Thanks to Goxinga's vigorous promotion of telegraphs in East Asia, the French consul made Renault's prediction come true, and Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia in Southeast Asia, as well as Nepal in Central Asia, declared war on Japan every few days. Several children from Southeast Asia gathered in Bangkok for a meeting, discussing how to use this declaration of war to take advantage of the eldest brother, Nepal on the other side of the Himalayas was much more sincere, and they directly sent troops to the war.

Of course, Nepal's dispatch of troops is mainly symbolic, and although they sent troops earlier than the Qing Dynasty and North Korea, it is not certain whether they can catch up. Nepal's 150-strong army was quickly assembled and reassembled, and then marched majestically and vigorously by land to Japan, and was expected to reach Shandong within two years. As for the crossing of the sea, it had to be arranged by the Qing Dynasty and Northern Manchuria, who had never seen so much water.

The Qing Dynasty enjoyed this feeling of the stars holding the moon very much, and the Tongzhi Emperor issued a series of edicts, praising the performance of the vassal states very hard. Originally, he still wanted to give a heavy reward, but he was stopped by Yi Xin, who was clear about international relations, and Su Shun, who was slamming the door, so except for the holy decree sent by telegram, there was no actual material reward delivered. Of course, the Qing Dynasty still wants to be faced, and the subject countries can't help but appreciate it, but Su Shun thought of a good excuse, the reward is there, but the transportation is not suitable, and the next time these subject countries come to pay tribute, they will come to Beijing to get it.

North Manchurian is also very satisfied with the performance of the subject country, these guys are not useful and not to mention, at least they have created an international atmosphere, and it is better to fight in a group than to go heads-up. And the kind of crisis that Britain and France expected, North Manchuria also saw, of course, North Manchuria saw not a crisis, but a huge opportunity. Therefore, Zou Degui personally called Nanyang Minister Zhiyuan, asking him to take this opportunity to promote the military and political alliance of Southeast Asian countries in one fell swoop. However, Britain and France are also eyeing Southeast Asia, so this matter is not suitable for Zhiyuan to come forward, and after several discussions, Zhiyuan sent his proud disciple - Yu Caisan, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Lanfang.

The Lanfang Republic is the puppet of North Manchuria, every move is decided by Changchun, and even the residence of the Minister of Nanyang in North Manchuria is located in the capital of the Lanfang Republic, but the Lanfang Republic is an independent country after all, and North Manchuria has been trying to create an illusion that the Lanfang Republic can be independent. Therefore, as a member of Southeast Asia, the Republic of Lanfang participated in the conference in Bangkok, although it will also attract the attention of Britain and France, but it will not cause too many waves, and when Britain and France find out about the abnormality, the things to be done in North Manchuria have already been completed.

The international situation was very good, but the situation on the Japanese battlefield was not good, and the troops who left Goxinga for the first time were screwed. The troops under the command of Tan Shaoguang did not lose the battle, but there was a major strategic mistake, and the reason for this mistake was a communication error at the top of North Manchuria. When Guo Xing'a threw everything to Tan Shaoguang, he once said that he wanted to destroy the sun, but he also emphasized that this was what he and the cabinet meant, and after saying this, Guo Xing'a ran home to play. However, in Tan Shaoguang's follow-up docking with Pi Runmin, the cabinet made it clear several times that annexation would inevitably not be tolerated by the international community, so the purpose of this war was to eliminate the Japanese government and establish a puppet regime in Japan from North Manchuria.

The destruction of Japan and the elimination of the Japanese government are not the same, Tan Shaoguang is not sure what to do, and then he wants to go to Guo Xing'a to ask for an understanding, but Guo Xing'a is gone. Several military bigwigs gathered to discuss everything, and they all felt that the destruction of the sun that Guo Xinga said and the destruction of the sun said by the cabinet were the same meaning, so they formulated a set of battle plans to attack the Japanese Meiji government.

If the strategic purpose is to annihilate Japan, it should take advantage of Japan's geographical disadvantage of being composed of many islands and take advantage of the great opportunity of the annihilation of its navy to divide and encircle Shikoku, Kyushu, Honshu, and Hokkaido, and then break them one by one to smash and destroy all Japanese resistance forces. But if it were just a blow to Japan's Meiji government, the routine would be completely different. There is no need to make a big move, just take Tokyo directly, break the current Japanese regime in one fell swoop, capture or strangle the Japanese emperor, and then set up another puppet.

The cabinet was bent on reducing costs and was very concerned about international influence, so it only wanted to get rid of the Meiji government, and Goheinga disappeared with three wives, and the General Staff Headquarters could only implement the cabinet's opinion. In the early morning of October 16, the ninth year of Tongzhi, the army, navy, and air force of North Manchuria, assembled 21 Sea Wolf-class destroyers, 12 Sea Lion-class cruisers, 120 bombing airships, and 70 transport ships.

Five days was enough time for the Japanese to recover from their last giant stick, and they re-strengthened the shore defense batteries, deployed a defense in depth from Edo Port to the city of Tokyo, and are currently desperately reinforcing the fortifications of Tokyo. Whether North Manchurian was just going to teach them a lesson, or whether it was really going to rush in and fight, the Japanese didn't know at all, but they had to be fully prepared, otherwise the disaster of national destruction was in front of them. Before going to Taiwan to cause trouble, the Japanese knew that North Manchuria would definitely react, but no one expected that North Manchuria's reaction would be so strong. Japan will definitely not be able to win, and can only hope to block the first wave of offensive in North Manchuria, and then negotiate peace with North Manchuria.

The Japanese were almost ready, and Operation Heavenly Punishment officially began. On the night of 15 October, 120 airships lifted off from the Busan mooring ground and arrived over Tokyo on time in the early morning of 16 October. The Japanese stared at the sea, ready to meet the angry artillery fire of Northern Manchuria, and then the real killers flew from behind them. Taking advantage of the cover of night, all six airship formations unknowingly entered the designated position, and then began the first large-scale air raid on Tokyo. Three formations of sixty airships began to methodically bombard fortifications and defensive positions in depth beyond the reach of naval guns. Because the destructive power of solidification* to the fortified positions is average, the airships of these three formations are all equipped with high-explosive shells and anti-personnel *. For a moment, there was a rumbling thunder in and around Tokyo, and even though the dawn had appeared, the fortified positions looked even darker, and the dust obscured everything, and also covered the wailing and blood.

The other three formations aimed their sights at the inner city of Tokyo. The North Manchurian Air Force is the world's first air armed force, and other countries have two hot air balloons at most. Therefore, there is no international treaty against the Air Force, and even if there were, Goxinga never thought of complying with it, and all the 480 tons of solidification* were tilted into the city of Tokyo. The aviation did not go out of their way to look for targets, they just threw the ammunition down, and they simply came to kill people, and they did not care who they killed, as long as it was Japanese. Of course, in order to have a better effect, they deliberately tightened the formation to make the landing point of * more concentrated.

Coagulation* is a generous gift specially prepared for the Japanese in Koxinga, and after the explosion of this treasure, the napalm splashed on the body is like lard paste, sticky and resistant to burning. If a person uses his hands to slap the fire, the more he shoots, the bigger the fire, and if he rolls on the ground to extinguish the fire, he will get the whole body on fire. And once there is more fire on people, the people on the side will also be unlucky, because the struggle of the person on fire can easily throw the burning oil block on others to form a secondary killing effect. If it is for humanitarian reasons, it is advisable to end the life of the person on fire with a gun. Because for the victim of coagulation*, death is the greatest relief. Even sometimes just a little burn on the hand, they won't survive because they're all poisoned. There are also many chemical accelerants in napalm, some of which also add white phosphorus, which will leave a large amount of highly toxic chemicals after the burning of the human epidermis, which will enter the bloodstream through the open wound of the burn wound, causing blood poisoning of the wounded. Even if a lucky few survive, the pain of the wounded as they wash their wounds can be imagined, and their wails can make people feel like they are in hell.

This treasure exploded in a city full of reinforced concrete, and the killing effect would be a little smaller, after all, reinforced concrete is not combustible. However, there is no reinforced concrete in Japan that cannot be burned, and their buildings are all made of wood, and a lot of paper is used. Even if the napalm is killed, the high temperature generated can ignite the surrounding buildings, and then spread the purgatory-like sea of fire without limit. Large-scale flames consume large amounts of oxygen, and even if some lucky ones escape the flames, they will die of suffocation.

After the city of Tokyo was in flames, the 33rd capital battleships lined up in the inland waters of Edo Port and covered the shore defense positions and suspicious targets in Edo Port for two hours. The large-caliber main guns and small-caliber rapid-fire guns formed a barrage, and began to pour fire on the Japanese positions like carpet bombing.

In the morning light, the samurai looked desperately at the sea of fire behind them, although they had seen the airship, but they could not understand the concept of air attack, so they all thought that the enemy had crossed them and the city of Tokyo had fallen. The fleet at sea began to bombard the samurai, but the samurai could not fight back, and the enemy ships were all out of their range. The fortifications were reduced to ruins with a loud rumbling sound, the severed limbs and severed arms flew in the air, and the dark red dust obscured the heavens and the earth, and the samurai could no longer see everything except the faint light of the fire of Tokyo City.

As the commander of the fort was the first to bow in the direction of the Imperial Palace in Tokyo, and then pulled out his own ribs, more and more desperate samurai chose the glorious death of the samurai. At this point, it was difficult to find the wrong person, and the samurai had to cut open their stomachs and stab themselves in the throat or heart with long knives. The long artillery bombardment finally ended, but unfortunately the defenders of the fort had long since fled, except for the corpses of the blades, and no one could organize the enemy to land again.
