After weighing the pros and cons, Hanabo Yoshishi felt that he needed to be cautious at this time, so he had to return to Suwon County for the time being. As soon as I returned, I learned that the Chinese and Japanese fleets did not know Weishenme, and they actually left the port of Incheon.

Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more bizarre, it was completely different from what he had planned, so he could only report the changes in the situation to the country first and wait for the strategic instructions.

At this time, the situation in North Korea presents a strange uncertainty. The Japanese side, in particular, was deterred by China's swift and forceful measures and did not dare to act rashly.

On August 5, 1882, upon learning of the new situation in Korea, Japan convened an emergency meeting. Hirobumi Ito spoke out at the meeting, asking everyone to "sober up." He solemnly warned: China's moves are fast and accurate, and one move after another makes it difficult for the Japanese side to deal with them. With such a quick reaction speed, it is absolutely impossible to make a temporary decision, a hasty decision, and it may even be a long-planned action. And the whole process, Japan was kept in the dark

Hirofumi Ito emphatically pointed out that there is a suspicious detail that, according to the spy report at Dagukou, just a few days before the Seoul riots, the Chinese fleet suddenly pulled anchor from Dagukou and set sail. At the same time as the riots in Seoul, the Chinese army was already feeling Incheon. Combined with the steps taken by China since then, step by step has been methodical. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that the riots in Seoul were all planned by China behind the scenes.

If this is the case, then the empire's intelligence system must undergo a deep rethink, and the empire must reassess China's strength and adjust its policies.

Hirobumi Ito said: "We think we all know, but in fact we don't know anything about China. If we act rashly, then the Empire will fight the wrong war at the wrong time, in the wrong place.

Ito's speech evoked strong repercussions from the participants. The reaction is split between supporters who see his speech as insightful and opponents who believe that if he hesitates like Ito, he will get to Zuihou and China will swallow it in one gulp. The two sides were at loggerheads, and Emperor Zuihou made the so-called "holy decision" and decided to "act prudently", but still insisted on not accepting China's interference in the affairs between Japan and North Korea > according to the

Subsequently, Hanafu's admonition insisted on holding separate talks with North Korea. North Korea, on the other hand, refused to meet and insisted that Japan negotiate with China. However, Japan refused to accept it, and for a time the three parties reached a stalemate.

On August 14, the Chinese fleet circled the Yellow Sea for more than ten days, and after turning a big circle, Zuihou returned to the port of Incheon. The Japanese fleet that followed behind was already exhausted by the toss, and Renli Jingfan felt that he was being played.

He angrily cursed the Chinese for having eaten enough and had nothing to do to wander around.

To make matters worse, the abominable "athlete's foot" has already flareed up on a large scale. According to the previous rules, such a time is generally only sporadic seizures, and when the mission is completed and the patient returns to the shore, the condition will slowly recede.

This time, however, the situation was very different, perhaps because the officers and men were generally mentally depressed and anxious, physically and mentally exhausted, and the illness not only occurred earlier, but also was more extensive and more serious. This beriberi is not a common "athlete's foot" skin disease, but a systemic disease, also known as "athlete's foot". The affected patients have edema and serous oozing from the ankles, knees, thighs and whole body, and in severe cases, they lose their ability to exercise, and even cause heart disease which is life-threatening.

At this time, more than a third of the officers and men in the fleet had lost their ability to act. In the Japanese Navy, which advocated will and patience, what could be called a "sick man" was inevitably a patient who had already suffered serious symptoms. Most of these patients no longer have a knees-throbbing reaction and are no longer able to stand at all.

The large number of sick people has made all positions on the warship short of manpower, and even some logistics and health personnel have to temporarily serve as gunners and other positions.

Renli Jingfan was extremely anxious about this, the fleet's combat effectiveness would undoubtedly be greatly reduced in such a state, and if the war started now, there would be no chance of winning at all. If it continues like this, it won't be long before a lot of people die without a fight.

Strangely, the Chinese on the opposite side, as well as the British warships in the port, do not seem to be sick, so why torture the Japanese? Renli Jingfan, this is called a depression.

He could only let the ships cover up their illness with all their might, so as not to let the Chinese side see through it. While reporting to the country and stating the difficult situation is really difficult to sustain.

The Japanese government was now in great distress, because the second fleet, which had assembled at the port of Shinagawa and was ready to escort the reinforcements, was also ill. It is conceivable that when these warships arrive in North Korea, the situation will not be much better.

Such an embarrassment forced the Japanese government to compromise. At this point, no matter how tough people are, they can no longer hold their own points. If the confrontation continues like this, I am afraid that the fleet will not be able to hold on to it in the first place and will have to return to sail.

Without the protection of the fleet, there is no point in sending more land forces to the past. When the time comes, there will be no bargaining chips in hand, and perhaps China will not talk about it.

There is no suspense anymore.

At this time, in the Beijing Imperial Palace, Ding Yuntong was looking at Yuan Shikai's telegram. He was already convinced in his heart that Japan would compromise. From the beginning, he knew that Japan would not be able to fight across the sea until beriberi was overcome, and that China could now boldly control Korea according to Jihua.

Thinking of this, Ding Yuntong couldn't help but feel a little proud of his plan, and slapped the beauty in his arms fiercely.

The beautiful palace maid Yuying sat naked in his arms, with firm breasts, slender waist and soft lines. Under Ding Yuntong's vigorous patting, the white buttocks swayed from side to side, and the flesh was dazzling. Especially the deep ditch in the middle, dark and secluded, unfathomable, and exudes a warm and humid atmosphere, which makes people can't help but reach inside and find out.

Ding Yuntong looked at such a beautiful scenery, and only felt that there was a hot air in the dantian, vigorously steaming, and it went straight to the heavenly spirit cover!

He knew that he was not yet at the age of wind and snow, so he gritted his teeth and pushed the white beauty as white as ivory carving into the ground. Yu Ying was caught off guard, exclaimed, fell to the ground, and looked back at the emperor in confusion, not knowing what was going on. The whole body is lying on its side, the jade body is horizontal, the curves are exquisite, and in the bright light, it looks like a white and innocent lamb.

Ding Yuntong only felt that his chest was burning like fire, and the burning heat was unbearable. He turned around and took off the whip on the wall, whipped it hard, and with a "snap" sound, it was whipped on the jade body of Yuying's white jade condensation.

Yu Ying exclaimed, her voice was full of pain and incomprehension, and a red mark was immediately left on her slippery back.

Then there was a "snap", and another whip came back, hitting the full and smooth chest fiercely, making the breast peak tremble like a deer, and the red buds trembled miserably, as if telling something.

Then another whip was whipped on the slender straight leg, making Yu Ying scream again.

The whip flew, whip after whip, and it had already hit Yuying and rolled around, but she still refused to stop, as if she had to give the girl's most secret crotch a whip. But Yuying protected it with both hands, but she refused to let go.

With a "snap", a pair of jade hands like verdant bamboo shoots were also whipped fiercely, and a blood mark was across it, which was very eye-catching. Yu Ying was in pain and shrunk her hands to her chest.

Finally, the whip of "snap" was whipped on the girl's lower body, and the severe pain was like an electric shock, stimulating the girl's nerves, and a scream with a crying voice "Ah"!

Along with it, a small snow-white column of water gushed out from the girl's lower body, and she was incontinent!

The screams pierced the sky of the palace like a sharp needle, and the yellow and dark moon in the sky was like a round-faced businessman, chasing the floating clouds, indifferent to everything in the world.

In the palace, Ding Yuntong gasped, feeling that the heat in his chest had finally subsided. He looked at the girl on the ground in front of him, she covered her face and sobbed slightly, her shoulders trembled, her body was shocking with blood, and there was a puddle of urine underneath.

Ding Yuntong sniffed the smell of girl's urine in the air, and then waved his hand: "You can step back." ＂

The girl covered her face and kowtowed on the ground, not even daring to straighten her waist, and went out while squatting, but there was a cold and resentful gaze shining between her fingers.

Ding Yuntong stroked the map of North Korea on the table, now is really not the time for a decisive battle.

According to his prediction, it will have to wait until the second half of next year. By that time, on the side of the Guards Army, in addition to these units that were openly on paper, there were also nearly five divisions of the Guards Army that were secretly organized; And the navy, the fleet is almost ready.

At the same time, the railway from the northeast to North Korea, and even from the Yalu River to Seoul, was completed. The integration within North Korea has also been completed, which can ensure that the Guards can receive local logistical support in the event of war.

With the right time, the right place, and the right people in our own hands, we can confidently and boldly fight a decisive battle with Japan, deal a fatal blow to Japan, and lay the foundation for the overall situation in East Asia for decades or even centuries to come.

As for whether Japan will remain calm and restrained at that time, Ding Yuntong is not worried about this at all.

Over the past few years, Japan has expanded its armaments and wars, its military budget has grown wildly, and its national economy has been seriously deformed.

Moreover, at that time, the beriberi of the Japanese Navy must have been greatly alleviated, and there was really no reason to stop the frenzy of going to war.

Perhaps, there will be some calm politicians, such as Ito Hirobumi and others, who will try their best to stop it, and want to wait for more opportunities for aggression.

But Ding Yuntong still has a big killing weapon in his hand, as long as this big killing weapon is used, Japan will go crazy, climb up the Korean Peninsula, and no one can stop it, including the emperor!
