Meeting of the Japanese Cabinet.

Prime Minister Inu Yangyi, who has always been extremely self-contained, couldn't help but be furious.

Slapping the table and shouting: "The imperial army has once again suffered a crushing defeat at Wusongkou, and there has never been such a crushing defeat since the founding of the Meiji Emperor's army. "

"More than 20,000 imperial warriors have broken Wu Songkou, and the face of the empire has been lost to you, shouldn't your military give me an explanation?"

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, rest angry!" War Minister Sadao Araki said cautiously: "This incident is just an accident!"

"Accident?"

Inuyang Yi sneered and said, "Could it be that in the face of His Majesty the Emperor, you will only use such a clumsy excuse to prevaricate?"

Sadao Araki hurriedly said, "Don't dare to be humble. "

"Humph!"

Inu Yangyi snorted coldly, trembling with anger, and said, "His Majesty the Emperor already knows the news, and he is extremely angry. "

"His Majesty the Emperor has issued an edict asking our cabinet and the military department to come up with a proper plan to resolve the Shanghai incident as soon as possible. "

"Your Ministers obey!"

Inu Yangyi frowned and said, "Then how do you plan to solve the Shanghai incident?

Sadao Araki glanced up at the Minister of the Navy, Otkaku Censheng, and saw that this old guy's face was also extremely unsightly.

Although it was the army that was defeated this time, their navy did not reap the benefits, even if the big horn Cen Sheng was a little gloating in his heart, he did not dare to show it at this time.

After all, they have killed so many people this time, and it is not only their army that has lost face, but the entire Japanese country.

Sadao Araki was relieved to see that Okakku Sensheng had no intention of taking advantage of the fire to rob.

Then he said: "Your Excellency, this defeat is caused by our underestimation of the strength of the Huaxia army. "

"The strength of the Huaxia army is far beyond our imagination, so people think that we must continue to send more troops to the Shanghai area in order to completely solve the Shanghai incident and save the face of the imperial army. "

As soon as Sadao Araki's words fell, Finance Minister Takahashi Seiki spoke: "The economic crisis that has spread around the world has dealt a great blow to the imperial economy. At present, the empire's finances are tight, and if it continues to send more troops, it may be difficult to come up with enough funds to support this war. "

Sadao Araki couldn't help but change his complexion, and said unhappily: "The soldiers of the Imperial Army, desperately trying their lives to expand the territory of the empire, aren't they just to relieve the pressure caused by the economic crisis? "

Takahashi Shiqing said: "I confess this truth, last year, the imperial army had captured Manchuria, for which the empire paid a lot of military spending, but now after half a year, the imperial army has not even recovered the capital." The financial pressure is already great, and I really can't come up with too much money to pay for your military expenses. "

"I don't suggest that if you provoke trouble in Shanghai, the empire has just occupied Manchuria, so you should first develop in a low-key manner, and when Manchuria is thoroughly digested, it is not too late to seek China, but your military is really too anxious. "

Sadao Araki frowned and said: "The Shanghai Incident is a matter of imperial honor, is it possible that we will stop there, then what is the face of the empire? Even if the empire's finances are not rich, it can't even be able to take out this money! "

"If they stop there, it will undoubtedly boost the arrogance of the Chinese people, and then they may really counterattack Manchuria, and the imperial army will not be at peace in Manchuria at that time. "

"You studied economics, you don't know strategy at all. When we attack Shanghai, we do not want to occupy Shanghai. And it's just a show of force to Huaxia, and let them know that the power of our Great Wa Empire is something they absolutely can't provoke. "

In this way, the Chinese people will not be clamoring to resist the Japanese and recovering Manchuria all day long. And we can also take this opportunity to force the Chinese government authorities to acquiesce in the status quo in Manchuria. "

"In this way, we can eat the fat of Manchuria with peace of mind. "

Okaku Cen Sheng, who had never spoken, suddenly said: "What Araki-kun said is extremely true, the Shanghai incident is not only related to the face of the empire, but also related to the interests of the imperial army in Manchuria. "

"Now we have not achieved our goal, if we stop here, it will only fuel the arrogance of the Chinese people, so that the empire will fall into an even more unfavorable situation. "

"So even if it's a little more difficult now, we're going to grit our teeth and get through. As long as we are given a few years to develop, Manchuria will become a second Korea, and this land is even richer than North Korea, and as long as there is enough time to develop, its development potential will be far greater than that of North Korea. "

"At that time, the empire will be more powerful than ever, and it will be impossible to dominate the world. "

Inu Yangyi waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about the matter of Shanghai first! This matter is about the face of the empire, and at this point, we have no choice." "

"Araki-kun, how many troops does your army plan to send to reinforce Shanghai?"

Sadao Araki hurriedly said, "Our War Department has discussed it overnight and made a detailed plan. "

"According to our judgment, the Huaxia government does not have the courage to go to war with the empire in an all-out way, otherwise they would not have sent only one Fifth Army to reinforce Shanghai. "

"In view of this, we believe that we only need to send two more divisions and regiments, send another batch of aircraft, and send some more warships from the navy to assist in cooperating, so that the Shanghai incident can be completely resolved. "

Inu Yangyi nodded and said: "Huaxia's newspapers and foreign media have repeatedly claimed that the Huaxia army has completely annihilated our 9th Division, which is a matter of the face of the empire, and we absolutely cannot admit it. "

"So the strength of the 9th Division should be replenished as soon as possible, so that it can be convincing. "

"What Your Excellency the Prime Minister said is that our army has issued an urgent recruitment order, ordering the 9th Division to stay behind and immediately rush to Shanghai to replenish the losses of the 9th Division. Sadao Araki said hurriedly.

Once the war breaks out, there will definitely be casualties among the troops, and at this time, the reservists of the left-behind corps will be recruited to supplement the front-line troops.

Inu Yangyi nodded and said: "In this way, the army is dispatching three divisions and regiments, and the navy is dispatching a group of warships to cooperate, which should be enough." "
