Chapter 845: A Serious Nonsense (Part I)

"Shameless villain, villain! They actually killed the women of our Great Japanese Empire, the war between the soldiers, and they actually involved the women? Bastard, shameless! Emperor Meiji said angrily.

When Emperor Meiji learned that Wang Guorui had actually attacked their Japanese women in Korea, his face turned blue. The so-called last emperor in Japan who can have more than one woman, he naturally knows this. The more the emperor understood, the more he understood that it was women who needed to rely on to reproduce offspring, and if there were no women, how could they reproduce? Since ancient times, the emperor has seventy-two concubines in three palaces and six courts, in fact, they are not necessarily really lustful and like women. In fact, sometimes as an emperor, there is also a responsibility to collect concubines. In fact, Emperor Meiji was not lustful, he only accepted so many women out of a sense of responsibility, and then reproduced as many offspring as possible. In ancient times, the medical conditions were not good, and children could easily die, even if it was very likely that the children of the royal family died in ancient times. The royal family is like this, let alone the people.

And as ancient people, the improvement of medical conditions did not happen overnight. And as emperors, what they can do is a stupid way, that is, Dona concubine, and then increase this ratio. No matter how large the proportion of premature deaths is, there is a limit, and it is impossible for all of them to die prematurely. So charge more women, and try to pile up the quantity, and someone will always grow up. Therefore, the emperor accepts women, in fact, he may not be really lustful, but has an important task of reproducing offspring for the family and spreading the branches. Emperor Meiji actually tried monogamy back then, and if it weren't for someone suggesting that he was afraid of the Japanese imperial family, he might not have taken more women, and Emperor Meiji was relatively better than Wang Guorui in treating women.

But now Wang Guorui actually burned the war on the heads of those Japanese women, which means that they will face a shortage of women in Japan in the future. Once women are lacking, men alone cannot "make people". If a woman is ten months pregnant, a man will be able to do a good job. Some men have several shots a day. So the difference between these two is not ordinarily big. Emperor Meiji, as a king, understood this very well, so he was shocked by Wang Guorui's ruthless methods, which was too ruthless.

"Tell the news to the Europeans in Europe and let them condemn the Chinans. Also, isn't there a person called the Conservative Party among the people of China? They are those who come from rotten backgrounds. Let them condemn Wang Guorui's Emperor of China, and then let them stop using these shameless means under the pressure of public opinion. Killing women and children, what kind of hero is this? War is a war between soldiers, so why implicate these innocent people? Emperor Meiji said.

In the palace, Wang Guorui, according to the custom, listened to a report on the results of the Korean war once a day, that is, the killing statistics of those mercenaries yesterday, and then made a judgment.

"Your Majesty, according to the statistics there. The mercenaries had killed more than 6,000 young Japanese women and more than 3,000 children. Now the mercenaries are aiming to kill women and children, because killing a young woman can get the same reward as killing an enemy professional soldier, and a small child can also get fifteen yuan. Women and children have weak resistance and almost no ability to resist, so the cost is the lowest and the relative benefit is the highest, so they are also keen to kill women and children. ”

Wang Guorui listened to the words of the staff officer of the chamberlain. They all let him go back, and there are no major changes at the moment. But. What follows is obviously not that simple.

"Your Majesty, some foreign reporters and Conservative Party people came to inquire about it, and the foreign reporters thought that it was inhumane and shameless for us to kill women and children in the war. And those Conservatives, they think that we Chinese are very unkind to kill women and children abroad. They want an explanation from our court. Explain publicly and stop the killing of women and children in Japan. In addition, it is necessary to severely punish those who kill Japanese women and children and violate the rules of war. ”

Wang Guorui snorted coldly: "Let Li Enfu solve this matter." Rules of war. I only know one thing, win or lose! ”

Soon, Mr. Li made a public press conference as the spokesman for the Chinese government, followed by a speech.

"Regarding what you have said, about us Chinese interfering in wars in other countries overseas, and then even killing women and children. We have preliminary findings and we admit that this is true! Li Enfu said.

And those reporters were immediately excited, and they would admit it? And everyone originally thought that Li Enfu would be killed and denied it, and then they came up with evidence to refute Li Enfu. After all, this kind of military operation, it is impossible not to leave a tail. The Japanese must have some evidence, so they let these European ghost animal reporters attack Wang Guorui. However, Wang Guorui and his gang are no longer those young and immature young people, they have long become a cunning politician, where would they be afraid of these?

"May I ask Minister Li, you Chinese soldiers are actually killing women and children overseas, please give an explanation to the international community!" "Yes! Explain! "We, the Conservative Party, criticize this kind of behavior, how can we, who are righteous and righteous teachers, do such a thing of killing the women and children of the enemy, and even impeach the cabinet and let them punish the corresponding responsible persons!" ……

A series of shouts and scolding, obviously scolding, after all, Li Enfu took the initiative to admit this, can they not take advantage of the victory to pursue?

However, Li Enfu said: "Everyone is quiet, I just said that we Chinese kill people overseas, but I don't admit that the Chinese army kills people overseas!" After our investigation, although these people are all Chinese nationals, they are also a group of mercenaries. You know what mercenaries are, right? I don't need to explain more. And since they are mercenaries, they are not the army of our government, they are paid to fight, and our government cannot control them. As long as they obey the law in our territory, then we can't do anything to them! ”

"And these mercenaries were hired by the Korean nobles to kill the enemy. And these mercenaries are all hired by the Korean nobles, and it is a transaction between them and the Korean nobles, which is none of our business. And they are not our regular army, so we are not obligated to take responsibility for the actions of some non-government military personnel outside. If you can, you can just go and exterminate them, and our Chinese government will definitely have no opinion. Since they are mercenaries, they must be prepared to die in battle, so we will not have an opinion, and we will not stand up for them. Li Enfu replied.

It is shameless that those Western journalists almost vomited blood and actually blamed the mercenaries for this. At present, no one in the world knows that all of China's mercenaries are under the supervision of the Chinese military, and even among the mercenaries, China's so-called "military representatives" are supervising. And those military representatives are graduates of some military academies, let them get acquainted with the atmosphere of the battlefield, and then come back to promote and reuse. And military cadets are also willing to be military representatives, because to be a military representative is to experience the battlefield, and after experiencing the battlefield, they can definitely be given priority promotion, after all, they have war experience! No matter which country it is, officers with war experience will definitely be given priority in promotion, even if it is not true for China in later generations?

Moreover, there are many advantages to being a military representative, not only can you accumulate war experience, but you can also enjoy more double salaries, as well as various service salaries, etc., and the comprehensive income is almost more than double that of officers of the same level who have just graduated. And those mercenaries are also willing to invite a military representative to come over, because these military representatives represent the overseer, if you don't let the court supervise, will the court think that you want to rebel? Therefore, it is necessary to invite a military representative to come over and reassure the court that there is no idea of rebellion. On the other hand, according to the so-called tacit rules and tacit understanding, the military representative is obliged to act as a staff officer of the mercenary team, and then guide those mercenaries tactically, and as a staff officer, those mercenaries can fight better and reduce casualties. This also gives those military representatives a way to apply what they have learned, and those mercenaries also have professional soldiers as a guide, which can avoid many casualties, and then get the maximum result at the minimum cost, so this is a win-win result.

There are so many "military representatives" among the mercenaries, and you say that the Chinese government does not know that those mercenaries are killing women and children in foreign countries? This is to go to the grave to burn newspapers, fooling the ghost!

It's obviously secretly instructed by the Chinese government, but now it's actually pushed to these mercenaries, isn't this nonsense? Who wouldn't know this kind of means, and what politician doesn't understand? The use of the regular army is too politically risky, and it is also easy for the people to resent the image of their own country. Coupled with economic reasons, and some intelligence reasons, it is more appropriate to use mercenaries. If the formal transfer of troops has to go through parliaments and other organizations, it will not be able to be effectively kept secret. Wang Guorui himself is also very careful about military power, and would rather set up more restrictive means to avoid someone holding absolute military power.

So when necessary, the mercenaries are the ones who come out to carry the black pot.

"So, it's all because the Korean nobles didn't restrain the mercenaries, and we can't do anything about it!" Li Enfu said.

"You're talking nonsense, you're talking serious nonsense! Isn't it unreasonable to shirk it to the Korean nobles now, even though you instructed it? Immediately, a European and American reporter shouted. (To be continued.) )
