Chapter 502: Far Eastward Journey (1)

The long Pacific route made Eder gradually accustomed to the turbulence of the sea, and after the ship passed through Hawaii, Eder actually adapted to the sea voyage, so that Edel was finally in the mood to enjoy the scenery at sea.

The Delcy is a new cruise ship that has only been in operation for two years, and its speed is also considered to be the fastest in the Pacific Ocean, so it only took more than 20 days to arrive at Eder's next destination, Japan.

Speaking of Japan, many people have a heartfelt disgust for going to Japan in their hearts, and the reason is very simple, because of the catastrophic war. It is uncomfortable that Japan is the only industrial country in the Far East, but it is true. Although Japan's industry is not as good as that of Italy, it is necessary to consider the distance, and it can be said that he has an extraordinary influence in East Asia, and it is impossible to ignore his role in both good and bad countries.

And it was with this in mind that Edel set foot on this land.

Japan also had a high interest in Eder's visit, for the simple reason that it was related to the Soviet Union. Despite the victory over this opponent in the Russo-Japanese War, anyone in Japan can see that the only one who can threaten Japan at the moment is this polar bear. As for the fanatical officers of the lower ranks, they cannot influence the choice of the country.

Therefore, the Japanese greeted them at a very high standard this time, and Prime Minister Takaaki Kato personally brought people to the port to greet them.

As Eder walked off the boat with Queen Mary, music played, and Foreign Minister Kishigero Bihara stepped forward to greet Eder and his party with a bow.

"Welcome to Japan, His Majesty Eder."

Edel looked at the bespectacled and somewhat kind-faced Japanese foreign minister in response. "Thank you for your warm welcome, and I believe that the friendship between your two countries will be carried forward."

"It is an honor for the people of the two countries to be able to think like this, Your Majesty."

After Foreign Minister Kishigero Bihara finished speaking, he led Eder to Prime Minister Takaaki Kato, and it was another friendly drama of the guest of honor. The welcome ceremony seemed to be grandiose, but in fact it took a short time, because it was known that the journey was too long and inappropriate. So after a brief conversation with the prime minister and others at the dock, the group of cars quickly left the place with the military and police opening the way.

After sending Edel and his party to the accommodation, it was time to rest, and the next welcome dinner was also unavoidable. There is no way, this is the routine of diplomatic visits, and no one is exempt from vulgarity.

After talking with the main and important people of the delegation, Eder returned to his room and closed his eyes to recuperate, and there was no room for error in the welcome dinner.

"Welcome King Eder."

When Eder appeared at the welcome dinner, Prime Minister Takaaki Kato hurried to greet him.

"Thank you, Your Excellency the Prime Minister, for welcoming us. I believe that the cooperation between our two countries will be even closer. โ€

What cooperation Romania can have with Japan is nothing more than its policy toward the Soviet Union and its navy, and as for other aspects, both countries have better options for cooperation.

Eder's words made Prime Minister Takaaki Kato's eyes light up, and he replied. "His Majesty is right, our two countries will come to a consensus on having a common goal."

Prime Minister Takaaki Kato then led Eder to meet the crowd at the welcome dinner. Saionji Gongwang, Inuyang Yi, Takahashi Shiqing, Tanaka Yoshiichi and other famous and unknown figures in later generations were introduced to Eder one by one. And Eder also found that these are basically the constitutional council or related figures, and it seems that the current power in Japan is in the hands of these Japanese politicians.

As for the image of the prime minister of either the navy or the army in the impression of later generations, it is still very early. Although these people are not known for their outstanding abilities, they are much better than the reckless men who have more muscles in their heads than brains. So Eder was quite comfortable at the welcome dinner.

Moreover, Eder also found out from the conversation that the current mainstream of Japan is to resist the possible invasion of the Soviet Union in the north, and to hold back the development of the power of the United States and Britain in the south. As for the idea of seizing their territory and resettling their own population, it is not currently on the minds of those in power.

Only Eder knew that it was the Tokyo earthquake that made the Japanese realize just how unsafe their country really was, and that it would change the political fabric of East Asia.

The welcome dinner was a great success for the top brass of both countries, as the Japanese side probed to find a potential ally that could be directed against the Soviet Union. And Eder also basically understood the attitude of the Japanese government, which at least allowed Romania not to suffer in dealing with it.

The next day, Eder's trip came. As a sign of respect for Eder, today he will go to the Imperial Palace to meet with Prince Hirohito, the crown prince, much to the dissatisfaction of Edel, who wants to meet Taisho, the foolish emperor.

There is no way, Emperor Taisho, who has already made a lot of jokes, how dare the Japanese government continue to let him out to make jokes, not to mention that Eder is still a powerful Western monarch.

The residence of the Emperor of Japan was originally called the Imperial Palace, and the Higashi-Gyoen Garden was the residence of the Emperor's family, and it was also here that the meeting with Eder took place.

Led by his attendants, Edel made his way through the palace to the meeting place. Upon entering, a young man with glasses occupies the host's position, while Prime Minister Takaaki Kato and others stand on his or her side. Eder knew at a glance that this was the only Fรผhrer of the Axis powers to escape punishment in the future, Emperor Hirohito.

As for Hirohito, who is still the crown prince, after seeing Edel enter the door, he immediately greeted the prime minister and others in three or two steps. "Welcome to Japan."

Listening to the young Hirohito pinch his throat and say the so-called crane sound, the interpreter on the side immediately translated it to Eder. There's no way that Eder doesn't know much about the Japanese language, only that he knows that he is ashamed of his clothes and the most famous linen fall, and this is what he learned from Japanese ***** and games in his previous life. As for other foreign languages, English and German, as well as Chinese, the mother tongue of the previous life, are not at all.

So he waited until the translator had finished reading to him before Edel continued. "Thank you for your hospitality, and I need to say thank you here."

And the next conversation between the two parties is carried out under the help of the translator, and it is basically a courtesy word. And Eder could see that the crown prince was speaking with some deliberateness, as if he was imitating this person. Eder, who had known about it from later sources, certainly knew that he was imitating his grandfather, Meiji.

The whole meeting was not very enthusiastic, because Eder felt awkward, mainly because the so-called crane sound was uncomfortable to hear. After this meeting, the next meeting with the prime minister and others will be much better.

"King Eder, your country's severance of the Soviet Union's tentacles into Europe is a powerful response to its evil intentions. The outstanding performance of your army guarantees peace on the European continent. โ€

Prime Minister Takaaki Kato put a tall hat on Eder as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Where, this is nothing but a manifestation of the fact that the people of Europe do not want peace to be broken. There was also no small help from other countries in the defeat of the USSR in our country. โ€

Where is this high hat Eder willing to wear, he immediately said that it is a credit for the help of various countries.

"But the Soviet Union is not going to give up on this, and our two countries are neighbors, so I think we can cooperate a lot more in intelligence and militarily."

Prime Minister Takaaki Kato immediately stated the purpose of the talks.

"Indeed, the Soviet Union inherited the vast majority of Russia's population and territory, and its frightening size, coupled with its agitating ideas, is our great enemy. Moreover, its ideology is to encourage the people of various countries to rebel against the government, which is really a more dangerous existence than Russia. โ€

In the face of Prime Minister Takaaki Kato's words, Eder naturally spoke of a worrying side of the Soviet Union.

"It's scary."

Now that the two heads of state in charge have reached an agreement, the specific cooperation will naturally be left to the following. And Eder also took the opportunity to ask for more help from Japan in the navy, and Eder was also heartbroken for the weak Romanian navy.

The Japanese side naturally talked about Eder's proposed naval cooperation, and finally the Japanese high-level who felt that Romania could not threaten them agreed to cooperate. In return for Japan's willingness to cooperate, Romania will naturally strengthen exchanges on the army. In addition, a batch of petroleum products was also sold to it at a preferential price of 20% off, and this is currently the legal eye of Japan.

After talking about the general direction of cooperation, Eder took a look at the scenery under Japanese officials. And the specific details of cooperation will naturally be handled by someone. When Eder returned from the swim, he naturally saw the negotiated cooperation agreement between Japan and Japan, mainly Japan and Romania in the army and navy, and the other two countries reached a sharing of intelligence against Soviet Russia.

And Eder also took this agreement and boarded the cruise ship to his homeland in his previous life with satisfaction, and this moment seemed to have waited too long.
