When I met the Beiyang Navy, I was ignored by the other party?

This situation made the Japanese, who were originally unbelievable about Gentaro Ota's report and even felt that it was a huge conspiracy, couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation and joy. **《》》* Or, does the Chinese really want to give up North Korea? Then use the Japanese invading army as an excuse to protect Yuan Shikai in the Northeast?

"If this is true, then the Qing Dynasty may have earth-shaking changes in the near future." Thinking of some possibility, Katsura couldn't help but scream. Beiyang Navy, the New Northeast Army... There may even be Li Hongzhang, who is still oppressing Hirobuki Ito in Tianjin. If these people are united to deceive the Qing court in Beijing, then what do they want to do? Just want to preserve Yuan Shikai's status in the Northeast? But if such a purpose is really, wouldn't it be enough to force yourself to stand up in the name of Li Hongzhang, why is it so complicated?

"If this is true, then..." Kawakami Kawakami's eyes were dull and he sat down on the floor in depressedly. After a while, he covered his face and sobbed in a low voice.

"It's early, it's early!" Dashanyan beat the floor hatefully, regretting it.

"Why, why are the opportunities always given to the Qing Dynasty? Amaterasu is here, what are you doing? Why don't you bless our Yamato nation?" Yuto Yama County looked up at the ceiling, tears flowing.

All militaristic generals were extremely regretful. They realized that in order to preserve Yuan Shikai's position in the Northeast, there were actually people in the Qing Dynasty who had been struggling with so many forces to act together, which showed that there was a huge force in the Qing Dynasty that was deviating from the Qing Dynasty. These people were doing their own things behind the Qing Dynasty and cultivating their own power. This force now has at least the support of the Beiyang Navy and the New Northeast Army, including Li Hongzhang himself. Even this is very likely that Li Hongzhang himself was manipulating everything... The pillar that maintained the Qing Empire's unsuccessful end could finally make a comeback. He wanted to tear open the weak veil of the Beijing court and directly control the country. What's more, there might be the shadow of Guo Jinzhang here... The two major forces inside and outside complement each other, and it can be said that they were colluding to take action secretly to seize China's supreme power.

It's too early, it's really too early... Just like Dashanyan's annoyance, they took action too early. If they could endure it for a while and endure it until the moment the force finally started to start, it would definitely not fall to where it is today. And with the Qing court's usual neglect of Japan, they might still be able to achieve unimaginable benefits.

...

"Although it may be that the victory of the empire has led to the ambitions of some people, we still cannot relax our vigilance. Moreover, this phenomenon cannot be ruled out as the bait thrown by the Chinese people who want to lure us into a trap." After a brief annoyance, Yuto Yama County wiped his face and cheered up again, "So, I decided to send the navy to continue to transport supplies to North Korea in small batches. Do you have any opinions?"

"I think I can ask Yamamoto Honbukie. Maybe he may have other solutions." Kawakami Kawakami looked at the ground in front of him with a cold look. "After all, he has always been trying to support Otaku, and our troops in North Korea may not be able to hold on for long. I'm worried that too small batches of supplies will not play a big role."

"If possible, the soldiers must be transported and Oshino-jun must be transported back to receive treatment." Oyama Iwaya said.

"None of these are the most important." Kanetaro looked worried, "What I worry most is the weather. Although the coldest season is not yet reached, if this situation continues, if Oshino-kun and the others lack clothes to keep warm, it will probably be difficult to persist."

"Bang!" Yama Prefecture Aritomoto punched the small table in front of him. "Then let Yamamoto Hokage organize more ships... But these ships cannot be all concentrated on the side of the Tsushima Strait, and can only use part of them to attract the attention of the Beiyang Navy. The rest will go to the Sea of ​​Japan!"

"Sea of ​​Japan? Teacher, there is a great white fleet patrol there!" Kane Taro said in a terrifying manner. It is only a matter of whether the Beiyang navy will let go of their transport fleet. However, if there is a problem in the Qing Dynasty, it will never involve the Americans. **《》》* Therefore, according to Guo Jinzhang's order, the Great White fleet on the coast of Japan will be blocked directly or forcefully. In that case, they may suffer greater losses.

"First use a small batch of transport fleets to attract the Beiyang Navy in Tsuma Strait, and then let Yamamoto use warships to attract the attention of the Dabai Fleet. The real transport fleet is detouring another route... We cannot put all our hopes on the Chinese. These people don't even care about their own countries and must not believe them."

************************************************************

"The island country is an island country, narrow and petty."

Tianjin, when he learned that the Japanese suddenly sent out some old and broken warships that had been hiding in the port, but were sunk three ships by the Dabai Fleet in the Sea of ​​Japan and captured two ships, Guo Jinzhang couldn't help but shake his head. He had never underestimated Japan, and whether it was Ito Hiromoto, Yama Prefecture, or the later generations of Katsura Kawakami, Katsuro Otaro, Yamamoto Kyotoe and others, they were all talents he admired very much. It can be precisely said that if it was not for the advantage of the time traveler, Guo would give it to others.

It is not worthy of carrying shoes. This is not self-deprecating. You should know that in the original time and space, the reason why Japan was able to become the number one power in East Asia was the efforts of these people. That is just an island country! Throughout history, there are only two examples of Britain and Japan that have become the great powers of island countries. It took Britain more than two hundred years to rise to become the "Empire of Sunless Setting". What about Japan? Although it is far from reaching the height of Britain, it has only been 40 or 50 years since the Meiji Restoration to defeating Russia and dominating East Asia.

Of course, Japan's rise is accompanied by too much blood and violence. But in the world, which great power is not covered with blood in his hands? But when Japan's rise, these originally brutal and violent guys have become rich people. Naturally, they have to pretend to be a noble person. The reason why he hated Japan was because Japan regarded China as its stepping stone, which made China shed too much blood. And repeatedly interrupted the process of China's rise. Blocking people's wealth is like killing parents, blocking the development of our country, and preventing tens of millions of people from rising up. Of course, this hatred is even more unimaginable.

But the more hatred he is, Guo Jinzhang feels that he should face the other party’s strengths more.

When Hirobu Ito was invited to visit Tangzhou, he wanted to keep this person in Seattle. Why? This person is talented. Although he is a little arrogant, no one can deny that this person is one of the top talents in the world today. Compared with Hirobu Ito, what Guo Jinzhang wants most is Yama Prefecture Youto. This person himself is not talented. As a soldier, he has no credit for military power. It is entirely because the heroes in the Japanese army either die or retreat, and this guy is lucky.

But the people in power after Japan, especially those who decided Japan's fate in the future, were almost all his disciples. The mistake of this person was that he made the wrong route and was not calm enough. After gaining huge benefits from gambling, he forgot the harm of gambling and passed on his wrong route. But it is undeniable that this person has excellent vision and clever skills, and in these two aspects, he is better than Hirofumi Ito.

Unfortunately, these are all enemies. Moreover, their eyes are not long-term and broad enough, and they lack a kind of mind that only a big country has. This is their fault, even the entire Japan!

"If I want to deal with you, I still have to worry about it? I just need to block each route. You have to wait to die slowly. Do I still have to waste ammunition?"

"I'm worried that there will be changes in the Japanese army in North Korea for a long time." Li Hongzhang said with a little concern.

"As long as there is no navy, they will not be able to become a climate." Guo Jinzhang smiled, "Although the Dabai Fleet will evacuate soon, the Tangzhou Fleet will definitely be stationed in Hokkaido. In addition, within two years, the Beiyang Navy will add five new warships, so we are not afraid of them making monsters."

"You have a good attitude." Li Hongzhang smiled casually, "Using North Korea to lure Japan, so that they are willing to give up Hokkaido and the Kuril Islands. Unfortunately, Yama Prefecture Atsuto and Ito Hirofumi are not fools, and they may not be willing to be fooled by you!"

"The difference between big people and small people is not their own strength. It is because big people can mobilize too much manpower and material resources and have enough information. But what about small people? No matter how smart or capable he is, how can he deal with so many people and so much power?" Guo Jinzhang smiled.

"Isn't it just that North Korea has become the wound that has been bleeding in Japan? What are you showing off? Who can't see such a sub-scheming?" Li Hongzhang said disdainfully.

"The key is that they may not be able to bear it." Guo Jinzhang smiled and said, "Don't forget that since Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the Japanese have been full of ambitions for the mainland. Although they were defeated this time, the main failure was the navy. Except for the Otaku Gentaro tribe, most of their army were preserved intact and had full combat power. In this case, they would definitely have hope. Especially since we gave them such a large piece of land in North Korea... it was equivalent to giving them the opportunity to cross the ocean directly and launch a decisive battle with the Qing Dynasty with the army. How could they give up such a good opportunity?"

"I will never die until the Yellow River, and I will never cry until I see the coffin. It's a pity that the Korean monarch and ministers... are all loyal vassals to me, the Qing Dynasty." Li Hongzhang sighed.

"The vassal of the fart." Guo Jinzhang curled his lips, "I am cowardly and incompetent but overestimated my ability. If I had swallowed it directly, I would have avoided being annoying."

"There are 40 million people in North Korea. If Japan can do it, it will probably be difficult to resist with Yuan Shikai's new Northeast Army alone. Besides, we still have enemies to move and need to be prevented." Li Hongzhang said worriedly. He was too lazy to talk to Guo Jinzhang about the issue of vassal states. They had exchanged views on this issue many times before. But Guo Jinzhang always believed that only those who had swallowed their stomachs were truly effective. As for surrender, vassal states, etc., they were all over the world and would float away whenever there was something wrong. Especially the neighboring countries of the Qing Dynasty, such as North Korea, Annan, Myanmar, etc., should have been annexed long ago, rather than letting them wander outside the central government. Although he also agreed with some of the opinions, there were too many ways here, so how could it be swallowed by saying "annexation"?

"That's why I mentioned another one to Hirobuki Ito. Anyway, they are idle and they are just use it as waste." Guo Jinzhang smiled proudly.

"Don't be proud!" Li Hongzhang snorted.

"I'm lost? Tsk tsk, it's really a bit, hahaha..."

...

"Tamura Yiyuzuo, Ogawa again, Kawamura Keiyaki, Teraunuchi Masato, Kato Tosaburo, Yamanashi Halfaki, Tojo Hideyo, Saito Mi, Okada Keisuke, Suzuki Kantaro, Akiyama is so ancient, Akiyama Matsuo... Guo Jinzhang. Li Hongzhang, you are so cruel!"

In a room in Chunfan Building, looking at the list sent by Guo Jinzhang and Li Hongzhang, Hirobu Ito's eyes were almost broken. The people on this list were all Japanese officers who requested to be "seconded" to the Chinese team, including the Navy and Army. The highest-level ones have even become Lieutenant General Division commanders. However, these are all elites of the Japanese Navy and Army.

Tamura Yiyuzuo, a well-known strategist in the Japanese Army, made careful and rigorous plans. Kawakami Kamikawa compared him to Takeda Shingen, the king of the Kafari Kingdom in the Warring States Period, so he was also called "Imashiro Shingen".

Ogawa is again, the real author of "The Qing Dynasty's Expedition and Investiture". An advocate of the Japanese Army's sharpening knife and waiting for war, a strategist with great influence in the Japanese Army, was compared by Kawakami to Kenshin Uesugi during the Warring States Period, also known as "Kenshin Imam".

Kawamura Keiya, the lieutenant general of the Tokyo First Division, was on the front line every time he fought and was deeply loved by the soldiers in the army.

Masato Tetsuyuki, currently the principal of the Army Non-commissioned Officer School.

Tomosaburo Kato, a naval artillery expert.

Tojo Hideyo, the first place in the first phase of the Army University, and Tamura Yi, Zuo and Ogawa were the second time. He is currently the staff officer of the General Staff Headquarters and Kawakami's right-hand assistant.

...

Akiyama Yoko, the first famous cavalry general of the Japanese Army. He studied cavalry tactics in France. After returning to Japan, he served as the principal of the horse school and cavalry supervisor, and contributed to the establishment of the "Cattle Department". When the Army University answered students what cavalry was, he used his fists to break the glass of the classroom on the spot, then raised his bloody fists and told the students that this was cavalry. Cavalry is speed, strength, and casualties! In the Korean War, it was Akiyama Yoko who used cavalry to block the reinforcements of the Qing Dynasty, and almost caused Ye Zhichao and Nie Shicheng to die in Pyongyang. Similarly, Akiyama Yoko was also a cavalry who killed the Qing army general Ma Yukun in the battle of breaking through the Qing Dynasty. In the case of heavy losses in the army Taro's army and the generals were also incompetent, Akiyama Yoko was already one of the most important generals under his command.

Akiyama Shinji, a naval staff officer. Akiyama Hokki's younger brother has always been the most eager to become a monk. He joined the navy because of his brother Akiyama Hokki's opinion. He was once sent to Germany to study the navy, but later he secretly ran to the United States to learn naval theory from Ma Han, the author of the theory of sea power. However, he was kicked out of the school for unknown reasons. Later, he found out that it was Tangzhou that did not want Ma Han to teach yellow students other than Chinese. But even though he did not learn much from Ma Han, Ma Han was still the best staff officer in the navy.

"So many elites, Guo Jinzhang, Li Hongzhang, are you planning to capture all the navy and army of our Great Japanese Empire in one place?"

From the head of the lieutenant general division, to the principal of the non-commissioned officer school, from the right-hand assistant of the chief of the army, to the genius staff of the navy, almost no one on the list was left behind. However, what these people exchanged was a reluctance between Li and Guo in the treaty: giving up interference in Japan's tax affairs!

"Do you agree? Do you want to negotiate and bargain?"

Hirobu Ito felt exhausted everywhere and sore everywhere. Although the negotiations lasted less than a month, he felt that more than ten years had passed. Guo Jinzhang and Li Hongzhang were moving forward one after another, trying to cut off Japan's rise from the root. He tried his best but it was almost impossible to play any role. Finally, seeing the domestic attitude was firm, they finally let go, but then came up with new conditions... According to the previous treaty, Japan would not be able to collect enough taxes from the people, so Japan's military power would shrink again and again, and it would be difficult to compete with the Qing and Tangzhou. But now, those two guys did not care about taxes, but they directly wanted their people.

...

"Although the elite can be trained again, this one is better than directly reducing taxes, but if implemented, the Japanese army may only be able to barely maintain it in the next decade."

“That’s exactly what we hope for.”

The negotiations began again. Hirobuki Ito carefully asked Guo Jinzhang, hoping to reduce the number of people on the list. But Guo Jinzhang smashed his hopes into pieces with just one sentence.

"Is there no room for negotiation? You know, many of these people have fought with your team. If they are seconded to your country, can you guarantee their safety?" Young and tidy, then look for the old one. Hirobuki Ito asked Li Hongzhang again.

"This is even harder to guarantee." Li Hongzhang shook his head and sighed.

"Since that's the case, the two of you still insist on seconding the corresponding personnel according to the list. Isn't it intentional murder?" Hirofumi Ito shouted.

"Of course we will not deliberately murder the seconded officers, but officers and officers naturally need to join the army. Moreover, I, the Qing Dynasty, cannot raise a group of people in vain." Li Hongzhang sighed, "You Japanese are trying to make the Qing Dynasty. These soldiers are all vanguards, and they are all guilty and should atone for their sins with merits."

"How can I blame someone for the national war?" Hirofumi Ito said dissatisfied.

"The Russians in the north are determined to be undead in the northeast of the Qing Dynasty, and they are even more ready to move recently! Therefore, Ito-kun, these officers are actually used in combat against Russia in the future... The Qing Dynasty not only wants them, but also requires you to send troops to one or two divisions to help the battle! Otherwise, why do you want us to loosen your taxes? You must know that it is very unfavorable to the Japanese people. With the Qing Dynasty's magnanimous virtues, how could it do this?"
