According to the treaty, Kume Island will officially become a leased land of Huaxia Province on June 1 of the first year of Huaxia.

After Ansan's triumph, they immediately got a flagpole from the ship.

The soldiers of the five battalions lined up in unison, and in the midst of singing the song of Huaxia, a brand-new star spike flag was raised.

The fleet of the shuttle patrol also fired a salute, and everyone understood that they had won the battle, not only did they win, but they won it beautifully.

It's just that there are very few loot, almost no loot, and the only gain is treaties and indemnities.

The rest of the people did not know the value of the treaty, but if they did, they would have found that this incident had led the Ryukyu Kingdom to embark on a semi-feudal and semi-colonial path.

Of course, treaties also need to be realized, and treaties without the ability to be liquidated are like a piece of waste paper.

As for how to realize the treaty of the Ryukyu Kingdom, Yan Zheng has also made a comprehensive plan.

The lease of Kume Island and the right to negotiate tariffs were the first steps.

The second step is to use advanced productivity and technology to destroy the pillar industries of the Ryukyus.

The third step was to use customs duties to bind the Ryukyu royal family to its interests, making it a comprador court.

By taking these three axes, it can basically be declared that the Ryukyu Kingdom has become a supplier of raw materials and a dumping ground for goods.

……

Two days later, the barge that returned on the day of landing arrived with a large amount of red bricks and cement substitutes.

The technical rolling is so unreasonable, the red bricks and cement are removed, and there are a lot of prefabricated hardwood boards.

More than twenty craftsmen were also laid down, who would be involved in the construction of the fortress and vertical fortress on Kume Island.

Under the command of Ansan, several battalion commanders personally went down, and many company platoon commanders also began to calculate angles in various places.

This group of people had learned about the construction of bastions, as well as vertical forts.

This fortress is located in the most central part of Kume Island, and its shape is somewhat similar to that of the Hokkien region.

Divided into three layers, the first is the musket firing hole, which borrows from the design of the bastion so that there are no dead ends.

The second layer is the rear-loading 75 guns, which are densely arranged in a circle, and the third layer is the three-pound guns.

The top layer is four ten-pound cannons, and the top layer is designed with a sloping round lid to prevent the attack of mortar cannons.

Such an out-of-time building can ensure that more than a hundred people with muskets can cope with the attack of several thousand.

Except for a dead siege and a desperate siege until the ammunition and food were exhausted, the attacking side had almost no recourse, especially on the island, where even the zigzag trenches were useless.

Five days later, after helping with the design and laying the foundation, Ansan ordered four battalions of soldiers to triumphantly.

Left behind is the 5th Battalion, in addition to more than 400 generations of animal soldiers, who will complete the follow-up work.

Wada Cikawa was lucky and got a qualification to be stationed with the army.

Although they couldn't understand Chinese, they could follow the army on such a trip, and almost everyone understood that they were fighting a battle.

Wada Jikawa was very shocked by the strength of these soldiers, and he decided in his heart that these soldiers could defeat all the armies of the daimyo.

Satsuma, Hirasa Castle.

Shimazu Tadamasa also learned the news of Tofan's dispatch to the Ryukyus through merchants who went to the Ryukyus to trade.

This news shocked him inexplicably, and he thought that Tofan was preparing to directly capture the Ryukyus.

However, when he came back to his senses, he felt that the matter had nothing to do with him, and even felt that Toban had captured the Ryukyus, which was convenient for them to trade directly with Tofan.

At present, the trade between the Shimazu clan and Toban is usually carried out by Toban ships to the ports of the Shimazu clan, and there is also a springboard through the Ryukyus.

If the Ryukyus belong to Toho, the benefits of trade may increase for the Shimazu clan.

As for the questioning of the Ming Sect, it was a matter of Dongfan, and it had nothing to do with his Shimazu clan.

At the end of last year, Shimazu Tadamasa once again raised an army of 3,000 to attack the liver Fu family, another time and space, this crusade should be five years later.

In this battle, Shinna Tadashi also supported the Liver Fu clan, but was ruthlessly cleaned up by Shimazu Tadamasa's iron cannon Okushi.

The traitor Xinna Zhongwu was also killed by breech guns on the battlefield.

Although he still did not destroy the liver Fu clan, Shimazu Tadamasa had already seen the power of arquebuses and breech guns.

He thought that with twice as many guns and ten more cannons in his hand, he would be able to sweep through the surrounding city lords and achieve a single reign.

Unfortunately, since the completion of the human trade, the supply of firearms has dropped to 20 arquebuses and one cannon every six months.

The supply of saltpeter also plummeted, and the reason given was that Dongfan was expanding its army and could not produce it.

This made Shimazu Tadamasa depressed, and his own craftsmen only imitated successful arquebuses, which could be made about twenty a month.

It's just that it's better to buy it, the imitation can't be far away, and the firing rate is not high.

After thinking about it, Shimazu Tadamasa found Tatsuhiko Akiyama.

"The eastern army is attacking the Ryukyus, you go and see, if you can, take a trip to the eastern part of the country!"

Tatsuhiko Akiyama nodded and said, "My lord, Dongfan has already sent a letter and note, and in the future, it should be commensurate with Dongqin!" ”

"It's all trifle!" Shimazu Tadamasa said unhappily.

"Definitely!" Tatsuhiko Akiyama insisted: "We have a request for them now, and any small matter must be taken seriously, otherwise the saltpeter trade will be cut off, and the firearms will be broken, how will the adults deal with themselves?" ”

Shimazu Tadamasa pondered for a moment and sighed, "You're right! If you are qualified to be seen this time, you must ...... Dongqin, Duoduo supply igniters, people...... Population matters, easy to discuss! ”

Tatsuhiko Akiyama glanced at him, and said, "Your Excellency, you might as well send a daughter to the King of Eastern Qin!" ”

"What? You mean marriage? Shimazu Tadamasa was stunned.

"Your Excellency!" Tatsuhiko Akiyama said seriously: "Do you care about your name, or do you care about your foundation?" If it weren't for the shogunate's staring, I would even want my lord to recognize Eastern Qin as the suzerain. This is like a tribute, which can get great benefits, and the Eastern Qin may also relax the firearms trade because of this! This...... This is beneficial to us! ”

Shimazu Tadashi thought about it and felt that this was very reasonable, since the Eastern Qin could send troops to the Ryukyus, it showed that it was also powerful, not to mention that with such a sharp firearm, even if he was recognized as the suzerain, it would not be a loss.

"But if the shogunate knows?"

"Let's just be more hidden!"

"Okay, you'll take care of that!"

In Meaux, in the Red Room, when Yan Zheng learned that the treaty had been signed, it was already June.

The news of the great victory ahead had already come back five days ago, and it had already immersed the Chinese people in joy.

The slogans everywhere have begun to be replaced, and many people who were originally worried have unconsciously puffed up their chests.

The sense of honor of the people was raised by this war, after all, many people participated in the pre-war mobilization.

It seems that everyone is involved in this war, the difference is the front and the rear.

Yan Zheng also posted an article announcing the victory of the war and thanking all the people for their dedication to the war.

At the end, he affectionately pointed out: This is the victory of the Chinese people and the victory of all equal people!

At this moment, looking at the detailed signing process in An Shan's reply, Yan Zheng's heart became refreshed.

This is the first colony! The first unequal treaty!

But it still needs to be done to turn it into a land of milk and honey.

He flipped through the folder and pulled out a drawing.

It reads: Design drawing of the first year type 01 steam engine.

For the sake of sugar in the Ryukyus, it was time to build a steam engine.
