Yes, the high seas.

Since it is the high seas, the US-Japan security agreement does not apply, this alliance treaty only stipulates that when the Japanese country is invaded by a foreign country, the United States has the obligation to provide protection, but it does not mean that when the Japanese country and other countries have a conflict on the high seas, the United States is also obliged to help, there is an essential difference between within and outside the 12-nautical-mile territorial sea line.

In fact, Yang Feng took such a strange trick that made people speechless, and Truman was completely relieved.

He also didn't want to fight, last year the farmers of the rice country exported a full 5 million tons of grain to the Ming Dynasty, in addition to 1 million tons of meat and 300,000 tons of liquor, according to the population of less than 30 million, the liquor alone has to be 10 kilograms per person, the rich Chinese in terms of food and drink extravagance is simply jaw-dropping, and now some farmers in the rice country in order to adapt to their tastes, have begun to learn from the Australians, large-scale cultivation of rice.

In addition to this, there are equally huge amounts of cigarettes.

In order to make up for the huge trade deficit between the United States and the Ming Dynasty, Yang Feng still imposes tariffs on the import of grain and meat from South America that are much higher than those imported from the United States, and all grains and meat, alcohol, and cigarettes are only imported from the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

Once the relationship between the two sides breaks down, those farmers alone can bite the president of the United States.

What's more, until now, Daming is still importing a large amount of crude oil and minerals from the United States.

In the end, the degree of interdependence between the two sides has reached the point where no one dares to touch the other, and this way is very good, Akemi can continue to talk about friendship and intrigue without tearing his face for this, and it is really not worth it for the sake of the Japanese country. As for the difficulties of the Wa Kingdom. Let them grit their teeth and hold on. As a younger brother, you have to make some sacrifices for the boss when you need it. It's a big deal to give them more dollars to do for assistance, and then let them increase imports from the United States, anyway, Yang Feng's fleet only sank the Japanese country's own merchant ships, and it is impossible to sink the rice merchant ships traveling to and from the Japanese country.

Of course, proper performance is also essential, after all, it can't make the Japanese people too chilled.

Immediately afterwards, the government of the United States issued a statement expressing regret over the behavior of the Ming army, which is extremely contrary to common sense. The US government will pay close attention to it, hoping that the Ming Empire will be able to deal with the dispute with the Japanese in a rational way, and at the same time reaffirm its respect for the US-Japan security agreement, and once the territory of the Japanese is invaded, the United States will firmly fulfill its alliance obligations.

In addition, in order to show its determination to protect the Japanese state, more fighter planes will be sent to the Japanese country, and the navy will continue to be on guard in the area of activity of the Ming fleet, and in addition, it will help the Japanese country establish a maritime self-defense force and an air self-defense force.

But it didn't help.

The Ming Army's High Seas Fleet and the Goryeo Army, the Royal Goryeo Navy and Air Force still roamed the waters outside the Japanese Seas, and sank a Japanese merchant ship when they saw it. They didn't even bother to catch them, and the fishing boats were even targeted by them. Not only during the day, but also at night, aircraft and warships equipped with night vision devices and high-precision radars monitored their safari areas day and night, and found that one was sunk.

In fact, it is a big deal to hire merchant ships from the United States, but this fishing ban really kills them.

The main source of protein for the Japanese people is the fishery, which is the main nutritional needs of the Japanese people, because their food production is insufficient, and their small land area cannot raise too many livestock. It's ruined, it's impossible to eat tuna sushi, it's hard to taste saury, and even the price of oden has doubled. On the contrary, a large number of Damyeong, Goryeo Kingdom, and even Taiwan fishing boats, which had already gathered on Jeju Island, swarmed like bloody sharks and began to loot the fishery resources that should have belonged to the Wa Kingdom, and then sent them to the Goryeo Kingdom or Tai Bay to be processed into various canned or chilled foods, and supplied to hundreds of thousands of allied soldiers in Goryeo and to diners around the world who like to eat Wa seafood.

The anger in the chests of the fishermen who were forced to squeeze into the offshore sea, fishing for the already small amount of seafood, looked at the carnival-like foreign fishing boats in the distance under the protection of the Ming army's artillery.

There must be a place to vent their anger.

It is impossible to vent to the main head, even if the fishermen of the Japanese country are brave, they also know that with their small fishing boats, they can't hit the 40,000-ton battleship, then in the end they can only turn their anger on the people they can get, on the incompetent traitorous government, and on the people who betrayed them.

That's normal, that's what human nature looks like.

In their view, the result of all this is actually very simple, that is, because the government is controlled by the capitalists, in order to protect those capitalist war criminals, they would rather sacrifice the interests of ordinary people than hand them over to Yang Feng.

It's them, it's they who recruited Mingren, it's they who recruited that demon of the South Seas!

As a result, all kinds of protests appeared on the streets of the country, protesting against the incompetence of Shigeru Yoshida, protesting against the inaction of the government, and protesting against the betrayal of the country by the United States for their own interests......

All in all, all kinds of protests, demonstrations, and even clashes with the police and the Self-Defense Forces, the Social Workers Party certainly did not miss this good opportunity, and they had seized the opportunity to do so, and a large number of underground Social Workers Party roamed among the fishermen and sold their ideas to them.

It's useless for you to do this, how can the people of the United States turn their faces for you and Yang Feng, don't you know that they are all wearing a pair of pants? What can Shigeru Yoshida do, he is a dog raised by capitalists, how could he give his master to Yang Fengquan, what did he rely on to become prime minister? Is it the support of ordinary people? Don't be funny, he was pushed up by the capitalists with money, and only we, only our Social Workers Party, are truly for the country and the people.

If you want to change your situation, only by overthrowing this incompetent government that represents the interests of the capitalists, only by driving out the US military that occupies the pit and does not, and establishing a political regime that truly belongs to the people, can you restore the prosperity and strength of the Japanese country, and can you run rampant in Asia like the empire of the past, instead of just one aircraft carrier and two battleships can hit the door as it is now.

Back then, when the empire had more than a dozen battleships and dozens of aircraft carriers, the Ming army was a fart, and it was crushed to death with a finger, isn't the Kaohsiung in the Ming fleet.

Well, just like that, the fire burns.

"Pressure, pressure breeds change, when we need to deal with a certain enemy, direct use of force is always the last resort, and the best way is to keep oppressing them, blocking them, sanctioning them, making them hungry, making their economy collapse, making their lives more and more difficult day by day, just like the chemical reaction in a petrochemical tank, when the pressure reaches a certain level, what we want will always appear."

On the dock of Yingtian Military Port, Yang Feng said to a group of generals around him with a smug face.

He has just sent away the second batch of warships that have gone north to carry out sanctions missions, including the Qi Jiguang 4 ship that has completed the refit, and the aircraft carrier Dreadnought, which has also just completed the refit, this aircraft carrier has almost completely turned into a helicopter carrier, carrying a total of 40 carrier-based helicopters, including 20 Cobras, and 10 pirate carrier-based aircraft that provide rapid support, which is far more suitable for this kind of mission than the Kunlun.

This aircraft carrier will replace the Kunlun.

The Kunlun will return to Yingtian and then enter the dockyard for a six-month extensive overhaul.

This aircraft carrier went north just to give him prestige, but if you really want to say that doing this kind of work, it is far less good than the Dreadnought, although the current Dreadnought no longer has the ability to dominate the air, but on the four Qi Jiguang-class destroyers, 240 anti-aircraft missiles are not easy to mess with, not to mention a large number of close defense guns. Moreover, the Kunlun itself is also equipped with four close-in defense guns and four eight-mounted Sea Sparrow anti-aircraft missile launchers, and the air defense capability of a single ship is also quite strong.

Fortunately, his fleet does not need to face any air pressure now, Comrade Li has already brought back Stalin's reply, Comrade Iron and Steel is not interested in mixing his, in fact, Comrade Iron and Steel is happy, Yang Feng's toss has made the fire of the Japanese country's life burning, he didn't add fuel to the fire, how could he water it. Deprived of their source of livelihood, a large number of former Hokkaido fishermen are joining guerrillas in the mountains, and a few days ago the guerrillas entered Tomakomai and stole a large amount of ammunition that had been supplied to the Self-Defense Forces.

As for the people of the United States, they also initially accepted his request, after all, he didn't want much.

It's really not much, the core of his request is the transfer of war criminals, and those war criminals are basically counted as one, and they are completely qualified to be strangled on a rope, which is very clear to even the people of the United States, no matter which one of them is burdened with a lot of blood debts, and even some media in the United States that did not have much inclination think that Yang Feng's request is very reasonable, although his methods are a little inappropriate, but there is nothing excessive in terms of his request itself.

Even Class A war criminals like Nobusuke Kishi have been released, and a political party has been formed in a grand manner, and murderers like Shiro Ishii can be exempted from approval, not to mention Yang Feng, even the Britons feel that it is excessive.

In this case, Truman didn't want to continue to entangle with Yang Feng because of these people who no longer had any value to the United States, and he was now more inclined to leave it alone, and then force the Japanese to send Yang Feng to his satisfaction.

Of course, none of the above reasons are the main ones.

The most important thing is that on the same day that the aircraft carrier Dreadsome went north, far away in Europe, on the Baltic Sea, a terrifying giant beast swam out of its dark lair like an ancient dragon.

Great exercises of the Soviet Navy in the North Sea.
