"Sir, the latest news we have received is that the Japanese government has once again borrowed 120 million pounds from Britain, France and the United States with the fiscal revenue of the next 30 years as collateral, and in addition to the previous loan of 100 million pounds, the Japanese government has already borrowed a total of 220 million pounds. The domain name is the full spelling, please remember the domain name of this site! Now the Japanese minister to China, Taro Kawaguchi, has officially put forward a request for all war reparations and the ransom of the captured soldiers to be paid in full at one time. At the same time, the Japanese emperor personally contributed 1,000 pounds, Japan's major chaebols contributed 10 million pounds, and the people of the country enthusiastically donated money and materials, ordering a large amount of shipbuilding equipment and heavy industry equipment from Britain, France, and the United States. At the same time, the Japanese Admiralty placed additional orders for two battleships and two armored cruisers from Great Britain, two battleships and two armored cruisers from the United States, and two orders for two armored cruisers and ten mine-striking ships from France. Add to this the two battleships that Japan ordered from Britain before the start of the war, and in three years they will form a huge fleet with six battleships, six armored cruisers! Wei Zhiyong, director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, said. This is an agreement just reached between the Japanese government and Britain, France, and the United States, which has not yet been officially announced, but it has already been discovered by people from the Military Intelligence Agency.

"Humph! In the next 30 years, little Japan will really go crazy. Not only is Little Japan crazy, but those foreign devils are also crazy, aren't they afraid that Little Japan will lose all their belongings again? Wang Yuze's face was a little gloomy and said. Japan has recklessly expanded its military strength, and has put its hopes on the Second Sino-Japanese War a few years later. Now that the Japanese economy is already in a situation of imminent collapse, the Japanese government is still vigorously developing armaments, and it is obvious that it wants to win the final victory by defeating China and solve all these crises at once.

"In addition, Japanese Prime Minister Hirobumi Ito has submitted his resignation to the Emperor of Japan yesterday, and it is reported that Masayoshi Matsukata will take the stage for the second time to form a cabinet!" Wei Zhiyong continued. Obviously, this defeat, Ito Hirobumi has become a scapegoat.

"It's Matsukata justice again! I'm really ready to take a gamble when I come to Little Japan. Wang Yuze said coldly. Masayoshi Matsukata came to power as early as 9 years ago, but he stepped down after only one year in power. This time, Japan once again used him to form a cabinet, which is probably to break the kettle and gamble all of Japan's national fortunes. One of the nine elders of Masayoshi Matsukata Meiji, he was born as a samurai and had certificates in archery "Meguro-ryu" and kendo "shōken-ryu", and was proficient in equestrianism. He was very radical and openly shouted that if Japan wants to rise, it must defeat China and get the nutrients that Japan needs to rise from China.

"Who are the specific cabinet members?" Wang Yuze asked.

"The members of the cabinet have been decided, and they have not yet been announced, but we have confirmed them, and they are roughly as follows: the prime minister is Masayoshi Matsukata, and he is also the minister of Tibet. The Minister of Foreign Affairs is Saionji Konozo, the Minister of the Interior is Itahiro Resuke, the Minister of Land is Takashima Tonosuke and concurrently serves as the Minister of Takusho, the Minister of the Sea is Yamamoto Gonbei, the Minister of Justice Yoshikawa Hidemasa, the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Culture and Sports, the Minister of Agriculture and Commerce, the Minister of Agriculture and Commerce, the Minister of Agriculture, Commerce, Enomoto Takehiro, the Minister of the Ministry of Delivery, Shirane Shirane, and the train Kuroda Kiyotaka. Wei Zhiyong introduced.

"What do you have?" After listening to Wei Zhiyong's news, Wang Yuze asked.

"It's really crazy to come to little Japan, and most of these cabinet members are hawks. We have to prepare for a life-and-death battle with Japan in a few years! Xiong Wu said. Japan's frenzied military expansion made him feel very stressed. Japan is betting on its national fortunes, but why is this not the case for China? If Japan loses again, the whole of Japan will surely perish. If China loses the war, I'm afraid it won't be much better. Therefore, in the future war, China will also have no way out.

"Rest assured, the army is confident that it will defeat the Japanese army." Cai Yun immediately assured. In the last war, although the Japanese Army showed strong combat effectiveness, in general, the Chinese Army was not bad.

"The Japanese Army suffered a loss of equipment last time, and in the next war, they will definitely not be able to make mistakes in this regard again. The army must be trained so that when it comes to future wars, there must be no mistakes! Wang Yuze demanded sternly.

"Yes, Dashuai!" Cai Yun hurriedly said.

"Marshal, the strength of the navy needs to be strengthened. Once all the warships ordered by Japan returned home, they would become a huge fleet with six battleships and six armored cruisers, which would be enough to pose a threat to the Chinese Navy. The capital ship of our own design must be put into service in time, otherwise it will be at a disadvantage! Zhang Cheng said. Although he was sure that the Chinese Navy would still have a certain advantage over the Japanese Navy before it regained its strength, the advantage would certainly not be great at that time. Moreover, Wang Yuze has already set a development plan for the next three years, and if China wants to swallow the Philippines and Hawaii, it will inevitably make China have two more enemies, Spain and the United States. Spain doesn't need to pay attention, but it is very difficult to say whether the United States will take the opportunity to attack China at that time.

"A new-class warship, try your best to start construction as soon as possible! If we strive to enter service before the ships ordered by Japan return home, we may not have a chance to win. Wang Yuze said. The capital ships designed and built by the Chinese Navy must form combat effectiveness in advance. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for China to win this war.

"Yes, Dashuai!" Zhang Cheng said. He had already made up his mind that after the design of the battleship was finalized, he would immediately work overtime to start work, and he must form combat effectiveness before the battleships of the Japanese Navy returned home.

"Alright, let's go back and prepare! Be vigilant, but don't worry too much. The Japanese Navy and Army were devastated in this war, and they wanted to rebuild without a few years. Even if their warships return home, it will take some time to run in. We have plenty of time to deal with them! Wang Yuze said.

"Yes, Dashuai!" Everyone replied that even though Wang Yuze enlightened them, everyone still felt heavy in their hearts. Everyone feels that the responsibility on their shoulders is very heavy, and if the war is defeated, I am afraid that China will not only have its rise to be interrupted, but will also fall into a place of no return. This time, China has issued 200 million pounds of war reparations to Japan, and if it loses the war next time, then little Japan will not have to pay a billion or more war reparations! Therefore, in any case, China cannot afford to lose.

After learning of the Japanese threat, the Chinese side once again began to prepare for war intensely. The army and navy have begun intense training, and at the same time, the Navy Department is also speeding up the final progress of the warship design, preparing to start construction of a new generation of warships as soon as possible.

On July, Japan's new cabinet officially took office, and Masayoshi Matsukata formed a cabinet for the second time. Subsequently, the Japanese cabinet issued a series of plans to revitalize Japan's economy and armaments, which caused an uproar in the world. All the countries of the world have once again turned their attention to the Far East. This time Japan lost the war, and Japan is now rearmament on a large scale, and the target can be imagined.

That evening, Japan's Meiji Emperor summoned the entire staff of the new cabinet for the first time, and the intention was also very obvious, that is, to cheer up the new cabinet and prepare them for the decisive battle between Japan and China in a few years. We must strive for victory for Japan, you know, Japan is already like a gambler who has lost everything, and has already put all its life on the line. If it fails, the consequences can be imagined. Emperor Meiji naturally didn't want to be the king of a dead country.

In the Nagawa Hall of the Imperial Palace of Japan, Emperor Meiji sat at the top with a blank face, his eagle-like eyes scanning the cabinet members, as if he wanted to determine whether this time the choice was the right one. The main hall of the Imperial Palace, which was destroyed during the bombardment of Tokyo by the Chinese Navy, is now being rebuilt. As a result, the place where Emperor Meiji summoned his ministers had to be changed to Chowaden.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you are all the elites of the Great Japanese Empire, and it is up to you whether the Great Japanese Empire can defeat Shina and successfully rise in the Land of the Rising Sun. In the last war, we had already lost everything, and the Japanese Empire could no longer afford to lose the second time. Therefore, in the next war, we must win! Emperor Meiji snapped. Japan has now lost all of its money and is paying off its debts. If China can be defeated and a large amount of war reparations can be obtained from China, then it is good to say that all debts can be quickly paid off and rapid development can be achieved. If it fails, then Japan will never have a chance.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the ministers will definitely live up to their mission!" The members of Matsukata's cabinet knelt on the ground and replied loudly.

"The army and navy must be fully prepared, whether the empire can expand its territory and win victory is up to you!" Emperor Meiji's gaze fell on Rikusho Takashima Tonosuke and Umi Yamamoto Gonbei.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the ministers will be deadly!" Takashima Tonosuke and Yamamoto Gonbei both replied. It's just that neither of them is sure if they will win. After all, in terms of scale and combat power, China has far surpassed Japan. It is very difficult to narrow the gap in a short period of time, or even surpass China. Therefore, they can only try their best to bet on this last hand. Moreover, as far as the character of the Japanese is concerned, as long as they can have a three-tier chance of winning, they will dare to go to war. At the beginning, when the Japanese Combined Fleet faced the Beiyang Naval Division, it only had a 30% chance of winning. As a result, they did not hesitate to bet on this one, and in the end, they won the game!
