Chapter 1342： Returning to China to report on work (ask for a monthly ticket)

"Your Excellency, Minister of War, I know that General Hisao Nishio's performance is not satisfactory. However, he has not been serving as the commander of the Southern Army for a long time. In such a short period of time, if he wants to make too many achievements, That was already very difficult. What's more, the enemy we are facing is the world's number one German army. Therefore, I hope to give General Nishio Hisao another chance!" said General Prince Hanin Gong Zaijin.

No matter what, General Nishio Hiszo is the candidate he supports as the commander of the Southern Army. If he is replaced due to unfavorable performance, it will also have a great impact on his prestige. For the sake of his own face, General Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen also hoped that General Nishio Hiszo could continue to stay in the position of commander of the Southern Army, and it would be best if he could make some achievements.

Hata Jun six generals were expressionless, while Yamada Otosan frowned.

In the army of the island country, there are countless people who want to replace General Hisao Nishio. Even the six generals of Toshiro Hata may not have no intention of letting his own people replace General Nishio Hisao.

It's just that Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Gong said this again, which made the six generals of Hata Jun have to give each other another face.

In the current island country, the emperor has only played a symbolic role. However, the influence of the royal family is still very large.

"Okay, Your Royal Highness, then give General Hisao Nishio another chance! However, if the situation in Nanyang cannot be opened for a long time, then we have to change people. We don't have enough time to wait any longer. .The longer the battle drags on, the worse it will be for us!" said the Sixth General Hata Toshi.

General Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen nodded, he knew that the sixth general Hata Jun had already given him a face.

Although General Yamada Otosan was somewhat unwilling, he still wisely kept silent. Although he is also a general, he is still one of the three chief officers. But the director of education's gold content among the three chief executives is far inferior to the first two.

After the meeting, General Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen immediately asked his secretary to send a telegram to the Southern Army Command, asking General Nishio Hisao to return to the country immediately, and he needed to explain to him face to face.

After receiving the telegram, Admiral Hisao Nishio felt a little uneasy. He knew that the disastrous defeat of the Lanyin Front Army this time made him lose points in front of the top army. It may even threaten his current position. However, if he is allowed to leave his current position, he will be very unwilling. After all, leaving as a loser means that he may not be able to step into a higher position in his life.

"Tukada-kun, prepare a plane for me, I want to rush back to China immediately!" General Hisao Nishio ordered.

"Hi, Your Excellency Commander." Lieutenant General Tsukada was hesitant to speak.

General Nishio Kozo knew what Lieutenant General Tsukada was worried about, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, there will be no problem. If you want to remove my position, His Royal Highness must have made it clear." .Besides, although the Lanyin Front Army suffered a disastrous defeat, hasn’t the vanguard of the 14th Front Army already landed in Borneo? The Germans did not continue to attack. Therefore, the situation did not continue to deteriorate.”

"Hi, Your Excellency Commander." Lieutenant General Tsukada Kou nodded.

General Hisao Nishio left Manila on a seaplane of the Army Aviation Corps and returned to Tokyo all the way.

In the morning of the second day, he appeared in the office of General Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace. Although he was very tired, General Hisao Nishio forcibly pulled himself together.

"Sit down, Nishio-kun." General Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace said.

"Hi, Your Royal Highness." General Nishio Hisoka looked very respectful in front of Prince Zaijin of Xianyuan Palace.

"How is the war in Nanyang?" General Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace asked.

"His Royal Highness, the Lantian-Indian Front Army suffered heavy losses. The attack of the German armored forces caused us heavy losses. The Lanyan-Indian Front Army is now an organized unit, and there are only two independent mixed brigades left. In addition, there are only More than 10,000 remnants and defeated generals. These remnants and defeated generals no longer have the courage to fight any more, and have been frightened by the Germans. However, the 35th and 41st armies of the 14th Front Army have already begun to land. Follow-up The troops will also start landing on Borneo as soon as possible. The Germans did not launch an attack. Therefore, the battle situation in Borneo is temporarily stable." General Nishio Hiszo said.

Actually, he was also relieved when he learned that the German army did not take advantage of the situation to attack Sennaport and Lahad Datu. If Sennaport and Lahad Datu were recaptured by the Germans, the situation would be really bad. At that time, he didn't know how to face it. Maybe he really might be dismissed because of this.

General Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen nodded: "Mr. Xiwei, many generals have expressed their opinions on the recent performance of the Southern Army. So, you should understand what I mean."

"Hi, Your Royal Highness. Thank you for your support, otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be kicked out of my humble position." General Nishio Hiszo said he was very grateful.

"Nishio-kun, this time, Your Excellency Lu Xiang gave me a face and did not hold the southern army accountable. However, such a thing can't happen again. If it happens again, I have nothing to do." Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen The general reminded.

General Nishio Hiszo nodded repeatedly, of course he knew how many people were staring at the position under his buttocks. If Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace hadn't strongly supported him, he wouldn't have been able to sit in this position at all. I don't know how many people are waiting for him to make a mistake, and then kick him out of this position!

"Mr. Nishio, the most important point is that the Southern Army must open up the situation on the battlefield in Nanyang. Not only we are paying attention to this, but the cabinet ministers are also paying attention, and even the Americans are also paying attention. If it is delayed If the situation is changed, I am afraid it will have a very bad impact." General Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace continued.

"His Royal Highness, please rest assured, I know what to do? Next, the 14th Front Army will all land on Borneo. Then the 7th Front Army, the 18th Front Army, and the 2nd Army will all land on Borneo. We will Attack the Germans with an overwhelming advantage. Even if they have a strong armored force, the terrain of Borneo is not suitable for armored forces to fight. The final victory must belong to us!" General Nishio Hisao was full of confidence Said. He has made up his mind to fight this battle with all his strength.

General Prince Xianin Gong Zairen nodded, and was quite satisfied with General Nishio Hiszo's answer.
