Chapter 498: It's still down! So how do you meet the enemy?
It is said that in August, the Japanese army read the Yalu River and rushed directly into the northeast, and as far as this matter is concerned, the Meiji Emperor in Japan, he himself did not know.
It should be said that, procedurally speaking, Emperor Meiji really did not know about this, at least he did not give this order, which is true.
So, who is so bold?
There are mainly two people, one of these two people is named Nogi Noshinori and the other is Kodama Gentaro!
Nogi Noshinori? Gentaro Kodama?
If Li Mengyang hears these two names, then he must be very familiar with it, he used to study history.
Yes, it's really very familiar, but there's something in it, that is, what kind of official positions are these two people now?
Nogi Noshinori is older, and he's now the captain of the Great Zuo Wing!
This official ...... It's not big!
It's really not big, it's not a general, generally speaking, such a military action, if it's another country, at least you have to be a general to do it, because this kind of military action is too big, how can ordinary people take such a responsibility?
But however, after Li Mengyang saw these two people and their official positions, he felt that it was too normal!
Lower gram up!
As long as you know some of the history of Japan's invasion of China, as well as Japan's militaristic history, then you must have seen this word, it is too common, because in the history of the whole Japan that Li Mengyang has read, it can be said that since it is militarism, then Japan's side is all the way, down and down.
As far as the basic major military operations are concerned, all of them on the Japanese side are on the lower side, and there is no exception, and now, this military action is completely outside the historical scope of Li Mengyang's research. It's also a lower gram on it.
Is it ahead of schedule?
Li Mengyang knew very well in his heart that this was really normal, because he knew too much about the essence of this 'lower gram'.
What's next? Why does the Japanese army always go down?
Let's just talk about this matter, many people are in the book to the emperor, suggesting that they should attack this Great Qing Kingdom. I'm going to kill you while you're sick.
But but, isn't that also someone coming out to say that it's not good, Ito Hirobumi and Katsu Haizhou came out to shout, and they still shouted loudly.
And ah, this Ito Hirobumi is the current Prime Minister of Japan, and he has died several times before, after Naito, what Kido Takayo, what Okubo Ritsu. They were all killed, all of them were stabbed, and this Ito Hirofumi is relatively hard, and in addition, it seems that the killer doesn't want to trouble him, anyway, this guy has been doing it for a long time.
In fact, this is the game of political forces behind it, and that Sheng Haizhou is not an unknown person. People are also quite knowledgeable.
In other words, the opposition is not low. The power is not small.
So what exactly did the emperor instruct?
"Autumn seems to have arrived, and the autumn harvest season is the best......
This one...... That's right, that's what the emperor said, if people are singing, then you can't hear what he says, and you're not a beast.
But what does that mean? No one can understand?
Apparently. There are still beasts.
Let's talk about Nogi Noshinori and Kodama Gentaro, although these two are from the Nagasu Domain, they are considered to be vassals, but they are the emperor's pro-army!
In the past two years, because of the internal political struggle in Japan, the Nagasu Domain and the Satsuma Domain fought each other. Saigo Takamori rebelled, and Nanogi Noshinori led the army to suppress it, but he was defeated and defeated, and this guy didn't perform well, so he had to cut his stomach!
But...... Let's put it this way, many people in Japan say seppuku, but there are few who really cut it, especially the high position of the official university, there are really not many, the most famous in history is Gen Yoshijing, it is said that this guy cut the abdomen directly to the ribs of the chest, the ribs were several, and the three knives cut themselves...... But after him, there wasn't much.
Well, it should be said that the emperor pardoned Nogi Noshinori's seppuku, so he, Nogi Noshinori has to be grateful to Emperor Meiji, so now, the emperor thinks that the autumn harvest season is good, so where is the autumn harvest good?
So, cross the Yalu River!
So, Nogi Noshinori and Gentaro Kodama handle this matter, so what else can the generals above them do?
From now, the emperor has actually made it clear...... That's right, in fact, most of the Japanese soldiers understood what the emperor said, the so-called people are like clusters and groups, and animals listen to the cranes.
In fact, this is the so-called lower gram, as far as Li Mengyang knows, these lower grams of Japanese militarism are basically such a process, and it can be said that it is a standard.
It is nothing more than a fig leaf, and for this reason, it is to make the common people of Japan feel that his majesty the emperor is merciful, and his own sergeants are heroic. Moreover, there is also the advantage of shirking responsibility, yes, this decision was not made by the emperor.
I slipped a shoulder, and art slipped out here in Japan.
But in this matter, Japan's current main general, that is, the Yama Prefecture Youtomo who came with him, this guy also has a good relationship with Nogi Noshinori, and everyone is from the Changzhou Domain.
The Japanese Army, that is, the Chosu Domain, and the Japanese Navy, which is the Satsuma Domain, is particularly good. And this time, only the army came, but the Japanese navy did not move.
So what about it......
Although this is the case, however, the front-line military situation at this time is already very urgent!
How to drop it?
After Nogi Noshidian crossed the Yalu River with Youpeng in Shanxian County, they developed rapidly all the way, and at this time they had already hit Jinzhou!
At this time, just over a month has passed since the crossing of the river. In just one month, there is such a speed of development, which is really very fast!
Why so fast?
Now it's also clear, that is, the defense over there is basically in a state of slack, the central government is gone, the Manchus have surrendered to the New Tang Dynasty, and the New Tang Dynasty has not developed to that side now, so it is really a power vacuum.
On the other hand, it is the local landlord's old wealth......
Eat pot pulp to welcome the king!
Right. This is really the case, and it is true that such a thing happened in the local area, and the local landlord Lao Cai took out his own food to reward these Japanese soldiers.
There are two main reasons for this.
The first is that the original people of the Qing Dynasty are indeed still in a state of ignorance. What is true is that the wisdom of the people has not been opened. Let's put it this way, Li Mengyang is very aware of this, just for the revolutions he has carried out in the United States, then he will be tired and half dead just by engaging in his own Chinese side, and this Great Qing Dynasty has not had any ideological and cultural revolutions until now.
The second one, that's your Li Mengyang's problem, aren't you kid engaged in that kind of agrarian revolution?
Yes. Then these landlords and old fortunes are not fools, they have families and land, and they are very afraid of your revolution!
Now that there is a very powerful guy coming, that is, the Japanese, why don't we welcome the king?
In the eyes of these landlords and old wealthy, there is no difference between paying taxes to the Manchus and paying taxes to the Japanese. It's all the same!
So, are they all really the same?
This is not a good word for the Manchus. But it's only compared to Little Japan......
Just these little Japan, this way of burning, killing and looting, is really ruthless!
Those landlords and old fortunes were killed...... Well, this objectively made the agrarian revolution a little less resistant.
Little Japan is so virtuous, but on the one hand, they have not encountered any decent resistance at all. On the other hand, there are fat sheep sent along the way, so can their development speed be slow?
So, what should we do with these little Japan now?!
"I, Li Mengyang, Emperor of the Pacific Rim Empire, now call on people from all walks of life in China. We are united! Let's fight Japanese militarism to the end! Resolutely defend our Chinese territory! ……”
Right! Li Mengyang is not Jiang Guangtou, he will not make that kind of declaration of non-resistance, it is simply a shame!
As the emperor of the Pacific Rim Empire, Li Mengyang sent a telegram to the whole country, calling on everyone to rise up against the Japanese invaders.
As soon as the whole country is electrified, then the whole country responds to you Li Mengyang?
Li Mengyang is not so naïve, so, in the Taihe Hall of the Forbidden City, let's have another meeting!
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are all together again, but compared to before, there are now a lot fewer princes, and those powerful princes have not all rebelled before, and then they have been suppressed. Later, some officials of the former Qing Dynasty rebelled, and as a result, they were also suppressed, so there were a lot fewer people.
Just before, there was even the official who came up with a desperate move with Li Mengyang, which was to fight with Li Mengyang with his bare hands in this Taihe Palace, this fight......
Just their group of beasts, can they still be Li Mengyang's opponents?
easily subdued, so they knew that this Li Mengyang was both civil and military.
So now...... No one spoke, dared or not, and did not speak.
Li Mengyang said.
"Fog Wind, you can take your First Division of the Far East New Formation to the north!"
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
That's the old general of the fog wind.,It's normal.,The fog wind didn't say it.,Isn't it just going to do little Japan?
Then you don't want to go?!
But however, the people in the hands of the fog wind are 10,000 people, a division, but the opponent's small Japan, it is said that there are at least 80,000 people, because the Japanese soldiers who were in Korea before, and those who rushed over from Japan after seeing the benefits, should be more than this number, so ......
"Xiao Shanzi, you take your Chinese lightning group, go with you!"
Li Mengyang ordered Xiao Shanzi's general again, this Chinese lightning is the vanguard force that insisted on in Vicksburg at the beginning, and now it wants to be an all-Chinese class, so he made up a Chinese lightning regiment, of course, it was Xiao Shanzi to lead, but it was only ......
With a dry tom, Xiao Shanzi immediately came out and knelt on the ground, shouting.
"Daddy! It's not that I don't want to go to war! It's me leaving, what can you do with that dad?! ”
Yes, if Xiaoshanzi is also gone, then Li Mengyang may only have less than 2,000 people around him! (To be continued......)
