The first group of the Chinese Empire and the Huaxia Navy, after they defeated the Japanese army, they returned to the Chinese Empire, and were warmly welcomed by Li Zhongju and the ministers, Li Zhongju looked at Li Ran and Li Xiang, and his heart was also full of emotion, the Chinese Empire can develop to this point today, although Li Zhongju has the greatest credit, but Li Zhongju's important ministers are also indispensable, especially Li Ran, Liu Jiang, Song Naruto, Li Xiang and other generals.

Then Li Zhongju feasted the ministers, and the important ministers were also extremely happy, most of them also followed Li Zhongju all the way to today's point, and each of them was extremely proud in their hearts. Everyone was also very happy at this time, and they already knew that the rise of the Chinese Empire was bound to be unstoppable, and no country could stop the rise of the Chinese Empire.

Compared with Kyoto of the Chinese Empire, and even many parts of the empire, everyone has fallen into a carnival, Japan's Tokyo is like hell at this time, eerie and terrible, Emperor Meiji is like a few decades old in an instant, and the whole person has not much spirit at all, he and Ito Hirobumi, both of them are extremely sad, and it is precisely because of their miscalculation of the situation that it led to such a result, so the two of them can be said to be offended by Japan.

Emperor Meiji asked Ito in a weak voice, "Prime Minister, do you think we made a mistake that was so big that our Japanese army was almost destroyed, and now we have no troops to fight?" There are only some local police forces left, and I am sorry for the emperor! ”

Ito Hirofumi comforted Emperor Meiji and said, "His Majesty the Emperor doesn't have to be like this, we are all blamed for this, and we miscalculated our own strength, and at the same time, we also underestimated the strength of the Chinese Empire, and we didn't really think that their army and navy were so powerful, at this time, the Chinese Empire may really have come to the forefront of the world militarily, which is not something that others can imagine." Your Majesty the Emperor, do you remember the words of a rear admiral of the Chinese Imperial Navy who brought their Emperor Li Zhongju? 'Japan is not allowed to have any kind of army' Your Majesty the Emperor, what should we do? ”

Emperor Meiji sighed and said, "Let's form a self-defense force in the future to protect ourselves." ”

Hirobumi Ito didn't have a good way, and of course he didn't have any opinions, so Japan began to build the Self-Defense Forces under the command of Emperor Meiji, and of course this Self-Defense Force can't be compared with the Japanese Self-Defense Forces of later generations.

In fact, Japan has paid a lot of things, as long as they win that war, then everything is the most perfect, but the Japanese army lost, which means that their millions of nearly 10 million taels of silver were spent in vain. Emperor Meiji was of course not happy, but at this time they could only accept the bad news. I can only accept this unbearable thing unconditionally, but they are also holding a breath in their hearts, and as long as they have the opportunity in the future, I am afraid that they Japanese will continue to make the same choice.

After a banquet, Li Zhongju deliberately talked a lot with Li Xiang, meaning that the Chinese Empire would vigorously develop the naval cause. In fact, to put it bluntly, Li Zhongju has ideas about the Pacific Ocean, and in Li Zhongju's heart, the future Chinese Empire must have an extremely important application in the Pacific Ocean.

At the same time, Li Zhongju also telegraphed Li Shen, asking him to keep an eye on the situation in the Indian Ocean, and the Chinese Empire should also have an important influence in the Indian Ocean region.

Time flies quickly, in the blink of an eye, another three years have passed, and it is already June 1894, in these three years, Britain and France and other Western coalition forces have invaded the Chinese Empire again, and at the same time they have also sent troops from the Indian colonies to Yunnan Province of the Chinese Empire, but there is no doubt that they have all lost, and they have lost very badly.

Western countries are dumbfounded by so many excellent weapons of the Chinese Empire, they really did not expect that their army and navy a total of 800,000 invaded the Chinese Empire, but they were completely defeated, and finally the countries and the Chinese Empire signed the "Treaty of Guangzhou", which stipulated: Western countries unconditionally repay the historical relics of the Chinese nation that were snatched or taken away from the Qing court; Western countries unconditionally compensated the Chinese Empire with 150 million taels of silver; Western countries are not allowed to declare war on the Chinese Empire for twenty years, etc.

This is another war that shocked the world. At the same time, the president of the United States also held a meeting at the White House, and at the same time returned the cultural relics of the Chinese Empire, and at the same time compensated 30 million silver.

The president of the United States said to everyone, "In this world, the only country we can't offend is the Chinese Empire, the Chinese Empire is really too powerful, their emperor Li Zhongju is also one of the greatest emperors in the world, and it is Li Zhongju who leads the continuous rise of the Chinese nation, until now, the Chinese Empire has become the most powerful country in the world, there is no one." ”

The rest of the people also nodded, yes! The rise of the Chinese nation is too fast! The speed of the rise of the Chinese nation is also something that many people have not expected, and countless countries have not expected.

The development of the Chinese Empire in recent years, by no means can be imagined by ordinary people, Zhan Tianyou, as the Minister of Communications of the Chinese Empire, is also very attentive to the national railway planning, he has been almost outside the country throughout the year, for the Chinese national railway, he has also paid a lot, and now the Chinese Empire has more than 1,500 meters of railway. Zhan Tianyou has made great contributions.

Tan Sitong spent several years in the Hong Kong Fort, and was also transferred to Kyoto by Li Zhongju to serve as the Minister of Military Affairs, and under the correct leadership of Li Zhongju, Tan Sitong carried out reasonable planning for the armies of all provinces in the country, and the country was divided into nine theaters, each of which controlled several provinces.

Zhang Zhidong and Li Hongzhang took care of the affairs of the Government Council and various ministries perfectly.

In recent years, the common people have also felt that this is the life they really want, and they have full support and trust in His Majesty the Emperor and the government. The conversation was also very happy.

Li Zhongju was already in the Forbidden City at this time, dealing with all kinds of important matters, Wang Wu was next to Li Zhongju to make a cup of hot tea, and Xiaomei also fanned Li Zhongju. Li Zhongju was also extremely happy.

As early as a year ago, Li Zhongju also married Xiaomei and became the queen of the Chinese Empire, tied with Wang Wu, of course, Wang Wu did not have the slightest dissatisfaction, and the relationship between Wang Wu and Xiaomei was also very good.

Two children were playing on the side, these two children were the two children of Li Zhongju and Wang Wu, the older boy was already three and a half years old, and the younger one was only one year and eight months.

Li Zhongju and the three of them watched the two children laughing, and they were also very happy in their hearts, and everyone was smiling happily. (End of book) (To be continued.) )
