Su Qun said: "Lord Wang, the Military Intelligence Department has just received information from MI7 in charge of US affairs and MI3 in charge of Japanese affairs, and the US Department of Defense has sent a special envoy Cutles to Japan. They are ready to hold consultations on the war situation on the Korean Peninsula, and the most important core issue is the issue of cooperation between the interests of the United States and Japan in the Far East. ”
After Chen Zhong glanced at these two military intelligence reports, he said: "This king should have thought a long time ago that this time, the Japanese dared to start a war against the Hainan army stationed in Korea again, which shows that the Japanese clown must have found a master."
The U.S. economy is now growing rapidly, becoming the second largest economy in the world. The interests of the Far East are full of incomparable temptations for them, and they have taken a fancy to the vicious dog of Japan, so that the United States and Japan come together and act in cahoots, which is a thing that will happen sooner or later. ”
Su Qun said: "Lord Wang, according to MI7, the US military may have to dispatch its Pacific Far East Fleet to the Yellow Sea. ”
"yes, I see. Minister Su, you ordered MI3 and MI6, which is in charge of the northeast, to pay close attention to the movements of the Japanese army and the ROK near Yanjijian Island in Jilin in the northeast of China. ”
"Yes! Rajah. Su Qun looked at Chen Zhong with some confusion and said, "Will there be any changes in that place?" ”
Chen Zhong is also difficult to explain to Su Qun, because this is a history that is about to happen, and only he, a person who has crossed over, will know.
So, Chen Zhong said: "Nothing, this king just thinks that something may happen in that place recently." ”
"Yes, lord, I'll do it." Su Qun looked at Chen Zhong, he felt that the king of Hainan was a little weird, and thought to himself, maybe a big man like the prince has a kind of political sensitivity.
After listening to Su Qun's report from the Military Intelligence Department, Chen Zhong immediately called General Chen Fangzheng.
"General Chen, after ordering your Bohai Fleet to carry out the mission of shelling Ganghwa Island, the main warships will sail south to the vicinity of the Tsushima Strait and line up on the north shore of the Tsushima Strait. The main battleship of the Hainan fleet was ordered to approach Taiwan. ”
"Yes, my lord! Is this naval operation going to hit Taiwan or Japan? Chen Fangzheng asked.
"This time, let's do deterrence first, and if the situation escalates further, then we will directly take down Taiwan! In addition, if the Pacific Far East Fleet of the US military is serious, then give them some color. ”
"Lord Wang, the British shipyard telegraphed us that the six warships we ordered in Britain the year before last will be delivered by the end of this year."
Chen Zhong said with a smile: "General Chen, your Admiralty is getting richer and richer, and after these six warships are successfully tested in the water, with our own warships, we will build another East China Sea Fleet in Hainan." The Chongming Island Military Port in Shanghai is also about to be completed recently, and from now on, preparations will begin to be made for this fleet, as well as the question of the commander of this fleet, you should organize the list of these commanders as soon as possible and report it to this king. ”
"Yes! Rajah. ”
"The Northeast issue, you go with this king, this time, maybe it's a little more complicated. You get ready, and you're going tonight. ”
Chen Zhong knew very well that this time, the US Pacific Fleet came to the Korean Peninsula to demonstrate to Hainan, and if they did not completely destroy their illusions this time, they would intensify their efforts, so he had to go there himself, and this time he wanted to give these self-righteous Yankees some color!
At this moment, in Gangneung Prefecture on the Korean Peninsula, Ito Hirobumi was worried about the affairs of the Korean Peninsula, and he had advocated that Japan suspend its attack on the Hainan army in the northern part of Korea, but Aritomo Yamaguchi advocated that he should take advantage of the civil war between Hainan and the Qing court to attack the Hainan army by surprise and retake the northern part of Korea.
Yamagu's proposal was supported by the United States, which, in addition to promising to provide financial assistance for the Japanese attack on North Korea, was also willing to send the Pacific Far East Fleet to cheer it on, possibly in due course.
After receiving this promise from the Americans, Yamaguchi Aritomo encouraged Emperor Meiji to send troops to North Korea. Emperor Meiji considered it in many ways. In the end, the suggestion of Yama County Aripong to attack the North Korean garrison in Hainan was adopted.
Since the beginning of the previous year, Japan and Hainan have reached an agreement to tentatively allow each side to occupy half of the land on the Korean Peninsula.
The following year, Ito Hirobumi came to South Korea and served as the first Japanese Commander-in-Chief in Korea, overseeing Korean diplomacy and directing the activities of Japanese officials in Korea.
During the more than a year that Ito Hirobumi was in charge of government affairs in southern Korea, he formulated and promulgated the "Decree on the Unified Supervision Office" in North Korea, and Ito Hirobumi became the "Emperor of Korea."
King Gojong of Korea was extremely dissatisfied with Ito Hirobumi's behavior, but under the intimidation of the Japanese army, Gojong of Korea was helpless.
Therefore, King Gojong of Korea secretly sent envoys to the Hague International Conference to complain about Japan's aggression. But this matter was discovered by Hirobumi Ito.
Ito Hirobumi took advantage of this incident to force the abdication of Gojong in North Korea and forced North Korea to sign the "Japan-Korea Treaty".
This move by Ito Hirobumi completely deprived the South Korean government of its internal power. Immediately afterwards, Hirobumi Ito disbanded the Korean ** team. This hypocrite has complete control over the regime in South Korea, South Korea.
Ito Hirobumi advocated the rule of the bunji, and he did not approve of the repressive measures that Aritomo Yama always used to conquer Korea.
He liked to use a kind of ideological edification to make these conquered people submit willingly.
Now, in the face of the war situation in Seoul, Ito Hirobumi still advocates negotiations with Hainan, not hoping to continue to expand the situation, but hoping to stop the war around Seoul as soon as possible and quickly enter into the peace negotiation process with Hainan.
Yamaguchi asked Emperor Meiji of Japan for more troops, and asked the United States to fulfill their promise to send the U.S. Pacific Fleet to the waters of the Korean Peninsula to provide military assistance to the Japanese army.
Jiro Okamura, commander of the 16th Division of the Japanese Army in Seoul, reported the battle situation in Seoul and the battle on Ganghwa Island to Aritomo in Yamagu, and he asked Aritomo in Yamaguchi to send reinforcements immediately to relieve the siege of Seoul.
When Jiro Okamura asked for help from Aritomo in Yama County, outside Seoul, two wings of the Japanese 16th Division and one field artillery wing had been completely annihilated by the Hainan army.
Only one infantry wing of the Japanese army was left in the city of Seoul to defend Seoul.
After receiving a telegram from Jiro Okamura asking for help, Aritomo immediately dispatched two infantry teams and a Noyama artillery wing to support Seoul, and told them to abandon Ganghwa Island if necessary, but to ensure that Seoul was unharmed.
At the same time, he also asked the US Far East Fleet in the Pacific Ocean to give them some support.
After receiving the telegram from the Japanese army, the US Far East Fleet asked for instructions from home, and an hour later, it received an order from Washington that they could sail to the Yellow Sea and deal with it as they pleased!
