The purpose of the Japanese is actually very simple and practical, they just hope that China will stand in solidarity with Japan. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

On the issue of immigrating to the United States, the Japanese have actually been very restrained, and the number of immigrants in the United States is less than 300,000, which is very small compared to the tens of millions of poor people in Japan, and the reason why there are only so many immigrants is not that the Japanese do not want to immigrate to the United States, but that the Japanese government has been restricting immigration to the United States on its own, for fear of arousing the disgust of the Americans.

However, now the Americans have completely closed the door for the Japanese to immigrate to the United States, and Japan's reaction is more civilian, precisely because in the eyes of the Japanese government, the US immigration bill does not reject the Japanese, but only symbolically, symbolizing that the status of the Japanese is the same as that of white Europeans, but now the Americans have torn up this symbol, which has greatly dealt a blow to Japan's national pride.

"Americans still can't think about it, an immigration problem, they don't stop tossing, and they have to die on this issue sooner or later."

Yang Chao sighed.

The Chinese Exclusion Act was the first bill for immigrants in the United States, and it was shamefully aimed at Chinese.

After the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, the United States and Japan reached a gentlemen's agreement in 1907, in exchange for the Japanese themselves to limit the number of immigrants in exchange for the United States not to introduce a similar immigration policy to Japan.

In 1917, a bill was introduced to completely ban immigration from Asian countries other than Japan and the Philippines, completely closing the channels for immigration from Southeast Asia and the Middle East.

However, with the unification of Italy and the fall of Spain, the number of immigrants from the Latin peoples surged, and after 1917, immigrants from Asia were kept out of the United States, but immigrants from southern European countries such as Italy and Greece were not uncommon.

Americans did not reject immigrants, but they preferred immigrants from Britain, Sweden and Germany, so in 21 they withdrew from another bill that required the 1910 census to limit the number of immigrants to no more than 3 percent of the nation's population in the United States. Because in 1910, the largest number of people in the United States came from Northwest Europe.

After the introduction of this law, Italy, which had more than 200,000 immigrants the year before, only about 40,000 in the second year.

This year (24 years), the U.S. government, driven by national sentiment, finally began to make trouble again, this time even the Japanese and Filipinos were piggybacked, completely refusing Japanese immigration to the United States.

Kawaguchi's attitude was: "I would like to receive your support from you, and I will send a strongly worded note to the United States." and did not hesitate to impose heavy taxes on American products. If the U.S. imposes sanctions on Japan, we hope to have your country's support, both financially and economically. ”

Yang Chao waved his hand and smiled: "For example, reducing tariffs on textiles? ”

The greatest interest of the United States to Japan is the dumping ground for cheap textiles, and if an economic war is waged against the United States, Japan's textile exports will certainly be greatly affected, and this will be a great blow to Japan, which is in the process of rebuilding after the disaster.

Kawaguchi nodded, reducing China's textile tariffs, is indeed what Japan has been striving for, if China can open up the textile market, undoubtedly more attractive than the American market, China now has at least 200 million people with strong purchasing power, although the proportion is not as rich as the middle class in the United States, but the overall purchasing power is much more than the United States.

Yang Chao nodded: "Harmony, my country is willing to make peace with Japan in the midst of Japan's crisis." But Japan should also open up the market for machinery products at the same time, the quality of your machinery products is too poor, and long-term protection may not be a good thing. ”

Yang Chao is not a fool, plain to Japan to provide the market, if Japan is willing to open up the market of mechanical products, a large number of machine tool enterprises in Shandong can squeeze the Japanese chaebol of those garbage machine tool factories completely bankrupt, other large industrial products Japan is also unable to resist, such as Japan's diesel locomotive market is very attractive, because their manufacturing level is not enough, and vigorously protect the market, now most of the Japanese railways are still running steam locomotives, which is obviously behind the times.

"At this point, my country is willing to consider it, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to pass."

Kawaguchi is embarrassed.

Yang Chao smiled: "You don't need to answer. I think I see what you mean. I hope to meet with your emperor soon, you should be able to arrange it, but remember to keep it secret. ”

Yang Chao felt that he could support Japan once, because he wanted to play a big game and make a big deal with the Americans.

"Of course you can."

It is very difficult for others to meet the emperor, but it is really easy for Yang Chao to meet the emperor.

Kawaguchi went back to get in touch with Japan through secret channels, and finally decided that the emperor and Yang Chao would meet secretly on a warship to keep it a secret from the world.

The Japanese also do not want to openly meet with Chinese politicians at this time, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble, and they are still not bold enough to completely tear their faces with the Americans, you must know that they have a lot of cooperation with the Americans, and if they really tear their faces with the Americans and sever economic ties with the United States like China, China can bear it, but Japan can hardly bear it.

A Chinese cruiser from the Yokosuka naval base sailed out of the port in a low-key manner, announcing that it would return to Shandong for overhaul.

No one knew that there was a mysterious guest on board the warship.

Yang Chao went to sea on his own yacht and 'accidentally' encountered this warship off the coast of Shandong, so he went on the warship to visit at the invitation of the captain.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, it's an honor to meet you."

"Mr. Yang, it's an honor to meet you."

Yang Chao clenched his fists, Hirohito bowed, and then the two shook hands.

The two of them sat down in the captain's room, and then began to discuss the incident in detail.

"Do the Japanese still have the courage to fight?"

Yang Chao startled Hirohito as soon as he opened his mouth, fighting? At this time! Isn't this looking for death?

Does Japan still have the qualifications to fight, Sasebo and Yokosuka are both occupied by the Chinese navy, and there are still 100,000 Chinese soldiers stationed in Tokyo, with whom does such a country fight?

If you have the courage to defend your dignity, we are willing to provide all military strength, and I believe that President Phan Hun will be very happy to cooperate with this when he is about to be elected, and even we can sign a military alliance agreement, and I believe that Korea, the Ryukyus, and even Siam will be happy to participate, and gather the military forces of East Asia, will the Japanese have the confidence to defend their dignity in a war?

Of course, it was a war with the United States, gathering the forces of East Asia to confront the United States, and Hirohito couldn't help but be moved.

As for the question of whether there will be deaths in the war, it has never been considered by the Japanese, they only think about the future of the country.

If Japan can really make a big noise, this is an excellent opportunity for Japan to re-make its voice in the world, and for Hirohito, it is a good opportunity to calm domestic anger.

"If the Japanese dare to be tough on the United States, I believe that the national self-confidence that Japan lost in the earthquake will be reborn, and the Japanese nation will regain its confidence.

Hirohito is even more excited, to be honest, what Japan lacks most now is national self-confidence, a considerable number of Japanese believe that sooner or later the islands of Japan will be silent, the Japanese nation will disappear, and Japan can only survive through immigrants from all over the world, so this time the United States immigration bill will cause such a big reaction from the Japanese, and collective seppuku has appeared.

But Hirohito is not stupid, he is not an ordinary person, he heard some problems from Yang Chao's words.

"China wants to fight the United States?"

Hirohito also learned to get straight to the point.

Yang Chao said with a smile: "Does China dare to fight a war with the United States, but the question is whether the Americans dare?" ”

Hirohito nodded, with the current situation, only a fool would want to fight a war with China, and the United States is no exception, the war in Europe has just ended, and that kind of crazy trench warfare and war of attrition let the whole world know that fighting a war has become a collective act of a nation and a country, and the German Ludendorff wrote the theory of "Total War" based on this.

In order to fight an overall war, the most important thing is resources, industry, and manpower, and among these three elements, China is a big country in resources and an industrial power, and it has an unparalleled advantage in manpower.

Although China and the United States are far away from the ocean, China's naval strength is now obvious to all, although it is called the world's first, there are some controversies, but the world's top three absolutely have no objections, and the United States is on a par, once the two countries fight, it is really hard to say who will have the last laugh, the United States is not a nation-state, they do not have so much cohesion, and they cannot unite in an overall war with China.

Since the United States does not dare to fight, and China wants to fight, what role does Japan have in this?

"So what do you need Japan for?"

Hirohito knew that Japan was not qualified to stand on the cards of China and the United States, so he wanted to know what Yang Chao wanted them to do, and he met with Yang Chao privately, and he didn't want to engage in diplomatic rhetoric at all, he wanted to be frank and express Japan's sincerity.

"Prepare for war and boost the hearts of your people."

Hirohito understood that Yang Chao intended to scare and scare the United States, and Japan had to take the lead.

Japan needs to put on an attitude of not hesitating to fight, and then China pulls other East Asian countries behind them to endorse them, and in the end it can only be a show, and the attitude of the Japanese government will once again unite the people, the only concern is, in case Japan jumps out, China doesn't care, Japan really wants to fight with the United States alone?

Japan, which has no navy and only 100,000 troops, fights the Americans, isn't this a food delivery?

"What, don't worry?"

Yang Chao asked with a smile.

Hirohito said resolutely: "You are too worried, Japan fully trusts China." ”

Hirohito instantly figured out that it was impossible for China to abandon Japan. (To be continued.) )
