Regarding the wolfish ambitions of the Japanese pirates, I am afraid that only Shen Hao in the entire Beiyang knows best.

The little devils not only want to occupy Qingdao, but also want to use this as a foundation to slowly encroach on the whole country.

However, Yuan Datou did not support Shen Hao, which made him feel aggrieved.

So, he couldn't care about that much anymore, and Shen Hao took the warship directly back to eastern Guangdong.

On Shen Hao's way back to eastern Guangdong, the little devil announced the war.

On August 23, the deadline for the Little Japanese ultimatum expired, but the Germans did not surrender, so the Little Japanese officially declared war on Germany and began to attack Qingdao.

When he returned to eastern Guangdong, Shen Hao summoned Zhao Gang, Chu Yunfei, Li Yunlong, Kong Jie, Ding Wei, Jiang Daya and Zhou Weiguo.

Several people gathered together.

Shen Hao said without any nonsense:"Now, the European war is about to begin.

The German garrison in Qingdao is isolated and helpless, and Japan wants to take the opportunity to capture Qingdao.

A war between the two sides is about to break out.

This scene has happened in the Northeast before.

The little devil made a desperate move and went up The second Sino-Japanese War, the second time it was Northeastern Soviet Russia, and this time it was Japan and Germany. It must be said that the little devil had the spirit of a desperate Saburo, and he seized the opportunity to rise rapidly.

Now a small Japan actually Dare to blockade the entire Yangtze River Basin, it is really too much to bully others.

Yuan Datou can endure it, and the Beiyang government can tolerate it, all because of concerns.

Tell me, what are the chances of success in declaring war against Japan?

Will other countries join the war?"

Li Yunlong was even more worried. Angrily, he slammed the table and said:"Damn, fuck that son of a bitch. The little devil is so arrogant. Although it's not easy to fight, you still have to fuck him. Don't be afraid."

Kong Jie nodded and said,"The head can be cut off and the blood can flow, little devil." Japan can't tolerate him."

Chu Yunfei said:"You can fight Japan, but the subsequent effects must be considered."

Zhou Weiguo also said:"General, it is definitely no problem to just fight Japan, but our situation is not optimistic."

Jiang Daya said:"I think so. Pioneer, fight to the end, even if you bite, my big teeth will bite off a piece of meat."

The blood in Shen Hao's heart was also ignited and began to boil. Perhaps this was the hatred for the little devil in his bones.

Ding Wei shook his head and said:"I don't agree to go to war with Japan now. I want to know what the Beiyang government's attitude will be once we fight. This is very important.

Obviously, President Yuan will not agree, and will even I feel that you are out of control, general, but I have turned my head to deal with you."

Then he pointed at the map and said:"Once we start a war with the little devils, what we will face will not be as simple as the little devils.

Tang Xiangming in western Hunan has a bad relationship with us, and he will definitely take advantage of this opportunity. Attack us.

It is even very possible that we will be surrounded by warlords from Fujian, Ganxi, Qianzhou Long Jiguang, Yunnan Tang Jirao and other warlords.

You must know that Tang Jirao and the others are not willing to fight against Japan."

"The Alliance's Sun, Huang and others are also supported by Japan, so the Alliance will not fight us, and may even hold us back."

"President Yuan Da will also send elites to encircle and suppress us. No one wants to see disobedient subordinates."

For Germany, Qingdao is isolated overseas and cannot be rescued. The

German Ocean Fleet has been blocked in the port by the British Navy since the beginning of the war. Qingdao will not receive any reinforcements.

And Japan, Britain, the United States and France stand together.

General Yuan Da has declared neutrality before. Of course, we must seriously consider the Qingdao issue."

"According to intelligence, President Yuan Da sent people to various countries to collect information.

Counselor of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Gu Weijun visited British Minister Zhu Erdian, and Zhu Erdian made it clear that no deal should be made with Germany;

Director-General of Transportation Liang Dunyan visited American Minister Mark Mo, and Liang proposed that Germany hand over Qingdao to the United States, and then the United States transfer it to us. But Makmo refused.

It can be seen that Westerners are colluding together and obviously support Japan."

"On the German side, the German Asian Squadron stationed in Qingdao was worried about being blocked, so the fleet commander Count von Spee led the fleet's main force, the two battleships"Scharnhorst" and"Gneisenno" and several ships. Light cruisers and destroyers left Qingdao and entered the Pacific Ocean"

"After Count Spee left, only two destroyers"Emden" and"Cormorant" and several torpedo boats remained in Qingdao Port.

In addition, Germany has warships anchored in Yantai and Shanghai, Shandong, as well as in Guangdong and Chongqing.

These warships are currently returning to Qingdao as long as they can.

It is said that the inland river gunboats"Otter" and"Motherland" in Chongqing were simply sold to the Beiyang government at a discount."

The"Qingdao" currently stationed at our station in Guangdong is unable to move due to malfunction. I heard that they are planning to sink the Qingdao and are preparing to rush back from land to support it.

"Let’s talk about the gap between us and Japan.

As far as the navy is concerned, in order to prepare for the capture of Qingdao this time, Japan used about one-third of the strength of the combined fleet to form the first and second fleets.

The First Fleet has three battleships, four cruisers and several destroyers. It is commanded by Vice Admiral Tomosaburo Kato. Its mission is to guard the Yellow Sea area. Their purpose must be to prevent the German Asiatic Squadron that has left Qingdao Port from returning to the carnival;"

"The Second Fleet has three old battleships, six cruisers, a seaplane carrier and several destroyers. It is commanded by Lieutenant General Kato Sadakichi. Its mission is to cooperate with the army to conquer Qingdao.

There are six battleships alone, and we only have two of the old German models.

This is only Japan's navy.

In addition, the United Kingdom also dispatched its troops in Asia to cooperate with the operation.

The British fleet in Asia dispatched a battleship and two cruisers, while the army stationed in Xiangjiang dispatched the 36th Sikh Infantry Regiment and the 2nd South Wales Border Regiment, a total of 1,400 men, led by Brigadier General Nathaniel Banaziston. Commanded and participated in the battle in Qingdao.

In addition, there is a heavy cruiser"Empress Elisabeth" from the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

He also entered Qingdao and was ordered to join the battle order of the Allies.

Let’s talk about the Japanese Army.

In order to conquer Qingdao, the little devils used a huge force"

"According to current intelligence, the Army's 18th Division is responsible for the ground attack. At the same time, a 29th Brigade was transferred from the 3rd Division and was unified under the command of the 18th Division.

In addition, two field heavy artillery regiments and four independent heavy artillery brigades are also equipped.

All army units are under the unified command of Lieutenant General Kamio Mitsuomi. They have a total of 51,880 troops, 12,000 horses, 48 ​​150mm heavy howitzers, and more than 100 mountain guns of various types."

"Just talk about these 48 150mm heavy howitzers, do we have them? (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Our largest gun is the 12-inch 305mm naval gun on the battleship.

The largest artillery gun is the 150mm heavy cannon, which is just a cannon. Naturally, its power cannot be compared with the heavy howitzer of the Little Devil.

This is a comparison of military strength.

The Navy was completely crushed.

Although our army's equipment is somewhat inferior, we are not afraid of Japan, but we have no follow-up support.

Once they leave eastern Guangdong and go to Qingdao to fight, they will be isolated and helpless and destroyed by the Beiyang Army."

After Ding Wei finished speaking, everyone fell silent. Shen Hao was also angry. Damn it, he still wasn't strong enough.

If he really wanted to fight, he wouldn't be invincible, but it would be impossible to fight without support and being held back.

Ding Wei said again. :".Once we join Germany and Japan in the fight, what are our odds? what to face"

"Everyone, although we are very powerful, no warlord in the surrounding provinces or even Beiyang is our opponent.

However, the consequences are not something we can bear.

Once we declare war against Japan.

It is very likely that they will face suppression from the Beiyang government. After all, the president will not tolerate the army that has been disobedient.

They will be pursued and intercepted by several provinces, and there will be a shortage of iron ore, food and supplies.

At the same time, there will also be precise strikes from the Japanese fleet on the sea.

Japan has mobilized its entire country for this war. Once we take action, they will even be happy and have reason to attack eastern Guangdong.

At that time, it will not be as simple as beating the Germans in Qingdao. We (Wang Zhaohao) will even face attacks from three aspects: land, sea and air.

Our coastline is so long that it is impossible to defend"

"In addition, once Japan attacks us, other factors must be considered.

Britain, France, the United States, and Tsarist Russia will take the opportunity to join in, and even Germany may turn its guns on us.

Why do you say that? Why is Germany fighting Britain, France and Russia?

On the one hand, it is because of the contradictions in their country, and on the other hand, it is because of the uneven distribution of spoils to the world's colonies.

Once we start a war at this time, we are likely to suffer from their fierce fire and stage another Eight-Nation Alliance.

I suggest that it is possible to attack Japan, but definitely not now.

We can't afford the consequences"

"Although the Japanese Army only has about 300,000 soldiers.

However, the Eagle Nation has more than 100,000 troops in India and can recruit more than 1 million Indian soldiers at any time.

There are also troops in Xiangjiang. Not only that, there should be troops stationed in Myanmar and Laos.

I think it’s better to think twice before approaching.

Once our mineral resources are blocked, all supplies will stop, and we will have to wait to die."

Hearing this, everyone felt that it seemed reasonable.

Shen Hao's blood also cooled down.

"Commander Ding is right, if you want to attack Japan, now is definitely not the time," Chu Yunfei said.
