Japan and Britain negotiated urgently, and Japan never agreed to arrest the Hawaiian soldiers, but they succeeded in persuading the Hawaiian sailors to release the British officers and soldiers for the sake of friendship. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The British took it when they saw it, and shouted fiercely, and then stopped it, but resolutely refused to recognize the so-called Hawaiian government-in-exile, as if Britain had to compromise with Japan because of the war against Germany, after all, they still needed Japanese merchant ships to help them transport supplies.

But there is one country that has always kept a close eye on Japan, and that is North Korea, and they don't look at how aggrieved the British are, and they don't look at how degenerate the British fleet is, they only see that the Japanese navy has suddenly increased by ten capital ships, and the total tonnage has exceeded 600,000 tons, which is more than half of North Korea.

The North Korean Navy is only 300,000 tons, which is on par with Japan, not that they don't want to surpass Japan, but their national strength is limited, and they really can't afford to raise too much of a fleet, because although they are very capable of giving birth to more than 25 million people over the years, which is 10 million more than before they were established, and Japan, when North Korea was established, there were 50 million people, and over the years, although it was not very stable and full of disasters, it still increased to 60 million people.

Based on the number of people, Japan's economic level is also higher than that of North Korea, the accumulation of the Meiji Restoration is not a joke, the First Sino-Japanese War completed compulsory education, built a relatively complete industrial system, after the end of the First World War in the past 20 years, although it is not very peaceful, the earthquake, the Hawaii conflict, but the Japanese economy is generally sustained development, and relying on China's big market, it is stronger than in history.

The prosperity of the twenties created the pillar industry of the timber industry, and China's forced increase in wages gave them a good opportunity to transfer the labor-intensive industry of the textile industry, but in terms of comprehensive national strength, it is still far inferior to Japan, so it is impossible for North Korea to compete with Japan in the money-burning navy.

However, although in terms of tonnage, the North Koreans are comparable to the Japanese navy, but the Koreans believe that they have an advantage over the Japanese fleet, which is composed of pure cruisers and destroyers, with an aircraft carrier as the center and cruisers and destroyers as the auxiliary, because they have capital ships.

However, this time, the Japanese obtained 10 capital ships of the Hawaiian Navy, and the contrast of strength between the DPRK and Japanese Navy was suddenly broken, and the Japanese capital ships were 10 times larger than those of Korea.

The Koreans immediately put forward a point of view that the disappearance of the Hawaiian fleet was completely a conspiracy directed and staged by Japan, and they did not point out the British cooperation, maybe the British were the victims, but it must have been planned by Japan in order to obtain the capital ships.

North Korea immediately took the case to the East Asia Council.

The East Asia Council (EAC) is a body of the East Asia Mutual Protection Alliance, located in Nanjing, China, and each country is assigned one or two representatives, basically all of which are ambassadors to China.

The East Asia Council is responsible for the coordination and management of major international issues among East Asian countries, and there is also a special arbitration tribunal for internal affairs, which is composed of full-time judges from various countries, but following the principle of recusal of the strong party, the DPRK and Japan have a lawsuit, and their representatives cannot have the right to speak, and must be voted on by the representatives of judges from China, Siam, Ryukyu and the Philippines.

If the complaint between the members of the East Asia Alliance is passed, then the trial judge shall be elected by these justices by vote, and the judge will be tried on the basis of public international law and the principle of special provisions and regulations of the East Asia Alliance, and the result of the trial may be appealed, but only once.

Of course, the situation was not serious enough to lead to a lawsuit, and the North Koreans only filed a complaint with the East Asia Council, accusing Japan of expanding its naval strength without authorization, seriously undermining the balance in the East Asian region, and violating the relevant provisions of the peace agreements signed between Japan and China and North Korea, and asking the East Asia Council to rule on Japan to hand over its warships.

The Japanese, for their part, said that these warships could not be considered Japanese warships, but rather the military strength of the Hawaiian government-in-exile, and that the Koreans were completely overly nervous, that Japan had no will or ability to upset the balance in East Asia, and that Japan preferred to maintain the current East Asian order.

The North Koreans were uncompromising and adamant that they would file a complaint with the arbitration court, which would decide the case.

Then there are all kinds of behind-the-scenes activities, North Korea and the Ryukyus have the same interests, and they don't want Japan to become bigger, but Japan has a close relationship with the Philippines, and they both have a little idea about China's dominance of East Asian affairs, Japan wants to challenge, the Philippines wants to make trouble, and Siam is more neutral, and there is no serious conflict with these two countries, but Siam has a request from China, so they often stand closely on China's side, hoping to get China's support to let them regain their lost ground.

North Korea and Japan can only pull a not very reliable ally, especially Japan, the Philippines is a two-faced goods, North Korea and the Ryukyus have been hurt by Japan, have common interests, the Philippines is just using Japan to offset the control of Chinese businessmen over the country, but Japan's investment, obviously can not control the Philippines.

Then the key is China, and if China nods, then this matter will be done.

This is the delicate relationship between East Asia now, China, or the system that Yang Chao built back then, is a complex system that allows all parties to have their own demands and does not seek total control, but China has a decisive influence in it, and although some countries do not like China, they cannot separate from China.

North Korea tried to persuade China to accept that Japan had come up with so many tricks in order to increase its naval strength, while Japan said that the Koreans were simply thinking too much, and these were entirely the demands of the Hawaiians themselves, and lobbied the Chinese government that if it could support Hawaii to establish a Duli regime, it would be extremely beneficial to the whole of East Asia, so that the British and American forces could be completely blocked on the eastern side of the Pacific Ocean and the threat would be far away from the entire East Asian region.

Old Zhang Jian thinks that the Koreans are likely to be too nervous, and what the Japanese said makes some sense, but Zhang Jian is not so easy to deceive, he guesses that even if this matter arises because of Hawaii's struggle for duli, the back eighty percent will be inseparable from Japan, without the support of the Japanese, those Japanese people in Hawaii dare to rebel against the British?

However, Zhang Jian believes that even if the Japanese get these warships, they will not be hindered by the overall situation, and compared with the strength of the Chinese navy, the difference is not a little bit and a half, is it not just two aircraft carriers, China has 10, is it not 8 battleships, and China has 20.

Zhang Jian in this matter, said a little careless, as a person of the old era, he still has some old ideas in his heart, and he looks down on the Japanese, although Japan has erupted for a while, but the situation of the outbreak and rapid death has made him more and more ignorant of this kind of country, there is no foundation, its rise is also vigorous, and its death is also sudden, like a meteor in the sky, and then it disappears.

Zhang Jian felt that Japan was like this, but if he didn't have any vigilance at all, he would underestimate him, but Zhang Jian knew that the two little cubs of the Rich and Strong Party were holding back and had a big foreign policy.

Because he was convinced that the Japanese could not make a big wave, and because he had great trust in Li Fuan and Wang Qiu, Zhang Jian made an impartial decision.

Without China's support, North Korea wanted to take the matter to the East Asia Council Arbitration Tribunal, but it did not even file a case.

The North Koreans were not convinced, and their appeal was dismissed.

The Koreans said that they could not give up, and after making a solemn protest, they decided to take unilateral action, and they sent all their warships to the sea off Japan, blockaded the port of Aomori, and warned the Japanese government that none of these Hawaiian naval fleets could go to sea, otherwise if one came out, North Korea would sink one.

North Korea's tough attitude towards Japan made the Japanese strongly protest, but this time China sided with North Korea, and Zhang Jian, like the mud, told the Japanese that since those ships were Hawaiians, and the Hawaiians were exiled in Japan, it would be bad not to send the warships out if it was okay, and it would be bad to cause conflicts with friendly countries.

This incident has caused tension in East Asia, and the United States is secretly having fun in the back, finally provoking contradictions within East Asia, and it is necessary to find something for the Chinese to do, otherwise they will always go to the door of the United States to make trouble.

Colleague Roosevelt felt that he had done this beautifully, from beginning to end, the dirty work was not done by the Americans, the dirty work was done by the Japanese, the tired work was done by the British Empire, the Americans picked it clean, and perhaps they could also propose to China that they were willing to mediate the contradictions between the DPRK and Japan, and it was not a problem to infiltrate their influence into East Asia.

As for how the British Empire is willing to deign to help the United States do this kind of tiring work, in addition to the same goal as the United States, I don't want to see China's life too comfortable, but also thanks to this war, Roosevelt said that he would do his best to get the United States Congress to lift the arms embargo, so that the United States could be the arsenal of the British Empire, and did his best to promote the United States of America and the British Empire to form an alliance.

In the face of panic in Germany, the British Empire was willing to tear its face and sell it, but the British Empire's work was really good, and Roosevelt had to take this scene seriously, but he definitely couldn't hide it, although others couldn't find any evidence, but some people didn't need evidence, such as Yang Chao.
