Chapter 142 Arriving on the island of Taiwan

The island of Taiwan covers an area of 36,000 square kilometers, including the surrounding affiliated islands. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In 1895, the Qing government ceded to Japan through the Treaty of Shimonoseki.

Japan set up the Governor-General of Taiwan as the supreme governor of colonial Taiwan, and the Governor-General's Office was set up in Taipei, implementing the dictatorial ruling system of the military attaché and the governor-general, establishing a strict police system to control Taiwanese society, and reviving the armor-protection system to assist the police politics.

At this time, the governor of Taiwan was General Sakuma Zuoma, who was the 5th governor of Taiwan.

Japan has practiced an economic policy of "agriculturally Taiwan, industrialized Japan," extracted cheap grain and raw materials from Taiwan, marketed Japan's industrial products, and developed rapidly in commercial agriculture, centered on sugarcane and rice, but most of its interests were monopolized by the Japanese chaebols, and the people of Taiwan lived in unspeakable misery.

According to the plan agreed upon by Lu Weimin and Li Zhaoshui, first occupy Taichung and divide the island of Taiwan into two, and then the troops occupy Tainan in the south and Taipei in the north, and compress the Japanese in northern Taiwan to Keelung Harbor and let it be used as bait to attract Japanese reinforcements and fleets.

At about 12 o'clock in the evening of August 31, Zhang Wei took a cargo ship to the sea west of Taichung, Zhang Wei took the staff officers and others into the system, released a Sea Lion-class torpedo boat, boarded the torpedo boat with Li Zhaoshui, and let the cargo ship go to Shanghai to pick up the immigrants and return to Beijing.

Looking at it from the system map, there is a river between Taichung and Changhua, called Wuxi, driving a torpedo boat and going upriver along Wuxi. Zhang Wei asked the driver to slow down, and the noise of the torpedo boat became very small, without alarming anyone. After driving for about 20 kilometers, we have entered the hilly area, and the surrounding area is relatively desolate.

Li Zhaoshui said: "Your Majesty, we can land here, and then it will be unsafe to sail the shipping lane, it is relatively desolate here, there are not many people, first establish a base here." “

Zhang Wei ordered the torpedo boat to dock.

Looking at it from the system map, the south bank belongs to the territory of Changhua County, and the north bank belongs to the territory of Taichung Prefecture, which is sparsely populated and belongs to a desolate area regardless of the two sides, and there is no red dot representing the enemy within 7 kilometers around, which is suitable for establishing a base here.

Now Zhang Wei's controllable range is 7290 meters, and the enemies within this range will be displayed on the map.

Zhang Wei first released a battalion of soldiers and ordered them to clear the wasteland, set up tents, and set up sniper positions in the surrounding hills, preparing to stay here for a few days and wait for news from China.

After the tent was set up, Zhang Wei entered a tent in the middle of the camp, first took out a table and a few chairs from the system, put a bed in the corner of the tent, and a simple bedroom was placed.

Put Zhao Xiaolong and Wu Fanggang out of the system, and place them in a tent next to him on the left, the tent on the right is Li Zhaoshui's bedroom, the front is the conference room and the big tent where the staff officers live, the back is the kitchen, and then to the periphery, is the tent of the soldiers in the camp.

Zhang Wei took out 2,400 cans from the system, as well as some rice, flour, oil, salt, dishes, pans, kitchen knives and other items and put them into the kitchen warehouse, so that everyone could fill their bellies, and then take turns to rest and take turns to be on guard. After saying hello to everyone, I went back to the tent to rest, and I was very tired from sailing at sea for so long.

After entering the tent, Zhang Wei first checked the system score in August, which was close to 14 million system scores, which made Zhang Wei a little excited, and these points were enough to support the occupation of Taiwan Island and the elimination of the Japanese Navy.

After getting up and washing up on September 1, a guard brought the food.

In the tents of the staff officers, Li Zhaoshui and Zhao Xiaolong proposed to Zhang Wei to set up a general staff department of the Taiwan Provincial Military Region to take charge of the army stationed in Taiwan and the navy stationed in Naha Port in Keelung and the Ryukyu Islands.

Zhang Wei agreed to their request, arranged a militia division and a regular division in Taiwan, and let them form another garrison division, which was enough to defend Taiwan.

The special staff officer of the army who came with the team this time was called Du Shihui, and Zhang Wei asked him to temporarily serve as chief of staff of the Taiwan Provincial Military Region, and he also formed a special staff officer, Wang Dajun, as the deputy chief of staff of the Taiwan Provincial Military Region. This made Du Shihui very happy, and being able to preside over the work of one party is much better than talking on paper in the General Staff.

Seeing his happy look, Zhang Wei said: "This is only temporary, and the specific correction in the future will depend on the performance." ”

Du Shihui hurriedly said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I promise to satisfy you." ”

Zhang Wei didn't want Du Shihui to be the chief of staff of the Taiwan Military Region, that would be too wasteful, after all, he had studied with Lu Weimin for so long, and he would improve somewhat, Zhang Wei wanted to put him in the three eastern provinces, give him a certain army, and slowly fight a war of attrition with Tsarist Russia until he drove Tsarist Russia's forces out of the northeast, recovered all Tsarist Russia's interests in China, and canceled the reparations in the "Xinchou Treaty".

Zhang Wei thought about it again, and it was also necessary to set up a chief of staff of the military region on the Korean Peninsula, so he synthesized a special staff officer Xia Yu to serve as the deputy chief of staff of the Taiwan Provincial Military Region, and temporarily interned under Chief of Staff Du, and after occupying the Korean Peninsula, he was appointed chief of staff of the Lelang Military Region, and let him communicate more with Wu Fanggang, and in the future, the two of them would respectively preside over the political and military affairs of the Korean colony.

Zhang Wei also released 20 senior administrative personnel and 50 middle-level administrative personnel from the system to form the Taiwan Provincial Government and local county magistrates respectively, and implemented the model of direct provincial administration of counties in Taiwan; after all, the island of Taiwan is too small, and there is no need to adopt a multi-level management model, and the lack of a one-layer administrative structure will reduce a lot of administrative expenses.

Then Zhang Wei ordered Xiao Yu'er to start synthesizing three militia divisions, one division to stay in Taiwan, and two divisions to stay on the Korean Peninsula in the future. In this way, in the future, one regular division will be stationed in Taiwan and the Korean Peninsula, three regular divisions will be stationed in the northeast, and more than 30,000 mercenaries will be stationed on the Korean Peninsula. If the war in the northeast of the Qing Dynasty was too intense, the regular divisions stationed in Taiwan and Korea could be transferred to the northeast at any time to participate in the war against Tsarist Russia, which would save a lot of time than transferring troops from the kingdom.

In the afternoon, Wu Fanggang and Xia Yu approached Zhang Wei and suggested that the Korean Peninsula should not be renamed Lelang Colony, which would increase the resistance of the Koreans, and that the Korean Peninsula could be changed to Lelang Peninsula and the name of Lelang Special Administrative Region, which was better than directly calling it a colony. Zhang Wei thought about it for a moment and agreed to their suggestion.

In the afternoon, he received a telegram from Li Civilian, saying that the intelligence officers stationed in Taipei would arrive at Zhang Wei's camp within three days.

On September 2, Zhang Wei received a telegram from Zheng Daoyou, claiming that Song Jiaoren had arrived in the Lanfang Kingdom, that he had withdrawn from the League, hoped to join the nationality of the Lanfang Kingdom in the future, and gave a general introduction to what the League had done in Japan.

Zhang Wei called back, welcoming Song Jiaoren to join the Lanfang nationality, and ordered him to temporarily serve as the vice governor of East Kalimantan Province, and make arrangements after he became familiar with the Lanfang Kingdom.

Everyone read the telegram sent by Zheng Daoyou, and they were very angry, the League was doing death, and suggested that Zhang Wei kill these traitors.
