Feng Quan waited for news in the mansion, and without waiting for him to come to the Huaxia Kingdom's opinion, he listened to the servant: "Master, the eldest prince has ordered General Kong Youxing to return to the division." ”

Feng Quan stood up, this is a big deal, if Kong Youxing obeys the order of the eldest prince to return to the main island, then what about the war in Japan?

The Japanese military advantage is still there, the original strength is not superior, if the hasty return to the division, the Japanese soldiers and horses take advantage of the situation to attack, then the Lu army of only 60,000 troops, even if it has the disciplined military quality trained by the Taixi people, will also panic, lose a large area of the territory that has been occupied, if the Japanese samurai assault on the halfway, the people who have just been conscripted are likely to be dispersed, which is a great blow to the morale of the army on the front line, if they know the news of Hong Chengchou's death, they have no confidence in their hearts, It will be shaken.

It's a bit of a trick.

Feng Quan immediately wrote to Kong Youxing, ordering him not to obey any orders and stick to the front line, he transferred 10,000 troops on the main island to him to suppress the scene, as for the safety of the mainland, Feng Quan immediately asked his servants to inform Zhao Hui, the garrison of the Huaxia Kingdom, and asked him to send troops to stabilize the situation, at least not to let the Lu State be in chaos.

As his current identity, no one can remove him, he is now the Dinghai Shenzhu of the Lu State, the object of the various princes, because he is still listened to by others, and he has always been the one who operates specifically, and Hong Chengchou is just his emperor in the palace, he basically doesn't care about many things, and enjoys his last few years of old age.

Feng Quan didn't want to do this, but he was the second, so he had to work.

The reason why this is the case allows him to control everything under him, including officials and generals, and the deployment of various materials.

So now he still has people listening.

Although the current struggle for power among the princes has drawn some officials into their camp, and some generals have become subordinates of each camp, he can still command most of the generals.

Including which generalissimo of soldiers and horses, a marshal who can only command 70,000 troops in the country.

When the Lu Kingdom came to the islands of the Ryukyu Kingdom, the talents withered, whether it was a civilian official or a military general, or every existence that could fight, either died or fled, or was captured by the Huaxia army, and now there are actually four people who really hold the power of the whole country.

Hong Chengchou, the king, rules everything.

Feng Quan, who deals with all affairs, is the head of civil officials.

Kong Youxing, the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, commanded all the 70,000 regular soldiers and horses in the country.

Chen Hui, the Governor of the Naval Division, commanded 300 1,000-ton warships, 600 600-800-ton warships, as well as 1,000 merchant ships of less than 300 tons and 60-ton patrol boats offshore.

However, in terms of military resources and troops, it really can't be compared with a fleet of the Huaxia Kingdom.

Their fleet of thousand-ton warships is built by themselves, but they do not have the kind of shipbuilding technology of the Huaxia Kingdom, many thousand-ton warships are actually modified by the Daifuku ship, and the maximum speed of this kind of slow is only six knots, and the warships that generally sail at a speed of three to four knots really can't fight with the other side.

The most artillery of their 1,000-ton battleship is only one 76 guns, and they will temporarily find space to add a few guns to 81 guns.

The 800-ton battleship is already somewhat similar to the warship of the Huaxia Army, with more than 60 guns on board, and the firepower is about 20 pieces inferior to the 800-ton battleship of the Huaxia Army, and the speed is only 5 to 6 knots.

These artillery pieces are all imitated by themselves, made indiscriminately, and are not like the Huaxia Army, even if they have not upgraded their technology for several years, but now they are still crushing the existence of the artillery of the surrounding kingdoms, and the artillery progress of the Taixi people can be compared with the Huaxia Army, and the others are not comparable to the artillery of the Huaxia Army in terms of quality, firing speed, operation specifications, and generation difference.

Therefore, now a quarter of the fleet of the Huaxia military can safely force them not to resist.

After receiving the order of the eldest prince to return Kong Youxing, Feng Quan's carrier pigeon flew out of the mansion and went straight to the battlefield.

The Chinese Kingdom has now used carrier pigeons to communicate with various places, and carrier pigeons have become the telegram of the Chinese army, and urgent or short things can be conveyed through carrier pigeons.

Each county town had a special department similar to the telegraph office of later generations for sending and receiving carrier pigeons.

Civilian, military, both use carrier pigeons to deliver messages.

Ordinary messages, in the kingdom of Huaxia Kingdom, which has a special post road, can only be delivered by letter, special letters use a speed of 100 kilometers to deliver urgent letters, ordinary letters are transported by horse-drawn carriages, about 50 kilometers per hour, if it is to convey some unimportant family letters, 20 kilometers of horse-drawn carriages swaying through thousands of kilometers of places, a month to deliver.

The slowest in the whole country is delivered in a month, and the letter to Southeast Asia can only be sent by 50 kilometers of express train, and it will take a month to send it from Yunnan Prefecture and Yunnan Guizhou to Lu State, almost half a month, yes, since Lu State opened a port, it has more contact with the Huaxia Kingdom, and the Huaxia Kingdom has opened several ports to send letters to them.

If you send Lu from Jinling Mansion, at a speed of 50 kilometers, from the port to Lu State, and then by boat, it will only take four days to deliver.

In the words of carrier pigeons, it was sent from Lu to the special pigeon raising unit in Kong Youxing's camp on the battlefield in the evening, and then special personnel came to pick it up, and finally sent it to Kong Youxing.

At this time, Kong Youxing was also having a headache for this.

There are three field brigades of 10,000 people in the Lu army, and the other field brigades are all second-class field brigades, with a strength of about 6,500 people.

In addition to the three field brigades of 10,000 people, the other five field brigades and the same artillery brigade all had abnormalities, and Kong Youxing learned that from the eldest prince to the third prince, to one of the eldest sons of the second prince, the forces of the four sides interfered with him with the soldiers and horses he was fighting, and the six troops were in a state of sabotage to varying degrees.

Some have even dragged their men and horses to the port, preparing to take the naval troop transport ship back to the main island of Lu and join the whirlpool of struggle for power and profit.

This will not be allowed, he has already sent people to take over the command of these field brigades, and the people who go are all his henchmen, and there is only news of the three units closest to him, and there is no news from the other four troops, he is waiting for news.

He had basically mastered three first-class field brigades of 10,000 people, an artillery brigade, and two other troops with news, one was the unit that ran to the port, and the other was approaching Kagoshima hundreds of kilometers away from him, and they were transporting 100,000 newly recruited young Kagoshima and Japanese wandering samurai on their way to the battlefield.

This unit has sworn to obey his command, but there is no news from the two troops in the middle, and he feels that something may be wrong.

The army that went to the port already knew that it was the army controlled by the henchmen of the eldest prince, and his men were too late to go, and they could only run back to report the news.

Two troops, one is the army in the hands of the second prince, and the other is the army in the hands of the son of the second prince, he thinks the problem is here, they all say that the second son is shrewd, it seems that the shrewdness is too much, now at this moment, what are you making trouble, Japan has not yet conquered, and immediately withdraw the troops, so how can the domestic army, which has no advantage, fight the war below?

The loss of 12,000 troops.

And the detachment of sailors who promised to transport troops, as well as the troops of the Great Prince, which was again a loss of nine thousand troops.

He estimated that Chen Hui did not fully control all the troops of the Water Division, and now he was having the same headache as him, that is, he didn't know how many troops would be fully mastered in the end.

Kong Youxing listened to Feng Quan, he knew that the country of Lu could not be chaotic now, otherwise, hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops rushed down, and there was no place for them to die, and those princes would not be reliable.
