Perhaps it was because the empire was able to win every foreign war, and after that victory gained a lot of benefits. Therefore, the vast majority of the people of the empire are not averse to war. Even if, war is deadly.

Especially those young people who have grown up with the rise of the empire are full of confidence in the empire. In particular, the target of this conquest is still an old enemy like Japan. Under the propaganda of the imperial government for many years, almost all the people of the empire knew that Japan was the old enemy of the empire. There can be no peaceful coexistence between the empire and Japan. If the empire wants to become a world hegemon, it must first defeat Japan. In this way, the empire will not be stabbed in the back by the Japanese when it is competing for world hegemony with European and American powers.

As early as last year, when the Imperial Navy defeated the British Navy, there were even young people clamoring for the hope that the Imperial would take the opportunity to start a war and defeat Japan, the old enemy. It's just that the living empire is not ready. So the public opinion was not listened to. Now that the Empire has completed its preparations to wage war against Japan, this naturally makes the Empire's hot-blooded youth ecstatic.

All the major cities of the empire held huge demonstrations in support of the empire's war against Japan and the complete eradication of this old enemy.

There were long queues at the various recruitment points set up by the empire. However, it is a pity that the empire is only preparing to form five more army groups this time, so that the total strength of the imperial army will be increased to twenty army groups and one janissaries, with a total of about 3.2 million people. Although, such a standing army strength can already be regarded as the first in the world. But. Compared to the empire's vast territory and population, this army was nothing in comparison. Although the empire is very powerful, there are still many enemies, so it is necessary for the empire to maintain a strong force. Only in this way can the interests of the empire be guaranteed and the fruits of the empire's victories can be kept.

Because only five army groups were formed. Therefore, there are not many recruits. Many people wept secretly because they couldn't be selected.

In contrast to these hot-blooded youths, there were also some people in the Empire who were opposed to this war. It's just that there are too few of them. So much so that their voices were completely drowned out by the shouts of the people.

"It's crazy, the country is crazy. Their people are so supportive of their foreign wars. I have to admit that the feudal idea is too marketable in this country. Their emperor is simply supreme. Say that there is no other god-like existence! "On the second floor of the British Embassy, Sir Jurdian and Ambassador Schulman were talking. The Emperor of the Chinese Empire personally declared war on Japan, which shocked them greatly. Obviously, they are aware of it, too. This time, the scale of the war launched by the Chinese Empire against Japan seems to be even bigger than they imagined! If it was only to defeat Japan and force Japan to admit defeat, there would be no need for the emperor of the Chinese Empire to express his position in person.

"Yes! It's a crazy country. They have the largest population and the largest territory in the world. Strong industrial power, strong army and navy. This makes them militarily powerful. It can almost be called the first in the world. No matter what country wants to fight against this, it will be a frightening thing. Ambassador Shulman said. Although, the industrial strength of the United States is much stronger than that of China. However, judging from the overall strength of the current performance, the United States is not much stronger than China. Even. If war breaks out between the two countries, the United States will most likely lose. This worries Ambassador Schulman. Because, the contradictions between the Chinese empire and the United States are becoming more and more serious. He was worried that he didn't know when, when the Chinese Empire declared war on Japan. It will befall the United States.

"Your Excellency, there is no doubt that the Chinese Empire has developed into the greatest enemy of the entire Western world. As world leaders, the British Empire and the United States of America should unite to deal with the threat of the Chinese Empire. Sir Jurden said.

"Yes, Sir Sir. However, it is a pity that both of us are just small ambassadors abroad, and our influence on domestic policy is almost equal to zero. Ambassador Schulman said self-deprecatingly.

Sir Jurdian also smiled helplessly, and he had to admit Ambassador Schulman's words. After all, a country's foreign policy is absolutely not determined by its ambassadors abroad. At most, they have the power to make suggestions.

"Anyway, we have to report what is happening in China to the country. Otherwise, sooner or later, the Chinese Empire would pose a serious threat to us. Sir Jurden said.

Ambassador Schulman nodded, regardless of whether or not the country would adopt their advice, but they had to do their part.

In the telegrams sent back to China by Sir Jurdian and Ambassador Schulman, they both pointed out the strength of the Chinese Empire and the terrifying influence of the Chinese Emperor among the people of the Empire. Once the emperor intervened, the people would hardly oppose it, and the fanatical would be able to join in the war. Once the United States or Britain and the Chinese Empire went to war, it would undoubtedly be difficult to win. Therefore, they suggested that the country should keep Japan as much as possible and use Japan to preside China. It's a pity that this time the Chinese Empire is determined to destroy Japan. Even if they want to intervene, it will be difficult to keep Japan. Unless, they really have the courage and determination to tear the skin of the Chinese Empire and go to war directly.

When the Chinese Empire declared war on Japan, the Japanese were equally shocked. Although they all knew that war could not be avoided, it was still a little unexpected that war would come so soon. What's more, this time it was the emperor of the Chinese Empire who personally announced the declaration of war on Japan, and the significance of its representation was undoubtedly even more unusual.

"Damn the Shina people, one day, they will regret and declare war on us." The temple was furious.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, since the Emperor of China has ordered a declaration of war on us. So, can His Majesty the Emperor issue an edict declaring war on China? In this case, we may be able to boost the morale of the people. Lu Xiang Shimoto Shin Sixth General suggested.

"Well, that's a solution." Masaki Terauchi nodded. The reason why the edict was adopted, rather than the speech through the radio, was entirely due to the fact that Emperor Taisho of Japan had something wrong with his head. If anything goes wrong in a radio speech, it's a joke. When the time comes, not only will it not boost the morale of the Japanese people, but it will also deal a certain blow to morale. In that case, the gains outweigh the losses.

Just after the Chinese Empire declared war on Japan, the Japanese Emperor Taisho also issued a letter declaring war, officially declaring war on the Chinese Empire. China and Japan are already at war. Diplomats, expatriates and students from both countries will be evacuated in the shortest possible time.

In the afternoon, several vassal states of the empire also declared war on Japan one after another. The Kingdom of the Ryukyus, the Kingdom of Korea, the Kingdom of Kuwait, the Kingdom of Iraq, and the Kingdom of Iran all declared war on Japan. This has led to the appearance of several countries uniting to fight Japan. In fact, except for the empire, the other countries are just strong. In fact, they don't send many troops to the war.

The Japanese Empire later declared war on these vassal states of the Empire. The Japanese government even clamored that even if the Japanese Empire was defeated by one, the final victory would definitely be theirs.

It's just that war is not a rhetorical game, and it needs to be fought on the battlefield with real swords and guns before the winner can be distinguished.

Just when the Empire declared war on Japan, the main force of the Imperial Navy's Pacific Fleet marched from the port of Naha to Sasebo Naval Base, hoping to force the main force of the Japanese Navy to come out for a decisive battle. If the remaining four Kii-class battleships and the Hiei battlecruiser of the Japanese Navy could be defeated in one fell swoop, the empire would be able to gain sea supremacy.

According to the information obtained by the Empire, all five capital ships of the Japanese Navy have gathered at the Sasebo Military Port.

At the same time, the Imperial Admiralty announced that from now on, the coastal waters of Japan were belligerent. Ships of any country entering this sea area are likely to be sunk. Therefore, the Empire warned the countries to remove the ships from this sea area in time. Otherwise, the Empire will not be held accountable for any of the war's impact.

At the beginning, when the empire was fighting against Japan, it was through this method that Japan was dragged to death. If it weren't for the urgent blood transfusion of the Western powers for Japan, they would have collapsed long ago. Even now, as long as the empire maintains a blockade of Japan and does not allow a grain of rice, a piece of steel, or a barrel of crude oil to enter Japan, Japan will soon collapse.

In the face of the arrogant behavior of the Chinese Empire, countries around the world have made strong accusations. The British and Americans, in particular, have been particularly active. In doing so, they claimed, the Chinese Empire was undermining freedom of navigation on the high seas and was a hegemonic act. Others pointed out that the war between the Chinese Empire and Japan should not be angered at the Japanese civilians, who are innocent.

However, the Chinese Empire does not care about you, and its attitude is very tough. In the eyes of the empire, only dead Japanese are good Japanese. Therefore, whether it is Japanese soldiers or civilians, as long as they do not lay down their arms and surrender to the Empire, then the Empire's attack will not be accepted, and the blockade of Japan will not be contacted.

Of course, it will undoubtedly be very difficult for the Imperial to truly blockade Japan before the Imperial Navy destroys the main force of the Japanese Navy. Only when the Japanese navy is completely eliminated will Japan be completely blocked.
