Chapter 698 Tojo Hideki, who lost his temper in the Navy

Just as the German army was carrying out a fire-like attack on the Port of Abbas in Iran under the command of Guderian, the battle between the Japanese and the US troops in the Pacific was also very fierce.

Theoretically, the biggest natural enemy of an aircraft carrier should be the incoming aviation troops, especially the air force that was attacked by the enemy.

However, in the Pacific War that began in November 1943, no matter how many Japanese aircraft it sent to launch various surprise attacks on US aircraft carriers, it was impossible to cause any damage to the US aircraft carrier group, and even suffered heavy casualties.

However, such losses are not the most troublesome thing for the Japanese Navy. What makes them even more troublesome is the leapfrog tactic that began to be implemented in June 1943.

It is the proposed by MacArthur, Halsey and others that the US military was carrying out amphibious landing operations under the cover of the huge air force when the troops on the Pacific battlefield were limited; that is, the US military's amphibious landing forces did not adopt the strategy of regaining all islands, but instead used the jumping strategy to avoid the strong Japanese defenses, and carried out amphibious landings on islands with weak Japanese defenses, and then used the strong engineering capabilities and material supply of the US military to quickly establish advance airports and ports, and then blocked the bypassed Japanese strongholds.

Faced with the US military's regaining an island, they immediately jumped over the next island; and then captured the next island. For the Japanese army, the jumping tactics implemented by MacArthur and others were definitely the fatal weakness of the Chinese and Japanese army.

Because once the US military completes the leapfrog tactic and deploys airports on the islands occupied by the US military, the US military's B-29 and even the B-24 bomber groups can fly to the remaining Japanese islands, and even the Japanese mainland for bombing.

Therefore, once the Japanese army loses places such as Mariana and Biak, the Japanese army will die faster on the Pacific battlefield and will be faster and faster than defeat.

So whether it is Ozawa, Kusato, Toyota, Koga, Kakuda, Fukuruman, and other senior naval figures, as well as the Japanese base camp, they are as anxious as the ants on the hot pan, and they plan to ensure the absolute defense of the national defense circle to the death, which will never be broken by the US military.

So when the Second Battle of Makin Atoll was launched, especially when the troops deployed by Japan were about to be wiped out, when Hideki Tojo, who was far away in Tokyo, received such unfavorable news, he could no longer sit still.

In one day, Shimada Shintaro, Okaku Seinho, Hasegawa Kiyoshi, Hyotogo, Toyota Juntake, Toyota Satojiro, Fushimimiya Hirokyo, Okada Keisuke, Koga Fengichi, Takahashi Miyaki, Takahashi Takeo and others from the headquarters of the Navy sent more than 50 urgent telegrams to inquire about the situation of the battle.

Unfortunately, he was even furious about his impatientness and furiousness. The generals of the Navy headquarters were very sleek in reporting good news but not bad news.

At least in the major defeat, he and the Japanese base did not report it in a timely manner.

Tojo Hideki was also very relieved about the Navy's actions, but when the German army gave Tojo Hideki the truth about his affairs at Chen Yanlong's instructions, he became restless again.

But he had no confidant in the navy, and even if he asked Fushimi Miyaki Hiroki and others, he could not ask about the situation, so Hideki Tojo could only communicate and communicate with the German army assigned by Chen Yanlong.

He also hopes that the other party can have a good solution to give him good suggestions to solve the second battle of the US military in Makin Atoll and other places.

The German army's reply was to speed up the new weapons and equipment they sold to the Japanese army and transported them to their hands as soon as possible, and let Hideki Tojo immediately dispatch more troops to accept the weapons and equipment.

And after the Japanese army possesses the weapons and equipment, they will be able to counterattack the US army.

Even if they can't beat the US military, they can still cause serious damage to the US military, causing them to suffer heavy casualties and give the Japanese army a breath.

Of course, it was just a breather, because if President Roosevelt had not supported most of his troops, weapons and equipment to the European battlefield and the Eastern Front battlefield, the Japanese army would have been defeated by the US and the British army and the Soviet army and fled in panic.

When Hideki Tojo received the reply from the German army sent by Chen Yanlong, he also rushed to dispatch troops.

As for the navy, he couldn't bear his temper. He cursed at the other party and cursed a large number of naval generals for a long time before he stopped.

Because of his anger and insult, the navy generals only reacted coldly and did not take him seriously.

"Baga! These damn navy!"

"You guys wait and see, I must give you something nice!"

"I actually concealed such an important military information to me without reporting it. This is the rhythm that will kill me!"

In the end, Tojo Hideki could only kick the table at his own home and throw things to lose his temper to vent his temper.
