Chapter 849: Britain and Japan

Just when the British government finally decided to give in and expressed its willingness to assist Huaxia and the United States in investigating this matter, the British government's top brass also began to consider who dared to do something to Huaxia and the United States at the same time, and could also put this pot on the head of the British Empire! At first, the British set their sights on the Germans. It is believed that Germany is the most motivated to act in this way. But soon, the Royal Navy said it was absolutely impossible! Since 1910, the British have not even given steam turbines to Germany, let alone torpedoes! Even if the Germans wanted to plant a torpedo, they couldn't find it. Judging from the current situation, Britain has fired five torpedoes from submarines of unknown nationality that launched two attacks, and even if they buy them from a third country from Germany, it is impossible, because the British are still very strict about the resale of arms sales, and this kind of large-scale reselling to a potential empire is impossible. This statement will definitely not be recognized by Huaxia and the US government!

Now Huaxia and the U.S. government have made sanctions decisions at the same time. The United States first ceased all trade with Great Britain and halved supplies to the rest of the Entente countries. The Huaxia Republic did not do anything to the British, but decisively cut off arms exports to Russia, which frightened the Russians. And the two countries said that they would prohibit their own ships from transporting goods for the Entente, and this meant that German submarines could safely hunt all ships transported for the Entente in the sea without worrying about accidental damage! If the battle on the battlefield caused the two sides to lose blood quickly, then the actions of China and the United States destroyed most of the hematopoietic function of the Entente! So. Not only did the British take it anymore, but France and Russia also said that they must end this matter as soon as possible! Especially the Russians, after Denikin's army fought a beautiful Jedi counterattack. The Russian army became interested in Chinese weapons. And now the Russian Army, which is in defeat, seems to have found a light in the dark night!

Huaxia and the United States are continuing to search for those submarines that are moving knives behind their backs, but the effect is not very obvious, on the one hand, the sea area is too large, and the amount of forces that can be mobilized in a short period of time is limited, and it is indeed difficult to fight against potential 1. On the other hand, it was the disgrace of the British Empire that made the two great powers very satisfied, and they felt that it was necessary to continue to ferment this thing for a while. Let the British know the power of China and the United States! In order to obtain greater benefits at the negotiating table in the next step. The third point is that the United States and China and even Britain need to find a suitable scapegoat!

Although China is inclined to the allies, after all, now that China occupies half of Southeast Asia, it is already in conflict with Britain and France. Only when Britain and France can't get up, can they be considered really safe, but at the same time, they can't let Germany completely control Russia. Otherwise, the northern frontier will be unstable again. Xu Jie's goal is to have a tie between the two sides, and then fight again decades later! Help the Allies because when the United States joins, the Allies are at a disadvantage, and China needs to balance the strength of both sides.

America? Although it has been decided to side with the Entente at the right time. But in order to obtain greater benefits after the war, and to be able to beat Britain, which thinks it is the best in the world, the Americans are happy to maintain this situation, at least for a while, if it is really certain that the British are the devil. The United States does not mind making the colonies of the British a little smaller! Anyway, now Britain has territory, doesn't it?

It must be said that the efficiency of the British is very high. They soon began a series of investigations on the suspects. It's just that, unlike the general police investigation, the British don't pay much attention to evidence, but choose to use that as a scapegoat! That is, this scapegoat is fatter and can be slaughtered for meat, and at the same time, this scapegoat must be acceptable to both big countries! Both in terms of reason and in terms of interests! And soon, the British found a suitable country, and this country was called Japan!

Japan is simply the best scapegoat! First of all, Huaxia wanted to further weaken, so that it would fundamentally cut off Japan's ability to rejuvenate, and if it were not for the British who had been protecting it, I am afraid that Huaxia would have succeeded. Secondly, Japan also had motives, and the British quickly figured out the reason why Japan did this, provoking a war between the two great powers, and they could profit from it. The third is that this scapegoat named Japan is fat! Of course, this is not to say how good Japan's economic and social development is, but to say that it can really squeeze oil and water! The patience of the Japanese is still very fierce, if other countries can use 3 percent of the money to do something, Japan can squeeze out 5 percent of the patience! This can be seen from the First Sino-Japanese War of that year, Japan almost with its own strength to organize a huge fleet and an army, if it were not for the British to help China, and the Russians to stab in the back, plus the restrictions of being an island country, Japan would have really won!

The target has been chosen, and the rest is even looking for evidence! As long as it is confirmed, the crisis of Britain and even the entire Entente will be completely resolved! As for being a chess piece in front of Huaxia? Well, it seems that it is obviously impossible to contain a lion with a rabbit, but now it seems that it can be used as a gift to appease the lion's anger, and of course the British can also provide a processing service, and it will be roasted and delivered to the two great powers! At a critical moment, the British had already decided to throw Japan away like a rag!

At this time, it seems that the whole of Japan does not know anything about the future, and the small people of Shengdou continue to work hard for their daily livelihoods. Merchants are still busy trying to earn an extra yen. However, the Japanese high-level is now a little abnormal, they are carefully observing every move between China and the United States, Kataoka Shichiro handed over the entire plan to the cabinet and the empress, the entire Japanese high-level was shocked, they really couldn't imagine that a small lieutenant general would dare to do such a thing! What's even more terrifying is that it is so resolute and so intense! Once the operation began, it could not be stopped, all the submarines ruined the radio! And even if there is, it is definitely out of the range of communication!

Now the Japanese top brass is very confused, they don't know what happened to the ground, from the report, there is a US Navy transport ship that was indeed sunk, and then another Chinese transport ship was sunk, the former is the report, and the latter is because the Japanese in Semarang saw this scene. The situation in the two countries now seems very strange to the Japanese. Or rather, it was very disappointed that the Japanese Navy submarine attack was very successful. But why didn't China and the United States fight according to the Japanese script? What about going to war? What about a big fight? It's good to wait until the two giants fight half to death, and the Japanese fisherman profits?

In fact, the Japanese did not know what to do, and a relatively fierce confrontation broke out between the Chinese and US navies. In a short period of time, the Dragon Warrior taught the cowboys of New Mexico what it means to be strong, and at the same time extinguished the American dream of entering Southeast Asia. Of course, it is more important that the Americans have found something that is enough to change the world! This British torpedo turned Huaxia and the United States into temporary allies in less than an hour, and their losses had to be found in someone else!

At this time, the vast majority of Japan's top brass did not realize that the crisis was gradually approaching, after all, it was the time for the three major powers of China, the United States and the United Kingdom to fight a war of words, and they didn't seem to mention anything about Japan, so it means that Japan is still safe now, and the top management is quite confident that these carefully selected Yamato warriors will never fall into the hands of the other party! Whether it's explosives to detonate a submarine, or poison that can kill in a few seconds, there are several copies! The evidence is almost impossible to think about.

But there was one person who smelled a hint of danger from a rather strange situation, and this person was Xiyuan Temple Gongwang! One of the last political elites left over from the First Sino-Japanese Era already felt bad when he heard about Shichiro Kataoka's plan, because he thought it was too naïve! Did two great powers break out into a full-scale war because a ship was sunk? Isn't that too naïve? If this were the case, when the Japanese navy attacked the Takasheng in the Battle of Toshima, the British would have jumped out and knocked Japan to the ground, and the two great powers had a fight, but at most they fought but did not break! And what if you sink even one American battleship? Will the United States fight with the other side regardless of the overall situation and the unfavorable situation? It's impossible!

Although Britain is currently the target of public criticism, Saionji Gongwang believes that Britain can finally get out of this incident. It is not that the British can subdue China and the United States while fighting the Germans, but because the latter just wants to gain some benefits, as well as face-saving things. The United States is an ally of the British, and China has no reason to break with Britain completely! And in order to give an explanation to the people in the country, scapegoating is a must! And the scapegoat is to be found in small countries, and with the consent of the two big ones!

On more than one occasion, the Saionji Gongwang expressed his concern about the future in secret meetings, but the Admiralty patted his chest and said that it would be fine. Those "Yamato samurai" will not fall into the hands of the other party, and even if they are discovered, the government can push them into the hands of a small group of people and find a few scapegoats. It won't have anything to do with the Japanese government.

"Stupid guys, this evidence is what convinces the two big countries, as long as China and the United States believe it, even if the evidence is all fabricated? What the two great powers need is interests, not what you think is the perfect pretext! Xiyuan Temple Gongwang said bitterly.
