"The Japanese combined fleet has set off."
Wen Desi looked at the information in front of him and couldn't help but be speechless.
Minister of National Security Wang Qi replied: "Yes, Mr.
Wen, they weighed anchor at 8 a.m.
Tokyo time today, and the Japanese government also organized a grand farewell ceremony.
They did not leave the port and were under our surveillance.
This Along the way, our naval and air forces will monitor their whereabouts.
As long as they are still within our sphere of influence, the surveillance will not stop until they leave our sphere of control."
"I really didn't expect that the Japanese worked really hard to earn this hard-earned money."
Wen Desi sighed, and couldn't help but think of Japan's performance in World War I in the original time and space.
Under the flapping wings of Wen Desi, the wind god pterosaur, the history of this plane has changed beyond recognition.
In the original time and space, Japan took advantage of World War I.
Germany's power in the Far East was very limited.
Under the attack of the Japanese and British coalition forces, these colonies declared acceptance of control without resistance, and the largest maritime power of the German army in the Far East was The "East Asia Fleet" was also annihilated by the British Navy near the Falkland Islands at the end of 1915.
Japan got a big piece of the pie with basically no effort, occupying all of Germany's colonies in the Pacific and the Qingdao concession in China.
The Japanese Navy was even more relaxed.
Except for a fight with Er Dezi during the Battle of Qingdao, it basically went on armed parades and went through the motions at other times.
It was not until March 1917 that Japan officially dispatched an escort fleet to Europe, with the armored cruiser "Akashi" as the flagship and eight destroyers attached.
Later, several cruisers and a dozen destroyers were added, but except for the newer destroyers, the cruisers were all old warships.
As for the King Kong-class battle cruisers that Britain strongly requested to participate in the war, I'm sorry, we don't have enough of them ourselves.
As well as sending the army to Europe to participate in the war, it is even more unthinkable.
However, Japan is not so relaxed on this level.
After they were beaten violently by China, the wealth accumulated in the decades since the Meiji Restoration, the fruits of generations of hard work, and the results of several bets on the national destiny have all been lost in these few years.
The sky turned into ashes one after another.
These direct and indirect losses have caused a serious decline in Japan's domestic economy, and it is in urgent need of large sums of funds to stabilize the market and be used for reconstruction work.
In order to obtain large sums of funds from Britain and France, human lives and troops must be exchanged.
It is understandable to send Army horse manure to Europe to fill trenches, or to various British and French colonies to suppress the indigenous people.
Anyway, horse manure is worthless, a life is only worth ten cents, just the price of a postcard.
But now Japan is actually willing to send out the navy, which they regard as their lifeblood, which is indeed a bit surprising.
To be honest, Wen Desi never expected that the Japanese would work so hard.
Their combined fleet had just recovered part of its strength, and they were actually willing to drag them all to Europe.
You must know that their trip is not only to escort, but also to undertake the task of fighting the main force of the Allied Navy.
"Is there any new trend in Japan's navy now?"
Mr.
Wen asked.
Wang Qi answered fluently: "According to our intelligence, Japan is accelerating the construction of Nagato and Mutsu.
It is expected that they will be launched into the water and enter the outfitting stage as soon as the end of this year and as late as February next year.
In addition, in addition to these two Nagato-class battleships, Key projects and other ships under construction will also be accelerated.
This is a requirement of the Allied Powers.
According to statistics, the main ships under construction in Japan include four Myo-class heavy cruisers, six Nagara-class light cruisers, and five Minekaze-class destroyers. , ten Kamikaze 2-class destroyers" After a pause, he continued: "Mr.
Wen, the latest intelligence we have received indicates that Japan will start construction of two Kaga-class fast battleships next year.
There will also be a Ryūjō aircraft carrier, four cruisers and twenty destroyers. " "In addition, Japan is currently expanding and building docks and shipyards on a large scale, and recruiting a large number of workers.
According to internal reports in Japan, this is also done at the request of the Allied Powers.
Now the Allied Powers need a large number of escort ships and merchant ships.

They The plan is to let Japan take on a large part of the construction task."
After listening, Wen Desi was silent for a while and then said: "Haha, I didn't expect that this war would be beneficial to Japan.
So many construction tasks are enough to stimulate substantial economic growth.
In addition, the advanced technologies transferred by Britain and France , which can save them at least ten or even twenty years of research and development time.”
Wang Qi nodded and said: "That's true.
The 410mm main gun technology of their Nagato-class battleships was developed based on the 15-inch naval gun technology provided by the UK.
There are also large marine turbines and high-pressure boilers.
It was done based on technology provided by Britain and France.”
"It seems like they still made some money after being beaten like this by us the year before last."
Mr.
Wen frowned with some reluctance and said, "How is the work of Bei Yihui and the others going?"
"Our revolutionary export in Japan is progressing quite smoothly.
Although Japan's economic situation has greatly improved in recent years with the financial support of the Allied Powers, even surpassing it before the Sino-Japanese War in some areas, the beneficiaries are all the upper class of society. , the lower-class civilians, who account for the vast majority of the population, are still living in poverty.
According to Kitaki and his colleagues, at least 50% of the population in Japan are still hungry and cold.
Struggle online.
Therefore, our work is going very smoothly.
Kita Yihui and his Youth Japan Association are now developing rapidly, with more than 20,000 official members, among workers, farmers, soldiers, as well as middle and lower-level officers, intellectuals and some members of society.
Among the middle-class people, there are a considerable number of supporters and sympathizers, and they have won the sympathy and support of some enlightened people in the upper class.”
Wen Deji smiled and said: "That's good.
We must pay attention to protecting the safety of the backbones such as Kitai Ikki and Miyazaki Toten.
In addition, we must remind them that now is not the time to cause trouble, so don't act rashly.
Japan The government is now very wary of socialist trends, and their young Japanese will For the time being, it is not appropriate to show off one's banner publicly.
We should still operate as a non-governmental mutual aid organization.
It is better to select organizational personnel and backbones in secret, and in a point-to-point manner.
Their most important task now is to improve the organizational structure and cultivate more backbones and cadres to strengthen their influence on young students and the military.”
Wen Desi spoke eloquently for more than ten minutes and made important instructions and arrangements for the construction of the Japanese revolutionary organization.
Wang Qi quickly turned on his handheld computer and recorded all Mr.
Wen's words.
It wasn't until Wen Desi finished speaking that Wang Qi replied: "Yes, Mr.
Wen, I will convey all your words to Bei Yihui and the others, and strengthen the security work of their organization's backbone."
Wen Deji thought for a while and said: "The funds over there can also be increased.
Don't be stingy about this kind of thing.
Let's set it at 4 million yen per month for the time being.
As before, through the British Godzilla Foundation, The Japanese branches of the American Zentraedi Foundation and other institutions should not pay the money centrally in one place, but should disperse it and give it to them with decent excuses, so that the Japanese government cannot discover it.”
"Yes, Mr.
Wen.
Bei Yihui already has a plan.
They are going to let some of the backbones of the organization come forward with legal identities to open or acquire several hotels, factories, farms and schools.
This will not only facilitate the entry and exit of funds and materials, but also have a place for training staff and gatherings”
"Well, Bei Yihui is indeed a smart man.
This is very good."
Wen Desi expressed his approval.
"They must not be familiar with this aspect yet.
Your people need more guidance."
After arranging things in Japan, Mr.

Wen asked with a half-smile: "By the way, are the German submarines still enough?"
Ryukyu waters.
"Buzzing buzzing" accompanied by a roar of engines, a Shuihong 1 "Lionhead Goose" water bombing patrol aircraft belonging to the China Pacific Fleet emerged from the clouds.
"Damn it, what do these little devils want to do with such a big family coming out?"
Observer Yang Tianwei looked at the Japanese fleet on the sea with the eight-fold telescope on the aircraft and couldn't help but cursed.
Captain Wang Xingren smiled and said: "Yangzai, you have to watch carefully.
We are monitoring them."
Yang Tianwei replied: "Lao Wang, don't worry.
I have all these warships of the little devil imprinted in my mind.
I can't go wrong."
He raised his telescope and looked around, and suddenly shouted: "Hey, the oil tanker Shiretoko, the oil tanker Ejo, and the water supply ship Mamiya, there are such a lot of logistics ships, it seems they are about to go out."
It’s far away” "Oh, the scale is quite large.
Didn't the little devil pull out all the belongings?"
The pilot Ren Zhenzhi also glanced at the sea and said with some surprise.
"Let me take a look."
Yang Tianwei leaned over the telescope and looked carefully.
Ren Zhenzhi also controlled the plane to hover over the Japanese fleet.
"Damn it, there are two Ise-class and two Fuso-class battleships, as well as the Hosho aircraft carrier, the Notoro seaplane carrier, two Furutaka-class heavy cruisers, two Aoba-class heavy cruisers, and those two That is a Tianlong-class light cruiser.
There are five Kuma-class light cruisers on the side.
If I take a closer look at those destroyers, there are four Urakaze-class, four Isokaze-class, four Ekaze-class, and fifteen Minekaze-class destroyers.
Their whole family really came out," Yang Tianwei exclaimed.
Wang Xingren also became nervous.
He quickly observed with another telescope: "The main guns have been plugged, and the anti-aircraft guns are covered with gun jackets.
It doesn't look like they belong to his second master who is looking for trouble.
What do the little devils and the others want to do?"
Yang Tianwei shouted again: "That fleet to the east is oh, it's our fleet.
Our fleet is coming.
I saw the Sun Wu and the Jiang Shang.
Oh, oh, and our plane is also coming.
It's the J-5 , the emblem is from the 24th Squadron, haha, the H-3 is also here, the H-3 from the 17th Squadron."
At this moment, looking from the sky, the two fleets on the sea are sailing side by side.
At this time, the two fleets are about ten kilometers apart, and the larger fleet is accelerating towards the other side.
At this time, it was not only the crew members on the Shuihong 1 who felt nervous, but also the officers and soldiers on the Japanese fleet
