Chapter 517: Opportunity for the Japanese

In Tokyo, Taiwan's biggest traitor, Genjiro Akashi, is briefing Japan's Emperor Meiji and other ministers on the current situation, especially in China.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, the generals, and the officials of the Cabinet, I would now like to give you a brief account of what we have received at the Shina. At present, in the capital of China, Suncheonfu, they have already begun to be very chaotic. They are now a lot of Boxer mobs have begun to go crazy, and they have begun to rob, **, eat overlord meals and so on. And according to my situation, someone used the so-called invulnerability to say something to their queen mother, and as a result, their queen mother really believed that she could be invulnerable, hoping that she would be able to resist us foreigners when the time came. They were even able to defeat the Taiwanese by relying on invulnerability, so they also allowed those people to do evil in the capital. And those Boxer mobs used the slogan of helping the Qing to destroy the foreigners, so that many foreigners did not dare to leave the protection of the embassy area. Even much of their wealth outside the embassy district was looted, looted by the Boxer mob, and then suffered heavy losses. ”

Genjiro Akashi introduced these to everyone, in fact, these are some public information, not confidential. Even all countries will get it, so there is no need for Akashi Genjiro to hide it, but to introduce it bluntly. And those high-ranking Japanese officials are also pointing fingers, obviously because of this feeling. The Japanese officials and the Meiji Emperor were not too disappointed but were very happy when they heard that their country's embassies and consulates were threatened and that the interests of a large number of expatriates were being harmed. Because they know that this is a pretext, an excuse to take advantage of this opportunity to invade China. As long as there is an excuse, it will be easy to do.

"Akashi, what the hell do you think. Say it! Emperor Meiji said.

Akashi Motojiro immediately suggested, "Your Majesty the Emperor, in fact, my suggestion is that we can take this opportunity to take the initiative. Since we collapsed in Taiwan a few years ago, the Manchu government in China has been very disrespectful to me, and all kinds of indemnities have been very small, and they are completely squeezing toothpaste. They're trying to send us away with Hanako, which we certainly can't tolerate. Soyi has to teach them a lesson. Then send troops to take advantage of this opportunity to attack China, and finally achieve the purpose of teaching them a lesson. And we may be able to get a lot of benefits, such as regaining Liaodong and Taiwan. ”

The reason why Genjiro Akashi proposed to send troops to China was actually because he wanted to make political capital. Because about sending troops to China, even if Genjiro Akashi doesn't say this, then those high-ranking Japanese officials will also put it forward, after all, this is an opportunity, a great opportunity for Japan! No normal person would miss this opportunity, especially those high-ranking Japanese officials. It's all a bunch of old fritters, how can they not see it. Since Genjiro Akashi knew that they would definitely be able to see it, there was no need for him to die and stop Japan from sending troops. Japan's dispatch of troops is actually inevitable, so of course Genjiro Akashi will not be clever to stop it, and as a genius agent, he certainly will not do such a stupid thing. Akashi Genjiro is actually basically the same Akashi Genjiro as before, and he still has the same ability as before. The Red Alert system has simply changed his allegiance. So Genjiro Akashi is still a genius in the secret service industry, an absolute genius.

"But. Taiwan is not something to be messed with. When the time comes, if the mainland government cooperates with Taiwan, what should we do? Although I don't want to extinguish my prestige, I do want to say the truth, and we can only barely defeat the mainland alone, but we have almost no chance of winning in the face of Taiwan! Someone said right away.

However, Akashi Motojiro immediately said, "Then we might as well cooperate with other countries." Aren't the embassies and consulates of various countries also under siege? We might as well work with the nations and attack them together, and our chances of victory will be greater. As long as I can pull all countries into the water together, then I will not face Taiwan alone, and then I can get a great opportunity. Anyway, there is a huge China. I can't finish it, so instead of not being able to finish it, it's better to let all countries come together to get the rain and dew evenly, so that we can all get a satisfactory result. And let all countries come out to attack together, that is to share a lot of risks. If we go alone, I am afraid that in the face of the joint pressure from Taiwan and the mainland, then I am afraid that our risk will be very huge. But together, there is not much risk. ”

The Japanese officials also nodded, because what Akashi Motojiro said was right, especially about cooperation with Western countries, and that was the only way to solve this problem. As long as we can cooperate with other countries, we will definitely be able to defeat Taiwan next, and then prepare for our next aggressive plan. If Japan were to attack China alone, they would face dual pressure from Taiwan and the mainland, especially if the two sides could complement each other. By then, their defeat was inevitable, so they hoped to be able to pull in the West. If you can pull in Western countries, and then let Western countries fight with Taiwan, then you can reap the benefits of fishermen.

If we rely on our own strength alone, it is impossible to defeat Taiwan, so it is inevitable to unite with other countries. And this Akashi Genjiro knows that even if he doesn't have himself, these guys who want to invade China and want to go crazy will think of it, so instead of letting others say it, it is better to let himself say it, so that he can maximize his own interests. Anyway, it is an inevitable fact that Japan will send troops, so of course I must get the benefits as soon as possible, and then I can get the opportunity.

"Okay, I will immediately let the ministers stationed in various countries lobby the countries, and then let the countries send troops together, so that we can all gradually encroach on China together!" Emperor Meiji said.

Hearing Emperor Meiji's words, the major officials of the Japanese military present were also excited, this is an opportunity, a very huge opportunity. As long as you can take this opportunity to bite off a piece of meat from China, that is the best. And if all countries come together, it is equivalent to sharing the pressure and can solve many problems. As long as all countries come together to share the pressure, then there is no need to worry about any accidents, and when the time comes, you can completely clean up Taiwan's Wang Guorui, so that you don't have to be afraid of anything.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, please order this war against China!" Genjiro Akashi said.

"Oh? Aiqing Akashi, are you going to go on the expedition in person this time? Emperor Meiji asked.

Akashi Genjiro said with certainty: "Yes, the minister hopes to be able to take the initiative to go on the expedition. And only when a soldier is on the front line of the battlefield can he truly experience war. Instead of sitting in the office in the rear all the time, it is easy to get out of touch with the reality of the battlefield, which will inevitably lead to the loss of troops. I believe that staff officers in the rear should not only be familiar with the staff officers' business, but also go to the front line to fight on a regular basis and personally experience the situation of the war on the front line, so that they can become familiar with the battlefield. Only by being familiar with the battlefield can we make better plans for the future, and will not make plans that are out of touch with reality. ”

"Well, that makes sense." Emperor Meiji said.

And everyone knows that Genjiro Akashi wants to take this opportunity to gain political capital. This time, Akashi Genjiro is Emperor Meiji's favorite general, and since returning to Japan a few years ago, he has been in charge of intelligence work in Taiwan and China, and is now the vice minister of the second department, directly responsible for intelligence work in Taiwan and Chinese mainland. However, if he wants to be promoted next, it will not be so easy. Because if you want to be promoted, it is difficult to continue to go further in the staff headquarters. Because Akashi Genjiro doesn't have much military exploits, and a soldier who doesn't have military exploits can't go far.

So in everyone's eyes, Akashi Genjiro hopes to be able to fight on the front line, and then make meritorious achievements to obtain gold, so as to lay the foundation for his future promotion. If you have been in the staff headquarters, you will definitely not be able to get promoted. Therefore, it is necessary to jump out of this circle and go to other places to work, so as to accumulate qualifications and exercise gilding, so that you can continue to be promoted.

And no one knows that the reason why Akashi Genjiro hopes to participate in this war against China is actually that he hopes to cooperate with Wang Guorui's Taiwanese army, and then continue to carry forward the spirit of being a traitor, sell intelligence vigorously, and then prepare for Taiwan to defeat the Japanese army. And he can be a-stirring stick in the coalition of countries, specializing in sabotaging their plans and taking them to the ditch. And all countries would never have imagined that a major general of the Japanese Army would actually be a traitor in Taiwan. No matter which country it is, the major general is a high-ranking officer, and he is still an officer in charge of intelligence, and everyone thinks that he will be a cronie. But if this major general of Japan is a traitor, then what kind of war will the coalition forces of various countries fight?

Therefore, the strongest fortresses are breached from the inside, and Akashi Genjiro also acts as this-stirring stick, specifically making trouble in the coalition forces of various countries, causing huge losses to the coalition forces of various countries.

"Okay, let's go and get in touch with each other in foreign countries, and then try to get the other countries to send troops together, so that we can get enough benefits, understand?" Emperor Meiji said.

"Hey!" The Japanese generals and officials present also replied together.

Soon, Akashi Genjiro also followed everyone away, and no one knew it, and a treacherous smile appeared on his mouth. (To be continued......)
