Why did Japan dare to start the Russo Japanese War?

Why did Japan dare to start the Russo-Japanese War? Of course, Japan is getting longer and longer, then this is a truth, defeating Japan and daring to start the Russo-Japanese War, he has a life-saving card in his hand, and if he does not have that life-saving card, he will definitely not start the Russo-Japanese War.

Japan actually chose to start the Russo-Japanese War, of course, it has a certain chance of winning, because generally you don't have a chance of winning, you don't go to war with another country, you don't lose your own, well, the country's population. You won't let some people lose their lives in vain, I don't think people in every country should be so stupid, that is, they will send their own people to death.

No country's citizens deserve to die, and of course no country's leader will take the initiative to send his country's people to lose their lives in vain, so Japan thinks that he has a certain chance of winning in the Russo-Japanese War, and he thinks he can win this battle. In the end, of course, he won.

What is the use of soldiers and nobles when there are many people, but not many. Old China had a population of 400 million, the largest in the world. But it is the weakest in the world.

Although in the Sino-Japanese War of 1895, China suffered a great loss. In 1905, however, the most imminent threat to China was Russia. The Qing court was unable to do so, so it adopted the method of using bandits to defend against bandits, declaring neutrality and using the Japanese against the Russians.

Although, nominally, in accordance with international law, neutrality was declared. But Li Hongzhang secretly supported the Japanese. The intelligence system controlled by the Qing government also secretly supported Japan.

The Russo-Japanese War, the focus of the struggle between the two armies, in fact, was logistics.

With the covert support of the Qing court, the logistics of the Japanese army were almost unimpeded, and they were very close to the Japanese mainland. And the military supplies of the Russian army need to be transported through the Trans-Siberian Railway, tens of thousands of kilometers! At that time, the Trans-Siberian Railway was a single line, very fragile, and had low transport speed and capacity.

The focus of the naval struggle between the two sides is whether the Russian Pacific Fleet can hold out until the arrival of the Baltic support fleet. As a result, the Pacific Fleet, which was blockaded in Vladivostok and came to reinforce the Baltic Fleet tens of thousands of nautical miles away, was ambushed in the Tsushima Strait by the Japanese Hoyun Navy led by Heihachiro Togo, and the whole army was annihilated. The territory is huge, and the first place cannot take care of each other, which is the disadvantage of the Russian army.

The logistics and transportation are more convenient than those of the Russian army, and the Japanese army is the advantage of fighting bravely and not afraid of death. In addition, the covert support of the Qing court.
