Because the military committee moved very quickly, the operation of the troops on the island of Kyushu was successful. Most of the lords of Kyushu had joined the Kyushu coalition led by the Satsuma domain, and they did not expect the Far East to launch an attack on them. Moreover, it was a frenzied eradication of the grass and roots, and the daimyo lords of the entire Kyushu, except for the Shimazu family of the Satsuma domain, the rest of the daimyo were completely eradicated.

After nearly a month of sweeping and purging operations, the Far East has gradually improved public order in various parts of Kyushu Island with its iron-blooded policy. During this period, the daimyo lords and their families, as well as their retainers and samurai, were either killed on the battlefield or disposed of by the military council's secret group.

The few samurai and ashigaru who escaped by chance, although they brought some trouble to the Far Eastern Army in the following period, were also cleaned up in the subsequent murderous sweep of the Far East.

Of course, all the units of the Far Eastern Army that participated in the war were under the banner of the Satsuma Domain. Anyway, at present, only the Shimazu family of the Satsuma Domain is still in Kyushu. In the future, no one will believe them, even if the Satsuma Shimazu family explains it.

After the island of Kyushu was stabilized, the working group of the Ethnic Affairs Committee also rushed to Kyushu Island, where they replanned the land in various parts of Kyushu, and then reorganized the Japanese people at the bottom of the island according to detachments, brigades, and squadrons.

In addition, the land on Kyushu Island was divided equally among each household, and as before, each family had to pay 60% of the annual harvest, but there was no land rent, and only the annual labor during the agricultural slack period was increased to three months.

As for the land policy in the Far East, the people at the bottom of Kyushu are still rejoicing. After all, there is no need to pay land rent in the future, and there will be a lot of surplus grain left every year. As for who is their lord, they don't care at all, it's the most important thing to have a full stomach.

They were reorganized in the Far East. For the low-level civilians in all parts of Kyushu, they like this arrangement instead. The nature of the Japanese is like this, they are afraid of being abandoned by the collective, and only by living in a collective environment can they feel grounded.

The company will also follow the urine nature of the Japanese in remote areas such as the Outer Northeast, Nanyang, and Xinjiang in the future. A large number of state farms were established, and these Japanese were gradually migrated there to develop the agricultural resources of these areas.

In addition, the company will develop the mineral resources of Australia, Indochina, Siberia and other places on a large scale in the future, and Little Japan is definitely the best miner coolie, as long as they are not starved, one is more capable than the other.

Anyway, the little Japan of the Japanese islands must not let them get together anymore and break up this group of little Japan. They're not, but if they get together, something will happen sooner or later.

With the gradual stabilization of various parts of Kyushu, the Military Commission has gradually handed over the civil work here to the working group of the Ethnic Affairs Committee. The Military Council also began to actively prepare for the next phase of the Japanese campaign.

The Kyushu Coalition Army, which was currently organized by the Satsuma Domain, was supported by the Far East and formed the Kyushu Division, and redeployed tens of thousands of troops under Osaka Castle. Tens of thousands of elites of the Kyushu Division made a posture of attacking Osaka, making the Shogunate coalition forces in Osaka feel like they were facing a great enemy. They built a large number of civil fortifications on the Osaka defense line and placed more than 100,000 troops on this strong defense line.

Although it looks like there are quite a few people. But in addition to the tens of thousands of elites of the shogunate coalition army, the rest are soldiers and horses sent by daimyo from all over Japan's Honshu Island to increase their troops, as well as a large number of civilians from all over the country with bamboo guns.

During this time, the Kyushu Division made a sufficient posture, but it was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, they organized troops to conduct training every day. Occasionally, some troops were sent to make some tentative attacks on the Osaka Line. Of course, the shogunate coalition did not dare to attack, they saw the firepower of the Far East, and knew that a field battle with the Kyushu division was to send them to death, so they could only hide in the tight civil fortifications. Nervously awaiting an attack from the Far East.

They did not relax in the slightest, and were always vigilant against the attack of the Kyushu Division, and did not dare to take it lightly. After all, the last time he was beaten by a violent blow in the Far East, he was terrified, and he just pinned his hopes on the strong civil fortifications and tried to block the attack of the Kyushu Division.

The Tokugawa shogunate also sent people to the Kyushu division several times to meet with Shimazu Tadashi, hoping that the two sides would hold peace talks, and put forward the idea of ruling the world together with the Shimazu family in Satsuma. But when Shimazu Tadashi saw the current situation, how could he still give up his ambition to win the world, and directly put forward extremely harsh conditions to dispel the ambitions of the Tokugawa family.

The Military Council used the Kyushu Division to contain the main forces of the Tokugawa clan in Osaka, giving the Military Council ample time to deal with the various daimyo feudal lords on the islands of Kyushu and Shikoku.

After the successful completion of the operation on Kyushu Island, the spearhead of the Military Commission also pointed to the next target, Japan's Shikoku Island.

The island of Shikoku is located in the southwestern part of Honshu, south of Chugoku, northeast of Kyushu, and separated from Honshu by the Seto Inland Sea. It is bordered by the Seto Inland Sea to the north, the Pacific Ocean to the south, the Naruto Strait and Kii Suido to the east, and the region of Honshu to the east, and Kyushu to the west by the Toyo Strait and the Bungo Waterway. Together with the island, it covers an area of about 18,800 square kilometers

During the shogunate period, Shikoku Island consisted of Awa, Sanuki, Iyo, and Tosa, which were ruled by the Wasuka clan, the Ikoma clan, and the Yamauchi clan, as well as small feudal clans such as Matsuyama, Uwajima, Ozu, and Imabari.

During the attack on Kyushu Island, the Admiralty dispatched a large number of warships to completely blockade the coastal areas of Shikoku Island and Honshu Island. As soon as they found that the ships were captured, and dared to resist and escape, they would be sunk immediately, and even if the ships along the coast were dragged to the shore, most of them were burned by the landing of the Far Eastern Army, so that all contact between Shikoku Island and Honshu Island was lost.

In addition, the Kyushu Division also dispatched troops, with the cooperation and support of the Admiralty, to gradually occupy the islands of Etajima, Sohashi Island, Nomi Island, Osakishimojima, Osaki Uejima, Okunoshima, Omishima, Hakukatajima, Yukigashima, Itsujojima, and Ikuguchi Island in the waters between Shikoku and Kyushu.

In the face of the ferocious firepower of the Far Eastern Fleet, the Kyushu Division did not make much effort, and it took less than a month to easily take down the islands.

At this time, there were not many people on these islands, and in order to ensure the smooth implementation of the attack on Shikoku Island, the Satsuma Domain, at the behest of the Far East, slaughtered all the inhabitants of these islands, regardless of gender, age and age.

Although the Wasuka clan, the Ikoma clan, and the Yamauchi clan on the island of Shikoku, as well as the small feudal clans such as Matsuyama, Uwajima, Ozu, and Imabari did not know that the Far East had swept away Kyushu Island, they still smelled danger from it, and they all began to strengthen their armaments.
