Chapter 527: War or Peace?
"Comrades! Salute to the martyrs who died bravely! β
"Comrades! Wipe away your tears and move on! β
"Comrades! Plant the flag of our Pacific Rim Federation on the island of Japan! β
Aboard the USS Los Angeles, the capital ship of the Pacific Fleet of the Pacific Rim Federation, Arthur Brown. MacArthur looked at the army he led on the dock, what a majestic army!
The total number of people is not much, that is, 50,000 people, but these Pacific Rim Imperial Army, one by one, is in high spirits, high morale, and well-equipped!
Look at these sergeants, wearing green uniforms, steel helmets, long bolt-action rifles on their backs, a row of long-handled grenades on their waists, a Gatling machine gun in a squad, and at least ten mortars in a company......
With these pieces of equipment, in this way, in terms of firepower, a company should be able to conquer a country in Africa.
And such a force will immediately fight with Arthur. MacArthur goes to that Japan!
Arthur. MacArthur was really excited, because he thought that at the beginning, he was just a prisoner, and today, he has become the youngest general in the Pacific Rim Federation, and he will also establish industry, which ......
ALL-HAIL-LEEοΌ
MacArthur couldn't help but shout, he had to shout, all thanks to His Majesty the Great Emperor!
The most important thing is that for this battle, it was His Majesty the Great Emperor who personally ordered his generals!
Yes, it was Li Mengyang who asked MacArthur to attack Japan, and this is the reason...... Doesn't it seem, right?
But however, how to fight specifically, His Majesty the Emperor did not say anything about this, but only called MacArthur after landing. Don't attack lightly, play as many defensive battles as possible.
Anyway, it's slowly consuming, and that's the key to fighting Japan, and ah, just these Japanese, their main tactics are pig bursts and meat bullets. That's good, right?
In addition, the key lies in the emperor!
Okay, that's all, let's take the rest for yourself.
So, on October 20, 1881, not long after the National Day of the Empire of the Pacific Rim Commonwealth, the Empire's marines landed on Japan!
Where is the location?
Tokyo!
Thundered! Thundered!
The Japanese side made the greatest defensive efforts, and they laid numerous mines in Tokyo Bay. Just the number of mines. You don't even need any upfront reconnaissance, you can just see it with your eyes in the past.
Dense, like duckweed floating on the sea, so, that's easy to do, to this sea **, in order to eliminate these mines.
Then, the constant explosions naturally appeared. This is a normal phenomenon, but how do the Japanese people view it at this time?
"Take it from Death Valley!"
"Wow! It's really pretty! β
"How can there be so many ships? It's weird! Why shoot at us? β
Right. That's the reaction, as if I'm watching the excitement!
Why is this so?
Because although a month has passed, the Japanese government has not told all the people about the results of the Battle of Tokyo Bay!
"The Combined Fleet is now on its way to the Taiwan battlefield!"
That's what the emperor said, so everyone has to listen to it, otherwise what else can you do?
Moreover, it is normal for the Japanese people to be domesticated now. It's a group of cultists, these guys just know how to worship His Majesty the Emperor, and then they are ready to sacrifice themselves to the Emperor anytime and anywhere, and that's what they're all about.
So, after seeing someone firing at himself. It's normal for them to behave like this, but after all, this is being bombarded!
"What the hell is going on?"
"The Pacific Rim Federation has hit Tokyo?"
"Hirofumi Ito is out! Give us the Word! β
"Saigo is never here, what about Yamamoto Gonbei?"
Immediately, a lot of Japanese people went to the Diet to make trouble.
Although Japan is now a pretty good cult organization that has been brainwashed and washed, there are always people whose brains have a bit of a normal circuit, and they know that something is wrong, so what should we do now?
What are Ito Hirobumi and Yamamoto Gonbei doing?
"Your Majesty! At this time, there is only one war! We can't hold back! β
"What? You bastard! It's still emphasizing the war! It's not you going anyway, right? Also, didn't you, the dog official, say that you wanted to negotiate with each other before? How has it changed now? β
At this time, Ito Hirobumi and Yamamoto Gonbei were in front of the emperor, and these two were arguing now, but it was Ito Hirobumi who was the main battle!
Why?
Didn't Hirofumi Ito want peace talks before?
In fact, as long as the sober-minded Japanese can figure out this matter, that is, Japan now has no strength to fight, and the sea was beaten badly, and the army was thrown out, and the prince fled back, but he had been beaten to the ground up.
In addition, almost all strategic resources are blocked, so how can this battle be fought?
However, Hirobumi Ito knows one thing, that is, if it doesn't fight now, then Japan will have no bargaining chips!
What kind of peace talks are you going to make now? Nothing!
Therefore, now you can only fight to the death, otherwise if you go to negotiate, the Pacific Rim Federation must be a lion with a big mouth, have you seen the situation of the Manchu Qing Dynasty before?
Japan will be even worse than the Manchus, and it will be much worse, because the Manchus at least have land to cut and silver to pay for, and what does Japan have now?
The land is four islands, and there are constant earthquakes and volcanoes.
The money is almost gone, it's blocked, and it's quite poor.
Then the rest is to sell people, there are 60 million people in Japan now, men and women, you can take a look, you can take whatever you want......
This is the result imagined by Hirobumi Ito, and there is no other possibility, so, if you don't fight to the death, will you suffer this humiliation?
But Gonbei Yamamoto's idea is also simple, he is now the commander of the light pole. The navy is gone, the army is not reaching, he is now a guy who throws mines into the sea.
So in such a situation, just fart, just surrender, save us all dead.
But what does the emperor think?
"Fight!"
Don't really say it. This time, the emperor really listened to Hirobumi Ito.
Of course, Ito Hirobumi was happy, this guy went to prepare, but he didn't expect that the emperor left Yamamoto Gonbei behind.
"Aiqing, can you go and contact the commander-in-chief of the Pacific Rim Federation Army privately?"
"Good! His Majesty the Emperor onboard! β
With just such a sentence, Yamamoto Gonbei immediately understood that this was not to negotiate peace with his opponent, but His Majesty the Emperor was embarrassed.
That. What should I do?
Where does Yamamoto Gonbei take care of that kid now?
But just as the monarch here was remembering, news came from Tokyo Bend that the troops of the Pacific Rim Federation had landed!
"Hurry up! Don't grind! β
"Quick! Fast! Unload everything! β
MacArthur was standing on the pier of Tokyo Bay at this time, looking out in all directions, and you really can't say that there is no possibility of holding this place!
Of course, this is in terms of topography. But now, the Pacific Rim Federation Mixed Expeditionary Force has a lot of combat experience. They will immediately dig trenches here, and then the Pacific Fleet in Tokyo Bay will provide artillery support to the Marines, and it has just been two rounds of fighting, and the people in the vicinity have run out for more than a dozen miles.
MacArthur was going to set up a position here, and this place was good, and the supplies were relatively good. And the troops in the rear will come over one after another.
Now MacArthur can only bring more than 10,000 people, and everyone originally thought that there would be a big battle, so they didn't bring so many people, but now, 50,000 Marines will come over immediately.
"Hurry up and fix the fortifications!" MacArthur is now issuing orders in Chinese, too!
To say. Because of the policy of His Majesty the Emperor, it is true that the people of the Pacific Rim Federation speak two languages, and English must be learned, but Chinese can reflect IQ!
That's right, Chinese is more difficult, and His Majesty the Emperor is of Han nationality, so of course everyone will work hard to learn Chinese, so most of the current army uses Chinese, of course, you don't use English, but IQ is a problem......
MacArthur said that there was absolutely no problem with his IQ, so he worked hard to learn Chinese, don't you really say, this thing is really not easy to learn, but it can be regarded as almost learned.
MacArthur is repairing fortifications and preparing to do a big job, while Ito Hirobumi over there is going to the Cheung Chau Domain, preparing to gather the forces of all Japan and have a general decisive battle on land!
In other words, because of the cult nature of Japan, they can really achieve the ultimate recruitment, that is, 5 million soldiers!
At this time, Japan has a population of 60 million, and 5 million soldiers is really called an extreme, in peacetime Japan actually only has more than 100,000 soldiers, and in terms of this ability to recruit soldiers, many countries can't do it, even if the population is much larger than Japan.
But however, if these 5 million people are really recruited, then Japan will be doomed, because according to the current steel production in Japan, one person may not be satisfied with one gun, and the bullets may not exceed one magazine.
But in Ito's thoughts, 300,000 soldiers should still be fine, right?
It should be said that Hirobumi Ito thinks very well, he really wants to die and live again, but some people don't think so.
On this day, a small boat came from the sea with a large white flag.
"Don't shoot! Don't shoot! I'm here for peace talks! "Yamamoto Gonbei was wearing a suit at this time, and he did not have the majesty of the admirals of the past at all......
If Li Mengyang was allowed to see this scene, he would think of ...... How is it so much like stealing landmines? (To be continued.) )
PS: Thank you!
Well, what the black car said yesterday, in fact, you can see that the United States is conservative, and the more conservative they are, the more the economy will be doomed, and the big companies will not die, and they will not dare to die, so the opportunity for further innovation is much smaller. In fact, the innovation on the American side is still good, really. But, anyway, the future is a comparison or something, and the black car feels like it will follow the old Japanese path, hehehe
