The reason why Island Nation is as powerful as it is now is entirely based on the victory of two wars. After winning two wars in which Island Nation's national affairs were bets, Island Nation gained huge war dividends.
However, if this war is lost, it is conceivable that Island Nation's rise will be completely interrupted. In fact, they will decline again and become the slaves of West powers.
Therefore, these Island Nation military generals and those politicians are absolutely unwilling to Island Nation fail in this war.
Although, this war was blocked by Island Nation's national destiny. However, they hope to win, so that the entire Southeast Asia can be included in their rule. Island Nation will therefore once again get the opportunity to take off.
"No matter what, we must win this battle." General Yashiro Rokuro said.
"Yes, we must win this battle!" Admiral Shimamura Hayao also said.
"However, I'm afraid the navy has no way to fight against German Navy. Even if Combined Fleet tries his best, he is still no match for them." Admiral Ijūin Gorō was a little worried.
"The current situation of the navy is like this. Cabinet can't let us commit suicide! When Expeditionary Fleet of German Navy arrives, we will retreat to the military port, and the Germany people will have nothing to do with us." Admiral Shimamura Hayao suggested.
"Well, this is a good idea. Or we can sneak attack the transport ships of the Germany people. After they come all the way, if there is a problem with the transport ship, the consequences will be quite serious. Maybe the Germany people, without fuel, shells, food and clean water, may surrender to us. In this case, Imperial Navy can not only win a big victory, but also use this opportunity to further strengthen our strength. Those Battlecruiser people of Germany are all powerful and excellent warships!" General Yashiro Rokuro said excitedly, as if the strategy they were considering would definitely succeed.
Admiral Ijūin Gorō's eyes are also shining. If he can capture the nine Battlecruisers of German Navy, this will make Island Nation Navy's strength become a powerful navy second only to German Navy. With American Navy's strength severely damaged, they could even dominate Pacific Ocean. When he thought of this, Admiral Ijūin Gorō was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
"Report! Your Excellency General, Prime Minister please go to Prime Minister's residence for a meeting immediately." the secretary reported.
"Well, go prepare the car, I'll go right away." General Yashiro Rokuro nodded.
"Yes, Your Excellency General." The secretary left immediately to get ready.
"Probably they are discussing how to deal with the Germany people. Yashiro, no matter what, the navy cannot fight head-on with the Germany people. In that case, we have no chance of winning. We Only by conserving our strength and attacking the Germany people's transport ship can we have a chance of winning. The navy has finally reached its current scale and we cannot let the army's dungeons trap us." Admiral Ijūin Gorō said.
General Yashiro Rokuro nodded. "Don't worry, I know what to do!"
When General Yashiro Rokuro arrived at Prime Minister's residence, the other four phases in Five Cabinet Ministers had already arrived. At the same time, General Army Chief of Staff Hasegawa Yoshimichi also attended this meeting.
"Yashiro, I'm waiting for you!" Prime Minister Okuma Shigenobu said.
"Hi, I'm sorry, Prime Minister, I'm late for my humble duty." General Yashiro Rokuro apologized immediately.
"No, you're not late, it's still early. It's just that everyone arrived early, so the meeting will start early!" Okuma Shigenobu said.
"Hi!" General Yashiro Rokuro nodded.
"Everyone, according to the news we have received so far, Germany's Expeditionary Fleet has entered Indian Ocean. It is expected that in another half a month, it will arrive at Southeast Asia. It will not be long before it will directly arrive at the sea near the Empire. Germany's Expeditionary Fleet is coming menacingly. How should Empire deal with it this time?" Okuma Shigenobu asked.
Everyone's eyes fell on General Yashiro Rokuro. After all, this time the Germany people sent the navy. Then, it is naturally up to the Navy to deal with it.
"Prime Minister, we have analyzed the strength of German Navy Expeditionary Fleet. We have to admit that German Navy Expeditionary Fleet is very powerful, far above Imperial Navy. Even if Imperial Navy is added up, it is no match for German Navy Expeditionary Fleet. If he fights German Navy Expeditionary Fleet head-on, Imperial Navy will definitely lose," General Yashiro Rokuro said. Although I personally admit that it is not as good as German Navy Expeditionary Fleet, this seems a bit too embarrassing. But now is not the time to act heroic. The most important thing is to preserve the strength of the navy as much as possible.
"Cowards! Don't you even have the courage to fight against German Navy Expeditionary Fleet?" Army Minister Okashi no Suke looked sarcastic.
"Knowing that the enemy is very powerful, but still attacking them with eggs is the behavior of a reckless man. Only you army horse dung would do that!" General Yashiro Rokuro counterattacked.
Suddenly, Oka Ichinosuke and Yashiro Rokuro seemed to be having a heated argument again.
"Okay, you all should be quiet!" Okuma Shigenobu said angrily.
Only then did Oka Ichinosuke and Yashiro Rokuro stop.
"You are all Empire's most important ministers. Now is Empire's most critical moment. If you don't have the strength to argue here, you might as well think about how to deal with the Germany people. The Germany people are coming this time. If you can't defeat them, the consequences will be very serious!" Okuma Shigenobu said.
"Prime Minister, the army is ready for battle. We have dispatched ten additional divisions and more than 200,000 people to Southeast Asia. If the Germany people dare to come, I We can definitely defeat them and let them know how powerful the imperial army is. But it is a pity that the Germany people only sent the navy this time, not the army at all." Oka Ichinosuke looked disappointed.
"The Germany people seem to be focusing their main energy on the war against British mainland. That's why they did not send the army. However, the Germany people are still strong and we cannot underestimate them." Foreign Minister Kato Takaaki also said.
"Yashiro, is there really no way for the navy to deal with the Germany people's Expeditionary Fleet? When the Germany people do not send an army, as long as If Imperial Navy can defeat German Navy, we will win." Finance Minister Wakatsuki Reijiro looked at General Yashiro Rokuro with hope.
