In the First Battle of the Yellow Sea, the Japanese Combined Fleet was destroyed, and 21 major warships above the cruiser level were sunk, including six aircraft carriers and a number of seaplane carriers, and Japan's naval aviation forces were swept away. Only the "offensive" fleet led by Vice Admiral Toshitake Kondo survived because it was heavily damaged by the Northern Fleet's carrier-based aircraft group at the beginning of the campaign and returned to the Japanese mainland port ahead of schedule. The Ise and the seriously injured Hyuga were the only two remaining Japanese battleships, and with the addition of several patrols such as the Atago, Japan's main battleships no longer exceeded ten.

For other militarily weaker countries, such a naval force is still a powerful fleet with deterrence and threat, but for the Royal Navy of the Han Dynasty...... Hehe.

Since then, in the Asia-Pacific region, the Japanese navy has ceased to exist as a strategic force.

On October 4, 1940, the Great China Alliance jointly issued a statement that Emperor Zhongyi of the Han Dynasty, Chairman of the Chongqing Committee, Rothschild of the Kingdom of Judah? His Majesty Karrod, Iskandar of the Islamic Kingdom of Morose? His Majesty Sha and the five heads of state of the Sultanate of Sulu and the Sultanate of Macin jointly issued a final decree urging the Emperor of Japan to surrender immediately and unconditionally. Otherwise, "if our military strength, backed by the resolute will of our people, is carried out in its entirety, the Japanese army will be completely destroyed and there will be no escape, and the Japanese mainland will be completely destroyed." "The time has come for Japan to decide whether it will continue to be under the control of its military men, who have made a miscalculation and brought the Japanese Empire to a state of total destruction, or to go to the path of reason."

On October 11, Japan's Emperor Showa convened a meeting of the Imperial Base Camp, and after the fiasco of the combined fleet, Prince Zaihito of the Imperial Palace took the blame and resigned, and the Emperor Ai General Sugiyama Mototo was appointed chief of the General Staff, and Sugiyama Moto, who had said that China would be destroyed in three months, returned to the rivers and lakes, and immediately resolutely responded to the ultimatum of the allies: the Japanese Empire can recruit tens of millions of soldiers who are good at fighting, and a temporary defeat of the navy is nothing, and the opportunity for a decisive battle is far from coming, and millions of imperial troops will always be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor and fight to the death.

The next day, Prime Minister Fumihiro Konoe convened a cabinet meeting, and the cabinet ministers unanimously pledged their allegiance to the emperor and their support for the decision of the military department. What the government should do is to lead the people, always adhere to the established policy, and resolutely advance for the completion of the Greater East Asia War.

Encouraged by both the military and the government, Emperor Hirohito, who had been lying on his laurels since the naval fiasco, finally burst with confidence again, "I met the Han Emperor, and when I drove to the Central Plains, I don't know who killed the deer." ”

This passage comes from the Book of Jin? The first sentence of the original text is "I met the Guangwu ......", which means: I, Shile is a wise emperor, even if I meet Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor of the Han Dynasty, I have to compete with him in the Central Plains, and I have not seen "who killed the deer". The deer here is a metaphor for the regime.

Hirohito's words were on the headlines of the Yomiuri Shimbun to boost the morale of the military and civilians in Japan, and the agents of the Military Intelligence Agency sent the newspaper back to the Weiyang Palace in Chang'an intact. But Hirohito, this old devil is also quite interesting, ha, he actually proclaimed himself Shile, and compared me to Emperor Guangwu, who revitalized the glory of the Han Dynasty! Xue'er, do you think this handsome guy looks like Emperor Guangwu? ”

Director Qin, who was busy signing the documents on the side, pursed his lips and smiled, "Your Majesty is wise and martial, diligent in government and loves the people, an emperor through the ages, how can it be compared to such ordinary people!" ”

"Ha, ha, ha!" His Majesty laughed happily, "Xue'er, you've overdone this sycophant!" I'm not the arrogant bullshit emperor, we have self-knowledge, and I can't stick to any diligence or martial arts, but I think the words love the people and wisdom are more in line with the facts. ”

"Poof!" The cold beauty who couldn't help but smile shyly, and her beautiful face seemed to make the Jinhua Hall much brighter. However, such Tianjiao's next words made His Majesty scratch his head a little, "Of course Your Majesty loves the people, and even the Zhanzi sister in the Hook Yi Palace loves it very much, right?" ”

"Uh......, this Xue'er, you inform Zhang Jiaxuan and Hebar that the general election cannot be postponed any longer, and the documents of the Imperial Bank must be signed by my concubine every day. The huge empire is full of talents, and Xue'er is tired of being born, doesn't it make my heart ache? ”

The Buddha said: The more beautiful a woman is, the greater her jealousy. Qin Yingxue, who is like a fairy, is not exempt from vulgarity. Zhong Yi secretly slandered in his heart: Lao Tzu is for the sake of the whole world and makes a contribution to the improvement of the inferior Japanese people, but no one understands the goodness of this heart. But the Buddha said, "If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell?" Mingbu girl, let me come!

An enlarged meeting of the Central Military Commission during wartime was once again held in the Weiqing Pavilion, and all the commanders and commanders of the various theaters returned to China to attend the meeting, and the small conference room of the Central Military Commission was suddenly packed. His Majesty has not yet come, and it is rare for the bigwigs in the army to have leisure to tear each other down and make fun of each other.

"Commander Long, this time to get rid of the little Japanese navy, your credit is a big drop! Your Majesty will definitely add a star to you. "Rear Admiral Mao Quartz, commander of the Indian Ocean Fleet, is a little surprised, why is the dragon fat man so lucky, and he will be caught in every big battle.

"Fuck off! What do you know? The fat man didn't express much happiness, "If you haven't been a cicada, you'll never know how cicadas feel!" ”

"Cicadas? Then next time you will be this yellow finch! Yu Rongfeng, commander of the Pacific Fleet, also interjected. This is a good analogy, the mantis of the United Fleet catches cicadas, and the yellow finches of the two oceanic fleets are behind.

"Hey, hey!" Navy Commander Zhang Zheng is very calm, no matter which fleet makes meritorious service, it must be regarded as the merit of the navy, right?

Long Zhou pursed his lips, such a big casualty of the Northern Fleet, these heartless people are actually grabbing merit here, and they were about to scold a few words, but there was a cry outside the door, "Your Majesty has arrived!" The generals shut up immediately, crackled their chairs, and stood upright.

His Majesty's face sank as water, and he was very dissatisfied with the bureaucratic style of this so-called royal etiquette: "What are you shouting nonsense, you are coming!" Come in secretly, and listen to what these boys are saying behind their backs. ”

The generals who were standing straight were almost knocked down by His Majesty's words, and the most daring Quanguo Lin said "hehe", "What, Your Majesty, next time you come, you will shoot...... Let them shout! ”

Zhong Yi glared at him fiercely, but this thing didn't care at all, and gave His Majesty a flying eye! This big horn, Zhong Yi shook his head, didn't mess around anymore, walked to the chair, and took the lead in sitting down - if Your Majesty doesn't sit, others won't sit, this is also one of the rules formulated by Chief of General Staff Ye, Zhong Yi is against too many messy rules, but Ye Zhiqiu insisted: Leaving Lou Zhiming, the trick of losing a son, there are no rules, and there is no circle. A strong army requires strict discipline guarantees.

Chief Ye's twisting, Commander Jiang's strictness, Biao's loudspeaker, and Director Mu's black. This is something that the four major military circles of the Han Empire can't afford to provoke, and His Majesty also thinks so, as long as Ye Zhiqiu thinks it's a matter of principle, no one can screw him. had no choice but to implement a series of military regulations in the army.

Of course, the implementation of these systems has made the three armies of the empire more regular, whether it is a bigwig-level figure in charge of one side or an unsung hero in the logistics support system, they must strictly implement the military regulations and act according to the rules, such as driving a helicopter into the palace, it will be completely banned, Jiang Heiyan took the lead in implementing it, who dares to disagree? But in either case, the army's loyalty to the imperial family was ranked first, and Zhong Yi also admitted that the implementation of these military regulations would make the army more centralized and depoliticized, and the concept of loyalty to the empire and the Han emperor was deeply embedded in the details of all military regulations.

This is not Zhong Yi's original intention, although it has been seven or eight years since he traveled to this era, but in Zhong Yi's heart, he is not the first in the world of Emperor Lao Tzu, he still maintains too much of the worldview of the second lieutenant of the armored army in his previous life. This is why he likes to communicate with the Red Guard soldiers, like to chat with the generals in the army, and likes to drink and talk with those who can be called friends.

What happiness can there be for a lonely person, even if the whole world is yours, but you have no lover, no friends, you can only be lonely, the loneliness of the nobles is not the same as the way of suffering of beggars, but there is one thing in common: they are not happy.

This passage was said by His Majesty after a drink, Jiang Yunzhi and Qian Zhihao at the wine table both nodded vigorously, and Hebar even stretched out his thumb, "Your Majesty, high, really high!" ”

Jiang Hei despised the Chancellor of the Exchequer fiercely, "Nima, grab Lao Tzu's lines!" ”

……

"Your Majesty, generals, this decisive battle between our Royal Navy and the Japanese Combined Fleet, destroying 21 Japanese main warships, 64 other small warships, and capturing Japanese ......" Navy Commander Zhang Zheng was allowed to read out the summary report of the Yellow Sea Campaign in Wei Qing Pavilion, this is the first time after Wei Qing Pavilion became the headquarters of the Imperial Army, this is a supreme glory, in the ancient Han Dynasty, Wei Qing smashed the Dragon Court, and Huo Qu's scenery was nothing more than that, right?

But Longzhou just couldn't be happy, in the first battle of Bailing Island, the Northern Fleet was sunk by a battleship, a heavy cruiser, 5 destroyers, 3 frigates, 2 submarines, and 2,432 sailors were killed, including 362 pilots. The aircraft carrier Zijing was declared scrapped, the Gongjin remained in the shipyard for overhaul, and the first aircraft carrier battle group lost a total of 76 aircraft, including 48 Pterodactyl bombers on two aircraft carriers, all of which were shot down or forced to land on the sea.

Thinking about this, Long Zhou was a little uncomfortable, even when His Majesty personally changed the epaulettes of the vice admiral of the Navy for him, even when His Majesty promised that a batch of new warships would soon enter the Northern Fleet, the fat commander did not show a trace of a smile.

Victory belongs to the victims, to Senior Colonel Zhang Dongsheng, the captain of the Zijing, to the Fengxian, who hung the flag of death, and to Lu Ziming.

Therefore, when His Majesty asked Long Zhou what other requirements he had, Commander Long replied without hesitation: "Please allow the Northern Fleet to use the Scarlet Skull Armband!" ”

This request was a bit unexpected, and the generals in the conference room all looked at the fat man in shock, but Zhong Yizheng nodded, "The golden dragon is not noble, and loyalty and courage are righteousness."

Since then, the Northern Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Han Empire has often been known as the loyal and brave and blood-colored skeleton fleet.

In the past two months, the bomber unit of the Air Force organized 12 air raids on Japan's major industrial cities, and nearly 10,000 tons of napalm incendiary bombs were dropped on Kyushu, Shikoku, and Honshu Island. The effect of the bombing was that Japan's industrial capacity was reduced by 60 percent compared with before the war, and the war situation in the Chinese theater deteriorated, and the Northern Group Army commanded by Chen Shukang swept through Qilu and approached Beijing and Tianjin; Wang Yizhe's Southern Group Army had crossed the Yangtze River and regained lost territory, and the Chinese blood that Japan could absorb was getting less and less.

The food and other daily necessities in the country were all in short supply, and although the intransigence of the headquarters and the cabinet was encouraging, it could not fill the stomach, and there were riots among the common people in many places, that is, hungry and anxious rioters smashed shops and looted everything they could eat.

Of course, there will be the shadow of the agents of the Military Intelligence Service, and His Majesty has ordered to use all forces to strike a blow at Japan's confidence in resistance. The decisive battle against Japan is coming!
