The constant assassinations by Japanese government troops are not counting.In addition, the army re-entered Kyushu Island and adopted an offensive posture against the shogunate army.The shogunate attacked ahead of schedule, playing into the hands of Hirobumi Ito.President Meng didn't understand it a little.,I don't know what Saigo Takamori is going to do.,But President Meng is generally just watching quietly from the side.。
He likes that everyone doesn't exist when the Chinese army doesn't exist, and picking up a cake as big as Nagasaki for nothing tastes cool enough."
Saigo Takamori must want to take Shimonoseki down," Princess Katrina Kafu asked President Moe.President Meng nodded, "I think so, the Shimonoseki battlefield is the main battlefield for both of them, however, he is a little anxious, he has few people, originally Saigo Takamori should have taken a defensive position, but he is the main attacker every time." ”"Isn't this called the spirit of bushido," Princess Katrina Kaaf smiled, covering her mouth.President Meng smiled: "Well, it should be, they are all quite brave, and if they can't win, they will cut their stomachs." ”The strength of the Japanese government army is limited, and it is difficult to fight on two fronts, and Ito Hirobumi means that it will definitely not work to defeat the shogunate army on Saigo Takamori's side first, and then return to the division to deal with the Chinese army in Nagasaki.Because Ito Hirobumi and the Japanese cabinet both believe that if they can't fight, they will definitely fight a protracted war for one or two years, or even more than three years, and when the time comes, it will definitely consume the manpower and material resources of the whole country, and Saigo Takamori must be defeated first.Ito Hirobumi knew that the difference in strength between the Japanese government army and the shogunate army was not very far, and in order to avoid useless losses and sacrifices, it had always been a coercive posture, waiting for the shogunate army to lose its breath and make the first move.In fact, this is just a game of tactics, which not only reduces their own losses, but also arrogants the military morale of the shogunate.Saigo Takamori naturally understands that he is not unable to hold his breath, but that he must fight, and Saigo Takamori wants to rely on his own strength to repel the government army in order to get rid of his dependence on the Chinese army and the country.In fact, Saigo Takamori really didn't ask President Meng for anything, it was President Meng who came with the Chinese army himself, but with the Chinese army in Nagasaki, people will naturally treat the Chinese army and the shogunate army together.Although the pass on Kyushu Island was lost, as long as the Japanese government army was defeated, the Japanese government's army that had already landed on the island could not hold it alone, and the war could naturally be ended.How can we defeat the Japanese government army Saigo Takamori looked at the map and fell into deep thought, the Japanese government army has a slight advantage in numbers, the key is to get a large number of old weapons that the Americans have eliminated since the Civil War, and they are also superior in terms of equipment.The most important thing is that the fleets of the British, French and Americans in Japanese waters can fight with the Japanese government forces at any time, as long as the Japanese government is willing to pay for it.Saigo Takashi shouted: "Fire" boom boom.More than a month after the ceasefire, the head-to-head confrontation between the shogunate army and the Japanese government army resumed, and it was a war of different faiths that already had distinct political overtones.Although President Moe is actually on the same line as the Japanese emperor politically, the Chinese army is behind the scenes to cheer for Saigo Takamori's army.Because only if Saigo Takamori wins, Japan will not be able to be reunified and will not be able to continue to develop.The cannons on both sides spewed fire and smoke at the same time.There were targets on both sides, and with the deafening sound of artillery, soldiers on both sides began to shoot at each other.The shogunate also had guns, but they were all old-fashioned birds.The shogunate soldiers shouted and began to charge, and the Japanese government troops under the guidance of the Americans aimed and fired like targets, and the shogunate soldiers fell one after another, adding to the confusion.The artillery shells of the shogunate army were limited, and they stopped after less than ten minutes, and the Japanese government forces had money on their side and continued to fire artillery.Loud noises, thick smoke, fire, and the shouts of the warriors killed on both sides in the dark.The shogunate army was terrified by the artillery fire of the Japanese government army, and the army of the Choshu Domain, which Saigo Takamori was constantly urging, launched an attack.The melee lasted for a whole day, and the shogunate's army was finally unable to withstand the Japanese government army, which was superior in numbers and weapons, and many people began to flee for their lives, and the army was in great confusion and quickly collapsed.Saigo Takamori could only order a temporary retreat in order to gather troops.Although they all have the shadow of a modern army, the Japanese army and the Chinese army are completely different in terms of training, and the Chinese army is now completely modernized.Although President Moe is in Nagasaki, two or three hundred miles away from the battlefield, he can know the details of the battle at the first time.President Meng heard that the shogunate army couldn't be defeated, so he couldn't make a sound.He knew that the shogunate's strength was weak, but he didn't expect it to be so weak, "This Saigo Takamori can really calm down, and he doesn't ask us for help." ”is also the "new army", the shogunate's "new army", which is not as good as the elite combat effectiveness of the Huai army of the Qing Dynasty in the original time and space."
It looks like he's not going to rely on us anymore, and he doesn't know what to do now."
Princess Katrina Kaaf answered.President Meng smiled slightly: "We are not in a hurry, he loves to come or not, he doesn't look for us, better, the Chinese army of the province easily intervened directly." ”"But if we don't intervene, it is estimated that Saigo Takamori will be defeated and killed in less than half a month," Princess Katrina Kafu asked puzzled.President Meng nodded, this is a big problem, this Saigo Takamori is not on the road, it is indeed not easy to support a traitor force in Japan.President Moe clearly realized that the shabby regime of the shogunate was really rotten to the bones."
Let's take one step at a time, let's try not to use troops directly against Japan easily, if they don't go on the road, we can't do anything."
The president sighed secretly, "It doesn't feel good to stand in the opposite direction of history." ”Princess Katrina Kafu didn't understand what President Moe meant, but in fact, President Moe herself was a little confused.The idealistic approach is to support a Japanese traitor force to fight against the government army, and then sell weapons for profit.But the people of the island country are obviously not as easy to manipulate as the North Koreans, uh, it seems that the North Koreans are not very easy to manipulate, and Li should not want to gain autonomy and become a vassal of China.The Americans' three broken warships, President Meng didn't pay attention to it at all, and he didn't want to get directly into the Japanese civil war, President Meng could only make an example of the Chinese navy, and he did not have the ability to seize the sea control around Nagasaki alone.China's warships should not be too deep in danger; More importantly, ironclad ships are the heavy weapons of the decisive battle of the ocean fleet, and they are not suitable for fighting in the shallow waters of the Seto Inland Sea, which has narrow waterways, many islands, and many reefs.The warships of the Chinese Navy have not been updated for several years, and they were all second-rate warships of the British, and now they are becoming more and more backward.But this has not affected the fact that in recent years, Huaguo has cultivated an unmatched navy.Japan in the original time and space has leapt from an authentic agricultural society to a modern industrial country.It's outrageously short in time.President Moe once carefully studied the historical facts of the Meiji era at the end of the Edo period, and the Japanese drove the plug-in all the way, almost without a single detour.President Moe could not find the right words to describe this situation, and together they created one of the greatest miracles in the history of world capitalism, and Ito Hirobumi is the most outstanding representative of them.The combined fleet of the Japanese government army, with 20 ships and 5,000 troops, went all out for three full days, and the war was not easy.Located at the western tip of Japan, just 800 kilometers away from Shanghai, Nagasaki has been a bridge between China and Japan since ancient times.Nagasaki was one of the few ports open to the outside world during Japan's lockdown era, and it was a transportation hub through which the United Kingdom, Portugal, and the Netherlands all had close contacts with Japan.President Meng looked at Nagasaki's terrain sand table and said with a smile: "Forget it, I can't think of it, I don't want to, go play." ”Princess Katrina Kafu smiled, after President Meng became the emperor, it has indeed changed a lot, if it was placed in the past, when President Meng couldn't think of anything, he would lose his temper, and now, it seems that the president has no temper t1706231537:
