Chapter 529: Wait

The United States can't afford to wait, Japan can't afford to spend it, this is Liu Jun's basis, and he can't afford to close the case, so the result is that the United States will summon the Emoto Embassy as soon as the last one is finished, to discuss the purchase of warships.

Although the sun is scorching on the streets of Tokyo, this hobby cannot resist the passion and excitement of the Japanese citizens today.

News came from the Far East together, and the Japanese army fought another big victory in Siberia, annihilating a division of the Tsarist Russian army. That's good news for Japan. Of course, this is only for the citizens of Japan, and not for Hirobumi Ito, who is now standing at the window of the Prime Minister's Office with a swab sighing.

Once upon a time, this was Ito Hirobumi's evaluation of the Daqing Newspaper, but now, he never imagined that Japan would now become a country that reports good news but not bad news.

At present, the newspapers in Japan, according to their own orders, only report on how Japan is doing in the Saarland, but they do not mention in the slightest about how bad the situation in Japan is now.

The First Corps of Liaodong was eyeing Korea, and Liaodong's Beiyang Fleet in Lushun, the German Far East Fleet, and the Tsarist Russian Fleet rushing to Liaodong could not report on the threat to the Japanese Combined Fleet, and so on.

Hey, with a sigh, Hirobumi Ito reluctantly lowered the curtains, returned to his position and closed his eyes in contemplation. I'm so tired, I've never felt so tired.

He always felt in his heart that since Liu Jun came to Liaodong, he was eaten to death by Liu Jun and couldn't move at all, and sometimes he wondered if it was because he was too insidious, or because Japan was very immoral, Amaterasu came to torture Japan exclusively.

If this is really the case, then Amaterasu is too lacking in virtue, and this Liu Jun has to destroy Japan.

That's not all, Britain, which has been beating you and supporting you all along, has also stabbed itself at this critical time, and is no longer selling warships to Japan, the situation is too bad, and it has reached a time when it is out of control. Maybe for Ito Hirobumi, death is a relief, but in the face of this supreme right, he doesn't want to die.

With a creak, the door was opened, and Ito Hirobumi slowly opened his godless eyes, only then did he see his deputy Inoue Shin walk in. But to his bewilderment, Foreign Minister Hideyoshi Yoshida also walked in at the same time.

Strangely, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has rarely come to its own Prime Minister's Office, and usually things are said at cabinet meetings, but at this time, the arrival of the Foreign Minister has puzzled some Ito Hirobumi.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, the Ambassador to the United States has sent urgent information." When Inoue Xinyi arrived at Ito Hirobumi's swab, she handed the telegram in her hand to Ito Hirobumi and said it was huge: "The United States intended to reveal yesterday that it will sell us two battleships and four armored cruisers.

What the? Hirofumi Ito, who had always been like a dead man, suddenly had a glint of greed and excitement in his eyes. Start reading the information above.

Great, Amaterasu has never forgotten us, Ito Hirobumi prayed with great excitement in his heart.

"Is the information reliable?" Although his heart was extremely excited, Ito Hirobumi regained his composure within a few seconds and sat down in his seat and asked.

"Reliable, according to information from the embassy, this is a hint given to us by the Secretary of Commerce of the United States after urgently summoning our ambassador." It was Foreign Minister Hideyoshi Yoshida, who was following behind Inoue Shin.

There is nothing wrong with that. The news is true, Ito Hirobumi thought with a frown.

Looking down and pondering, Ito Hirobumi raised his head and asked a question that neither of the two people standing in front of him could answer, that is, he wanted to buy a warship, and only the cabinet members and Britain knew why the Americans knew the news and summoned the ambassador less than five days after Britain refused.

This question made Inoue Xin unable to answer, but in the face of Ito Hirobumi's inquiry, he also had to answer the question, so after thinking about it for a while, he stepped forward: "Is it the news that Britain has revealed?" ”

In the United Kingdom, it is very likely that Ito Hirobumi still knows a lot about the cabinet that was summoned, and he will definitely not disclose this news when he has not ordered it to be reported.

Hearing Inoue Xin say this, Ito Hirobumi suddenly recognized this statement in his heart, nodded slightly, Ito Hirobumi looked at Inoue Xin and asked lightly: "What do they mean by the offer?" “

Inoue Xin thought about it for a while: "I haven't said it yet, but I just told us that if you need to buy it, everything is negotiable." ”

It's okay to have this sentence. Hirobumi Ito's hope was restored in his heart once again: "Send a secret telegram to the ambassador to the United States, so that he can understand as soon as possible how much money the United States needs." ”

"Okay." Inoue nodded, turned around and walked out with the Foreign Secretary.

It's all over Japan. When Inoue Xin and the others went out, Ito Hirobumi thought with emotion in his heart.

Lushun, the gloomy weather is showing at one time, and soon a heavy rain will come.

In the headquarters, Liu Jun glanced at Zhong Lin who was standing in front of him with a smile on his face, and then shifted his gaze to the telegram in his hand. The telegram was sent by a Japanese intelligence station, and according to the latest information, Japan already knew that the United States was ready to sell warships to Japan. Moreover, the Japanese side has also sent a telegram asking the US Embassy to take full responsibility for this matter.

It can be seen that the current route in Japan is still moving around under Liu Jun's arrangement.

"Head. The Japanese army, the United States and Japan have both taken the bait, what should we do next? Zhong Lin saw Liu Jun return to his position, stepped forward and asked cautiously.

What should I do, now Japan and the United States are discussing the matter of warships, and the armistice agreement signed between itself and Japan has not ended, and more importantly, Moscow has not replied to the news that it has marched into the Far East to attack Japan.

"Wait."

Wait? Zhong Lin and Zheng Yiqian, who was standing on the side, both showed puzzled expressions.

The two were puzzled that this was not a Western thing, and Liu Jun, who smiled slightly, could only talk about the matter in general. Immediately, the two of them thoroughly understood that the most important thing now was not the deal between Japan and the United States, but Moscow's decision on Liaodong. That's the most important thing.

"Head. Otherwise, I'm ordering them to hurry up and deal with it. Zhong Lin thought for a while, then raised his head and said.

It's not necessary, if you are in a hurry, it will cause unnecessary trouble, shaking his head slightly, Liu Jun looked at Zhong Lin: "Don't worry, what we have is time." ”
