: 0.073s Scan: 0.052sHans and the Russian bear were fighting fiercely in Europe. On one hand, they were busy transporting weapons and ammunition to the Celestial Empire, and on the other hand, they were also thinking about whether they should send troops to help the Celestial Empire.
This information was soon discovered by the British. Although their intelligence network in Hans was destroyed by Hans, their intelligence network in other parts of Europe was still operating normally. Therefore, when Hans’ military train loaded with a large number of arms and weapons entered the Russian bear through the Siberian Railway of the Russian bear, they learned this information!
And this information was soon sent to the Foot Basin by the British. The Foot Basin was still their ally at this time, although the British did not support the Foot Basin to launch an invasion of the Celestial Empire, because they did not want the big fat sheep of the Celestial Empire to be swallowed by the Foot Basin.
But this was just an internal contradiction of dividing the spoils. When the Foot Basin faced the threat of foreign countries, especially the Russian bear and Hans, the British still put aside their past grudges and prepared to join hands with the Foot Basin to fight the enemy.
“This is absurd! It seems that Hans has made up his mind to go against us!”
When the news reached Jiaoben, the people of Jiaoben were immediately furious!
Hans had no grudges against them in the past or in the present, and they could not understand why Hans had to make things difficult for them and go against them!
“In my opinion, we should just declare war on Hans. In this way, when we fight to the Celestial Empire, we can confiscate Hans’ assets in the Celestial Empire!”
The Celestial Empire had signed many cooperation agreements with Hans before, and provided Hans with the mining rights of many mines. Many of these mines have already started production. For the Foot Basin, which is very short of resources, they are very eager to obtain these mines!
“Declare war? For what reason?”
Prime Minister Jiaoben was frightened by the audacity of these guys in the army. He never thought that these guys would actually want to declare war on Hans!
Although Hans is far away in Europe, if they really declare war on them, Hans will not be able to fight back in a short time and will not threaten them.
But Hans is the second most powerful industrial country in the world after all, and their strength cannot be underestimated. Provoking such an existence is ultimately a hidden danger for Jiaoben!
“They interfered with our invasion of the Celestial Empire and prevented us from implementing the great strategy of the Eight-horizon Universe. Isn’t that enough?”
The young army members are completely unreasonable when they are arrogant!
Seeing them so righteous, not to mention the Prime Minister, even the navy of the Foot Basin couldn’t stand it! They are really idiots in the army. Are their heads full of muscles?
Invading the Celestial Empire is obviously an immoral thing morally. They are not the righteous side, so they can’t use this as an excuse to declare war on Hans!
This war is an unjust war. Hans, who helps the weak Celestial Empire resist the invaders, is the righteous side.
So declaring war on Hans with this reason is simply asking for trouble.
When the navy heard this, they began to doubt. Do these idiots in the army really not know, or are they pretending not to know?
If they really don’t know, then they have to doubt the IQ of this group of people!
But if these people know this kind of thing but still lie to do it, it would be more terrible!
“Do you mean that the young army members are going to go it alone?”
Lieutenant General Kato Kanji, the commander of the Combined Fleet, looked seriously at a colonel in the Navy. His name was Yamamoto Isoroku, and he was the deputy of the previous commander of the Combined Fleet, Suzuki Kantaro.
He was only 42 years old this year, still very young, but he was very talented, and had a lot of practical experience in the front-line troops. He was the leader among the young people in the Navy.
Suzuki Kantaro had been attacked by the Army because of the sinking of the Mikasa and the Saikyo Maru, and finally resigned under pressure. Before he resigned, he recommended Yamamoto Isoroku to Kato Kanji, hoping that Kato Kanji could cultivate and promote Yamamoto Isoroku.
Kato Kanji still remembered what Suzuki Kantaro said:”Don’t look at this guy who is not even a general now, but when we are old and dead, the future of the Navy will rely on this guy to lead, so Mr. Kato, please be sure to train him well and cultivate an excellent talent for our future Navy!”
Although he didn’t know Yamamoto Isoroku very well, Kato Kanji admired Suzuki Kantaro very much, so he did not doubt the other party’s eyes, and always kept Yamamoto Isoroku by his side to train him, hoping that he could take up the responsibility as soon as possible and take the flag of the Combined Fleet from the hands of these old men!
In this case, Kato Kanji had to take Yamamoto Isoroku’s opinion seriously.
“Yes, I think that under the current circumstances, once Hans’s batch of arms enters the Celestial Empire, the Celestial Empire’s strength will definitely be greatly enhanced. Therefore, if the military wants to achieve its goal, it must immediately provoke a war between the Celestial Empire and our country, making the situation out of control, and then they can gain military merit from this war!”
Because he had cooperated with the group of idiots in the army before, and several of his friends also served in the army, Yamamoto Fifty-six was very familiar with the situation of the Foot Basin Army!
“How big do you think this possibility is, and if the military really wants to go it alone, then when might it break out?”
Kanji Kato asked with some concern. There is no problem with going to war with the Celestial Empire. This is something they had already discussed. It is only a matter of time before going to war.
However, the young and vigorous faction had previously expressed their intention to declare war on Hans, which made Kato Kanji very worried that they would really do it!
If they really did that, Hans would not be able to swallow his anger and not express it.
Originally, Hans could only come from the sea, and if they came from the sea, they would face the same situation as the Baltic Fleet of the Russian Bear in the Russo-Japanese War. They had to travel tens of thousands of kilometers from Europe to Asia, and experience several months of drifting on the sea before they could reach the Far East.
By the time they arrived in the Far East exhausted, the Foot Basin’s fleet had already been ready for battle, so if the battle was fought at sea, the Foot Basin’s hope of winning was still great!
But the situation was different later. , the Hans people hooked up with the Mao Xiong people. They didn’t have to sail across the sea for several months. They could take the train directly from their homeland, then transfer to Mao Xiong’s territory, and take the train all the way here!
With the speed and transportation volume of the train, the German troops could reach China in just 0 days from their homeland, and within ten days, it would be unlikely for the Foot Basin to end the war of invasion of China and eat up the entire Northeast region!
So the war is very likely to become a war of attrition, and the two sides of the war of attrition are Hans + Mao Xiong + North Korea!
Hans’s strong industrial strength enables them to have a large number of advanced weapons, and Mao Xiong and China’s abundant population and resources provide guarantees for these factories of Hans. With these three countries combined, the Foot Basin really can’t beat it!
Therefore, Kato Kanji was a little worried. If the young army really couldn’t tell the situation and mistakenly declared war on Hans, it would be bad!
“I think this possibility is very high, but I am not sure about the exact time of their action. However, I think they should have been planning this a long time ago!”
Yamamoto Isoroku’s words increased Kato Kanji’s worries, and he finally couldn’t sit still!
This matter is too serious. The economic situation and social security conditions in the country do not allow them to fall into a long war of attrition. The purpose of their war is to transfer domestic contradictions, not to further amplify domestic contradictions, so they want a quick victory, not a protracted war!
“Come on, pack up and come out with me!”
“Where are you going?”
Yamamoto Fifty-six saw Kato Kanji’s hurried look and was a little curious, wondering where he was going.
“Go to His Majesty Tianhuang’s palace. I want to report this matter to His Majesty Tianhuang in person!”
……
Just as Kato Kanji was rushing to Tianhuang’s palace with Yamamoto Isoroku in a hurry, preparing to report the matter to Tianhuang, in the northeast region, several young soldiers took advantage of the night and quietly sneaked to the vicinity of the Manchuria-Mongolia Railway and placed several bombs on the tracks.
A moment later, the bomb exploded. The Japanese soldiers who had been prepared immediately carried the bodies of several Northeast Army soldiers and placed them near the explosion point, artificially creating the illusion that the Chinese army destroyed the railway!
The next day, the Kwantung Army immediately took advantage of this opportunity and announced that in order to protect the normal operation of the Manchuria-Mongolia Railway, they would send troops north to take over the railway! The
Chinese soldiers received a strict order to resist to the end, so the first moment the Japanese army stepped out of the boundary, a fierce battle broke out between the two sides! The
Liutiaohu Incident broke out!
