Chapter 1105 He Only Has One Wish and One Extravagant Desire
This is a question that many people present haven't been able to figure out.
In that mountain city, not only were there bandits, but they were also shameless, taking pride in not being able to defeat the Japanese army. They forced the Empire to provide them with a lot of technical equipment, including heavy equipment such as tanks, fighter jets, and transport planes. As for light weapons, there were countless items, and they even took over some of the production lines for heavy and light machine guns.
In the same way, they also received a lot of weapons and technology reinforcements from Britain, and even the area north of Mandalay in Myanmar was allocated to the mountain city.
Judging from these events, the mountain city should have made rapid progress, and there shouldn't have been much of a tug-of-war with the Japanese army. However, the statistics that came out were truly astonishing.
The gap between the mountain city and the Japanese army did not improve much.
"What's wrong? We can't defeat the Japanese army because they launched a surprise attack. We can't wipe out some remnants of the previous dynasty within the empire in a short time because they are too well hidden. I can understand these problems. But now, you can't even give me an explanation for this one issue. I really suspect that it is because our years of peaceful life have made you lower your guard, or that you simply haven't taken this matter seriously."
These words are undoubtedly akin to killing someone by attacking their spirit.
Several people turned pale, but the Minister of Commerce, who had been relatively unnoticed until now, whispered, "They...they don't have the resources."
Yes.
This sentence touches on the most crucial point.
Mountain city, it has no resources.
To put it another way, let's use a phrase from over there.
Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. His shameless swindling and cheating in the city might have seemed intimidating at first glance, but the problem was that they lacked the resources to sustain their production.
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, this is probably why the gap remains unclosed."
"Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister, they simply don't have enough resources for construction, so..." That's a huge difference.
Josephine was speechless.
What else could he say? It was an undeniable fact, after all.
But that wouldn't be a good thing for the empire.
"This can't go on. The troops in the mountain city are already difficult to deal with. Their fearlessness is even more terrifying than that of the Japanese army. If the Japanese army finds out that there is not much benefit to be gained from them, they will probably gradually give up on occupying them and change their direction. We can't predict which direction they will take, but I think they will also consider us as a target."
Who told the Empire to not only fail to gain momentum in that battle, but also lose face in the war?
This gave the Japanese army a choice. If they couldn't bully the strong, they could still bully the weak.
Your Northern Soviet Union isn't much better, is it? Not to mention, you're already being held back by the remnants of the previous regime, and Berlin is also eyeing you covetously. Yes, you're the most suitable one.
They were a good match for me, but not for me.
“We’re going to release a message, a false message that looks perfectly reliable.” Josephine relit her pipe and looked at the group. “Do you understand?”
"I really don't understand why that old geezer at the sergeant school let you go back."
Prince Asaka looked at Zhou Weiguo sitting opposite him and asked a question he couldn't understand.
He really wanted to question those people from the military academy back then, to find out why they let this person go back. Even if such a person wasn't useful to the empire, they still had to find a way to destroy him.
But what did those people at the sergeant school do to get him to send them back, and even give them an outstanding graduate certificate?
As it turns out, the certificate, which was once obtained with such humiliation, can no longer conceal Zhou Weiguo's abilities.
That's what he deserves.
This kid's analysis is spot on.
The navy took action. The Third Fleet mobilized two aircraft carriers, two battleships, and more than a dozen frigates to attack a key supply port in British India. At the same time, their marines launched a large-scale flanking maneuver from another location. Two armies from the Kingdom of Buddha also participated in the operation.
Now, that port is probably already in their possession.
The headquarters is already discussing this issue, and the purpose of the discussion is only one: whether the empire should continue fighting against the mountain city or mobilize a large force to launch a new offensive against northern South Asia.
He was dumbfounded when he heard the topic of the meeting; Zhou Weiguo had gotten it all right.
Zhou Weiguo, who was casually peeling fruit for Asaka Shurei, looked up at him and said, "Given the circumstances at the time and the commotion caused by us, they wouldn't let us leave. So, the cadets at the sergeant school had to make us forget their true purpose by causing them to make a fuss."
Wait a moment?
Prince Asaka did know that there had been some trouble at the military academy, but he wasn't entirely sure what it was about because he wasn't there at the time, and the matter had been covered up by his superiors.
He could only hear part of the information.
"What exactly did you do back then? I remember that the principal of the sergeant school wasn't someone who was easily subdued."
Zhou Weiguo sighed and said, "Fang Shengli, you should know that this kid bought a lot of notebooks from the alleys outside and distributed them for free."
Ok.
Any man, whether old or young, would find it hard to resist such a sight, let alone the young men at the officer academy.
If these people see this, they'll definitely go out and experience it for themselves, and once they do, they'll surely discover something.
Given the circumstances at the time, someone like Zhou Weiguo should have been a key figure to be protected by the embassy, and the Empire was at its most harmonious with them at that time, with both sides even sending envoys.
If this were removed, it would likely cause some international disputes.
This environment allowed Zhou Weiguo to act arrogantly, but the sergeant school was powerless to do anything about it and could only decide to send them back.
"The matter here should be resolved soon." Prince Asaka didn't want to dwell on this matter anymore. Time couldn't be turned back, and he couldn't betray Zhou Weiguo. The best time to betray him had passed. Betraying him now wouldn't be called betrayal, nor would it be called serving the empire. Rather, it would be a wise man to be pragmatic.
He is not a hero, nor does he want to become a famous person. In his heart, there is only one purpose now.
