The overwhelming strength of the shogunate army, coupled with the fact that even a pro-clan such as the Kishu domain was essentially neutral in the name of King Qin, caused the shogun Tokugawa Ieki to fall into a complete panic. He not only deposed the old manaka Matsudaira Dingnobu who was attacked by the various feudal domains, but also appointed Mizuno Tadashi as the old manaka.

Mizuno Tadanari is also incapable, but his qualifications are sufficient, and he is quite deferential, and he is trusted by Tokugawa Ieki. It's just that Mizuno Tadanari is not a good person, this person is arrogant and lascivious, likes to enjoy, and has a penchant for corruption. Long before Mizuno Tadashi was appointed as an old junior, Datang's intelligence organization had infiltrated his side, and he had gradually been able to grasp Mizuno Tadanari through gifts and other means. And as Mizuno Tadanari received more and more gifts from the Tang intelligence organization, he was also deeply involved. And the Tang people also got some of his handles, so that Mizuno Tadashi had to be restrained by the Tang Dynasty.

At this time, Mizuno Tadanari ascended to the sky in one step and became the existence second only to the shogun Tokugawa Ieqi in the shogunate, and the Tang Dynasty, which had no chance to intervene, immediately sensed that this was an excellent opportunity. The agents placed in Japan also immediately approached Mizuno Tadanari and asked him to make a favorable suggestion in front of Tokugawa Ieqi.

Therefore, the first thing Mizuno Tadanari did after being appointed was to make a statement to the Tokugawa family, saying that the shogunate's military strength was now in a comprehensive inferiority, and the various feudal domains were vacillating between the shogunate and the government, and could not be trusted, and only by relying on the intervention of external forces could the shogunate army be defeated and the rule of the shogunate re-stabilized.

And the external force that the shogunate can rely on at this time is actually the Tang Dynasty. After some struggle, Tokugawa Ieki personally went to the Tang embassy and consulate in Edo and asked the Tang Dynasty to send troops to help the shogunate quell this "rebellion". The ****** side still made a fuss and said that it would report to the country in advance. The decision is made by the President. But only the next day, Tokugawa Ieki received a definite reply from Datang, and Datang President Bai Nan said that the tranquility and stability of Japan are related to the interests of Datang, and Datang will maintain Japan's stability and send troops to restore order on the islands.

Tokugawa Ieki heard that the Tang Dynasty had agreed to send troops. is also ecstatic, he doesn't know the mystery in Bai Nan's words. In his original words, he said that he wanted to stabilize the order and tranquility of Japan, but he did not say at all what form it would take or who would eventually be able to control Japan's political power. The Tokugawa family took it for granted that the Tang Dynasty sent troops to support the Tokugawa Shogunate, because the Tang Dynasty's troops were requested by the Tokugawa Shogunate. But he didn't expect at all that from Mizuno Tadanari, who suggested that he send troops, the Tang Dynasty had already planned it, and Tokugawa Ieki and his shogunate had already fallen into the trap of the Tang people.

Intervene in the War of the Fall. Bai Nan didn't bother too much, as the president, he was only responsible for some of the content of the outline, and the specific implementation details were implemented by the following war zones, ministries and local governments. The overall intervention strategy of the Tang Army had a natural goal, that is, to overthrow the existing political superstructure of Japan and eventually establish an overseas territory subordinate to the Tang Dynasty in Japan.

How to achieve this goal may be more complicated, after all, in this dispute. It is mainly a dispute between the shogunate system and the retro system of the royal government, which has nothing to do with the Tang Dynasty, a foreign force, ruling Japan. Although in the Ou overseas consulate. The locals have basically accepted the existence of the Tang Dynasty, a foreign ruler, but it also took some time, and the Tang Dynasty directly destroyed the local samurai political system and introduced a new administrative and management model, which created a Tang Dynasty's Ao Yu. It is not impossible to spread it to the whole of Japan now. But the difficulties can be imagined.

The Ministry of National Defense still believes that the scale and difficulty of participating in the war in Japan will not exceed that of the local war that ended in Vietnam not long ago. The Datang Far East Theater has strong troops stationed in this area, first of all, the headquarters of the Yamato Corps is located in Oyu, where there are a total of more than 20,000 troops in four brigades of the Yamato Corps. The German Corps also has a brigade of 5,000 troops, plus the Guwei Overseas Territory also has a regular Tang Army Zhichong Regiment, a fully mechanized infantry regiment.

In other words, the Tang Army was able to launch more than 20,000 people and nearly 30,000 troops to fight in Japan, although whether it was the Shogunate Army or the Shogunate Army, the number of troops would be larger than this number, but the larger scale of troops did not mean anything to the Tang Army. Except for the Tang Mechanized Infantry Regiment, which can rely on steel to push all enemies in this plane, the Yamato Corps and the German Corps are all quite effective units in the Tang Army. Their weapons were also one level higher than those of the shogunate and the fallen shogunate. Moreover, it must not be forgotten that the Tang Army also has the support of the Tang Navy from the sea, and the landing fleet of the Navy can send a Tang Army to any place along the coast of Japan, and its powerful firepower is enough to support the ground forces on many occasions.

Chang Bin, commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Theater, also personally came to Sendai from his headquarters in Shanghai, followed by two battalions of marines and a main fleet composed of two Dingyuan-class, two Pinghai-class, three Liberty Wind-class, and one rainstorm-class.

Since the Tang army was invited by Tokugawa Ieki to enter the country to fight, the shogunate gave the green light to the Tang army's action, and the Tang army stationed in Ou set out from Sendai and directly entered the Kanto Plain, even passing through Edo without being stopped by the shogunate army. Everyone also knows that the shogunate at this time is already a little at the end of its rope, and the Tang army is really too strong, the same army composed of Japanese soldiers, some people asserted after observing the Yamato Corps of the Tang Army, Japan's most elite soldiers are actually used by other countries, woo hoo lament.

The vanguard of the Yamato Corps drove all the way to the vicinity of Nagoya, and there was little to no trouble along the way. On the outskirts of Nagoya, as many as 40,000 shogunate troops had already surrounded Nagoya, and the Tang army did not intend to help the shogunate army attack the castle, but went straight around Nagoya and continued to advance westward. The Tang army followed the path attacked by the Sachang Alliance and killed it again. The Fallen Shogun Army had its first encounter with the Tang Army in the area of Mt. Ibuki, and although the Fallen Shogun Army fought bravely, it was still not enough to see the Yamato Corps of the Tang Army. After suffering more than 700 casualties, they had to retreat, while the Tang army successfully held Guanyuan.

Sekigahara is more than 100 years ago, Tokugawa Ieyasu finally won the battle to establish the hegemony of the Tokugawa shogunate, at this time the Tang army attacked from Sekigahara, and it seems that history repeats itself. (To be continued.) )
