Jagged Germany

  In Tokyo in late January, the weather is very cold. A lot of snow accumulated on the roofs, and even some people's houses were crushed and collapsed. The ground in the street is muddy and dirty everywhere.

  The Tokyo of this era is not the Tokyo of half a century later. Because almost all of the gross national product is used to develop military power, this makes the island government's investment in other areas naturally less. Even the government is so indebted that it is on the verge of collapse. If it weren't for the continuous support of the Americans and the frenzied exploitation of ordinary people by the island government, the island government would have been unable to sustain it for a long time.

  After failing to seek to join the Allies, the island government also gave up those unrealistic thoughts, continued to be a dog to the Americans, and began to mobilize, preparing to join the war.

  The elites of the island government are very clear that after Germany rejects their request, it will be impossible for the two sides to live in peace, and both sides will be rivals. Therefore, the only thing they can do is to do their best to participate in this war and win this war so that they can win the war. Only in this way can the island country continue to exist and develop better and stronger! Once Germany wins the war, in order to stabilize its status as the world's hegemon, it will definitely destroy the island country. Therefore, the island nation has no other choice.

  As a country with a population of more than 70 million and completed industrialization, the strength of the island country is beyond doubt. Although the tactics used by their army are still in the last world war, the weapons and equipment are not very advanced. However, their fearless will to fight still makes other countries panic. Once the fighting power of the island country is fully released, it will undoubtedly be very terrifying. Therefore, the United States has great expectations for island countries to participate in the war. Otherwise, they would not have crazily supported the island country after the end of the last world war, in order to make the island country stronger. Fortunately, in this world war, it will bring greater power to Germany. Trouble.

  Although, during the period, it almost happened that the dog of the island country turned against its owner. However, in the end everything is still in the hands of the Americans. The island nation has returned to the right path. This time, Hopkins went to the island country for a secret visit as President Roosevelt's special envoy, precisely because the time promised by the island country was approaching.

  Tokyo, Prime Minister's Office. Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro, Foreign Minister Kazunari Ugaki, Prime Minister Ikeda Narumi, Minister of Land Seishiro Itagaki, and Minister of Marine Mitsumasa Yonechi are in a meeting. After the emperor had become a puppet and the elders passed away one by one, the five ministers of the cabinet finally fully controlled all the power of the country. In the absence of human constraints, the entire island country is completely in their hands. They can decide the fate of this country, and they can decide the way this country will go next.

   "Ugaki-kun, when will the US special envoy arrive in Tokyo?" Konoe Fumimaro asked.

   "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, calculate the time, and you will arrive in Tokyo tomorrow morning. At that time, will I come to have a meeting with him, or should he come to see Your Excellency the Prime Minister directly?" Ugaki Kazushige asked.

   Konoe Fumimaro thought for a while, and then said: "Just let him come to the Prime Minister's Office!"

  The island country's participation in the war is already on the verge of death, and it has to be done. If they refuse again this time, the US government will definitely impose sanctions on them. Last time, the island nation intended to join the Allies, but failed, and the US government threatened them. It was only when the island countries swore not to betray that the United States let them go. Although the island country is a big country, its own resources are too frequent, which makes them attach great importance to the support of the United States. Without the steel, oil, and even food backed by the US, the island nation would collapse very quickly. Therefore, the current island countries simply cannot disobey the orders of the United States.

  However, the island government is very unwilling. They were willing to be the dogs of the Americans at the beginning, but there is no way. But now, their situation is much better. Coupled with the expansion of military strength, their ambitions will naturally revive. Besides, in the current war, Germany has the absolute upper hand, and the United States urgently needs the help of the island country, which gives the island country a chance to raise conditions.

  Ugaki Kazunari nodded and didn't say much.

   "My lords, the empire is about to join the war, and no one can change this. Are we ready for battle?" Konoe Fumimaro asked. He was still a little uneasy about it. After all, based on their previous wargame deduction and the strong strength shown by Germany, they all believe that Germany has a high possibility of winning. It is very difficult to win unless you do your best. This also means that they only have one chance. If it fails, the island nation may never have a future.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, the army has completed the mobilization of one hundred divisions. And the mobilization will continue. By the end of this year, we will form a total of two hundred divisions. By then, our army will occupy Nanyang, Occupy Australia and even India," said Lu Minister Seishiro Itagaki. In the past, the standing army of the Japanese Army had only fifty divisions. But after being rejected to join the Allies, they quickly mobilized 50 divisions, bringing the strength of the island army to 100 divisions and more than 2 million people. However, this is far from the limit for the island country. With their population, mobilizing five million troops is a breeze.

   "The Imperial Navy is also ready for battle. Once the war starts, we will do our best to defeat the German Pacific Fleet and Indian Ocean Fleet!" Said the Minister of the Sea Mitsumasa Minai.

  However, Minai Mitsumasa did not have complete confidence. Although the strength of the navy of the island country is very strong, the strength of the German navy is also not weak. The island nation's navy does not even have a clear advantage. Therefore, they can only pray that their luck will be better. In this case, it may be possible to win a big victory at sea. By then, almost the entire Western Pacific will belong to them. Only when the navy wins, can the army of the island country be able to sweep across the entire Southeast Asia and Australia like locusts, and even further afield.

"Very good! Gentlemen, although this war is very dangerous for the empire, why is this not an opportunity? If we can win, then the empire will become one of the most powerful countries in the world! " Prime Minister Fumimaro Konoe said.
