Chapter 756: Desperate Charge (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"How so? Why is this happening? How could the German fleet break into Tonkin Bay? What does that mean, you know? Eight generations of kings, the empire will suffer extremely serious losses because of this! Kura Wakatsuki Reijiro accused.

Senior General Yashiro Rokuro's face turned pale, and he didn't say a word, allowing the other cabinet ministers to blame. He was also very aggrieved, although the coastal defense force was in charge of the navy. However, in the defense of the Uraga waterway, he has done his best. Now, the Uraga waterway is still being forcibly crossed by the Germans, which is not his reason at all. It's because the Germans are too tough!

"The German warship detonated a mine as it passed through the waterway. But alas, the defenses of the German battleships were so amazing that even the mines did not cause much damage to them. Our coastal defense forces, too, attacked with all their might in an attempt to stop the Germans. But they still haven't done it. The defenses of the German battleships were too strong for our shore defense guns to destroy their defenses at all. "General Rokuro Yashiro looked very helpless.

The other cabinet ministers immediately looked at each other. They didn't expect this to be the case. Originally, they thought that it was the unfavorable resistance of the naval coastal defense forces that gave the German fleet the opportunity to break into Tonkin Bay. But now that we know that the naval coastal defense forces have done their best, there is naturally nothing to blame. After all, the naval shore defense forces don't want that to happen.

"Alright, guys, it's useless to hold accountable now. The point is, what are we going to do? After Shigenobu Okuma finished speaking, his eyes fell on the body of Ichinosuke Ryooka.

Obviously, the Germans chose to venture into the Bay of Tonkin in order to force the island nation to accept their terms. If they were willing to accept German terms, to give up those German colonies in the Pacific, as well as Southeast Asia. This catastrophe may be averted.

Now, the greatest obstacle to the acceptance of the Germans by the island government came from the Army. If the Army does not agree, there is simply no way out.

Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Okaichi suddenly felt a great deal of pressure.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Southeast Asia is the foundation of the rejuvenation of the empire, and we must not hand over Southeast Asia! The patriarchs will not agree. Okaichi said, stiffly.

"However, Tokyo was the capital of the empire. If Tokyo had been destroyed by the Germans, the consequences would have been even more severe. Foreign Minister Takaaki Kato accused.

"If Tokyo is destroyed, we can rebuild it. If Southeast Asia is lost, it will be almost impossible to regain it. "Okaichi Nosuke is obviously out of oil.

Prime Minister Okuma Shigenobu couldn't help but sigh, those guys in the army are really hateful. Their greed will harm the entire island nation! In addition, Okuma Shigenobu also knew that as long as Yama Prefecture Yutomo and Oyama Iwa did not compromise, Okaichi Nosuke would not let go no matter what.

"I have given the order for our remaining destroyers to attack the Germans. However, I am not sure whether it will be able to withstand the attack of the Germans! General Rokuro Yashiro said.

The ministers of the island's cabinet knew that Yashiro Rokuro's order was completely to send those destroyers of the island's navy to death. However, there is no way around it. The Germans were too strong, and the navy of the island nation, whose main forces had almost been lost, was no match for the Germans at all. Even if those destroyers are armed with torpedoes, it is estimated that they will not play a big role.

Yokosuka Naval Base, which is an important base for the Combined Fleet. Almost all of the warships defending Tokyo are concentrated here. It's just that there aren't many warships left in the current Yokosuka Naval Base. Of the only destroyers remaining, there are only a dozen left. The rest of the ships had already been lost in the decisive battle with the German Expeditionary Fleet.

"Whew!"

The terrible sirens sounded over the base, and the sailors who were awakened, without saying a word, put on their clothes in the shortest possible time and rushed to their respective posts. Although, they all had some doubts in their hearts, what was going on. However, after a long period of training, their movements are not slow at all.

Everyone knew that their main naval force had been annihilated by the German Expeditionary Fleet, which meant that they no longer had the strength to fight the German Expeditionary Fleet. Many people believe that they may not have the opportunity to fight at sea again. However, the sudden alarm added a touch of variability. In addition to the sound of the siren, the sailors felt a trace of worry and panic, and at the same time made them feel a little excited.

"Warriors, the despicable Germans broke into the Uraga waterway, and those fools of the shore defense forces could not stop them at all. Therefore, the higher authorities ordered us to attack at once and use our torpedoes to sink all the German battleships that had broken into the Gulf of Tonkin. Think about it, if the Germans were allowed to break into Tokyo Bay. They will surely destroy Tokyo in the same way that they destroy other cities. Many of our compatriots have died at the hands of the Germans. No more people can die. So, even if we are fighting with our lives, stop the Germans! The general of the Yokosuka base said to all the officers and soldiers through a loudspeaker.

He succeeded in boosting the morale of the sailors, who did not want Tokyo to be destroyed by the Germans. Tokyo is their capital! If it is also destroyed, then the island nation will never be able to raise its head in the world.

At the same time, to stop the Germans is to defend their compatriots, to defend their families. They simply don't have a choice about it.

The remaining dozen or so destroyers of the island's navy set off from the Yokosuka military port and rushed to the Uraga waterway at high speed. At the end of the waterway, the German expeditionary fleet was stopped. In this way, they may be able to take advantage of the geographical advantage to stop the Germans.

But, unfortunately, by the time the island destroyers arrived, the five battlecruisers of the German expeditionary fleet had safely passed through the Uraga waterway. Moreover, several light cruisers also passed through the waterway. Other light cruisers and destroyers were also passing through the waterways. If they tried to launch a lightning strike, they would undoubtedly be hit by the powerful firepower of the German expeditionary fleet. If you want to successfully sink the battleships of the German expeditionary fleet, the difficulty factor is very high.

Even so, the commander of the navy of the island country gave the order to attack. More than a dozen destroyers of the island nation rushed towards the German expeditionary fleet.
