Cancer cells are mutated from normal cells and can grow, metastasize, and transform indefinitely!
What Japan suffered from after the Meiji Restoration was political cancer. Even in later generations, most people regard Japan's Meiji Restoration as a successful reform. When Japan reflected on its mistakes in World War II, it also positioned the September 18th Incident.
, after starting the road of expansion and aggression, but the actual situation is far from this.
The so-called freezing of three feet is not the cold of a day! Japan's Meiji Restoration was not a successful reform. On the contrary, it was this reform that made Japan embark on a path of no return, and even lost its basic capabilities as a normal country!
Judging from Japan's national policy, Japan has chosen the country's way out over aggression and expansion since the Meiji Era. This expansionist ambition is like a cancer cell, rapidly expanding in all walks of life in Japan, up to the emperor.
, down to the traffickers and lackeys, all regard expansion as the only way out for Japan, and those who support this ambition are the emperor who became deified through the Meiji Restoration, and the warlords and plutocrats that emerged during the Meiji Restoration.
They kidnapped the entire Japan and eventually sent Japan into the abyss of hell!
At this time, Saionji Konobo put forward the idea of ending the war decently, which made everyone present go crazy, and the most violent one was Emperor Hirohito. In Hirohito's eyes, this last elder was simply a fool, facing
For a behemoth like China, since the beginning of the war, it will be a hearty victory, just like the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, which will completely interrupt China's rise. If not, even if it is a tie, China's recovery ability will be far beyond
Japan, Japan will definitely lose in the next war.
At this time, Tanaka Yiichi also looked at Saionji Kōno with a sideways triangular look. As the successor of Yamagata Aritomo, he and Saionji Kōno were originally at odds with each other. Now that he saw that the old guy had angered the emperor, he also
I am happy to add insult to injury.
"Senior, do you know what it means to back down from the Chinese? It means that since the arrival of the Meiji Emperor, the greater East Asian hegemony created by countless Japanese patriots has been completely lost, and Japan will once again become a country under the shadow of China.
As a small island country, there is no way out. At this juncture, any cowardice is a crime against the country!"
Lord Xiyuanji rolled his eyelids, glanced at Tanaka Yiichi, and sneered slightly at the corner of his mouth: "Tanaka-kun, what you said makes sense, but can you tell me how to completely defeat the China people?"
Of course, Tanaka Yiichi knew very well that it would not be easy to break the situation, but he could not back down, so he said: "Of course I have a way to win. The key to breaking the deadlock lies in the navy. The navy should fight decisively with the China Navy as soon as possible.
They sank several of their broken ships, and then harassed the coastal areas of China. Of course, the army also increased its troops in large numbers, recruited all the retired soldiers, and formed five more divisions, all of which were dedicated to North Korea. I believe
The loyal and brave Japanese warriors will surely win!"
Tanaka Yiichi still shifted the main responsibility to the navy, and at this time, Yamamoto Gonbei was angry. He was not willing to use his precious navy to fight in China's coastal waters, because there were not only Chinese warships there, but also
With a much larger air force, Japan had already suffered a loss once in Qingdao, and no one wanted to repeat the same mistake a second time.
"Tanaka-kun, do you know how powerful the China Air Force is? A hasty decisive battle would be extremely detrimental to the combined fleet!"
"Strong? Japan has never faced weak opponents! But Japan has always been the winner. You just lost the courage to fight. War requires strategy. China has thousands of miles of sea territory. I don't believe every one of them.
If you can defend everything tightly, can't you look for the enemy's weaknesses?"
Yamamoto Gonbei was about to retort when suddenly Hirohito spoke. Hirohito hated the arguments of these civil and military officials, elders and ministers the most. Everyone only knew how to shirk responsibility, but did not know how to share the pressure for him, the emperor. They were like a bunch of people.
The old bastard was angry in his heart, and there was a hint of coldness in his voice.
"Yamamoto Aikyo, I think Tanaka Aikyo's words are very reasonable. Doesn't the navy advocate offense? Isn't your only plan to blockade it?"
As soon as Yamamoto Gonbei heard Hirohito's words, he knew that the emperor was also beginning to favor Tanaka Giichi, and his situation suddenly became embarrassing.
"Your Majesty, I am scared. The navy has indeed made a plan. We have chosen three attack points. The first one is to directly attack Tianjin in China through the Bohai Sea, thereby threatening Bei Jing. This is the most important area in China. As long as it is attacked
Attacking can disrupt China's deployment; the second plan is to attack China's Zhoushan Islands, and then lead the troops to Shanghai, which is the economic center of China and its position is also very important; the third plan is to bypass the Taiwan Strait and enter the South China Sea.
, cutting off China’s South China Sea route, so that China cannot obtain strategic materials such as rubber, and it can also attack China’s most important shipbuilding base, Qinzhou Shipyard, and also destroy the China’s submarine base!”
After Yamamoto Gonbei finished speaking, he felt a cold gaze staring at him, and the owner of this gaze was the Emperor Hirohito. Soon the cold voice spoke again.
"Yamamoto Aiki, since the Navy has drawn up so many plans, why are they not implemented at all? Are you waiting for the Empire to be defeated before you implement them?"
The implication of Hirohito's accusation was so obvious that Yamamoto Gonbei couldn't bear it anymore and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, we lack effective intelligence on the Chinese people, let alone their specific troop deployment. I'm worried that rash actions will cause incompetence."
Anticipated losses!”
"What are the intelligence agencies doing? Don't they know the importance of accurate intelligence to the empire?"
Prime Minister Reijiro Wakatsuki, who had been silent for a long time, was sweating on his head. Originally, he was basically just a decoration as Prime Minister. He neither had the capital to fight against the military nor had enough charisma to control the government. He was a typical example of being stuck in a trap.
But at this time, I had to speak: "Your Majesty, the intelligence department must speed up the action and never hinder the empire!"
Hirohito snorted slightly: "You people are all full of youth. The empire is far from reaching the height it should be, but you have lost your enterprising spirit. This is the greatest tragedy of the empire!"
As soon as everyone heard that the emperor had condemned him, they fell to the ground one after another and kept pleading guilty. However, Hirohito had already disappeared long ago. These civil and military officials and senior ministers also knew that at this juncture, there could be no retreat, and a decisive battle against China must be carried out as soon as possible.
Only in this way can the defeat be saved!
While Tokyo was thinking hard, a Chinese hidden dragon had quietly arrived in the northern waters of Okinawa, where Japanese warships often appeared. The commander of this warship was Tang Lin, and his warship was already drifting at sea.
It lasted for nearly a month. Being at sea for a long time was not a comfortable thing. The submarine was only equipped with some canned food. In addition, it received some supplies when it sank a Japanese cargo ship.
The disgustingly monotonous food and the strong noise torture left everyone unable to eat well and unable to sleep. If it weren't for his incomparable desire for victory, Tang Lin didn't know if he could persevere.
They have been here for more than three days and have seen Japanese warships many times, but Tang Lin is not in a hurry to take action. These warships are either too small or have strict protection and are in large formations.
, attacking rashly will only expose yourself.
There is great danger in hiding in such a busy sea area. Japanese ships will pass by from time to time. If they are discovered, there will be fatal danger.
Three days had passed in this hide-and-seek game. Suddenly, a huge warship appeared on the sea and was heading here quickly. Moreover, there were not many escorting warships around this warship.
, the soldier responsible for the observation hurriedly reported the situation to Tang Lin.
Tang Lin was also overjoyed. He hurriedly observed through the periscope. The warship was getting closer and closer to the hidden area of the submarine. Tang Lin also saw the situation of the warship clearly. At this time, his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
Tosa!
This warship is the Japanese aircraft carrier Tosa. The Tosa was originally the second aircraft carrier of the Kaga class and the sister ship of the Kaga. Due to the restrictions of the Washington Treaty, the Tosa was converted into an aircraft carrier. This aircraft carrier
Although it is announced to the outside world that it is only 35,000 tons, China has obtained detailed information that the tonnage of this warship has exceeded 40,000 tons. It can be said that this is the largest aircraft carrier in the world.
It is also the Japanese warship that the Chinese Navy is most worried about. Japan now has a total of three aircraft carriers, one is the Tosa and the other is the Akagi. Both of them are big guys, and their displacement is much greater than the Qidian. In addition, there are
There is a Feng Xiang.
Although China also has three aircraft carriers, China's three warships are really unable to compare with Japan's three. Of course, China still has the advantage of carrier-based aircraft, but it also worries the Chinese Navy. This is China's late
The reason why there has been no decisive battle with the Japanese Navy.
Now the Tosa, the most threatening ship, has appeared in front of Tang Lin. How could he not be extremely excited? As long as this warship can be sunk, the balance of power between China and Japan will immediately reverse.
Tang Lin didn't care about anything anymore. Even if he and the entire submarine were sacrificed, it was worth it to exchange for the Tosa. The submarine quietly surfaced, adjusted its attack angle, and launched its four torpedoes.
Everyone is ready, just waiting for the order.
At this time, the Tosa was unaware of the approaching danger. This time, Tokyo was eager to fight and sent out the newly launched Tosa, hoping to use the Tosa and Akagi to form a powerful naval aviation force to fight against the Chinese Air Force.
, providing cover for battleships to attack China's coast.
Due to the emergency mobilization, the Tosa's auxiliary ships were not fully equipped. This gave China a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Tang Lin barely controlled his excitement and uttered two words from his mouth: "She!"
Soon the four torpedoes were fired at the Tosa together, like a fan, but the sailors on the Tosa did not notice it at this time. They were still enjoying the honor of serving on the world's largest aircraft carrier.
!
At this moment, someone finally discovered four water lines appearing on the sea surface, heading towards them quickly.
At this time, these people suddenly realized that it was a torpedo!
A shrill alarm sounded immediately, but it was already too late. Except for one torpedo that deviated, the other three torpedoes all hit the Tosa. In an instant, the earth-shattering explosion sound came out, shocking everyone.
, this aircraft carrier that Japan was so proud of has become the aircraft carrier with the shortest service time in the world! (To be continued.
