"Navy guys, hurry up and straighten your back like a man!"

Unlike the sadness of the British, in Japan, separated by a sea, Ambassador Shigeru Kawagoe and intelligence personnel's analysis and summary flowing, the quarrel between the Army General Staff and the Admiralty was unexpectedly not very intense, but just a group of young and passionate officers sent "congratulatory messages" with sarcastic words; the radical Hideki Tojo even gave Mine Mitsumasato a set of women's dresses and advised him to "wear bravely, anyway, your actions have already broken through the bottom line of men."

There is no man in the Imperial Navy!

Compared to the heroic sacrifice of the Army, what has the Navy done over the years? There are only two words that can leave people with memory - failure! A complete failure!

What's even more excessive is that even though he has failed, he still has no courage to take revenge! He said again and again that the enemy situation is unclear, wrong judgment, and the safety of the empire for thousands of years, and should not be moved without action... They are all excuses, just say they are afraid, they must be afraid! They are afraid of those vulnerable Chinese people!

Although they were defeated, the Army Warriors used unnecessary facts to prove that they used sacrifice to exchange for the greatest shock to the Chinese team. Next time, as long as the next time, they will completely eliminate those enemies that once brought blows and shame to the army. Can the Navy's crotch be straightened up?

Wait, from a few years ago, when they were penniless, they even pulled out the battleships. Next, will they have to wait until they throw the shells into Tokyo Bay?!

Silent or sarcastic condemnation, slapped louder than slapping in the face of the navy. Even Irokuro Yamamoto could not bear it, dragging his good friend Minuhimasato sighed: "Minesan, the direction of the empire is no longer the past we support. As soldiers, we still have to assume our own responsibilities!"

Military Command, Shipma Headquarters, Combined Fleet and other naval chiefs grabbed bald heads and gathered together. Fumimi Miyagi Hiroko, with a dark face and coldly chopped back and forth with his eye knife. This time, he was really angry. The navy was sucked with big ears and melon seeds, but he was not prepared at all in advance. As a royal family, his old face was dull, and as the most loyal guard of the imperial country, the navy he commanded repeatedly failed and could not explain it even if the world came.

Mine Mitsumasa took off his hat and said calmly in a soothing and low tone: "I should apologize to you and the Emperor! If it weren't for my cowardice and hesitation, we might be able to completely curb the expansion of the Chinese Navy!"

Three years ago, if he hadn't withdrawn his troops in the last battle and fought hard, he might have been able to eliminate the weak Chinese task force at that time among the waves of the South China Sea. Of course, just if.

What was the battle like? Everyone present was very clear. The task force used all the magic tricks. Before even touching the shadow, the opponent killed two battleships and seriously injured two aircraft carriers. In fact, more than half of his combat power had been lost and he had to face the torture of the long night. However, the opponent used his unknown special ability to continuously bombard the long range main gun at night, and was beaten one-sidedly. How many of the first fleet that attacked at that time could come back alive? It was not necessarily true.

But someone has to take the blame, right? He happened to be caught up with everything, and he couldn't explain it without saying a few words!

Yamamoto Iroru could not watch his friend stand alone. As a sub-author of the navy, it was his duty to stand up for the boss. He stood up with the table, touched his smooth hair, and said earnestly: "The misjudgment of the development speed of the Chinese navy is not a problem for anyone. In fact, until today, we have seriously inaccurate the information on China's intelligence, and underestimated their ambitions and the speed of technological development. I don't think anyone should argue about this. The most important thing at present is to determine how to deal with it as soon as possible. My suggestion is to completely eliminate it at all costs!"

In order to increase his tone, he clenched his fists and waved it hard.

Fushimimiya nodded expressionlessly, but was not in a hurry to express her opinions. She glanced at Lieutenant General Ueda Soshige, the Minister of the Shipmama headquarters: "Minister Ueda, what is the result of the analysis of the new battleship in China?"

Ueda Soshihiro pushed his glasses with his hand, drooped the corner of his mouth and looked down at the report that was hurriedly put together in his hand. He introduced it dullly: "Based on our several intelligence collection and sorting judgments, the standard displacement of the new Chinese capital ship should not exceed the 35,000 tons of the jump limit, the nine-door 16-inch main guns and 12 double-equipped secondary guns are all correct with the information leaked in the early days. We believe that it should be a finished product of the American capital ship! According to the judgment of China's technology and industrial level, because there is no direct order to purchase the equipment and steel required for construction from the United States and Germany countries, if they produce them themselves, in order to ensure the firepower as much as possible, the armor thickness should not be very large, and it is probably equivalent to the Nagatoshi, or worse than that!"

"Oh! That's already quite amazing!" Many people exaggerated.

It was only a few years since the Chinese began to build warships. The empire's industrial capacity was accumulated over nearly half a century from Meiji to the construction of the Changmen. It seemed that China built its first warship six or seven years ago? At that time, their two main battleships, a light cruiser of only 4,000 tons, were built by Japan.

Now, it is already very scary to make it completely without purchasing major equipment and steel in other countries!

Mine Hiromasa frowned and interrupted, "We cannot underestimate the creativity of the Chinese people! The speed of technology development was completely different from that of now twenty years ago. It looks similar to the size of the "Nakamen" number, so how could the displacement be so small? The thickness or insufficient armor, but in terms of strength, we must consider that they have been strengthened by Germany's most advanced armored steel and special titanium alloys!"

Not to mention that he is incompetent as the Minister of Navy, he is still not inferior to the Shipbuilding Headquarters specializing in combat ship design. Besides, if he really wants to start fighting, he still has to lead the lead!

Nakatsu Uedan said "hi" with a dry "hi" and did not know whether it was agreed or disagreeing, and continued: "In addition, based on the earliest time of the news from China, the complete adjustment and personnel of these two warships are far from reaching the level of combat needs. Even if they started construction half a year early and carried out all their strength, it would only be the same as our new shipbuilding speed. Therefore, we judged that if we attacked at this time, there would be a great chance."

This time, even Fushimiya nodded slightly with approval. Unlike the army, the Navy can be sent to the battlefield after three months of training, and after fighting, it will be transformed from a new soldier into a veteran. The growth cycle is too long!

Just talk about construction. It takes at least one and a half years to launch the water. The commissioning and modification personnel are trained until they are put into service. It will definitely not be able to get out of here in less than three years. This is a commonly used indicator in the world. No matter how awesome the Chinese are, they cannot be stronger than the Japanese Navy. At this time, we hurriedly pulled out the two giant ships with bright surfaces to demonstrate, which was more like cheering ourselves up, attracting attention from all sides, and disrupting the audio-visual behavior.

There is no objection to this part of Lieutenant General Ueda's report.

"As for the new warships claimed by China, our judgment is that it is mostly bluffing. The most likely thing is to continue building multiple warships of the same level, 2 or 4, which is the limit of their economic endurance! And they do not have enough outstanding officers to support them. Their intention is just to trigger a new round of shipbuilding competition, trying to drag down the imperial economy and confuse the public."

Minashimasato also agreed, it’s nothing more, warships are not cargo ships, and the cost is too high! It’s normal to spend 50 or 60 million US dollars on one ship. How much money can the Chinese make up for? It can’t be afforded.

Let’s take a look at the Imperial Navy. The two consecutive battleships are replenished, the size of the eight ships, and the military expenditures are all scheduled to go five years later, otherwise they will not be able to get all together! The first two ships are now working overtime, and they are only barely launched. They will be the end of the year or next year at the fastest. They are in a hurry!

"If you consider the political influence as much as possible, you will take action this time no matter what." Fushimijimu almost expressed his opinion in a decisive tone. "We cannot watch the morale of the Chinese people be inspired. In that case, all the hard work will be wasted! The important members of the Chinese government who are friendly to us will be disappointed! Even for honor, the Navy must show its own attitude! Minister of Navy Mine, you must bravely shoulder the burden!"

"I understand!" A glimmer appeared on Minuchi Mitsumasa's face, and he bowed and agreed, and turned around and looked at Yamamoto Izuru.

Yamamoto's official sent a signal of support with encouragement and stood up and said, "I apply to serve as the commander of this attack."

Fushimiya looked around for a week and found no disputes among others. Minumasato Minai also agreed: "I agree that Yamamoto has the most say in the use of naval aviation."

"Then let's decide this way! I will report the details to His Majesty the Emperor."

Fushimimiya packed up at a very fast speed and left in a hurry as if she was burning her butt. Most of the others were unhappy with Minumasa and Yamamoto Irokuro, two famous conservatives. Most of the troubles were caused by them this time. The scolding outside was too ugly and could not be washed away even if it was burned. They also left after the meeting.

Mine Mitsumasa looked desolate and sighed: "San Yamamoto, the human relationship is warm and warm! I have turned my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditches... Alas, in short, the battle will be left to you, please be careful of the tricks of the Chinese people!"

Yamamoto Iroku patted his old friend's shoulder comfortingly: "I won't let them succeed. In the final analysis, naval operations still depend on determination and strength. We are confident and determined, but we are confident."

"Um!...I hope." Minai Mitsumasa looked out the window with a faint look, and the sky in the distance was confused.!~!
