Chapter 150 150 is worthy of being a childhood sweetheart
Lin Youde got the latest report on the situation in Tokyo, and as soon as he opened it, he saw the text of the bombardment of Tokyo by the fleet formed by Nagato Mutsu.
"Holy." He said.
But after reading it carefully, Lin Youde realized that the Japanese fleet only fired at the water on the shore and did not cause actual damage. It looks like a deterrent operation by the Japanese Navy against the Japanese Army.
However, blatantly firing at the capital or something, even if it does not cause actual damage, is a terrible event, and it seems that the 226 of this time and space is much more serious than the previous time and space. The navy has used this method to deter the army, and it seems that the Japanese army is now in a state of radical power.
According to the timeline of the last time and space, at this time, the Japanese Army General Staff Headquarters was indeed in power by the radical faction developed from the Sakura Society, and by the time 226 happened, the army was mainly controlled by the more moderate control faction. But Lin Youde has traveled for so long, and he knows that this time and space will not completely follow the development of the previous time and space, and many specific details are actually quite different.
Therefore, Lin Youde continued to carefully read the reports compiled by the intelligence agencies, trying to grasp the current situation in Japan. Viola, who was sitting across from him, still had the documents she had to deal with as president, but her eyes kept glancing at Lin Youde's side.
Finally, she signed the document in her hand and looked up at Lin Youde: "How is it?" The Japanese side. ”
"To be honest, it's terrible, but it has nothing to do with us," Lin Youde is still reading the report, "Most of the middle and lower-ranking officers and almost all the grassroots soldiers of the Japanese Army are from poor backgrounds, and they are very dissatisfied with the fact that the people's lives have not improved since they gained independence, and they think that the top of the government has deceived them and embezzled the benefits of independence." Some of the Army's mid- and high-ranking generals who advocated radical reforms to change the country's status quo took advantage of the demands of junior officers. ”
Lin Youde shrugged, then looked up at Viola: "That's how our intelligence analysis experts interpret it. ”
"What do you think?"
"For now, I agree with that." Lin Youde flipped another page of the report, and then continued, "Now, after the Navy opened fire on the demonstration, the situation in Tokyo seems to be temporarily under control. Under the threat of naval artillery, the army probably did not dare to act rashly for a short time. ”
"Will the situation eventually turn into a revolution?"
Faced with Viola's question, Lin Youde shook his head.
"At least from this interim report, this tendency is not discerned. The mutiny was under the banner of reverence for the emperor and treachery, and the anger of the middle and lower rank officers and rank-and-file soldiers was skillfully channeled, at least for the time being, and there was little to mention other than to help the careerists in the army weed out dissenters. It would not be long before the top brass of the army and navy made peace, and after a series of exchange of interests, the middle and lower rank officers who had risen were abandoned, the soldiers returned to the barracks, and the people watched from the sidelines from beginning to end. ”
"It's incomprehensible." Viola shook her head, "Wasn't the trigger for this mutiny the previous Japanese government's crackdown on progressives?" Isn't it strange that it didn't turn into a nationwide revolution at its worst? ”
"Because the masterminds of the previous repression of progressives and the masses are also the same people who are now supporting the mutiny behind the scenes." Lin Youde shrugged.
At this time, the fox, who was sleeping on the sofa, suddenly raised a hand and said, "This is Japan, a magical island country." ”
Then the fox sat up, stretched his waist and looked at the two men who had been working hard, and said in a very low voice, "Hard work. ”
"If you eat, sleep, sleep and eat like this, you will become a pig one day." Viola cursed viciously.
The fox laughed and picked up the nuts on the coffee table and threw them into his mouth.
Then she stood up, walked over to the two of them, and said, "I have been in Japan for so long, and I have been observing the actions of these great men who will lead the course of the new country in the future, and I have come to the conclusion that none of the current Japanese politicians have sufficient foresight and courage. Perhaps there were some visionaries among the politicians before I was born, so that the upper echelons of Japan were able to plan this independent project that lasted for decades, but the current group of people ......."
The fox shook his head.
"This is also related to traditional culture, Yingzhou people are a race that emphasizes 'conformity' very much, and now Japanese politicians are actually conforming to the herd, many people see that if they do not give up some interests to appease the masses, sooner or later there will be problems, but they have chosen to bite the benefits that have been eaten in their mouths like everyone else."
"Thank you for explaining." Viola said to the fox, "So I don't understand the people of Yingzhou anymore. ”
"Think of the Austrian aristocracy," Lin Youde said to Viola, "and then you think that the upper class of Japan is not so unreasonable now. ”
Lin Youde paused and continued: "If I were to lead Japan, I would probably be very helpless now. The road to external expansion has been blocked, and internal reform has been hampered by vested interests. There is no way to solve these problems without completely tearing down and reconstructing the country once. Only through the revolution can we smash all the pots and jars and start all over again. ”
"No one in power will allow others to overthrow their rule." Viola nodded, "I'll understand that way." So, it seems that we don't need to intervene in the Asian issue at all, and as long as we continue to wait, Japan, which you regard as a thorn in the side, will naturally collapse. ”
"That's right." Lin Youde nodded, and just as he wanted to say, "But the Japanese won't sit still," the fox spoke.
"Those in power in Japan are probably not going to sit still. With their brains, the only way they can come up with it is to expand externally. ”
"Expansion?" Viola looked very surprised, "Where?" ”
The fox shrugged his shoulders: "Maybe continue to fight China, maybe go to Russia, or go south to Borneo to fight the Americans." ”
"With their current strength? Are they crazy? Viola's expression was exaggerated, "Isn't this just hitting a stone with an egg?" ”
"yes, so you see, I'm not messing with them." The fox spread her hands, and at this moment she seemed to suddenly remember something, turned her head and smiled at Lin Youde, "Speaking of which, I noticed Lin at the time, or because he threw out a saying that Yingzhou's independence is equal to destruction." ”
Lin Youde also remembered this stubble, so he also curved the corners of his mouth: "Yes, at that time, you were still a man, and you were the boss of a group of Yingzhou international students." ”
"But my woman's disguise as a man was first exposed by you." The fox said and turned behind Lin Youde, stretched out his hands to hug Lin Youde's neck, and then "massaged" the back of Lin Youde's head with his chest as usual.
"I see," Viola nodded in realization, "so you came to live with your dear ...... after that."
"At that time, I naively thought that I would come over and spy on you, and kill you if necessary." The fox put his chin on Lin Youde's head and rubbed it back and forth, "Looking back now, I was too young at that time. This is simply a meat bun beating a dog, losing all his money, and losing all his money. ”
Viola looked at the two people who were so in love, and her eyes seemed to say, "As a hostess, I'm here", and finally, she forcibly shifted the topic from the story of their acquaintance to the current situation in Asia: "Although you say that Japan will continue to expand, judging from the current situation, no matter which side they fight, they will die immediately." Russia has long since recovered, and even the strength of the Far Eastern Military District could easily bulldoze the entire northeast of China and the Korean Peninsula. ”
"Under these circumstances, Japan would probably unite with Britain and go to war against Russia on the pretext of restricting Russia's expansion in Asia." Lin Youde directly copied Japan's practices before the Russo-Japanese War in the last time and space, so "speculated".
"In the same way, if Japan wants to move west, or go south, it will definitely unite with Russia."
"And what about United States?" Viola asked, "The United States lacks a goddess, and Japan's birth rate of goddesses in recent decades is higher than the statistical value, which just complements the United States, isn't it?" ”
"The only disadvantage to Japan uniting with the United States is that when it wants to go south, it will be in the way of a Philippines. It was indeed a good idea, but for the United States, they lacked a reason to unite with Japan. You see, Japan's gods can't be given to the United States, right? Lin Youde spread his hands.
At this time, the fox laughed and said, "Japan has sent you a goddess all the way." ”
Her words made both Lin Youde and Viola laugh, and the slightly serious atmosphere was eased because of this.
"It's boring to talk about these national affairs!" The fox stood up and stretched his waist again, the curve of his plump chest twisted and changed with the movement of stretching his waist, but it was a pity that Lin Youde had no chance to feast his eyes with his back to her. Then she forcibly snatched the documents in front of Lin Youde and said loudly: "Okay, okay, it's been a day of work, and there is still a little time before dinner, let's go out and play badminton!" It's rare that there is no snow today! ”
Just then, a photo fell out of the file.
The fox glanced at the photo curiously, and suddenly laughed.
Lin Youde looked puzzled and asked suspiciously, "What are you laughing at?" ”
"No, ha......ha This guy really shaved off his long hair and continued to serve in the navy as a man! What a fool. ”
"Who?" Lin Youde was still confused.
So the fox picked up the photograph and pointed to him and pointed to Yamamoto Isoroku in the photo.
"Don't you think this rear admiral looks a little too young?"
Lin Youde nodded, it turned out that the gap between Yamamoto Fifty-six in the World Realm and this photo was really a little far, and he still complained in his heart when he first saw this photo.
Viola stood up, leaned over the desk, looked at the picture as well, and commented, "That's a little too delicate for a man...... It's kind of like a woman dressing up as a man......"
"Viola has good eyesight!" The fox exaggerated and exclaimed, "She is a woman, my childhood playmate, her name is Tachibana Qinli, and she is a goddess like me." Fifty-six Yamamoto is the name I gave her when I played with Jiajia. Haha......ha When Japan loses the war in the future, when I go back, I must laugh at her, and I will keep this photo. ”
Viola frowned, looked at the fox and looked at the photo, and said, "You are worthy of being childhood sweethearts, you all like women to dress up as men......"
