National Policy Volume VII Peninsula Gunsmoke Chapter 110 Killing

Capital city. Prime Minister's Office.

After reading the news report. Sadamasa Murakami went to the conference room.

The provisional government of the DPRK suddenly made a diplomatic statement. Declares Korea to be the only legitimate regime on the peninsula that is recognized by the republic. It will exercise sovereignty over all national territory, including the territory under the jurisdiction of the "puppet regime of the Southern Dynasties".

This "helpless" diplomatic statement has far-reaching implications.

Sadamasa Murakami didn't feel out. Because this is not a statement by the provisional government of the DPRK. Rather, it is a "statement" by China. After the outbreak of the war on the peninsula. China has been trying to "seek" or "create" legitimate reasons to send troops to war and promote war. The provisional government of the DPRK is a "regime" supported by China. There is no secret instruction from China. Did the North Korean government have the courage to make such a major diplomatic statement?

China's purpose in doing so is often simple: to justify the seizure of the entire peninsula.

A lot of people don't get it. Why should the country have the upper hand? Deliberately creating a casus belli. In the eyes of most people. China seeks justification before entering the war. Mainly to avoid the outbreak of a full-scale war with the United States; The United States has withdrawn its troops from the Korean Peninsula. It is clear that there will be no fight with China. Is it still necessary to seek reason?

Murakami saw it clearly. China seeks reason. In order to establish a "glorious image".

"The Taoist helps the unenlightened" will never go out of style.

No matter what the time. War needs a reason. Even if it's an unjustifiable reason. When the United States was dominant. In order to control the world's oil depots. The CIA sought to prove that "Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction." threatens world peace and stability". It provided "sufficient" reasons for the overthrow of Saddam's regime.

China is gradually moving towards the throne of the world's number one power. There is a greater need to justify war.

From a realistic point of view, the country has gone to great lengths to create a justification for war. The settlement of the Taiwan issue is closely related. If China is not discriminate. Send troops to destroy a country as you like. It will not only damage China's international image. It will also create an insurmountable obstacle to China's "peaceful reunification."

It turns out. China after each "manufacture" reason. will take new war actions.

This time was no exception. On the 4th. The National Intelligence Agency, the Ministry of Defense Intelligence Agency, later provided Murakami with "the latest strategic information" and predicted that China would attack Jeju Island around the 10th. The next day, the relevant information arrived in the United States. China's aircraft carrier battle group turned north. The Marines began to mobilize. The National Intelligence Agency and the Ministry of Defense Intelligence have made adjustments to the previous "speculation." Brought the time of China's attack on Jeju Island to 10 days earlier.

Even without the information provided by the United States, Japan was able to move the squadron.

Before the junta came to power, it was already vigorously developing military reconnaissance and guarding. As the fourth country in the world to launch an artificial satellite, the Republic is the fifth country to launch an artificial satellite. Japan has a good space industry. In addition, the performance of this reconnaissance satellite is not lagging behind, and it is sufficient to carry out strategic reconnaissance missions.

Although in the upper chastity of the eyes. China's attack on Jeju Island is not a "big deal", but the Japanese army has a different |.

As an island nation. The sea is Ben's best defensive barrier.

After the Meiji Restoration. Japan has always attached great importance to the control of power. He even regards sea supremacy as the foundation of a country's survival. Although China is the closest big country to Japan. It is also a direct competitor of Japan. But with hundreds of kilometers of the East China Sea, the Yellow Sea and the Sea of Japan. Japan was given a very superior defensive barrier. Imagine this. If the island falls into Chinese hands less than 250 meters from the Japanese mainland. What will be the result?

For fighters with a combat radius of hundreds or even thousands of kilometers, say that 250 meters is not an obstacle at all. If China wants to. There is not even a need to send in the Air Force. It is only necessary to deploy tactical ballistic missiles and long-range rockets with a range of more than 300 meters on Jeju Island. It can effortlessly destroy many large and medium-sized cities on Kyushu Island, such as Nagasaki, Fukuoka, Oita, Kumamoto, Kita-Kyushu, Kagoshima, etc. Even hit the large and medium-sized cities in the western part of Shikoku Island and this week.

The results can be imagined. Japan will face the toughest test.

Jeju Island is used as a springboard. The National Army was able to shorten the logistical support line by two-thirds. Deliver troops and supplies to the Japanese mainland with greater efficiency. Long-range anti-submarine patrol aircraft and anti-submarine helicopters deployed on Jeju Island are capable of blocking access to the Yellow Sea for Japanese submarines. Ensure the safety of the rear sea line. The Chinese Navy can be a small high-speed ship in the Jeju Island. Send carrier battle groups to more important battlefields.

It is no exaggeration to say. Jeju Island is an unsinkable aircraft carrier.

In the requirements of the "Ministry of War" |. Murakami convened this emergency meeting.

Actually, I look at it in Murakami. Jeju Island is not the key at all.

Although China did not show its attitude. But Murakami believes. In the case that the United States withdrew from the Korean Peninsula, Japan had no intention of sending troops. China will definitely occupy the entire territory of the peninsula. After the war, it leased many military bases to North Korea, including Busan. Slightly encircled in pairs of Japan.

All of it. They are all doing to defeat Japan in the end.

And so it goes. Japan should be concerned. Instead of Jeju Island using the railway. Large quantities of war materiel can be delivered to Busan, about 230 meters from the Japanese mainland, in a threatened situation. And use Busan as a springboard to attack Japan. Arguably. Busan is a more ideal base for moving forward. Jeju Island is just a decoration.

The question is. Unless Japan enters the war. Otherwise, no one would have been able to stop the Chinese team from occupying Busan.

Murakami was able to see the problem clearly. The generals of the "military department" can naturally also see the problem.

meeting. Including Iwasaki Nobukawa. No one deliberately mentioned Busan. Instead, the focus was on Jeju Island.

Nobukawa Iwasaki's attitude is clear. Use the "Jeju Island issue," which has become a hot topic, to put pressure on the prime minister. Forcing the Prime Minister to make a decision - war.

Does it make sense to go to war at this time?

Murakami is not a stupid person. Every step China takes is very small. We are trying to avoid a direct conflict with Japan. Preparing for all-out war again. That is, the Japanese army was able to successfully land on the Korean Peninsula. It is also impossible to save the regime of Yanagi Sojun, which is about to end.

Can Japan afford to send 1 million troops in two months? Apparently impossible!

Sadamasa Murakami even thinks. Even if a team of 1 million is dispatched. The Japanese were also unable to defeat the squadron in a semi-battlefield. The US 4th Division has nearly 100,000 troops. It lasted less than 15 days. 500,000 troops of the 2nd Army of the Republic of Korea. 5 didn't make it to the end.

The combat effectiveness of the Chinese Army is too strong. Ben is not afraid of any opponent.

If Ben goes to war. China will certainly send more troops. Including the 3rd Army, which has been stationed in Beijing to serve as the capital guard.

Murakami Sadamasa is not a soldier. But know the strength of the 39th Army.

According to the most conservative estimates. The 39th Army, with more than 30,000 troops, can easily defeat the Japanese army five times its size!

Is it possible for Japan to win on the battlefield?

The answer is clear. It is not the Army that ensures Japan's security. It's the Air Force and Navy.

At this time. The ideal choice is based on the problems and shortcomings exposed by the squadron's performance in the peninsula war. Rectify Japan's national defense policy as soon as possible. Consolidation of national defense forces. Avoid becoming a second Korea in the next war.

Wise politicians. Definitely will not take the initiative to provoke a "lion" with high morale and high morale.

Of course. A military man is not a politician. At least not a sane politician.

The discussion went on for several hours. Murakami Sadamasa has a "bar-raising" with the "arrogant" Iwasaki Nobukawa. It's not even a seldom hair'. Because Murakami's attitude is unclear. So Tanikatsu and the others did not argue with Iwasaki Nobukawa. Let that navy "clown" perform as much as he can.

The results were the same as in previous meetings. No conclusions were drawn. Kamisadamao did not make a promise to send troops.

As Shunji Kiryu came to the conference room with new news. The "emergency meeting" was declared closed.

“|？”

"It's been decided. Both of our nuclear submarines are tracked and monitored. Shunji Kiryu wiped the sweat from his forehead. He looked very flustered.

Murakami Sadamasa frowned slightly. Pick up the pace.

Back to the office. Tell the secretary to close the door. Murakami asked, "Who did it?" ”

"It's definitely a submarine in China. And most likely, the most advanced electric submarine. ”

Murakami Sadamasa sighed. He said: "This is a warning from China. Let us not act rashly. Is there a way to find the submarine in China? ”

"Efforts have been made. So far, nothing has been gained. ”

Murakami closed his eyes. Bite the bullet. Apparent was very angry.

This is a very obvious statement. If the day makes any "overreacting". Chinese submarines will sink 2 Japanese nuclear submarines at the first time. A strategic counterattack to destroy Japan.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister. This matter must not be hidden for long. Iwasaki ......"

"I know. Iwasaki will definitely take advantage of this. "Murakami Sadamasa sat down." No, no, I don't admit it. The gap between us and China is too great. China has been preparing for a full-fledged war. The other day. All strategic bombers in China stopped performing tactical missions. Switched to combat readiness patrols. Really went to war with China. We don't have any odds of winning. The result is 10,000 times more tragic than in South Korea. ”

"The most important thing now is not China. It's how to deal with Iwasaki. ”

Murakami Sadamasa smiled coldly. said: "Iwasaki is just a clown jumping beam. It didn't last long. Help me contact Yamaga-kun. Put the guards into alert mode. See me after dinner. ”

"Tonight?"

Murakami nodded. "There is another meeting in the evening. I will make it clear. Then take action. Nobukawa Iwasaki is not an idiot. He won't be given any chance. Let Tani Ryohei come over before the end of the meeting. There are things that need to be done by us – and not by the military. ”

Shunji Kiryu nodded. Didn't ask anything more.

Murakami had a murderous intent. No one can change the fate of Iwasaki Nobukawa.
