Kyoto, Japan.
The atmosphere in the palace was very depressed and depressing, and what everyone didn't expect was that Changyi was really defeated, and the most uncomfortable thing was that the independent division actually held a press conference for this, and let go of the wild words.
This is tantamount to a slap in the face for their Japanese empire, what the horn of China's counteroffensive has officially sounded, what journey has begun, and what Japanese have been unable to defend.
Therefore, everyone present was quite angry.
If Zhou Weiguo was here at this time, these people would have killed Zhou Weiguo many times with one look.
At this moment, Nobuyuki Abe is also silent, he may be one of the few people who can control his emotions and recognize the situation clearly.
As Prime Minister, at this time, of course, he has to stand up.
"Your Majesty."
Nobuyuki Abe spoke, and at this point, he spoke, attracting everyone's attention.
"Abe-kun, please speak."
Emperor Showa's voice was a little low, he had already passed the stage of anger, he was already reflecting on whether it was true that they could no longer stop the Chinese, and had fallen into the stage of self-doubt.
He had always admired his grandfather, Emperor Meiji, so he always wanted to make Japan strong, so he worked hard to start a war when their powerful neighbors were at their weakest.
He hoped that he could open up the territory of the Japanese Empire, so that the Japanese people could live a good life, and even leave this small land.
In his opinion, good things can naturally only be possessed by the strong, and his neighbor was once very powerful, and their Japanese empire, since thousands of years ago, has been learning from their neighbor.
Finally, they surpassed this neighbor, and moreover, they occupied one-third of the neighbor's land, and took countless wealth and resources from the neighbor's house, and he originally thought that his dream would continue until it came true.
But now, their originally cowardly neighbor suddenly had the strength to resist him, which made him very angry, and after being angry, he calmed down and doubted himself again.
After all, the neighbors have a big business, and the Japanese Empire, whether in terms of land or population, can not compare, originally, it is to use the advantages of the complete industrial system on its side to make up for the lack of population, it is precisely because of the lack of population, so the soldiers of the empire have no taboos in the neighbor's house.
You can't wait until you take down your neighbors and find that there are still more people in your neighbor's house than in your own house.
But all this was ruined by a young man named Zhou Weiguo, who used a strategy to drive a wedge between this young man and his leader, but in the face of strength, he failed.
It's not that their empire can't destroy this young man at all costs, but if they want to do this, then the strength of the empire doesn't know what it will regress into, and besides, this young man also bombed Tokyo before, which makes him a little afraid, afraid that this young man will do something out of the ordinary and break the net.
"Your Majesty, colleagues," Nobuyuki Abe then said in a loud voice, "the empire has suffered a series of defeats on the battlefields of China recently, and has suffered heavy losses.
This does not mean that the empire cannot defeat China.
The conquest of China was a long-term and protracted war, and we were all too proud and confident before. ” Nobuyuki Abe's words poured cold water on most of the people present.
"The leader of the Communist Party of China, Mao, once said that the struggle against our empire is a hard and protracted war."
"It's like Taiwan, when we first got Taiwan, didn't the people there also resist, but now, how much time will it take for them to accept us?"
"So, although China has counterattacked, but, where are the places where they counterattacked, Gaomi, Jiaozhou, Changyi, Jiujiang, Fuzhou, however, Wuhan is still under the defense of the empire, Nanjing is still under the control of the empire, Beiping is also under the control of the empire Then, there are Luoyang, Kaifeng, Hangzhou, China's six ancient capitals, there are 5, under the iron hooves of the empire" Abe Nobuyuki's voice suddenly cheered up, "So, on the battlefield in China, The empire still achieved great results, even if now the Chinese are beginning to recover some places, but their capital of the Republic of China, Nanjing, has been taken by us, what do they have to brag about" Abe Nobuyobu said something and gave everyone a shot in the arm.
Everyone here obviously has a better spirit.
"However, it is a fact that the population and land of the empire are inferior to China.
It is a fact that China's military forces are significantly greater than those of the Empire.
Therefore, the conquest of China is a long war.
Moreover, in the process, we must strengthen the ideology of the people in the areas controlled by the empire, and only by assimilating the people of China can we conquer the country as the Manchus, who controlled a huge empire with such a small number.
What the Manchus could do, so could the empire" "In the same way, it took decades for the Manchus to take control of this once powerful empire" "So, Your Majesty, colleagues, please don't be discouraged, this war has just begun, but, don't be proud, because, our opponent has slowly awakened, no nation will dare to be silent in the case of foreign invaders, as long as it is a war, there will be victories and losses, even if a wise man like Zhuge Kongming in the Three Kingdoms period has failed several Northern Expeditions" "So, Abe-kun, next, how should the empire respond" Emperor Showa was also much calmer at this time, indeed, as the leader of a country, he should not doubt himself so much, and he should not be proud of everything.
"Your Majesty, I remember that the German Empire once sent us a telegram reminding us that we should shrink our forces and focus on defense."
"Are you really going to give up some places" Emperor Showa obviously didn't want to give up.
"No, Your Majesty, it's not about giving up, it's just about defense," Abe said, "We have taken the key cities of the Shina people, for example, Wuhan, and we will focus on defense in Wuhan."
Today, Wuhan is at the forefront of the face of the Chinese army.
According to the intelligence, the national army of China has begun to prepare for the battle of the plan to counterattack Wuhan, we must fight beautifully, let the people of China see, the strength of the empire As for some other irrelevant places, no matter how much the people of China take back, it is useless" Obviously, Nobuyuki Abe's words made everyone feel much better, and they also gave everyone a beating.
"The empire is no longer undefeated, at least, in terms of tactical deduction, we must count the troops of the independent division, because this is an unpredictable change, but it is precisely because of defeat that the empire will become stronger and stronger."
"Aligado, Abe-kun" Emperor Showa was also full of fighting spirit at this time, "Yo Xi, then, let's give a plan, focus on defending those cities, how to connect the supply lines of these defensive cities" "Hi":
