Chapter 275: Sunset (Finale)

"Fire! Fire! Fire! "In the port area of Yokohama, two armies wearing the same khaki uniforms and using the same weapons are engaged in a fierce exchange of fire. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe intensity of the battle is terrifying. From time to time, a large group of soldiers would shout and rush out of the position with guns in their hands and fight for their lives. The entire port area was filled with raging fires and howling wounded.

There are people who want to follow the Americans all the way to black, and naturally there will be people who want to follow Daming. For hundreds of years, Japan was deeply influenced by the continental empire, and there were countless people in Japan who wanted to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. After learning that the emperor was about to be taken hostage to the port area of Yokohama, these people, who knew the importance of the emperor, quickly began to rescue him.

In politics. Japan, where the government has gradually lost its ability to control the country, is now in great chaos. Even the military does not know who to listen to or who is right. Many contradictory orders were sent to the army, which made the army dazed. However, one thing is clear about the Japanese army, they are loyal to the emperor.

Both the attackers and the defenders considered themselves to be protecting the emperor. The attackers believed that they were rescuing the emperor who had fallen into the hands of rebellious ministers and thieves. The defenders, on the other hand, believed that they were protecting the emperor and would not be handed over to the Ming army by the traitors. These soldiers, who also shouted "Long live the emperor" to send them to their death, would never understand the cruelty of the struggle from above. They're just small pieces and numbers.

The road to the location of the Americans' submarine was blocked. It's only a short distance, but it's impossible to get over it anyway. Faced with the influx of troops from all directions, the Minister of the Interior, who was one of the main planners of the hijacking of the emperor, was anxious. Seeing that the sky is about to dawn, once the sky is bright, no one will be able to leave when the fighters of the Ming army come. What's more, the American submarines will definitely not wait for dawn, they will wait for another hour at most.

"Takahashi-kun!" The Minister of the Interior looked at a lieutenant general beside him and said in a deep voice, "There is no time left, please open the passage immediately and send His Majesty the Emperor to board the submarine!" ”

Since the Ming army landed on Kyushu Island, the Japanese Navy, which had suffered heavy losses and lost a large number of high-ranking generals, began to look at the army's jokes.

Numerous Japanese divisions, brigades, and regiments. The troops were shattered under the fierce attack of the Ming army. Now that they are fighting on their own soil, the senior officers of the Japanese army can no longer use various excuses to get by, as they did during the Korean dispatch period. Once the country is defeated and lost, it is basically the end of dying in battle or apologizing. Only a very small number of senior Japanese commanders chose to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

Unlike the mass surrender of those ordinary Japanese soldiers. There were too many of those soldiers, and their status was low, and no one was in the mood or spare time to track down the identities of these Japanese soldiers so that they could sanction their families.

However, once the high-ranking officers of the Japanese army surrendered, they would soon be known to the Japanese government. Neither in terms of influence nor anything else is far from being comparable to ordinary soldiers or even junior officers. In order not to affect their families, many high-ranking officers of the Japanese army committed suicide or chose to die in battle after the defeat.

After several months of fierce fighting, the Japanese Army also had at least one general army, and more than 10 armies of the four front armies and hundreds of divisions, regiments, brigades and regiments were defeated, broken and annihilated. The number of casualties was as high as the millions, and the number of high-ranking generals who were damaged in the battle was innumerable.

Basically, people who were already generals before the war have long since died. After all, they are definitely the first choice to go to the front line of combat. For example, Seishiro Itagaki, Hideki Tojo, Ninji Okamura, Fumimi Yamashita, Ishine Matsui, Kenji Dohihara, Sugiyama Moto, and others have already died on the battlefield.

In the case of a large number of war losses, it has become a natural thing to quickly promote a group of middle-level officers to their posts. Most of these mid-level officers are younger and more aggressive. For example, the new commander of the 3rd Guards Division called Yuji Takahashi is one of them.

Yuji Takahashi, who was just a wing chief of staff before the war, was unwilling to admit defeat, and he wanted to continue fighting. So when the Minister of the Interior's people approached him, Yuji Takahashi quickly agreed. As long as the emperor is still around, there is hope for the Great Japanese Empire! That's what Yuji Takahashi thinks.

It's actually more because of the fear of the winners. As the losers, the Japanese do not want to see the victors standing on their bodies triumphantly, and they will do their best to block the Ming Dynasty, even if it costs them their lives.

"Stand up!" With Takahashi Yuji's roar, a group of Japanese army daredevils who were still naked in the cold sky and had menstrual cloths tied to their heads poured out of the position. Howling and carrying explosives packets, he poured into the opposite defensive position, staging a brilliant suicidal charge to his former colleagues.

With a series of explosions, the road to the dock was finally blown open.

"To the west." The Minister of the Interior finally showed a smile on his face, raised his hand to wipe his forehead, and hurriedly urged the royal convoy to move in the direction of the dock berths. Don't let that American submarine run away in advance!

The old Minister of the Interior is very smart. He pulled out the honor guard and the convoy where the emperor was traveling, and no one dared to fire near the convoy. The Minister of the Interior, who was hiding in the convoy, was also very safe. However, doing so also led to the exposure of the target, which made them hindered and delayed at every turn. Whether it's good or bad, no one can say.

It was already starting to lighten, and the rebels who finally arrived at the dock cheered excitedly when they saw the American submarine. They haven't gone yet!

"Your Excellency! You've worked hard, let's go. After seeing the captain of the American submarine waiting for him, the Interior Secretary, who had been in a high position, stepped forward and saluted respectfully like a dock worker. No way, he also wants a ticket to the United States to meet his family. Don't look at him as he is already a handful of years, but if he wants to live, he has a lot of thoughts about living well.

"I'm so sorry." The blonde and blue-eyed bearded American captain shook his head with a wry smile and said in proficient Chinese: "The Trout, which was cruising outside Tokyo Bay, sent a telegram a few hours ago saying that a large number of Ming naval warships had entered Tokyo Bay and completely blocked all shipping lanes. They even laid deep mines to prevent possible submarines from diving. We've been sealed here, and we can't leave. ”

The Americans did not come with only one submarine this time, but two. One entered Tokyo Bay to pick up people, and the other was open to sea. The U.S. submarine, which was in the open sea, spotted a large number of warships of the Ming Navy before it got dark, and then completely sealed off the harbor.

"How so?!" The Minister of the Interior had an expression of disbelief on his face, how could Da Ming get the news so quickly? Why didn't the shore artillery and warships stationed on the Boso Peninsula and the Yokosuka Naval Port attack? A terrible thought rushed into his heart, and the Minister of the Interior, whose body was trembling slightly, turned to look at the royal motorcade not far away, and whispered in a distracted voice, "Your Majesty, why are you doing this?" This is your country. ”

That's right, the person who sent a message to the Ming Dynasty and ordered the defenders not to attack the Ming fleet was the Emperor of Japan.

He has already made up his mind that he will never go to the United States to be a dangerous puppet. The reason why it is a dangerous puppet is because after being hit by the Ming Dynasty for more than a year, the young emperor has deeply felt the strength of the Ming Dynasty. He didn't think that there was any other country in this world, or which countries could compete with the Ming Dynasty.

The young emperor was determined to follow the Ming Dynasty, even if he was a puppet, he would be the puppet of the Ming Dynasty. For the underdogs, the eternal rule of their world is to be on the side of the victor, or the likely winner.

In the end, the operation to kidnap the emperor to the Americas, instigated by the U.S. Embassy, failed. Unwilling to risk almost certain death, the captain of the American submarine ordered his troops to attack and seize the submarine in a state of frenzy, preparing for a group of landlubbers to drive a submarine with advanced technology to load the emperor to fight his way out of the tight blockade of the Ming army, and then send it to the American continent thousands of miles away. This kind of crazy idea was not even thought of by the Minister of the Interior, who was already in despair.

When the entangled noise, the ground forces of the Ming army arrived.

Hundreds of tanks roared and pushed away anything that stood in their way, and slaughtered the dock area with a great deterrent that no one could stop. A large number of Ming marines jumped out of the accompanying armored vehicles and trucks to attack the Japanese rebels, who had no way out.

"This is the Emperor and Empress of Japan?" He Dazui looked at the emperor and his wife who were closely guarded with a look like a pig brother, and opened his mouth with a smashing mouth.

"Hmm." Song Tieniu, who was bored and leaning against the truck and watching the Japanese start to clean up the mess, nodded, "That's them." ”

"With so much powder on my face, I can't see anything." He muttered unwillingly.

"Alright." Song Tieniu took out the chocolate and shook his head and said, "Let's intercept the Japanese emperor and his wife, this great credit is enough for you to brag about for a lifetime." Want to do so much? You think you can touch it? ”

"Hey, yes." He Dazui grinned, and then leaned towards Song Tieniu with a strange smile, "The war in Japan is over, I heard that Tokyo is an extremely prosperous city, if we are stationed here, then we must be chic." ”

"This is just the beginning." Song Tieniu shook his head, looked at the vast sea with the rising sun in the distance, and muttered with a light sigh of relief, "The war is not over yet, we are marines." (To be continued.) )
