Chapter 312 Taiping is coming
"The people of Taiping have finally taken action!" Shinohara Ishihara, dressed in a kimono, put down the phone and handed it to the assistant next to him. He couldn't help but say excitedly to his father who was slowly honing his tea skills.
"This time I will definitely beat those Chinese people hard!" When Shintaro Ishihara, a famous right-winger, had already put the Chinese people's hat on Taiping when the Japanese were defeated in front of Taiping. He is one of the few Japanese politicians who openly and directly call the Chinese people Chinese, and he is even more rude to identifying the Taiping Kingdom supported by China.
Ishihara Nobua frowned slightly without being noticed, but then let go.
Now in an important stage of the prime minister election, although the people like to be tough on Chinese people, those chaebols who control Japan's political situation are the ones who control Japan's political situation. Although the Ishihara family is also a famous chaebol in Japan, it cannot be compared with Mitsui, Sumitomo and other chaebols. Since Shinoko Ishihara wants to strive for this prime minister, he will definitely abide by certain rules.
In politics, it is difficult to become the supreme leader of a country if it is too left or too right.
As for Japan and China alone, the interest exchanges between the two countries have bound a large group of powerful interest groups. The benefits that can be obtained by war are far lower than those created by peaceful exchanges. Some frictions between the two countries are just bargaining means by both sides. If you want to be the Japanese Prime Minister, you can either go left or right, but not overly extreme. Those who are overly extreme have already broken through the bottom line of exchanges between the two countries and it is difficult to recover the unfavorable situation, so you can only be pushed out as a gun.
Just like Shintaro Ishihara, who has a Japanese literary youth and a manure, don’t be able to win reputation among the people by relying on the foundation of a writer and those extreme slogans. But he cannot take that last step.
However, his excessive reputation gave his son Shinko Ishihara a chance. In this prime ministerial battle, Shinko Ishihara had already taken a critical step.
At this critical moment, Shintaro Ishihara, who would rather serve as a gun for his son, would have misrepresented words, such as the title of this Chinese man, which would probably end his son's pace of reaching the top.
The gentle attitude towards China is a complementary form of Shintaro Ishihara frowns because his mouth is too smelly, and the literary youth is prone to being too extreme when he gets sick. However, at this time, it is a time when Japan and Chinese are tense. Even if Shintaro Ishihara is too extreme, it will not have much impact. On the contrary, because of his tough attitude towards China, Shintaro Ishihara can add points to Shintaro Ishihara's campaign for the Prime Minister.
"This time the Taiping people are coming. We still need to be prepared. The final battle will be in these few days." Shinobu Ishihara said directly to his father.
The so-called final battle is a battle for the position of prime minister.
No matter how powerful the major chaebols behind them are, the position of prime minister occupies a moral commanding height. In addition to the royal family that was suppressed by the Americans, the position of prime minister represents the number one person in Japan. If it is operated properly, it can even break free from the manipulation of the big boss behind it and become the real number one person in power. This has also attracted various Japanese forces to compete for this throne.
Taiping Kingdom slapped the Japanese several times in the face. Finally, he knocked Noda and salt to the ground and was kicked off the Taiwan Strait, but the new Japanese Prime Minister was dying.
Japan continued to break free from the shackles of the Peace Charter, which made diplomatic difficulties during this period. Noda Jiayan probably reached the end of his political life, and began to promote the recovery of Japanese military forces like crazy in order to leave a reputation for breaking ice in Japanese history, but this also left a hot yam for later generations. At the same time, Japan's political situation at this time was also facing huge opportunities. Everyone let Noda Jiayan go to trouble, so as to take the opportunity to break free from the shackles even more, and at most to use Noda as a scapegoat to oust the shackles.
When Noda's cabinet finally failed to withstand the pressure from both inside and outside, the forces that saw the opportunity fought for the superiors more fiercely this time. The policies towards China and the attitude towards Taiping became two key points.
Without solving the problem of Taiping Country's slap in the face, anyone is somewhat confident in coming to power, which is also one of the reasons why the new Japanese Prime Minister delayed.
"The people of Taiping might think that our country is in political turmoil and chaos, and they want to take the opportunity to take another risk. At the parade, their king directly announced the holding of the ocean-going military exercise. The news I just received was that their fleet had already sailed towards Southeast Asia." Shinosaki Ishihara looked at the tea and couldn't help but change it to sake and said excitedly.
Isn't the original layout just to let Taiping people cheat in? Even part of the chaos in the election of the Prime Minister was played for the outside world. Now the position of Prime Minister has basically been locked in the last two candidates.
The Japanese Democratic Party lost too many points on Taipingguo before, so this time there was no hope. The Restoration Association's Hashishita Toru had not accumulated enough popularity and had already lost. The final winner belonged to the Liberal Democratic Party, and Shigeru Ishihara performed the final "stone-to-stone" with Shinkami Ishihara and Shigeru Ishiba.
Originally, Shigeru Ishiba was originally the chief of defense and was very popular in the army, but it was because he knew the strength of Japan's military strength that he seemed more conservative. It was not as tempting as Shinko Ishihara's promise to the military. This time, the interception plan for Taiping Kingdom was partly credited by Shinko Ishihara. If he could directly take the stage with a fatal blow to Taiping Kingdom, how could he not be excited?
"Is the fleet from Taiping Kingdom strong?" Shintaro Ishihara calmed down for a moment before continuing to sit upright, sniffing the tea and raising his eyebrows and asked.
"This time the fleet they dispatched is not weak, and most of the warships participating in the parade have arrived." Shinobu Ishihara said disapprovingly, "But even if they all come, they will still have to hate the South China Sea."
Shinoya Ishihara has been paying attention to this military parade of Taiping Kingdom. During the morning military parade, the two giant missiles and the aerial tanker that emerged from Taiping Kingdom surprised him, but there were not so many surprises in the afternoon's maritime military exercises.
When the Taiping Kingdom fleet lined up in an orderly line and sailed through the reviewing stands of the Western Harbor, although it won the cheers of the Taiping Kingdom citizens and other foreign audiences, it was not very innovative for the intelligence agencies of various countries.
Warships are no different from other weapons. Each ship has a vein to follow, and each ship takes time to carefully build it. Compared with the lifespan of those warships that can serve for half a century, it is normal to build a ship in a few years.
Every warship that Taiping Kingdom unveiled has already been registered in the intelligence agencies of various countries, and this time it did not surprise them. What really interested them was either parked in the fully enclosed dock of Taiping Kingdom, or internal adjustments that could not be seen by the public of those warships unveiled.
Some time ago, Taiping Kingdom served another Akimo-class ship, and it was already eye-catching to take action such as the Izumo service. It was so short that the military parade was so short that it was stared at by the United States and Japan, but there were no new warships to serve again.
If other factors are not considered, only warships and weapons are considered, this naval strength can already be among the top ten in the world. However, the Japanese have already made sufficient response measures based on the existing naval strength of Taiping Kingdom and possible unexpected situations. As long as there are not many accidents, they are really not afraid. Even if the main force of Taiping Kingdom's fleet is fully produced.
The floating island aircraft carrier of Taiping Kingdom has been dispatched, and the Ukraine, which continues to be transformed, has also been dispatched.
In addition, the two Akitsuki-class ships were shipped, one Atogo-class ship, and the Izumo-class ship, which made the Japanese hate him. Under the escort of two 22356 ships, two Saxony-class ships and two 054a-class frigates, most of the Taiping** team participating in the exercises were formed, forming a huge fleet, heading southwest.
"They are under the banner of exercises, not other reasons, such as protecting expatriates?" Shintaro Ishihara, who has always liked to think about words, said a little strangely.
Logically speaking, if there is a problem with Chinese people in Southeast Asia, the one who should come forward is the Chinese. Although the Taiping people are also Chinese, they are relatives who are completely inseparable from the Chinese people in Southeast Asia. After the last Philippines incident, Taiping countries evacuated their own citizens, which made the reasons for protecting overseas Chinese are insufficient.
But this exercise is an even more outrageous excuse. No matter how much the exercise is, it will not be practiced at other people's homes. Even Americans who often do similar things usually just wander around their doorsteps, but if it were like Taiping Country, this way of intimidation at their doorsteps would not work at all.
"I guess they really may take tough measures and may directly evolve from exercises to real wars." Shingo Ishihara said solemnly, "No matter what excuses they use, the United States, Malays and Indonesians will discuss this time. As long as the people of Taiping dare to take action, the United States' Pacific Fleet will directly interfere."
"Then we can also take the opportunity to expand our self-defense scope to Southeast Asia! At least we can gain the right to take the initiative to defend ourselves in the Taiping Fleet." Shintaro Ishihara couldn't help but put down his pocket teacup, rubbed his hands excitedly and began to think a lot. After a while, he pretended to be regretful, "I am afraid that the Taiping people will not be deceived and will not take action directly!"
No one responded to his words. Not only did he look up at his son, but he saw Shinra Ishihara frowning bitterly, with an ugly expression on his face.
"Hmm? What's wrong?" Shintaro Ishihara snorted coldly.
