Eisenhower shook his head: "It won't last long. The four divisions have less than 6 people. They were attacked by the Germans by sea and land. It didn't take long for them to be exhausted. Now Hitler has knocked on the door of the United States!"

Halsey gritted his teeth, "We can always buy some time. We can take this opportunity to adjust the defenses in the Caribbean Sea and strengthen the defenses of Haiti Island and Cuba Island. These two islands are the key to shielding the southern coastline of the United States and must be defended. !"

Chapter 0945 Korean War ([-]) Not Worth the Price

Amidst the roar of the train whistle, a brand new blue-steel locomotive pulled more than a dozen carriages into Shenyang Station.This train seems to be the most common military train among the trains leaving the pass during this period. There are more than a dozen carriages filled with heavily armed officers and soldiers of the National Defense Forces.It's just that the last two carriages are a bit different. Although they are ordinary carriages, you can see through the windows that the people sitting in these two carriages do not seem to be ordinary soldiers of the National Defense Forces, nor are they so crowded. The festival was even more empty, as if there were only a few people, and it seemed that some important person was sitting in it.

The scene on the platform was also different from the past. Military police wearing white military caps and armed with live ammunition guarded all the entrances and exits of the railway station, and there were many guard posts on the platform.There was also a group of generals and officers standing on the platform, stretching their necks and looking around, as if they were coming to greet someone at the station, and the leader of this group of officers was Marshal Bai Chongxi, the commander of the Beiyang Front Army of the Chinese National Defense Army!

Bai Chongxi stood there calmly and reservedly, with the demeanor of a general, but if you look closely at his face, you can still find a trace of anxiety.It wasn't because he didn't have confidence in the battle plan he had reported for landing on the Korean peninsula, but because he was very disturbed by the summary of the situation on the Atlantic battlefield he received this morning.The Germans have already captured several of the main Virgin Islands and have made a successful amphibious landing at the port of Ponce in the south of Puerto Rico!It is said that the US defenders on the island are shrinking towards San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico. It seems that it is only a matter of time before the island is occupied by Germany.At the same time, the Germans also captured Iceland controlled by the Free Britain, and it was only a matter of time before they attacked Greenland.In this way, the Americans will soon face the dilemma of being attacked on three sides, and once this country fails in the War of Resistance Against Germany, China will have to face the pressure of the entire world alone!

The train neighed again, and slowly drove into the platform. Amidst the rolling steam, Luo Yaoguo was wearing a full-fledged military uniform of the National Defense Forces Marshal, leading the most eye-catching blond beauty in the National Defense Forces, Major General Natalie?Leshinskaya's jade hand came down surrounded by a group of entourage.Luo Yaoguo seemed to have seen Bai Chongxi on the platform, and walked over with big strides. The two saluted each other, and then clasped their fists together in a Chinese manner.Bai Chongxi took the hand of his powerful brother and said with a smile: "Brother Fuwen, I finally hoped for you! The situation is ever-changing now. Whether this world war can be finally won and establish China's century-old national destiny depends on It's been a few months." He sighed, and walked out side by side with Luo Yaoguo, and asked in a low voice as he walked, "Fuwen, why did you stay in Beiping for so long this time? There are rumors outside Said that you were with the Russian Empress in Beiping, is there such a thing?"

"Of course it's not all with Anas, and even if we're with her, it's mainly for business." Luo Yaoguo smiled indifferently: "Could it be that those newspapers are chewing their tongues again? The news control is just a little looser, we These military leaders are not going to have a good time."

Bai Chongxi listened to Luo Yaoguo's words, and said with a smile: "These are small details, there is no big deal, the key now is the war, as long as the war is won, even if you marry the Russian Empress, it will be a good story." Luo Yaoguo smiled: "Win the war Do you have any questions? Don’t you think Brother Jiansheng has the confidence to wipe out the Korean and Japanese troops?”

"I'm worried about the United States. If they can't stand it, even if we take down North Korea, I'm afraid we won't have time to destroy Japan."

Hearing this, Luo Yaoguo didn't take it seriously, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Yankees are not that weak, and after all, the Germans crossed the five thousand to six thousand kilometers wide Atlantic expedition, and their momentum cannot last long. Although they gained a firm foothold in the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico this time, they are still too far away from the core territory of the United States. It is impossible for the Germans to rely on strategic air strikes to destroy the industrial strength of the United States, so the war in the Atlantic Ocean will definitely continue for a long time. We There is plenty of time to take care of Japan slowly. Brother Jiansheng, in order for our country to occupy a favorable position in the game with the United States and Germany in the next hundred years, it is best to eliminate Japan. You know, after such an opportunity But it’s very difficult to have again, so we must grasp it!”

Bai Chongxi nodded silently. Although he didn't quite understand Luo Yaoguo's policy towards Japan, as a senior general of the national defense force and a core figure in the Luo family, he could only obey Luo Yaoguo's will and turn this war into a war of annihilation.Luo Yaoguo took a deep breath: "Brother Jiansheng, the ultimate goal this time is to destroy Japan, and we must do our best to achieve it. The key to destroying Japan is to kill a large number of its vital forces, especially young men. Youth is the future of a country. The country will be gone. Let this Korean peninsula be the burial place for more than 1000 million young Japanese men.” He said the last few words very softly, but Bai Chongxi could hear them clearly. Sighing, he agreed: "Brother Yu knows it well, brother Fuwen doesn't need to say more."

Luo Yaoguo smiled with satisfaction when he heard the words: "Brother Jiansheng, the headquarters will fully support the Beiyang Front Army to achieve this goal. You can rest assured about this. Moreover, the Air Force's Yan-10 heavy bomber has successfully conducted four test flights, and it will be ready by the beginning of next year. It's finalized... So, we just need to surround the main force of Japan in North Korea, and then use that secret weapon, we are not afraid of their stubborn resistance!"

While talking, the two got into the waiting bulletproof car, and were escorted by two Min-27 armored vehicles.Luo Yaoguo's arrival created such a big momentum, of course the Japanese and Korean Army Command was informed of this information immediately.

……

"It's finally coming, it's finally starting..." All the staff officers in the Korean Army Headquarters in Seoul gathered in front of the huge electric sand table, discussing a lot, and everyone looked serious.They also already know that North Korea's gains and losses are related to the rise and fall of the Japanese Empire. If the Chinese really let the Chinese control the peninsula, they can blow Japan back to the Stone Age with planes!In order to keep North Korea, the Japanese military formed a powerful North Korean army.The strength of this North Korean army, including the strength of the original Kwantung Army, plus the North Korean garrison troops, mobilized a large number of new divisions and aviation troops from the country.

By the beginning of November 1939, the North Korean Army could use a total of 11 infantry divisions, four tank divisions, three independent tank brigades, ten independent heavy artillery brigades, and one cavalry group (equivalent to a division Regiment), five flying division regiments, two naval aviation air teams, and four fortress garrison teams.The total force has reached nearly 32 million!

在飞机坦克方面，军部计划配属给机甲军的零式突击战车和97式突击战车已经提前全部到位，又用被机甲军淘汰下来的97式中战车组建了三个独立战车旅团，总共有坦克、突击战车、自行火炮1400余辆；飞机也拼凑了近1800架，其中的300架零式战斗机拥有同Fw-190一战的能力，还有500架99式神风特攻飞机对试图接近朝鲜西海岸的中国舰队威胁巨大；其余的96式战斗机、97式战斗机、97式轻型爆击机、97式重型爆击机等飞机也具有相当的战斗力。

In addition to strong military strength and a large number of technical equipment, the North Korean army also has a line of defense on the Yalu River that has been in operation for many years.This line of defense has been built since the end of the September 1930th War from 1931 to 9.18, and it has not been fully completed so far.The main body of this line of defense is more than 1000 kilometers, and the main part is developed along the Yalu River and Tumen River on the border between China and Japan (North Korea). It cost more than 10 billion Japanese (of course not as valuable as in history), and the amount of earthwork reached 500 million. cubic meter!In the area about 150 kilometers away from the east and west ends of the Yalu River line of defense, two fortification areas were built, and four permanent forts with armored forts were built. The fortress-style defense system suitable for ring defense also stores all the materials needed by the defenders to maintain operations for 12 months.A total of about 2600 permanent fortifications for various purposes have been built throughout the defense line, with a density of 2 per kilometer of front.The thickness of the roof and walls of the strongest reinforced concrete fortifications reaches 3.5 meters, and the armor thickness of the armored turrets reaches 300mm!The main gun of the armored turret is modified from a 14-inch naval gun!The range can reach 15 kilometers in China!

Before the Western European Campaign in 1938, this solid line of defense claimed to be able to compete with the French Maginot Line, and it was absolutely impossible for the Chinese army to capture it!However, after the Sino-German coalition forces easily defeated France with the Maginot Line in the Western European campaign, the Japanese confidence in this "Oriental Maginot" was greatly reduced.

"There are only 1300 permanent fortifications in the nearly 2600-kilometer line of defense, which is really too few! Moreover, the defensive focus of the line of defense is only concentrated on the east and west ends, and the fortifications in most of the middle areas are very weak. Before the outbreak of the World War, even the Korean Red Army The guerrillas can sneak over, how can this kind of defense resist the Chinese armored forces?"

"According to the experience of the Battle of Ardennes, the Chinese armored forces can pass through mountains and hills. The Ardennes Highlands in Europe cannot stop Chinese and German tanks, and the mountainous areas in northern North Korea cannot do the same. Now it is basically certain that the Chinese must They will break through from the weak center of the Yalu River defense line, and then use their powerful armored forces to penetrate the side and rear of the Yalu River defense line, trying to surround the main force of our Korean army... With the powerful assault capabilities of the Chinese armored forces, as long as they are willing to pay a certain price It should be possible!"

"And the air superiority is also in the hands of the Chinese! Their bombers have put great pressure on our logistics line these days! All transportation and troop movements can only be carried out quietly at night, even the lights of the trucks Don't dare to drive... It can be imagined that once the Chinese armored forces break through the middle of the Yalu River line of defense, we will not be able to mobilize the armored forces to seal the gap in time, and the so-called mobile defense is simply impossible!"

“就算机甲军及时到位又有什么用？目前已经发现的中国装甲部队就有10个师！根据德国人所提供的中国装甲师编制表，10个中国装甲师至少拥有4000辆坦克、强击火炮！其中还包括600辆强大的四号坦克！机甲军的1000多辆坦克根本应付不过来，开上去也是送死！”

"It is necessary to strengthen the defense in the middle of the defense line, and it must be equipped with a sufficient number of anti-tank artillery, lay a large number of anti-tank mines, dig anti-tank trenches, and build anti-tank firepower strongholds! If it can be equipped with hundreds of heavy anti-tank guns It would be even better."

"Don't even think about heavy anti-aircraft artillery, the local air defense is not enough... Chinese bombers have been visiting Kyushu every night since the beginning of November! Last night, more than 11 Fw-80 bombers went to Tokyo to drop bombs. I heard that And a bomb fell on the Imperial Palace in Tokyo!"

"But apart from heavy anti-aircraft guns, what else can we use to deal with the Chinese Panzer IV? If we can't beat their Panzer IV, the Yalu River defense line cannot be defended!"

"You can use the flesh and blood of our Great Japanese Imperial Army! North Korea must be defended. The Yalu River line of defense is the key to defending North Korea, so we cannot retreat a single step. Our North Korean army can only fight with the determination of all members! Including us staff officers also You must leave your life on the banks of the Yalu River!"

"Let our North Korean army use the lives of millions of people to resist the Chinese armored forces! Organize a special attack team, even if 100 lives are exchanged for a tank, we must block the Chinese armored forces!"

These staff officers of the Japanese and Korean Army discussed for a whole morning, and the last topic actually turned to the suicide attack and the jade fragments of all members.It seems that the Korean Army and the entire Japanese Empire have reached the end of their ropes, and everyone has no choice but to break their cans!Regarding such emotions, Ishihara Wanji, who had just been appointed as the chief of staff of the Korean Army, could only lament in his heart: Is the Japanese Empire really going to be defeated by the Japanese soldiers of his generation?He took a sneak peek at Neiji Komura, the commander-in-chief was sitting there looking at the map, his expression was still calm, as if he had a plan in mind, but Ishihara could still feel a trace of helplessness and panic, it seems that the general is making calculations in his heart With the evolution of the future war situation.

In a trance, Ishihara seemed to see thousands of Chinese tanks painted with the blue sky and white sun marking roaring across the thick ice-covered Yalu River Jiangmen, easily breaking through the thin Japanese defense line!Afterwards, countless Japanese officers and soldiers carried bombs on their bodies, shouted the slogan "The Emperor is onboard", and rushed towards the Chinese tank group without hesitation!

Suddenly, the muzzles and machine guns of the Chinese tanks began to flash fire, and streams of red fire formed a dense fire net in the air, covering all the charging Japanese officers and soldiers. Groups of Japanese soldiers were killed, and one after another Wave after wave charged until the entire battlefield was buried with corpses... Could this be the end of the millions of loyal and brave officers and soldiers of the entire North Korean army?

So what will happen to the Japanese Empire and its 7000 million citizens?After the destruction of the Korean army, the Korean peninsula will of course become a springboard for China to conquer Japan.Blinding planes will take off from airports in southern North Korea and wipe all cities in Japan off the map!Turn Japan into an agricultural country completely.Then, millions of Chinese troops armed to the teeth will land on the Japanese archipelago... Although all the people will fight to the end under the leadership of His Majesty the Emperor!However, without an industrial base and without foreign aid, the Japanese Empire, which could only rely on crude weapons to resist, could not escape the fate of defeat in the end!

At this moment, another extremely tragic scene emerged in Ishihara's mind: Emperor Hirohito was wearing a white mourning dress, kneeling on the ground in humiliation, weeping and holding the Heavenly Congyun Sword, Bachi Qiong Quyu and Bachi The ruler mirror is held high above the head.In front of the Emperor, Chinese Marshal Luo Yaoguo was riding on a red Arabian horse with a smirk all over his face!A group of senior generals of the Japanese army and navy, including Ishihara, knelt in several rows under the bayonets of the Chinese occupying army. Everyone wore the same white kimono as the emperor, with a bottle of sake and a piece of white paper in front of them. , and a dagger without a handle.This is clearly the tool used by samurai to cut seppuku...

"My lords!" Neiji Okamura slapped the table violently, waking Ishihara out of his own thoughts. "The war has just begun. The Japanese Empire has not yet been defeated, and it is impossible to be defeated! Although our industry is not as good as China's, resources are not as good as China's, weapons and equipment are not as good as China's, but the spirit of the warriors of the imperial army is something that the Chinese do not possess Yes! Tens of millions of people are united as one, and the courage to die for the country is something that the Chinese do not have!" Okamura's voice was a little more tragic: "Gentlemen, although Japan The total population of the empire is less than one-sixth of China's, but we can afford to suffer several times their casualties! Because, if the Japanese empire loses this war, there will be no future! The Chinese can completely let go Go to Japan and enjoy everything they have obtained from this world war! Therefore, they will not be willing to pay too heavy a price. This is the key to our survival and to preserve our vitality for the revenge of the future empire!"

The supreme commander of the Japanese and Korean Army seemed to have seen the bleak prospects of the Japanese Empire in this war before the real decisive battle began.His determination is only to make the Chinese pay more casualties, and make the Chinese feel that it is not worth paying such a high price to destroy Japan and give up... As for whether we can keep the rich Australia, the Philippines, and the Japanese East Indies, Gang The village seems to have lost its illusions.

Chapter 0946 Korean War ([-]) New Japan

South Australia, Forrest.

The faint sound of cannons drifted over from the Great Australian Bight.It was a Polish Legion-class armored ship and an Admiral Hipper-class heavy cruiser of the Chinese bombarding the Japanese positions one after another.

Field Marshal Zhao Xianggong Zhenyan was in full military uniform, leading a group of subordinates, standing on the roof of his former enemy headquarters, holding his binoculars and looking motionlessly at the direction of the battlefield to the west.

The uncle of the Japanese Emperor Hirohito got his wish to be named a Marshal because of his illustrious achievements in conquering East Australia. However, before he had time to taste the joy of being named a Marshal, a huge crisis hit the "New Marshal" who had just raised the flag of the sun. Japan" is coming!The full name of the so-called New Japan is the New Japan State of the Great Japanese Empire, which is the original British Australia.And this Asaka Palace King Yanyan is the first, and maybe the last governor-general of New Japan Prefecture.Because, the Chinese army occupying Western Australia has launched an attack on Forrest, an important town in western New Japan, since late last month!

As soon as the fight over Forrest started, King Asakamiya Jinhiko immediately moved the former enemy headquarters to the front line and personally supervised the battle.At the same time, a large number of troops and supplies were transferred from Xinjing (Sydney), the capital of New Japan, to this inconspicuous town day and night. Fighting to the death on the Japanese border, defending against the enemy outside the country's gate.However, when the new Japanese garrison was busy dispatching troops and preparing to start the war, some contradictory news and orders came from Japan, which made Asaka Palace King Jinyan and his headquarters staff Feel a little at a loss.

Case A in the "Special No. 10 Operation Plan" formulated by the original military department required the new Japanese garrison to deploy its main force on the long and narrow Birana Plain, south of the Great Victoria Desert and north of the Great Australian Bight. The posture of the Chinese Occupation of Australia.The deployment of the new Japanese garrison was also based on this plan.However, on October 19, the second day after the Japanese base camp announced the victory of the "South China Sea-Philippines Battle", the military department issued a "Second Case" to defend New Japan and repel the Chinese army in the border defense battle. " Guidance.

However, King Asakamiya Jinhiko was a little puzzled. The original "Case B" in the new Japanese garrison's combat plan was to retreat the main force to Flinders Ridge in South Australia and stand by for reinforcements.Instead of fighting a decisive battle with the Chinese army with powerful armored forces in the undefended Birana Plain and the Great Victoria Desert!

For this reason, Asaka Miya Jinhiko successively sent power to the Tokyo General Staff Headquarters, explaining the unfavorable factors of defensive operations in the Birana Plain and the Great Victoria Desert.However, the Tokyo side did not reply for a long time. It was not until November 11 that a statement of the situation was sent to the new Japanese Garrison in the name of the new Chief of the Army Staff Headquarters, Prince Kanin Gongzaihito.

Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen informed the New Japan Garrison Headquarters in his briefing that the base camp judged based on the actual information it had, that the main force of the Chinese armored forces had been secretly transferred to Manchuria and was preparing to invade the Korean peninsula.The Chinese armored forces in Australia are likely to be bluffing suspects. Therefore, with the strength of the new Japanese garrison troops, it is entirely possible to repel the Chinese army in the defense of the Birana Plain.However, in the second half of this statement, Prince Xianyuangong Zaijin asked the new Japanese garrison to prepare for the defense of Flinders Ridge, and at least two to three divisions should be dispatched to Flinders Ridge first. arm.Heavy troops should also be deployed around Xinjing and completely fortified. If the situation changes, the new Japanese garrison will use Xinjing as the last stronghold for defense.In addition, all major ports in Eastern Australia, except Xinjing Port (Jackson Port), must be completely destroyed to prevent Chinese troops from landing...

In the end, Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen told Asaka Palace King Jinyan in an extremely solemn tone that New Japan State is the last hope of the Japanese Empire!If the battle on the Korean Peninsula unfortunately fails, His Majesty the Emperor may also leave Tokyo and come to Xinjing to take command. At that time, New Japan will be the base for the revival of the empire!

After seeing such a statement, Marshal Asakamiya Jinhiko faintly felt that the future war situation was quite bad, and at the same time knew that he and the New Japan Garrison had a heavy responsibility.But when he counted the troops in his hands, he felt that he was really not sure, so he asked for reinforcements like the base camp.But what he didn't expect was that his request for help was quickly rejected, and the base camp instructed him to use limited troops to maintain the situation in New Japan State as much as possible, and wait for the entire world situation to change in favor of Japan.

At this time, the Asaka Palace King Yanyan and the staff officers of the New Japan Garrison Army have heard some rumors that there are considerable differences among the top leaders in Japan regarding the future of the country.The opinions of some high-level officials are as mentioned by Prince Hanin Gong Zairen in the statement, to use the so-called New Japan Prefecture as the final base of the empire, in case of defeat in Korea (this possibility is very high) , Japan is about to relocate the whole country!Not only the emperor and the government will move to Australia, but a considerable number of citizens will also follow the government to move to Australia to settle down. Even... large-scale immigration operations should start immediately, so as not to be caught off guard.Right now, high-ranking figures in Japan who hold this view are also known as the "New Japan School."

This idea is certainly good, but it is not so easy to realize.Leaving aside anything else, just the large relocation of tens of millions or even tens of millions of citizens is not something that Japan's current maritime capacity can accomplish.Moreover, Eastern Australia is not capable of providing food to feed tens of millions of Japanese. Due to the massacre of white Australians by the Japanese army during the invasion of Eastern Australia, most of the white Australian residents either died or fled to Western Australia. refugees or Chinese.And East Australia is now a scene of barren fields, abandoned cities, and social production has almost completely stopped. On the vast land of millions of square kilometers, the only human beings seem to be the fully armed Japanese army and less than 10 people. Japan's "pioneering people".

Therefore, most of the high-level figures in Japan belong to the so-called old Japanese school.They advocated that after the Korean army was defeated by the Chinese army, they could consider handing over the New Japan Prefecture as a condition for peace with China, so as to preserve the security of the Japanese mainland.However, if you want to use New Japan State as a bargaining chip with China, you also need to temporarily keep this territory, but the importance of New Japan State has dropped significantly, and there is no need to maintain the military advantage over the Chinese and Australian forces. You only need to delay the opponent's attack The goal can be achieved... At least judging from the current offensive strength of the Chinese army, this goal does not seem to be difficult to achieve.

I don't know if it was because the Sunda Strait was blocked by the Japanese army on Java Island that caused logistical difficulties for the Chinese Australian Front.The attack of the Chinese army seems to be a little weak. After fighting for almost a month, the Japanese army on the front line of Forrester neither saw the Chinese planes covering the sky, nor was it crushed into meat by the legendary invincible No. 10000 tanks. Even the Chinese The bombardment of the army was not very violent. The shells of various calibers that fell on the Japanese defense zone did not exceed [-] rounds every day. Until noon yesterday, a Chinese fleet suddenly appeared in the Great Australian Bay and began to bombard it with large-caliber naval guns. The frontline position of the Japanese army made Asaka Palace King Jinyan and the Japanese army on the front line feel a little pressure.

"Your Excellency the Marshal."

Sawada Shigeru's voice came from behind him. He is the current deputy of the General Staff Headquarters, and was sent by Marshal Prince Kanin Gongzaihito, Chief of Staff, to the front line of New Japan State to inspect military affairs.King Zhaoxiang Gong Yanyan did not look back, still silently looking at the west, Zetian walked over slowly and stood beside Chaoxiang Palace King Yanyan.He came all the way to see King Chaoxiang Gong Zhenyan this time, in fact, he was the lobbyist of Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen, the chief of staff, and his purpose was to win the support of Chaoxiang Palace Zhenyan King, so as to help Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen's "new The "Japanese faction" won the struggle against the "old Japanese faction".

"Your Excellency Marshal, it seems that the military department's previous analysis of the deployment of the Chinese army has made a major mistake. Their main force is deployed in Manchuria instead of Western Australia." Shigeru Zetian was not sure what the uncle in front of him was thinking, so he had to beat around the bush try it out.

"Your Excellency, I also agree with Mr. Zetian. The main force of the Chinese army is not in Australia, and their armored troops have not shown up until now, which shows the problem. It seems that Luo Yaoguo's wishful thinking is to capture North Korea, and then use North Korea as a springboard to invade The mainland of the empire, forcing Tokyo to cede the New Japan State!"

The speaker was General Hisao Tani, the commander of the Second Army of the Japanese Army. Right now, he is commanding 20 troops in eight divisions to defend the Sino-Japanese border in southern Australia. The entire line of defense extends from the Great Victoria Desert to the Great Australian Bight.During twenty days of fighting, his second army actually lost a major position, with less than 1 casualties!Of course, such a victory was publicized by the Japanese authorities as a great victory, and Hisao Tani himself was somewhat elated.

"Oh, does Mr. Gu have any ideas?" Chaoxiang Palace Zhenyan asked unhurriedly.

"Yes," Hisao Tani also walked to King Jinyan of Asaka Palace, and said loudly, "I believe that the empire is currently unable to take care of the three battlefields of North Korea, the Philippines, and Australia at the same time. If the troops are dispersed, they will only be defeated by the Chinese army! Therefore, it is necessary to highlight the key battlefields and abandon the secondary battlefields. The key point that the Empire must ensure is the New Japan State! The total area of ​​the New Japan State exceeds 450 million square kilometers, and its various resources are 10 times richer than the Empire itself and North Korea. Moreover, it is far away from the mainland of China, and there is no main force of the Chinese army. It is the base for the future revival of the empire. Even if you give up the mainland, you can't give up New Japan State!"

Hisao Tani had actually been persuaded by Shigeru Sawada, and now he took the initiative to act as a lobbyist. After saying this, he looked at King Jinhiko Asaka with an expression of expectation. Asuka still frowned and did not speak. The staff officers of the new Japanese Garrison Headquarters nodded in agreement.
