The huge whistle not only allowed Liu Jun and the others to clearly see Sasebo, but also saw the two battleships moored in the harbor.

For these two battleships, Liu Jun only knew a rough idea, and he didn't pay much attention to them, after all, it was very simple for him to sink them.

"Head, there aren't many big guys in this combined fleet, and there are a lot of small loaches." Zhong Lin, who was standing on the bridge, pointed to the gunboats and torpedo cruisers moored next to him, which were only about 2,000 tons.

At present, except for Fuso Yaeyama Matsushima, the rest of the ships are small warships, about 2,000 tons.

"Don't underestimate it, these little loaches are fast, and our large warships are no match for them in terms of speed." Li He was the commander after all, and when he saw that Zhong Lin was a little underestimating these small warships, he smiled slightly and reminded him.

"Alright, don't make a fuss, let's go to the shore." Liu Jun poked the two who were muttering. Then, with a good-natured smile, he began to wave at the Japanese people who came to welcome him on the bridge.

The ceremony was very grand, at the headquarters of the Combined Fleet, the Japanese side headed by Ito Hirobumi carried out a grand welcome ceremony and banquet for the visiting Beiyang Naval Division, and after the banquet, according to the arrangement, Liu Jun was densely escorted to the hotel by the guard regiment and the Japanese military police, and began to rest.

At the Japanese Combined Fleet Command, Hirobumi Ito, who had been smiling since Liu Jun got off the ship and went ashore, was now sitting gloomily at the headquarters looking at the naval officers of the Combined Fleet who were in a daze on both sides, and his heart was full of anger.

Today, when the Beiyang Naval Division arrived at the military port, some of the people here actually showed a look of fear when the Beiyang Naval Division arrived, and even the officers and men of the Navy trembled, which really damaged the image of the soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Empire and made a joke for the Beiyang Naval Division. As soon as he finished welcoming Liu Jun tonight, he hurriedly summoned the naval officers to clean up these bastards.

"I want to know, how do you usually train?" In a cold tone, Ito Hirobumi looked at Ito Yuhiro, who was sitting on the side and did not speak.

Ito Yuhiro had the bitterness in his heart, he had worked very hard to train the navy, but a few years ago in World War I, the experienced officers and men of the combined fleet had been buried in the Yellow Sea, and now these officers and soldiers are almost fishermen, although it is said that the two battleships have returned to China, but the officers and men of the navy have never been on a large warship. This is the result of the fact that the combat effectiveness of the navy is not strong at present.

In addition, the fear caused by the Beiyang Navy Division in Japan is not a matter of one or two days, it has been more than ten years, and it is too normal for the officers and men of the Navy to have such a situation.

Looking at Ito Hirobumi's face, Ito Yuhyuki was a little angry, and immediately stood up and began to tell his opinion.

Ito Hirobumi can become prime minister, then naturally there are two brushes, although he obviously heard the dissatisfaction from Ito Yuhyung's mouth, but he did not blame, after all, people tell the truth.

Seriously, even if it is himself today, when he sees that the large armored cruisers have already docked at the port of the Dingyuan Second Ship, he has some fear in his heart. It's just that at that time, because of his heavy responsibility, he didn't show it.

"What do you mean?" Softened his tone, Ito Hirofumi didn't dwell on this matter, but asked for a solution, and more importantly, a way to compete with the Beiyang sailors. The way to make Japan not afraid of the Beiyang sailors.

Ito Yuheng had already made up his mind, and immediately took a document from the adjutant and handed it to Ito.

The document doesn't look long, but the contents of it took Ito and the general three months to get out.

The above problem is only two points, increase the tonnage, continue to buy large warships or buy battleships. It is used to balance the fear of the naval officers and sailors of the Beiyang Naval Division and to contend with it.

Is this really a difficult problem? Hirofumi Ito, who put down the papers, looked embarrassed. After all, if Japan wants to buy warships of more than 3,000 tons, it must obtain the consent of the Qing Empire, after all, when the "Tianjin Treaty" was signed, how many foreign envoys were present, and if it blatantly purchased warships and expanded its navy, it would cause international questions and even questions from the Qing Empire.

Ito Yuheng also understood this reason, and looked at the prime minister's face with a sad expression: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, why don't we discuss with the Qing Empire, revise the treaty, and abolish the restrictions on our naval development?" ”

"Give me a reason, or give the Qing Empire a reason." Ito pondered for a long time and asked clearly word by word.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, the Qing Empire, like us, has a common enemy." Yuhiro Ito has long figured this out.

Japan's enemy is not the Qing Empire, although the Qing Empire has now trained a new army, but in the eyes of Japan, it is just a toy to play the house, Japan's real enemy is Liaodong, it is Liu Jun, and the same is true of the Qing Empire, the biggest enemy is not a foreign enemy, but Liaodong, if the communication with the Qing Empire is good, it will clear the powerful relationship, then he believes that the upper officials of the Qing Empire will definitely support the revision of the "Tianjin Treaty" and cooperate with Japan to jointly fight against Liu Jun.

Vicious, Ito Yuheng's plan directly caught the death hole of the Qing Empire, what the Qing Empire was most worried about was that Liu Jun would visit, this Ito Yuheng was really sad, and he even got the plan out.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, I request to go to the Qing Empire in person and secretly discuss this matter?" It's hard to make up your mind when I see Hirobumi Ito. You Heng stood up all of a sudden, he was sure that he could convince the Qing Empire.

"Okay, you guys go, but you must keep it secret, and when the Beiyang Sailor leaves, you are on your way."

Liu Jun came to Japan not to report any visit, but to deter Japan. At the time of the three days, it was called a visit, but in fact there were tens of thousands of waters, and the Beiyang Naval Division, which had been anchored in the port for three days, finally at noon on the fourth day, under the Huang Matsu, the commander of the Combined Fleet Ito Yuheng and Prime Minister Ito Hirobumi, left Sasebo and began to return to Lushun, but what Liu Jun and the officers and men of the Beiyang Naval Division did not expect was that less than three hours after they left, several mysterious figures boarded a German cargo ship, and the direction of the cargo ship was Tianjin.

Beijing City, Yi? His body is getting worse day by day, and since the new year, he has been coughing all the time, and sometimes even coughing up blood. The pillar of the Great Qing Kingdom, I'm afraid it has been the support department for a long time.

Ahem, cough, cough. Coughing again? Hurriedly covered his mouth with a handkerchief. After the coughing stopped, I took out the handkerchief again, and it was already blood-red.

"Lord Wang, why don't you take a break and watch the concerto." The housekeeper took a step forward with a heartache, Hope? Take a break, even for an hour.

Abundant? Shaking his head slightly, where does he have time to rest now, as the foreman of the Minister of Military Aircraft, how many pieces do he have to watch every day, and with the addition of the Prime Minister's Yamen, he can't wait to divide himself into two halves.

The current imperial court is getting a little better, and if you don't do it when you can still move, then you won't have a chance to do your best for the imperial court in the future.

"Lord Wang, there are a few Japanese people outside the door who want to see you." A guard walked in.

The Japanese, Yi? Putting down the pen in his hand, he suddenly frowned. He was clear about Japan's wolf ambitions, and he did not agree to Japan's request to revise the "Tianjin Treaty" last time. It is too clear that once Japan modifies and does not limit the tonnage of the navy, then it will go crazy with the same faceted warships, and then aim at the Qing Dynasty again, or under Liu Jun, and then at the Qing Dynasty.

"What do they dare to do?" Abundant? He stood up and asked the guards beside him.

"They said that it was a big gift to the prince and the court." The guards didn't know how to say it, so they could only say the original words of the Japanese.

What kind intentions will the Japanese have in peace, Yi? slightly, but the visitor is a guest, and he will listen to it today what the Japanese have sent to the imperial court.

"Take them to the drawing-room, and the king will come later."
