Chapter 882 Must Fight

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

For a moment, the Prime Minister even thought that he had heard wrongly.

Or maybe he was wrong.

War is imperative?

Fighting alongside the Military?

The Prime Minister felt that the surroundings were spinning. He shook his head and looked at the old man in front of him.

This time, he was finally certain that he was not mistaken.

The person in front of him was indeed the highly respected Emperor Ming Wu of Japan, not the leader of the left wing.

Looking at the Emperor's aged but serious gaze, the Prime Minister finally understood that he hadn't heard of it and the Emperor hadn't said anything wrong.

This war was imperative and had to be fought!

However, the Prime Minister's mind was even more confused. At the same time, he was smiling bitterly in his heart. He simply could not understand why this unbelievable transformation was taking place. Why did the Emperor, who had always opposed the war, suddenly become the strongest warlord in the blink of an eye?

What exactly did this mean?

Could it be that he had a new view of himself?

The Prime Minister was shocked and cold sweat poured out of his body.

In an instant, the Prime Minister had some conspiracy theories.

This is not entirely impossible.

Yurisses and Dabinett of the United States could sacrifice more than 100,000 troops to destroy their political enemies in order to fight against the Hoventon Group. Why wouldn't the Emperor do that?

"Tick …"

A drop of cold sweat rolled down the Prime Minister's cheek and fell on the ground, instantly shattering him.

Once he had the idea of conspiracy theory in his heart, he couldn't help but think more and more. Many ideas appeared at the same time, and the Prime Minister couldn't even purposely erase them.

During this period of time, he was busy with the war. He frequently held secret talks with the generals of the left-wing forces, signed countless orders to mobilize the Self-Defense Forces, held several war speeches in public, and strengthened the confidence of the six-nation coalition forces in winning the war, attacking Bick, and visiting the Yasukuni Shrine.

The Emperor definitely saw this series of actions.

It was precisely because the Prime Minister was confident in this war that he felt that only sending the Black Dragon Army into the war could not be done in good faith. In the hint of General Bahamt, the commander of the Pacific Command of the United States, he began to make a big fuss for the war.

He had never greeted the Emperor before.

Could it be that because of this, the Emperor was dissatisfied with him and wanted to destroy him?

The Prime Minister's expression was uncertain. After the conspiracy theory was established in his heart, he subconsciously began to think about what kind of price the Emperor would have to pay if he wanted to use war to defeat him. However, the more he thought about it, the more hopeless he became.

After the end of World War II, Japan, as a defeated country, did not have an army. There were only Self-Defense Forces. Of course, everyone knew that this was only a superficial statement. However, this superficial statement was extremely fatal to the Prime Minister.

Japan's true military strength was concentrated on the Black Dragon Army and the Heavenly Cloud Army. As for the Japanese Self-Defense Forces? It was just an ornament.

However, in the hearts of the majority of the people, the strength of the Self-Defense Forces was the entire strength of the Japanese military. Even if there were people who knew about the situation, even if they knew that this was not the case, they would never imagine how deep the strength of the Black Dragon and Skycloud Forces was compared to the exposed Self-Defense Forces.

It was no exaggeration to say that if the Black Dragon Army and Skycloud Army were to join forces, the Self-Defense Forces would not even have a tenth of their strength or even less.

This was simply unimaginable to ordinary people.

If the Emperor wanted to kill him with this matter, he would only need to lose some of the Self-Defense Forces in the early stages of the war. How many warships? Some soldiers? The Emperor was even more ruthless. Throwing the entire Self-Defense Forces out to bury the Prime Minister was not a big deal. Even if the Self-Defense Forces were completely annihilated, it would not have much of an impact on Japan's military strength.

The impact on the prime minister was fatal.

The emperor opposed the war and the prime minister led the way.

This was not a secret in Japan. Once the Self-Defense Forces were defeated, the Emperor could naturally push everything onto the Prime Minister. At that time, he would be in the same situation as Dabinett. Other than resigning, there was no other way.

The emperor wanted to completely kill him?

Although this thought was hard to believe, the Prime Minister had no other possibility than this answer.

"Your Majesty … you …"

The smile on the Prime Minister's face froze, and his tone instantly darkened.

He suddenly remembered the consequences of his departure, After the defeat, If he is forced to resign, The anti-war Ming Wu Empyrean Emperor would undoubtedly receive a lot of support, The emperor's prestige among the people was incomparable, With a lot of support, The momentum will be even more terrifying, After he resigned, Japan had a hard time picking a new prime minister, The emperor's full strength would also expand limitlessly. Even if the government could push out the idea of trusting the prime minister to control the highest authority in Japan, but when the new prime minister took office and wanted to form a new government, he simply could not defeat Emperor Mingwu, whose foundation and prestige were extremely deep. At that time, moving closer to the emperor would be the only choice of trusting the prime minister.

The power of the royal family would be greatly enhanced, and it would even become a power that truly surpassed the government.

Was this the Emperor's plan?

The Prime Minister took a deep look at Emperor Mingwu, his gaze becoming even colder.

Emperor Mingwu had a deep foundation. Occasionally, he would interfere in politics. This was completely acceptable to him. However, if the royal family completely replaced the government, it would be a retrogression in Japanese society. This was definitely not a good thing for Japan.

"You think too much."

The emperor shook his head and revealed a self-deprecating bitter smile as if he had seen through the Prime Minister's thoughts. "Lord Mei Chuan, when has it been? Do you think I am an old fool who cares nothing about internal strife? At this time, any internal strife is useless to us. We are different from the United States, and you don't agree with me."

Mei Chuaneku, this is the name of the Japanese Prime Minister, and Emperor Mingwu has not addressed him by this name for many years. When he meets the Prime Minister, he usually calls him His Excellency the Prime Minister. Now that he directly mentions the Prime Minister's name, he feels that the Prime Minister is kind, but at the same time, he also feels that the Emperor's words are extremely sincere.

The Prime Minister's face turned red. He was a little ashamed, but at the same time, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He had been the Prime Minister for all these years, and he believed that he was very obedient and respectful to the Emperor. If the Emperor did not touch him, then the two of them would definitely continue to be intimate.

"Over that years since Monarch Mei Chuanjun took office, His relationship with the royal family had always been harmonious, We have been advancing and retreating together for a long time. It would be a pity for me to lose such a prime minister. Therefore, not only do we not have any conflicts of interest, we also have the same demand. Moreover, even if I harbor ill intentions towards you, I would not choose to take action at this moment. Isn't the lesson of the United States not painful enough? "The ruins of the capital, hundreds of thousands of lives lost, these are the result of internal strife, the loss of US state capital, if it was Japan, after suffering such a huge loss, we would probably surrender voluntarily now."

The emperor sighed and patted the prime minister on the shoulder.

"Then you..."

The Prime Minister smiled bitterly and hesitated to say anything.

"You want to ask me why I support this war?"

The emperor waved his hand and signaled the prime minister to sit on the sofa. After giving him a cup of tea, he asked directly.

"Yes, this war is obviously not good for us. The country is in chaos and we can't afford to worry about ourselves. We …"

The Prime Minister took a sip of tea, After saying that, However, he suddenly stopped. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, Come here yourself, hoping that the anti-war emperor would stop him from waging war, But now, On the contrary, he had become an anti-war faction, and the Emperor became the main warrior, However, the Old Emperor had already revealed his true feelings to him. Therefore, the Prime Minister was not on guard this time. Under the old man's smiling expression, he continued, "If we still join the Alliance Army now, our chances of winning are really not high. Even if we can win, it will only be a small victory. Furthermore, it will be a small victory after a protracted battle. A miserable victory is not in our interest at all."

"You should know, after Hawington returned to the United States, a series of revelations has dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the U.S. Military, This has affected the state of operations of the Pacific Command troops, " Divine Continent Empire 's national strength has increased explosively in recent years. The royal family has established some good relations with the developed countries in Europe, intentionally or unintentionally. The royal family also has a large number of sophisticated European weapons and equipment. In addition to the Divine Continent Empire's super-strong national strength, it is too difficult for us to start this war when the United States is overwhelmed."

"That's not what you said before."

The emperor listened to the Prime Minister's incessant words and said in a calm tone.

"Yes."

The Prime Minister nodded and smiled bitterly again, "But the situation was not like that. At that time, Huo Wenton was captured. I think the United States will soon end the civil strife and reunite. But now, the fact is that Huo Wenton has returned, and the internal strife in the United States is getting more and more serious."

"So you think it would be better for Japan to withdraw from this war? And even if it does, the troubled U.S. Doesn't have any extra strength to do anything to us, so we won't lose anything, right?"

The Heavenly Emperor's tone was still as calm as ever.

"That's true."

The Prime Minister hesitated for a moment before nodding.

"Lord Mei Chuan, I have two questions for you."

The emperor picked up his teacup and took a sip, smiling.

"Tell me."

The Prime Minister said cautiously.

"Does Monarch Mei Chuanjun think that after this great change, the United States will split into two countries?"

The Emperor asked carelessly.

The United States is divided.

This is the boldest hypothesis ever made by some of the most radical media, Perhaps with ulterior motives, Perhaps it was a serious analysis, In short, there is still a market for such assumptions, Those who held this view believed that Yurisses and Dabinett had caused enormous damage to Huo Wenton. With Huo Wenton's arrogance and his current strength and support, his Huo Wenton Group was likely to break away from the rule of the US government and rebuild a country in ten states, including Golden State, Lonely State, and New Silver State.

But the prime minister scoffed, Hearing the Emperor's question, Without thinking, he shook his head and said, "It's not possible, Hawington may be crazy, But not stupid, If he dares to do so, When he did that, When he was destroyed, This is simply impossible, And looking at the current direction of the winds in the United States, Although Yurisses was still in a sorry state, But most of the blame fell on Dabinett, If I'm not mistaken, Howington has the intention to join forces with Yurisses. After they defeat Dabinett, the inflated Howington will take Dabinett's place again, and Yurisses's influence will continue to decline. It is even possible that the Howington Group will be alone. In any case, the United States cannot be divided. "

"I agree with you."

The emperor nodded. '"Then the second question is, if we withdraw from this war now, other countries will follow suit. The six-nation alliance army will definitely become a joke. This war will most likely be over. We, the six countries, will not say anything about it. Let me ask you, if this war does not end, what are we going to do in the future?"

"From now on?"

The Prime Minister was stunned for a moment, his face blank.

"Yes, in the future."

The Emperor narrowed his eyes. "The war is over, the United States can only give up most of its interests to make peace, Divine Continent Empire won, The United States could not even raise its head in front of the Divine Continent Empire. All the countries in the world will realize the strength of the Divine Continent Empire. Their rise will be unstoppable. Their warships and aircraft carriers will run rampant in the Pacific Ocean. The treasure islands will return. The Diaoyutai Empire will return. Divine Continent Empire will become a colossus in the entire world. They will even become another US country. What will we do then?

'"The surrounding countries will all crawl at the feet of the Divine Continent Empire, surviving! Without dignity, without stance, like dogs, and even more tragically, we won't even be able to find supporters! Have you ever imagined such a scene?"

Prime Minister Mei Chuaneku was suddenly shocked, his face pale, even a little frightened.

"The more chaotic the United States is, the more we will use this opportunity to wage war. This is our last chance. So the current situation is not for the United States to fight, but for us to fight, we have to fight, we have to fight, we have to fight!"

The Emperor brought over the teacup in front of him and drank all the tea in one gulp as he said heavily.
