"On the 3rd day of the first month of August, the Beiyang Naval Division left the waters of the Ryukyu Islands, reassured in the northwest, and along the trench, approached the waters of the Satsuma Domain, Nagasaki Domain, and other islands, shelled Japanese fishing boats, and on 11 August, the formation left the waters of Tsushima Island and returned to Shandong." Zhang Jing read the report, and there was silence in the duty room of the Military Aircraft Department, Prince Gong obviously knew the contents, but he just closed his eyes to recuperate, "The Beiyang Naval Division has not left the domestic waters, and it has no intention of targeting Japan......

"Okay, okay," Bao Jun shook his hand, "What are you talking about, now that you have returned safely, it is best not to have trouble with the Japanese, Lord Wang, do you think this is the reason." ”

The people from the Military Aircraft Department just looked at Prince Gong, Prince Gong opened his eyes, took a sip of tea slowly, and nodded, "What you said is good, you didn't make a fuss, so it's enough to scare the Japanese." ”

Wen Xiang asked, "When you call up, do you want to impeach Peng Yulin?" ”

"Don't be busy, depending on the attitude of the Japanese," said Prince Gong, "Okubo Ritsu is a great minister before the Emperor of Japan, and I can't be very snub with him, and when I met him the day before yesterday, he said very fiercely, and expressed serious protest against the violation of the sailors." I prevaricated the emperor's words to him, and he was just helpless. ”

"What face do you need for a small state?" Bao Jun sneered slightly, "It's just that the prince gave him face like this, and if you want me to say, such a small country, just send it to the Li Fan Yuan to deal with it, and arrange it to the Sifang Pavilion to let the Prime Minister's Yamen hand over, it's really a mouse to go to the lampstand, why can't he go to heaven!" ”

Hu Linyi twisted his beard and said, "Japan, not to be underestimated, prince, ministers, the story of the previous dynasty is also known to everyone, Japan Toyotomi Hideyoshi wants to invade China, first take Korea as a springboard, not much time, the east of Pyongyang will fall, at that time is Emperor Mingshenzong when the Emperor Mingshenzong is there, Wanli three major expeditions, there is an eastern expedition to Japan, it took a lot of strength to defeat Japan, although the Wanli Dynasty martial arts are good, but this national strength is slowly declining, Japan's wolf ambitions, spying on China for a long time, and now there is more about conquering KoreaAlthough Japan is no big problem in China, it is also uncomfortable to hurt the muscles and bones, and now the Beiyang Navy Division is all dispatched, I am afraid that the Japanese will see the bottom line, and they will catch up, and they know it in their hearts. ”

"Yes, yes!" Bao Jun said loudly, "Just use this leak of secrets to find trouble with Peng Yulin, don't listen to the center, don't have a good life without him!" ”

In his position, he can't blame Baojun for this, after all, he wants to maintain the authority of the Military Aircraft Department, Prince Gong nodded, "Then wait for the attitude of the Japanese, what is it, if they are soft, I will treat this matter as if there is still turmoil, there must be no good fruit for them to eat, Wenshan," Prince Gong instructed Wen Xiang, "My resignation will be written when the Queen Mother returns to Beijing, the emperor will go to Tianjin, I will not go, just in Beijing, you see, whoever is empty will take over." ”

"It's okay to go as an official," Hu Linyi said with a smile, "Tianjin is prosperous, I haven't seen it yet, so I took the opportunity to see it." ”

Prince Gong nodded, "Then it's troublesome Runzhi," he has other things to worry about, the emperor has entered his own master, Xu Tong is a scholar of the Tiren Palace, this is a trivial matter, but the emperor has the intention of adding people to the military aircraft, and the reason is also very sufficient, saying that he wants to share the burden of Wen Xiang and protect the body of the loyal ministers, this is true, Wen Xiang has recently wanted to cultivate his body well, and the two things of the promotion of the university and the addition of people to the military aircraft department are not a good thing, and the emperor wants to stuff Xu Tong into the military aircraft department? What can Xu Tong do, except for adding blockage to himself!

Prince Gong thought of the dispute with Japan again, and his own title, and his heart was in a mess, "Hey," he sighed, and said something in his heart, "There is no comfortable time for this day!" ”……

Although the kneeling ceremony has been abolished, Matsushima Shimoishi couldn't help but kneel, "Please give me seppuku Your Majesty!" I have brought shame on the Empire! "The Qing Dynasty's Beiyang Naval Division simply sailed along the Satsuma Domain, Nagasaki Domain, and Tsushima Domain, and it caused panic among the subjects in various places, which was the incompetence of the navy. I must apologize.

"It's not the shame you bring, it's not enough for us, Saigo, your conquest of Han Ce must be let go first," Emperor Meiji said to this "Meiji Three Masters", "Now we must first reform the feudal remnants of the domestic system, as well as the introduction of advanced technology by the Secretary of Works, we must first cultivate our own capabilities, and the affairs of the Korean Peninsula must be put down first, because if the navy is not built well, the Korean Peninsula will always be Chinese!" ”

Saigo Takamori reluctantly responded, Emperor Meiji seemed to be unaffected by this setback, and wisely issued an order, "Let Okubo Toshitsu prepare to establish diplomatic relations with the Qing State, we must now face up to China's opponent, the Ryukyu matter, if the Qing State is unwilling, we will not talk about it first, as long as we are strong, the Ryukyu Kingdom is nothing at all, in the future, Manchuria, Korea, Taiwan, we will get more!" (To be continued.) )
