Ishihara Waner nodded after hearing Yamashita's suggestion. [No pop-up novel website] He also felt that Japan had invested a lot of troops in all directions, which was a bit too big. The long direction dispersed Japan's forces, and it also made it impossible for it to achieve victory in changing the war situation on every front.

"Yamashita-kun, I think it's time to end the war in one or two strategic directions. Maybe we should talk to the Third Reich. We were originally members of the Axis powers, but there was some misunderstanding on the Australian issue. " Before Yamashita could speak, Ishihara Wanji continued: "Now the Australian issue no longer exists, it is in the hands of the Americans, it is time to make peace with the Germans."

Looking at the wise general in front of him, Yamashita suddenly had a feeling that he hated seeing each other late. Those Japanese soldiers who clamored for the common prosperity of Greater East Asia had almost no political savvy, which made Yamashita feel that it was a kind of torture for him to work with such a group of idiots. Now that he saw a rare Japanese general with the same political mind as himself, he directly expressed his thoughts.

He took a sip of the sake in front of him, and said to the general of the Kwantung Army who hurried back to Fengtian from the front line: "With all due respect, if it is to negotiate peace with the Third Reich, it is better to start peace talks with both sides... In fact, it is just Achieving peace with the Axis powers will not change our decline in the Pacific battlefield... It is better to make peace with both sides at the same time. As long as the world can recognize our rule within the existing territory, we have won this war. "

Ishihara Wanji appreciated Yamashita's proposal very much. He even felt that it is not impossible to give up a part of the occupied area - as long as it stays in the occupied area of ​​China, Japan will transform into a world-class country in a few years. As a big country, if there is another war for world hegemony at that time, Japan's capital will be stronger, and the cards in its hand will only be better than they are now.

So Ishihara nodded with a smile, and said to Yamashita in agreement: "Actually, I agree with your opinion... Sometimes war can't solve all problems, especially at this time, the whole country has fallen into the quagmire of war Now, it’s time to take some other measures.”

But he changed the subject and continued: "However, the Germans and Americans are now in the upper hand. It is not easy to determine whether they will let us end the war as we like."

After hearing this, Yamashita laughed and said in a very confident tone: "Your Excellency, this is the difference between soldiers and our politicians. What you see are superficial advantages and disadvantages, but what we see It's something more."

When it comes to this mountain, I feel a little eloquent. I think he, a famous diplomat and politician, has been suppressed for too long in such an environment where military operations are the mainstay and diplomacy is almost stagnant: "General Ishihara Your Excellency, you must know that the Germans have no reason to fight anymore. They have lost and gained enough, so they should be more willing to end the war with dignity. To the members of the Far East of the Axis Powers,

Appropriate support and limited support are the main theme. "

Pointing to the world map hanging on the wall, he drew his finger from the vast Pacific Ocean to the icy Atlantic Ocean, and then continued: "The United States and Germany are not allies either, they also have battlefields with each other, compared to us in decline, The threat of Germany in the Atlantic is something that the United States is more concerned about."

After saying this, Yamashita looked at Ishihara Wanji and said confidently: "Then, now, Your Excellency Ishihara Wanji, do you still feel that we, who are at a disadvantage, have no chance to withdraw from the war with dignity? I can be sure now Let me tell you, the United States or Germany, whichever power makes peace with us first, the other power will be defeated and lose the world!"

After listening to Yamashita's words, Ishihara Waner's eyes lit up. It seemed that the Empire of Japan, which had shown signs of decline on all fronts and had to withdraw from the war, suddenly became a country that the two major forces wanted to fight for. key strength. Ishihara Waner couldn't help but nodded, and agreed: "Yamashita-san, your words are worth a hundred thousand troops."

In the eyes of Yamashita, a European affairs expert, although Japan has shown signs of decline on several fronts, it can still use diplomatic operations to become an important bargaining chip for the two major forces of Germany and the United States. After hearing this statement, Ishihara Wanji also immediately felt the correctness of this path—the best way out for Japan is to have both sides, stabilize vested interests, and withdraw from the war with dignity.

So the two wrote their thoughts into a report and sent it back to the domestic base camp. Of course, after sending it, there was no news for ten days. So Ishihara Wanji still wanted to go back to the Far East Front. Similarly, he had no way to prevent the German army from transporting an entire armored division slowly through the Far East Railway to the Far East Front.

Germany, Berlin, Führer's residence.

Akado smiled and listened to his staff and advisers, who kept promoting the benefits of uniting Japan and defeating the United States to end the war: "My head! Relying on the strength of Germany and the occupied areas, there is no way Defeating the United States ended the war. The war has progressed to this stage, and it is time to consider the end. Uniting one of the forces and forcing the remaining forces to compromise is undoubtedly the most economical and affordable method."

"We have no essential conflicts with Japan. As long as the Japanese pay a certain price to appease the emotions of the British side in the north, we may achieve peace between the two countries..." Another politician said: "Australia It is now occupied by the Americans and has little to do with Japan."

Akado nodded, then pressed his hand on the tabletop of his desk, and said slowly: "I don't want to continue the war, because everyone has already earned enough. Isn't it right, we have countless steel factories , there are power plants, there are countless businesses, and even more industrial production projects are being planned..."

He said this casually, but anyone who is familiar with the head of state knows that such a casual start often breeds a frightening storm. Krupp and a few tycoons looked away wisely, and they were not even willing to speak. They were unwilling to offend the Führer at such a time, after all, Linus was still alive in a sense.

"But who are you going to sell these products to? Where are you going to sell them? Agree to a bunch of embarrassing conditions, and then pray to Japan for a short-term peace, throw away a large area of ​​​​the Asian market, just to make the war end a few days earlier ?” Akado asked with a sneer. His eyes glanced over those politicians and businessmen who had just kept saying that they wanted to achieve peace as soon as possible. Wherever they looked, everyone lowered their heads in shame.

"At this time, any idea of ​​wooing Japan is an act of surrender to the enemy! To woo a trash that has been defeated on all sides, and then throw away a large area of ​​​​Asian land? We don't have to wait long, just wait for 20 days! See if the Americans will agree with The Japanese negotiate peace! Unless Roosevelt is stupid, the Americans will not talk about peace with the Japanese!" Akado looked at his subordinates and said loudly firmly.

United States, Washington, Oval Office of the President.

Roosevelt sat in a wheelchair, looked up at his subordinates, and was saying the same words as Akado: "Gentlemen, to win over Japan, you have to admit their vested interests in Asia, and we, the United States, have lost so much Soldiers, after so many bloody battles, what can be won in the end?"

"Even if the Japanese spit out Southeast Asia in the end, what can we gain? Will Japan compromise with us?" He seemed to be nagging, asking questions non-stop, but unfortunately However, none of his subordinates who proposed to make peace with Japan could answer these questions.

"Winning Japan, but retreating our ally China to Germany... Exchange one for another, what do we get after wasting time? Relying on Japan to consume Germany in the Far East? Just kidding... Germany only needs to arm 20 Chinas casually Master, Japan will have to live on relief food." Roosevelt sneered, looking at his subordinates with ironic eyes.

"What should we say to our ally China? Because we want to compromise with Japan, let's give up most of your occupied areas. As for other unequal treaties, just hold your nose and admit it?" Roosevelt Looking at his subordinates, he asked in a voice that was already panting.

"Mr. President, take a sip of water and take a break. I don't think you really want to make peace with Japan, but just to ask if it is possible. After all, our opponent Germany has no peace with Japan. There are so many grievances and disputes, if they get together with Japan first..." His waiter softly persuaded Roosevelt while feeding him water.

After Roosevelt took a sip of water, he waved his hand after hearing what his waiter said, and then looked at his subordinates. He said slowly, "Gentlemen, I know you still don't believe it. What I said, but I am very responsible to tell you that if the Germans are willing to accept a Japan that does not listen to mercy and give up a large Asian market, then it is worthwhile for the United States to fight this war... At least, we did not lose!"

He paused and continued: "If you don't believe... we can wait! Within 20 days, if the Germans make peace with Japan, I will stand up and never use my wheelchair!"
