Chapter 791: The Situation Clears Up with Worry
Kingdom of the Ryukyus, Jeju Island?
Zhang Qiang has not cared about things over there for a long time, and it is not his business how the Qing Dynasty fought with the Ryukyu Kingdom, in short, it consumes their strength, not the strength of the Huaxia Kingdom, even if it can improve the combat skills and experience of both of them a lot, it will be more difficult for the Huaxia Kingdom to deal with them in the future, but Zhang Qiang just does not interfere, because war is not a single thing.
This needs to consider the comprehensive national strength of both sides, although the Qing Dynasty has developed well in the past ten years, the population has increased, the Han people have died out, and some are just Han faces, some of the traditional Qing people of the Han people, which is more thorough than the people of Lu Guohong Chengchou when the Qing army was there.
Because the Huaxia Kingdom has been starting patriotic education for those people from the time of private school primary school, instilling the Chinese Han ideology, the current Huaxia Kingdom has actually become a country with a strong sense of identity.
As a famous Kangxi Emperor in history, can I not know what this action of the Huaxia Kingdom is for, as long as they are not confused, they will not be indifferent, so they also learn from the Huaxia Kingdom for patriotic education, but the relatively backward thing is that they educate the idea of loyalty to the monarch, and also put forward the Qing Dynasty population number, but it is not as much as the Huaxia Kingdom proposed, and the implementation is thorough.
The Huaxia Kingdom proposed that they are the Han people of China, the Chinese nation, the Kingdom of China, Zhang Qiang is their king, but the king and the nation are all for the country, are the strength of the cohesion of the country, you can not love the king, but you must love the country, love the nation, all for the interests of the nation, no matter where you go, you must remember that you are a Chinese person, a Chinese person of the Chinese kingdom, not a Han person of other kingdoms.
In short, this set of complex theories and ideological education is to unite the people, in order to serve the entire kingdom, the Qing Dynasty learned, so the cohesion of the Qing people also existed, the Han people forgot that they were the people of the Chinese nation, and directly turned into the Great Qing people, which is the same as where the Han people in the Western Regions were conquered directly turned into Han people who believe in Allah, anyway, there is something to eat, I live with you, I am your people, you let you believe what you believe, and then their faith is very firm.
Because Allah cannot be betrayed, and Allah has a set of ways to make this belief passed down for thousands of years, not like the beliefs of the Han people, fluttering and uncertain, never passed on for thousands of years, it is the Han people who inherit the thousand years, not the faith, and the Han people are always changing.
Zhang Qiang felt that he was entangled in the cohesion of the Han people every day, the Han people are constantly striving for self-improvement, how can the Han people be more patriotic than people in other countries, and not be induced by interests and money.
It's not patriotic directly, but betrayal, they directly blame the country, as Japanese, Americans, and Soviets, directly accuse the country of how it is, and how strong the countries they represent, not like these people after the 70s, even if they go to other countries, they are still patriotic, even if they get the nationality of other countries, they still have a helpless but pure heart for the country, their helplessness is because they can't live, there is no security, and they are helpless about the country, not strong, And those born later in the late 80s are people who have completely denied the country, from a yellow-skinned and white-hearted person to a person from other countries who can't wait to become completely black-hearted and white-skinned after plastic surgery.
But don't you want them to do anything for the country, have they sacrificed for the poverty and weakness of the country?
If you don't stay at home, even if you are alive and move bricks and tiles for the country every day, you can do a little bit of strength, but go to other countries, pay taxes to others, dedicate to others, and in turn blame the country with the attitude of other people, accusing the people in the country of not having the superiority they have ever had.
After reporting on the battle between the Ryukyu Kingdom of the Three Princes and the Qing Dynasty, the attendants left.
The army of the Ryukyu Kingdom regained control of the sea and seized Jeju Island, but the casualties were heavy, nearly 100,000 Japanese people sent by the Ryukyu Kingdom to Kyushu Island were killed, or betrayed, and then killed by the troops of the third prince who recaptured Jeju Island, and the Han people who remained were also killed, the number of dead reached 150,000, and the number of soldiers killed in the battle reached 100,000, although it was only a few servant troops, but it also greatly damaged the strength of the Ryukyu Kingdom.
If we add those Han soldiers, regular army soldiers, and the indigenous militias of Southeast Asia and Nanyang, and those indigenous people who were immigrated from the Chinese Kingdom to the Ryukyu Kingdom, the total number of deaths reached 250,000, and 50,000 were injured, of which 10,000 were seriously injured and 20,000 were lightly and seriously injured, which is basically equivalent to the kind of injuries of crippled people, and 20,000 may be healed and then become regular army soldiers within the establishment.
Regular army soldiers become elite troops.
Such heavy casualties, one is that the Qing Dynasty had a lot of troops, and the other is that both sides used trench warfare, which proved to be the best meat grinder tactic.
In addition, in terms of sailors, although the Qing army suffered heavy losses, there were 1,200 ships the size of fishing boats lost, and nearly 800 warships of less than 200 tons were sunk and destroyed, and the injuries were not less than 300 ships, including the kind of turtle boats in Goguryeo, the tall fishing boats in Liaodong, and many armed merchant ships under 200 tons left by the Taixi people to the Qing Dynasty.
Large warships, more than 300 tons have also lost ninety percent, nearly 200 are gone, battleships, that kind of Daifuku ships are even more lost, after all, the Ryukyu Kingdom is equipped with the warships of the Huaxia Kingdom, although there are not many but the combat ability is strong.
One is not to say against dozens of ships, but when the scale is increased, a detachment will definitely be able to fight against the enemy's nearly fifty or sixty large and small ships, from fishing boats including warships, to a group of people with sticks against a man with a few revolvers, and they can wound and kill people, but their casualties must be huge.
As a result, the third prince of the Ryukyu Kingdom sadly found that only 20 of his nearly 500 warships and warships were left, and even the Portuguese who helped them were beaten to a pitiful three, and many people were captured by the Qing army.
So the third prince found that even if he won the war, his sailors were also wiped out, leaving nearly 100 transport ships of 300 tons to 600 tons and cantons, which were definitely stronger than the remnants of the current Qing army sailors, but it was unacceptable to the powerful third prince who had become accustomed to the sailors of the Huaxia Kingdom.
After refitting the remaining merchant ships, he withdrew his troops from Japan's Chugoku Island to Jeju Island, handed over the defense of Chugoku Island to Kong Youxing, and completely withdrew from the war between the Huaxia Kingdom and the Japanese.
Five 600-ton warships and 30 300-ton warships were refitted, and the rest of the warships were withdrawn to the Ryukyu Kingdom to defend the mainland.
The Kingdom of the Ryukyus is now weak again.
It can be said that the battle of the third prince this time was quite tragic, and the losses were also quite heavy, although Zhang Qiang's Japanese strategy was damaged, and the defense of the Chinese island was weakened by half, but compared to their losses, the loss of the Ryukyu Kingdom was the heaviest, Zhang Qiang thought, the third prince must have fallen into deep self-blame now, because the Huaxia army condemned and dissatisfied with their occupation of Jeju Island instead of directly transporting troops to the Japanese island, helping the Huaxia army attack Japan, and now not only the relationship with the Huaxia army has been damaged, He also suffered heavy losses.
Not only did they lose their population, but they also lost nearly half of their elite troops, and their remaining forces were only able to defend Jeju Island and the mainland, and the sailors could not face the attacks of other kingdoms with warships and warships, such as Zheng Chenggong's kingdom of Australia.
Of course, it is impossible for the Kingdom of Australia to attack them, thousands of miles apart, and it will take half a year to attack them on the road, even if the fleet attacks quickly, just to fight a small battle with their sailors, they have to walk quickly for four months, and they may not be able to meet their fleet, that is to say, a labor expedition, the Kingdom of Australia will have to take a year to operate, and it will not be able to stay here for a long time, and it will not be able to supply supplies.
Although the Huaxia Kingdom does business with the Kingdom of Australia, in addition to business, Zhang Qiang will not let the Zheng family have the opportunity to get involved in the nearby territory, even if he can board it to take a break, he can only let the caravan and a small number of ships dock to trade, and he has to be under the supervision of the Huaxia military and naval division throughout the whole process.
Now the situation is quite clear, the Dajin Kingdom has perished, the Huaxia army needs the monk Kexi and Wu Sangui to fight in the north, although the Qing State has obtained Shanxi Prefecture and a large area of grassland land, but they also suffered heavy losses, the troops can not continue to fight, and they have to rebuild Shanxi Prefecture that was destroyed by the war, and Ao Bai was recalled to Yanjing because of such a war exploit to destroy the country, promoted and raised, and began the era of his flying and domineering in the army of the Qing Dynasty.
In the Qing Dynasty now, no one can compare to him in terms of military merits, at least no one can compare with him in the youth of Emperor Kangxi in this era.
Duolong was defeated, although he fled back, he had to be a man with his tail between his legs, Suo Etu took away his military power in Hebei Prefecture to defend the Huaxia Kingdom, and Nalan Mingzhu began his own path of civil power and ministerhood, of course, it has not reached the height he has in the future, and he is not an important figure now, but he has also begun to become outstanding like Suo Etu.
The Ryukyu Kingdom was secretly wounded and secretly wept.
The development of the new Roku province entered the fast lane, and the Shikoku province began to become stable, just like the previous Siro province, defense plus development.
Kong Youxing gained control of the island of China, Chen Bing's 300,000 defeated generals in the face of the remnants of the Japanese who had been repeatedly attacked were full of interest, and when he was full of interest and ambition, a paper order allowed him to return to the center to meet his niece Kong Sizhen, where the general was replaced by Brother Zhu, who had just returned from the front line, and the staff officer of the General Staff who had just studied for a few days took up his post again and took charge of the side.
