"Is that? You really need to pay attention!" Akiyama Yoko frowned. Even with his identity as a lieutenant general, as well as the father of the Japanese cavalry, and his outstanding military achievements since previous wars, Akiyama Yoko respected and valued the not-too-high Akashi Motojiro next to him, who was not very tall and had a brilliant record. This guy may not be very good at fighting, but in other aspects, especially in the hidden front, he is simply too strong. He is a good player in both "civil war" and "foreign war"! He is known as the God of Japanese intelligence within the Japanese army!

Before the Russo-Japanese War, Akashi Motojiro served as an military officer stationed in Russia. He had a deep understanding of Russian society and army and provided a large number of situations for the Japanese government. During the Russo-Japanese War, he met with the leaders of the Bolshevik political party exiled in Europe and contributed funds to the latter to cause riots in Russia. It made Russia in a state of internal and external difficulties in the Russo-Japanese War. It can be said that the victory of the Russo-Japanese War was great! It is no less than those generals who fought on the front line.

This man also made outstanding achievements in the "civil war". In the recent "Siemens incident", Akashi Motojiro also helped Yamamoto Aritomo to kill Yamamoto's Cabinet, which was the father of the Japanese Navy, and even allowed the latter to be transferred to the reserve service. This greatly suppressed the increasingly inflated naval influence, allowing the Japanese 6th Army to finally take a breath. If the Japanese Navy had not beaten the Americans again recently and regained some reputation, the Japanese 6th Army would have a great chance to completely suppress the navy! As a member of the 6th Army, from this point of view, Yoko Akiyama would be very grateful to Akashi Motojiro who helped the 6th Army expand his influence!

Akashi Motojiro can be said to be one of the key factors that greatly reduces the influence of the navy and is also the main player, playing an important role in this "Siemens Incident"!

As the saying goes, crows are as black as crows in the world. Are crows not black during the Meiji period in Japan? That's impossible! Japanese officials also need to make some "extra money"! And they fall from above, from home to abroad, from Germany to Britain, and the Japanese take kickbacks and extra money without any mercy!

This is the case. The person who exposed this incident was actually very insignificant. This incident was born in 1910 and started with a typist at Siemens' office in Japan. Although the man named Carl Richter is not at a high level, as a liaison officer, he has contacts with Siemens' senior management and the Japanese Navy. He was once one of the witnesses of several bribery incidents.

Otherwise, Siemens NB, although it is a German company, it is also one of the main suppliers of electrical and communication equipment on the main ship of the Japanese navy. In order to ensure that their products can win the bid, some additional benefits will naturally be given. Otherwise, if the British give it, you don’t give it to the Germans, why should the Japanese choose yours? What? You said that the Japanese officers performed their duties at that time? What did you think? Who gave you this illusion?

Siemens spent a lot of money to preserve this wealth! In each order, Siemens had to spend about 15 yuan to the top executives who had been engaged in equipment procurement in the medium and long term in the Japanese Navy! This is self-evident for the Japanese Navy! Everyone understands that no one has paid a lot of money.
