"Your Majesty, if you have to go to Japan, we can't stop it. *Bungaku* However, you must pay attention to safety. The empire is rising at a high speed, and your safety is directly related to the fate of the empire. I will give Lieutenant General Xie Dingkun an order to ensure your safety while you are in Japan! Chief of General Staff Xiong Wu said firmly. If Wang Yuze did not agree, he desperately opposed his inspection of Japan.

"Don't worry, Chief of the General Staff. Without seeing the final victory of the Empire, I would especially cherish my life! Wang Yuze said with a smile. Of course he knew that there were a lot of people who wanted his life right now. In Beijing, or in China, those people don't have a chance. However, once he leaves China, the defense force around Wang Yuze will be greatly reduced, which will give these people an excellent opportunity.

"So, how long will it take for His Majesty to visit Japan this time?" Prime Minister Yang Hua asked.

"Let's go to North Korea first, and then go to Japan. That's about a month. In my absence, the Prime Minister presides over the affairs of the Cabinet. The military is still in charge of the Chief of the General Staff. Now, there is no war breaking out, and everything is still relatively stable, and I will leave for a while, there will be no problem! Wang Yuze said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Yang Hua and Chief of General Staff Xiong Wu both received the order. Both of them are Wang Yuze's father-in-law. Entrusting them with state affairs, of course, there will be no problem. In addition, Wang Yuze's control over the military and the cabinet is also very deep. As long as there are no problems with his security, then there will be no problems with China.

As for Wang Yuze's security, this is also very guaranteed. His travel, safety must be the responsibility of the Praetorian Guards. Palace Guard. All of them were the kind of soldiers who had been through a hundred battles and were infinitely loyal to the emperor. In order to protect Wang Yuze, they will be willing to give their lives, and it is very difficult to break through their protection and hurt Wang Yuze. In addition, agents of the Military Intelligence Agency and the Department of Homeland Security will also be tasked with protection on the periphery. At present, China's military intelligence agency and homeland security department have developed into one of the most powerful espionage organizations in the world, and they have their protection. Wang Yuze's safety is naturally as stable as Mount Tai. In addition, whether it is North Korea or Japan, there are Chinese troops. As soon as a crisis was detected, the garrison was able to arrive in time. In addition, China has many enemies. But there are not many countries that really try to use killers to kill Wang Yuze to achieve victory. After all, everyone still maintains a certain bottom line, otherwise, wouldn't the whole world be chaotic?

"You don't have to give me this time to visit Japan. Tang Shaoyi, Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, can accompany you! Wang Yuze said. There was no major event for him to visit Japan this time, and the communication with the DPRK and the Japanese government and royal family, and the vice minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was enough. Other than that. Wang Yuze also needs to cultivate talents. Prime Minister Yang Hua is already old, and his second term has begun. Wang Yuze needs to think about his successor. The current foreign minister, Ng Dinh Fang, in Wang Yuze's view, is a very good candidate to succeed the prime minister. Once Yang Hua stepped down. He will be the new Prime Minister of the Empire, and the position of Foreign Minister is very important. The selection of foreign minister also requires Wang Yuze to be extra cautious. Tang Shaoyi, the current vice minister of the periphery, is undoubtedly an extremely suitable candidate. This time he visited Japan and North Korea, and taking him with him could also make Wang Yuze understand this person better.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Everybody was commanded.

The emperor's tour, of course, is not so simple. After Wang Yuze revealed that he was going to visit Japan and the DPRK, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs first sent a note to the two countries. Both North Korea and Japan are nervously preparing. The prime minister is a vassal state of China, and the emperor of the suzerainty country is coming, so of course they have to make preparations, and if anything goes wrong, they can't afford to be guilty. As for Japan, it is under China's military occupation, and if Wang Yuze has any dissatisfaction with Japan, then Japan will suffer even more.

Agents of the Military Intelligence Agency also rushed to North Korea and Japan to grasp the local situation, and once a crisis is discovered, they can give early warning and mobilize troops to deal with the crisis first. On the side of the palace guards, they also sent some people over to do a good job of security. It can be said that Wang Yuze's safety has completely become the top priority!

After that, Wang Yuze arranged state affairs, and after his colleagues' harem was also dealt with, he took a special train to Tianjin Dagu Wharf under the protection of the guards. At this time, it was September 25th. The Navy's battle cruiser "White Rise" was already waiting there. The last time I went to Europe, I felt very good on the battlecruiser 'Shiraki'. It's fast, but it's also very protective. At least on the 'White Rise', no one was able to hurt him at sea. Therefore, this time on patrol, the 'Baiqi' battlecruiser is still Wang Yuze's ship.

According to the pre-arranged route, Wang Yuze would arrive in Incheon, North Korea, on the battlecruiser Baiqi from Tianjin, and then stay in Seoul for three to five days, and then take a boat to Tokyo, where he would stay for some time. Then return to China. In total, it will take about a month.

"Lord Tang, what do you think of the current international situation?" On the train from Beijing to Tianjin, Mr. Wang asked. Tang Shaoyi, who is just forty years old, looks a little old. He has been engaged in diplomatic work for a long time, and he has a very good grasp of international affairs.

"Your Majesty, now the whole world has become two opposing sides. The Central and Entente powers were competing on all fronts. It can be seen that soon there will be a war between two opposing blocs, and it will be a large-scale war, which will surpass any previous war! Tang Shaoyi sighed.

"So, what about the Empire? What should the empire do in the future? Wang Yuze asked.

"Your Majesty, although the Reich has not explicitly joined the Central Powers now, the Reich is at peace with Germany, and the Entente has regarded the Reich as a member of the Allied Powers. Therefore, in the future war, the empire will only join the side of the Allies to fight! Tang Shaoyi said.

"Why? Can't the Empire remain neutral and wait until the battle is clear before choosing which side to join? Wang Yuze asked. That's what the United States did in later generations. After the Entente and the Allies were exhausted, the United States suddenly entered the war, which became the last straw that crushed the Allies, and gained huge benefits in the war.

Tang Shaoyi was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect Wang Yuze to propose such a possibility. However, he then shook his head, and then said, "Your Majesty, the Empire is only in the interests of the Empire if it joins the Allied Powers to fight. The empire now has a population of almost 500 million, and the development of the empire requires vast territory, resources and markets. Although the empire is now the largest in the world in terms of territory, except for the South Seas, it is either a wasteland or a desert, which is of little use. Ten years from now, the empire will have a population of 600 million or even 700 million, and His Majesty will have to open up a wider living space for its people. And now, the main colonies are in the hands of Britain and France. If the Reich joined the side of the Entente, even if it defeated the Central Powers led by Germany, the Reich would have little benefit. On the contrary, only by defeating the Entente will the empire be able to get the maximum benefit! ”

Wang Yuze nodded, this was exactly what he thought.

"So, do you think the Empire will be able to achieve the final victory?" Wang Yuze asked.

"Very difficult! Britain and France, both old colonial countries, although the past two years have begun to decline, they still have a strong heritage. Although Russia was weak, its only advantage was its large population and abundant soldiers. As for the United States, it was the most powerful of the Entente powers. A strong industrial base gives the United States a huge war potential. Once war breaks out, the United States will be the Empire's worst enemy! Tang Shaoyi said with great certainty.

"Yes, it was very difficult to get the final victory. However, we are now working hard to achieve victory in the future war. As for the United States, the empire has recognized the strength of the United States, so after the war, the empire will do its best to defeat the United States. The United States has a strong industrial base, but it will take a certain amount of time for the industrial base to be transformed into war power. And the U.S. ** team, whether it is the army or navy, don't want to compare with the empire. And this is exactly the opportunity of the Empire! Wang Yuze's eyes showed a confident glow. The potential of the United States is enormous, but until it really bursts out, it is the only chance to defeat the United States. Wang Yuze has already made up his mind to destroy all the industrial base of the United States after defeating the United States. All the machines were shipped back to China, and not a single screw was left for the United States. And then dismember the United States, dividing the United States into several countries. He did not believe that in this way, the United States would still be able to develop.

Tang Shaoyi's eyes were also full of excitement. Although the road ahead is full of thorns, these people should overcome all the thorns and forge ahead bravely for the future of the empire!

On the afternoon of 25 September, Wang Yuze arrived at the Dagu Wharf and boarded the battlecruiser 'Baiqi'. The battlecruiser "Baiqi", escorted by two "Cheonshui-class" light cruisers, left the dock and disappointed the port of Incheon in Korea!

From Tianjin to the port of Incheon, it is only more than 700 kilometers, and it only takes 20 hours to sail at a speed of 20 knots with the battlecruiser 'Baiqi'. At 10 a.m. on September 26, Wang Yuze arrived at the port of Incheon. The king of Joseon, Li Xi, led the hundred officials of the DPRK to kneel at the pier to welcome Wang Yuze. It's just that Wang Yuze always feels that Li Xi has a green hat on his head!
