"Baga! These white-haired pigs are simply greedy and shameless!" Konoe Fumi cursed repeatedly.

A new round of negotiations between Japan and the United States failed again.

Because Hideki Tojo is a leading war member who advocates declaring war on the United States, if it were not for some powerful generals, he would have stepped down long ago. But now, the main thing about his dealings with the United States is Konoe Fumi.

He was deeply trusted by Hirohito and the royal family and could make some unknown concessions in negotiations.

But the Americans have recovered from Asia now, and China is still beating Japan. The Americans who are taking advantage of the situation naturally ask for a price.

Even unconditional surrender is subject to many conditions, but the high demands of the Americans are still unacceptable to the Japanese.

Not to mention that the trial of war criminals involves Hirohito and many powerful generals, just astronomical war compensation can eliminate the wealth plundered by the Japanese, and even over the years of accumulation of the Japanese, it can completely bring the Japanese's economic level back to the last century.

This is based on the fact that the Americans underestimated the amount of Japanese plundering wealth. Their purpose was to defeat the Japanese without any power to fight back and were completely controlled by the United States.

The Japanese, who still felt that they had not reached the end of their journey, naturally refused to agree. The two sides argued against the conditions little by little, but they could not be good at all.

The negotiations were not going well, and the Americans' big stick danced again.

The war in the Northern Mariana Islands has been ongoing, with nearly half of the main forces of the Japanese joint fleet concentrated here, confronting the Americans.

When Japanese citizens criticized local security, they also pulled out the main naval force, which was a helpless move.

The Japanese saw it very clearly that they had become a situation of dying and there was no possibility of peace talks. Therefore, they had to force the Americans to the negotiating table first. Even though the local people were attacked by China, the Japanese still firmly believed that relying on the local fleet and local defense could block the attack of China, and they pushed most of the main forces of the navy to the Americans, but did not withdraw.

Some of the main naval forces are near the Philippines. As the biggest bargaining chip for peace talks with the Americans, the Philippines cannot make the Americans easily succeed. And they must take into account the defense of the Chinese who are good at raids.

The Chinese did not come, but the Americans' big stick fell in the Philippines.

While the United States was still arguing about whether to fight against Japan or reconcile, MacArthur had long been ready to attack the Philippines to clear his humiliation of evacuation in a mess.

Even he was going to risk his attack on the grounds of disobeying military orders, but Roosevelt persuaded him to stop him.

Roosevelt also gave him a positive answer, which would give him a chance to revenge.

While he was constantly strengthening his landing preparations, the US Navy also approached the Philippines from Irian Island where the war was still spreading, looking for fighter jets to consume the strength of the Japanese Navy.

Near Karakron Island, the Japanese and American navies launched three large-scale battles. The ending also ended with the failure of the Japanese who lost their air supremacy.

Even with the addition of China Airlines, the Japanese could not stop the Americans' air attacks. Even most of the air supremacy over the Philippines was lost.

Although the Americans did not continue to land on the Philippines, they kept sending bombers to the Philippines since the Americans gained their foothold on Irian Island.

Most of the American bombers in Asia are used to bomb the Philippines. The targets bombed by the wealthy Americans are not limited to Japan's defense points, clearing landing obstacles, and increasing the attack range, bombing many public facilities in large and small cities, paralyzing the Japanese's management order.

Although the bombing with an expanded range may hurt innocent people, there are very few Americans in the Philippines, whether they are native Filipinos or Japanese. They are not worthy of American pity.

Even if this approach would increase the hatred value of some native Filipinos, who would have been concerned about it in that era? Moreover, the power of the large bombing can undoubtedly show the strength of the Americans, deepen the fear of those natives for their colonists, and benefit their subsequent rule.

After most of the few Japanese people who did not have enough air defense were knocked out by Americans one after another, they had no choice but to get used to the continuous bombing of the Americans.

But starting from September 7, the US air bombing was particularly fierce. Immediately afterwards, the Americans retaliated for surprise to the Japanese in the Philippines on the 10th.

On September 11, 2011, the Japanese gave the United States a surprise at Pearl Harbor. Now that the anniversary is approaching, the Americans specially chose this day. 150,000 Allied forces cooperated with sea, sea, land and air to land in the Philippines.

This was undoubtedly a cold stick for the Japanese, and he was a little confused.

If the Japanese lose the biggest bargaining chip that can negotiate with the Americans is a trivial matter. If the Americans really join forces with China and destroy Japan first and then fight for the spoils, the Japanese will really not be able to hold on.

"Is there really a great sacrifice to the empire?" Fumiko Kome kept circling with the conditions proposed by the Americans. Even the Chinese army launched a large-scale attack on both sides of the Japanese mainland without considering it for the time being.

When the Chinese army launched a fierce attack, the Japanese, who were already familiar with China's encroachment strategy, thought that the Chinese were going to move forward a few more steps.

"It doesn't matter if the front line cannot resist the Chinese armored troops, but the Chinese never dared to swallow up our large tracts of territory, which would inevitably lead to early intervention by the Americans. Moreover, the Chinese erosion tactics left us enough time to recover all losses." Just yesterday, Fumiko Koehsu comforted Hirohito.

The Japanese also saw the contradiction between China and the United States thoroughly, which led to their plan to negotiate with the United States and try to take advantage of the troubled waters.

Therefore, while the Japanese ordered the front line to resist desperately, they did not urgently support the front line. They did not intend to suppress the resistance of the whole country, but they just bet on part of their own territory to stimulate the Americans.

Unexpectedly, the Americans' reaction to them was to continue to press forward, and they were about to come. What they didn't know was that China was coming to come this time.

Bad news from the front line kept coming, but in a short period of time, the Japanese still couldn't understand the strategic intentions of the Chinese, so they could only rely on negotiations with the United States.

Once the peace talks with the United States are successful, the Americans' oil, steel and even weapons may be open to the Japanese. With the huge wealth they have robbed, the Japanese who recalled all their main forces can quickly arm themselves, drive out the landed Chinese army, and may even have greater opportunities in the subsequent battle between China and the United States.

Therefore, after China blocked the way for peace talks, it would continue to negotiate with the Americans and step up negotiations. Otherwise, after the Philippines was succeeded by the United States, the Americans' conditions would be more harsh.

Fumiko Koe was thinking about how to add or delete conditions in the new round of peace talks with the Americans to make it more favorable. A sudden news surprised him and suddenly recognized most of the conditions proposed by the Americans.

...

"What? The Chinese landed in Wakasa Bay?" Hirohito and the ministers who were discussing were collectively stunned.

"This time, China is really here!" There was only such an idea left in their minds.

Wakasa Bay is roughly located in the central location of Japan, not far from Kyoto, Kobe, Osaka, and Nagoya. Once this place is lost, the narrow and long waist stuck in the island by China will be likely to be attacked by China. Even if the land connection between the east and west of the Japanese island is only cut off, it will make the Japanese uncomfortable enough.

"Where is our army? Where is our fleet?" Hirohito asked in a low voice.

Tojo Hideki's mouth moved, and he wanted to speak but stopped.

Although Wakasa Bay is a strategic location, it may also face a crazy counterattack in both east and west directions when attacking here. The Japanese never thought that China had such a big appetite and wanted to cut their waists.

They also considered that China would land on the island, and they had all located in places such as Shimonoseki and South Korea Peninsula, or Aomori Noida in Hokkaido, and even considered China to capture the Oki Islands and Sado Island. Only by clearing the obstacles to these overseas islands and using this springboard can we further attack the Japanese mid-waist. Who knew that the Chinese army rushed directly to Wakasa Bay.

"Where is our army? Where is our fleet?" Hirohito raised his voice and glared at Hideki Tojo.

"Go to support Kyushu!" Hideki Tojo didn't want to mention the main force he was consuming with the Americans, but just talked about the local defensive power.

The slightly deserted Hokkaido was occupied, and the Japanese were not in a hurry, but the economically developed Kyushu Island was attacked on a large scale by China, but the Japanese needed to rush to rescue them.

The fall of Kitakyushu, which had concentrated Hachiman Steel Factory, made the Japanese feel very distressed. If the Chinese army swept across the entire Kyushu Island, the Japanese's losses would definitely be no less than that of Americans' peace talks and extortion. Moreover, this is the important source of Japanese troops, and the hometown of many military bosses is here, so there is no need to be lost.

It doesn't matter if China slowly slams in Kitakyushu and Japan. It's hard for the Japanese to continue attacking on a large scale. Both the army and the navy are concentrated there.

Wakasa Bay, which had a small number of troops, was even weaker. After being attacked by the Chinese army that was raiding, it went down easily. (To be continued...)
