Chapter 1178: Resuming Negotiations

Su Zongzhen was silent, and Tu Menghu's words were very sudden. He was caught off guard suddenly, but if you think about it, it's not impossible.

Quite simply, the U.S. does have a lot of tugboats and manufacturing capacity. As long as they are willing to help, they can indeed salvage the Yamato. Of course, this takes time and a safe environment.

And these two things are about to be realized in Fukuoka. Japan has already announced its desire to negotiate, simply put, that the war with Japan is coming to an end.

After the surrender of Japan, then this sea area naturally belonged to the Wehrmacht. Security is not an issue. And the Yamato sank for several hours after being bombarded by various kinds.

In the middle although the speed of the ship dropped, and the Japanese Navy withdrew from the battleship. However, the ship sailed into the Fukuoka Inland Sea, where the water was not as deep as the open sea.

On the one hand, this also provides the possibility of salvage, of course, whether it can be fished up or not can be calculated in time. You have to dive and explore.

"If the United States assists, it is not impossible to salvage it......" Su Zongzhe pondered for a while and said, "But this is not a good deal after all!" This battleship, which has already been sunk, I guess is no longer of much use. What are you doing salvage?! ”

Tu Menghu was silent for a while when he heard this, and then smiled helplessly.

"Just think it's my willfulness!" But he saw Tu Menghu stand up and said to Su Zongzhe: "Actually, after learning that the Dingyuan was made into a hotel by the Japanese. I've always had a pimple in my heart......"

"They salvaged our warships that were in Asia back then, and they also put them out to see if they were successful! This tone. I can't take it anymore......"

Tu Menghu's eyes were cold, and he said coldly: "Actually, before Uncle Cheng Zhang talked about this matter. I already have this in mind. But considering that the consumption was too great, I gave up ......"

"But now that the Americans have begged us, then they have given us hope that we can salvage it!" Saying that, Tu Menghu laughed and said, "Even if this battleship is useless, I will salvage it." Even if I can't salvage it all, at least I'm going to salvage parts of it! ”

"In the future, we will build a museum of the navy, and we will tell those descendants that we will tell the children and grandchildren! Our warriors are so ashamed! We're going to tell them. Whoever humiliates us, then we will be humiliated back! If they dare to throw shit at us, we're going to take shit and paste them in the face! ”

Su Zongzhen stroked his forehead helplessly, okay! Even Tu Mengben has been the commander-in-chief of the Wehrmacht for many years. Even if he carries millions of troops for years.

But the temperament in his bones has not changed at all, even if the Japanese give him a needle, he will take the mountain axe and return the axe. The tiger nature that he was born with is fully revealed.

"Uncle Qiliu, don't think it's wrong for me to do this. In fact. I'm the right thing to do! Tu Menghu laughed. "The time for our rise is too short, and we can only rely on our fists to establish the prestige of our country. ”

"Whoever provokes us will be beaten and beaten down! If you don't, everyone will treat you as a fool and bully. Only when you beat more people will everyone respect you. Even if they don't respect your country, at least they respect your fists. ”

Tu Menghu said, slowly walked to the window and looked at the bustling crowd outside the window. After a while, he said to Su Zongzhen behind him.

"The strong give in. It will be considered a charity. And the concession of the weak can only be seen as weak. The strong even take three steps back. The enemy may not dare to go any further. And the weak, even if you don't retreat, they want to take three or five steps into you! This is the truth of the world, and the truth is only in the size of your fist, not in your character. ”

Tu Menghu thought of Vietnam and Iraq in later generations, and thought of Afghanistan in later generations. Yes, the United States eventually retreated. But will anyone think that this is the weakness of the United States?!

No, no one will think that the United States is weak. Because they have smashed all those small countries out of with their fists countless times. And again, Russia shows no signs of backing down in South Ossetia.

But Georgia launched a sudden attack, and even thought of rushing into Russian territory in one step and two steps. They think that Russia is weak, they believe that Russia has lost its former strength.

It's a pity that they read it wrong. Emperor Pu punched and kicked him, and almost overthrew Georgia completely. The Russians eventually withdrew, but left the Georgians with a word.

"Dear Georgian comrades, please seriously study the art of war, and we will come back and test you again. 71st Motorized Rifle Regiment".

White House spokesman John Droz said that if Russia seized any U.S. military equipment in Georgia, Russia should return it immediately, as they were about to be shipped back to China, and those who were about to be shipped back to the Georgian Black Sea port of Poti were becoming trophies of the Russians.

And Russia's response was ...... No response.

"Picking up the Yamato is not just a memorial to the Navy. Nor is it just a warning to future generations. More importantly, we want to tell those who try to beat us up in the future......"

Tu Menghu smiled, and the white teeth on his lips were cold.

"If you want to make up your mind, you have to be prepared for your own death." Tu Menghu smiled, laughing so coldly. Even Su Zongzhe, who was beside him, felt a chill on his body.

"Japan...... Just be an example! Use him to tell the wretches that they want to beat our minds. You have to be ready to be pierced in the asshole with our red-hot tiger pose! ”

Well, Su Zongzhen shrugged his shoulders. If you do, it's a good choice.

At this time, Xiyuan Temple also received a reply from the Wehrmacht. Yang Yuting and Su Zongzhe signed together, agreeing to Japan's resumption of negotiations. Before the negotiations broke down, the two sides temporarily ceasefired.

During the cease-fire, once the Japanese attack the Wehrmacht, the Wehrmacht will break the cease-fire and terminate the negotiations to continue the offensive. When he received this notice, Saionji's face darkened.

The meaning of the coalition government and the Defence Forces is clear: if we are not satisfied with this negotiation, then we can relaunch the offensive at any time. As for the reason...... Isn't that easy?! It would be good for the Japanese to sneak up on us.

As for whether it was a sneak attack or not, it doesn't matter. In any case, on Japanese soil, even if a dog barked twice at the Wehrmacht, they had the right to claim that the Akita dog was instructed by the Japanese army to launch an attack on the Wehrmacht.

"This negotiation is extremely important for the Empire! If the negotiations fail, everyone must know what the empire will face......"

Kantaro Suzuki looked at the cabinet members in the conference room and said with great solemnity: "Here, Suzuki also pleaded with you. Restrain those radicals and don't do anything at this time......"

War Minister Anan Wei's face remained unchanged when he heard this, but he already had a chuckle in his heart. Although Kantaro Suzuki didn't say it explicitly, he knew very well who the person he was referring to was secretly.

On the night that Hirohito decided to negotiate surrender, his brother-in-law, Masahiko Takeshita, a member of the Military Affairs Division, went to his house with five militant officers.

During this meeting, several people presented him with the so-called "troop mobilization plan". The plan was to carry out a coup d'Γ©tat with the power of the Minister of War to send troops to the local emergency when he was on alert.

The coup was to use the forces of the Eastern Army and the Guards Division, and immediately after the start, Kantaro Suzuki, Koichi Kido, Minister of Internal Affairs, Shigetoku Togo, and Mitsumasa Yonechi were ...... Wait for the lord and the dignitaries to be separated from the palace.

Martial law was then imposed throughout Tokyo, and negotiations continued until the conditions for defending the national body were assured.

Truth be told, the plan is tempting. At least Anan couldn't deny that he was extremely moved when he heard about this plan. If all the main peace factions are seized by force, and negotiations are insisted on.

Then this plan did have a chance to be realized, but Anan quickly calmed down. Hirohito expressed his wishes directly, which was extremely rare in the Imperial Council.

And all the support of the army comes from the authority of Hirohito. No one knows better than him what will happen if Hirohito comes forward and says he does not support the coup.

The 226 that was once launched was because Hirohito personally expressed his dissupport. In the end, those who started it were wiped out. Therefore, Anan did not explicitly express his support.

But he didn't directly object, just said that he needed to think about it. As for how long it will take, he did not reply.

"If the negotiations fail, we'll talk about other ways to deal with it. But until the negotiation fails, I don't want anything to stop this negotiation......" Kantaro Suzuki glanced at everyone and said, "This is also Your Majesty's will, I hope you will obey it!" ”

"Hai ......" everyone replied and bowed slightly. But what was going on in their hearts is unknown.

After the Cabinet meeting, Saionji embarks on a journey to Fukuoka. This time, he brought people who did not have a military department with him, and Hirohito personally decided that the soldiers of the base camp were not allowed to participate in the negotiations.

The people who sent them were all members of the Cabinet. And the Privy Councillor, Kiichiro Hiranuma, was ordered to go with Saionji. The last bit of coal drove the train slowly towards Fukuoka.

Along the way, Saionji couldn't help but burst into tears as he watched the Japanese bombed by the Wehrmacht. I never thought that Japan would be where it is today. Some time ago, the Wehrmacht bombed almost all of Japan's transportation hubs.

Tokyo was the focus of air raids, and even the Imperial Palace was bombed several times. This is also the reason why Hirohito made up his mind and demanded that he surrender as long as the status of the imperial family was guaranteed.

And when Hirohito learned that the Wehrmacht had a bomb that could blow up even five meters of fortifications underground. The determination to surrender was even stronger. (To be continued......)

PS: Chapter 2, the Battle of Japan is coming to an end soon. The book is also nearing its end, and efforts are being made to present the final ending of the book. Stay tuned.
