"Nani?" After listening to Cole's speech, Hirohito's face suddenly looked ugly, "Where did your words come from..."

“I’m talking about the Battle of Midway.”

When he heard Cole mention this, Hirohito couldn't help but blush: He knew the inside story of the battle record, exaggerating the enemy's losses and reducing the losses of his own side. Since the war started, this situation is everywhere. The rigid and rigorous Germans may not be accustomed to it, but he did not think it was a big problem. He nodded and signaled to Gu Zhengzhi to defend himself: "The statistics at the end of the battle may be relatively rough. This is because the battlefield is changing and the grassroots troops are too nervous during the battle. However, our country has no intention to conceal it deliberately, especially not to conceal it from allies."

"You may not have heard what I meant clearly. What I am saying is not ordinary, accidental error, but a complete directional error." Cole's attitude was very sincere, but his tone was very tough. He told the news that Gu Zhengzhi had completely defeated Midway Japan, and added, "This kind of notification cannot be described as error or rough, but is a complete lie. My country obtained the exact information from the US side and learned from them the actual situation of the Midway Battle. Because it was too distant from your country's notification, it was conducted on a special study, and the result was that it was full of doubts. Since Europe is facing a major threat from the US Navy, we must clearly understand and master the relevant information, so the final analysis only has one conclusion for your country..."

This was almost a swearing in person, but Cole knew the impact of his words. Sure enough, when he heard that all four Navy aircraft carriers were sunk, more than 300 aircraft were destroyed, and at least 100 well-trained elite pilots were killed, Gu Zhengzhi was at a loss and did not know how to defend himself. Hirohito's face was gloomy and could no longer hold back, as if fire was about to emerge in his eyes: "I don't know where the rumor was heard from?"

"Rumor?" Cole shook his head, "We also hope it is a rumor. After all, the Americans are the common enemy of both countries. Unfortunately, all this is true. If your Majesty does not believe it, just send someone to learn about it... The Navy Hospital is full of wounded soldiers after the battle, and those officers and soldiers who were not injured. The Navy has been detained in the hospital because of fear of spreading the news of failure. Our Ambassador to Japan has gone to the scene to verify this. Your Majesty may not know this because our Ambassador to the Army does not know it."

He heard the other party say so conclusively. Emperor Hirohito couldn't help but become suspicious. He knew that his subordinates had hidden a lot from him, and the battle situation was even more good news but not bad news. However, the Navy actually concealed such a major defeat and dared to organize a parade of Zhujie. He simply lost all his face. As for the conflict between the Army and the Navy, he knew it. If the Navy decided to even cover up the Emperor, the Army would be even more unlikely to get the exact news. He now believed that Cole's intelligence was largely true, but he had never been willing to say anything.

"If your country's initial battle report was correct, it should have occupied Midway Island now. Even if it doesn't, it will at least hurt the enemy. However, from the current various combat information, the United States firmly grasps it, and we have almost no one mentioning this name. So I think..."

Hirohito nodded, and a vague thought arose in his mind: the Navy actually deceived him to such a level? I wonder how many things they had hidden from him.

"The second thing that needs to be protested is that your country has caused a lot of losses to itself due to the leakage of passwords, and at the same time, it has also promptly disclosed my information."

Gu Zhengzhi finally recovered from the shock he had just now. He felt that his normal impression today was distorted. He asked repeatedly: "Where do you start with this?"

"Every time your country's ambassador to our country, Hiroshima, is heard by the British and American surveillance centers when sending a message through a unique Japanese password. They use the advantage of mastering the password to gain insight into a large amount of intelligence between the two countries." Kerr said, "We were not clear about the relevant situation at first, and only knew that we had cracked the relevant spy network. Of course, we believe that Ambassador Hiroshima had no malicious intentions, and he was completely deceived and exploited."

"This is impossible!" Gu Zhengzhi shouted directly with his neck, "I am in the Foreign Affairs Ministry, I know that this is one of our most proud achievements."

"Why do you think so? You should know that your country's cryptographic equipment was originally developed after the Engney code machine in our country. Even our country's telegram code was deciphered by Britain and the United States. Why can't your country's password be deciphered?" Cole added, "I can give an example. The reason for the failure of the Midway Battle is the leakage of secrets, and the way is the problem of passwords. When your country formulated a combat plan, you used a code name to refer to Midway. The United States had deciphered and repeatedly guessed whether it belonged to Midway. Later, in order to verify this matter, they deliberately sent a telegram about the damage to Midway seawater desalination equipment. Your country disclosed this information in the intelligence transmission and was completely exposed."

Gu Zhengzhi rolled his eyes: "I can't verify the situation you mentioned."

"You can check with the navy later. I believe they have archives." Cole said, "The head of state recently sent a commando to the UK to destroy relevant bases. In the process, we found a lot of relevant materials that were secretly deciphered."

After listening to Kerr's inside story so thoroughly, Hirohito and Komatsu felt that they could not defend themselves, so they could only listen quietly: In this way, the failure of Midway Island could be explained. If the Americans had not mastered the intelligence, they had won consecutive victories since the war and had been suppressing the United States to fight, how could the Imperial Navy that had been fighting in the United States failed?

"My country has always believed that password leakage is caused by the enemy's active decipherment, as well as the factors that betray secrets and betray the country's top leaders during the infiltration. My country has arrested many treason gangs in recent months. I think there may be such factors in your country after all, theoretically speaking, others may be betray Japan, but only His Majesty will not."

Gu Zhengzhi reminded him kindly: "Kor, be careful about your words. If you spread it, it will hinder the diplomatic relations between the two countries."

Hirohito did not refute and asked: "So you asked me to clear all the personnel just now."

"Yes, I have to be careful, even the less contact, the better. After all, your country has had two major cases of Hidemi Ozaki and Zorg. They are both people with close ties with high status and high status. Who dares to doubt them in normal times? As a foreigner, I can't distinguish who is a good person and who is a bad person..."

Hirohito had vaguely heard these two names, but the specific content was unclear, so he asked Komatsuyuki quietly. He heard that Ozaki Hidemi was the political secretary of former Prime Minister Komamoto and sold out a lot of information and kept silent. Only the veins on his forehead pounded, showing that he was very angry.

"For the sake of security and confidentiality, my country has fully activated new passwords under the order of the head of state last week. I have also brought the new machines randomly for your country's reference. According to the requirements of our government, the password will be changed every 6-8 months in the future. We suggest that both sides can strengthen cooperation in this field." Cole changed his tone, "Your Majesty, I am not here to provoke a military force today. As a close cooperative friendly country, it is not necessary to do so. The head of state still hopes to strengthen exchanges and cooperation with Japan. Just like the submarine that arrived in Europe not long ago, we can continue to strengthen cooperation in multiple fields."

Kerr gave an example of the submarine exchange between Germany and Japan. The operation from Germany to Japan was called "Lulu Transportation". The transportation materials were mainly new weapons and drawings, industrial products and technical materials; while the operation from Japan to Germany was called "anti-Lulu Transportation", and the materials were mainly made of tropical crops and industrial and mining products that Germany was urgently needed. Because the Japanese Navy has many large submarines and the transportation volume was larger, the main ones responsible for transportation were Japanese submarines.

On April 11, the Japanese Navy Endo Nobuo Nakasa commanded the I-30 submarine from Wugang, the Japanese naval base, carrying 3,300 pounds of mica, 1,542 pounds of insect paint, as well as drawings of the Type 91 aviation torpedo and an e14yi seaplane and other supplies through Singapore and Madagascar. It bypassed the Cape of Good Hope and successfully arrived at the Port of Lorient in France on August 5. After the submarine arrived in Europe, the submarine was warmly welcomed by the top leaders of the German Navy. The commander-in-chief Marshal Redel, the commander of the submarine force, the commander of the submarine force, and the Japanese naval officer in Germany, Colonel Tadao Yokoi, all came to Lorient to welcome the arrival of the I-30. The captain Nobuo Nakasa Endo was also awarded the I-30 Medal, and the I-30 was also partially modified by German experts.

"My head of state was deeply inspired by it and believed that it could directly establish maritime and air channels for your country to conduct necessary and urgent materials and personnel exchanges." Kerr first said that he took a plane to fly directly from Europe to Japan for more than 20 hours, and suggested further strengthening and improving it. "This air channel can solve the rapid transportation of personnel and drawings. For bulk materials, it is necessary to rely on submarine troops. For example, Germany has a relatively complete equipment system and has advantages in other technical equipment such as aviation engines and new tanks. It can provide related finished products and equipment to you. We lack resources, such as rubber, tungsten and other materials. We hope that your country can provide them and we can exchange them in the form of barter."

Kerr first talked about the equipment that this party could use to exchange. Of course, Hirohito and Kumatsuyuki didn't understand it, so they could only make a list for the time being, and then the specialized personnel of both sides carried out the requirements design and value valuation.
