Chapter 962 This Is the Gap 3
"Bavaria? Those demons have already gone to trouble the Russians. The Russians beat Fritz, and Fritz is the father-in-law of that demon." The Frenchman was obviously a little drunk.
"Okay, that's good, the most difficult part is not there." Dashanyan sweated, but soon he became worried again. The Bavarian Army couldn't defeat it, and the more elite Prussian Army also beat the Japanese army violently! This crisis has not been resolved!
"I'm worried that our army won't be able to adapt to the European battlefield, so I hope to initially undertake some limited combat missions." After looking at the Frenchman opposite and confirming that he could still read numbers, Dashanyan said. This is actually quite embarrassing, but since everyone drank too much, no one will remember it.
"Don't worry, it will be arranged in the secondary direction. We are not worried about the arrangement in the main direction." After the Frenchman finished speaking, he fell to the ground. Then Da Shanyan was left with a face of shame...
Then what. Then what else? The rest was naturally up to Akiyama Haogu's good fortune. Not long after, the battle report of Akiyama Haogu came back, and then Dashanyan took a look at it. Well, not bad, the battle damage did not exceed one third. Also, tell me. Let me change the battle report and calculate the number of troops participating in the battle according to four divisions. In this case, the loss rate will be lower and the data will look better. Dashanyan gave final instructions.
The reception and negotiation matters were left to his subordinates. Even a Japanese army general couldn't accompany him all day long. So, after concluding the talks with the British and French delegations, Oyama Iwa personally came to Shanxian Youtomo's villa, and the two sides began Discuss some little secrets that only "military officers with the rank of lieutenant general or above" may know...
"Shan Xianjun, now the navy has swept away the decline and has regained the initiative." Dashanyan said.
"Oh, I see."
"Akiyama Yoshiko's battle in Europe was a bit bad. The Japanese army has never lost so miserably. The number of casualties caused in one day also broke the record."
"Oh, I see."
"Fuck, what do you mean?" Dashanyan also became angry. "Our army has a lot of problems! We are an era behind the armies of powerful European countries! If this continues, how can we advance north? Even if Russia collapses and becomes weak, we still can't defeat them! It's just a joke! And then The Army will follow the Navy's baton! Maybe after us, the Army will really become the Marine Corps!"
"So, we must change, and the prerequisite for change is that you have money. Only with money can you have good equipment. As for officers and soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles, there is always some gold left after the waves of the European battlefield. Although there is a big gap between us, we still have time, so you take care of the military matters, what about me? While the army still controls the cabinet, I will ask for the military expenses first!" Shanxian Youpeng really did it A man of great things,
At least you know how to get money before doing anything!
"Instead of reaching the level of the Germans, I hope that when we take action, the elite troops in the Japanese army can at least reach the average level of the French. That is enough!" Yamagata Aritomo said with emotion. The Japanese Navy is already third in the world, but the Japanese Army? Friends from Shanxian County are counting their fingers. Germany, Britain, France, and Russia are definitely not comparable. The Austro-Hungarian Empire? It should be about the same... There is a long way to go!
Allies, sometimes they can hand over their backs to their opponents, sometimes they are prepared to trap them, and sometimes they serve as potential enemies. Many Japanese believe that once the European battlefield is over, Russia is likely to return Turn around and deal with Japan. If Russia changes to a more efficient government, Japan will definitely not be able to deal with such a behemoth. But fortunately, there is still a chance for everything. After the old Russia falls and before the new Russia stands up, Japan does not mind knocking off Russia's bridgehead in the Far East!
Russia is very big and has many people, but there are not many people in the Far East! This is also the reason why Japan dares to take action. In addition to the collapse of the Russian ruling system within a period of time, the sparse population of the Russian Far East is also good news for Japan to control the Far East. By the time the internal power struggle in Russia is coming to an end, it has become scarred. When the numerous victors arrived in the Far East, the Japanese Empire had already completed its control over the Xing'an Mountains and northern Sakhalin Island. By then, how could Russia have the strength to take it back? ! This is what Youpeng in Shanxian County thinks!
This is also the last chance for the Army to advance the "Northward Advance" plan. Only if the "Northward Advance" is successful can the Army gain attention and compete with the Navy for power! Therefore, when it comes to sending troops to Europe, Yamagata Youto is indeed interested in the economic and technical support from Britain and France, but more importantly, he needs to understand his opponents and train an army suitable for the new era. Even if he had to pay a lot of casualties, Shanxian Youpeng regarded him as "tuition".
As for the effect? Don’t tell me, it’s true! At least the Japanese felt that they had found the gap and the direction of pursuit. Apart from anything else, they first equipped the submachine guns and towed artillery. Then they looked at the photos and information of the self-propelled artillery that Dashanyan took out, and the expectant eyes of the other party. , Shanxian Youpeng closed his eyes, and then drew a cross on the subsequent purchase quantity!
"I'll go! You can't do this! I promised the artillery brothers!" Dashanyan was anxious.
"Those guys are not even skilled in tractors. You let them do this?!" Shanxian Youpeng asked. "Besides, where do you want me to get this money from?" Even in the second battle, let alone artillery, even the 6-inch artillery has no chance of reaching the division level. These are all independent heavy artillery regiments, such as Japan's Type 96 cannon, the Kwantung Army can have some at this level. Although Japan in this dimension is much stronger than the same period in history, it still cannot compare with European countries. Especially now, when Japan has not entered a state of war, and when the Japanese Navy has made big moves and taken away a considerable amount of funds!
"This is different from what we agreed!" Dashanyan said.
"Why don't you talk to the French about adding more troops in exchange for some equipment?" Shanxian Youpeng had no choice. "It is really impossible to increase military spending now, you know? There are almost too many navies, and Britain and France are already preparing to break the situation at sea."
"Is the navy going to move? Is it going to the Mediterranean or the Indian Ocean?" Dashanyan asked curiously. I definitely won’t go back to Beihai anyway. Although Dashanyan doesn’t understand the navy, he knows that those guys in the navy will never disturb the muddy waters of Beihai! It’s so damn dangerous!
