At the same time that the Foreign Legion began to withdraw from Europe, the troops gathered in Europe because of the world war also began to return to their places of origin.

Americans, Australians, New Zealanders, Canadians, Indians, and so on, all began to gradually withdraw their troops.

Of course, it also includes the 6th Division of the Japanese Army.

The 6th Division is still an integrated division.

In the battle a few months earlier, the 6th Division suffered heavy casualties due to the arrogance of the commander of the 6th Division, Genjiro Akashi.

Compared with the European countries, whose war potential has been drained, Japan's war potential is still sufficient.

As a result, the shortage of soldiers in the 6th Division was quickly filled, and the scale was larger than before.

In World War I, many new weapons were used on the battlefield for the first time, including poison gas, airplanes, tanks, etc., because of the emergence of these new weapons, the war was completely different from the past, and the Japanese could certainly feel it.

Japan is indeed a nation that is very good at learning, and in order to learn more quickly the advanced combat methods and concepts of Europe, a large part of the supplementary personnel sent by Japan to the Sixth Division are officers and senior noncommissioned officers, and they want to take advantage of the opportunity of the world war to fully learn more and more advanced knowledge.

Of course, after these soldiers arrived in Europe, Akashi Genjiro used the excuse that he had not yet completed the run-in and did not participate in even any of the small-scale wars, they were just watching and learning, and they refused to devote themselves to it again.

This has also caused a lot of bad effects, such as the Japanese now leave the impression of greed, cowardice, and extreme lust on the British.

It seems that the Japanese left the Foreign Legion because they were lustful.

Because of the existence of the "Anglo-Japanese Alliance", the British shielded the Japanese and at the same time accepted the Japanese.

However, the Japanese did not show the fierceness of the Russo-Japanese War and continued to move forward, but always shirked for various reasons and refused to set foot on the battlefield until the end of the world war.

Of course, after the end of the World War, the Japanese also regarded themselves as victors, and while they enjoyed all kinds of treatment beyond the norm, their lust in their bones began to stir again.

Just the other day, three Japanese soldiers broke into the home of a Belgian family, robbed the family of belongings, and raped the hostess and her minor child.

Don't even let the kids go!

What a bunch of brutes!

In Britain and Belgium, demonstrations against the Japanese began immediately.

The Belgians demanded that the Japanese be expelled from Belgium and that the perpetrators be punished.

The British, for their part, demanded the dissolution of the "Anglo-Japanese alliance" and the expulsion of the Japanese from Europe.

Conservative Britons could never understand why Britain would ally with such a despicable and shameless country, because that would affect Britain's reputation.

As for the national interest, no one pays attention to this issue.

The British only noticed that the Japanese had made mistakes, so they demanded that the British government must make changes to deal with these mistakes, and there were other deeper problems, which they did not consider, and that was the responsibility of the government, not the responsibility of ordinary Britons.

This is the evil fruit of democracy, and it is also the result of the British being too indulgent to the Japanese.

Lloyd George agreed to consider dissolving the Anglo-Japanese alliance, but at the same time, Lloyd George wanted to return all the Japanese safely to the Far East.

The Japanese do not seem to appreciate it, they return to their country on a cruise ship from their own country, and are not prepared to trouble the British.

The Japanese did have reason to be dissatisfied, believing that they also made significant sacrifices in the world war, but at the same time did not achieve enough benefits, as can be seen in their equipment.

The Japanese returned to the Far East on only five Japanese-flagged cruise ships, and there were no accompanying freighters.

That means that the Japanese don't have too many heavy weapons to transport, and they don't even have a small number of artillery.

Look at the Foreign Legion, when they withdrew to Lanfang, if there was a cruise ship to transport soldiers, then there was almost another freighter to transport equipment, and there were not only artillery and tanks on board, but also enough bullets, shells, fuel, spare parts, and enough food for them to use for months, which was a world of difference.

Even more dissatisfying to the Japanese is yet to come.

Just as the convoy transporting the Japanese was traveling in the Mediterranean, it was suddenly attacked by a submarine of unknown nationality, sinking all five Japanese freighters and killing about 16,000 soldiers.

The world war is over, where did the submarine of unknown nationality come from?

This has simply pained the Japanese Government to the bone, because just before the accident, the Sixth Division had concentrated almost all the essence of the Japanese Army, and the proportion of officers in this unit was surprisingly high.

It is precisely because of this that Akashi Genjiro was reluctant to send the men of the 6th Division to the battlefield, because the loss of even any "soldier" was worth five trees to the Japanese Army.

But here's the bizarre thing, the original Akashi Genjiro fantasized about using a big victory to make a name for the Japanese army, but he lost his troops and lost his troops. Later, Akashi Motojiro had fully realized the cruelty of the European war, so he was cautious, preferring to leave infamy rather than take risks, but he didn't expect that the result was indeed annihilated.

Immediately after the accident of the Japanese fleet, the British declared that all the German submarines were in the military port and there was no sign of sortie, so the attack had nothing to do with the Germans.

Then the French fleet and the Italian fleet remained, and these two countries immediately declared that all our submarines were also in the port and were not dispatched, so it had nothing to do with us.

So all eyes were on the Corsica fleet.

The statement of the Corsica fleet is even more crisp, we simply do not have submarines.

It looks like it's a headless case.

On the second day of the incident, many news outlets reported on the incident, most of them expressing regret and condemnation of the murderer, and only a few were gloating.

Lan Fang's "Daily News" is the one who gloated the most.

In the Mainichi Shimbun report, this incident became synonymous with "bureaucracy", because the Japanese, because of their strange ethereal pride, refused the help of the British government and organized a retreat on their own, which led to the disaster.

At the same time, in the report of the "Daily News", this shipwreck incident is linked to the "tragedy" that happened at the Tianjin wharf a while ago, because the Foreign Legion has never given up the investigation of the driving force behind the Tianjin wharf incident.

This is very intriguing, just as the investigation of the Foreign Legion is gradually unfolding, it is difficult not to make people associate the two with such a tragedy in the Sixth Division.

But what about the connection?

There is no evidence that it was the Foreign Legion that attacked the Japanese convoy.

Not to mention that the Foreign Legion does not have submarines, even if the Foreign Legion has submarines, they only need to issue a statement and bite our fleet in one bite is in the port, what can the Japanese do?

Go straight to the logbook inside the submarine?

Don't be funny, the Foreign Legion simply doesn't bother with such a request from them.

No sovereign state in the world would heed such a request.

As a result, the subsequent development of this matter is very strange, and the Japanese vow to retaliate and must make some people pay.

And the threat of the Foreign Legion has never stopped, as long as they are behind the "Tianjin Wharf Incident", the Foreign Legion will definitely make them pay the price.

In just this month, nearly 100 people have died in various accidents in the Republic of China, including hanging, electric shock, car accidents, accidental fighting deaths, improper food, and various heart diseases, high blood pressure, and so on.

These people all have one thing in common, they have all participated in the "national carnival" that smeared the Foreign Legion.

But at the same time, the deaths of these people did not stir up any waves, because the domestic media was silent about the matter, and they did not dare to make any noise.

Any voice that is unfavorable to the Foreign Legion.

When the Foreign Legion is its own people, they are the protectors of their interests and the retainers of their rights.

But when the Foreign Legion becomes an enemy, they are ruthless executioners, decisive avengers, and unscrupulous "foreigners".

It was only at this time that some people regretted it, and voices of grievances for the Foreign Legion began to appear in the media of the Republic of China.

But so what?

Some injuries don't come with a "sorry" answer.

Some mistakes are not forgivable with a bow.

Some people will forgive because they are inherently powerless to fight.

Some people don't forgive, because they don't need worship, they don't need charity, they are self-reliant, they don't ask for mercy, they don't ask for mercy.

Maybe a lot of people have to say: you can't just because your mother beat you up, and then you don't want your mother.

This is actually a fallacy, of course, people can't do without their mothers, but there is no need to nest with their brothers who are not angry for the sake of their mothers, and they can take their mothers out and start a new stove.

So things gradually evolved into a confrontation between Japan and Lanfang.

Don't think that this kind of scolding won't happen, in fact, it is staged every day in real society, but they don't scold their mothers directly, and they use another more tactful way to understand.

In mid-February, an update broke out out of the blue.

The area where the incident occurred was actually a public waterway, on an extremely busy shipping lane, and a Corsican destroyer was nearby at the time of the incident, but the destroyer did not rescue the people who fell into the water.

This immediately became an excuse for the Japanese to lash out at Corsica for not observing the basic principles of maritime navigation, without the slightest sympathy, without the slightest humanitarianism.

The Corsican response was even more bizarre: given the consistent behavior of the Japanese side, we were afraid for the safety of the ladies on board, so we could not carry out the rescue.

It's ridiculous, this is a warship, where is the woman?

Corsica immediately responded that we in Corsica attach great importance to women's rights, and there are indeed women serving on the ship.

…… Even if there is, this is a quibble.

But the Japanese are helpless, because everyone knows the relationship between Qin Zhiyuan, Lan Fang, and Corsica, and it is also self-inflicted humiliation to be entangled on this issue.

So things seem to be gradually becoming clear, even if the attack on the Japanese fleet is not related to Qin Zhiyuan, then Qin Zhiyuan will definitely not be able to get rid of it.

Qin Zhiyuan did not deny it, because in the eyes of everyone, even if the "Tianjin Wharf Incident" was not pushed by the Japanese from behind, then it must be inseparable from the Japanese.
