It can be said that the empire's economy is now bankrupt, and the Western countries are not pregnant with the overdue fact that after the war against the Qing and Japan, the empire will receive a large amount of war reparations.

Just forcing debts can plunge the empire into a bottomless abyss!

Up to now, although the imperial water and land armies were extremely sharp and beat the Beiyang Army of the Qing Dynasty not lightly, but for the Qing Dynasty, it only captured one-half of Liaoning Province, and defeated Tangshan in Zhili and Weihaiwei in Ludong.

For the behemoth of the Qing Dynasty, these are actually only scratching the skin, and they are far from reaching the point of hurting the muscles and bones.

And this 'fur' is still because the internal forces of the Qing Dynasty are pouring against each other, Guangxu and his imperial party are dragging Li Hongzhang's Beiyang back all the way, and the empire is just lucky to profit!

What if the Qing Dynasty stopped dumping in the next step, and the emperor fled to Xi'an, or even Chengdu and Wuhan, and then raised the strength of the whole country to fight to the death against the empire?

That would be a disaster!

Just thinking about it, Emperor Meiji was so frightened that he almost suffocated.

Chinese!

This giant king who stands on the East Asian continent and has reigned for thousands of years.

For thousands of years, the countries of East Asia have survived in its shadow.

annexation of Korea and return to the mainland;

The empire, a dream that has been diligently pursued for thousands of years, has painstakingly seized the opportunity and caught up in this great change that has not been tasted in a thousand years.

After bloody tempering and growth, starvation and exhaustion piled up the corpses of the people in the country, finally in 1893, the military power gradually ran to the front of the Qing Dynasty.

Naniwa, completed on March 26, 1886.

Takachiho, completed on March 26, 1886.

Chiyoda, completed on January 1, 1891.

Itsukushima, completed on September 3, 1891.

The Matsushima was completed on April 5, 1892.

The Yoshino was completed on September 30, 1893.

The Akitsu Island was completed on March 31, 1894.

The bridge was completed on June 26, 1894.

The current Oriental Empire is like a small man who is extremely overdrawn in his life, racing against the slow 'old empire' of the Qing Dynasty.

Meiji Restoration to the Westernization Movement!

At this time, he finally vomited blood and temporarily surpassed the Qing Dynasty in some places, and before the death of the return to the light, the empire must take advantage of the internal contradictions of the Qing Dynasty to subdue the imperial family of the Qing Dynasty.

Let it be like in the Sino-French War eleven years ago, when it did not dare to fight against France for a long time to strengthen the Hunan and Huai forces, this time it still does not dare to die with the empire.

Relying on the flesh and blood of the fat pig of the Qing Dynasty, the empire was not only reborn with full blood, but also soared into the world's 'first-class nation'.

Then it took decades to slowly kill pigs and let blood, until finally completely annexed China and dominated East Asia!

Emperor Meiji's heart is full of blood and cold, and in the current complicated situation, if he is not careful, he will either soar into the sky or fall into hell forever.

At this time, he regretted that he vomited blood, he really should listen to Ito's words, and recall the stubborn mule of Yama Prefecture Youpeng back to the country as soon as possible, so that the empire can get cheap enough, and he can accept it immediately.

As a result, it is now a mess, and the chariot of the empire seems to be dragging into the abyss of war little by little, involuntarily, helplessly, and helplessly.

"Telegraph to Zhangren, you must grasp the process of the war, and you must not let the empire slide into the quagmire of endless battles!"

After saying this, Emperor Meiji stood up with the exhaustion in his heart and shouted loudly: "Seoul, Pyongyang, Dadonggou, Dalian, Mukden, Shanhaiguan, Weihaiwei, the empire has perfectly defeated the fortresses and armies of the Qing State all the way, and now there is only one last step left: surround Yanjing and let the emperor of the Qing Dynasty sign the alliance under the city!" All you work hard, long live the invincibility of our empire! ”

"Long live the Empire! The Empire is invincible! ”

"Long live the Emperor!"

Suddenly, there was a fiery roar in the hall.

Zhili, Yanjing suburb of Tongzhou.

At this time, Yanjing of the Great Qing Dynasty also fell into an unusually excited chaos.

On the morning of the 15th, the Tongzhou Telegraph Bureau did not receive the latest telegram from Jizhou, and there was no news of the telegram in the past, so the Tongzhou side had a very bad guess.

Even if the war did not start, the Gan army in Jizhou was safe and sound, at least it showed that the Japanese soldiers cut off the telegraph line, but the Gan army was helpless!

The military aircraft bosses, who felt that the situation was very bad, hurriedly gave Cheng Wenbing an order to change a better house for the Japanese army's Kuroki Weizhen and the three of them.

And carefully advised, the house should be burned with hot kang, light incense, and prepare a sumptuous meal for the Oriental Taijun to satisfy his hunger, it can't seem that we don't know the etiquette, right?

The hungry Kuroki Weizhen, Mitsutomi Kamio, and Shigeta Fujii were invited into a warm luxury mansion by the Qing army who had been in front of them.

Then a large table of steaming dishes was soon served, a pot of warm wine was served, and a cup of fragrant tea was brewed for each person.

The three people who were confused looked at each other, and couldn't figure out what these Qing troops were doing?

"These officials and generals of the Qing army have always been as evil as jackals for internal evil, stupid as pigs, idiots and neurotics! Leave them alone, let's eat. ”

Kuroki took a small sip of the teacup for Zhen, the fragrance was full of relish, and it was really a good tea that the East did not have!

"Oh-"

At this time, there was a sudden roar outside, which shocked the three of them with a look of surprise.

"Bang, bang, bang—"

Then, outside, there was a hail of gunfire and shouting.

Kamio Mitsuchen, the only great spy among the three who knew Chinese, put his ear to the closed wooden door and listened for a long time, but he couldn't hear why.

However, the three of Kuroki Weizhen all have black faces, and now the entire 1st Army of the General of Zhili County, at this time, the reason for the Qing army's wild shouts basically does not need to be guessed, you can know what it is aimed at?

Just, how could it be!

"Bang dang!"

The door of the house was heavily pushed open by a group of Qing soldiers from the outside, and seeing that the table full of wine and food did not move, these Qing soldiers laughed and scolded and shouted: "This stupid wall, deserve to starve to death; Walk! ”

"Big brothers, where are we going now, it was so lively outside just now, what kind of celebration is there?"

As Kamio Mitsuchen spoke, he understood the 'truth' of the Qing Dynasty very well and handed over a stack of eagles.

The six or seven Qing soldiers who came in, when they saw the white Mexican Yingyang, their eyes lit up, and they all smiled even more happily.

"The boss told you to go back to that broken hut to live; I am not afraid that you turtles in the urn know that Luanzhou just sent a telegram that Liu Duxian of Shanhaiguan led the army to destroy the 3rd Brigade of your Japanese army, the 19th Wing, Major General, Dazuo, Zhongzuo, Shaozuo, all killed a single one without running, and 10,000 Japanese dogs were all killed! ——”

Before the head of the Hubei army could finish speaking, Kamio Mitsutomi's face had already turned pale.

Forbidden city.

Including the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, the hall was full of excitement.

Although tens of thousands of the mountains and seas have been killed and wounded, but now more than 10,000 elite soldiers have suddenly emerged and survived, and tens of thousands of Japanese troops have been wiped out, how can people not be overjoyed?

After some measurement, Guangxu and the ministers quickly reached an agreement.

So the will was quickly preached to all the places.

"Holy Message, as soon as the Tongshu Telegraph Office receives a telegram from the Nagasaki Mission, it will immediately call back and order the suspension of the trip to standby, and not to go to Tokyo without a decree."

"Holy Message, the Lushun Beiyang Naval Division is immediately ready and waiting for combat orders at any time."

"Holy Message, Liu Kunyi, the minister of the Qin Mission, immediately allocated two thousand proficient artillery troops to the Dagu Fort in Jinmen to defend, and returned to the former Penghu Town General Wu Hongluo to control it; The rest of the army and the Dingwu Army joined forces, and immediately set off for Jizhou in the starry night to participate in the Jizhou war. ”

"Holy Decree, Li Bingheng, the governor of Ludong, immediately gathered troops to fortify Yantai and waited for combat orders at any time."

"Holy Message, Wang Wenshao, Deputy Minister of Beiyang of Jinmen, immediately do a good job in the defense of Jinmen; Jinmen Dao Sheng Huaixuan, do a good job in the logistics of the army. ”

"Holy Decree, all localities enter Beijing to train their troops, and they all march quickly, but those who hesitate and delay will be severely punished afterwards!"

"Holy Decree, Zhang Zhidong, Governor of Liangjiang, will step up his efforts to supervise the delivery of military funds to Beijing by the Jiangnan Ordnance Bureau, and at the same time continue to increase the purchase of Atlantic arms."

——

With the issuance of one edict after another, the war machine of the Qing Dynasty, which had just shown signs of slowing down, was once again running at high speed.
