    Almost at the same time, the Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia, USA.

    Marshall, the Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army, welcomed a heavyweight guest, and this heavyweight guest was Lord Dill, Chief of Staff of the British Army.

    After more than four hours of secret discussions, the two sides finally reached a consensus.

    Sir Dill said: "General Marshall, may I take it that the United States and Britain have reached a consensus?"

    "Oh, yes." Marshall said in a very affirmative tone, "Europe first, Asia second, that's no problem."

    "Wallygood." Sir Dill nodded happily and continued, "With this consensus between the United States and Britain, the next thing will become very simple. What do you think, General Marshall?"

    "Yes." Marshall nodded and said, "The American war machine cannot be started at once. This will take time. The British Empire also needs time to mobilize personnel and materials from various colonies, so we should not overly stimulate Germany, Italy and Japan now.  The Axis Alliance should be allowed to concentrate on dealing with the Soviet Union and China."

    "The population and supplies of the Axis Alliance are limited after all."

    "Even if they defeat the Soviet Union and China in the end, their own consumption will be very serious."

    "In order to increase the consumption of the Axis Alliance, we can also provide appropriate assistance to China and the Soviet Union."

    "With the assistance from the United States and Britain, the Soviet Union and China should be able to persist for at least three more years."

    "By that time, the American war machine will have been fully activated, and the manpower and material resources of various colonies in the British Empire will have been concentrated. By then, in a decisive battle with the Axis Alliance, the alliance will have a greater chance of winning!"

    Sir Dill said: "But, General Marshall, there is a question that you have thought about?"

    "What's the problem?" Marshall asked, "Sir, you want to say that the Japanese army may send troops to Southeast Asia?"

    "Yes." Sir Dill nodded and said, "The Japanese have always been short-sighted. This possibility exists. If Japan does not send troops to the Far East, but instead sends troops to Southeast Asia, what will the United States do?"

    "We have thought about this issue," Marshall said. "As long as the Japanese do not go too far, stop advancing after occupying the Indochina Peninsula and the East Indies, and do not target the Philippines and Australia, we  There is no need to over-stimulate them, then they may still turn around and head north to send troops to the Far East."

    Speaking of this, Marshall added: "In short, our American principle is to put Europe before Asia. In Asia, as long as it does not involve the core interests of the United States, any concessions can be considered."

    Sir Dill said: "Then we can rest assured."

    In Japan, Tokyo.

    Hirohito is summoning Tojo Hideki and other military and political officials to hold an imperial meeting.

    There was only one topic at the meeting: When will the war against the United States begin?

    Although the issue has been decided, Navy Minister Mitsumasa Yoneuchi decided to give it a final try.

    Mitsumasa Yoneuchi said: "Your Majesty, and gentlemen, have you read Yamamoto-kun's report?"

    Just three days ago, Commander of the Naval Combined Fleet Yamamoto Isoroku submitted an analysis report to the cabinet. This report elaborated on the current situation in the world and proposed countermeasures that Japan should take.

    Yamamoto Isoroku firmly believes that Japan should not send troops to Southeast Asia, but should first send troops to the Far East.

    Only by first forcing the Soviet Union to surrender can China surrender. Only when China and the Soviet Union surrender can the Axis Alliance headed by Germany, Japan and Italy have enough manpower and material resources to engage in a strategic decisive battle with the Anglo-Saxon Alliance headed by the United States and Britain.  Otherwise, the Axis Alliance's chances of winning can be said to be slim.

    Zhong Yi actually said something wrong. Japan actually still has several strategic-level talents.

    Not only Usami Takashi saw this, but Okamura Neji, Ishihara Kanji and Yamamoto Isoroku also saw this. However, Okamura Neji and Ishihara Kanji did not say it, and only Yamamoto Isoroku submitted it to the cabinet.  reported.

    Hearing that Mitsumasa Yoneuchi once again brought up the issue of Kitakami, Hirohito's face immediately fell.

    With the war imminent, the most taboo thing is discord, and Yoneuchi Mitsumasa actually wants to bring it up again.

    At that moment, Hirohito winked at Tojo Hideki, who immediately retorted loudly: "Why did Yonei-kun still bring up the idea of ??going north? Didn't we discuss it repeatedly at the beginning?"

    "Then it was the beginning, and this is now." Mitsumasa Yoneuchi said, "The world situation is different.Well, the United States did not come out of isolationism at first, but now that the United States has passed the Concession Act, its willingness to participate in international affairs has been unprecedentedly high, so the empire must also make targeted changes.  "

    Tojo Hideki said: "Precisely because the United States has given up isolationism and has a tendency to participate in international affairs, the empire must seize the time and send troops to Southeast Asia!"

    Mitsumasa Yoneuchi said: "What is the truth? The correct logic is, shouldn't it be easier first and then harder? Taking advantage of the good opportunity that the United States and Britain are still implementing appeasement policies towards the empire, first solve the Soviet Union, then solve China, and then concentrate all efforts  Strength, for a final showdown with the Anglo-Saxon bloc?¡±

    "That's just your wishful thinking." Tojo said flatly, "In fact, there is no appeasement policy at all. The U.S. Congress has officially passed the Concession Act, and will soon implement military material assistance to the Soviet Union and China. In other words,  This is basically the U.S. and British governments using the hands of China and the Soviet Union to consume the power of the Axis Alliance. If we concentrate all our efforts on dealing with China and the Soviet Union, we will fall into their trap! So we must free up our hands to defeat the United States and Britain first.  !¡±

    Mitsumasa Yoneuchi said: "It is too reckless to rush to war with the United States and Britain before solving the Soviet Union and China!"

    Tojo Hideki said: "It is stupid to blindly entangle with China and the Soviet Union and wait for the United States to activate its domestic war machine! Yonei-kun may not have enough understanding of the industrial manufacturing base of the United States, so let me tell you now, once the United States lets  If we start the domestic industry at full speed, the consequences will be very serious!"

    "So what we have to do now is to expel their navy from the Pacific and burn the war to the west coast of the United States before the American industrial machine starts to work! Only in this way can it be possible to stop the American industrial machine from starting.  It is possible to cripple the United States, and then it is possible to win this battle for national destiny!"

    "It's too reckless." Mitsumasa Yoneuchi said, "We should be more stable."

    "Be more stable?" Tojo Hideki said, "You don't call it steady, you call it stupid!"

    Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Hirohito finally interrupted: "That's enough!"

    Tojo Hideki and Yoneuchi Mitsumasa obediently shut their mouths and stopped talking.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
