Chapter 214: The panicked high-level of the capital

As the Japanese withdrew from their coastal positions, a regiment of the Han Army, which had followed the Beiyang Fleet, landed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

With the fierce fire of the army advancing step by step, and the support of large-caliber naval guns in the back, the Japanese army continued to retreat.

However, what the Han soldiers did not expect was that the civilians who immigrated to Ryukyu actually rushed out of their homes with cold weapons and launched an attack on the Han army.

In the dictionary of the Han army, there is no clause that cannot kill the civilians of the enemy country, not to mention that they have cold weapons in their hands, they are the enemy, and the soldiers of the Han army can shoot them one by one with a blank face.

The main island of the Ryukyus, which was only a little over 1,000 square kilometers, was quickly captured.

……

It had been ten days since the senior management of the Han army had invaded Korea and eliminated the main force of the Japanese army stationed in Korea.

When they received this earth-shattering news, the first reaction of Emperor Meiji and the members of the Kuroda Takakiyo cabinet was: Impossible!

"Haven't the people of China been on the defensive? How could there be a sudden counterattack? How could the people of China have the strength to counterattack? Are the 60,000 Japanese soldiers in front of them holding wooden sticks in their hands? How could it be defeated by the Shina people so quickly? A lot of question marks appeared in the minds of the high-level executives.

In the end, Emperor Meiji issued an order to mobilize more Japanese troops to Korea, and the enemy must be resisted.

Send more Japanese troops to Korea, but at this time, it is said that there are not many troops in the country, anyway, it is said that I am cheap, and this government has issued a conscription order to attract a large number of people to join the army, and they will be sent to North Korea after a simple training.

However, the information transmitted from North Korea to Yuben made the high-level people in Yuben worry that the advance speed of the Han army was too fast, and when reinforcements were sent to North Korea, I am afraid that most of North Korea would be occupied by the Han army, and the information obtained by the high-level officials of Yuben was what happened many days ago, and now they don't know what has eroded into the front.

The 60,000 Japanese troops were wiped out by the Han army, and the remaining more than 10,000 Japanese troops in other parts of Korea could certainly not resist the advance of the Han army, and the speed at which the Han army captured Korea was the marching speed of the Han army.

If the war is like this, it should have begged for peace with the Han Kingdom.

The main force of the navy was destroyed, the loss of the army was close to 90,000, and there was not much left of the domestic industry that was bombed.

In fact, he couldn't fight anymore, but the top leaders of the company were very unwilling, and when the war began, the company suffered such a big loss, and now even North Korea has to lose it, and the dream of a big country will be completely shattered, and even collapse, and it will become that small country that everyone bullies again.

After learning the news of the destruction of the Anglo-French combined fleet, the top management of the world was expecting Britain and France, the world's top powers, to make an all-out attack on the Han Kingdom.

Therefore, what he had to do after that was to drag on as much as possible, not to attack the Han Kingdom, but to confront the Han Kingdom across the river, hoping that Britain and France would go all out against the Han Kingdom as soon as possible, so that after the war, Yue Ben would be able to get a share of the three major powers of Britain, France, and Russia.

It's just that the top management of the country has not yet received the news that Britain and France are going all out to attack the Han Kingdom, but they have received the news that the Han army has attacked Korea and the main force of the Japanese army has been destroyed.

However, at this time, the high-level officials suddenly got the news of the fall of the Ryukyus, and the heads of the high-level officials were blank.

The Ryukyus have been occupied by the Ryukyu for so many years, and the Ryukyu has been regarded as a part of the Ryukyu itself, and tens of thousands of people have immigrated to the Ryukyus, but now the Ryukyus have been captured by the enemy, which is a more serious matter than Korea being captured by the enemy.

However, it is said that the main force of the navy has been destroyed, and the remaining navy only has two or three small fish, which is not enough for the Beiyang Fleet to fire a salvo.

Without a navy, how could the Japanese army retake the Ryukyus? Do you want the army to swim to the Ryukyus?

The panicked high-level officials now have only one thought in their minds: why haven't Britain and France made a move against the Han Kingdom?

Of course, the high-level officials in the East Asian island country did not know that at this time, Britain and France were threatened by the Han Kingdom with airships, so they could only obediently hold peace talks with the Han Kingdom, and they had no time to deal with this small island country at all.

At such a critical moment, the top leaders of Yueben could only do everything in their power to prevent the Han army from capturing more territory of Yueben.

The plan to transfer troops to Korea was completely abandoned, Korea was just a colony, and if it was lost, it should be lost, and the Japanese troops directly recruited were only sent everywhere immediately after a simple attempt to prevent the Han Kingdom from attacking from the sea.

However, now there are less than 100,000 local defenders, and most of them are new soldiers, so such a force cannot resist the Han Kingdom.

In desperation, Emperor Meiji had no choice but to call on his people to stand up and fight the enemy who invaded their homeland, and after that, militia convoys appeared all over the country, armed with a mess of cold weapons.

However, at this time, the Han Kingdom did not have the idea of occupying more of the native area, after all, he himself also had tens of millions, distributed throughout the region, and the population was relatively dense, once the Han army occupied these areas, it would be very troublesome, unless all the people in the occupied areas were killed.

The Beiyang Fleet continued to set off and advanced to other areas of the Zoben, and whenever it saw a ship flying the flag of the Zoben, it would sink it if it did not surrender, and then the Beiyang Fleet began to harass the various coastal areas of the Zoben, and whenever it found a more important target, it would bombard it with naval guns.

Although the enemy did not attack other areas of the city, the enemy's navy was wreaking havoc along the coast of the city, and there was not much industry left in the city, and there was not much left under the bombardment of naval artillery.

"Damn the British, why don't the French send a big army to kill the Han Kingdom?" Emperor Meiji, who had a much older face, cursed.

For more than a month, the Beiyang Fleet of the Han Kingdom had been wreaking havoc along the coast of Yueben for more than a month, and Yueben still did not receive any news that Britain and France were going to attack the Han Kingdom, and Yueben could not hold on.

At this moment, the senior management received a message from Kenta Takeda, the ambassador to Germany: Britain and France have again negotiated peace with the Han Kingdom, and Britain and France are at a disadvantage!

Rumble!

This news was like a thunderclap on the ground, completely blowing up the high-level officials.
