Iron Germany

In just half an hour, the sea was full of broken planks and island sailors who fell into the sea. Under the attack of the destroyers of the German Navy Expeditionary Fleet, those merchant ships were unlucky and were all sunk, and none of them escaped.

"General, it's over." Major General Mao Fu reported to Lieutenant General Spei.

While the destroyers of the German Navy Expeditionary Fleet slaughtered the merchant ships of these island countries, Lieutenant General Spee has been watching with cold eyes. His heart seemed to have turned into a heart of stone.

"Command the fleet to continue northward, and we will fight all the way to Tokyo!" Lieutenant General Spei ordered. He wants to use this method to force the navy of the island country to leave the port for a decisive battle.

"Yes, General." Major General Mao Fu nodded.

Subsequently, the German naval expeditionary fleet continued north along the coastline of the island country, and all the merchant ships and fishing boats found along the way were also sunk. After the fleet circled the Bungo Channel, they did not enter the Seto Inland Sea, but headed north along Tosa Bay. Although the Seto Inland Sea is the industrial and economic center of the island country, shipping is well developed. However, the sea area there is narrow and the water depth is relatively shallow. The navy of the island country can easily lay traps with mines in it. If you are not careful, the German naval expedition fleet will pay a heavy price there.

Therefore, Lieutenant General Spei, who was familiar with the situation in the Far East Sea, resisted the temptation to break into the Seto Inland Sea and massacre, and went directly north. Anyway, he has already made up his mind. If the navy of the island country continues to be a turtle, he will order the bombardment of the coastal cities of the island country, causing unimaginable losses to the island country.

"What should I do? What should I do now? Damn the Germans, they are so barbaric! In the past few days, they have sunk more than a hundred merchant ships and fishing boats. The cabinet has become a mess It's gone." Admiral Yatsushiro Rokuro, Minister of the Navy of the island country, was dejected.

"The Germans' move is really vicious! They did this clearly to force us to fight them. If we go to sea to fight them, it will be in their hands." Admiral Hayao Shimamura said.

"However, how should the cabinet respond? That guy Okashinosuke jumped up and down, wanting us to fight the Germans. Those guys in the army, if they don't drive us to death, they won't let it go. Don't they know, if The navy was wiped out by the Germans, isn't it good for the empire?" General Ijuin Goro said with a dark face. The actions of the German Navy's expeditionary fleet put him, the commander of the joint fleet, under great pressure.

"No matter what, we can't go to sea to fight the Germans. In that case, it will be quite disadvantageous to us! Our current strength is simply not enough to fight against them. If we fight rashly, we will lose ugly." Shimamura General Xiong said.

"Yes, if the United Fleet and the German Navy's expeditionary fleet are in a decisive battle, we have no chance of winning. The only result is to be wiped out by the German expeditionary fleet." Admiral Ijuin Goro looked very pessimistic.

There is no way, how could there be a chance of winning when the performance of one's own warship is far inferior to that of the opponent, and the quality of officers and soldiers is also far inferior to that of the opponent?

"Okay, I will try my best to deal with them in the cabinet. If it is not possible, the only way is to keep merchant ships and fishing boats from going out to sea as much as possible. Damn Germans, one day we will make them pay the price!" General Yatsushiro Rokuro cursed.

Faced with the massacre of the German Navy's expeditionary fleet, the island country had no choice but to order merchant ships and fishing boats to stay in port as much as possible not to go to sea. However, merchant ships can stay in the port for shelter, but what about fishing boats? If those fishermen don't fish, the family can only drink northwest wind!

The German navy traveled northward along the coastline of the island country, sinking countless merchant ships and fishing boats from the island country. This also makes the coastal areas of the island country jittery, and the vegetation is full of soldiers. Some wealthy people even fled directly to the countryside for refuge.

Angry people surrounded the cabinet and the Admiralty, accusing them of letting the Germans slaughter them wantonly, while the government and navy remained silent and did not dare to resist. This has put the island government and navy under a lot of pressure. Even those middle and lower level officers are very dissatisfied with this. You know, the island nation has always had a tradition of lowering the upper limit!

These angry people seem to have forgotten how happy and how happy they were when the island country expanded its territory in the east, as if a good day was coming soon. But it's a pity that they haven't enjoyed the good life yet, but the disaster came first.

"Yachidai-kun, listen to how angry the people outside are. If this continues, I'm afraid they will rush into the prime minister's office soon. At that time, I will not only apologize to His Majesty the Emperor, but also ask for my resignation. , There is no other way at all!" Prime Minister Okuma Shigenobu's face was livid.

General Yatsushiro Rokuro's face was also very ugly. He could clearly hear those guys outside shouting Heavenly Execution ****. These people who are dedicated to serving the country have actually become prostitutes. This is simply the greatest mystery in the world!

"Your Excellency, the Germans did this to force us to go to sea to fight. The United Fleet has no chance of winning at all. If we go to sea to fight the Germans, we will lose very ugly! Even the United Fleet has the entire army The danger of being overwhelmed. Once the combined fleet is severely damaged or even annihilated, our efforts over the years will be in vain. Without the support of the navy, the army can only defend the mainland." Admiral Yatsushiro Rokuro reminded.

"Yatsushiro-kun, I know what you said, and I can understand it. However, the pressure from the government is really great now!" Okuma Shigenobu sighed. He is not a short-sighted person, so he naturally knows what to do. It's just that the huge pressure now makes him a little bit battered.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, for the sake of the future of the empire, please bear with me!" General Yatsushiro Rokuro bowed heavily to Okuma Shigenobu.

Okuma Shigenobu nodded: "Okay, Yatsushiro-kun, I will try my best to appease the people. However, you must also actively think of a way. If the situation deteriorates further, the consequences will be very serious. I am afraid, I can't suppress it." How long will you stay. The Germans are coming to Tokyo, and we don't have much time left."

"Hi, Your Excellency the Prime Minister." General Yatsushiro Rokuro nodded.
