"Yes, as long as all the people of the world who love peace are united together, we will surely defeat the Axis of Evil Alliance, and victory will eventually belong to us!"

Liu Qiang was also moved at this moment, and then sighed, "I'm almost circled around the earth in circles, and now I'm getting closer and closer to home."

Qiao Qingshan smiled and nodded and said, "Yes, I guess we will not be able to recover Australia, and we will fight directly to the Japanese hometown. If we defeat the Japanese devils, we will be able to return in triumph!"

"It's really worth our generation to be able to defeat the Japanese and the Axis of Evil Alliance with one hand!"

Liu Qiang nodded in a good mood, looked at the past before he looked back on, and a sense of pride and ambition came out of his heart.

...

Imperial Palace in Tokyo.

Just as the Allied Special Mixed Fleet arrived in New Zealand and New Zealand military and civilians were immersed in the ocean of joy, the Japanese Emperor was holding a meeting of imperial prefecture to discuss the increasingly worse and worse situation of war.

Hirohito frowned and patted a document on the table and said: "Italy has signed an unconditional surrender, and they will soon join the Allies and declare war on Germany based on reliable intelligence.

This is a great bad news for the Axis Alliance and a great blow to the Great Japanese Empire.

The Great Japanese Empire can be said to be a turbulent time now, and the pressure on all aspects is getting greater and greater. You can just say anything you want to say."

In 1943, due to Italy's failure in North Africa and the defeat of elite troops on the Soviet-German battlefield, especially after the Allied forces landed in Sicily, the fascist parliament voted to demand Mussolini's resignation.

Subsequently, Mussolini was arrested when he was summoned by the king, and the Mussolini government collapsed.

On August 6, 1943, the newly-employed Bardorio government asked Hitler to lift Italy's alliance obligations, but Hitler ordered the German army to prepare to capture Italy.

The Bardorio government, forced by the people's firm demands, signed an unconditional surrender letter on September 3, and stipulated that the Italian armed forces immediately cease military operations; Italy should make every effort to "refuse the Germans to give convenient conditions to the Germans against the United Nations"; the allies have the right to freely use Italian airports and naval bases.

At this time, the German fascist army occupied Italy and made Mussolini, who was robbed by German paratroopers, establish the so-called "social republic" in the German-occupied area in northern Italy, struggling dyingly.

On October 13, Italy declared war on Germany, and the Soviet Union, the United States, Britain, China and other countries also issued a declaration, recognizing that Italy was the party that fought together.

The axis of Germany, Italy and Japan began to collapse.

Fushimi Miyaki Hirokyo said in a harsh tone: "Since the Italian government has betrayed the Axis Alliance, they should pay the price. The Japanese Empire no longer has to protect their interests in China unless they choose to be loyal to the Italian Social Republic."

"Soga! This is what it should be, and it is necessary!"

Hirohito nodded slightly, and a harshness flashed in his eyes. He naturally knew what Fushimi Miyaki Hiroki was referring to.

When the War of Resistance Against Japan broke out in full swing, in order to protect its interests in China, Italy sent three warships to China in 1941, of which the "Eritrea" and "Ram-1" arrived in Shanghai and Tianjin.

Although Italy and Japan were allies at that time, the relationship between these two countries was far inferior to that with Germany.

These Italian soldiers stationed around the coast of China have been very comfortable in recent years. The Japanese army will not come to invade, and the Chinese are also afraid of them, so they will cause trouble everywhere while having fun, which has led to the local Japanese army being very disgusted with these Italian garrisons.

Now that Italy is forced to withdraw from the Axis powers, the good days for these Italian soldiers stationed in China are naturally over.

More than 500 Italian troops stationed in Tianjin, Peking, Shanghai Concession and Embassy and Consulate areas were soon surrounded by more than 6,000 puppet troops.

In order to force these people to surrender, the Japanese army also transferred artillery and planes. After the Japanese army's 10-hour deterrent artillery and air strikes, these Italian troops had to choose to burn confidential documents and surrender.

The Japanese army also called this incident the "September righteous subjugation incident". The Japanese army also captured 1,100 Italian citizens and demanded that they be loyal to the "Italian Social Republic" supported by Hitler. If they were unwilling, they would be sent to the concentration camp.

In the end, only 170 of the more than 1,000 Italians were willing to join the Japanese army, and the others were imprisoned in Japanese concentration camps and suffered two years of abuse.

It was not until Japan announced its unconditional surrender that these Italians who were locked up by the Japanese army returned to their motherland.

"But these are all irrelevant trivial matters. The most urgent thing is how to deal with increasingly complex war situations."

Hirohito then said, "The US Pacific Special Mixed Fleet has arrived in New Zealand. They are only the last 2,000 kilometers away from the Australian continent. I believe they will attack the Australian continent in a short time.

Everyone, the Australian continent is already the most important overseas territory of the Great Japanese Empire. It is related to the future of the Great Japanese Empire. We must not abandon it. This is the bottom line of the Great Japanese Empire!”

"Hayi! Please rest assured by His Majesty the Emperor, the Australian continent will definitely not be thrown away!"

After Tojo bowed his head confidently, he said in a cold tone, "The Australian continent is not a small island in the Pacific Ocean. The Japanese Empire has enough strategic space and defensive power. If the Americans dare to attack the Australian continent directly, they will definitely pay an unbearable price."

"Tojo-kun, what I want now is not ruthless words, but practical strategies and tactics!"

Hirohito frowned. As the war situation became increasingly corrupt, he was increasingly disappointed with this cabinet prime minister who served multiple positions, and he had long lost his initial favor and absolute trust.

Tojo also knew what the situation was, but what could he do. At this time, he could only say with a tough bullet and said: "Your Majesty, although the US fleet can set out directly to attack the Australian continent, New Zealand has no oil and no industrial production capacity. The Allied forces' supplies have to be transported to Hawaii by the United States and then transferred to New Zealand.

At present, the Solomon Islands are still firmly in the hands of the Empire, so the Allies can only take a detour, and their long supply line will be a fatal weakness!"

"On the other hand, the Great Japanese Empire can rely on its powerful geographical advantage to continuously replenish soldiers and supplies, and is not afraid of the war of attrition from the Allies!"

"So I am not worried that the Allies will use New Zealand as a springboard to attack the Australian continent. Instead, I feel that they are likely to take down the Solomon Islands first and then slowly plan to do so!"

Tojo can be said to be the most special and strange prime minister in Japan. In this process, he unlocked a "personal achievement": he supported most of the Japanese government cabinet alone.

Since Tojo established the so-called Tojo Cabinet on November 18, 1940, Hideki Tojo not only became prime minister, but also served as general of the army, minister of the army, minister of the interior, and minister of commerce and industry.

However, Hideki Tojo still felt that he didn't have enough work. In 1943, he proclaimed himself a military minister and worked as a minister of Foreign Affairs and Minister of Culture for a period of time. Before he stepped down in the last 44 years, he was also the chief of staff for a period of time.
