Chapter 202: Concubine Min's Death
Chapter 202: The Death of Concubine Min
The life of the king of Joseon is still very good, and now his court is still running very smoothly, and when the original ministers learned that their king was still alive, many ministers gathered around him again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The order in Korea began to gradually restore order under the control of the Japanese and the newly established Korean New Army in Korea, and at this time the Korean prime minister was replaced by General Park Shengxing, who was originally a small garrison officer in Jinju, but he knew the facts very well, so when the Japanese army just landed, he began to open the way in front of the Japanese army!
When I saw the king of Joseon again, I showed complete respect for the fallen king, so the new prime minister's position must be that of General Park Shengxing. The facts are so difficult now, so the prime minister is a military and political leader, managing the administrative affairs of the whole of North Korea.
Keisuke Oshima, the Japanese minister to Korea, got along very well with the king of North Korea during the period of time with the Korean king, and signed a series of friendly contracts, and a very important point is that all departments in North Korea must hire Japanese advisers to guide the reform, for the future of Korea, Japan will be fully involved in all social, economic, and military fields of North Korea!
So the current king of North Korea has lost his right to autonomy and is almost confined in the palace, but King Li Xi does not feel much different, it turns out that it is almost like this, he doesn't want to manage many things at all, but now he is clean and comfortable!
But all this is something that Concubine Min can't tolerate, so Concubine Min is now moving around, contacting the old ministry while actively getting in touch with the Chinese Empire, all of which has angered Keisuke Oshima's imprisonment!
In front of the royal palace of North Korea, there is the office of the former Korean government, and it is also the headquarters of the garrison of the Zuo Guigui Army, where the face has been burned beyond recognition, and it can be seen that this was originally a very busy place, and after the Japanese army sorted out, it became the headquarters of the Japanese Second Front Army.
At this time, Keisuke Oshima had finished reading the letter, Keisuke Oshima slapped the letter on the table hard, and then said; "Yaga! This! It's really hateful, now that we have signed a contract with the Japanese Empire, we should cooperate with us well, and they are still colluding with the officers of Huaxia, what a ****! ”
The president of the Association for the Promotion of the Joint Development of Korea and Japan is a Japanese ronin named Shichichiro Gomura. It has been three years in North Korea, and in these three years he has changed from a proletarian to a rich civilized man, and he now almost monopolizes the entertainment industry in Seoul. "Offer!
So now he naturally became the guest of honor of Keisuke Oshima, and after seeing Keisuke Oshima's anger, he said; "Oshima-kun, there are still many things to do in the future of our Great Japanese Empire, so your role is very important, so leave this matter to me!"
Keisuke Oshima is very aware of the power of Shichichiro Gomura in Korea, and now that the Japanese have the advantage here, so this matter is handled by himself, which is more reassuring. Both of them raised their glasses and drank them all!
At this time, Dashan Yan was very depressed in his heart, why did the Chinese Empire set up such a set of defense lines here, it seems to be very solid, and now the army of less than 100,000 people in the first and second front armies must be unable to take both offense and defense into account, so Dashan Yan began to ask for more troops in Japan!
On the afternoon of the second day, because he drank too much yesterday, he didn't wake up until the afternoon, and the first thing he did when he woke up was to bring people to the palace of North Korea and ask to see the king and princess of North Korea!
At this time, Yi Xi and his ministers were discussing state affairs, and now the grain production in Korea can no longer meet the needs of the people, but Japan still has to collect 100,000 kilograms of grain in Korea, which makes the Korean king and cabinet ministers sad.
According to the usual practice, Concubine Min will also be on the scene at this time to help Li Xi deal with national affairs, but now the smart Concubine Min has nothing to do, it turns out that once North Korea has any difficulties, it will immediately ask for help from the Chinese Empire, but this time it is very obvious that it can no longer ask for help from the Chinese Empire.
At this moment the briefing tube outside shouted; "Onichiro Gomura asks to see His Royal Highness the King!"
Before waiting for the announcement that he could enter the hall, Gomura Shichichiro had already led people to the top of the main hall, and when he came to the center of the main hall, he looked at Concubine Min who was sitting behind the king of Joseon!
Everyone was stunned by the situation at the scene, including the North Korean Prime Minister Park Seung-sung who was at the scene, but Concubine Min seemed very calm, and at this time she also stood up and met the gaze of Shichihiro Gomura directly!
At this time, Gomura Shichichiro raised the katana in his hand, and with his right hand, he pulled the knife out of the scabbard with his backhand, and the scabbard in his left hand slowly slipped to the ground, and when the scabbard fell to the ground and rolled slowly, Gomura Shichichiro had already rushed to the front of Concubine Min, who was ten steps away, and the blade cut a shallow mark on Concubine Min's neck.
Concubine Min's neck artery, under the action of pressure, sprayed a snowfall waterfall. The ministers near Concubine Min were all stained with Concubine Min's blood, but no one made any moves. Onichiro Gomura turned around and dodged the blood, not a drop of which fell on him.
At this time, Concubine Min could no longer scream, she covered her bleeding neck, took two steps towards the apse, and then collapsed, her whole body convulsing. Until he doesn't move!
Gomura Shichichiro returned to the center of the main hall, picked up his scabbard, returned his saber to the scabbard, stuck the katana at his waist, and then bowed deeply to the Korean king Li Hee; "I'm sorry to bother you, I'm sorry for your trouble!" Then he turned around and left with his own men!
At this time, Li Xi's hands and back were already soaked, and his hands were tightly gripping the clothes on his knees, as if he was about to tear the cloth apart, but they had strength, and then he slowly lowered his head and let out a slight whimper!
At this time, Prime Minister Park Seung-sung, who was still sober, immediately ordered the public attendants to clean up the scene and place the body of Concubine Min, and the king of Joseon issued an edict to the people of Korea the next day; "Concubine Min is in a hurry! Swarming! "Not a word!
Seven days later, the king of Joseon, Yi Xi, led the civil and military officials to the royal cemetery of the king of Joseon, let Concubine Min enter the mausoleum, and install the funeral system of Joseon, Concubine Min is qualified to be buried with Yi Xi, and their main tomb has been built at the moment when Lee Hee became the king of Joseon, and it has not been completed for all these years, because this is the rule.
Knowing that Li Xi really seems to be the day when he will really finish the repair, watching Concubine Min's coffin being sent to the tomb, Li Xi is very reluctant. But now he can't do anything about it. Today's Li Xi is wearing a very handsome marshal uniform for a day!
Of course, it is not the style of the marshal's uniform of the Chinese Empire, but the marshal's costume sewn after the Japanese military uniform, which is embroidered with a big golden chrysanthemum on the chest.
But this is very ironic in the eyes of many Korean ministers, I really don't know if such a king can make a difference, so after Concubine Min's funeral, many Korean ministers went home!
Li Xi, who had no opinions and correct views, seemed even more lonely, but those Korean officials who returned home were all killed by the Japanese garrison and Japanese ronin soon on the grounds of destroying the common prosperity of Greater East Asia, destroying the friendly relations between Japan and Korea, and treating the Japanese emperor with disrespect!
The men in their family were all sent to Japan to work as coolies, and the women were all admitted to the "Comfort House for Military Companions" of the Japanese army in Korea! Young Japanese can wait until they grow up, but these Koreans are very disobedient, and it didn't take long for most of them to die!
。。。。。。
Min Yongyu in Silla Province knew that his aunt was dead, and the death was so strange, he was very sad and indignant, and he vowed to avenge his aunt, hate!
。。。。。。
The Japanese base camp has reached the request for additional troops on both fronts, and at this time the armed forces in Japan are intensively training, and now the only troops that can be sent immediately are the Guards Division, which is the emperor's imperial army, which was born in Japan at the beginning of the Meiji Restoration.
The original Japanese emperors were all under the protection of the shogun, so the emperor himself did not have any troops, but since the Meiji Restoration. With the confrontation with the shogunate, the emperor of Japan also had to have his own direct armed forces.
In order to ensure the safety of the emperor, he began to draw elites from various military systems to serve as guardsmen, and like the Praetorian Guards of the Chinese Empire, one person was also a guard in Japan, and the whole family was glorious!
Therefore, the combat effectiveness of the guards is also relatively strong in Japan, and the current strength of the guards division is only three brigades, that is, the establishment of one division, and now in the face of such a situation, the size of the guards division must also be expanded.
The commander of the Guards Division is generally held by the Imperial Family, and the current commander of the Guards Division is Prince Akihito Komatsumiya, and he is also the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Western Expedition Plan!
Faced with such a situation, the Japanese base camp must come up with countermeasures, which front army to support first, the current Chinese Empire has captured the main island of the Ryukyus, and now the Chinese Empire's army will not attack Japan from the south!
There is an unknown number of facilities, and the current Japanese strategy is to be fast enough, in a short period of time, to defeat the sharp spirit of the Chinese Empire, so that the Chinese Empire can realize that Japan's powerful power, as long as the Chinese Empire can admit defeat, then Japan's strategic goal will be achieved.
So this time Japan is ready to send troops to Korea again, attack the 38th parallel, break through the defense line here, and attack the heart of the Chinese empire by land, at that time, the Chinese empire will definitely surrender if it is afraid of the emperor's threat!
Therefore, Japan must send troops to Korea at any cost to attack the Chinese Empire. At the same time, it is necessary to arm the Koreans, so that Japan can save a lot of manpower. In order to ensure the needs of the war, the Japanese base camp promulgated the "State of War Act"!
The Act provides;
First, all citizens in Japan have to work, and the government that does not have a job will arrange jobs for these people, whether they are the elderly, children, or women, to work.
Second, Japan began to implement a wartime economy, and now it has begun to implement a system of rationing.
Third, adult males across the country must be ready to go to war at any time, ready to serve the empire at any time.
The nation's war machine is winding up again!
。。。。。。
Zhangzhidong is now in Shanghai, and the Jiangnan region is now the core area of heavy industry and civilian industry in the Chinese Empire. In order to ensure the supply of military products, Zuo Zongtang began to inspect one enterprise after another, and the most important thing is to investigate the standard!
The General Logistics Department procured materials nationwide, and Zuo Zongtang could see the production of the same model of products in each factory, which began a leapfrog development for the Chinese Empire in the unification of labeling.
The rapid development of the military industry in Shanghai and Nanjing has brought about great changes in the life and thinking of the people in these places in the south, which Zuo Zongtang always feels a little strange in his heart, but he cannot clearly express these things.
Yesterday Zuo Zongtang inspected a large garment factory, this factory has more than 300 workers, producing the clothing of the imperial army, at this time the sewing machines made by the Chinese Empire have been sold all over the country, but now the sewing machines are much larger than later, and it takes a lot of strength to step on them.
Ordinary women can't do it, but there are very few men in this business, so there was a labor shortage for a period of time at the beginning, but now there is no such situation, because the salary is high!
And what about the tailors, so many men joined the army of tailors, waited for the heavy pedals, and began to make clothes, so that the number of workers in the Chinese Empire increased many times. A tailor's salary is the most attractive!
Many factories in the Chinese Empire were based on a piecework wage system, and every morning at the door of the factory's picking warehouse, a large-scale competition would be staged, and it was time for the apprentices to show their skills.
As long as they can grab more raw materials, it means that they can earn more wages today, but since the war with Japan, there is no need to go to the picking warehouse to grab raw materials, and now the military procurement volume of the Chinese Empire is very huge, and many workers are resting for six hours a day, or can not meet the demand!
When Zuo Zongtang came to visit this factory, the factory did not make any preparations at all, and many workers did not know that the marshal of the empire was coming.
First, these people don't pay attention to their marshal, but at the same time, it also means that the current workers are no longer superior, which is very much like what the emperor has been advocating, maybe this is democracy!
Just when Zuo Zongtang continued to inspect the south, Zuo Zongtang also received an appointment from the General Staff and a telegram!
Zuo Zongtang obviously discovered that the generals of his Southeast Front Army had barely been promoted. During this period of time, the situation in the southeast was relatively peaceful, and there were no major wars, and the small bandits and other forces in the southeast were not opponents of the army at all, but these forces now were the result of the flood of guns in the Chinese Empire.
It will take time to completely eliminate these forces, and now the most important thing in the southeast is stability, now the east and west directions of the empire are very unstable, the southeast is the factory core of the empire, is the center of the empire's wealth and material processing, and stability maintenance is the key.
Zhang Zhidong stayed in Foshan for a few days, the civilian industry here is now quite developed, and the General Staff also customized a large number of materials here, and many generals of the Southeast Military Region submitted applications to him during this time!
These generals led by Cao Kun and Feng Guozhang are very unconvinced, why have those guys with mud legs already run to the front of them, we are not convinced, we also have to go to the northern front, if Marshal Zuo Zongtang can't call the shots, they will report to the General Staff and report to the emperor!
Zuo Zongtang put these telegrams next to him, and now he is seriously studying the new weapons, this is the design drawing of the Type 95 tank and the M1 tank, these weapons have been trial-produced in various arsenals, but now, there are still many things that need to be improved!
