The enemy is far away from the enemy, and the lonely Mo Shu Yu Sun does not observe the too

The first is that Britain and France reacted quite strongly.

While preparing for a military attack in the East China Sea and parts of the surrounding areas of the Chinese Empire, the British sent an envoy to meet Chen Zhong urgently.

The British Crown's envoy Cainbell came to Chongming Island, met with Chen Zhong, and put forward their views on the concession of Hong Kong and Shanghai.

Carnbell said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, the British Concession in Hong Kong and China is expressly stipulated in the treaty signed between your Qing government and our Great Britain, and it has the force of law. You can't say that it is abolished, and it is abolished just like that, which is not in line with international practice. After all, the Qing government once represented your country. ”

Chen Zhong said: "Don't dwell on these boring questions with me. Even in your Western law, it is expressly stated that treaties signed under unequal conditions are null and void.

Therefore, there is no point in dwelling on these issues any longer. Now you British should be thinking about the handover of Hong Kong and other concessions in our country. It's not a question of your legitimacy in the concession!

The enemy is far away, and the earth and the moon are too young

As for the timing of the handover of Hong Kong, give you the British three months. However, there is a premise, if there is a war between us, my army will be directly stationed in Hong Kong! ”

The British king's envoy, Karnbell, shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said, "Your Majesty, if you have this attitude, I think our fleet may receive an attack order from the British king tomorrow." ”

Hatred is not cold, and hatred is too knotted

Chen Zhong sneered and said, "Then be it, I don't want to waste any more time with you!" ”

The British envoy Caenbell still wanted to fight for it, but Chen Zhong's guards had already signaled to him that the time for negotiations was over.

The enemy is not hateful, and the orphan is not cool after learning secrets

Soon, news was received from the envoy in Britain that the British king had ordered the British ** team to prepare for war against the army of the Chinese Empire.

Chen Zhong ordered Li Chuang's Northeast Army to prepare for the invasion of the Russian army on the northeastern border.

The 12th Cavalry Brigade and the 38th Mixed Brigade of the Blade Special Operations Unit stationed in Tibet were ordered to prepare for the attack of the British army in India.

The Sixth Army, led by Commander Chang Jinghong, was ordered to prepare for the armed garrison of Qi Gang in Guangzhou.

At the same time, Chen Zhong ordered the Liaison Department to announce that the Japanese army had crossed the exercise area without authorization, and that the East China Sea Fleet of the Chinese Empire had annihilated all the unknown ships that had entered the exercise area because they were carrying out the order of the exercise.

Sun does not enmity and hatred of Yang by the secret Sun Jicha

It was ordered to change the command of military exercises in the East China Sea to the command of operations in the East China Sea.

The original demarcated area for military exercises in the East China Sea will continue to carry out the original order.

At 3:40 a.m. on 6 November, a guerrilla formation of the Japanese Combined Fleet quietly approached the sea area demarcated by the military exercise in the East China Sea.

At 3:42 a.m., the East China Sea Operations Command of the Chinese Empire received a report from a forward reconnaissance submarine: A Japanese guerrilla fleet had arrived in the East China Sea exercise area and was trying to continue to go deeper.

The knot is not a month to learn to test Sun Ji's secret

According to the report, the Japanese guerrilla formation consisted of a large battleship of 23,167 tons, three medium-sized battleships, four cruisers and two torpedo boats.

At 3:42 a.m., the East China Sea Operations Command of the Chinese Empire received a report from a reconnaissance submarine in the front that a Japanese guerrilla fleet had arrived in the exercise area of the East China Sea and was making further attempts to go deeper.

Chen Zhong instructed Chen Fangzheng to start attacking when the Japanese troops entered the demarcated exercise area, and to use torpedo submarines to carry out torpedo attacks on the tail part of this Japanese guerrilla formation from underwater, and never let go of one of them, and annihilate them all!

After receiving an order from the General Headquarters, the forward submarine unit asked for instructions: "If the head of the Japanese guerrilla formation enters but the tail does not enter our exercise area, what should be done?"

Chen Zhong said: "Resolutely sink them, no matter where they are, as long as one of the ships of this guerrilla formation enters our exercise area, it means that all of their Japanese fleets have illegally entered our exercise area." Even if you run away, you have to catch up and defeat them! ”

At 4:17 a.m., this guerrilla formation of the Japanese army formed a long snake formation and stood on the edge of the East China Sea exercise area.

The battleship "Yamamoto" led by the "Yamamoto" stopped at the front of the exercise area and watched for a long time the three fleets of the Chinese Empire in the East China Sea exercise area.

The captain of the "Yamamoto" Kawayasu Akiyu Osa, stood silently on the deck for a long time, and he knew very well what it would mean for the guerrilla formation he led to carry out the order to explore the way.

A cold sea breeze blew, a little desolate in the bitterness, Chuankang Qiuyu Dazuo quietly listened to the sound of waves hitting on the sea in late autumn, and was silent for a long time.

Shigeru Nakasa, Oshima, who was beside him, said: "Kawayasu Daisa, fleet commander Yamamoto Kudi has ordered our fleet to start entering the area of the East China Sea exercises. ”

It was 5:43 a.m. when it rained in the autumn of Chuanyasu, so he ordered the fleet to sail into the East China Sea exercise area.

The enemy is far away, and the enemy is far away, and he is the enemy of Sun Lenggang

At 5:46 a.m., the East China Sea Operations Command on Chongming Island received a report from a forward reconnaissance submarine: The Japanese guerrilla formation had two ships and had entered the East China Sea exercise area.

At the same time, Emperor Meiji sent a special envoy to meet with US President Taft, demanding that the United States show sincerity in cooperating with Japan and order its Pacific Fleet to attack the navy of the Chinese Empire!

Chen Fangzheng ordered the East China Sea Fleet, which was in the middle of the three fleets, to launch an artillery attack on the Japanese ships that had entered the exercise area in the East China Sea.

At the same time, the submarine forces were ordered to attack the tail of the Japanese guerrilla formations from under water!

In an instant, the silent sea of the East China Sea was full of artillery fire, and the Japanese fleet "Yamamoto" immediately returned fire, stopped advancing, and changed formation, the front team changed to the rear team, and retreated.

The 1st Battle Group of the East China Sea Fleet pursued at full speed and fired torpedoes, the "Yamamoto" was hit by shells, the cabin caught fire, and the East China Sea exercise area was hastily withdrawn.

However, the East China Sea Fleet did not stop shelling, and at the same time, underwater submarines fired torpedoes, which hit the bottom of the "Yamamoto".

After the "Yamamoto" was hit, it began to sink slowly, and the tail ships of this guerrilla formation, while retreating, collided with the mines laid in advance by the minelayers of the submarine force of the Chinese Imperial Navy, and exploded one after another and caught fire.

The East China Sea Fleet crossed the exercise area, pursued the remnants of the Japanese warships all the way, pursued them fiercely, and the underwater attack submarines cooperated with the East China Sea Fleet to attack the Japanese guerrilla formation underwater.

At 6:37 a.m., the British Far East Combined Fleet and the U.S. Pacific Fleet received a notice from the Japanese Combined Fleet at the same time: The East China Sea Fleet of the Chinese Empire had crossed the exercise area and shelled the Japanese ships, and they asked the British and American fleets to start a war against the Chinese Empire's navy at the same time!

At the same time, Chen Zhong ordered the External Relations Department to announce to the outside world that the Japanese army had crossed the exercise area without authorization, and that the East China Sea Fleet of the Chinese Empire was carrying out the order of the exercise and annihilated all the unknown ships that had entered the exercise area.

And this notice was transmitted to the British, Japanese, and American Combined Fleet Command anchored in the East China Sea, warning each of them to manage their own fleets, otherwise, they will bear the consequences!

Komura Shotaro, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, urgently met with British Prime Minister Henry Asquith and asked the British king to order his Far East Fleet to fulfill the Anglo-Japanese alliance agreement as soon as possible and attack the fleet of the Chinese Empire!

The enemy is far away from the moon to catch the ball, and the ball is revealed

At the same time, Emperor Meiji sent a special envoy to meet with US President Taft and asked the United States to show sincerity in cooperating with Japan and order its Pacific Fleet to attack the navy of the Chinese Empire!
