Chapter 237: The Three-Bar Banner
Forget it, others are "people are not short of ambition", Liu Yun can also understand the hardships of the Ryukyu remnants, in 1875 the Ryukyu destroyed the country, these people became slaves of the country, originally everyone didn't care, in the past 61 years, can have enough of the suffering of the country, and now the three-bar flag is flying again.
No matter how cowardly the old and young are, they don't want to be slaves of the country, even if there is only one person, they will die in battle with the Japanese Kou, they really don't care who is in power, but they definitely want the Ryukyus themselves to be in power, well, Commander Liu is the concubine of Prince Shang Qing'er, so he is naturally a Ryukyuan person.
The formation of an army, in the eyes of their elders, is still secondary, the key is to establish a small court in exile first, well, after all, "if the name is not right, the word is not good", without a solid leadership core, the common people in the Pacific Ocean, how can they have the courage to fight with the Japanese devils.
Anyway, West Sichuan County is a semi-militarized base, even if these old and young people shout out their throats, no one pays attention to them, even if they want to demonstrate, they can only walk a few laps on the streets of West Sichuan Town, and if they really want to build a small court, they can only let them build it.
Well, according to the opinion of the counselor doctor Shang Zhiming, since it is a small court, it has to be decent, no matter what, it must first get a three princes and nine secretaries, and then reward a group of generals and administrators, etc., for the sake of the old and the young desperately recovering the country, at least some official titles, titles and fiefs will be sealed.
Your sister, it's just a trick to death, Liu Yun really can't stand it, and directly makes a decision on behalf of Qing'er, the three princes and nine kings will be exempted, and all other rewards will be postponed, now is an extraordinary period, we must consider the suffering Ryukyu people, and we must carry forward the fine style of "enduring hardships in front and enjoying later".
It can be said that Qing'er's eyes are full of small stars, Shang Zhiming and other elders are speechless, and then Commander Liu's courage is getting bigger and bigger, and he directly announced the personnel order, and continued to respect Shangchang as the righteous king, and respect Shang Qing'er as the regent, and served as the prime minister of the Ryukyu government-in-exile, and concurrently served as the commander-in-chief of the three armies.
As for a few elderly people who were old and frail, they served as ministers of the Ministry of Household Finance, Minister of Rites and Counsel, Minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Interior, Minister of Police Affairs of the Criminal Department, and Minister of Organization of the Ministry of Officials.
Because the Ryukyu Kingdom was invaded by devils for a long time, military struggle was the main task of the cabinet for the foreseeable period, so the remaining forty or fifty people, regardless of men, women, and children, were all incorporated into the Ryukyu Restoration Army.
The old and young people are also frightened, only forty or fifty people, and they have formed a Mao army, even a standard Japanese-style team, sixty or seventy people, at this time, it is time for Shang Qing'er to play a white face, and cough dryly, "Liu Yun, the king of western Sichuan, will form a compendium team according to the secret order of the lord of Huaxia."
There is no way, the Japanese devils practice the emperor system, and the Ryukyuan people have long been accustomed to referring to the leaders of various countries as the lord or emperor, and if they talk about a constitutional monarchy or a republican democracy, it is pure nonsense, and even the Japanese are not allowed to talk about it casually.
The Ryukyuan people were pleasantly surprised, it seems that the Sino-Japanese war is imminent, and the dream of the restoration of the Ryukyus is finally hopeful, and it should be celebrated with the crown, but then secretly worried, in case the Chinese people go crazy and have to go to the battlefield, they will have a little fire to restore the country, and it will be over after the egg is finished.
Shang Qing'er struck out in time and completely dispelled their last doubts, "The Daimyo of Western Sichuan has already planned, this compendium wing will have two standard squadrons, a standard artillery squadron, and a wing headquarters, with a number of more than 800 people, temporarily loyal to Lord Liu Yun."
After thinking about it for a while, they slowly understood that these exiles, who want money or money, have no money, and these more than 800 troops, not to mention weapons and equipment and training, they have no way to eat, drink and Lazar, and temporarily allegiance to Lord Liu Yun, but it is reasonable to say that they can replenish in time in the future.
Liu Yun coughed dryly, hurriedly corrected it in time, and said affectionately, "You died in the country, Huaxia is responsible, now the Japanese devils are becoming more and more rampant, Huaxia has to fight with it, now you have joined, after the victory, Huaxia should do its best to help the Ryukyus recover."
"Of course, Prime Minister Kiyo'er's statement is also slightly inappropriate, although the population of Ryukyu is large, but there are not many people who are determined to restore the country, so you are all the hope of the restoration of the Ryukyus, how can you sacrifice lightly, and your position in the future battle is not the front line of war, but the rear."
This is too contemptuous of people, but the old and young are declining, like sheep and bow their heads in shame, but there are seven or eight young warriors, but they angrily ripped open their necks, revealing their strong chests, and howled like wolves, "Although we are lowly, we have the heart to die for the country."
What kind of system is this, do you want to rebel? Shang Qing'er's face changed, and she was about to stop these bear children, but Liu Yun admired them very much, so she praised them vigorously, "You are all good, Ryukyu has been a righteous warrior since ancient times, and now it seems that it is true, but it is far from enough to have a physique."
Commander Liu's voice changed, and he said with some regret, "In 1933, the devils invaded the Great Wall of China, because the princes were lucky, so they rushed to the battle, resulting in a fifteen-to-one battle between the Chinese and Japanese devils, which is really a great shame, after years of research, I discovered a secret."
Liu Yun did not hesitate to make a fool of himself, it was really a turn of God, the change in everyone's faces was a bit strange, fortunately, Qing'er was used to someone's way of expression, and couldn't help but smile slightly, and others didn't dare to make a mistake, waiting for Commander Liu to uncover the mystery, "It's because the Chinese army is not familiar with the Japanese devils."
Prince Liu looked at the warriors of the Shaozhuang faction and asked in a deep voice, "Most of you have experience in the army, according to you, do you kill more devils on the battlefield yourself, or let thousands of Chinese troops kill more Japanese devils after they are familiar with the enemy's combat methods." Ladies and gentlemen of the Ryukyus, please leave it to you."
Because Commander Liu spoke very slowly, the thinking of the Ryukyuan people could still keep up, especially at the end, when Liu Yun bowed and asked them, they all looked solemn, and they all understood their responsibilities, so they bowed happily and sincerely in return, to show that they would not live up to their trust.
The so-called unity of the people, thanks to the concerted efforts of everyone, the first wing of the Ryukyus, soon had a prototype, and Prince Liu also promptly declared that this Japanese reproduction army would be Shang Qing'er's personal guard, and would participate in military exercises when necessary, so as to help the Chinese army understand the combat characteristics of the Japanese army.
Shang Qing'er is the regent of the Ryukyus, and her personal guard is actually the Ryukyu royal guard, which causes the old and young to be angry.
Therefore, the old and the young are more respectful, and they basically ask Liu Yun about everything, even including the national flag and military flag of the Ryukyus, which makes Commander Liu depressed, but many people are not to blame, if he loses his temper because of this, he really can't say it, or Qing'er is intimate, and they all make decisions one by one.
The first Ryukyu United, also known as the Ryukyu Royal United, the captain of the Ryukyu Royal United, the national flag and the military flag are one, using the three-color three-bar flag, which looks like a whirlpool, but it is a three-petal curved small water droplet, divided into blue, red and yellow colors, printed on the white flag, conspicuous and dazzling.
Shang Qing'er was afraid that Liu Yun would be sulky, and specially explained the origin of the Samba Flag, which was the first royal symbol of the Ryukyus, that is, the all-black Samba Flag, which was later derived from the three-color Samba Flag, blue refers to the sky and the sea, red represents the sun and China, and yellow represents the land and the people.
Blue and yellow are easy to understand, red is a bit far-reaching, remember the sign of the Japanese devil, is a round of red sun, for Liu Yun's question, Shang Qinger explained with a smile, Shang Shi was founded in the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty is the rebirth of fire, naturally advocating red.
It turns out that Ryukyu is a county-level island country of more than 2,000 square kilometers, although the sea, sky, land and people are listed in the first place, but the care of a big country such as China is also very important, the capital of Ryukyu Naha Port is the throat of the first island chain in the Pacific Ocean, and its strategic position is particularly important, whether it is from China to Japan or the Pacific Ocean, it is the only way.
Throughout modern times, China is declining, a small kingdom of the Ryukyus, in order to survive, also had to rely on Japan, but the Japanese devils are mean and vicious, to all the neighbors around it, have a deep malice, after the death of the Korean and Ryukyuan people naturally miserable.
Therefore, it is logical that the people of the Ryukyus, who have been in exile for 61 years, are still determined to restore the country, but at present, China and Japan have not yet started a full-scale war, and the Nanjing government represented by Lao Chiang will definitely not dare to show this group of government-in-exile, let alone help them build an army, at most provide political asylum, and so on.
However, Liu Yun was a pragmatist, believing that the Ryukyu Tricolor Wing could play the role of the Blue Army in military exercises, and that the officers at all levels had also served as active soldiers of the Japanese army, which could fully help the Chinese army improve its combat effectiveness and familiarize itself with the Japanese army's combat methods.
Commander Liu himself does not understand war, but he knows one thing, "know oneself and know the other, and will not be defeated in a hundred battles", and the people who know the Japanese devils best are still their own people, and they want to dig up their upper-class Chinese, which is basically whimsical, or the Tokugawa family and the like, who have no relationship with military power, and it is futile to dig up, or they are in power, they are vested interests, and they are willing to cooperate with Huaxia.
Therefore, there are only two forces that can really dig up the candidates, one is the Korean aristocracy, and the other is the Ryukyu aristocracy, they are all people who are both used and guarded against by the Japanese devils, because if you want to promote the great integration of nationalities, you have to set an example, but they are in the narrowness of the island country, and they are unwilling to really trust.
Over time, these Koreans and Ryukyuan people naturally thought of their motherland, because if they did not return to the country, they would only become inferior or non-nationals forever, and as long as the interests or conditions were sufficient, they would split with the Japanese devils at any time, but for Liu Yun, there was only Ryukyu to choose from.
North Korea is located at the junction of China, Japan and the Soviet Union, and everyone has been making unremitting efforts to win them over, and the promises they have made are more lovely than the other. In particular, the Soviet Union was most anxious, it was an important springboard when they were preparing to expand, and when it came to defense, it was a natural buffer.
The Ryukyu Kingdom is different, it is located on an island, except for the attention of Britain and the United States, basically no one pays attention to it, the Soviet Navy is a famous and often defeated navy, as for China, not to mention, there is no navy at all, the only little ship, it has long been renamed the Jiang Defense Army, think about it is tears.
