This time, Zhou Ding did not plan to attack secretly, but to fight the US fleet in a real way.

The reason why they disguised themselves as Japanese and blatantly carried out robbery was not only to deliberately train the Houyi army's actual combat ability at sea, but more importantly, to put the hat of robbing various countries on the heads of the Japanese.

Although it was the first time for the Houyi Army to participate in actual combat at sea, after all, after a long period of regular exercises and training, it was to be prepared to fight the unprepared, to fight more and less, and to fight the weak with the strong.

As a result, Zhou Ding's fleet sank the four American frigates very smoothly, leaving only the central freighter.

At this time, a speedboat escaped from the freighter.

Zhou Ding smiled and said in his heart: It's good to escape! Even if you don't run away, I'll wait for the opportunity to let a few go, otherwise who will spread the news of the robbery of the Japanese fleet?

In order to play realistically, Zhou Ding immediately sent another battleship, shouting Japanese slogans, and pretended to chase for a while.

When it was about to catch up, the battleship pretended to malfunction and deliberately let go of the American speedboat.

Zhou Ding's next step is to deal with the Japanese, at this time, the relationship between Japan and other countries, of course, is as bad as possible!

He is not afraid that several other countries will not believe it, because in the nearby waters, only the Japanese fleet has the strength to defeat the frigates of several coalition forces in one fell swoop.

A few days later, the survivors in the United States returned home to report the looting.

Other countries are wondering why the fleet, which is long overdue for returning, has not returned. Could it be that the soldiers of the fleet ran away with the finances?

At this time, the Americans declared: 'The American fleet was attacked by the Japanese fleet, except for the freighters, and all of them were destroyed'.

As soon as the news came out, the world was in an uproar! Several other countries also believed that it was the Japanese who killed their own warships, and for a time, the slogan of destroying Japan was loud all over the world.

The Japanese are wronged! We are more wronged than Dou E! Our own fleet hasn't come back, can we still rob ourselves?

During this period, although Japan's national strength gradually became stronger, it was not arrogant enough to wrestle with half the world!

It is not necessary for these six countries to be dispatched together, and it will not be too difficult for Britain and France alone to destroy it with iron heart.

Originally, things were going very smoothly, but suddenly, the attitudes of several other countries changed!

Maybe Zhou Ding's methods were seen to be flawed, or maybe the Japanese were too strong in public relations, and soon after, several other countries gave up pursuing Japan and pointed the finger at Tsarist Russia!

Who told this polar bear to put water in his head, you know that other countries have been robbed, but your own country has not been robbed, how much you have made a lot of money in a muffled voice, and you are stupid to brag everywhere.

According to the theory that whoever gains is suspicious, the rest of the countries have reason to believe that it was the Tsarist Russians who disguised themselves as Japanese and robbed the countries.

The Japanese finally found a scapegoat, and even more so the desperate Black Tsarist Russia.

What the? The Russians didn't look like the soldiers of the day?

What's so hard about that? It must have been the Tsarist Russians who wanted to cover up and hired some Orientals to put on Japanese military uniforms and mislead other countries.

There is an old saying: "Don't suffer from few, but suffer from inequality, this sentence is the most appropriate to describe the current mentality of several other countries!

Why are we all robbed, and you are the only country out of the matter?

Even if there is no reason to prove that it was robbed by Tsarist Russia, several other countries cannot let the polar bears see the joke.

As a result, these countries have said: Japanese, in order to prove your innocence, go and kill the polar bears! We support you spiritually!

In order to win the understanding of several countries, Japan could only make a desperate bet, but fortunately, they had already planned to fight Tsarist Russia.

As a result, the great war between Japan and Tsarist Russia was advanced!

For Zhou Ding, although this result is different from what he expected, it is also very good! The only misfortune is that the war took place in the three northeastern provinces of China.

This is the sorrow of the weakness of the country, the two countries are fighting on your ground, what can you do?

Well? That's not true!

Because this spring, the Qing Dynasty has assigned the three northeastern provinces to Tsarist Russia, and the current three northeastern provinces should be the territory of Tsarist Russia!

In September, Zhou Ding established paper mills, steel mills, rubber factories and other relatively primitive and very gold-absorbing industries in Xishu, Shaanxi, Northeast China, Hebei and Shanghai.

Xingyi Wuguan has embarked on a normal track and entered a period of rapid development.

After Zhou Ding returned to Qiongzhou, he mobilized 20,000 Houyi troops and sent them to Taiwan.

The weapon used by the Houyi army is the most advanced water lianzhu rifle at present, such a rifle, even if it is the army of Tsarist Russia, is not equipped on a large scale, so in terms of weapons, Zhou Ding overpowered the Japanese.

There were not many Japanese soldiers stationed in Taiwan, because Japan had put its main combat strength into the Northeast Theater and was fighting against Tsarist Russia.

The troops left behind in Taiwan are more puppet soldiers recruited from the local area.

For these puppet soldiers, being a soldier carrying a gun is just to make a living, and it's okay to follow the Japanese army to fight a good battle and pick up cheap, but if the war doesn't go well, it will soon collapse.

The 20,000 soldiers of the Houyi Army, all of whom had undergone more than a year and a half of formal military training, had high morale, strict military discipline, and had no weaknesses except that they had never seen blood.

In the army, there are even political and ideological instructors selected by Zhou Ding, who always instilled in the Houyi army a sense of mission to expel the Japanese invaders, expel the Xiyi, and make the country rich and strong, and the spiritual outlook of the army completely exploded the enemy.

What's more, the Houyi Army also has Zhou Ding, a master of national art in the Dan period, and Zhou Ding's most powerful weapon: the prestige system.

In order to occupy Taiwan more quickly, Zhou Ding implemented the tactic of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle.

Quietly infiltrated the barracks and killed the chief officer of the Japanese side, without the chief officer, who will command the battle?

Infiltrate the arsenal and load all the Japanese ammunition into the system space, and without ammunition, see what you do to fight?

Sneak into the granary, take all the enemy's food, and if there is no food, see what you do to raise the soldiers?

In this battle, from the very beginning, Zhou Ding was a crushing posture, and it was not a level of battle at all.

Zhou Ding even released a message to the Japanese puppet army: the instrument surrendered, the past is not to blame, if the heart is to the Zhou family, you can also join the Zhou family's Houyi army.

The puppet army ran out of ammunition and food, and there was no commander to command, or the equipment surrendered, or the military uniform fled, all in all, Zhou Ding's battle was very smooth, and it only took more than a month to subdue the entire Taiwan.

During this period, Japan sent a fleet to support Taiwan, but unfortunately, the Japanese did not know that the fleet was the best thing for Zhou Ding to deal with.

Just like dealing with the Australian coalition forces, Zhou Ding didn't have to go to the sea to intercept at all, just waited for the Japanese warships to come to the Taiwan dock, and Zhou Ding waved them into the system space.
