Youpeng in Shan County blushed, this matter is indeed his own lack of consideration. Read the full text of the latest chapter.
Emperor Meiji said to Ito Hirobumi: "Ito-kun, do you think if you go to England in person, are you sure that the British Empire will continue to lend us money?" ”
Ito Hirobumi has studied in Germany and the United States for many years, and he has a wide network, and if Ito Hirobumi can't get it, others will go for nothing.
Hirobumi Ito sighed and said, "Your Majesty, I'll do my best." If I think too much, it's unlikely, if it's just a few million pounds. ”
Meiji nodded, millions of pounds, that is, forty million taels of silver, this is not a small amount, enough for the empire to support for a long time.
Emperor Meiji asked, "In that case, let's take a gamble, what are you going to do in the next war?" ”
Yamamoto replied: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the three eastern provinces have become the most important foundation of the Republic of China, if we forcibly attack, the Chinese tiger will definitely fight to the end, it is better for us to give up the three eastern provinces and attack Taiwan, as long as we take Taiwan and secure our overseas and local routes, this is our greatest victory, as for the three eastern provinces, to be honest, I don't think we have the strength to eat the three eastern provinces now, and now it seems that Shangwen's analysis is still very reasonable!" ”
Emperor Meiji's heart was shocked, and his eyes stared at Yamamoto Gonbei, this answer made his heart very uncomfortable. ( )
Ito Hirobumi sighed, and immediately saw that Shangwen had already entered, but he couldn't let His Majesty have any more opinions on Yamamoto.
Ito Hirobumi stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this time, that time. The former, the Republic of China for the civil war in South China contained, we invaded the Northeast, only then have a certain degree of certainty, but, now that the Chinese civil war has basically ended, and then want to invade the Northeast, it is indeed a bit risky, pour the strength of the whole country to fight, it is simple, but once defeated, we will really fall into the land of no return, and now we are only afraid that we really can't fight hard with the Chinese Tiger. ”
Emperor Meiji was silent, and at this time, Yamayama Youpeng stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Ito-kun and Yamamoto-kun said is reasonable, and it is indeed difficult for us to defeat the Chinese Tiger army now, even if the strength of our army is superior to theirs, but don't forget, the weapons of the Chinese Revolutionary Army are so advanced that they are even above Britain and Germany, and we have no way to compare with others at all. ”
Emperor Meiji is now already a zero-level god / 19181 / figured it out, there is absolutely nothing to find fault with in the advice of Limi Shangwen, and it is insightful, it is only because of the problem of face that Emperor Meiji is unwilling to admit that Limi Shangwen is correct.
But now, things have come to such a point, if you don't pay attention to it, it will be a situation from which you will never recover, and he can't do it recklessly.
Emperor Meiji nodded and said, "Well, what the secretaries said is that, according to your opinions, mobilize troops to aid Taiwan, and now occupy Taiwan and then make sense!" ”
At this time, the deacon outside the door hurriedly walked in and said, "Your Majesty, my lords, General Gentaro Kodama of Korea is in a hurry. ”
Emperor Meiji's heart jumped, Kodama Gentaro's telegram, no need to ask, it was a telegram sent by Tachimi Naomi with Kodama Gentaro, this Kodama is really the only one who is looking forward to Naobumi!
Emperor Meiji waved his hand, and the deacon sent the telegram directly to Emperor Meiji.
"To His Majesty the Emperor, now that the war in the three eastern provinces and Taiwan is deadlocked, and the civil war in the Republic of China has stopped, the empire has become a tiger riding a tiger. The minister thought that Ito-kun should return to England again, pass through Tsarist Russia, and ask Tsarist Russia to help again, and the two countries should work together to have a slight chance of victory, so that the British side can put aside its doubts and allocate military aid again, and ask Your Majesty to decide......"
Emperor Meiji nodded, this Lijian Shangwen's suggestion is really bloody, we have just discussed letting Ito-kun go to England in front of his dignitaries, asking for military assistance, this Lijian Shangwen, even thought of a strategy, first said to move Tsarist Russia to send troops, the two countries united, and then to England for help, with Tsarist Russia's shot, presumably the probability of success will be multiplied.
Emperor Meiji said: "Ito-kun, Naofumi and Gentaro Kodama suggested that you go to Tsarist Russia by boat first, persuade Tsarist Russia to send troops again, and then ask England for a loan, you see......"
Ito Hirofumi's eyes lit up, yes, now the economic crisis in Tsarist Russia has subsided, the economy is recovering, the domestic situation is no longer so tense, and now Zhang Yi is still occupying the Outer Khing'an Mountains and the Far East.
Ito Hirobumi nodded and said, "Well, Your Majesty, this suggestion is indeed far-reaching, and I think I can give it a try." ”
Emperor Meiji nodded, and then looked down: Moreover, now that the Sino-Japanese war situation has changed greatly, Zhang Jianzhi's troops are still at the southern end, and the minister thinks that he should do his best to increase troops to North Korea, and in one fell swoop all the four main divisions in the country will be transferred to Korea, and the strength of eleven divisions will be concentrated to break through the defense line of the Yalu River with the momentum of thunder, and fully invade the three eastern provinces.
Emperor Meiji was almost angry and cried by the telegram behind him, this is a quick view of Shangwen, a special lack of heart, how can he always disagree with the opinions of me and the military department, when Lao Tzu wants to invade China, he will not let it; When Lao Tzu wanted to fight the three eastern provinces, he let Taiwan be occupied; Now that Lao Tzu has finally figured it out, he wants to occupy Taiwan, and he wants me to attack the three eastern provinces, isn't this sick?
Emperor Meiji was so angry that he threw the telegram directly to Yama Prefecture Youtomo, and roared angrily: "This is the first time that Shangwen, is he sick, why does he go against me every time?" Outrageous! ”
Yama County Youpeng hurriedly picked up the telegram, and Ito Hirofumi on the side also hurried over, it was okay just now, His Majesty the Emperor was still kind and pleasant, and he saw Shangwen looking at each other differently, for a while, why did he change his hexagram again?
After reading the telegram, Yama Youpeng and others handed it to the people around them.
Youpeng in Shan County is also a little resentful, what is going on with this Li Jian Shangwen, and now he is going to attack the three eastern provinces! How to fight, there is Zhang Yi's lifeline, if it was fought some time ago, then it will be defeated, let's defend it, we will definitely be able to resist the counterattack of the Chinese Revolutionary Army, now that the civil war is over, the army has begun to gather north, and he actually wants the empire to attack the three eastern provinces with all its might!
Is it so easy to take down there, don't forget, they have already gathered three or four divisions of troops, and there is still the Yalu River separating it!
