Children of the door
Initial appearances Junior Tojo Russo-Japanese War of 1904, the government in terms of Japanese militarism is "hanging by a thread," the Guanjianyizhan. But it is at this time, Tojo young school ascend from the Army Central Military Academy. Wartime Military Academy under the system of nature can not be carried out as in the past two years as well-organized and trained to learn. Distraction heart smoldering in the bank, using a half-day off on Sunday afternoon, Hideki Tojo, and a group of Chouweixiangtou accomplices often to non-commissioned officers school Ichigaya station behind the rhetoric. Ichigaya station stood on the hillside, they wind looks into the distance, in my mind in the interpretation of the Russo-Japanese War artillery beacon; sitting on the stone platform, and holding a cup of bitter tea, ears Satsuma pipa desolation of the "River in the Island", "Mountain City "music, they seem to feel the battle is located in Tokyo, the Japanese Military Academy Valley, the smoke blowing from the ... ... often to the point, Tojo would jump out to show he was not very professional _set_ of" God Knife sword dance flow. " Bursts of applause to all Tojo had almost forgotten it, extreme excitement caught him completely unable to extricate themselves for the future of fantasy. The eve of graduation, more than 300 Army lieutenant wearing military uniforms, wear the waist section 17 Military Academy sword Officer of Health came to the Imperial Palace to receive on the battlefield before the last militaristic indoctrination. Tianfu in vibration before they were dead _set_ on Allegiance to the militarism of the young officers of the hands tightly together, they vowed to die for the emperor. Students well in a Mingjiao An remarks revealed the voice of Hideki Tojo: "Visitors to the vibration Tianfu, the world no longer be nostalgia, and to do His Majesty the Emperor of the Royal Shield, pieces of land in Manchuria are willing heart . "in the placement of graduates, the first was assigned to the Army's 3rd Division of the Tojo was" lucky "to temporarily transferred to the New 15 divisions. This is a Russo-Japanese War is about to move into front-line troops. However, Tojo long awaited this "opportunity" has come too late. April 1905, Russo-Japanese war has been the outcome clear, the Japanese army seized victory in the Battle of Mukden, the Russian has become a spent force. Hideki Tojo as a fielding team only spent his first dream of the long expedition. After returning to Japan from the Russo-Japanese war, Tojo again returned to the Army 3rd Division. There, he spent a period of mediocrity but an idle life, marry, have children ... ... Hideki Tojo eager only pass in the flat light of the trivialization of the day, which for an ambitious like him militarism Doctrine is simply a fanatic in terms of "suffering." In 1915, Hideki Tojo No. 27 from the Army University graduate, has 32 years of age, he was out of the Military Academy from the full 10 years. European tour After graduation, as a part of the elite, the army entered the province of Tojo internship, and then letting the Japanese Embassy in Germany outside the military attache, just hit Yu Renhuang Prince Edward traveled to Europe, met with the Japanese military attache stationed in Europe, in the busy hospital Palace Ren prince royal predecessors _set_ the introductions under the famous to the young officers, led by Yong Tian Tieshan oath of allegiance to the Crown Prince, the state vowed to root out long-valve within the military forces veteran, clear political forces of imperial intervention. Baden-Baden then three birds Ukraine (never Tiantie Shan, Min Shiro Obata and Yasuji Okamura) prepare a plan outline. As the fourth person in the Baden-Baden, Tojo was responsible for sentry at the door. Between the ups and downs After returning to the University Tojo and Xianhoudangguo Army instructor, Provincial Military Affairs Bureau of the Army Staff and other staff, the secret in the military development of horizontal contact. August 1929 Renbu Bing Wing Alliance leader 1, August 1931 appointed General Staff Colonel Readiness Council to mobilize Section Section Chief, "Incident", the Japanese political parties held by laissez-faire attitude of military discontent, Hideki Tojo immediately published on the party's words and deeds against military conducted a "survey" and accused it of "provoke civil-military relations." March 1933, Hideki Tojo was appointed Major General, in November the same year, the Minister of any military investigation. At the time, the Secretary is never Tian Tieshan military affairs. Hideki Tojo, as seniors, who, with his insight into Japanese society, has said a lifetime of Tojo's words: "Tojo is the future of the people responsible for the Japanese Army." At that time, the Japanese army, Yong Tian Tieshan its first military intelligence known as the brain, and political competence, and is recognized as the oldest ruling faction is known as the "shoulder the future of the Japanese Army heavy head figure" can only Tojo admitted to three times the land registration ordinary people to make such a big high esteem, Tojo enough to appreciate life. However, Yong Tian Tieshan but did not become Hideki Tojo was the meteoric rise of the characters play a decisive role. Tojo for their people, their views within the Japanese army described as mixed. Yong Tian Tieshan represented by a class of people highly valued for its ability to act, but a more considerable number of people has questioned his thinking ability, which is known as the most representative figures in the first strategist in Japan Ishihara smile. Smile in the eyes of Ishihara, Hideki Tojo is not only no moral incompetence, and even the appearance is that he can not stand. In secretly, Ishihara said, ill be described as common Tojo, Tojo what can only keep ten machine guns, more than ten on the powerless. Smile face to face, said Ishihara has been promoted to Lieutenant General of Tojo as the "Lance Corporal Tojo", attracted all who heard the remark convulsed. Japanese army veteran Ugaki a defeat of Japan into surrender once recalled: "filed Tojo, I was most impressed by is the seriousness of his appearance, and always remember to take out your notebooks kept in mind that this is simply can not even imagine such a person can become prime minister of a country. "appears, Ishihara smile of the" Lance Corporal Tojo "is not without ears. March 1934, Hideki Tojo in the position of the military investigation of Ministers to sit only four months, he was transferred to the Military Academy and later worked in the 24th Infantry Brigade and 12th Division headquarters. After a transaction, the Tojo featherbed the end only ended in failure, in particular, to the 12th Division headquarters, he has no concern to the point where it does not work, none of even the desk arranged for him. September 1935, the Secretary of Personnel Department of the Army Temple Chun, Tojo in the Army force of young alumni of the school age recommended Tojo as the Kwantung Army commander of the gendarmerie officers, and Tojo was as a springboard to Japan, began his the impact of fascist highest center of power.

General razor
Kwantung Army commander of the gendarmerie officers, although not a significant role, but Tojo is undoubtedly very important. "It matters not Yat Ming will be amazing!" 51 years of age, of Hideki Tojo also issued a warning of their own, he must make the Army his senior notes the existence, let the emperor know that there is a named East Army Tojo's "doer." Military police rule Japan to forcibly northeast of me, in order to achieve the so-called pseudo-unitary rule of Manchukuo, in 1932 it introduced a so-called "eighty-eight" resolution, and then again in 1934, the Japanese Manchukuo institutions in re-consolidation. Since then, the Kwantung Army took control of Manchukuo in fact the political, military, diplomatic and economic power, will become the overlord of the Kwantung Army commander. Hideki Tojo, the post of commander of the Renxian Bing, in accordance with the provisions of the same individual over administrative affairs of Japan in the Secretary's positions. After the arrival of Hideki Tojo, the first the first thing to do to foster their own gang. Prior to this, the preparation of the Kwantung Army military police is just a team of only about 200 people. This negligible power, but can not meet the needs of Hideki Tojo. So he quickly from the Japanese mainland, Taiwan and North Korea, effective in mobilizing a group of go-getters, and in the arrangements for their positions in the gendarmerie, in a short time to cultivate the loyalty of his cronies. In less than a year, the Kwantung Army military police have soared to more than 1,000 people, and in northeastern China under the gendarmerie, and police units, weaving a piece of the forces under his control by the network. At the same time, Tojo also through the implementation of a unified military police, not only expanded the scope of the Gendarmerie's strength, but also solved the thorny problem for many years. At the time of the puppet Manchukuo, in fact, there are three systems of police organizations, the Ministry of Civil Affairs police Manchukuo, the Japanese Consulate in the East Room of the police and customs police. Issues surrounding the abolition of extraterritoriality, holding opposing views of the police and held off the East Room of the Consulate General of Police to promote between the diametrically opposed views, refused to give. Faced with this situation, Tojo Burongfenyue categorically decided to put two police uniform under the command of the military police headquarters. Tojo's this "razor" style, so many within the Kwantung Army skeptical of his people by the strong shock, he also greatly improved by a move in the Kwantung Army in the "prestige." To further establish credibility, and strengthen the control of the gendarmerie, Tojo also issued to all members of the military police "to be devoted to their duties," the instructions, but also specifically attached to his portrait on the printed instructions. For a time, Tojo's portrait posted all over the Manchukuo military police stationed in various points of the walls. Destroy Volunteer Played after the first three-legged, Hideki Tojo was still satisfied with their own, but to achieve his greater ambition, he must also plan further implementation of the fourth step: realistically right. Tojo took office in the month before, that in August 1935, the Kwantung Army to crusade against the Chinese Communist Party's anti-Japanese armed forces in the northeast region, has developed a "security Su is planning" to pseudo-Mukden, Andong, Jilin, between the Island and Riverside five provinces and regions, focusing on trying to kill me in one fell swoop the anti-Japanese forces. Tojo took office at a time when the Kwantung Army implementation of the plan crucial moment. Spotted the opportunity and decided to Hideki Tojo, Japanese forces attacked me as a breakthrough for the military police to open a new situation. So he reported to the Kwantung Army headquarters after he took office the first policy agenda: 1. Full of police authorities in Japan to create "thought countermeasures," the specialized agencies, to strengthen the Chinese Communist Party's political repression. The specialized agencies, the gendarmerie commander of the Kwantung Army command should be, given its oversight of "Manchukuo" police authorities the power to change the past by a special class of high class and judicial Su and arrested separately responsible for managing the "mismatch" phenomenon, to plug the loopholes in this respect, and resolve contradictions that may arise. 2. To Riverside, Three Rivers, Jilin, between the islands, Anton, and six provinces in Mukden and Harbin, Qiqihar, New Beijing, Mukden, and the five cities of Dalian, emphasis will be configured in the provisional military police agencies around the establishment of, give full play to the role of military police against anti-filled anti-Japanese forces. 3. Day full of bodies engaged in "thinking measures" financed by the Kwantung Army commander of the gendarmerie officers unified management and disposal. This "Policy Agenda" fully exposed Tojo anxious to monopolize the Kwantung Army, "security Su is" power ambitions. To take this opportunity, he will oversee easily, implementation and financial control in one hand all the three powers between. In power, the more complacent Tojo. He invited the then Ministry of Manchukuo military and political consultant Sasaki to a maximum and began secret planning "bandits" matters. October 1, 1936, Sasaki Advisory Group to a lead a dozens of people in Japan, Manchukuo out of 11 total brigades, about 25,000 people. Road on the east side of implementation of large punitive, March 26, 1937, in Tonghua, Volume security, Riverside at the junction of the top sub on Tiger, Wang Fengge led the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army and the enemy launched a 15 hours of fierce fighting, the end result of the final outnumbered captured by the enemy. Eastern Road, "independent big crusade" to Hideki Tojo became famous overnight. Stepping on hundreds of thousands of Japanese soldiers and the body count of innocent people, took to the location of the Kwantung Army chief of staff, Hideki Tojo, has never ambitious of its irrepressible. Two hundred twenty-six Incident February 26, 1936 early in the morning, "King's Road School" nearly 1,500 young guard troops launched a military coup in Tokyo. They occupied the Prime Minister's Office, the War Ministry, Ministry of Home Affairs and the General Staff Headquarters and other important institutions, but also control of the "Asahi Shimbun" community. Home Secretary Minoru Saito, the Army Education Director Taro Watanabe ingots, large reservoir phase Takahashi, Qing, who was killed by the military coup. Coup to "respect the emperor to discuss rape", "Showa Restoration" as a slogan in support of Sadao Araki and other "King's Road School," chief cabinet came to power, the establishment of the fascist regime, immediately "north", crusade against the Soviet Union. Coup Tokyo into chaos. The news quickly spread to the coup, "Manchuria" as a "control group" Hideki Tojo, the backbone can not help but secretly surprised, because there are many within the Kwantung Army, "King's Road School" of sympathizers, he may also become a "King's Road School "one of the goals assassinated. Soon, the situation is more critical - the eleventh in Harbin really special mixed brigades sent Major General Sichuan power, claim to support domestic "soldiers remonstrance"; in "East full of" the sixteen divisions have their own action, and went to the "new Beijing "; Jiamusi garrison camp riots, have occupied East Station, blocking the train ... ... Hideki Tojo, the face of crisis situations, come up with consistent style, according to the instructions of the Kwantung Army launched a large suppression of arrest orders, instructions and men do not belong in the military police raids Executive to discuss and direct forces to act. He assured the division, brigade and police dispersed around the Constitution and the Order of Executive to give secret power, orders were immediately executed traitors creating chaos. According to "blacklist", Changchun, military police swiftly arrested shoot to kill all of Changchun, "King's Road School" senior officers. On the other hand, lost no time Tojo sent to the emperor and military power, position, declared against the Kwantung Army "soldiers Remonstrance", strongly supported the emperor. Power, said: "'King's Road School' Nitu kill Empire minister of state, by force emperor to abdicate, shame me I Wong Wei chaos platform, causing anger hack world. This vector loyal to Jesus Christ all the Kwantung Army declared a series of imperial system, resort to force to wipe out any rebellion, to the kingdom of God Jing. now to swearing Tao Ni. urges the military immediately ordered the arrest of scum and purge the country. 'King's Road School' armed rebels held as early dynasties, to avoid heavy penalties. if not recalcitrant offerings, Kwantung Army will Zhenwu Endeavor, took the day punishment! "Tojo's strong and decisive action to stabilize the situation in the Kwantung Army, so that the" control group "firmly under control this" flower of the Imperial Army ", a distance of Tokyo call" flat rebel "action. 28, the Tokyo headquarters issued the martial law, "Feng Chi order", sent troops to suppress "rebels." The next day, the rebels have surrendered. Later, led by 17, "King's Road School" fascist theoretician Kita officers and glow were executed, the other major "Tenno school" officers were dismissed, demoted, "King's Road School" have been big forces in the military cleaning. With the "two hundred twenty-six" mutiny failed outcome, "control group" received an overwhelming "King's Road School" dominant position. Tojo suppression of the Chinese People in the Northeast Anti-Japanese Armed restore "law and order in Manchuria" and "victories" and the "two hundred twenty-six" Incident in the Emperor's loyal support of the performance won him the support and appreciation of the central military. December 1, 1936, Tojo was promoted to Lieutenant General. March 1937, Hideki Tojo, Itagaki Seishiro board to succeed the throne of the Kwantung Army chief of staff. A blow to China Meanwhile, the Kwantung Army alone developed a "Framework for handling the current situation," a comprehensive military offensive launched to punish themselves for the Nanjing government, destroy five north central and military policy, and stated: "the establishment of local political power, to seek and Manchuria become clear border region, in preparation for the War against Russia, is essential to ensure the safety of the front end, "at least make the Chahar, Hebei, Shandong provinces and completely independent. "The intention is clear, namely the use of the Sino-Japanese conflict, in one fell swoop to establish a puppet regime in northern China, to split China, to prevent the surging power of a united front against Japanese aggression, threat to Japan, which can affect their preparations for the War against Russia. In this case, the Japanese Kwantung Army General Staff Headquarters agreed to put forward the request to the Chahar operations. However, with further developments in the cabinet meeting, Foreign Minister Tian Hongyi wide events for not expanding the idea of Tibetan phase Kaya Hing Vision statement from the financial aspects of the situation after the expansion of Japan will likely to face financial difficulties. But the reality is that the Kwantung Army had been such a runaway horse, in addition to the current situation of the developments compliance no other option. Chahar from the August war plan to enforce. The war plan operations officer of the Kwantung Army Ayabe citrus development, Tojo personally led the implementation of Chahar Corps. Tojo served as the command, so the Corps has also been called "Tojo Corps." The Kwantung Army Corps is the more brigades and regiments, brigades and regiments Shinohara, Sakai detachment of brigade and the embankment some troops were composed of mixed brigades out of group. August 19, Tojo established mixed brigades in North Zhang regimental headquarters, easy to close the command. Tojo take the usual "lightning tactics", along the lines followed by offensive south of Beiping-Suiyuan, Pass, Huailai and other military site in Zhangjiakou. Chinese garrison in the region of about 3 million people, and Hideki Corps is only a few thousand people. However, due to lack of determination to resist the Chinese garrison, garrison weak. Crazy Japanese depend mechanized offensive weapons, the Chinese garrison had to retreat steadily. August 22, the defenders of KMT Liuru Ming Zhang Department of the North was defeated. 29, Zhangjiakou fall. Zhangjiakou's fall, making the front line in the south of China against the Japanese defenders Tang Enbo attacked front and rear faces the danger of the Ministry. Thus, only line of defense contraction, with the failure of Zhangjiakou and south of blocking action, Chanan no barrier region, the Japanese breezed into the Chahar province under its control. At this point, Tojo impatient. He ignored the "central direction" to proceed immediately to recruit collaborators and reposition itself in the autonomous regime Chanan brand. Japanese "Xuan Fu" work is done "in place in time." In Zhangjiakou after the battle, they quickly write a song singing the praises of Hideki Tojo as a war song: Rehe sand dust storm volume, the Mongolian Plateau grass Fang, swept into the north under the sheets, night attack Great Wall no barrier, trenches dying night comes incense. Quebec audience octagonal water beside the River Yuasa ten two brigades, blazing straight forward, rapid capture of Zhangjiakou. Osmanthus Yuxiang sweet grapes, Chanan autonomy has been established.

Army Representative
May 1938, advocating the end of three months Sugiyama continental China Incident was out of the central element by Itagaki Seishiro replaced, also replaced Tojo as the Army Shinjiro Umezu minister. Early November 1938, Prime Minister Konoe proposed "building a new order in East Asia" slogan, which is in fact a declaration of the Japanese dominance in East Asia. L Marshall became provincial minister of Tojo "sleepless nights" for Japan's aggression and advice, holidays and even refused to rest. With the war situation in the Japanese invasion of China into the stand-off. At this point the top headquarters of allied problems on the differences. Held at the July meeting of the five-phase, continental Itagaki advocated to keep pace with Germany, at the conclusion of the Triple Alliance of Germany, Italy, and marine governance and foreign minister of light meters were against. Factions fighting the incredibly hard, shortly thereafter, the Kwantung Army in the Soviet Union, Zhang drum peak provocation, the result defeated, the Emperor Showa was furious, under the Minister of the Army blamed fiercely Itagaki Seishiro nozzle. However, the emperor really criticize the wrong person. In fact, the more stubbornly advocated "positive while the Soviet Union supported the two operations," the minister is the Army Tojo, and this idea, Tojo early period of the Kwantung Army had already started brewing. Idea in his mind, if you want completely solve China's problems and achieve long-term occupation of Japan's ambitions in China, we must first clear the road. The Soviet Union is the scourge of Japan, which Japan has not himself into the battlefield in China, while China will provide strong support. Therefore, even if the two fronts is "not knowing whom to also be" choice. Tojo's ambition is really obvious. At 9:30 on November 28, 1938, Hall held in the military's "do owners of the Army Management Conference", he talked nonsense, claiming that Japan should "on the Soviet Union and China while fighting, but also prepared to work with Britain, the United States, Law of war. " His remark immediately sparked a huge shock in Japan. Not only to the Japanese business community had a strong impact, resulting in Tokyo's stock market tumbled, but also that war maniacs gathered in the military are not acceptable, have accused him too "frivolous." Itagaki Seishiro continental Tojo claimed purpose is to encourage Japan to military production, it is only a means to promote it. Under pressure, the upper half of the Army Rengang Gang minister had dingy ground floor of the station, he was named to the Aviation Director. But the ambitions of Hideki Tojo did not result in the slightest convergence. May 1939, Nomonhan battle broke out, see also jumped about Tojo. In this battle, the Soviets and the Japanese have used a large number of modern weapons and equipment, especially aircraft, tanks and armored vehicles. However, the battle of the result took no Tojo face: strong in the Soviet offensive, the Japanese once again been hit hard, the main force war almost annihilated the 23d Division, the Kwantung Army mobilized the troops, casualties nearly 1 / 3, heavy loss of up to 87%. In this connection, the ambitions of the Kwantung Army had attempted to give up north. But Tojo was not a disadvantage, he will record unlimited game which exaggerated in the Army Air Force, for their own gain political capital. August 1939, Hitler conquered Europe in order to concentrate on Stalin's secret with the signing of the "Soviet-German non-aggression treaty." Sood's "friendly" Soviet power plus the Japanese had to temporarily abandon the "north" ambitions. July 17, 1940, has experienced Kiichiro Hiranuma, Abe Nobuyuki, a few meters Mitsumasa like a revolving door of any cabinet change, the Konoe Cabinet Mo coming out again. Guards of the cabinet in, the hard-line militarists Tojo was only use for the continental. Japan's invasion of southern French Indochina, expand the "south" a first step, which greatly damaged the United Kingdom and the United States vested interests in Southeast Asia, the U.S. began to put pressure on Japan to freeze as_set_s in the United States and Japan demanded that Japan give up territorial ambitions in China and the Pacific. The Japanese do not want a confrontation with the United States since, and because of deep Chinese battlefield, not dare to revolt, chose to negotiate with the United States. But in fact, "negotiation" is just as enthusiastic advocacy of such Tojo "south" to delay expansion of the current situation of aggression militants who carried out the guise of preparing for it. Japan to the negotiating table there is no "good faith", they demanded that the U.S. recognize "Manchukuo", agreed to acquire resources in Japan from Southeast Asia. Do not give each side, more and more contradictory differences. August 1, Foreign Minister Yosuke Matsuoka openly declared that "Our current aim is to direct foreign policy, according to the noble spirit of King's Road, building to date," full ", one of China Group for the chain link of the 'Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere '. " Japan's aggressive ambitions at this time is no longer confined to China, but to build a larger so-called "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere" was. September 27, 1940, Germany, Italy, Japan and France sign the Triple Alliance treaty in Berlin. At this point, Prime Minister Konoe Mo still find the courage to direct conflict with the United States, asking for articles on major continental East policy should be "prudent" to act. Tojo is rather disdain and said: "Sometimes, we have the courage to go do something extraordinary - like from Kiyomizu Temple to jump on the platform, like a closed her eyes on the line." Hideki machine also clamored: "On withdrawal, I do not give the slightest!" If withdrawal will mean "the United States defeated Japan - this is the shame of the Japanese empire in history!" Konoe Mo this noble cold feet, in October 16 announced the resignation of the cabinet. Japan at the brink of war requires a trip mine fool for sign, the Japanese chose to Hideki Tojo, Hideki also consciously _set_ foot on this step. Konoe cabinet to resign the next day, the minister of state Tojo cabinet meeting approved the nomination. 17 afternoon, the emperor summoned Tojo, promoted it as a general of Patent to active duty military officers ordered him to come forward to form a government as prime minister, and who is also continental. 18 Tojo cabinet was established, this is a war authoritarian "cabinet," Tojo a person who is continental, internal phase, and later part-time Ministry of phase, Commerce and Industry relative, military equal level, _set_ all kinds of power in one. In his inaugural statement, the warlord shouting "China Incident done to establish 'Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere'," the policy of the empire, to the "imperial prestige under the national unity, but towards the completion of St industry."

Shogun Tojo
Left BAMO, Zhang Jinghui, Wang, Hideki December 8, 1941, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor naval base, the Pacific War. Almost at the same time, the Japanese began to Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines and Southeast Asia to attack the islands, full implementation of the long-planned "south" program. Soon, Singapore, Malaysia, has caught the hands of Japanese troops, occupied the whole territory of the Philippines. The following year in March, the Japanese had occupied the Netherlands East Indies, the control of local oil and other mineral products, and the United States, Britain, the Netherlands and other countries around the troops stationed at the retreat in Southeast Asia. In less than six months, the Japanese occupation of nearly 3.8 million square kilometers in Southeast Asia's vast land area occupied population of 1.5 billion people. June 1942, Battle of Midway, the Japanese defeated. As the Navy's intention to conceal, as the Prime Minister Tojo was surprised to be kept in the dark, completely unaware of, the beginning of 1943, the Japanese invasion of Guadalcanal suffered another hit. Then the Navy has two co-Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, and one died of Ancient He peak, the U.S. forces broke into the mobile carrier in the Pacific, the submarine scurry around like wolves, like everywhere, the Japanese merchant ships sunk, the Japanese war machine can not add a lot of blood loss. Japanese retreat from this unstoppable decline into being, Tojo's war cabinet are also in precarious being. War Japan, the consumption has been empty the changing situation within a country also Tojo in political bankruptcy. First came to power, who is also Prime Minister Hideki Tojo, land within the phase three phase and the post of military and political power in one _set_. In order to suppress people's thoughts, Tojo military police practice of political terror, 1943, either in the military Services officials made life on the West End visit to Kansai, in answer to a reporter's question casually, simply said: "This is something I do not know You ask that the trash guy every morning, turn it, he knows. "This really says is that Hideki Tojo. Because one of Tojo's hobby is to check the trash in the trash and see if people eat about having a difficult time in the national extravagance. This angered the petty Tojo, immediately ordered the generals to senior West End into the reserve. This wanton repression, dictatorship that ruined his political reputation for ever. He was crowned three cronies raped four stupid title (c rape "refers to a Class A war criminals will be Suzuki Chen, North Park Daijiro Kato will Shina commander of the gendarmerie, the Tokyo Quartet, and understanding the Second Military Police Major General Long;" four ignorance "is a nail Taro Kimura, general-class war criminal soldiers, Sato Yin a lieutenant general, the Army _set_ Province Military Affairs Ichiro Sanada Major General Secretary, the Army chief of provincial military affairs, Colonel Akamatsu true male). At the same time, such large-scale war in the already resource-poor Japan is worse people increasingly dissatisfied with the top forces have begun to change sides, abandoned Tojo. Tojo no alternative access to the old secret smile retired Ishihara will head to find a solution. Ishihara has long been an emissary of the Emperor's Palace Xuanren Prince Takamatsu said: "In the absence of modern warfare where air superiority can not get sea, air supremacy over the other since have fallen into the hands of our military should immediately give up the Solomon Islands, Bismarck Islands and the new lift Guinea. This ensures that our military supply lines, west of the border from Myanmar began to abandon the central Philippines, the strong Singapore, Sumatra as the central resource area, and the local surrounding Saipan, Teni An Island and Guam are not built and hard to attack down the fort. " Emperor dared not determined to do so, and now big shot on the surface of Tojo is no courage and authority to implement, and Hideki admit that in the Japanese army in that the person did not dare to go against the will of the Emperor, lost the trust of the Emperor means loss of political life. Prime Minister the right to be big, but also the moon reflecting the sun. So we know the truth do not want the stone of the original smile and Tojo nonsense. Put it bluntly: "From the beginning that you do not have the ability to guide the war, Japan would go on like this subjugation, so please quit Prime Minister's position as soon as possible" Tojo reconciled to fail, like the last struggling, part-time chief of staff to the duties of the emperor made his own friends in the Navy marine military orders Shimada Shigetaro concurrently Minister of the implementation of a unified army and navy leadership, strategic posture and strategies to make up for the Navy and Army disjointed phenomena. The consent of the Emperor, he became the greatest rights under the Meiji Constitution, a person is known as the Shogun Tojo political opponents, but he maintained that position was only less than 5 months.
