Deputy Toyoda immediately said: "Masan, our navy is a righteous army that opens up thousands of miles of waves and spreads the power of the country in all directions, and it is by no means different from those bastards in the army who are brutal and brutal and do not obey commands, so compared to them, our navy is indeed pro-China.

Ma Zheng sneered: "Is it pro-China? It is precisely because of the guidance of this ideology that you have formulated a mainland policy of aggression against China, and it can be said that aggression against China is an established policy for the Japanese army and navy, and as for your opposition to the army's war of aggression against China, it is nothing but a dog eats a dog, and there are no pro-China people for you, only a conflict of interests. ”
Regarding the Japanese Navy's opposition to the invasion of China, Ma Zheng once heard from a professor at the military academy, and the professor's original words at that time were: "There are no pro-China people in the Japanese army and navy, only a conflict of interests!" ”
The reason for this is that after the Meiji Restoration, there were many factions in Japan's military and political circles, and there was a dispute between the Satsuma and Choshu domains at the top level alone. This is especially true after entering the 20th century, when the Baden-Baden secret faction, the imperial faction, and the unification faction began to rise, and names familiar to Chinese, such as Hideki Tojo, Ninji Okamura, Tetsuyama Nagata, Sadao Araki, Toshiro Ohata, and Masanobu Tsuji, all made waves in the Japanese political and military circles during this period. Within the Japanese army, the contradictions between the navy and the army reached the point of irreconcilability.
In addition to the dispute between the Sachang Domain, the strategy of the army and navy was fundamentally different, with the army advocating invasion of China to expand its own interests, and the navy advocating going south to conquer Southeast Asia and seize the rich minerals and oil.
In addition to the strategic differences, the army's wanton behavior led to damage to the interests of the navy, which was also the reason why Minai and others opposed the invasion of China. From the "September 18 Incident" to the North China Incident, the Japanese Army continued to step up its aggression against China. Japan's actions exposed its ambitions to the whole world, inviting countermeasures from the United States and Britain. Under pressure from the United States and Britain, the navy had to "make amends" to the foreign powers, while the troublesome army grabbed a lot of benefits. The Japanese Navy, which had suffered losses, hated the Army to the core, and at the same time, the strength of the "US-British Coordination faction" within the Navy was also strengthened.
Looking through the personal history of Mine, this naval boss can make a career without the "two. 26" incident during the repression of the Army. On the evening of February 26, 1936, young officers of the Imperial Road faction in the Japanese Army staged a mutiny and assassinated several high-ranking Japanese military and political officials. After the incident, Minai led the 1st and 2nd Fleets to blockade Tokyo Bay and strongly supported the suppression. Ten months later, Minei was several ranks higher to the rank of commander of the Combined Fleet.
The deep-seated struggle of interests is intertwined with the struggle for very different directions, so that the dead knot between the navy and the army cannot be untied at all. It is not difficult to understand why the above-mentioned people would oppose the army's invasion of China.
Therefore, there were indeed some people in the Japanese Navy who opposed the invasion of China, but they were all for the sake of safeguarding their own interests and coordinating relations with the United States and Britain, rather than thinking about China. For example, Hasegawa Kiyoshi did not advocate expanding the war in order to protect the Japanese nationals, but during the Battle of Songhu, it was precisely he who commanded the Third Fleet to attack the Chinese defenders many times, and organized the Japanese naval air force to carry out "cross-ocean critting" attacks on many occasions to strike at the Chinese air force stationed in Jianqiao, Qiaosi, Guangde, Zengshui, and Daxiaochang, causing huge casualties to the Chinese military and civilians.
Ma Zheng's words made Toyota's vice president unable to refute, so he could only sigh and say: "Ma San, you are a great general, I only hope you don't make it too difficult for those poor soldiers!" ”
"My soldiers and I have no intention of embarrassing your soldiers, but as long as they cooperate with us, otherwise we will not show mercy." Ma Zheng said.
"Well, if that's the case, I'll give the soldiers an order to surrender in the name of the fleet commander, and as long as I have my order, I'm sure they'll cooperate with your troops." Deputy Takeshi Toyoda said in a deep voice.
If other troops were replaced, it would be impossible for Vice Toyoda to succumb, even if he died. According to the information collected by the intelligence department, Ma Zheng's department's hatred for the Japanese military and civilians has reached a perverted level, and as long as they do not cooperate with them, both generals and soldiers will be ruthlessly destroyed by humanity.
Especially those generals who will not be able to rest in peace when they die, and will be exhibited around by the Shina people as war trophies, such as His Excellency Hasunuma, the former chief of the guard of His Majesty the Emperor, a living example!
Looking at Ma Zheng's young face, Deputy Takeshi Toyoda sighed and asked, "Ma San, judging from the direction of the ship's sailing, it seems that your department is going to return to the Saibei grassland, will these warships be blown up and sunk at that time?" ”
After solving the problems of the soldiers, Vice Takeshi Toyoda was worried about the fate of these ships.
It is no wonder that as a naval admiral, Vice Takeshi Toyoda still has a lot of affection for these warships, after all, it is not easy to build a large warship. Take, for example, the Ashigara heavy cruiser they are currently aboarding, one of the Myoko-type heavy cruisers designed by Vice Admiral Hiraga Jean, the famous god of warships in the Japanese Navy, and the latest to be completed of this type of warship.
The heavy cruiser Ashigara has a total length of 203.76 m and a displacement of 10,940 tons. In the early years of the Showa era, during the construction of the Myoko-type heavy cruisers, Japan's unprecedented economic panic coincided with the Kobe Kawasaki Shipyard, which was building the Ashigara, and was running out of steam. Therefore, the navy had no choice but to set up a so-called "temporary shipbuilding office of the Ship Administration Headquarters" to support the Kobe Kawasaki Shipbuilding Institute, and in this way it lasted from the 14th year of Taisho to the 4th year of Showa.
Moreover, as the flagship of the Second Fleet, the heavy cruiser Ashigara still has a very high status in the Japanese Navy, and it would be a pity if it was blown up like this.
Thinking that the general in front of him could make a deal with the fools of the army and exchange the captured soldiers for money and more prisoners of war in China, Vice Takeshi Toyoda suddenly had a crazy idea, whether to let the navy make a deal with this general in China to save these precious warships.
But before Toyota's deputy military commander could say this, he was stunned by what he heard next.
I only heard Ma Zheng smile and said: "General Toyota, you are wrong, the ship is indeed heading north, but the destination is not the northern grassland!" ”
"Where is that?" Vice Takeshi Toyoda asked curiously.
"Tianjin!"
"Tianjin? Nani, are you going to attack the port of Tianjin? Vice Takeshi Toyoda suddenly reacted and said in surprise.
"Guessed it, but there was no reward!" Ma Zheng said with a smile.
"Do you want to rely on these people to attack Tianjin Port?" Vice Takeshi Toyoda asked with a look of disbelief.
"Why, can't you?" Ma Zheng asked rhetorically.
"The port of Tianjin is the most important northern port of the Japanese Empire in China, more important than Qingdao, not only a large number of army and navy ships are stationed here, but also there is the Tanggu Fort to use, and it is impossible for the sailors under your command who have not undergone much training to take the port of Tianjin!" Deputy Takeshi Toyoda said loudly.
Ma Zheng smiled disdainfully and said, "If we Chinese still fight according to what you say, as long as your Japanese warship stops at our doorstep, we can simply surrender." What you said does exist, but it doesn't pose much of a threat to us. ”
"Nani?"
"Think about it, what is the strength of your Second Fleet, although it can't be said to be invincible, but it should be very good for these naval bases in China, but what is the result, I just sent a few hundred army forces to defeat all of you and capture them, and even Qingdao City and your naval base have all been defeated, now I have so many naval ships will still be afraid of a Tianjin port?" Ma Zheng said.
Deputy Takeshi Toyoda thought about what Ma Zheng said, and suddenly the whole person froze, yes, the Chinese in front of him defeated them not by strong ships and artillery, but by hundreds of army troops familiar with water, that's all.
After a long time, Toyota's deputy martial artist held back a sentence: "Do you plan to repeat your old tricks?" (To be continued.) )
