The Military Ruled the Country: a History of Modern Japanese Militarist Adventures (from Meiji to Taisho)
by Zhao Kai
About This Novel
This book focuses on an extremely radical era of change in Japan's modern history. After the Sino-Japanese War, Japan annexed the Korean Peninsula and mobilized its entire country to compete with Tsarist Russia for the Northeast. At the same time, agents in China were fostered to become the driving force behind the warlords' melee, until they invaded China with arms. The offensive and defensive battle between Japan and Germany around Qingdao during World War I was once hidden in historical data. The intervention in the Soviet revolution and the military action of sending troops to Siberia further reflected the complicated political and military game in Japan. This book will take the history from the Sino-Japanese War of 1894 to the end of World War I as a clue, follow the footsteps of Japan's military expansion, and show readers the history of the Japanese military gradually becoming the master of the country.
