"Baka! Kenkichi Ueda is such a bastard. Ever since he took charge of the Kwantung Army, not only has he not achieved any significant results, but he has also thrown Manchukuo into chaos.

It was a shame that the last time the Manchukuo ambassador to Japan dared to come directly to us to protest.

When did dogs learn to bite their owners? Kenkichi Ueda is a negligent dog owner! "The Army General Nishi Yoshiichi also chose to step on him at this time.

In the current situation, there is no one more suitable than Kenkichi Ueda to take responsibility.

"Although Kenkichi Ueda was wrong, he would never have allowed Major Takazaki to be assassinated. Don't forget that he had a good relationship with the Takazaki family." Gen Sugiyama said hesitantly.

These words caused the atmosphere at the scene to fall into silence again.

At this time, Ishiwara Kanji suddenly suggested: "I think that the person who committed the assassination might really be Lieutenant General Doihara." When he mentioned Lieutenant General Doihara, he emphasized the word "Lieutenant General".

The generals sitting in the row in front were all smart men. When they heard this, they all understood what Ishiwara Kanji meant.

Several generals and lieutenant generals could not help but look back at this new military celebrity, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that young people are just cruel.

Yuheng Yicheng said: "So, it was Doihara who planned this operation?"

Although it was a question, his intention was obviously to seek everyone's opinions and see if anyone objected to putting the blame on Doihara.

When everyone heard this, they nodded slightly in agreement without any expression.

The biggest reason why they agreed with Ishiwara Kanji so easily was that Doi was about to be doomed.

When Kenkichi Ueda reported that Doihara might be involved with Shiro Ishii, these army leaders decided to pin the blame of poisoning the Kwantung Army on Doihara.

Otherwise, Shiro Ishii alone cannot be held responsible for the damage to the combat effectiveness of several Kwantung Army divisions.

At this time, Ishihara Kanji said: "It would be best if Major Takazaki is fine. In that case, we can hold Doihara, who planned the attack, accountable.

But if Major Takazaki was loyal to the Emperor, then General Ueda Kenkichi had an unshirkable responsibility for the assassination of Major Takazaki. The person was in Manchukuo, so he should be the one responsible."

Ishiwara Kanji used several different words, including "attack" when he said Major Takazaki was fine, and "assassinated" when he said he was loyal to the emperor.

One was just an attack, the other was an assassination. Although the two statements express similar meanings, they have different meanings to other people.

When being attacked, it feels as if the person being attacked is not just one person, but when being assassinated, it feels as if it is specifically targeting one person, and is more purposeful.

In other words, if Zhou Zhengqing had not died, then Lieutenant General Doihara could be charged with planning an attack. After all, the attack was not necessarily targeted only at Zhou Zhengqing.

But if Zhou Zhengqing died, then the weight of Lieutenant General Doihara would not be enough, and Ueda Kenkichi would have to take the responsibility. At this time, assassination would be needed to show that someone specifically wanted Zhou Zhengqing dead.

These words further enhanced everyone's impression of him. They all admired Ishiwara Kanji's meticulous thinking. He even considered the subsequent development of the matter and thought of a proper explanation to the outside world.

Just as the army leaders nodded in agreement.

Mitsumasa Yonai spoke again, and as soon as he spoke, he hit the chest of many army leaders.

"Yoshi! You are indeed the elite of the Army. We in the Navy cannot learn the skill of shirking responsibility. You pushed the blame away so easily.

You are the pillars of our Great Japanese Empire. Without you, I don't know how our Great Japanese Empire can continue to function. I admire you so much!"

As Mitsumasa Yonai said this, he exaggeratedly gave the army leader a thumbs up, but the thumbs up was a little crooked, and it looked awkward no matter how you looked at it.

"Baka! Mitsumasa Yonai, what do you mean!" Nishio Toshizo yelled.

"Humph, Lu Jun's brain is still as useless as ever, he can't even understand what I'm saying!

You think it's too simple to just throw two people out to take the blame and appease everyone! Don't you think it's stupid and ridiculous?

I feel so sad for Doihara and Ueda Kenkichi. They worked tirelessly for your army, but you guys backstabbed them like this! Haha, you are a bunch of mean, hypocritical, and dirty people! "

"Bullshit, we are telling the truth. Doihara and Ueda Kenkichi were responsible for this matter!

Besides, they are all from our army, when will it be your turn to speak for them?" Nishio Toshizo's face turned red, and Mitsumasa Yonai's words were like a slap in the face.

"But where is the real murderer? Our navy is listening here too, and you army can't say whatever you want!" said Mitsumasa Yonai with a sneer on your face.

"Will His Majesty the Emperor and the Takasaki family believe what you say?" Admiral Yoshida Zengo, Chief of Staff of the Combined Fleet, also spoke up.

Yoshida Zengo's words discouraged the army's people.

Right! How did the Emperor explain? He just said he would send a chess piece to play with him, and something happened to the chess piece immediately!

Can it really be explained simply by throwing out Doihara and Ueda Kenkichi?

Just when the Army didn't know what to say, a group of people walked into the meeting room.

It was the Emperor who had hurried back.

The emperor, who was less than 40 years old, walked into the meeting hall step by step, leaning on a walking stick.

Everyone in the conference hall quickly lowered their bodies, followed the emperor's footsteps, moved from kneeling position, and always faced the emperor.

Without the usual politeness, the Emperor sat down at the first seat and said directly: "I just came back from the villa next to the Imperial Palace. Do you know who I went to see?"

Without hearing the emperor's order to stand up, the generals could only remain crouched. Only after hearing the emperor's words did they raise their heads and look at the emperor.

But when they saw this, everyone's heart sank again, because the emperor's expression at this moment was so ugly that it could no longer be described.

That was quite ugly, his face was so black that it looked like the bottom of a pot.

Perhaps because he saw that Prince Zairen was old, the Emperor waited for a while before saying, "You are so old now, please stand up, don't kneel and die in front of me."

This was very impolite. Prince Zairen smiled awkwardly and asked carefully, "Your Majesty, you said you went to the villa. Did you go to see Yingqi Yuande?"

"Yes, I went to see him! I want him to go to China immediately. Do you know why?" The emperor spoke each word very heavily, giving people a sense of oppression.

"This... is about Takuto Takazaki's matter, right? Your Majesty wants Motosaki Takazaki to handle his son's affairs?" Prince Zairen looked up and answered carefully, while the others looked terrified.

No matter what they thought deep down, these generals fully demonstrated the Japanese tendency to value small courtesies over greater justice, and they were always respectful on the surface.
