After the time for the war against Japan was established, the Chinese Army was already operating at full strength. However, before that, the army was already ready. As the first wave of troops to fight against Japan, the Army's Second Group Army
, have already gathered in the two areas of Busan and Incheon in North Korea. The navy's support fleet has also been on standby at the Jeju Island base. After the attack order is issued, it can immediately launch an attack on Japan. For a time, the entire Northeast
The sub-region is filled with war clouds!
The actions of the Chinese ** team triggered the Japanese plan. All Japanese spies in China became active, including some spies who had been lurking for a long time, and they were exposed this time. They desperately wanted to get
The time when the Chinese ** team fought against Japan and the place where they landed. They probably knew that this was already related to the fate of Japan. If Japan was destroyed, their spies would be of little use. Therefore, everyone
Became active.
China's Ministry of Homeland Security and Military Intelligence also cooperated and carried out a devastating blow to these Japanese spies in China. In just two or three days, several Japanese spies were captured.
Ten people, including many Japanese spies hidden in the Chinese government, military and scientific research units, this time
All were dug out. However, the Japanese still did not get any precise information. Because the order to fight against Japan was personally issued by the emperor Wang Yuze, and only those who were present at the time knew about it. And these people were all from the empire.
As an important minister, it is naturally impossible for these Japanese spies to find out the specific situation.
However, this was enough to arouse Japan's tension. After the Sino-British negotiations ended, China and Britain signed a peace treaty, and the Japanese should be able to guess that China would attack Japan. The Japanese Army also acted frantically, with a large number of
The Japanese army is concentrated on Kyushu Island and southern Honshu, Japan. These two places are the closest to North Korea and also
The places most vulnerable to attack. In addition, important cities in Japan such as Tokyo are also key defense areas for Japan. The Japanese Army has expanded to two million troops, and they are also ready for battle. Although, many people know
, this may be a path that leads them to destruction. But for the already crazy Japanese, they have nothing to fear.
Tokyo, Japan, has become even more desolate. After entering autumn, the temperature in Tokyo slowly cooled down. However, due to the sparse population, Tokyo now looks more like an abandoned city. The total number of Japanese in the city is less than
One hundred thousand. Of course, excluding the Japanese Army's garrison. Tokyo is the focus of the Japanese Army's defense. Army Minister Katsura Taro deployed thirty elite divisions in Tokyo and nearby areas, with a total of 500,000 people, to defend Japan.
capital.
A horse-drawn carriage galloped down the deserted street, and the horses' hooves trampled on the road, leaving a "clatter" sound. In Japan, where food supply has become a problem, horse-drawn carriages are already a very luxurious thing.
, only the current Japanese ministers are eligible to enjoy it. Others can only walk, and powerful people may also ride bicycles.
The person sitting in the carriage is a Japanese man in his fifties. He is not tall, but very strong. He is the Japanese Army Minister Katsura Taro, now one of the most powerful people in Japan. However, the current Katsura Taro , is no longer as high-spirited as before. From the flash of eyes in his eyes, his panic can be clearly seen. According to the intelligence obtained from China by the spy agency of the Japanese Army Ministry, he already knew that China launched an attack on The war against Japan was already imminent. However, he had no idea how to survive this crisis or save his life.
Although the Japanese Army claims to have armed two million people, only half of them are equipped with rifles, and there are very few cannons and heavy machine guns. Most of the remaining people are equipped with old-fashioned rifles, and even some The old-fashioned muskets used decades ago. What's more, they still use cold weapons such as swords and guns. In addition to these regular troops, the Japanese Army also called on local soldiers to form a stand-up team. However, these stand-up teams were equipped with Weapons such as bamboo spears and bamboo knives. Although the number is huge, no one knows how effective they can be.
The carriage drove until it reached the Prime Minister's Office, and then stopped.
"Sir, the Prime Minister's Office has arrived!" a Japanese soldier said outside the carriage.
"Yes!" Katsura Taro agreed solemnly, then straightened up his appearance, regained his majestic look, and stepped out of the carriage.
"Sir Katsura Taro, the Prime Minister is waiting for you in the office!" the secretary of the Prime Minister's Office said to Katsura Taro.
Katsura nodded and strode towards the Prime Minister's Office.
"Mr. Yamagata!" After entering the office, Katsura Taro respectfully saluted Yamagata Aritomo. As the Prime Minister of Japan and the veteran of the army, Yamagata Aritomo has a very high status.
"Have you found out when and where the Chinese landed?" Yamagata Aritomo raised his head and looked at Katsura Taro and asked.
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Prime Minister. The Chinese people's defenses are very high, and many warriors of the empire have been sacrificed, but no specific situation has been obtained. However, the army speculates that the Chinese people will launch an attack on the empire within a week. The Chinese people The landing locations are likely to be the western part of Kyushu Island, the southern part of Honshu Island, and Tokyo!" Katsura Taro replied.
A flash of anger flashed in Shanxian Youpeng's eyes, but he did not break out.
"So, is the Army confident of defeating the Chinese and protecting the interests of the empire?" Youpeng from Shanxian County stared at Katsura Taro closely like a hawk, showing his composure without anger!
"Sir Yamagata, the army will do its best to resist the Chinese attack. Even if all the jade is broken, the Chinese will shed all their blood in Japan and the Chinese will have to retreat!" Katsura replied loudly.
"Very good, I am very happy that the Army has such an idea. Then, it depends on the performance of the Army. The Chinese refuse to negotiate with us and want to destroy the empire. The empire is now in a very dangerous situation. Defeat the Chinese and cause the Chinese to suffer huge losses in Japan. Only in this way can it be possible to curb their ambitions and make them retreat. The future of the empire depends on this battle! Our army will be the one who saves Japan. The last hope!" Shanxian Youpeng said loudly.
"Sir Yamagata, please rest assured, as long as our army is here, Japan will not be destroyed!" A trace of madness flashed in Katsura Taro's eyes.
"Very good, I very much look forward to hearing the news about the Army's victory!" Yamagata Aritomo nodded with satisfaction. Although Japan is now at the end of its rope, these crazy Army soldiers have not given up because of this.
, still making the final struggle and efforts.
On the evening of October 20, at the Busan Port in North Korea, at the base established by the Chinese Navy, transport ships were docked on the shore. The entire base was blocked and outsiders were prohibited from entering.

On the morning of October 21, when the sun rose from the sea, the huge fleet had crossed the Korean Strait and appeared off the coast of Fukuoka. Destroyers were left to protect the transport fleet, three 'Zhonghua-class' battleships and three'
