Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

Many things in life are such coincidences. When the east is not bright, the west is bright. The west is losing battles, and the east is winning battles, but many people are surprised by this.

In the early morning of April 14, 1913, contrary to what many people thought, many people in the Far East were not sleeping, but working all night. These people were working hard all night for their own purposes. , they hope that their hard work will yield corresponding results.

The southern government is now the seat of the National Government, Guangzhou, in the government office building.

"It's getting quieter now," Huang Xing said at the beginning, and then said excitedly: "Mr. Sun's return this time is simply great for us."

Could it be bad? In the past, when Sun Yat-sen took the lead, all the wise people in the country joined under Sun Yat-sen's leadership. This can be said to be a manifestation of the integrity of the country. However, by giving power to Yuan Shikai, it tore the country into pieces. , why, it is actually very simple, because unlike Sun Yat-sen, Yuan Shikai did not have the spirit of selflessness, and there was nepotism in employing people. This is exactly the opposite of Sun Yat-sen's approach. This is for many people, especially those who have For many people with entangled interests, this is definitely a very exciting thing.

However, compared with Huang Xing, Song Jiaoren is not so optimistic. Today is different from the past. Although Sun Wen's influence is still there, it is only to overthrow the Qing Dynasty. But what we are facing now is The issue of separatist forces in the country, then. Things are not as smooth as before. Among other things, if we compare the current Nanjing government with the Guangzhou government, there are differences in material quality between the two places governed by these two governments. Now the Nanjing government Under the leadership of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian and other places, they have far surpassed the Guangzhou government in many economic aspects. Under this premise, whether it is the government or the underground people, they are really willing to follow a seemingly Isn’t it a government that can’t make its own life better? To this. Song Jiaoren felt very suspicious.

Song Jiaoren frowned inadvertently. . But it was discovered by Sun Wen, who had been paying attention to him.

"Jiaoren, what do you think?" Sun Wen has always valued Song Jiaoren very highly. Otherwise, he would not have given him such a heavy burden in the first place. The reason why Sun Wen rushed back this time was. In fact, some people were shocked when they heard the news that Song Jiaoren was assassinated some time ago. Compared with Huang Xing, Song Jiaoren was actually more of Sun Wen's spokesperson when executing Sun Wen's orders. Song Jiaoren was much more thorough than Huang Xing.

Song Jiaoren glanced at Sun Wen respectfully, and then expressed his worries.

"It's no wonder you think this way. If I were an ordinary person and knew that my life could be much better in Myanmar with the Nanjing government, I would naturally choose to live there for my family. After all, this is What ordinary people yearn for." Sun Wen said indifferently, "However, in terms of some consensus, although Lu Xun is a bit stubborn, he has kept in communication with us for some reasons. Some time ago, I also received many personal letters from him. We still talked happily, and now Sun and him can be regarded as old friends."

Inadvertently, his eyes fell on Huang Xing, who was shocked all over. Sun Wen smiled a little in his heart, but he pretended not to notice at all.

"Now the world has fallen into a period of ups and downs of war, but the Far East is still calm now. This seems to be very similar to the calm period before the tsunami in the Pacific, so we need to be extremely careful now and must not lose the chain now. There is also the issue of Yuan Shikai. I analyzed it and finally decided to follow the Nanjing government’s policy and choose to keep a low profile first. After these war disturbances in Europe stop, we can get more support. At that time, we Whether it is war, military materials or economic assistance, we will be very different from what we are now."

"European war?" Many people think of disputes such as the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Tsarist Russia. Huang Xing and Song Jiaoren have already entered the international perspective. Although the current Guangzhou government does not have a large sphere of influence, this does not prevent them from There are independent viewpoints on some issues, especially when it is close to the British colony of Hong Kong. Guangzhou is similar to Nanjing and has become a place for outings in foreign concessions. From the mouths of these countries, we also learned about the political and military struggles between many heavyweight powers in the world, especially in Europe. This made several people understand many deep inside stories.

He even felt the pressure all over his body.

Like the southern government in Guangzhou, Lu Xun is currently holding similar meetings with his team in Nanjing. But the results are similar, they all mean to watch the world quietly. On the contrary, Yuan Shikai in the north and Li Yuanhong in the west are both ready to make moves. They have begun to expand their armies everywhere. Many people don't understand why these two people are still rapidly expanding their armies at this time.

After all, a drastic military expansion at this time would be easily susceptible to corresponding reactions from other parties. Moreover, the world is in a storm. The reaction of these two people may eventually turn into other countries in the world turning their attention to themselves. This is definitely not good for the current big governments. After all, in front of the great powers, they definitely only have their share to be divided. Therefore, keeping a low profile now is the best strategy.

Tokyo, Prime Minister's Office.

The Elders Council under the leadership of Prime Minister Katsura gathered again.

Kuroki Moraki, Kawamura Keaki, Terauchi Masaki, Nozu Michizuki, and Uehara Yusaku are all senior generals of the army. Opposite them is the navy.

Heitaro Togo, Goro Ijuin, Minoru Saito, Yuzaburo Kato. These are the elites of the navy and army. In addition to him, they are also members of the Council of Elders.

Saionji Konobo, Yamada Aritomo, Matsukata Masayoshi, Inoue Kaoru, Oyama Iwa, and the newly joined Ogami Shigenobu and Yamamoto Gonbei.

The Prime Minister's Conference Hall, which is not very spacious, already seems a bit narrow.

Everyone has a bit of expectation on their faces, because they are all waiting for a piece of news. This news is their most important purpose of waiting tonight. This shows the importance of this message.

Don't be so nervous, everyone. We have to believe in the actions of our army. I believe this operation will be successful. As a real field marshal, Dashanyan has carefully planned this operation. Many details have been carefully studied this time. Coupled with this cooperation, it is obvious that he is now, Absolutely very confident in the qualification task. So when looking at other people. With a confident smile on his face. Especially when looking at this guy Yamamoto Gonbei.

Hailu is one family. But the land and sea of ​​the family are not so harmonious. Japan used to have a shortage of funds, but as an army, Japan has been developing its navy in recent years. It actually makes the current military expenditure of the navy more than twice that of the army. This is very dissatisfying to Dashanyan, who has always been very proud. However, this is something that even the Emperor agrees with. You must know that this was one of the things Emperor Meiji urged most during his lifetime. Therefore, as a representative of the army in recent years, he has been looked down upon by many people below, saying that he, the field marshal, is not as strong as the navy field marshal Yamamoto Gonbei.

It is precisely because of this that many army soldiers have accumulated anger.

This time the army's action can be said to be used by Dashanyan as a turnaround, so it places many hopes of Dashanyan on it. There is absolutely no room for error.

And what about Yamamoto Gonbei on the opposite side? Of course he also saw Oyama Iwa's provocative intentions, but compared to Oyama Iwa, Yamamoto Gonbei was a very calm and wise general. Even if he described it as a cunning fox, it would not be too much. It is said that he was only The think tank around Ito Hirobumi can only be compared on the battlefield. Oyamayan can fight, but due to some political twists and turns, Yamamoto Gonbei is far behind.

When other people saw the two of them, they just pretended not to see them. Every family has a hard-to-recite scripture. Although sometimes these people will form gangs, this does not mean that at this important moment, They are still "making nonsense" like this.

"Prime Minister, the matter you asked me to pay attention to has now come to fruition." Konoe Fumimaro walked in quickly with a stack of telegrams, and then came to Katsura Taro to the surprise of many people.

"Say, since everyone is bored waiting, we might as well listen."

With excitement, Konoe Fumimaro secretly glanced at the top figures in Japan around him. He secretly swore an oath in his heart that in this life, he would definitely strive to become one of these people. What he didn't know was that the oath he took today made him a Japanese Class-A war criminal in World War II.

"yes"

Then just because of his good eloquence, many people gathered around him.

“These two people have really good political acumen.”

"As expected of a major Western country, such talents are actually just civilians. If such talents come to our Empire of Japan, our strength will definitely rise to the next level."

"It's not entirely true. They know it so clearly. How much of it is information provided to them by the Spanish intelligence agency. After all, if there is no accurate information, God knows whether they will be blind and unable to do anything. I can’t see clearly, let alone the development of the world situation.”

Under Konoe Fumimaro's systematic introduction, this place has simply become a vegetable market. However, everyone obviously knew that they did not turn up the volume loud enough for Konoe Fumimaro, the 'host'. After all, they are still listening to the latest news.

"Wait, what did you just say?"

Everyone stood up immediately, and then everyone stared at Konoe Fumimaro with their mouths open, which made the latter almost collapse in front of many big shots.

Katsura Taro ignored the already pale Konoe Fumimaro, and then quickly grabbed the material that Konoe Fumimaro had just read. At first glance, his expression suddenly changed, which made many others join the team. . For a moment, the entire Prime Minister's Office suddenly went into a state of wonder. (To be continued...)

ps: The first update, there will be another update later.
