"Your Excellency, the construction of the Navy's aircraft carriers and battleships, as well as a large number of cruisers and destroyers, needs to be accelerated. However, this requires a lot of resources." Admiral Yoshida Zengo said.
The island country is originally a country with extremely scarce resources. In the past, the army and navy of the island country were able to expand their military strength crazily, but they received strong support from the United States. The United States has provided a large amount of various war materials to the island countries. But now, the United States has personally entered the war. Moreover, it also suffered a fiasco. This makes the United States also have to increase its own military production capacity, so as to have a strong strength.
Under such circumstances, it is unnecessary to know that the United States will definitely not provide so many resources to island countries as before. Therefore, if the island country wants to expand its military strength, resources will become an important bottleneck.
Prime Minister Mitsumasa Minai couldn't help but frowned. The problem of resources is indeed a big problem restricting the development of the island country. It is precisely because of this that they were coerced by the Americans and went to war against Germany.
"How much resources can we plunder from Dutch Indonesia?" asked Prime Minister Mitsumasa Minei.
"Your Excellency, the development of Indonesia by the Dutch is not complete. They are more about plundering the wealth there. Therefore, it will take time for us to develop the resources there. In addition, Indonesia's resources alone are not enough. It’s not enough to support our military expansion.” The Sixth General Hata Toshi also said.
There is no doubt that Indonesia is rich in resources. However, if you want to develop vigorously, it will take time. What the island country lacks most now is time.
"Your Excellency, the Philippine Islands are also very rich in resources. Especially iron ore and copper mines. The Americans have also vigorously developed these resources in the Philippine Islands before. If we can obtain these resources, then our pressure will be Much smaller." Admiral Yoshida Zengo said.
However, it is not so easy to use the resources on the Philippine Islands. Although, the island country has already occupied the Philippines. But in fact, everyone is very clear about what is going on. They only occupied the Philippine Islands in name. In fact, all affairs on the Philippine Islands are in charge of the Philippine government supported by the United States. The United States is the de facto owner of the Philippine Islands.
"Your Excellency, we can start negotiations with the Americans on this. We still recognize the Philippine Islands as a colony of the Americans. However, in order to defeat the Germans, we need resources there. After we have defeated the Germans, we will return the Philippine Islands To the Americans. Big deal, give them some compensation. I believe that in order to defeat the Germans, the Americans will not care too much about this issue." Foreign Minister Hachiro Arita said.
Prime Minister Mitsumasa Minai nodded: "Arita-kun, this task is entrusted to you."
"Hi, Prime Minister!" Hachiro Arita nodded.
"Masters, is there any other way that we can have more resources, further develop our military strength, and help us defeat the Germans?" Prime Minister Minai Mitsumasa asked.
"Your Excellency, the Germans are too powerful. If we want to defeat the Germans, we need more resources. I think we can increase the collection of various materials in the occupied areas to realize the strategy of supporting war with war. In this way, we will undoubtedly be able to obtain more resources to tide over the difficulties!" Prime Minister Sakurauchi Yukio suggested.
"Well, this is a way. Although we only occupy Dutch Indonesia now. However, there are many rich people there. If their wealth can be plundered into our hands, it will be a great deal for us. Supplement. As we capture more and more territories in the later stage, we will be able to plunder more resources, further enhance our strength, and ensure that we can win the war." General Jun Jun Hata also agreed with this .
"Okay, since everyone agrees with this method, let's implement it officially! In order for the empire to win, we must do our best!" Minai Mitsumasa said.
Although, the German navy defeated the U.S. Navy in the Azores, which made the top navies of the island nation panic. However, the character of the islanders is inherently paranoid. They knew that they had already broken their faces with the Germans, and it was undoubtedly impossible for them to withdraw from the war with the Germans. Therefore, the only thing they can do is to further enhance their own strength so that they can defeat the Germans in one fell swoop in future wars. Even though this is a very difficult task, after the animal nature in the bones of the islanders is aroused, they dare to work hard like this, and are willing to work hard like this.
After the meeting, Mitsumasa Minai, in the name of the Prime Minister, once again issued an order to the major shipyards, asking them to further speed up the production of warships. At the same time, it also requires the various departments of the Southern Army to collect more resources in the occupied areas to prepare for the continuation of the war.
However, as the former Minister of the Navy, Prime Minister Minai Mitsumasa retained Admiral Yoshida Zengo after the meeting.
"Yoshida-kun, the navy is under a lot of pressure right now?" Prime Minister Mitsumasa Yonei asked.
"Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister. The Germans are too powerful. They were able to defeat the Americans at such a small cost. Obviously, the military strength of the Germans has exceeded our estimates." General Yoshida Zengo said.
Prime Minister Minai Mitsumasa nodded: "The Germans are indeed the most powerful country in the world. Not everyone can challenge their maritime supremacy. Even though the Americans have prepared for so long and possessed such a powerful force, they still failed to succeed. .”
This also put the navy of the island country under a lot of pressure. They all know very well that it is undoubtedly very difficult to defeat the German navy with the strength of the island navy. Before, they put their hopes on the Americans, but now it seems that the Americans are also unreliable!
"Yoshida-kun, now we have no other choice but to rely on our own strength as much as possible. The government will find a way to increase the strength of the navy as much as possible so that the navy can fight against the German navy." Prime Minister Minai Mitsumasa Said.
In the current island country, there is no other way but to go all the way to the black. Moreover, the strength of the island nation's navy is still not weak, and it is still growing. Therefore, the navy of the island country is not completely powerless to fight back.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, we will do our best!" Admiral Yoshida Zengo assured.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
