The real situation is far more serious than what ordinary people see. In order to ensure that the agreement was reached, the Meiji government even ordered the transfer of the army.

Youpeng's plan to defend the local area in Shan County died one step ahead of schedule before it could be implemented.

His own family knows his own affairs, and as the highlight of Japan's millennium, the Meiji government is not an idle generation.

There are unstable factors in the country, and everyone is aware of it. The traces of the Army's involvement in the Russian embassy case are so obvious that naturally they cannot be allowed to leave Tokyo in the chaos.

The excuses are all ready-made, the breakdown of relations between Japan and Russia, the tense situation on the border, and the need to transfer troops over for reinforcements.

Anyone can kidnap them righteously, and the politicians' gameplay is far from being comparable to that of the immature teenagers of the Army radicals.

"As a soldier, you don't go to defend your home and country, and you dare to say that you are a patriot?"

Now it is the Meiji government, and the whole of Japan has not gone crazy, and the army is naturally not as crazy as it was in the Showa era.

No matter how uproar the people are, the army can only pack their bags and go to the front.

The more influential the radical forces, the sooner they were sent to the ship. On the contrary, it was the "steady" troops like the Fourth Division that were left to the end.

Don't look at the later generations about the Fourth Division, but at the critical moment, this unit is still reliable.

During the Southwest War, the 4th Division was awarded a certificate of merit by Emperor Meiji for its outstanding achievements, and it was the only unit in the Japanese Army to receive this honor.

The reason why the Fourth Division is favored by the Japanese government is not only that they are strong in combat, but also that they are "peaceful" enough.

Perhaps because of cultural traditions, this unit from Osaka was different from other Japanese armies from the very beginning of its establishment.

The Japanese Army is very seriously influenced by bushido and military doctrine, and most of its commanders advocate that soldiers should have the spirit of daring to die.

A typical example is "Nogi Noshinori", whose performance in the Russo-Japanese War in his original time and space was held in other countries, but he was enshrined as a "god of war".

In this social context, the Fourth Division, which does not like to work blindly and loves to use its brains when fighting, is very different.

Alternatives are discriminated against, and if this alternative unit is still favored by the upper echelons, it will be even more unbearable.

It is inevitable that there will be a few more nicknames similar to "Merchant Division" and "Waste Division".

These were minor problems, but in short, the 4th Division was left on home to take care of the aftermath, along with the marines, gendarmerie, and police, to maintain stability in the country, and by the way to supervise the boarding of friendly troops.

Obviously, this is not a good errand. But there is no way, this kind of "drudgery" that offends people can only be done by the alternative Fourth Division in the army.

Radicalism was so rampant in the Army that with the exception of the relatively rational Fourth Division, the rest of the units were fanatical one by one.

You can't leave this task to the Marines, right?

If the navy were to supervise it, it would be estimated that the army would have to have a nervous breakdown, and insulting people would not be allowed to play like this.

……

Walking down the street, Saito Osa could clearly feel the strange gaze, and the feeling was very unpleasant, as if they had done something heinous.

A young officer stepped forward and reported: "Your Excellency, this is the troublemaker who has just been arrested. ”

Glancing at the unlucky man who had been caught, Saito frowned. Without exception, most of those arrested were students.

All of them held their heads high and stood on their toes, as if they had done something great, as if the cockfighting that had just won a big victory could not be ignored.

You don't have to think about it to know that it's another group of middle school teenagers who have been fooled and stupid.

If a normal person is caught, even if he is not in a hurry to cry out for wrongdoing, he is also daring, trying to exonerate himself, how can he be arrogant.

"Well done, Uemura-kun. Take them down, give birth to caregivers, and leave the rest to the government! ”

There have been too many similar situations lately, and Saito Osa has lost interest in theorizing with them.

There is no way, it is too difficult to convince a group of secondary two teenagers who have not been beaten by society.

In a sense, the fanaticism of the people is also the bitter fruit of the Japanese government itself. The following traditions are not innate.

The root cause of all this is the sequelae of Westernization. Blindly studying the various systems of the West, the good, the bad, the suitable, and the unsuitable are all copied in one go.

"Breaking away from Asia and joining Europe" is not just a slogan, but has been put into practical action. The Japanese Army was the most fanatical, and that was when they formed the new army, and it was France that was the first to emulate.

Unlike the French, who are well-informed and have not experienced the baptism of various ideological storms, the Japanese are inevitably led astray.

It is human nature to want to take shortcuts, and countries are also composed of people, and it is inevitable that they will be affected.

Under the guiding ideology of "learning to learn the most advanced", the Japanese Army came into contact with the "military-oriented ideology" in Paris, which could improve the combat effectiveness of the army in a short period of time, and then found a realistic template in Prussia.

I don't have to say, I copied it. Perhaps thinking that simple "military doctrine" is not enough, the Japanese Army has added a unique bushido spirit in the process of modernization.

The Fourth Division was less affected, because most of the soldiers came from Osaka, which had a strong business atmosphere, and their horizons and knowledge were relatively broader.

The same reasoning applies to the Navy. The more you know, the less one-sided you look at the problem.

Just like this embassy intervention, the radicals in the army even shouted the slogan "do not hesitate to fight"; And the more knowledgeable modests want to end it quickly.

It is obvious that Saito Daisa is relatively conservative in his thinking, and he gives an evaluation of the practices of the middle two teenagers as "the ignorant are fearless".

"Fight at the expense of a war" is easy to say, but if a war really starts, will Japan have the strength to fight?

It's not that Saito is arrogant, it's just that the gap in strength is too big. Having personally participated in the Philippine War and seeing the combat effectiveness of French mercenaries, he deeply realized the gap between the Japanese Army and the world's top army.

If the army can't compare, the gap between the navy will be even greater. Naval battles Spain did not invite mercenaries.

Judging from the information gathered, the Spanish Navy has long been decayed and degenerate, with old-fashioned tactics, low morale, and officers and men who are greedy for life and afraid of death......

However, it was this Spanish navy, which looked rotten and did not speak like words, that made all walks of life in Japan understand what a "century-old navy" was.

There is no way, these things at the bottom of the box, the British will not hand over.

Experience in the details can only be accumulated slowly over time. The more times we suffer losses and are deceived, the lessons will naturally be learned.

In the evening, Saito Daisa, who had finished his day's work, was working hard to write a summary of the day's work.

It is the same in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad, and if someone is arrested, it is indispensable to write a report. Only when the causes and consequences are clearly explained can the judicial personnel who take over later deal with it.

"Jingle bells, jingle bells......"

The phone on the desk rang, Saito Osa put down the pen helplessly, adjusted his mood for a few seconds, and replied politely: "I'm Junichiro Saito, who are you?" ”

"This is the joint investigation team of the Russian embassy case, and I hereby order your ministry to send all the arrested personnel to the east gate tomorrow morning......

Compared to Saito Daisa's politeness, the reply on the other end of the phone was much more arrogant. Not only did he not introduce his self-identity, but he didn't even say a word of politeness, it was completely a commanding tone.

There was no way, people had to bow their heads under the eaves. In recent years, Europeans have been superior to others everywhere they go, and they have been deceived by the Japanese government before the embassy case, so they have a fire in their stomachs, and now they naturally have a good attitude.

Mo said that he was a middle-level military officer, and even the top level of the Japanese government did not get the respect he deserved in the investigation team.

The other party's tone was unpleasant, but Saito Osa couldn't put his breath away, and hurriedly explained: "Your Excellency, what we have arrested is just an ordinary criminal who gathered a crowd to make trouble, and it has nothing to do with the Russian embassy case......

Whether it has a relationship or not, it has to be irrelevant. It's true that Saito doesn't have a cold interest in the second middle school boys, but that doesn't mean that he can watch these "patriots" die.

There is no way, ordinary people sent it over, and there is still a possibility of coming out after the investigation, and the second middle school boy is definitely going and not returning.

The ignorant are fearless, and if they are slightly deceived or stimulated, these people dare to take responsibility.

It's not everything, it's all suitable for filling the head. The Russian embassy case has made such a big fuss, and now it doesn't matter how many people are involved, as long as you dare to admit it, people will dare to kill them.

Don't look at these junior high school teenagers who seem to be useless now, but these people are indeed the future of Japan. People will grow, and the present secondary two does not mean the future secondary two.

In order to protect these patriots, most of the suspects handed over by Saito Daisa in recent times are ruffians and hooligans.

In his opinion, these people are all social moths anyway, and it is better to use them as waste and take them out for the legation to vent.

That's right, in the eyes of many Japanese, the recent strong persecution of the legation is to "take a breath" and humiliate the Japanese Empire by the way.

Track down the murderer?

The Japanese government, which is the head snake of the land, can't find out who the black hand is with all its might, so just rely on the outsiders found by the legation?

If you can't find the people behind the scenes, you can only arrest the planners and participants of the demonstrations that day.

"Daisa Saito, please recognize the seriousness of the problem. Whether it matters or not, whether the murder investigation team has the final say, you don't need to judge on your behalf. ”

The arrogant voice not only extinguished Saito's enthusiasm, but also exposed the identity of the speaker.

Seeing that the communication failed, Saito Osa replied coldly: "Okada-kun, don't forget your identity."

Doing things for foreigners and mutilating their own compatriots will one day be punished. ”

There is no shortage of two or five boys in this world, and Japan is no exception. The government wants to break away from Asia and join Europe, and there are even more ordinary people who want to be foreigners.

If you just want to be a foreigner, it's just a personal choice, and it's naturally not a big deal, far from being a second or fifth boy.

The annoying reason is that these guys "pick up the bowl to eat, and put it down late to cheat their mothers".

If the legation wants to investigate the case of the Russian embassy, it is obviously not enough to rely on their little people, and at this time, it is necessary for the Japanese traitors who are familiar with Japan's national conditions to come into play.

It is a rare opportunity for the master to look at him differently, and this Russian embassy case is obviously the best stage for the Japanese traitors.

The legation had already painted the flatbread. As long as the Russian embassy case is properly handled, the embassies of various countries will recruit a group of enthusiastic people who are familiar with Japan's social environment from among those who have performed well.

For many, this is an opportunity to reach the top. Not only can they successfully obtain citizenship, but they will also be able to obtain a full-fledged diplomatic staff.

Don't underestimate the identity of this inconspicuous ordinary staff, which can make the Japanese traitors flock to it, and the hidden interests behind this are not ordinary.

Not only is it convenient to do comprador intermediary business, but more importantly, it can realize the leap of class, and you can enter the Japanese upper class society at once.

Okada is one of them, and he has played an important role in the investigation of the Russian embassy case by virtue of his talent for careful discovery and excavation.

Although no big fish were caught, small fish and shrimp were caught in a basket, which was favored by the legation.

Talent is rare, and many countries have extended olive branches to him. Without making a choice, it was Okada waiting for a better opportunity.

That's right, ordinary European countries can no longer make Okada happy, and what he wants is to join Britain or the HRE.

Britain has the largest market share in Japan, and mixing with the British can bring huge financial returns.

As a rising star, HRE does not deeply cultivate the Japanese market, so it occupies a slightly smaller share of trade, but it has great potential in the future.

There is another important reason, that is, the probability of becoming a "daimyo" (noble) in HRE is higher, although Britain also has a noble title, but that is all false.

Although he has not yet received official invitations from the embassies of the two countries, Okada is confident in himself.

The investigation of the case of the Russian embassy had only just begun, and he stood out from his competitors and was praised by the legation.

Okada, who thinks he is superior, suddenly feels bad after being called out of his identity.

"Saito Daisa, you don't need to worry about my affairs, let's do your job first!

The reaction was so fierce, shouldn't it be the Russian embassy case, and you also have a share, right? ”

The speaker may be unintentional, but the listener is willing. Anyway, Saito Osa was frightened, and he understood Okada's ability to buckle his hat.

At this point, whoever has anything to do with the Russian embassy case will end up in tragedy.

Up to now, there have been many important members of Japan's military and political circles, who have suffered unjustified disasters because their children cheated their fathers and grandfathers.

Although the European world is not prevalent in the nine ethnic groups, the Japanese government can't help but express it! Seppuku is not enough, but it is necessary to go home early for the elderly.

Those who are implicated are unlucky, and they are directly involved, let alone involved. If you don't find it, forget it, and once you find it, wait for the ruling of the International Court of Justice!

"Okada-kun, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense. It's better not to mess around with such jokes.

Otherwise, it will not be good for people to mistakenly think that you are handling the case, you are fabricating charges out of thin air, and finding someone to act as a scapegoat. ”

If you lose, you don't lose, and Saito Osa is also out of the way. Anyway, he didn't participate in the Russian embassy case, so he wasn't afraid of investigating it at all.

As a middle-level officer in the Japanese Army, even if someone wants to frame him, the military will not agree.

If you really cause trouble, you will be unlucky, and the other party will not be pleased. What the legation needs is a dog to help investigate the case, not a dog to get into trouble everywhere.

Once the trust of the legation is lost, and asylum is no longer provided, Okada's two or five boys, it is the rhythm of sinking in Tokyo Bay every minute.
