Chapter 365
"Sounds pretty good, inform the North Korean side that if Japan is defeated, the northwest coastal area of Kyushu Island, including Kitakyushu, Fukuoka, Saga, and Nagasaki, can be managed by the North Korean side, of course, whether they can eat this piece of fat depends on their own ability." Ren Chao stood up and walked to the front of the map, pointed to the map on the wall and said.
"陛xià! This generation is the most industrially developed area in Kyushu, and the industrial area here is very important even for Japan. Yang Jichang couldn't help but speak.
"I know, but have you ever thought that if we take the hounds to hunt, and if we don't feed them something good, will he give us all his heart to chase the prey?" Ren Chao smiled and said, "What's more, my Huaxia Empire is vast and rich, is there still a lack of him as a place?" ”
"The Emperor Shengming!" Yang Jichang hurriedly said.
"That's it! Next, let's talk about Japan's military strength on the island of Kyushu. Ren Chao waved his hand and said.
The rear admiral pointed to the map and continued, "The military base of the Japanese Navy's Combined Fleet is located in the Sasebo Military Port, so the main forces of the Japanese Navy are all concentrated on Kyushu Island, but the main force of the Japanese Combined Fleet has been severely damaged by the North Sea Fleet of our Imperial Navy. In terms of the army, Japan currently has only eight divisions, and only one sixth division, that is, the Kumamoto Division, is stationed on Kyushu Island. That is, at present, Japan has only about one and a half divisions of regular troops on the island of Kyushu. There were less than 40,000 people, and even if Japan issued an emergency mobilization order, it would only be able to gather 50,000 or 60,000 regular troops at most. Of course, if Japan launches a general mobilization, it is estimated that it will be able to organize more than 200,000 militias. ”
"The militia? Now is not the period of cold weapons, and he must have guns and cannons to form combat effectiveness, so these 200,000 militia groups. It sounds scary, but it's not a cause for concern. Yang Jichang explained.
"Yes! The Koreans concentrated 100,000 troops and all 20,000 marines this time, and it should not be a problem to take the entire island of Kyushu. What is the specific situation of the Japanese army on Kyushu Island? Ren Chao nodded and said.
"Most of the Japanese forces are deployed along the southern coast of Kyushu Island to defend against our Ryukyu garrison. The North Korean side has already drawn up a landing plan on the coast from Kitakyushu to Fukuoka. Yang Jichang pointed to the map and said.
"Inform the North Korean side and let them carry out a landing operation as much as possible!" Ren Chao said with a stern face.
"Obey." Yang Jichang said respectfully.
On August 25, 1902, 20,000 Korean marines successfully landed on the Japanese island of Kyushu under the cover of the Korean naval fleet and the second detachment of the North Sea Fleet of the Chinese Empire. Subsequently, the 100,000 troops of the Korean Army urgently transported the island of Kyushu.
On September 1, North Korean troops captured Kitakyushu. Fukuoka was captured on the 2nd. Haruno Okubo, the supreme commander of the Japanese forces on the island of Kyushu, mobilized troops to fortify the Rukume line in preparation for a decisive battle with the Korean army. However, the biggest problem that plagued the Japanese army was the lack of troops. Although the Japanese issued a general mobilization and mobilized hundreds of thousands of militiamen, the combat effectiveness of these civilian troops who lacked guns and ammunition was very limited, and many of them could only use katanas, spears and other cold weapons to fight against the well-equipped Korean army. But the tenacity of the Japanese also caused great trouble for the Korean army, although it won successive battles. But in just a few days, the North Korean army paid more than 30,000 casualties.
Naturally, the Japanese would not abandon Kyushu Island lightly, but the sea route had been completely blocked by the North Sea Fleet and the Korean Fleet. Most of Japan's major coastal ports were also damaged by Yanzhòng. The Japanese collected a qiē ship and risked being sunk. Urgently send various military supplies and soldiers to Kyushu Island.
In the command hall of the Imperial Military Council, Ren Chao looked at the map on the wall, his brows furrowed slightly, "How is the battle on the front line now?" Hasn't the North Korean army taken Kurume yet? ”
"At the moment the fighting is in a stalemate. We underestimated the will of the Japanese to resist, or rather, overestimated the combat effectiveness of the Korean army. However, the North Korean side has issued an emergency mobilization order, preparing to send another 50,000 troops to support the front line. However, in terms of the current situation in North Korea, they can still draw up to 100,000 troops, but it will take a little time, and it is estimated that it will take at least two months to draw out these 100,000 troops, which is already the current limit of North Korea. Yang Jichang said with some concern.
"Yes! Didn't they draw 50,000 troops? After landing these 50,000 men from Fukuoka, they advanced directly to Sasebo, attacked Sasebo by land, and cooperated with the navy to destroy the Japanese combined fleet first. Ren Chao pointed to Sasebo on the map and said. Although the main force of the Japanese Combined Fleet was basically annihilated, after all, the Japanese still had a few main warships left, and the remaining fleet still contained part of the strength of the East China Sea Fleet.
"Obey! Then our fleet would be able to pull out all of its hands and head north. Yang Jichang said with a smile.
"Not bad! Now Kyushu Island is like a magnet, which can continue to attract Japanese forces and then be eaten by us bite by bite, unless the Japanese are willing to give up Kyushu Island. Ren Chao said with a smile.
"Not bad! In the past few days, we, the Japanese, have ventured to support the island of Kyushu, and thousands of ships of all kinds have been sunk by us. A large number of military supplies all sank to the bottom of the sea, and at least more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers were directly buried at the bottom of the sea. Yang Jichang said with a smile, "But there are still many Japanese ships that have broken through our blockade line, and it is estimated that at least 20,000 Japanese troops and a large number of military supplies have been transported to Kyushu Island." ”
"Didn't the East China Sea Fleet already send a detachment to support? In this way, our blockade line will be tighter, I said that this war against Japan is mainly for the purpose of military training, and the little devil is our whetstone, and I will use him to sharpen the saber of our Chinese Empire. Ren Chao said with a stern face.
"Then shouldn't our army also do it?" Yang Jichang asked with a smile.
"Yes! Looks like it's time for us to do it, and it's a bit unorthodox to do it again. I'm afraid Wang Jing, this kid can't wait, inform Wang Jing to do it! Ren Chao said with a smile.
"Command!" Yang Jichang responded respectfully.
On September 10, 1902, more than 20,000 marines of the Chinese Imperial Empire successfully landed on the western coast of Nagasaki under the cover of powerful artillery fire from the naval fleet. Subsequently, more than 40,000 people from two divisions of the Imperial Army successfully landed on Kyushu Island and successfully occupied Nagasaki on September 11.
