Lin Daxin is still quite satisfied with the "North Korean Agreement", after the signing of this agreement, he is equivalent to occupying most of North Korea's territory, which is much more than the North Korean territory in modern time and space, and there are at least 8 million North Koreans on most of North Korea's territory, and more than 100,000 Han people living in North Korea, which is the population that Lin Daxin needs most!

Because the Qing Dynasty forbade the people in the Guannai to immigrate here, the population of all ethnic groups in the entire three northeastern provinces was less than 3 million, of which at least 1 million were Manchus.

Lin Daxin has now occupied the three northeastern provinces, and wants to develop them, so that the three northeastern provinces will become Lin Daxin's stable base, and it is impossible to do it without population!

Now these 8 million North Koreans, Lin Daxin is ready to turn them into Chinese of the Korean ethnicity, North Koreans have always envied the Chinese, North Korea has always admired Chinese Confucian culture, and the common people in North Korea are even proud to speak Chinese. Moreover, North Korea has been a vassal state of China since ancient times, and for North Koreans, it is a dream thing to become Chinese!

Sure enough, after Lin Daxin sent the 9th and 10th Divisions of the Dingbei Army to occupy the Korean towns north of the demarcation line, he announced that because the Korean royal family was controlled by the Japanese in South Korea, North Korea would henceforth break away from the Joseon Dynasty and be classified as a province of the Qing Dynasty.

And this province was named Yalujiang Province by Lin Daxin, and the Koreans in Yalujiang Province will all be Korean Chinese in the future!

8 million original North Koreans in Yalu River Province. Immediately surprised by this good news, North Korea, that is, all parts of Yalu River Province, the Korean people were overjoyed. Various celebrations were held spontaneously.

There are towns and cities where the Dingbei Army is garrisoned, and the Dingbei Army garrison is sent a variety of local specialties by the people of the Yalu River Province who are happy, and they sing and dance outside the Dingbei Army garrison to welcome the Dingbei Army garrison.

The garrisons of the Dingbei Army in Yalujiang Province were strictly disciplined and did not commit any offence against the local people, and they quickly won the support of the local court, coupled with the preferential treatment of the Dingbei Army. With the acquiescence of Lin Daxin, many local young people of the Korean clan signed up for the Dingbei Army. The Dingbei Army also treated these young people of the DPRK nationality equally.

Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu who have returned to Beijing. After receiving the news that Lin Daxin led his troops to attack Korea, he couldn't help but look at each other, this Lin Daxin was too rampant, and he even ignored the armistice treaty just signed between the imperial court and Japan. Attack North Korea without authorization!

It didn't take long for the imperial court to get news that Lin Daxin's Dingbei Army and Japan, under the mediation of the envoys of the five countries in Korea, signed an agreement, and Japan gave more than half of the territory north of Korea to the Dingbei Army!

Immediately, the imperial court received an excerpt from Lin Daxin to the imperial court, removing the high-sounding words, which means that the Dingbei Army has obtained most of the land in Korea. Now most of this North Korea is classified by Lin Daxin as the Yalu River Province of the Qing Dynasty. He Lin Daxin expanded his territory for the Qing Dynasty! Does the imperial court have to say that it should quickly canonize Lin Daxin as the governor of the four provinces of the three northeastern provinces plus Yalujiang Province, so that Lin Daxin can govern the four provinces in name only. Serve the Imperial Court!

The entire court has become accustomed to Lin Daxin's arrogant actions, there is no righteous indignation, and the eyes of the entire court are focused on Emperor Guangxu and the Empress Dowager Cixi!

In the Xinuan Pavilion where the Empress Dowager Cixi lived in the Forbidden City, Emperor Guangxu asked the Empress Dowager Cixi: "Dear father, now the whole court is talking about Lin Daxin, how should we deal with Lin Daxin's excerpts?" ”

Empress Dowager Cixi said in a slow voice: "Your Majesty." What do you think? ”

Emperor Guangxu paused and replied, "Dear father!" I want to do what you said in Xingtai City, Zhili. Meet Lin Daxin's request and canonize him as the governor of the three northeastern provinces plus the new Yalu River province! Use this governor of the four provinces to stabilize Lin Daxin and his Dingbei army, as well as his sailor academy practice fleet! ”

When the Empress Dowager Cixi heard this, she immediately smiled and nodded with satisfaction: "The emperor has finally started to handle things safely!" Just do what the emperor wants! In addition, the affairs of the new army must also be hurried! ”

Guangxu couldn't help but be flattered when he saw Cixi's smile, and in his impression, Cixi hadn't shown such a heartfelt smile to himself for at least a few years.

Today, the sea surface of Bohai Bay is very windy, rolling up one wave after another, the sky is already gloomy, and the heavy rain has reduced the visibility on the sea surface to a very low level. In such bad weather, a fleet of five British transport ships was sailing in the direction of the Bohai Strait to the east.

This was the last group of 7,000 Japanese troops of the Seventh Division of the Japanese Northern Route Army to retreat from Qinhuangdao in the Great Qing Dynasty, and the commander of the Northern Route Army, Yama Prefecture Aritomo, was also on one of the transport ships.

In the high cabin of a transport ship, the commander of the 7th Division, Inoue Maezen, said to Yama Prefecture Youpeng: "Commander, I don't know when we will be able to return to Daqing?" ”

Yama County Youpeng chuckled: "Inoue-kun, I believe this day will not be far away!" Our Great Japanese Army will come back! ”

In the Bohai Strait, at this time, the 9 large fast armored cruisers of the Second Fleet of the Navy of the Navy Academy were cruising here, and in the bridge of the flagship Xinghai, Jiang Huizheng was annoyed in his heart, it turned out that Lin Daxin knew that after the armistice treaty between the Qing Dynasty and Japan, Lin Daxin took the Dingbei Army to attack Korea and gave him a secret telegram at the same time, asking his Second Fleet to intercept the Japanese Northern Route Army back to Japan at sea, and the British transport ships he took sink to avenge the soldiers and civilians who were slaughtered by the Japanese North Route Army in Shengjing City. And Lin Daxin specially confessed that he wanted to destroy the corpse.

I didn't expect the Japanese Northern Route Army to retreat so quickly, and when he received Lin Daxin's order and led the fleet to the Bohai Sea to intercept the British transport ships, several batches of the Japanese Northern Route Army had already left on British transport ships, and the Second Fleet had been wandering around the Bohai Sea for two days without finding anything. Jiang Hui couldn't help but be annoyed, could it be that the Japanese had already returned to Japan on a British transport ship? Isn't this cheap to slaughter the executioners of Sheng Jing?

At this time, the radar soldier in the bridge of the Xinghai said loudly: "Commander. A flotilla has appeared to the west! ”

Jiang Hui walked to the small screen of the radar in a few steps, and sure enough, he found a few small bright spots on the west side, so he ordered: "So the warship is moving in the direction of the convoy that appears!" ”

Soon after. The Second Fleet encountered five British transport ships carrying 7,000 Japanese troops of the Seventh Division, and the commander of the Northern Route Army, Yama Prefecture Aritomo, on the transport ship, looked at the warships that appeared and went straight to the transport ship in surprise, "What are they going to do?" ”

Jiang Hui saw that these transport ships were indeed the ships transporting the Japanese Northern Route Army, and Daxi ordered nine large fast armored cruisers to bombard these transport ships.

"Boom-boom-boom-" The time was not long in the frightened shouts of the 7,000 Japanese soldiers of the 7,000 Japanese troops and the British crew on the transport ship. All five transport ships were sunk, and there was a layer of Japanese soldiers and a handful of British sailors who had jumped into the sea to escape. The commander of the Northern Route Army, Yama Prefecture Youpeng, was also dragged by his subordinates to jump into the sea to escape, and was floating on the sea with a wooden plank in his arms at this time.

Jiang Hui, the commander of the Second Fleet on the Xinghai, ordered people to salvage two Japanese soldiers, and finally Jiang Hui got satisfactory news from the mouths of the two Japanese soldiers. On top of the five sunken British transport ships were 7,000 Japanese troops of the Seventh Division and the commander of the Northern Route Army, Yama Prefecture Youpeng, who were the last to leave the Qing Dynasty.

After getting the news he needed, Jiang Hui waved to several officers and sailors of the Xinghai behind the two Japanese soldiers, and then the two salvaged Japanese soldiers were dragged out of the bridge of the Xinghai, and then there were two gunshots outside.

Subsequently, under Jiang Hui's order, nine large fast armored cruisers still did not let go of these people floating on the sea, and used the rapid-fire guns on the warships to shoot at the floating crowd on the sea, and some naval officers and sailors even held rifles and stood on the deck to shoot at the Japanese soldiers at sea.

The commander of the Japanese Army's Northern Route Army, Yama Prefecture Aritomo, who was floating on the sea with a wooden plank in his arms. Hit directly by a 57-mm shell, with no bones left, this executioner who ordered the massacre of the soldiers and civilians of Shengjing City. got the end he deserved, and never had a chance to return to the land of Huaxia.

Nine large fast armored cruisers left the sea until there was no one left and returned in the direction of the Arthur base.

Lin Daxin saw that the northern part of Korea, that is, the new Yalu River Province, was already under the control of the Dingbei Army. He ordered the 6th Division of the Dingbei Army to be stationed on the north side of the agreement line and defend the direction of Korea to the south belonging to Japan! Lin Daxin only crossed the Yalu River with the guard regiment that had been following him. All the way south back to the Lushun base.

After returning to the Lushun base, Lin Daxin gathered the senior officers of the Dingbei Army and the senior naval officers of the Navy Academy in Lushun, and then Lin Daxin said: "From now on, the center of gravity of our Dingbei Army and the Navy Academy will be transferred to the four northeastern provinces, and the four northeastern provinces will be our nest in the future!" The security of the four northeastern provinces depends on all of you! Although the war with the Japanese is over, Japan has not been completely defeated by us, and maybe one day the Japanese will make a comeback, I hope you will not slack off! ”

Suddenly, a room full of high-ranking officers of the navy and army stood up and shouted, "Swear allegiance to the principal!" Never slack off! ”

These high-ranking officers of the navy and land forces were very excited at this time, Lin Daxin became the governor of the four provinces, and their cronies also rose with the tide, and looking at the development trend of Lin Daxin's system, maybe one day they will replace the Qing Dynasty! Then these cronies who follow Lin Daxin have the merit of following the dragon!

Lin Daxin nodded with satisfaction and said, "When I return to Weihaiwei this time, I will slowly transfer the factory in Weihaiwei to the four northeastern provinces." In addition, the Northeast is vast and sparsely populated, so I will send people to recruit a large number of immigrants from Kannai to the Northeast. The task of the navy is to help transfer factory equipment and transport immigrants, and the various departments of the Dingbei Army in the northeast have to help resettle the immigrants, and I will hand over the specific resettlement of immigrants to my cousin Wang Yan in charge! ”

At this time, Jiang Hui of the Second Fleet walked into the conference room, walked quickly to Lin Daxin's side and whispered: "Marshal, our Second Fleet is back, and we have sunk 5 British transport ships, and the 7,000 Japanese army and the commander of the Northern Route Army, Shan County Youpeng, the culprit of the slaughter of Shengjing, has already fed Wang Ba!" ”

Lin Daxin's eyes lit up, but he always remembered the blood feud of the Japanese Northern Route Army slaughtering Shengjing, and learned that after the Japanese Northern Route Army signed an armistice treaty with Japan in the Qing Dynasty, it would take a British transport ship from Qinhuangdao back to Japan. Lin Daxin doesn't have the feelings that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. Immediately ordered the Second Fleet to intercept these executioners, avenge the death of the soldiers and civilians in Shengjing, and not let them return to Japan without a hitch.

Lin Daxin smiled happily and asked, "There is no evidence left, right?" ”

Jiang Hui said: "Don't worry. Not a single live mouth was left! And at that time, there was a storm on the Bohai Sea, and there would be no trace left after that! ”

Lin Daxin smiled, and then briefly explained to the senior officers of the Lushun Navy and Army in the conference room, and returned to Weihaiwei under the escort of the Second Fleet of the Navy of the Naval Academy.

Japan and Britain searched the Bohai Sea for a long time for the five transport ships that disappeared, but found no trace, and the two countries doubted that the fleet under Lin Daxin had destroyed the five transport ships. Japan and Britain sent people to question Lin Daxin, but Lin Daxin didn't admit it with an innocent face. The two countries did not find any evidence, so they had no choice but to give up.

Lin Daxin returned to Weihaiwei and first rushed to the Beiyang Navy Admiral's Mansion, Ding Ruchang laughed and said after seeing Lin Daxin: "Daxin, there is really your kid!" In the mouth of the Japanese, they snatched most of North Korea alive! Add a Yalu River Province to our Qing Dynasty! Hahaha! Those who have been able to expand their territory throughout the ages can have geometry! You're going to be one kid in the future! This is a good thing that will go down in history! ”

Lin Daxin rubbed the eyebrows of his right eye. Said with a smile: "I originally wanted to knock down the whole of North Korea!" It's a pity that the British and other 5 countries' envoys to the DPRK have made peace for me! Occupy most of North Korea! ”

Ding Ruchang stroked his beard and said, "Daxin, it's better this way!" If you occupy all of Korea, then the Korean royal family will also be liberated from the Japanese, and then Korea will still be the Korean royal family! You can't blatantly turn North Korea into a Yalu province in the north! ”

Lin Daxin nodded and said: "At the beginning, how did I think about the Korean royal family, I just wanted to wait until I occupied North Korea!" At this time, the envoys of the five countries in Korea suddenly came out to stir up the situation, and also built a northern army and the Japanese side accounted for half of Korea, which I paid attention to the issue of the Korean royal family, and then the Japanese minister to the DPRK, Keisuke Otori, strongly demanded that Seoul, where the Korean royal family is located, must belong to Japan, so I borrowed the slope to get off the donkey. Agreed to the Korean agreement now signed with the Japanese! However, although I added a Yalu River Province to our Daqing, the imperial court may not appreciate it, and now I don't know how many people in the imperial court are eager to break my body into thousands of pieces! ”

Ding Ruchang said meaningfully: "As long as you kid tightly grasp the military power!" Even the Queen Mother and the Emperor have no way to take you! And if it comes to the point where it is forced to do so. Don't hesitate, kid! ”

Lin Daxin looked at Ding Ruchang with surprised eyes, he didn't expect him to hint at his rebellion!

Ding Ruchang then said with a smile: "You kid, don't look at me with that kind of eyes!" You must know that the old man participated in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom when he was young! It is also the anti-Qing Dynasty! ”

Lin Daxin suddenly realized: "It turns out that Uncle Ding is an old rebel!" ”

Ding Ruchang asked Lin Daxin about the situation in Yalujiang Province again, and heard Lin Daxin say that the Koreans were happy to become the citizens of the Qing Dynasty, and Ding Ruchang happily told Lin Daxin that the newly obtained Yalujiang Province was settled!

Lin Daxin said: "Uncle Ding! Yalu province is better, with a population of 8 million. Fengtian, Jilin and Heilongjiang together have a population of only 3 million! If I want to develop the Northeast, I want to make the Northeast my base. There must be enough people, otherwise there will be no people to farm! That's why I decided to gather a large number of poor people from all provinces in Kannai and immigrate to the Northeast to open up wasteland and farm! ”

Ding Ruchang said approvingly: "There are a lot of poor people in the provinces of Guannei who are living in poverty and can't even solve the problem of food and clothing. ”

Lin Daxin said: "I am also going to gradually move Weihaiwei's factory and sailor school to the northeast!" ”

Ding Ruchang has no objection to this, these factories and the Sailor School were all funded and built by Lin Daxin himself, and now moving to the Northeast is Lin Daxin's own business.

After discussing the matter, Lin Daxin asked, "What about Xue Shan?" Why is it not in the Admiralty's Palace? ”

Ding Ruchang said with a smile: "My girl is now with that little girl named Du Juan every day, and early this morning, under the escort of the soldiers of your guard regiment, I went to your house to find Du Juan's little girl!" ”

For the safety of the people around him, Lin Daxin specially assigned a platoon of guard regiment soldiers to Ding Xueshan and Du Juan, and left a company of guard regiment soldiers in his newly purchased mansion to protect his grandmother and mother!

As for Lin Daxin's father Lin Yongsheng, there is no need for Lin Daxin to worry about it at all, Lin Yongsheng, as the pipe band of a Beiyang naval division, has many guards under him, but Lin Daxin still sent a batch of advanced Mauser revolvers to his father's guards.

I didn't see Ding Xueshan and Du Juan for nearly two months when I went to the Northeast this time, and I heard Ding Ruchang say that Ding Xueshan had gone to her house to find Du Juan, so she was ready to say goodbye to Ding Ruchang and go home to see the two beauties to relieve the pain of lovesickness.

Ding Ruchang suddenly said: "That's right! Daxin, now the big war with the Japanese is over! Two days ago, I discussed with your father and was ready to handle your marriage with Xueshan! In addition, your mother also asked Uncle Chen in your house to bring a message, ready to let that Du Juan girl marry you together, and the two daughters will marry into your Lin family at the same time, and they will be wives regardless of size after entering the door! The old man has already agreed! ”

Lin Daxin was pleasantly surprised when he heard it, his wife is amazing! I also studied how to marry Ding Xueshan and Du Juan at the same time! As a result, my wife has already helped me get it!

Lin Daxin immediately grinned and said, "It's all up to Uncle Ding and his parents!" Hehe! ”

Ding Ruchang pursed his lips and said, "It's cheap, you kid!" ”

Originally, Ding Ruchang did not agree with his baby daughter and the little girl named Du Juan to marry into the Lin family, but it was Ding Xueshan and Ding Ruchang who said that she and Du Juan were like sisters and were willing to follow the example of the Russian Empress Ying, and the two daughters would serve a husband together and marry Lin Daxin.

Ding Ruchang had no choice but to take his baby daughter, so he reluctantly agreed. (To be continued)
