However, what is surprising is that the statements of these countries are only disgust and regret. Even those countries that have previously called for sanctions on the South China Sea Federation have only regrets and regrets at most, and have no further statements. Even the Foreign Minister of the South China Sea Federation has
He was very puzzled by the vague attitudes of various countries around the world. However, as the person in charge of the federal government's foreign relations, he could not be completely confused about the attitudes of various countries. In desperation, he could only go to the demigod President Liu for help.
.
In the end, Liu Fu only told him that those countries were afraid and were frightened by the military strength of the South China Sea Federation. No one dared to be the leader and jump out to accuse the Federation, because the South China Sea Federation had this precedent, and the British government wanted to hate the South China Sea.
The federal government stood up for the Dutch, but not only lost
Malaysia, the main base in the Far East, is also equipped with an entire fleet. Now the one who needs to stand up for it is Japan. I wonder why European and American countries risk being involved in the war to fight for someone who is neither their best friend nor their best friend.
Why should we go to a country that is not of the same clan but is so far away from us?
In fact, the Japanese government no longer cares about the support of international public opinion. Their country is already in chaos. Since the truth about the bombing was exposed by personnel from foreign embassies and consulates, the Japanese government has been able to cover up the emperor's role in the bombing from the people.
The truth about the victims was revealed. Because the bombing was too heavy
It was so violent that not only Emperor Hirohito and the Empress died unexpectedly, but the Emperor's eldest brother Prince Yoshihito of Chichibu Palace and his family were also killed. Their bodies could not be found, and even the remains of several cars they were riding in could not be found.
Some parts were melted by the high temperature.
The Emperor was killed!!! Moreover, the Emperor only had a daughter who had just turned 1 year old alive, and she was not very healthy when she was born. Whether she could grow up was still a question. In this way, the position of the Emperor was vacant. In the end
Who should sit on it?
There are three candidates, namely Prince Takamatsu Nobuhito, the second brother of Emperor Hirohito, Prince Takahito Mikasa, the third brother, and Prince Hisamiya Yukouchi, the second daughter of Emperor Hirohito. Among these three people, according to the tradition of the Japanese royal family, it should be made by
Hirohito's second brother, Prince Takamatsu Nobuhito, succeeded to the throne, but this prince was adopted by his son when he was 8 years old.
The next marshal of the navy is Prince Hirohito. Although his identity has not changed and he is still a royal family, the issue of the continuation of the royal family's bloodline is not easy to deal with. Which father does he follow? In fact, these are secondary. The reason why Hirohito is like this
The second brother will encounter a lot of opposition when he succeeds to the throne. The main reason is his stepfather's identity--Marshal of the Navy.[
Prince Arisugawa Nobuhito is the marshal of the navy, and has a close relationship with the Tokugawa family, and has a very high reputation in the navy. Therefore, the Japanese army faction and some big families are very reluctant to let Prince Takamatsu nobuhito succeed to the throne, mainly to prevent the navy faction from
Take this opportunity to gain greater rights.
In addition to Prince Takamatsu Nobuhito, Hirohito also has a younger brother, Prince Mikasa Takahito. If the royal family system is strictly followed, this Prince Mikasa Takahito is the most orthodox. He has not been adopted by a side branch, and he is the emperor's biological brother. But this one
Prince Mikasa Takahito is only 12 years old and has not completed formal royal studies. If he succeeds to the throne, he will have to choose a prince as regent, which is quite troublesome.
In addition to the two younger brothers of Emperor Hirohito mentioned above, the one closest to Hirohito is his second daughter, Prince Hisamiya Yukouchi. Although she is a girl and younger, only 1 year old, she also received a number of emperors.
With die-hard support, they even clamored to modify the royal tradition and allow a female emperor to appear in Japan.
In fact, the above-mentioned bloodline struggle for successor candidates is only a superficial phenomenon. The struggle for interests between politicians, chaebols, and military groups behind them is the essence. The faction supporting Xuanren is represented by the Navy and the Tokugawa family, and they have always advocated
R Japan focuses on defense, increasing naval construction and reducing army investment. It learns from the South China Sea Federation's methods and obtains maximum results at the lowest cost. Then it vigorously develops R Japan's economy and strengthens cooperation with the South China Sea Federation to reduce confrontation.
The faction that supports Chongren is mainly represented by the Army and several arms tycoons. They advocate external expansion, actively move closer to Britain and the United States, and use the influence and assistance of Britain and the United States to gain more living space in East Asia, because
If there is no expansion, these armies will have to be reduced, and the chaebols will not be able to get sufficient markets.
The group that supports Yuko Kunomiya is mainly the royal family and some politicians. They feel that r Japan is now exhausted. Instead of continuing to choose sides between Britain, the United States and the South, it is better to downplay militarism and settle down to plan for r Japan's domestic war.
things, at least
It is safer not to get involved in international disputes in the short term, but to choose a female emperor who is neither a navy nor an army and has nothing to do with the plutocrats. Moreover, they advocate surrender to the South China Sea Federation. The sooner they surrender, the more likely they are to surrender.
r will suffer less damage.
The battle for the emperor in Japan continues, and the war between the two countries in South Korea has not stopped. The Federal Air Force does not care who is the emperor in Japan. It continues to implement the planned plan of the Ministry of National Defense. On the fourth day after bombing Tokyo
On the same day, two batches of 90 bombers took off from Miyazaki Airport and bombed Kitakyushu and Shimonoseki on Honshu Island. The two cities were unable to fight back and became the 10th and 11th cities destroyed by fire.
This major city.
Then, five days later, on January 1, 1928, the first day of the new year, an aircraft carrier formation and a heavy cruiser of the Federal Navy visited Wakayama City on Honshu Island and launched an attack on the beach here.
landed. Under the cover of naval aviation aircraft, more than 10,000 people
The soldiers of the First Division successfully landed on land and began to establish a beachhead. However, the Japanese army stationed here did not fire a shot. After discovering the federal navy's fleet, they immediately withdrew 15 kilometers.
I ran to Yan, a small town east of Geleshan City, and left.
When the 1st Federal Division occupied the beachhead position without any hindrance and began to deploy defensive positions outwards, several R Corps officers appeared in front of the 1st Federal Division holding white flags and asked for command of the federal army.
When the officers met, they claimed to be officers of the Osaka Division of Japan's Fourth Standing Division.
The commander of the landing force of the First Division was a brigade commander. He was puzzled by the R Army officers coming to visit. When the two sides met, the R Army officers quickly stated the purpose of the trip. They proposed
The request made the brigade commander of the First Division very surprised. The Fourth Division actually planned to surrender. As long as the federal army would not mistreat the prisoners, they would surrender the entire division, surrender their weapons on the spot, and obey the arrangements of the federal army.
The brigade commander of the First Division was a little unsure when facing this situation, because during the mobilization before the war, the Ministry of National Defense, the Ministry of Army, and the Ministry of Interior all repeatedly emphasized that the Japanese army
The will to fight was very strong, so these participating troops only considered how to reduce their own casualties and try to avoid the opponent's so-called suicide attacks. They did not consider the issue of surrender at all, let alone the surrender of an entire division of nearly 30,000 people.
Unable to make the decision himself, and unable to judge whether it was true or false, the brigade commander had no choice but to ask the Federal Navy to stop air strikes first, and then he reported it to the First Division. The entire report came to the Federal Landing Force Headquarters at Miyazaki Airport, and the First Division
The division commander and the commander of the 1st Mountain Division were both confused after seeing it. A division of the R Army is still a standing main force.
The division, with nearly 30,000 people, actually wanted to surrender to the 10,000 people who landed on the federal government without firing a shot, and it was basically a conditional surrender. How could this look like a trap? However, the two division commanders did not dare to say that this was a trap.
I thought about the trap over and over again, but in the end I couldn't figure it out clearly. I could only ask for instructions from the higher ups, and finally this report came into Liu Fu's hands.
When Liu Fu saw the name Osaka Division, he felt it looked familiar. He thought about it for a moment, then ran to his special study room, took out a later ship knowledge illustrated magazine from the safe, and flipped through a few pages.
Finally found a report about the Osaka Division of the Fourth Division.
This report was written by an American staff officer during World War II. After the end of World War II, he was mainly engaged in sorting out Japanese military documents at that time. Due to his exposure to a large number of Japanese military secret files, he selected them
I wrote a report on some confidential matters, mainly
Introducing the main combat forces of Japan's navy and army in World War II, there is a description of the Osaka Division. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian. Your monthly vote is your support.
