Oikawa and Private Tojo carefully exited Yujin's room.

"I'll leave it to you regarding the caseless bullets. If the combined fleet doesn't get a new warship, I will go to His Majesty the Emperor."

Oikawa said to Tojo with a smile, then turned and left.

"idiot!"

Tojo looked at Oikawa's back and was so angry that he almost exploded.

Caseless bullets are a matter that the Army is responsible for internally. He wants to ask the Navy to share the responsibility equally. The Navy can shirk the problem by saying that the Navy has no right to intervene in the internal affairs of the Army.

However, if he really develops caseless bullets.

The benefits all went to the Navy.

He worked hard for several years, and all the benefits came from the navy.

Watching the navy take advantage was even more uncomfortable than suffering the loss himself.

What pissed him off the most was that the navy had clearly taken advantage, yet it was still being arrogant in front of him.

If it weren't for his age, he wouldn't be able to beat the opponent.

Tojo is even about to challenge Oikawa to a samurai duel.

"snort."

Tojo returned to his office.

"Let me know who made the proposal for caseless bullets."

Tojo shouted, slamming the table.

The staff officer immediately went to investigate.

Soon, the staff came back with the documents.

"It's Takeshi Higashino, the division commander of the independent transportation division in the southeast theater."

"By the way, it is said that he has a close relationship with the Xinheng family."

the staff officer said.

"snort--"

Tojo swallowed the words that reached his lips and turned them into a cold snort.

If he were to be just an ordinary division commander, he, the Minister of War, would not be able to do whatever he wanted.

But once the Xinheng family is involved, things become not that simple.

If the other party is really very close to the Xinheng family, he has angered the Xinheng family because of Higashino Takeshi's incident.

His position as Minister of War may not be secure.

At least, he couldn't do anything to Wei Wu until a clear and substantial handle fell into his hands.

However, Tojo was unwilling to suffer this loss.

Tojo sat in his seat and pondered for a while, and finally said: "Send an order to Higashino Takeshi to take full responsibility for the caseless bullets. He must comply with His Majesty the Emperor's requirements to achieve finalization in one year, mass production in two years, and full production in three years. Change your clothes!"

The order quickly reached Wei Wu's hands.

Wei Wu originally planned to find something to do for the Japanese scientific research system, but unexpectedly, this boomerang actually hit him.

However, I took the order and read it twice carefully.

A smile appeared on Wei Wu's face again.

Responsible for the supply and replacement of bullets for the entire army, this is a huge job.

Tojo actually put him in this position, which was no less than throwing a mouse into a rice vat.

Throw Wei Wu into Paramount.

The untouched hands were full of oil, and Wei Wu felt sorry for himself.

If you were an ordinary person, after receiving this order, you would probably worry about what you would do if you could not complete the task.

Be in constant panic all day long.

But Wei Wu was different.

Wei Wu had the ability to predict the future.

Wei Wu calculated that after three years, it would be 44 years.

At that time, Japan was already in dire straits and was in dire straits.

It’s hard to say whether I can take care of myself at that time.

Moreover, under Wei Wu's operation, the strength of the base area has increased hundreds of times compared to history.

By 1944, Japan's situation will definitely be worse than in history.

I'm afraid that all the occupied areas in the mainland direction will be lost.

The army's wealth, the millions of Kwantung Army troops, may be wiped out.

When the time comes, Tojo will probably be the first to commit seppuku.

Still have time to cause trouble for yourself?

However, not in a hurry, Wei Wu still looked through the documents carefully, wondering how he could use this authority to make some profits.

After carefully reading the document twice, Wei Wu suddenly had an idea.

This order is related to research and development, so can he allocate scientific research resources across the country?

Can everything about bullets, gunpowder, propellant, materials science and even all surrounding resources, equipment and manpower be called upon?

This range is too large.

Not only the scientific research institutions of various factories and companies can be called upon.

Even, in theory, he can transfer people and equipment from universities and research institutes.

After all, the order in his hand was signed by the Emperor.

The two armies of the empire were implicated.

It is related to the future rise and fall of the entire empire.

With this tiger skin, within three years, he can do whatever he wants with the resources included.

Others might want to consider what would happen if so many resources were wasted without research.

But Wei Wu was not worried at all.

Three years later, it’s hard to say whether Japan will still be there or not. Are you still worried about being settled by the Autumn Queen?

It has the right not to be invalidated upon expiration.

Thinking of this, Wei Wu immediately sent a telegram to Xinhenghuannai and consulted Xinhenghuannai, all domestic research institutes and universities related to gunpowder, propellant, and materials.

Xinheng Huannai quickly sent back a list.

The above involves all the top gunpowder and materials-related research institutes in Japan.

Across various consortiums, national universities, private universities, and private research institutions.

"so much!"

Look at the names on the list.

Wei Wu felt like he had found a treasure.

If these things are not destroyed in the Tokyo bombing, they will become the cornerstone of Japan's recovery.

Will Wei Wu give Japan a chance to recover?

It can't be.

Wei Wu decided to dig out the roots of Japan.

He immediately issued orders to the organizations on the list one by one.

All agencies are required to immediately bring all materials and experimental equipment to the southeast theater to gather.

This is an order from His Majesty the Emperor.

Anyone who refuses to comply will be punished with treason.

Theoretically speaking, Wei Wu was biting off the skin of a tiger.

Even if the other party cannot refuse, resentment will arise deep in his heart.

There will inevitably be discord in the future.

It is not conducive to Wei Wu's future development.

It's a bit self-defeating.

But does Wei Wu care?

Would he care about the inner thoughts of a group of kidnapped piglets?

Totally impossible.

Wei Wu was sure that these people did not dare to disobey the emperor's order.

As for after arriving in the southeast war zone, should he let him shape whether it is round or flat?

Therefore, Wei Wu felt confident in doing these things.

After receiving Wei Wu's order, those public and private universities were the first to respond.

In other words, they were forced to respond.

After receiving Wei Wu's telegram, the navy's land guard came to help in person.

After all, this is related to their one Yamato-class battleship every year.

They couldn't help but not take it seriously.

In order to help these people move, these guys in the Navy even volunteered several transport ships and several cruisers.

Specialized in helping transport various equipment.

The originally quiet port became noisy again.
