The first thousand one hundred and seventy-eight chapters restart the negotiation
Su Zongzhe was silent. Tu Menghu's words were very sudden. The suddenness of Tu Menghu caught him off guard, but if he thought about it carefully, it was not impossible to do so.
It's very simple. The United States does have a large number of tugboats and manufacturing capabilities. As long as they are willing to assist, they can indeed raise the Yamato. Of course, this requires time and a safe environment.
These two things are about to be realized in Fukuoka. Japan has announced that it hopes to negotiate. Simply put, the war with Japan is about to end.
After Japan surrendered, this sea area naturally belonged to the National Defense Forces. Safety was not a problem. The Yamato sank several hours after being bombarded by various types.
Although the speed dropped in the middle and the Japanese navy on board the warship evacuated, the warship still sailed into the Fukuoka Inland Sea, where the water depth is not as deep as the outer sea.
On the one hand, this also provides the possibility of salvage. Of course, whether it can be fished out will have to be calculated at the time. It will also have to be explored after diving.
"If the United States assists, it is not impossible to salvage it..." Su Zongzhe pondered for a while and said: "But it is not cost-effective after all! I estimate that this battleship has been sunk and has little use.
What are you doing to salvage it?!"
Tu Menghu was silent for a while after hearing this, and then smiled helplessly.
"Just think of it as my willfulness!" But Tu Menghu stood up and said to Su Zongzhe: "Actually, after I learned that the Dingyuan was turned into a hotel by the Japanese, I have always had a knot in my heart...
"
"They salvaged our warships that were dominant in Asia back then, and even made them into masterpieces to show off! I can't bear this tone..."
Tu Menghu's eyes flashed coldly, and he said coldly: "Actually, before Uncle Cheng Zhang mentioned this matter, I already had this plan in my mind, but I gave up because it would consume too much..."
"But now that the Americans have begged us, it gives us hope that we can salvage it!" As he said that, Tu Menghu laughed and said: "Even if this battleship is useless, I will salvage it. Even if it is
I can’t salvage everything, but at least I have to salvage part of it!”
"In the future we will build a naval museum, and we will tell our descendants how much shame our soldiers avenged! We will tell them that whoever humiliates us will humiliate us back! If they dare to throw shit at us, we will
Just hit their faces with shit!"
Su Zongzhe stroked his forehead helplessly, okay! Even if Tu Mengben has been the commander-in-chief of the National Defense Forces for many years, even if he has led millions of troops for many years.
But the nature in his bones has not changed at all. Even if the Japanese gave him a shot, he would still return it with an axe. The tiger nature he was born with was fully revealed.
"Uncle Qi Liu, don't think what I did was wrong. In fact, what I did was the most correct thing!" Tu Menghu laughed and said: "We have only risen in a short time. If we want to establish the prestige of our country, we can only rely on our fists."
.”
"Whoever provokes us will be beaten to the ground! Otherwise, everyone will treat you as a fool and bully you. Only if you beat more people will everyone respect you. Even if they don't respect your country, at least
They respect your fist."
As Tu Menghu said this, he walked slowly to the window and looked at the bustling crowd outside. After a while, he said to Su Zongzhe behind him.
"The concession of the strong will be regarded as charity. The concession of the weak can only be regarded as weakness. Even if the strong takes three steps back, the enemy may not dare to take one step forward. And the weak, even if you do not retreat, they will still want to
I have to take three or five steps towards you! This is the truth of the world. The truth only depends on the size of your fist, not your character."
Tu Menghu thought of Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan in later generations. Yes, the United States finally retreated. But does anyone think this is a weakness of the United States?!
No, no one will think that the United States is weak. Because they have smashed the shit out of all those small countries with their fists countless times. Similarly, Russia shows no signs of backing down in South Ossetia.
But Georgia suddenly launched an attack, even thinking of rushing into Russia in one step and two steps at a time. They believed that Russia was weak, and they believed that Russia had lost its former strength.
It's a pity that they saw it wrong. Emperor Vladimir Putin almost overturned Georgia completely with a punch and a kick. The Russians finally withdrew, but left a message to the Georgians.
"Dear Georgian comrades, please study the art of war seriously. We will come back and test you again. 71st Motorized Infantry Regiment."
The Humvees that were staying at the Black Sea port of Poti in Georgia to participate in the Perfect Military Exercise were about to be transported back to China, and they became trophies of the Russians. In response, White House spokesman John Dro said that if Russia seized any U.S. military equipment in Georgia,
equipment, Russia should return these equipment immediately.
Russia's response was... no response.
"Sailing the Yamato is not just a memorial to the navy. It is not just a warning to future generations. More importantly, we want to tell those who try to take advantage of us in the future..."
Tu Menghu smiled, the white teeth on his lips felt cold.
"If you want to make a decision, you have to be prepared to die and destroy your family." Tu Menghu smiled, so coldly. Even Su Zongzhe beside him felt a chill in his body.
"Japan...just set an example! Use him to tell those bastards that if they want to take advantage of us, they have to be prepared to have our red-hot tiger penetrated their assholes!"
Okay, Su Zongzhe shrugged his shoulders. If you do this, it is also a good choice.
At this time, Xiyuan Temple also received a reply from the National Defense Forces. Yang Yuting and Su Zongzhe signed together, agreeing that Japan would restart negotiations. Before the negotiations broke down, the two sides temporarily ceased fire.
During the ceasefire, once the Japanese army launched an attack on the National Defense Forces, the National Defense Forces would break the ceasefire and terminate negotiations and continue the attack. When receiving this notice, Saionji's face turned dark.
The meaning of the joint government and the National Defense Force is very clear. If we are not satisfied with this negotiation, we can launch another attack at any time. As for the reason... isn't that simple?! The Japanese can just attack us.
As for whether it was a sneak attack, it doesn't matter. Anyway, on Japanese soil, even if a dog barks twice at the National Defense Forces, they have the right to claim that the Akita dog was ordered by the Japanese army to launch an attack on the National Defense Forces.
"This negotiation is extremely important to the empire! If the negotiation fails, everyone must know what the empire will face..."
Suzuki Kantaro looked at the cabinet members in the conference room and said with great solemnity: "Here, Suzuki would also like to ask everyone to restrain those radicals and never take any action at this time..."
Army Minister Anami's expression remained unchanged after hearing this, but his heart was already a little twitching. Although Suzuki Kantaro did not say it explicitly, he knew very well who he was secretly referring to.
On the night when Hirohito decided to hold surrender negotiations, his brother-in-law, military affairs instructor Masahiko Takeshita, brought five radical officers to his home.
During this meeting, several people proposed to him the so-called "force mobilization plan." The implementation plan of this plan was to use the emergency dispatch power of troops in local areas that the Minister of War had when he was on alert to launch a coup.
The coup mobilized the troops of the Eastern Army and the Guards Division. Immediately after its launch, Suzuki Kantaro, Interior Minister Kido Koichi, Togo Shigetori, Yoneuchi Mitsumasa, etc., the main peacemakers, were isolated from the palace.
Martial law was subsequently implemented throughout Tokyo, and negotiations would continue until the conditions for defending the national system were guaranteed.
To be honest, this plan is very tempting. At least Anan Weiji cannot deny that he was extremely tempted when he heard this plan. If troops were used to detain all the peace factions and insist on negotiations.
So this plan did have a chance to be realized, but Anami soon calmed down. Hirohito directly expressed his wish, which was extremely rare in imperial meetings.
All support from the military comes from the authority of Hirohito. No one knows better than him what will happen once Hirohito comes forward and expresses that he does not support this coup.
The 226 was once launched because Hirohito personally expressed his disapproval. In the end, those who initiated it could only be wiped out. Therefore, Anami Weiji did not express his support clearly.
But he did not express any direct objection, only saying that he needed to think about it. As for how long he would consider it, he did not give an answer.
"If the negotiation fails, we will discuss other ways to deal with it. But before the negotiation fails, I don't want anything to stop this negotiation..." Suzuki Kantaro glanced at the crowd and said: "This is also your Majesty's
I hope you will obey your will!"
"Hai..." Everyone responded and bowed slightly. But what they were thinking in their hearts was unknown.
After the cabinet meeting, Saionji embarked on a journey to Fukuoka. This time he had no military personnel with him, and Hirohito personally decided that soldiers from the base camp were not allowed to participate in the negotiations.
Those who were sent were all members of the cabinet's Ministry of Education. Privy Council President Hiranuma Kiichiro was ordered to go with Saionji. The last bit of coal drove the train slowly towards Fukuoka.
Along the way, Saionji couldn't help but burst into tears looking at Japan that had been bombed by the National Defense Forces. He never thought that Japan would be like this. Some time ago, the air raids by the National Defense Forces bombed almost all transportation hubs in Japan.
Tokyo was the focus of air raids, and even the Imperial Palace was bombed several times. This was why Hirohito made up his mind and demanded that he surrender as long as the status of the imperial family was guaranteed.
