Red Alert 1895

Chapter 89: Morale of the Japanese Army

"Hey, I heard that the Fourth Wing was completely wiped out?" the Japanese army of the Fifth Division asked.

The Japanese army next to him immediately said: "It's true, the Fourth Division was indeed wiped out. It's only been a few days since the war started, and it's really terrible that a division has been wiped out by the Chinese. This is a full There are more than 28,000 divisions, even if it takes 28,000 pigs to kill you, it will take a long time! But the Chinese were also wiped out very quickly. It is said that all the people in the fourth division were killed Force the whole body to surrender, and almost no one can escape!"

"What are you talking about? If anyone dares to talk about the Fourth Division, then I will not be polite!" An officer immediately said angrily.

And the Japanese army also knew that the Fourth Division was wiped out and they couldn't hide it from others, so they didn't hide it from their soldiers, so the soldiers started talking. And these soldiers felt scared one after another, because a division was wiped out in less than three hours. A squadron with such combat effectiveness is really terrifying. And the other Japanese troops guessed how long it would take for the squadron to annihilate themselves? Because most of the soldiers in a division come from the same area, and there is little communication between soldiers between the two divisions. So they didn't know how bad their comrades in the Fourth Division were. They all thought they were very powerful, as powerful as themselves. If they knew that the Fourth Division was also a parallel importer, they would not lose confidence.

But they thought that the Fourth Division was as powerful as their own, so he made a mistake in comparing it, which made them wrongly estimate Wang Guorui's strength. They overestimated Wang Guorui's strength. This was especially true for ordinary soldiers, who overestimated Wang Guorui's strength, and also overestimated the strength of the Fourth Division. In this way, they also make their hearts deeply hit. On the contrary, I feel that there is no future in coming to Taiwan to fight.

"My God! I had a good life in Japan. Why did I come here to fight? And why do we have to fight the Chinese? Isn't the Chinese always our suzerain country? If we fight them, then we can Will we win the battle? We will not end well if we commit crimes as inferiors." A soldier said suddenly.

And what this soldier said immediately aroused the reaction of many Japanese soldiers, and someone immediately went on to say: "Yes! Originally, we followed China. We have been living very well, and they have not come to attack us in Japan. They still do business with us. And No special exploitation of us? But we actually want to fight them, and now we can't beat them at all. The Chinese are very powerful, we can't beat them!"

"It's the next crime, but ours is the next crime. There will be no good end!"

"Bastard, what are you talking about? Are you looking for death? The Chinese people have already been defeated by us, and they were killed by us in Liaodong. Are these all fake?" A Japanese officer immediately retorted, obviously he wanted to eliminate them as soon as possible. this kind of thought.

"Tigers doze off. Before the Chinese didn't know that we were going to rebel, so they were able to lose to us. But now the Chinese are ready, and he will take care of us with ease."

"Yes, yes! Once the Chinese wake up, he can slap us to death!" "Let's go home quickly. Ask the Chinese for forgiveness, so maybe they can let the past go!" "Let's hurry up Acknowledge your mistake, and use the benevolence and righteousness of the Chinese to be lenient. Then they shouldn’t care about us as a small country." "The nobles above are really, they actually went to war with the Chinese for a little money. Isn't this courting death?" " There is also a struggle for hegemony with the Chinese, can we defeat the Chinese?"

After experiencing the almost complete annihilation of the Guards Division, and now the overall surrender of the Fourth Division, the Japanese army lost two divisions at once. The Japanese army currently has only seven divisions in the country. There are still six divisions that are training and expanding, and the training has not been completed. So this time the entire Japanese army has lost almost one-third. This caused the morale of the Japanese army to plummet. The consequence of the sharp drop in morale is that they lost confidence in this war, especially for China, which lost the courage to intervene in World War I.

You must know that in the past thousands of years, Japan has always been a vassal state of China, and has always regarded itself as a vassal. And they all think so, from the emperor to the common people. So they are now coming to fight China, and they think this is the next crime. Except for a small number of high-level Japanese who want to annex China for their own interests and Japanese hegemony, ordinary people and soldiers at the bottom did not want to fight China from the beginning. When they launched the Sino-Japanese War of 1899-1895, many ordinary Japanese soldiers felt scared and felt that they were committing the following crimes.

However, after defeating China in the First Sino-Japanese War in history, Japan was able to truly feel that it was no worse than the Chinese. Only after going through wars again and again did they really gradually get rid of their psychological disadvantages to the Chinese. But now, Wang Guorui appeared, and beat the Japanese army to the point of death, so that Japan finally improved the Japanese people's inferiority complex towards the Chinese. Japan has not been able to completely get rid of their inferiority complex towards the Chinese, and this kind of thinking is still hidden in their hearts. It cannot be removed as a whole without the efforts of several generations. Originally, they were all well prepared, and they could be gradually removed after defeating China in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. But now they actually met Wang Guorui, Wang Guorui gave them a hard lesson, which revived their low self-esteem that had just been suppressed.

The inferiority complex that had been imprisoned because of the victory in the Sino-Japanese War of 1899-1895 was actually released again, all because Japan experienced defeat again. Only this time did they realize that they did not seem to be the opponents of the Chinese at all. They defeated the Chinese before, it was because the Chinese did not expect their rebellion, and they suffered a big loss accidentally. But now that the Chinese have decided, they may be able to defeat them easily without too much preparation. And the reality also showed this. Wang Guorui's army beat them to the ground with ease, leaving them helpless.

"What? The army below us actually has this idea? No, we must be able to get rid of this idea, otherwise the achievements of the Meiji Restoration of our Great Japanese Empire over the past few decades will be completely destroyed." Kawakami Cao Liu said angrily.

It's really a leak in the house and it rains at night. The defeat is already a headache enough, and the soldier will have the idea that he is not as good as the Chinese again. After decades of preparation, Japan finally defeated China once in the First Sino-Japanese War, and then built confidence in the domestic army and the people. But this kind of confidence came and went quickly, and after a few battles, this kind of inferiority complex towards the Chinese actually revived again. This is the most terrifying thing. If there is one thing that Japan gained the most from the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, it is confidence. As for those reparations, even the territory is secondary. Because Japan has been subject to the Central Plains Dynasty for thousands of years, they spent decades in order for the soldiers to have the courage to compete with the Central Plains Dynasty. But once an idea is planted, it may last a lifetime, or even several generations. And the thinking of the past thousands of years cannot be eliminated overnight. Even Emperor Meiji took decades to achieve initial results.

But now, they have just experienced a bad battle, and Wang Guorui wiped out one or two divisions. As a result, the morale of the soldiers immediately dropped. And the inferiority complex for the Chinese is stimulated again, this is the most terrifying place for Kawakami Caoliu. Once these soldiers return to the country and once again spread this kind of thinking to the Japanese civilians in the country, then the Japanese Yamato nation will once again lose the courage to dare to compete with the Chinese, which will destroy the spiritual will of the entire country.

No matter how poor a country is, no matter how poor its conditions are, it is not terrible. What is terrible is that once the national self-confidence is lost, that is the most terrible thing~www.readwn.com~ A nation without self-confidence cannot develop at all. Strictly speaking, Emperor Meiji prepared for decades before Japan gained national self-confidence and the courage to compete with China. It can be said that this self-confidence is the most precious wealth. After all, if a person lacks self-confidence and courage, no matter how good the economic conditions are, no matter how good the weapons are, they will lose. In fact, the Manchu Qing was like this. They had a huge land area, but they did not dare to fight against the enemy. In fact, if you really fight to the death, you won't lose. But he just didn't dare, that's why he lost.

But now this kind of thought that is not conducive to the self-confidence of the Japanese nation is spreading again in the Japanese army. This is the most terrifying thing for Kawakami Moroku. If these soldiers who have lost their confidence in fighting for the Chinese are brought back to China, then this kind of thinking will definitely be beaten back to its original form in Japan. At that time, how can Japan compete with China?

"Immediately order all the staff members to quickly formulate a battle plan. I want to win, a huge victory! I must win and boost the morale of the soldiers of the army and even the people in the country. If there is no victory, our loss will be very huge !” Kawakami said.

Soon, the Japanese army's staff department was up and running again, ready to formulate a battle plan that could defeat Wang Guorui. And they didn't know at all that their so-called battle plan would probably be sent to Wang Guorui within a few hours. (to be continued)
