In the past few days, the content of the telegrams sent by Zhu Erdian to the Japanese has always exceeded the bottom line of the Japanese.

This time too, even more excessively than the previous ones.

I just told you before, I, Wang Bin, hope to exchange the independence of South Manchuria and Korea in exchange for the extrication of the Japanese army from the predicament of the group of Japanese troops who immediately see Shangwen, this time it is even more ruthless, judging from the telegram sent by Zhu Erdian, Wang Bin directly told the Japanese that no matter what kind of conditions labor and management will not accept, and if you like to talk, you will not talk about it.

Anyway, I'm on such a condition, if I don't accept it, I'll wait for Shangwen to be trapped to death.

As soon as this telegram arrived, many people could not sit still, and if Wang Bin agreed to the previous conditions, the DPRK would still be in his hands, and the mainland policy could continue in an orderly manner, and abandoning South Manchuria was nothing more than an effort to set back the previous mainland policy by several years.

However, once Korea is lost, the fruits of the efforts made since the Meiji Restoration can be said to be in flames, and how can Japan, which has always sought the status of a great power, endure it.

All of a sudden, some high-ranking generals in the army suddenly began to clamore for troops to attack Mukden, even if there were many dead people, they would make this Wang Bin, who did not know whether he was alive or dead, become a figure in history.

Against this background, the entire army began to be a little nervous, and if it were not for the fact that the cabinet had to agree to start a war, it is estimated that the military would have increased its troops in the direction of Mukden on its own.

"Dashan Army, now the demands of the people of China are so rude, is it possible that we should give in like this."

In Oyama Iwa's mansion in Tokyo, Heihachiro Togo, Gonbei Yamamoto and others gathered together to speak.

"Yes, Dongxiang Jun's statement is very reasonable, Dashanjun, now that the conditions of the people of China are so harsh, we might as well take advantage of this time to directly expand the war, send more troops to directly take the three eastern provinces, and teach this Wang Bin, who doesn't know whether to live or die, teach a good lesson."

After Heihachiro Togo finished speaking, the more radical Yamamoto Gonbei demanded that all troops be sent to directly defeat the three eastern provinces.

After the two finished speaking, they looked at Dashanyan, wanting to know what kind of attitude Dashanyan had towards this dispatch.

"According to what you said, if the war is directly expanded, what should I do with Lijian-kun, who is still under siege, you must know that once we make a move here, Wang Bin of China will know immediately.

At that time, I am afraid that our army has just been ready to expand the war, and the 50,000 soldiers who are besieged by Immediately Jianjun will be completely annihilated. ”

Although Dashanyan likes to gamble, the lives of 50,000 soldiers do not allow him to gamble, so Dashanyan has always maintained an extremely cautious attitude in terms of sending troops.

No one knew that once the war expanded, Lijian Shangwen, who was short of ammunition and still besieged to the death, would be able to support Wang Bin's attack for a few days.

"We shouldn't care about it at all, it is an honor for him and the 50,000 soldiers who were besieged to give his life in the service of His Majesty the Emperor."

The only person who can speak like this is Nogi Noshinori, who was condemned by the domestic people after the end of the Russo-Japanese War because of the huge casualties in the Battle of Arthur.

Later, when he reinstated Emperor Meiji of Japan, he blamed the heavy price paid for the attack on Lushun and was willing to apologize with death, but Emperor Meiji pardoned him again and gave him a first rank of merit, from the second, to the earl, and to be a military senator.

This time, I went to the mansion of Dashan Rock again to participate in this discussion.

Nogi Noshinori's extremely paranoid words fell into the ears of Yamamoto Gonbei and others, and Yamamoto Gonbei and others subconsciously ignored Nogi Noshinori's words.

The lives of 50,000 soldiers could not be such a child's play, and only Nogi Noshinori, a man who could do whatever it took to achieve his goals, could say such a thing.

"Nogi-kun's words are really a bit excessive, in my opinion, as long as the intelligence work is done properly, and the army is transported by sea to Mukden in a short period of time, I think if the 50,000 soldiers of Limi-kun resist desperately, it should not be a serious problem to support the arrival of our follow-up army."

After Nogi Noshinori finished speaking, Togo Heihachiro said his own plan, Togo Heihachiro and Oyama Iwa like to gamble when fighting, this time Togo Heihachiro is betting that the army under Shangwen will be able to support the arrival of reinforcements.

This time, Dashan Yan gave up the gamble and became a cautious faction.

In the face of this plan, many officers chose to approve of it, but Dashanyan still had some opposition, and in Dashanyan's eyes, the expenditure of military expenses for another war was a huge problem.

In the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese government owed a lot of foreign debts because of military spending, and although it had the help of the British, now a year has passed, and the domestic economic development is still extremely slow.

In the event of a sudden expansion of the war, it would be better to endure the current economic situation than to suffer casualties among the soldiers and the military expenses required to send troops to Japan.

After a year or two after the domestic economy has stabilized and the navy and army have recovered, it is not too late to take Korea and South Manchuria again.

"As for the thoughts of the monarchs, I still think that we are not suitable for a large-scale war now, and I also know that once I accept this condition, it will not only be extremely disappointing in the country, but also a huge blow to the national strength."

As soon as Oyama Yan's words came to this, Yamamoto Gonbei couldn't wait to say.

"Dashan-kun, what kind of attitude do you have to say directly."

"Gentlemen, my attitude is very simple, whether we accept the conditions of the Shina people or not, it will be a huge blow to the empire, and we may win or lose at the beginning of the war......"

Before Da Shanyan's words were finished, Nogi Noshinori hurriedly interrupted Dashan Yan's words and said, "How can the imperial army lose? ”

In Nogi Noshinori's eyes, as long as the empire has enough troops, it will be able to win the war.

Da Shanyan, who was interrupted, did not look angry, but continued: "According to the information of the intelligence department, Wang Bin is currently expanding the army on a large scale in the rear, and according to the available information, the number of Wang Bin's army expansion this time may be about 100,000. ”

Just this sentence, all the generals here felt a trace of pressure, before only 70,000 or 80,000 troops pressed and beat the elite of more than 100,000 in the empire, and now the people of China have expanded their army again, and they have expanded the army by 100,000 people at one time.

There was a pause in the scene, and only after a minute did Oyama continue: "In view of this situation, my suggestion is simple, now is not the time for us to make a decision, and it is up to His Majesty the Emperor to decide for himself what we should do. (To be continued.) )
