of the army this time. General Kato also couldn't understand where He Rui had so many elite troops. As a great power, the Japanese Navy knew very well that only advanced equipment but no army that could flexibly use advanced equipment would not be able to win the battle.

The Japanese-Singapore War and the Russo-Japanese War proved this.

Judging from the battle report, the Northeast Army really has the advantage of aircraft. Although the Northeast Army also uses equipment such as flamethrowers that have appeared on the European battlefield, the real victory is the Northeast Army's flexible and brave combat mode.

Nagata Tetsuyama hits the key point from the perspective of the analysis of the number of qualified non-commissioned officers. Assuming that everyone in the Northeast military has a five-year primary school graduation level, it has a little advantage over the Japanese military's education. However, the number of non-commissioned officers trained by the Northeast military in 6 years is far less than that of Japan, which has been engaged in industrialization for decades.

The number of sergeants in Northeast China is indeed only enough to lead 150,000 elite troops. Judging from the known battle situation, the Northeast China Army had 80,000 troops attacking Kanto Prefecture and 160,000 troops attacking North Korea. The 240,000 people were deducted from the logistics forces, which was between 150,000 and 190,000, which was exactly in line with Nagata's judgment.

If the Japanese army dispatched more than 300,000 troops to the battle, its strength should be on par with the Northeast Army. The number of elite troops is even better than that of the Northeast Army. Of course, such an explanation is still not enough to convince General Kato, but General Kato also has problems that he must face.

Kato opened Yoshiichi Tanaka's letter, but after reading it, he did not answer Nagata, but said, "I understand."

Nagata bowed and said goodbye. When Nagata left, Kato called the adjutant and "prepare the vehicle."

The adjutant quickly replied, "Your Excellency, the car is ready."

"Go to the Admiralty." Kato said, wanting to stand up. But he tried twice in a row and couldn't stand up. The adjutant quickly helped Kato stand up, and at the same time he was puzzled and determined again, "Your Excellency, didn't you say you were going to pay homage to His Majesty's Chief Guard?"

While walking forward with the help of the adjutant, Kato ordered: "Send someone to report to the Chief Guard. Because of military affairs, I will go to the Chief Guard later. Please forgive me. I will definitely go to see him today. This matter is serious, so please stay in the palace."

The adjutant quickly gave the order. He helped Kato into the rear seat of the car. The adjutant sat in the front row and ordered to the driver: "Go to the Admiralty immediately."

In 1896, under the leadership of the Meiji government, Tokyo Kasugi, which gathered Japanese government agencies, there were three three-story Baroque red brick buildings that rose up opposite the moat of the Imperial House Sakuradamen. Among them, one next to the Imperial House is the Ministry of Justice, and the one next to the "Dao Instrument" is located on the side of Sakurada Avenue. The "Dao Instrument" is equivalent to the Supreme Court. The last building is the Navy Provincial Building full of style.

The organizational structure of the Japanese Navy is similar to that of the Army. The Navy's General Staff is called the "Military Command", which occupies a floor in the Navy Province. The combat plan is formulated by the Military Command and submitted to the Japanese Emperor, the Grand Marshal of the Three Armed Forces. Once passed, it will be handed over to the Minister of Navy, and the Minister of Navy will hand over the plan to the commander of the Joint Fleet to execute.

The Minister of Navy, Minister of Military Order, Commander of the Joint Fleet, also known as the "Three Chiefs".

After the Navy Minister Kato arrived at the Navy Ministry, he immediately summoned General Gentaro Yamashita and Lieutenant General Takeshitaji, the commander of the Joint Fleet.

At this time, Yamamoto Iroku Nakasa was receiving the speech from General Gentaro Yamashita. After returning from studying in the United States, Yamamoto Iroku taught at the Naval University. Just a few days ago, he ordered him to report to the Military Command.

Today, on October 31, several people who officially became the combat staff of the Military Order Command accepted the lectures of General Yamashita. After that, General Yamashita left Yamamoto alone. After saying a few words, the adjutant of General Yamashita ran in and whispered a few words. General Yamashita immediately ordered: "Yamamoto, go to work." After that, General Yamashita followed the adjutant out of the office and threw Yamamoto who was bowing and seeing him off in the office.

Yamamoto didn't think anything would happen. Now that he entered the stalemate stage, the two sides of the warring parties would avoid meaningless battles in order to gather their strength to launch the next attack.

After walking out of the Military Order Minister's Office, Yamamoto went straight to the Operations Section. The Operations Section Chief immediately sent Yamamoto a stack of charts and asked him to formulate a shelling plan. Yamamoto asked the intelligence office for information and war reports on the Northeast Army Air Force and carefully studied it.

After reading the information, Yamamoto has made a preliminary judgment. There is no shelter in the vast sea, and aircraft in high altitudes can easily capture the tails of the fleet when sailing. In clear weather, there is no possibility of a surprise attack. As for the severe weather, the fleet's near-shore artillery will be crazy. Under normal circumstances, the Northeast Army will definitely be able to obtain the position of the Japanese fleet first and complete the preparations in advance.

As soon as he made a judgment, the head of the Operations Section came over to inquire about the work results of the staff. Seeing Yamamoto Masato looking at the battle report with interest, the section chief walked to Yamamoto and said unhappily: "Yamamoto, how much has your work been completed?"

Yamamoto Izuru was not interested in doing meaningless work. He was unhappy and simply said, "There has been a lot of progress."

The section chief was already anxious and saw that Yamamoto's attitude was not serious, so he wanted to capture Yamamoto as a typical example. The section chief shouted: "Then please tell me what your work progress is!"

Reader ID card-563743675

Although Yamamoto is generous and humorous, he is very attentive to work. Seeing the section chief like this, he saw everyone in the office looking over. Yamamoto stood up calmly and said loudly: "My work progress has been made so far, and our main battleship is not suitable for the coverage of the enemy air force. Although I have limited knowledge of the air force and cannot accurately judge the distance, areas close to the enemy airport are not suitable for ships including cruisers to get close to them."

Seeing that Yamamoto was actually pretending to be a real work, the section chief seemed to be very informative, and was not ready to give Yamamoto any more face, he asked loudly: "What made Yamamoto judge the distance? What formula is it based on? Or what equation is it based on? Or what theory is it based on?"

Under the gaze of the military command officers, Yamamoto walked to a blackboard and wiped all the numbers written on it. Even though these numbers were copied on the blackboard, Nagashikazuki was quite unhappy when he saw the numbers he had worked hard to copy were wiped off.

Yamamoto Iroji picked up the chalk and started writing some numbers quickly. Because he had a good memory, Yamamoto wrote very quickly. After finishing writing, Yamamoto began to explain to these numbers, "This is the top armor of our army's King Kong battleship, this is the side armor of the King Kong, this is the thickness of the armor outside the chimney of the King Kong. This is the top armor of our army's cruiser..."

Everyone was confused and didn't know what Yamamoto Izuru was trying to list these. Yamamoto Izuru didn't make a spoof, but just listed the iconic data clearly, then put down the chalk, clapped his hands, and asked a calm question, "If these armors were hit by a 200-kilogram charge of explosive bombs, the speed of these explosive bombs is 100-150 kilometers per hour. Then, which armor can withstand it?"

The naval officers were all confused. So far, there were no explosive shells loaded with 200 kilograms. The ratio of the charge amount of the shell to the weight of the shell is about 100:1 to 50:1. The 200 kilograms of the shells weighed less than 10 tons. It was the mighty Queen Elizabeth-class battleship in the European War, and the main gun shells were speechless. Although the combat section chief was angry at this time, it did not mean that his military level was insufficient. The Japanese Navy Command would never allow a non-elite officer to serve as the combat section chief.

Therefore, the combat section chief with high level of computing capabilities has made several formulas for kinetic energy, impulse, and work calculations physically from the assumptions proposed by Yamamoto.

Then, the section chief has discovered that even the battleships that the Japanese army now owned, their buildings cannot withstand such death impacts. If they are not lucky, they will detonate the gunpowder depot and the battleships will sink.

Forcibly suppressing the strong emotions in his heart, the section chief walked to Yamamoto Izuru and said politely and respectfully: "Yamamoto, please come with me."

The two walked out of the war room one by one. The staff officers who stayed in the war room all looked ugly. No one expected that the plane could be used like this! Moreover, this usage even met the Navy's long-term expectation, that is, the shells have the same thinking ability as humans.

At present, the Northeast Army has a comprehensive advantage in aircraft, and the Northeast Army has no navy yet... The Japanese Navy officers who originally thought they could sail at will on the Chinese coastline found that things didn't seem that simple.

A major couldn't help but say, "Yamamoto suddenly had a whim, I don't think the Northeast Army could have thought of it!"

Although the lord had a loud voice, he obviously lacked confidence. Nan Yunzhong sighed in his heart. He remembered a past event, which was also a very inappropriate joke that He Rui made after drinking too much.

That time, Nagamoto Tadaichi and Yamaguchi Daumen and He Rui drank with He Rui and talked about the battle between the plane and the warship. He Rui was a little drunk at the time, so he said to Yamaguchi Daumen in a very serious manner: "If you fill the plane with explosives and hit the warship with the plane, it will at least look scary."

Although Yamaguchi Tatsume was rude, he was not a stereotype. He didn't laugh when he heard this, and even said unhappily: "Ho Jun! How can you use the life of a soldier like this!"

He Rui laughed at the time and was completely distracted. Natsuyuki Tadaichi was also very puzzled by He Rui's reaction at that time. However, Natsuyuki Tadaichi did leave an impression of this matter at that time. From a simple military perspective, such exchange ratio is indeed reasonable.

Thinking of the past, Tadaichi Nagashi suddenly felt that this moment was like that. In Nagashi Nagashi's eyes, He Rui was a strategic talent with a thorough understanding of military theory. The application of aircraft is a strategic decision. If the aircraft really hits and sinks the Japanese battleship, even if it is just a battleship that is hit and sinks, the Navy may have someone to cut off the stomach.

Tadichi Nagamoto believed that with He Rui's extremely cold strategic thinking, he must have such a plan. However, people with a slacking personality like Yamamoto Iroku can also think of such a possibility. Some people say that the two extremes will show together.

But Tadaichi Nagamo can no longer understand his mood. Should he be grateful for the possibility of being revealed, or fearful of the possibility of being revealed?
