"Your Majesty, Lord Gu has signed the Munich Agreement on behalf of the Empire. The Sudetenland, already German. Even if the Czechs were against it, it would have no effect. Imperial Prime Minister Yang Du sighed.

"There is no way to do this, and this may be the sorrow of a small country. In the face of the game of big countries, small countries can only be used as pawns. Wu Haoxuan saw this more profoundly. Weak countries have always had no diplomacy, and have only become the object of oppression by powerful countries. In the face of the expansion of the Germans, Britain, France and other countries chose to sacrifice the interests of the Czechs in order to protect their own interests.

"Hitler's ambitions were not confined to the Sudetenland. Soon, they will have their hands on what is left of the Czech Republic, as well as Slovakia. In this case, war may break out next year, and we must be prepared for war. Wu Haoxuan said.

Yang Du nodded, the current international situation is indeed very tense, and there is a lot of rain about to come. It can be said that although Britain, France, and other countries tried their best to avoid war, they were of no use at all. The wheels of history are rolling forward, war is about to break out, and no one can stop it.

"In the wars of the future, the Empire will have to win. Therefore, the empire must do its best to prepare for war. Luckily, we've been preparing for this for a few years. So far, we have prepared very well, and the chances of our victory during the war will be very high. "Wu Haoxuan is still very satisfied with the war preparations of the Empire* military. All sorts of new equipment have already been installed in the troops. And in the daily training, it has exerted its combat effectiveness. Once the war breaks out, then these military equipment of the empire will definitely have amazing effects, which will let the Western countries have a good look at the strength of the empire and make them regret becoming enemies of the empire.

"Your Majesty, our current preparations for war are proceeding in an orderly manner. However, there is one thing that must be changed as soon as possible. Otherwise, it may affect our performance in future wars. Yang Du said.

Wu Haoxuan nodded, whether it was the Imperial Cabinet or the Imperial * military, a large number of leaders were very old. Many are over 70 years old. In this case, it will not be conducive to the operation of the government and the army in the future. In the event of war, the empire will enter a state of war. Both the cabinet and the military will be running at full capacity. When the time comes, it will probably be difficult for these people to eat.

"I'll think about it, and in a month, I'll announce a new personnel order." Wu Haoxuan said.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Whatever His Majesty decides, the Cabinet will fully support it. I believe that even those who have been removed will have no complaints. After all, this is done so that the Empire can win the next war. Yang Du said.

Wu Haoxuan nodded, although he knew that the Chinese were very greedy for power. But. The interests of the empire must not be undermined by this. He knew very well how important the future war was. If China can win, then China will become the hegemon of the future. The whole world will be under China's control. Anyone who threatens this, Wu Haoxuan will deal with it mercilessly.

After Yang Du left, Wu Haoxuan began to think deeply.

First of all, in terms of the cabinet, Yang Du is in his sixties. Although this age is not young, he is still competent for the position of prime minister, not to mention, Yang Du is loyal to him, and he can control the cabinet, which can make Wu Haoxuan more worry-free and put more energy into the army. After all, winning future wars is the main thing, that's the most important thing.

"Foreign Minister Tang Shaoyi is in her seventies, and it is long overdue for her to retreat. Gu Shaochuan has done a very good job over the years, let him take over the post of foreign minister. I believe that Tang Shaoyi himself has no opinions. Wu Haoxuan thought secretly.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer can be replaced by Vice Minister Kong Yongzhi. The other ministers of industry, commerce, and interior have also been replaced by new people. In this way, the Empire's cabinet can be guaranteed to function normally during the war.

(Don't ask Lao Yu why he chooses the senior officials and generals of the Democratic Party, because the Rabbit Party can't touch it at all, and if you touch it, you will die!) ）

The movement of the army, that's the most important thing. After all, the army of the empire will be fundamental. As for the General Staff, Marshal Jiang Baili was undoubtedly qualified. He is only in his fifties now, and at this level, he can be regarded as in the prime of life. Since he was in charge of the General Staff, Wu Haoxuan is still relatively relieved. As for the candidate for the most important head of the Operations Department under the General Staff, Wu Haoxuan still favored Bai Jiansheng. In another time and space, Bai Jiansheng is known as Xiao Zhuge , and his personal ability is still very prominent. He is only in his forties, and he can hold important positions for a long time. There should be no problem in bringing him to the post of chief of operations and concurrently holding the post of deputy chief of the general staff.

Marshal Shi Qingshan, Minister of War, is only in his fifties, and he can be regarded as Wu Haoxuan's uncle, so it is undoubtedly appropriate for him to continue to serve as Minister of War. After all, the army is the largest branch of the empire, and it is also what Wu Haoxuan must firmly hold in his hands.

The commanders of the various army groups below, this is also something that needs to be taken into account. General Cai Songpo, commander of the 1st Group Army, is undoubtedly a very suitable candidate. Wu Haoxuan also planned to put him in a higher position after the outbreak of war.

The commander of the 2nd Group Army, Wu Haoxuan was under the command of General Zhang Yunnong, who was also one of the three heroes of non-commissioned officers, although he died early in another time and space. However, the person who can be called Jiang Baili and Cai Songpo is incompetent?

Next, the commander of the other eighteen group armies of the Imperial Army, Wu Haoxuan, also had a candidate. They are: Lieutenant General Zhu Yi, Commander of the 3rd Group Army, Lieutenant General Li Delin, Commander of the 4th Group Army, Lieutenant General He Jing, Commander of the 5th Group Army, Lieutenant General Yan Baichuan, Commander of the 6th Group Army, Lieutenant General Tang Mengxiao, Commander of the 7th Group Army, Lieutenant General Liu Fucheng, Commander of the 8th Group Army, Lieutenant General Cheng Songyun, Commander of the 9th Group Army, Lieutenant General Song Mingxuan, Commander of the 10th Group Army, Lieutenant General Chen Xuehuo, Commander of the 11th Group Army, Lieutenant General Xu Cichen, Commander of the 12th Group Army, and Lieutenant General Gu Mosan, Commander of the 13th Group Army. Lieutenant General Huang Jianling, Commander of the 14th Group Army, Lieutenant General Hu Shoushan, Commander of the 15th Group Army, Lieutenant General Zhu Yimin, Commander of the 16th Group Army, Lieutenant General Yu Yuqi, Commander of the 17th Group Army, Lieutenant General Tang Keqin, Commander of the 18th Group Army, Lieutenant General Fu Yisheng, Commander of the 19th Group Army, and Lieutenant General Zhang Benrao, Commander of the 20th Group Army.

In addition to these twenty armies, the Imperial Praetorian Guard was reorganized into three Panzer armies. Wu Haoxuan also made arrangements for the candidates for the three group armies: Lieutenant General Chen Cixiu, commander of the 1st Armored Group Army, Lieutenant General Xue Boling, commander of the 2nd Armored Group Army, and Lieutenant General Wei Junru, commander of the 3rd Armored Group Army.

On the navy side, the Minister of the Navy, Marshal Sa Zhenbing, is almost eighty years old. Although, he is still in good spirits now. However, in the event of the outbreak of a future war, the Navy will become the main force in the confrontation between the Reich and the United States. The pressure on the Navy will be very great. And Marshal Sa Zhenbing is so old, it will definitely be difficult for him to continue to hold this position. Therefore, Wu Haoxuan needs to replace this.

Not only is the Minister of the Navy too old, but the current commander of the Pacific Fleet, Admiral Liu Guanxiong, and Chief of Staff Admiral Li Dingxin, as well as the commander of the South Ocean Fleet, Admiral Li He, are all relatively old. Only the chief of staff of the South Sea Fleet is now in his sixties. However, such an age is no longer suitable for commanding a fleet at sea to fight.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Wu Haoxuan decided to promote Lin Jianzhang to the rank of marshal of the Navy and become the Minister of the Navy. As for Marshal Sa Zhenbing, he retired. Admiral Liu Guanxiong, commander of the Pacific Fleet, Admiral Li Dingxin, chief of staff, and Admiral Li He, commander of the South Ocean Fleet, were all promoted to the rank of marshal and then retired. The commanders of the two fleets of the Imperial Navy will be reappointed.

Chen Houfu, commander of the Imperial Aircraft Carrier Fleet, was promoted to admiral and became commander of the Pacific Fleet, and Vice Admiral Lin Xiangjin became chief of staff of the Pacific Fleet. As for the Nanyang Fleet, Admiral Chen Shiying served as the commander, and Vice Admiral Yang Jingting served as the chief of staff of the Nanyang Fleet.

The aircraft carrier fleet of the Imperial Navy was temporarily under the command of the Pacific Fleet of the Imperial Navy, and after the Americans were severely damaged in the early stage of the war, a part of it was divided into the South Sea Fleet. After all, the biggest enemy of the Imperial Navy is the Americans, and defeating the Americans, that's the most important thing.

Since the Air Force was the last unit to be established in the Empire, most of the generals were relatively young. Because of the Air Force's remarkable achievements in preparing for war, Wu Haoxuan fulfilled his promise and appointed General Wang Boping as Minister of the Air Force, and in addition, the commanders of the various air clusters under the Air Force were also appointed by the generals of the Air Force.

Although, this time the imperial cabinet and military changes are very large. However, in order for the empire to win future wars, it is necessary to replace the old generals and let the young people rise to the top before the war breaks out. After all, for the sake of the empire's national fortunes, it is necessary to prepare the relevant aspects. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, the consequences will be very serious.

In December 4636, the emperor Wu Haoxuan issued a new personnel transfer order with the situation of the Holy Decree. After this order was issued, it caused an uproar in the Imperial Cabinet and the military. Some of the people who were transferred were very dissatisfied with this. However, under Wu Haoxuan's strong suppression, the entire transfer was carried out smoothly. (To be continued.) )
