Chapter 653: The Battle of the Islands VIII

The vast majority of the Russians scoffed at the speech of the Japanese Prime Minister, and no one in the world could believe the words of the Japanese, because they just wanted to take back the territorial rights of the four northern islands, so they pretended to get close to Russia, and they did not know what evil intentions were hidden behind it!

However, this remark caused an uproar in the United States, not because the Americans were stupid, but because Japan has always had a history of not being able to speak well, and the Pearl Harbor incident, which Americans hated to the core, is still fresh in their memories!

Members of the National Assembly have said one after another that they cannot stand the attitude of the Japanese Government, that this country is currently under the protection of the United States, and that everything must be premised on the strategic intentions of the United States.

"In the former Soviet era, the four northern islands were extremely important strategic bases, in addition to protecting the Pacific Fleet's access to the sea, there is also to guard against our troops stationed in Japan, Mr. President, according to the style of Russia and President Park Kim, the Japanese government must have paid a great price for the four northern islands, and there may even be unfavorable conditions for the US troops stationed, otherwise the Russians will not easily agree to this request based on economic interests alone."

"This matter is quite bad for us, arranging the main force of a mercenary army to be stationed on the four northern islands to suppress the expanding ambitions of the Japanese would have been a good move, if the four northern islands returned to the territory of the Japanese, then the mercenary army would have lost its base and this threat would no longer exist." The Minister of Defense said with a dark face.

"The Japanese Government will absolutely take into account the factors of the US Government, and now the Japanese people are very much resisting the issue of US military bases, clamoring for us to relocate, and even if the Japanese side takes over the four northern islands, it will not allow us to build new bases there.

"What's even more troublesome is that the mercenary corps has used the secret funds of the US government to build more than a dozen large and field airfields on the four northern islands, as well as the Danguan Bay Naval Base and more than a dozen port terminals, which can be used when they take over."

"If the Japanese Self-Defense Forces get these military facilities, their strength will increase greatly, and there will be an excuse to build more warships, and we must not forget that in the Pearl Harbor incident that year, the Japanese fleet set out from the Danguan Bay Naval Base to carry out a sneak attack." The Minister of the Navy said with a frown.

"We have indulged Japan so much over the years that we have forgotten that it is the United States that controls their fate, so what can we do with Russia's support, and will Russia dare to challenge the United States for Japan's sake? We must stop taking high-pressure measures to completely sober up the Japanese and see their position clearly! The President of the United States slapped the table and made a decision.

"The more than 80 bases of the US military stationed in Japan will now be put on first-class alert, all soldiers will be canceled from vacation, the Navy will send an additional aircraft carrier battle group to Japan, especially the Virginia-class attack nuclear submarines and Ohio-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines, and the Air Force will need to send an additional F22 fighter wing and B1B strategic bombers to the Air Force, and transport a division of marines and a mechanized infantry division to the Yokosuka base."

"Order the garrisons of the mercenary corps on the four northern islands to also enter combat readiness, and require them to mobilize B52 and B1B strategic bombers to conduct combat cruises in the area of the four northern islands, and the two aircraft carrier battle groups to which they belong are on duty in shifts in the sea area to exert pressure on Japan together with the US army."

"The mercenary corps is premised on profits, and if they can't get enough benefits, they won't work hard, so Thompson will hurry up and report the amount of ammunition needed to the Ministry of Defense, and we will double the transportation to the four northern islands, and also bear all their expenses, this time to teach the Japanese a painful lesson, we must let this deranged prime minister resign!" said the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

The department responsible for organizing and implementing the US military's operational plan is not the Department of Defense, but the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

"I think this plan is very good, the mercenary corps is a strategic partner of the Department of Defense, and it is a trustworthy American enterprise, whether it is to stop the pace of Russia's westward advance in Ukolan, or to deter Japan by force on the four northern islands, the task is very well accomplished, and it meets the strategic needs of the US government."

"Although the Golden Triangle Federation built by the mercenary corps is applying to join the United Nations General Assembly to become a member state, this group of managers and authorities is essentially mercenaries who survive for money, and it can also be inferred from this that there will not be much development, plus the Golden Triangle Federation is extremely short of resources, and the industrial base has just started, so it will not pose a threat to the United States for at least 50 years."

"However, Japan is different, it is the earliest industrial power and military power in Asia, but because of the limitations of its own conditions, coupled with the impact of the defeat in World War II, the strategic space has been artificially compressed by the US government, once Japan gets the four northern islands, its power will be further expanded, its strength will be further enhanced, and it will pose a great threat to the US military stationed in Japan."

"It is necessary for us to fully support mercenary organizations such as mercenary regiments, as a standing means in the military aspect, to stifle Japan's ambition to break away from US surveillance, and the Ministry of Defense must open a green channel for mercenary regiments, not only for money for money, but also for weapons and equipment, but also to give more and more to be doubled!"

"The United States will not prevent Japan from taking back the four northern islands, but it must be a permanent base for mercenaries, even if the Japanese government and the Russian government reach an agreement, it will be useless, this sword of Damocles must be hanging over their heads!" The new President is very satisfied with the proposal of the President of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Successive big men who have become presidents of the United States usually need a large-scale military operation to show their skills and style of doing things to the outside world, and this is a good opportunity, Japan will definitely not dare to go to war with the United States, so it can only choose to retreat and compromise, and achieve its goal without harming the lives of American soldiers, so why not?

Moreover, after the new president came to power, for a special purpose, he thought about cutting secret spending on mercenaries and stopping the continued sale of advanced weapons to mercenary groups, an international mercenary organization that has affected the security interests of the United States.

But the Ministry of Defense showed him some top secrets between the mercenaries and the US government, and the new president immediately changed his mind, never expecting that the mercenaries were also ordered to implement a top-secret plan developed by the US government.

It is still a mystery to Japan that it used the Seawolf-class attack nuclear submarine to attack the capital ship of the Japanese Navy and take out a Kongo-class missile destroyer and a helicopter destroyer.

Since everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, no one can fly, there are common secrets that need to be kept, and the relationship is naturally much more stable, the reason why the previous government spared no effort to support the mercenary corps, the reason is about to come out, such an obedient killer feature, such a good black pot target and cannon fodder, who is willing to give up?
