Lin Fei is actually scaring the British, India is a huge quagmire for Lin Fei, Lin Fei will not fall into it, but Lin Fei's attitude towards India is the top secret of the Chinese Empire, except for Lin Fei himself, almost no one knows, so the British don't know if Lin Fei will really take India.

India is extremely important to Britain, India is known as the "crown jewel of the British Empire", is the largest raw material supply base and overseas market for the United Kingdom, without India, the British Empire will be eclipsed.

At this time, although the British Empire has been surpassed by the United States in terms of economic indicators such as total industrial output value and gross domestic product, and the high-tech aspects such as the power industry and the engine industry are not even comparable to Germany, it is still the world's largest country and the world's largest power, and Britain will definitely not give up India.

Although India was very important to Britain, Britain really did not dare to start a large-scale war with the Chinese Empire in India, because Britain no longer had a navy, and India's industrial strength was very weak, and it could not provide a large number of weapons and equipment for the army, which was not enough to resist the attack of the Chinese Empire.

Once Britain fell into the quagmire of war with the Chinese Empire in India, the result would inevitably be disastrous, because the British colonies in the Middle East and Africa were still facing the competition of Germany and France, and Britain did not dare to put all its strength in the war with the Chinese Empire.

For this reason, Britain decided to lease Ceylon Island to the Chinese Empire, so the Chinese Empire and Britain began negotiations, the negotiation process was very smooth, and the two sides soon reached an agreement, the Chinese Empire leased Ceylon Island for a period of 199 years, this figure was determined at Lin Fei's insistence, and the British originally wanted to set the lease period as "99 years".

The Chinese Empire leased the island of Ceylon and immediately began to build a military port, which was also an important port during British rule, but the British did not use it as a military port.

After the Chinese Empire took the island of Ceylon, it concentrated its efforts to clean up Japan, and Japan did not surrender at this time, so Lin Fei decided to dispatch troops to strike at it to a certain extent and speed up the process of Japan's surrender.

In fact, the reason why Lin Fei wanted to dispatch troops was because Lin Fei wanted to practice air-ground coordination tactics, the planes of the Chinese Empire had always been used to attack warships, and in future wars, it was impossible to have air-sea battles alone, and ground wars were also indispensable.

Especially in the war in the Middle East, if Lin Fei wants to enter the Middle East region, it is far from enough to have a naval battle, there will definitely be a land war, because Britain, Germany, France and Russia all have ground forces in the Middle East, and Lin Fei's ground forces will inevitably fight them.

In terms of ground attack, Lin Fei did not send the Nine Flying Dragon fighters, but sent another type of fighters, which was named "Sky Eagle" by Lin Fei.

This type of aircraft is mainly responsible for ground attack missions, which can be regarded as a type of "front-line support fighter", in fact, the Nine Flying Dragon fighter has a very strong ground attack ability, and it can also complete the ground attack mission, but Lin Fei still let this type of "Sky Eagle Fighter" enter service, the main reason is that the manufacture of the Nine Flying Dragon fighter is too complicated.

The body of the Nine Flying Dragon fighter is made of aluminum alloy and steel, the smelting of aluminum alloy is more difficult, the cost is high, and the output is low, so the Nine Flying Dragon fighter is difficult to equip on a large scale, and the processing speed of aluminum alloy is relatively slow, and the body of the Sky Eagle fighter is all wooden, the price of wood is much cheaper than aluminum alloy, and the processing of wood is very convenient.

It is for these reasons that the Sky Eagle fighter can be equipped with troops on a large scale and become a powerful weapon for ground support.

Lin Fei's first battle against Japan was chosen on Iki Island.

Iki Island, with an area of 163 square kilometers, 17 kilometers from north to south and 14 kilometers from east to west, became an outpost against the Chinese Empire's attack after the Chinese Empire occupied Tsushima Island, and Japan deployed about 30,000 troops on this small island.

Iki Island is only 60 kilometers away from Tsushima Island, which is enough for the Sky Eagle fighters on the island to take off and bomb the island indiscriminately, because when the Sky Eagle fighters carry four 30-kilogram bombs and 1,000 rounds of machine artillery shells, the combat radius is 300 kilometers.

Lin Fei deployed 200 Sky Eagle fighters on Tsushima Island, and the planes of this era were simple to manufacture, so it was not a problem to put in hundreds or thousands of planes at a time, and on 18 May, Lin Fei ordered the Sky Eagle fighters on Tsushima Island to bomb Iki Island.

Because Tsushima Island and Iki Island are relatively close, so the Eagle fighter can carry more bombs, this time each Eagle fighter carries ten bombs, because the Eagle fighter is a dedicated ground attack aircraft, so the attachment point has been specially designed, under the belly and at the root of the wing, ten attachment points are set up, dense, people with dense phobia dare not look.

Although the Japanese army realized the importance of equipping anti-aircraft artillery, they had no choice but to use all the steel resources in Japan's reserves to make artillery vehicles and artillery, and the anti-aircraft artillery received very few resources.

On the battlefield of Iki Island, the Japanese troops without anti-aircraft artillery could only be beaten passively, and the bombing lasted for about an hour, and almost all the fortress fortifications and breastwork trenches of the Japanese army were blown up, and some aerial bombs even detonated the minefields laid by the Japanese army, and the mine arrays carefully deployed by the Japanese army also lost their effectiveness.

After the bombing, the army, with the support of the navy, began the landing, and after the landing, the Japanese troops came out of the bomb shelters one after another to fight the landing force.

When attacking, the Chinese Empire adopted the air-ground cooperative combat method, when encountering the stubborn resistance of the Japanese army, immediately summoned an air strike, the army units used smoke bombs to indicate the location of the Sky Eagle fighters in the sky, and the Sky Eagle fighters either dropped bombs or machine gun strafing, and most of the resisting Japanese troops were annihilated, and the army pushed over again, like a bamboo.

The battle lasted for a day, and with the cooperation of the Sky Eagle fighters, the Huaxia Empire defeated all the Japanese troops on the island, annihilated more than 20,000 people, and captured more than 10,000 people.

The number of prisoners reached 10,000, indicating that the Japanese army's will to resist had been greatly weakened, and the original Japanese army would rather die than surrender.

Although the Japanese soldiers are notoriously stubborn, they are human beings, not machines after all, they have parents, wives and children, they are fighting on the front line, and their parents, wives and children are not well fed and clothed in the rear (Japan is under the blockade of the Chinese Empire, and the economy is close to collapse), who still wants to be loyal to the emperor with their lives?

The results of the Battle of Iki Island shocked the whole of Japan, and Emperor Meiji was the most shocked, he had always felt that as long as the Chinese Empire attacked the Japanese mainland, it would lose a large number of troops, but now it looks at it, the Chinese Empire killed Iki Island, it didn't take much effort at all, especially the Chinese Empire came up with the tactics of air-ground coordinated operations, and the Japanese army was almost powerless in the face of this tactics.

Emperor Meiji vaguely felt that it was time to surrender, but when he thought of the surrender conditions proposed by Lin Fei, especially the condition that the Chinese Empire would write political history textbooks for Japan, he was shaken again, once Japan surrendered, it would be completely assimilated by the Chinese Empire and would never be able to turn over.

Emperor Meiji was hesitating, Lin Fei did not give Emperor Meiji a chance to hesitate, and after capturing Iki Island, Lin Fei ordered his troops to land in the Fukuoka area and launch an attack on the Japanese mainland.

On May 25, the Chinese Imperial Army landed in Fukuoka, and the defenders of Fukuoka surrendered without a fight, because the commander of the Fukuoka garrison could not bear to see the people suffer.

Fukuoka used to be close to South Korea, and there used to be a large number of factories that made goods and sold them to South Korea, but now, South Korea has become the Korean Autonomous Region of the Chinese Empire, and these factories have been forced to close, and the unemployed workers are poor and miserable, many people are starving to death on the streets, and some people even change their children to eat.

After the occupation of Fukuoka, the Chinese Empire opened the Korean market, allowed Fukuoka to trade with Korea, and the factories were reopened, and the people of Fukuoka were grateful to the Chinese Empire.

In fact, this is the case in any country, the vast majority of the people do not care about politics, only care about their own lives, only a small part of the people care about politics, stabilize the former, subdue the latter, there will be no major turmoil in a country.

The Chinese Empire won one after another, and the Meiji Emperor's will to resist was increasingly weakened, and he finally could not support it, so he ordered the Japanese Consul General in the Chinese Empire, Mutsu Munemitsu, to see Lin Fei, and during the talks, Mutsu Munemitsu conveyed the intention of the Meiji Emperor, as long as the Chinese Empire did not assimilate Japan nationally, the Meiji Emperor issued an edict to surrender.

The so-called Chinese Empire did not assimilate Japan nationally, that is, China recognized that the Japanese nation was not a branch of the Chinese nation, but Japan recognized that Chinese culture had a profound and positive influence on Japanese culture, and that China was Japan's teacher.

Japan has made such concessions, Lin Fei is not enough, what Lin Fei wants is to completely eliminate Japan culturally, hundreds of years later, the Japanese identify themselves as Chinese, and the Yamato nation is just a nation in China.

Lin Fei resolutely opposed Japan's proposal and told Mutsu Munemitsu: "You Japan have no choice. ”

Mutsu Zongguang had no choice but to leave, what Lin Fei didn't expect was that as soon as Mutsu Zongguang left, Xiyun came to see him, and Xiyun came to intercede for the Japanese.
