"Really? That's something to be aware of! Akiyama Yoshiko frowned, even with his identity as a lieutenant general, plus the name of the father of the Japanese cavalry, coupled with the great exploits since the previous wars, Akiyama Yoshiko is also quite respectful and valued by the not very tall Akashi Genjiro next to him, and the record is not very brilliant, this buddy may not be very good at fighting, but in other aspects, especially in the hidden front, it is simply too strong, whether it is a "civil war" or a "foreign war", he is a good hand! Within the Japanese army, he is known as the god of Japanese espionage!

Before the Russo-Japanese War, Akashi had served as a military attache in Russia, and he had a very deep understanding of Russian society and the army, and provided a great deal of information to the Japanese government, and during the Russo-Japanese War, he met with the leaders of the Bolshevik parties in exile in Europe, and financed the latter's rebellion in Russia. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info put Russia in a state of internal and external difficulties in the Russo-Japanese War. It can be said that the victory of the Russo-Japanese War was greatly attributed to Genjiro Akashi! is no less than those generals who are fighting on the front line,

In the recent "Siemens Incident", Akashi Genjiro also helped Yamayama Aritomo to kill the Yamamoto Gonbei cabinet headed by the father of the Japanese Navy, and even transferred the latter to the reserves, which greatly suppressed the growing naval influence, so that the Japanese Army could finally take a breath, if it were not for the recent Japanese Navy once again violently beat the Americans to save some reputation, the Japanese Army also has a good chance to completely suppress the Navy! As a member of the Army, Akiyama Yoshiko is very grateful for helping the Japanese Army expand its influence in this regard!

Genjiro Akashi can be said to be one of the key factors in the great decline of the influence of the navy, and he is also the main cadre, who played an important role in this "Siemens incident"!

The so-called crows in the world are as black as crows, aren't the crows in the Meiji period of Japan black? That's impossible! Japanese officials also need to make some "extra money"! And from above, from home to abroad, from Germany to England, the Japanese picked up kickbacks and came with foreign money, and it was not soft at all!

And so it is. The person who poked this out was actually very insignificant, and this incident happened in 1910 from a typist in the Siemens office in Japan. Although Richter's status was not high, he was a liaison with Siemens' top management and the Japanese Navy, and was one of the witnesses to several bribery incidents.

How else to say Siemens NB, although it is a German company, but also one of the main suppliers of electrical and communication equipment on the capital ships of the Japanese Navy, in order to ensure that their products can win the bid, some additional benefits are naturally to be given, otherwise the British give, you Germans do not give, why should the Japanese choose you? What the? How dedicated did you say that the Japanese officers at that time were so conscientious? What do you think? Who gave you this illusion?

In order to keep this financial road, Siemens has made a bloody investment! In each order, Siemens will give about 15% of the money to the high-level of the Japanese Navy who are handling equipment procurement for a long time! This is already a self-evident thing within the Japanese Navy! Everyone understands that no one is missing money.

What's the name of a saying? Fortresses are always breached from within, but this time it was clearly an exception! Because, the problem is not with the Japanese side, nor with Siemens, but because of the German government! The Japanese side has formed a very strong alliance of interests, how can it go wrong? Siemens made good money and would not have problems, but the German spy agencies were very clear about the matter, and then the German government was worried that if the matter was leaked, it could "damage the reputation of the empire", so it asked Siemens to transfer the person from Tokyo to Dalian. After Richter arrived in Dalian, the German secret services demanded that he return to Germany immediately, otherwise his life would be threatened!

Richter was not a simple person, and he stole a batch of documents from his office when he left his job, in the spirit of always making a fortune before leaving. And as a threat, he demanded that Siemens pay 25,000 yen to buy it back, and after Siemens refused, Richter sold it to Lutu journalist Andrew Prey for 250 pounds.

How to say, at this time, Richter, who had made a small profit, returned to Germany, and the result of vain trying to play tricks in front of the will of the state was naturally very tragic, and after returning, he was arrested by the Berlin District Prosecutor's Office and prosecuted on the charge of extortion.

If it weren't enough to say that people are greedy, compared to Richter, Andrew's level of journalists is even higher! Ambition is bigger! This guy wrote a report with the information he bought, and the target of the blackmail was still Siemens, but the money was increased by 10 times! Ask Siemens to buy it for 250,000 yen! What is this concept? That's £25,000 when converted to pounds! If you convert it to silver, that's more than 200,000 taels! The prefect of the Qing Kingdom is simply weak compared to him!

However, there was such a fuss here, and the Japanese also heard the rumors, and the Japanese police began to investigate after grasping this news, and the Japanese Navy also has its own channels, if this matter is shaken out. That's if you want to turn the sky upside down, not to mention how many people's jobs have been smashed, the Admiralty, from the Admiralty to the ship designers, will not be able to run! This thing must not be shaken out! So the Ministry of the Navy asked the Metropolitan Police Department to immediately suspend the investigation, and at the same time asked Siemens to give some money? After all, if this thing is poked out, everyone will suffer together.

As a result, the Metropolitan Police Department finally stopped the investigation. Siemens then bought back all the documents from Andrew for 50,000 yen. (Siemens: If you knew this was the case, why bother in the first place, if you talk about the price, maybe 5,000 yen can get it!) And burned directly at the German consulate in Yokohama on the day of bought!

It stands to reason that this is the case in Japan. The evidence is gone, what else? And at this time, Genjiro Akashi made a move! The Japanese Admiralty is well-known at home, and if it is really serious, he will definitely not be able to take advantage of himself, a vice admiral of the Japanese Army. Therefore, people simply took the foreign route!

The Japanese army general obtained the relevant trial results of the Richter case from the Berlin Public Prosecutor's Office in Germany through his connections, and handed them over to the War Department, so that Yamaguchi Aritomo and others had ammunition to attack the navy!
