Chapter 712: The Post-Lu Era
died, Zhang Qiang quickly learned through the information collected by the intelligence department that when the war was almost desperate, the Japanese sent ninja warriors to assassinate the king of Lu who was forced to fight, which is something that the Japanese often do in desperate times.
In the previous battle, with the advancement of the war, although the national strength of the Lu State was weak, under the persecution and support of the Huaxia Kingdom, with advanced tactics and advanced weapons, it continued to defeat the Japanese shogunate ruling group that was still in the samurai era, and Japan has now retreated to the islands on the side of Hokkaido.
Almost half of Japan fell, and Lu took the opportunity to gather a lot of manpower and many people.
These nationals are the Han Chinese, Manchus, and Mongols who were wandering in Japan before, as well as those Han businessmen who have hippie smiling faces and dead spirits, who have long betrayed the nation and the country, and now know that the Han kingdom has hit Japan itself, and they are speculating vigorously in order to survive.
If it is the Kingdom of China, there is only one place for this kind of person, the punishment camp, either the prisoner or the hard labor camp.
Ordinary citizens will not let them be, because they have not made any contribution to the Chinese nation, but which one is to dismantle Taiwan, this is a cancer, this is a hidden danger, Zhang Qiang's governance concept, this group of people can only be consumed, and they will not even have the opportunity to reduce their sentences through various performances, become prisoners, and then become ordinary people, and reintegrate into the Chinese kingdom.
Lu State obtained war dividends, population, according to the latest intelligence Lu State statistics, Lu State this time gathered about a million people, these are actually willing to follow Lu State, Lu State emptied Kagoshima, these Han people who are willing to become Lu State, as well as wandering Japanese samurai and civilians to Kagoshima, settled down.
About 100,000 Han Chinese received the Ryukyu Kingdom to replenish the population of the region.
The population of the island of Lu exceeded 400,000 people, plus the population of his own army.
The newly recruited army of the Lu army alone has 50,000 troops, if it is the original population of more than 100,000 plus nearly 70,000 troops, the Lu country would not dare to do this, but now there is a garrison of the Huaxia Kingdom on the island, and there is no security problem for other kingdoms, you said that you want to guard against the Huaxia Kingdom, forget it, the total strength of the island is only 30,000 troops, in fact, the real strength is only 10,000, scattered on the five large islands, the main island has 5,000 regular troops, and the others are temporarily recruited young farmers, merchants, nobles, and officials' children, Is it okay to let these people go to war?
The garrison of the Huaxia Army has 50,000 troops, including 10,000 troops of the Marine Corps of the Marine Division, 10,000 troops of an elite militia brigade continuously mobilized, two garrison brigades, 12,000 troops, plus 15,000 troops of the garrisoned fleet, and 3,000 merchants or other militia units that were previously stationed here, for a total strength of 50,000 troops.
Lu Guo, who had 60,000 troops to the front line and only 10,000 regular troops, is now a prisoner who has been seen to die, do you think he still has a chance to resist?
This is the same as the situation in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, when the great powers of various countries were on the coast and the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty had no room for resistance.
Now that the country of Lu has obtained the population of Japan, it immediately immigrated 100,000 people to its own country, filling the population lost due to conscription, war, and conscription, so that counting the troops and people on the front line, it has just exceeded 400,000 people.
The population of Kagoshima is still unstable, not counting the population of their own country, although there are as many as one million, but who knows that after the defeat of the war, these populations will not belong to the country of Lu.
The fighting on the front line became more and more intense, and Lu had to re-recruit and mobilize 100,000 young men from among these populations to support the front line.
Japan has 150,000 regular troops and 350,000 auxiliary troops, and it is about to be a decisive battle, Lu has 60,000 regular troops on the front line, and 30,000 people who have been recruited one after another.
With the elongation of the battle line, the strength of the Lu State is stretched, in the face of the resistance of the disobedient Japan, they are even more anxious, if this battle is defeated, they will never turn over, the island is controlled by the Huaxia Army, and the Japanese island troops are not enough to fully occupy Japan, at this time Hong Chengchou was stabbed to death by the Japanese assassins, and the political situation of the Lu State fell into turmoil.
Kong Youxing was anxious, and swayed from side to side, he really didn't know what to do, a large group of civil and military officials of Lu State hoped that Hong Chengchou's son would take over the king's power, and Hong Chengchou's sons also continued to win over various departments, and Lu State almost fell into a state of separation, and at this moment the soldiers had no heart to fight.
Kong Youxing has seen the day when the Lu State will fall.
Feng Quan is different from him, at this moment Feng Quan is also a headache from this incident, but he has his own opinions, although he is old, but his eyes are bright, he knows that at this moment the Lu country is not saved, let Hong Chengchou's sons take over the king's power, it is impossible for the Lu country to continue, and he, as the second person in this kingdom, the prime minister of the royal family, seems to be beautiful, and the strength he has can make a difference in one fell swoop, but he knows, so what?
Soon he will fall into the quagmire of fighting for power and profit with Hong Chengchou's sons, and after many days of co-opting with Hong Chengchou's sons and various lobbying of civil and military officials, Feng Quan said to the servants: "Go and prepare a pair of clothes and hats, and give me a copy of my name card to Lord Zhao's mansion, and say that I will visit him tonight." ”
In the evening, after he hurriedly put on his makeup, he followed an inconspicuous slave who had been purchased and walked towards Zhao Hui, the commander of the Huaxia Army's garrison in Lu, in the appearance of an inferior family member of the Feng Mansion.
The two of them retreated left and right, discussed in the secret room for half the night, and the next morning several carrier pigeons flew up from Zhao's mansion and disappeared into the open sea.
Back at the mansion, Feng Quan didn't care about the tiredness, holding the tea, and kept drinking tea, he knew that the Lu Kingdom was over, and if he wanted to continue to live, he could only rely on the Huaxia Kingdom, so he saw Zhao Hui and showed his intentions straight to the point.
Zhao Hui was very surprised, he didn't expect that the second person in Lu Guo would come to him, and hurriedly received him, and after talking for half the night to make sure that what Feng Quan said was not like a temptation and perfunctory, he hurriedly used the carrier pigeon in the army to ask the Ministry of Defense, as the son of Zhao Siyang, the artillery director directly under the Ministry of National Defense, he had some face in Wei Wuji, so his carrier pigeon flew directly to Wei Wuji's mansion.
Jin Qi did not look for the Ministry of Military Intelligence, because he was afraid that the Ministry of Military Intelligence would delay the development of the situation by transmitting information from one level to the next, and now Lu State is a powder keg that is about to explode, and it cannot help but make people anxious, if Hong Chengchou's sons have their own forces to launch and seize power, Lu State will immediately collapse and fall into chaos.
Because Hong Chengchou's imprint is too strong, Feng Quan has already made it clear that he doesn't know if he can control the situation, if it's just a war of words in the court, he is not afraid of anything, and he can still master the civil and military officials, but in front of Hong Chengchou's sons in the name of righteousness, in this era of alternating royal power, Feng Quan, as a courtier, can only choose one allegiance, and can not have any resistance.
Otherwise, you can only be spurned.
But if he was on the wrong side, his life would not be guaranteed.
