Chapter 885, Japan Plan

After a pause, Yuto Yama Prefecture returned to his calmness. He slowly picked up the half-cool tea and drank it all. He looked at the cherry blossoms in the middle of the yard, and said in a daze: "Justice and Dashanjun, I had already talked very clearly. At this time, we emperors must be united. Whether military or politically, there must be no inconsistency. As for the Constitutional Council and Nishiyuanji Gongwang, I believe that they cannot stop us from expanding at this time. You must know that as long as we can bring China back to our original form, the social status of our emperors can be improved to a higher level. In other words, this is not only for the country, but also for us samurai who have bleeding and working for the empire!"

Qingpu Kuiwu nodded and said, "You are talking about it."

Yupeng of Shanxian slowed down and said, "As for the funding issue, I don't need the Ministry of Finance to pay me much money, but the plan must be passed. After that, I will have a good talk with the British, Russian, and Americans. At this time, we should issue a batch of war bonds and then use some mortgaged industries to exchange for formal loans. Although I know this can only be dealt with for a while, we must use war to support wars like the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War."

Qingpu Kuiwu suddenly thought of something, so he quickly said, "Oh, by the way, I suddenly remembered something. I went down to see Song Fangjun three days ago. It is said that he was already negotiating with the Americans. The US government seems to be very interested in our issuance of war bonds and loans."

The Matsukaya-kun he mentioned was Matsukaya Matsukaya Matsukaya, and later Prime Minister, and was also one of the 9 Meiji veterans. He was born in a Sammo Sammo. He had the certificate of bowing "Meihei River" and Kendo's "Showing River" and was proficient in equestrianism. He joined Okupo Ritsu. He led the *** finance for 22 years since 1881, selling public enterprises to the public, creating a central bank, recycling paper money, and suppressing inflation. In 1898, he even used the Sino-Japanese War compensation to transform the *** financial system into a gold standard. He was in charge of two short-term administrations, both of which were not efficient due to the harshness and harshness of the parliament. He was named the Duke in 1922 and died in Tokyo.

Yuto Tomoto of Shan County smiled coldly and said, "It would be great if he could get money from the Americans. However, the Americans are old foxes. They wish that Asia will fight fiercely like Europe, and then take the opportunity to make war money from both sides. This doesn't matter. The key is to get money. The United States still has its own plan. They can first invest a sum of funds from both China and Japan to throw bricks and jade. When China and Japan really fight, they will make big moves based on the battlefield situation. I think the United States should have judgment and not waste too much money on the Chinese... However, this depends on the actual situation on the battlefield!"

Qingpu Kuiwu nodded and said confidently: "Yes, although the Qingdao War failed, this just reminds us that we will definitely do our best in the next battle. With 100% of our Great *** Empire's investment, the Chinese team will definitely be vulnerable."

Shanxian Youpeng did not comment on Qingpu Kuiwu's words. He carefully poured out the tea leaves in the teapot, added some new tea leaves, and poured the hot water that had just been boiled into the teapot. He watched the hot water pour into the teapot, and suddenly changed the topic again and said, "I have one thing that you need to arrange, and the faster the better."

Qingpu Kuiwu asked, "Please give me instructions."

While taking the bubbled new tea to fill Qingpu Kuiwu's tea cup, Youpeng said calmly: "You send someone to Manchuria in person and contact all the local warlords as secretly as possible. Be sure to help them distinguish their interests. Never let Wu Shaoting's spring third-level army be handled too smoothly."

Qingpu Kuiwu immediately understood what Youpeng in Shanxian was meant. Because the Chinese team wanted to start the war before the *** was ready, they must find a way to use warlords to restrain Wu Shaoting. Even if they could not really stop Wu Shaoting, they had to do their best to delay time and gain more time for the *** dispatching the army. However, he still didn't understand one thing very well, so he asked: "Don't this matter be contacted by Lushun, why do you have to send someone to handle it?"

Shanxian Youtuo said in a stronger tone: "The warlords in the three eastern provinces of China are now in a dilemma. In their opinion, they want to protect their own interests and take into account the overall situation of the whole country. In this case, people in Manchuria will not only seem insincere, but will even make these warlords feel even more bored. In other words, we must raise the standards for treating these warlords and make them realize that they can gain more benefits through our Great Empire, so that they will be determined to fight their central government."

Qingpu Kuiwu suddenly realized, "So that's it. I happened to hear that China is undergoing tax reforms recently. The biggest beneficiary of this reform is the central government, and the warlords in the northern provinces are the most damaged. Taking this opportunity to negotiate with the warlords in the three northeastern provinces, I believe that they will achieve twice the result with half the effort."

Yupeng of Shan County smiled and said, "Is this really the case?"

Qingpu Kuiwu nodded and replied: "This is true. Chinese newspapers are reporting one after another during this period."

Yutoto Yama County showed a happy expression and said, "That would be even better."

After he finished speaking, he picked up the tea cup and blew the heat, and then drank the tea with a satisfied feeling.

The main thing that Qingpu Kuiwu came to today was to report to Youpeng, Shan County about the domestic finance and the three northeastern provinces of China. Now that the matter has been completed, he is about to get up and say goodbye.

But at this moment, Yuto Yama County put down his teacup and suddenly said, "In addition... there is another thing I want to hear from you. Although this matter has little to do with you and you are not even good at it, but because of this, I think your opinion should be more insightful."

Qingpu Kuiwu asked in confusion: "Please speak with you, your Excellency."

Yutoto of Shanxian hesitated for a moment, as if he was looking for a more appropriate wording, and then said: "The Army Province has been arguing about something recently, which is a discussion on whether the air force should be set up. The final failure of the Qingdao war was not only because of the lack of sufficient preparations before the war and excessive underestimation of the enemy, but also because of the unexpected factors. We did study the combat cases of the air force before, but we never expected that after the development of the past few years, the Chinese air force could play such a huge role."

Qingpu Kuiwu immediately understood what Youpeng in Shan County meant, and he asked: "Is there any difference between the Army Province on this matter?"

Yupeng of Shanxian nodded and said, "Yes, many people think that it is the moment of world war and should continue to focus on the development of the navy. As for the air force, it is nothing more than some wooden planes, and the simplest air defense facilities are enough to cope with. Of course, some people consider it from an economic perspective. Judging from our development history for so many years, the General Staff Headquarters has been working hard on the navy and suddenly established an air force again. I am afraid that financial difficulties will be increasingly difficult, and the expected investment in the army will be greatly reduced."

Qingpu Kuiwu nodded thoughtfully and said, "Actually, I don't think we can't say that we don't develop, nor do we have vigorous development, but at least we must ensure that we have the air force in our hands, so that we will not watch the enemy planes and the airships hover over our heads but are powerless. As for air defense weapons, it is also necessary, but we must never ignore the construction of air force just because we have air defense weapons in our hands. In this way, our army will always be in a passive position during combat."

Yuto Yama County pondered and nodded slowly and said, "What you said makes sense... In fact, those who agree with the establishment of the Air Force have not been thought about it. Just recently, on the European battlefield, Germany used a new aircraft mechanism to formulate a set of 'plundering tactics' to specifically attack the transportation lines and logistics forces between Britain and France. At the same time, Germany's new airships have more accurate bombing and operation capabilities, and often launch bombings on the French team at night. These are all cases that are in front of us."

Qingpu Kuiwu said deeply: "Yes, I have heard before that because the Chinese had absolute air supremacy during the Qingdao War, our artillery was even restricted very much, and the detection balloons were completely unable to take off. I think air combat will make great progress in the next few decades. If we don't start now, we will be getting backward."

Shanxian Youpeng said calmly: "Your sentence is right. That's right, the emergence of an emerging military service will definitely rewrite the old battlefield system. If we cannot detect this in time, the loss may be not just a war, but more likely an era. This is a very terrible thing."

Qingpu Kuiwu was very satisfied with the view that Shanxian Youpeng appreciated his views. He picked up the teacup and took a pleasant sip.

Yuto Yama County squinted his eyes and stared at a few cherry blossoms that were blown down by the wind and rain, muttering to himself in a daze: "It seems that we must get more economic support now..."
