Chapter 842: The Defeated Japanese Navy

In the first battle of Tsushima Island, Huang Shanhu, the captain of the guard brigade of the independent division, with one part of his own army and the Chutian division of the ninth special operations detachment, completely annihilated more than 1,400 Japanese troops on the island, and he did not suffer any casualties, which can be said to be a complete victory, but the mountain tiger was not happy, such a battle, for the mountain tiger who was eager to fight and kill on the battlefield, it was definitely a kind of tediousness, and he couldn't mention the feeling of jīng god.}

It can be seen that the soldiers worship the strong, and the combat effectiveness and combat will of the Chinese people impressed these Soviet sailors, who thought that they could not do this under that circumstance at that time, especially the strong strength of the Chinese Air Force, which made these prisoners of war who changed hands extremely surprised, and had some expectations and hopes for that distant and unfamiliar place.

Qiuquan's trust and respect for the Soviet officers are imprinted in their hearts, and Colonel Margotlovsky is even more dedicated to performing his duties, Qiuquan is constantly observing and learning on the warship every day, and in front of him, a new world is opened, and this world firmly attracts him, and the life is leisurely and fulfilling, only he knows that from the moment he entered Haishanwei, he paid for it.

For more than 20 days and nights, he tried his best to think about it, for the sake of this moment, the taste of it, only Qiu Quan himself knew in his heart, and sometimes he was thinking that this younger brother of his was so accurate every time, and the situation in the Far East was in his expectation, he was really a mysterious person.

Qiuquan pondered Tang Qiuli on the Yellow Sea, but Tang Qiuli at the Qingdao base was looking forward to seeing the shadow of the fleet as soon as possible every day, and in order to welcome the arrival of these warships, the Qingdao base was undergoing intense expansion, and Tang Qiuli took out all the knowledge about the navy in his mind and put it to use.

Personally supervising the progress of the project every day, this fleet, containing all his hopes, in his self-deprecating words, "is like looking forward to a lover in the distance," Mei Ting and Mei Xue, who were far away, sent him several letters one after another, and the letters were full of thoughts and concerns.

Tang Qiuli's reply was a big talk about the fleet, which made the Mei sisters angry, Mei Xue was even more going to come to Qingdao, Tang Qiuli really missed his wife alone, so he agreed, and there was another expectation in his heart, perhaps, the fleet would arrive on the same day as Mei Xue, he secretly thought.

This early winter was a harvest season for Tang Qiuli, but for the Japanese, it was a mixed blessing, the Japanese navy's land-based aviation was completely lost, the Minister of the Navy, Mitsumasa Yonechi, once again lost face in front of the army, Emperor Hirohito repeatedly made no achievements in the navy, but repeatedly lost his troops, and this time, he lost the Soviet Pacific Fleet in his hands again, and he was furious.

Hirohito is angry and distressed, and the navy is too angry, he has always been secretly biased in favor of the navy, but these wine bags and rice bags have slapped themselves in the face again and again, and more than a hundred warships have been left by the devil Tang Qiuli in this way, and Hia went out of the Sea of Japan unscathed.

In Hirohito's mind, the Sea of Japan is a swimming pool in his backyard, and Tang Qiuli can walk more than a hundred warships from Haishan Wei Nòng, what else can he not do in the future? Therefore, Hirohito moved the idea of a major change of navy, and with an order, Mitsumasa Yonechi rushed back to Tokyo in a gloomy manner.

Hirohito met Mitsumasa Yonechi with a disgraced face in the palace, and Hirohito, who was originally a donkey, neither became angry nor scolded him, but just stared at him for a long time with yīn's cold eyes, staring at Mitsumasa Yonechi sweating, his stomach trembling, the muscles on his face were stiff, and his heart was beating violently uncontrollably.

If the Emperor scolded him, or if the imperial hand rewarded him with a few slaps, Mitsumasa's heart would be much more comfortable, but His Majesty the Emperor, who often had black lines on his face, stared at him with this kind of gaze like looking at a bunch of stinky shit, but it made Mitsumasa's heart sink all the time, and his confidence was taken away from his body little by little by Hirohito's gaze.

"Hey" Emperor Hirohito suddenly sighed faintly, this light sigh made Yonechi Mitsumasa's heart ignite a glimmer of hope, because from this sigh, he heard that His Majesty the Emperor Xià too many complicated feelings, not completely give up and dissatisfied, there should also be regret and hatred of iron does not become steel.

"Your Majesty" Mitsumasa Yonechi plucked up his courage and just shouted, "Stop" Hirohito shouted violently, interrupting him rudely, Mitsumasa Yonechi had just a little hot heart, and fell very deeply, instantly becoming cold, until it was cold to the bones, he couldn't help but shiver, and a deep despair hit his heart.

"It's time for you to rest, immediately cut all your work to the base camp Jiāo, go home and think about it, thinking that for the sake of your loyalty to me in the past, I am not ready to punish you, the navy is really disappointing to me, it is no longer able to bear the heavy responsibility of the Japanese Empire, compared to the army's record, the navy is really a shame, you can retire" Hirohito said quietly.

Hirohito's voice, low and ethereal, seemed to come from a distant place, and in the ears of Mitsumasa Yonechi, it was like thunder, shaking him all over, and his soul seemed to have left his mind, and he was abandoned like this? Like a pile of garbage, how much has I done in half my life for the sake of the Great Japanese Empire and for His Majesty the Emperor?

His life's work has been devoted to the development of Greater East Asia by His Majesty the Emperor, the navy, bent on building the most glorious navy of the Japanese Empire, this dream has been shattered, grievances, dissatisfaction, despair, unwillingness, extremely complicated feelings, so that Mitsumasa Yonechi almost exploded, he asked for xìng out, put the full belly, all the words out, looked up, saw Hirohito's gaze.

Yīn was cold, vicious, and full of disdain, and the courage he mustered up, like the flame of a candle, was extinguished in an instant when it encountered a strong wind, and he staggered away from the palace like a defeated prince, he knew the consequences of his desperate gamble, that is, it was impossible to get out of the palace alive today, and in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor, he was already a useless person, useless than garbage.

Mitsumasa Yonechi was dismissed, ordered to shut up and think about it, Hirohito carried out a major change of blood in the navy, almost all the senior generals of the Admiralty were replaced, Mitsutaro Hashimoto took over the post of Minister of the Navy, and the newly promoted generals were all people who had been suppressed by Mitsumasa Yonechi for a long time and were outside the core decision-making circle of the Japanese Navy.

These generals, within the Japanese Navy, are completely young Zhuang, more aggressive, more fanatical, and the war of aggression against Japan is a lifelong creed and purpose, and the later commander of the Japanese Combined Fleet, the three Ben Wu ** generals, stood out at this time and entered the decision-making level of the Japanese Navy.

Emperor Hirohito's original intention was to use these generals of the young Zhuang faction to redeem the decline of the navy, he didn't want the army to be unique and become difficult to control, and he didn't want to beat the navy to death with a stick, and he would never be able to turn over.

In the later Southeast Asian War, for Emperor Hirohito and the Japanese Empire, he swept through Southeast Asia and dominated the South Pacific.

It's just that Hirohito didn't expect that what he released was a group of war maniacs, and in Southeast Asia, it was obviously impossible to satisfy the appetite of these young admirals, who stared at the blood-red eyes, looking for opponents in the vast Pacific Ocean, and finally, found the fat and strong Americans.

What's more, there is also Tang Qiuli's cunzài, even if the Japanese do not fight the Americans, he will provoke a war between the United States and Japan, just like the Far Eastern War between the Soviets and the Japanese with one hand, this is only part of Tang Qiuli's overall plan, the Kwantung Army has the upper hand in the Far East, and Tang Qiuli's goal has basically been achieved.
