Sure enough, as soon as the newspaper appeared, it ignited the anger of the Japanese people in Tokyo. Because after the deliberate propaganda of Japan and the media, the resentment and hatred of the Japanese people towards East China have piled up to a limit, and the Nagasaki incident is like a ***, which easily ignited this ** library, and the later results proved that the consequences of public resentment were aroused far beyond the expectations of the group of people who manipulated public opinion.

At about 10 o'clock in the morning of the same day, tens of thousands of people gathered on the streets of Tokyo to demonstrate in front of the Cabinet office building, demanding that the Cabinet severely punish the perpetrators of the East China **, seize the visiting warships of the East China **, expel all the Chinese in Japan, and even encourage Japan to declare war on East China**. At the same time, in other parts of Tokyo, there are many people who loot and smash Chinese shops and beat up Chinese in Japan, and a riot is happening.

In fact, after the Far East War, the living space of the Chinese in Japan deteriorated sharply, so most of the Chinese chose to leave Japan and find another way to make a living. However, after all, Japan is the country with the largest number of Chinese in addition to Southeast Asia, and many Chinese have married wives and children here, and have taken root in the leaves, unwilling to give up a peaceful life in Japan, and at the same time there are a large number of Japanese students studying in Japan, so they can only continue to stay in Japan, and at this time they have become the object of Japanese venting.

The Cabinet was meeting to discuss ways to resolve the Nagasaki incident, but after learning of the riots, Gonbei Yamamoto decisively ordered the meeting to be stopped, and immediately summoned the head of the Tokyo Police Station and the troops stationed in Tokyo, and asked them to mobilize police forces to do their best to maintain order, disperse the crowd, and protect the Imperial Palace, the Cabinet Office Building, and the consulates and embassies of various countries in case of unforeseen incidents.

In the afternoon, the consul of East China in Japan asked to see Gonbei Yamamoto and issued a solemn protest to Japan, pointing out that the reports of the major media in Tokyo today were seriously untrue, and that the Nagasaki incident was caused by a dispute between the soldiers of the US fleet and the local residents, and had nothing to do with the visiting fleet of East China, and that the visiting fleet of East China had been strictly observing military discipline during the visit. Therefore, the reports of the major media in Tokyo are serious slanders and malicious smears against the visiting fleet in East China, and they demand that Japan immediately clarify it, and order the major media in Tokyo to apologize and ensure the safety of the visiting fleet.

It turned out that almost everything that happened in Japan was transmitted back to China at the first time, so after the Nagasaki incident, the Qingdao Executive Yuan also received it immediately, but because this incident had nothing to do with the visiting fleet in East China, it was caused by a dispute between American soldiers and local residents, so although it later triggered protests by the Japanese people in Nagasaki, the Executive Yuan did not care too much about it, and most people had a mentality of watching jokes and looking at the development of their attitude.

Even at this time, some people still kept a clear head, and only proposed that if there was a conflict between Japan and the United States, the visiting fleet of East China would not be affected, after all, only four cruisers were sent out this time, so the visiting fleet sent a message back to ask for instructions, hoping that the fleet would sail out of the port and anchor outside the port, and after a short discussion, the Executive Yuan also agreed with the opinion of the visiting fleet, and it was better to be cautious at this time. As a result, the visiting fleet of East China** also sailed out of the port of Nagasaki a little later and anchored outside the port. And Qingdao is completely relieved, thinking that it is good to prepare a small bench of melon seeds and peanuts to watch the show.

It was only a day before the wind changed, and Japan's public opinion turned the contradiction to East China. After receiving this news, the Executive Yuan was also very surprised, and at the same time realized that the situation was serious, and it was obvious that someone was manipulating Japanese public opinion behind the scenes, and intended to completely shift the responsibility for the Nagasaki incident to East China.

Of course, East China ** can't bear this pot, but before reacting, first of all, we have to confirm again whether this Nagasaki incident has anything to do with East China's ** visiting fleet. Because a high-power radio station was installed on the Jinan warship, it could directly communicate with the country, regardless of whether it was with the help of a cable radio station when it went ashore, so after more than three hours of telegraphic communication between the Executive Yuan and the visiting fleet, it was finally confirmed that the Nagasaki incident had nothing to do with the visiting fleet in East China, and that it was completely a rumor-mongering incident by Japan, and some of them pointed the contradictions of public opinion at East China.

Therefore, the Executive Yuan immediately ordered the consulate in Japan to lodge a protest with Japan in order to show its attitude. Of course, at this time, some people also suggested that the fleet should simply come back, and Bi Jing's fleet was still in Japan at this time, which was too dangerous. However, after the division of the Military Commission, it was believed that the fleet had now been stationed outside the port of Nagasaki, so the danger was not great, and this time the fleet was all cruisers, and the maximum speed could reach 23 knots, so it was relatively easy to escape, and in this Japan** When the truth was not yet announced, the fleet was to be asked to come back, and it was finally decided that the fleet would remain in the waters of Japan for the time being, but that it should be anchored beyond the range of the shore defense artillery, and that it should be vigilant at night, and that the domestic fleet should be prepared so that it could be dispatched at any time to receive the visiting fleet.

Originally, Yamamoto Gonbei was already under great pressure, and after receiving the protest from East China, he only felt that there was another mountain on his back, of course, at this time, Yamamoto Gonbei could not say anything else, but could only tell the consul in East China that the media report did not represent the attitude of Japan, and that Japan was investigating the true image of the Nagasaki incident, and once the results of the investigation were available, they would be announced as soon as possible.

After sending off the consul stationed in Japan in East China, Gonbei Yamamoto immediately sent a telegram to Nagasaki, demanding that the Navy stationed in Nagasaki must strictly guard the base to ensure the safety of the East China Navy and the US fleet. Then he ordered the police station in Nagasaki to collect evidence, witnesses, and find out the truth as soon as possible.

In fact, the truth has already come out, but there is no evidence, and it is necessary to arrest the parties, confessions, relevant evidence, etc., Yamamoto Gonbei hopes to get sufficient evidence as soon as possible to prove the true image of the Nagasaki incident, only in this way can the public grievances be quelled, even if it cannot be quelled for the time being, but it can also justifiably let the East China ** and the US fleet leave Japan.

That night, at about 1 o'clock in the morning, Yamamoto Gonbei was woken up by his family in his sleep at home, and it turned out that the officials on duty in the cabinet received the latest news, and there was another accident in Nagasaki, and the visiting fleet of East China ** was attacked at night. Of course, the officials on duty were not able to solve the problem, so they had to send someone to the prime minister.

Yamamoto Gonbei's head suddenly "buzzed" a lot louder, I was really afraid of something, it was difficult to see whether the navy openly disobeyed the order of the cabinet and attacked the visiting fleet of East China, or the visiting fleet of East China** opened fire first and attacked Nagasaki Port, or there was some misunderstanding between the two sides, which led to a misfire. That's all for sure.

At this time, I still have some sleep, hurry up and deal with it, at least to find out the truth, so Yamamoto Gonbei got up and dressed, and at the same time ordered to send people to the homes of other cabinet members, telling them to hurry to the cabinet to gather, anyway, I can't sleep, and everyone else doesn't want to lie down, they all have to get up and stay up.

When Gonbei Yamamoto arrived at the cabinet, he received two more reports from Nagasaki, first of all, it can be confirmed that the Nagasaki Fort did not send a visiting fleet to the East China **, and the visiting fleet of the East China ** did not suffer any losses, but about 3-4 small boats were sunk at the scene, which seemed to be civilian ships.

It turned out that although there was no media in the Nagasaki area to deliberately guide public opinion, after a day of fermentation, the people's anger was even higher, and at the same time, the spearhead was also diverted from the American fleet to the fleet that led East China. At this time, the East China ** fleet sailed out of the port of Nagasaki and anchored outside the port, and was considered by the people to be an escape. At the same time, the Nagasaki Police Department received an order from the Cabinet to strengthen the investigation of the Nagasaki incident, and tried its best to arrest the members of the community that attacked the American soldiers in the first place, but this community has been regarded as a hero by the people of Nagasaki, of course, most of the people now think that they are attacking the soldiers of East China, not the American soldiers, after all, at this time, it doesn't really matter what it really is.

Moreover, there are many radical and extreme Japanese people who follow their example and want to do something. But now the naval base is tightly guarded, and no matter how radical and extreme the Japanese people are, they do not dare to attack the military base, and now the fleet of the East China ** has sailed out of the port and is stationed outside the port, so even if it attacks the port, it is useless.

However, some people have come up with a way, that is, if the fleet of East China ** is stationed outside the port, then you can take a boat close to the warship of East China, and if the ship is equipped with **, maybe it can really cause serious losses to the fleet of East China.

Nagasaki is one of Japan's major port cities, there are naturally a lot of civilian ships, and some radical regiments themselves have a military background, so it is not impossible to do something, not to mention that there are a large number of army intelligence officers in Nagasaki, adhering to the attitude of the army, it is natural to make things as big as possible, if it really sinks or injures a warship in East China, the Yamamoto Gonbei cabinet has only one way to go.

So with the help of army intelligence officers, using members of the radical community, they quickly got 5 fishing boats, of which 2 fishing boats were each loaded with 50 kilograms of black **, which were used to ram the warships of East China**, and started to operate that night.
