In Hu Zhen's mind, the Wa Kingdom was an enemy that had to be defeated and could never get up.

From the time he crossed over, he prepared a plan to deal with the Wa Kingdom.

It's just that this Wa State is far from being a strong Wa State in later generations, and its naval and army forces can't even get out of the three islands of the Wa Kingdom, and there is almost no intersection with the Huaxia Guild in Nanyang, let alone any threat, so the Huaxia Army under Hu Zhen has not yet fought with the Wa State.

However, the Wa Kingdom set its sights on the powerful Huaxia Guild and sent a lot of Wa personnel to Nanyang in the name of making a living, doing business, and doing business as merchants, wage earners, and maids.

However, Hu Zhen was very vigilant about this, and all Japanese people were expelled from the country.

Such an action made Hu Zhen's subordinates feel that he was a little nervous.

However, this avoided the Japanese State's reconnaissance of the strength of the Nanyang Huaxia Guild.

They are all East Asian countries of the same language and species, and they should unite to fight against the white people in Europe and the United States and revitalize the Greater Asia of the yellow race.

But Hu Zhen just didn't get in the oil and salt, so he didn't pay attention to the personnel sent by the Japanese State at all.

This Hu Zhenzhi had obvious hostility towards everything in the Wa Kingdom, which made the elites of the Meiji Restoration of the Wa Kingdom feel bad.

After the Huaxia Guild seized Alaska, the Japanese State fell into a strategic encirclement, and the Japanese used their strength to strengthen the construction of military strength. The military power of the Wa Kingdom has increased at least twice as much as that of the Wa State in another time and space.

If we continue on this track, there will inevitably be a sea and land war that will determine the overall pattern of East Asia's future destiny.

The stars shifted, time flew by, and the time came to 1894, the 20th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, and the 27th year of the Meiji reign of the Wa Kingdom. February 6 is the Spring Festival, a traditional festival that is more important to all countries in East Asia.

Emperor Meiji of the Wakuni Kingdom held a New Year's banquet in the Imperial Palace, and several important ministers of the Restoration, including Hirobumi Ito and Aritomo Yamaguchi.

However, no matter how hard everyone tried, the atmosphere of the New Year's banquet in the palace could not be livened up this time.

For it is as if a great stone has been pressed against everyone's heart. Even if there is a rare New Year's feast in the palace, there is no intention to enjoy it at all.

This big stone in my heart is the increasingly powerful Huaxia Guild.

"I'm going to hold a pre-imperial meeting with Zhongqing, and I'll remove the banquet!" Emperor Meiji Muhito, like all the important ministers, was also worried and had no intention of eating a beautiful New Year's meal.

"Yes!" Immediately, the queen hurriedly ordered the palace servants to remove the banquet and replace it with a simple conference table.

After changing the conference table, Muren impatiently asked the ministers: "Ministers, how does the Great Wa Empire deal with such a situation?" ”

Foreign Minister Mutsu Munemitsu was the first to report his depression in recent years:

"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of our country has already submitted it to the Huaxia Association. Our country has the intention of forming an alliance with the Huaxia Guild to jointly deal with white Europeans, but who knows, Hu Zhen, the chief of the Huaxia Guild, ignored this, and expelled all our citizens from all the territory of the Nanyang Huaxia Guild, and ordered that no one of our nationals should be accepted, even the popular Chinese beauty geisha was not allowed to enter its territory. From this point of view, Hu Zhen, the chief of the Huaxia Association, is deeply hostile to our country. I really don't know what's going on! ”

Actually, what the Wa Kingdom intends to ally with the Huaxia Guild is fake. The real intention of the Wa Kingdom was to probe the secret of the rapid rise of the Huaxia Guild, but Hu Zhen was unwilling to do so.

The Navy's commander Shikiki Kayama stood up and said:

"Your Majesty, four years ago, the naval fleet of the Huaxia Guild openly had seven main battleships, more than 20 main cruisers, and the Qing Kingdom also had two battleships, Zhenyuan and Dingyuan, due to the ineffective work of our intelligence department. I don't know much about its strength in four years, it is estimated that the Huaxia Guild now has at least ten or more battleships, and we must take drastic measures, otherwise this Huaxia Guild will travel from Nanyang to Hawaii, to Alaska, and to the future Huaxia Continent.

We will be surrounded by the Chinese people on all sides. It's time for us to act! ”

Emperor Muhito of the Meiji Emperor of the Wa Kingdom and the important ministers present are well aware of the strength of the Wa Kingdom and the Nanyang Huaxia Guild, but now when they hear Kayama Shiki, their hearts are still cold:

Others had seven battleships four years ago, and although the whole country built a navy with a small amount of food and clothing, the three-view ships "Matsushima", "Itsukushima", and "Hashidate" with a displacement of 4,278 tons and only one 320 mm main gun were expanded into six battleships, and there were three more "Ishigaki", "Oshino", and "Izu" of the same class, and gritted their teeth and paid a huge amount of money to order six battleships from England and Italy, but they were still under construction in the dock, and there is not a single battleship in service so far. How this is someone else's opponent!

Before everyone could react, the Privy Council Speaker Yama Youpeng then stood up and said with great sorrow:

"Your Majesty, although our intelligence work on the Huaxia Guild is not effective, our intelligence in the Qing State shows that the Huaxia Guild is stepping up its efforts to send people to infiltrate the railways, industrial and mining enterprises of the Qing State, and the Qing State has built more than 15,000 kilometers of railways in the past four years, and implemented the policy of "colonization and prosperity" and "civilization and enlightenment" similar to that of our Great Wa Kingdom, and its Jiangnan Shipyard, Mawei Shipyard, Dalian Shipyard, Wuchang Iron and Steel Plant, Ma'anshan Iron and Steel Plant, Guangzhou Wenchong Shipyard, Anshan Iron and Steel Plant, The scale of industrial enterprises far exceeds that of our Wa Kingdom, and if it continues like this, not to mention that the Huaxia Guild defeated the Qing State and unified the whole of China, even the Qing Dynasty, which is about to die, can suppress the ...... of our Great Wa Kingdom, Your Majesty, we must take decisive action! ”

Emperor Meiji only listened to the statements of Shikinori Kayama, the naval faction of the Satsuma Domain, and Aritomo Aritomo, the army faction of the Nagasu Domain, but Emperor Meiji just listened and did not speak, and turned his eyes to Hirobumi Ito, Prime Minister and Minister of the Imperial Household.

Ito Hirobumi stood up and saluted Emperor Meiji respectfully:

"Your Majesty, in order to equip our navy and army, the annual financial expenditure has reached more than sixty percent of our country's fiscal revenue, and our country has run out of breath......

When Ito Hirobumi said this, Emperor Meiji and Finance Minister Shigenobu Osumi both nodded, in order to build a modern navy and army modeled after the advanced countries of Western Europe, the entire Wa country could be said to have fought hard, and Meiji himself even cut the budget funds for imperial meals by half.

And the salaries of the entire Japanese government officials have been reduced by one-third, and if this continues, there will definitely be problems in the Japanese government.

“…… Therefore, this year, we must take resolute military action and take Goryeo from the Qing state. It is also necessary to occupy Beijing, the imperial capital of the Qing State, and force the Qing State to pay reparations and cede the Liaodong Peninsula and Taiwan, so that our country can safely survive the serious economic crisis that may arise! ”

In the past Imperial Meetings, Emperor Meiji rarely spoke, and even in some meetings, he never said a word from beginning to end, but this time I heard Ito Hirobumi say this, and I couldn't help but speak: "Now. We have to take action against the Qing State, in case the Nanyang Huaxia Guild intervenes, this is a real rival, in case it is not dealt with well, the Yamato nation will fall into a situation from which there will be no return, how do we deal with the problems that arise here? ”

Ito Hirobumi said solemnly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, as long as we plan properly and instigate the worries of the European and American powers. The European and American powers will not let this China rise smoothly, and the minister has already discussed a top-secret plan with you in the cabinet. When we made a move against the Qing Kingdom in Goryeo, the Huaxia Guild had no time to intervene! ”

"Top secret plan?" Since Meiji ascended the throne at the age of fifteen, many times he has been out of control over the actions of his courtiers, and many things are up to the cabinet, so it is not surprising that he did not know about this plan.

"Yes. We called this plan the Dragon Slayer Project! It was only the ministers who reached an agreement verbally, and the manuscript had not yet been submitted to His Majesty. ”

"Dragon-slaying plan?" Emperor Meiji didn't know whether he was happy or sad on his face.

"The general content of the plan is to do it through the actions that we have planned...... The attention of the Huaxia Guild had to be diverted elsewhere, and then our country concentrated all its efforts on a sudden attack in Goryeo and defeated the Qing army stationed in Goryeo. Then advance to Liaodong, land on the Shandong Peninsula and its Hebei Plain at the same time, fight a decisive battle with the main force of the Qing army, occupy Beijing, force the Qing to negotiate peace with China, and force it to cede land to China and pay compensation......"

"This plan is very good, but if we win or become one of the world's great powers, if we lose, we will be doomed......," Emperor Meiji was still worried when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, we have no choice, we can only gamble on the operation of the country, otherwise we can only be surrounded by a group of barren islands surrounded by Huaxia, and we will always be other people's slaves or followers!"

Emperor Meiji had no choice but to nod: "I have said that 'opening up thousands of miles of waves and spreading the power of the country in all directions' is the basic national policy of our country, and from today onwards, according to the regulations of the wartime base camp, you have secretly set up a base camp in the staff headquarters, and the headquarters will command and transfer the attention of the Huaxia Guild and carry out the operation against the Qing Kingdom, and the secretaries will implement this plan!" ”

On that day, 1894, the 20th year of Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty, and the 27th year of the Meiji reign of the Wa Kingdom, on February 6, the first day of the Lunar New Year, the headquarters of the Wa State Base Camp was established, and the composition was as follows:

Prime Minister Hirobumi Ito

The chief of staff headquarters is General Sugawa Miyashihito

The Privy Council Speaker, Yamaguchi Aritomo, is a general

Vice Admiral Shikinori Kayama, head of the Naval Command Department

Vice Admiral Saigo Shomichi, Minister of the Navy

Minister of War Lieutenant General Oyama Iwa

Major General Kawakami Soro, Deputy Chief of Staff Headquarters

With the establishment of the headquarters of the Japanese state, in order to implement the national policy of foreign aggression of the Japanese state, the government, army, and civil resources and forces of the entire Japanese state have been mobilized:

Machines in munitions factories produce weapons, bullets, shells around the clock; The navy and army did not hesitate to spend ammunition to conduct training day and night; Thousands of spies were sent to the territory of the Qing Kingdom and the Huaxia Guild.

When the Wa Kingdom was busy with the war, the Qing State was stimulated by the Huaxia Guild, and was still carrying out the Westernization Movement in full swing, engaging in industrial construction.

Although the Huaxia Guild was aware of this, it was not paying attention to the Wa Kingdom.

As Hu Zhen himself, he must have been very wary of the Wa State, but in view of the fact that the power of the Wa State was far from being the opponent of the Huaxia Guild, he did not focus on the Wa State at the beginning of the first year of 1894.

At the beginning of the new year, Hu Zhen can be described as having both joys and sorrows.

The personal joy is that the eldest lady Han Yuqing is pregnant, and watching her belly get bigger and bigger, Hu Zhen's heart is happy.

But the troublesome trouble also came, the third lady, Princess Kaolani, saw that Hu Zhen had made Han Yuqing's belly bigger, but her stomach didn't move at all, so she jealously pestered Hu Zhen every night to make a villain for her, which made Hu Zhen really annoying.

Fortunately, the second lady Zhong Ling did not make such a request, so every night, Hu Zhen went into Zhong Ling's room to hide.

The Huaxia Guild has not had any wars with the outside world in recent years, and Hu Zhen mobilized a huge amount of funds from the powerful sheep shearing in Europe and the United States, and various major construction events were one after another:

In the 3.6 million square kilometers of territory controlled by the Chinese Guild in Nanyang and Alaska, there are more than 40 million Chinese in Nanyang, 3 million Chinese in Alaska, 300,000 Chinese immigrants from Hawaii, more than 500,000 Chinese immigrants in the Panama Canal Zone, and more than 400,000 Chinese immigrants from Puerto Rico and Guantanamo.

Under the guidance of the slogan of "if you want to get rich, you must first build roads", more than 50,000 kilometers of railways and 600,000 kilometers of cement-hardened roads have been built in these places, especially in the densely populated Nanyang area, where railways and highways are criss-crossed, and more railway and highway construction is still in full swing.

The most gratifying thing is that after four years of construction, the Panama Canal will be completed and opened to ship at the end of February with the support of a huge variety of construction machinery in the South Seas.

The construction of the Panama Canal has also created a super advertisement for the construction vehicles in the Nanyang area of the Chinese Association, and buyers from various countries have come one after another, so that automobile factories and engineering vehicle production branches have to implement quota sales, and production orders have been scheduled for a year later.

Incidentally, the cars produced by Nanyang Automobile Factory also account for more than 80% of the world's automobile market share.

What makes Hu Zhen most pleased is that the number of college students trained in the school has exceeded six figures, and students studying in European countries have come back one after another to become the main backbone of various industrialization construction, and the bottleneck of talents has been greatly alleviated.

However, there are also sorrows in the midst of joy:

The major European powers and the rice countries of North America, seeing that the Huaxia Guild was getting stronger and stronger, began to try to hinder the rise of the Huaxia Guild, and England only agreed to sell some cruisers with weak armor ability to build battleships for the Wa Kingdom, and was unwilling to sell battleships to the Huaxia Guild, and secretly connected the major powers to form an alliance to block the rise of Huaxia.

In less than four years, a huge naval fleet with 6 battleships was established, and the airship troops of the Huaxia Army were also established with thousands of airships.
