Yuncheng Central Pavilion is where important high-level officials of the Chinese government work. This place was originally a deserted place, but as Yuncheng slowly expanded, many government departments were built in this place.
Guarding the center is the Central Pavilion, and Yunze's office is in the middle, surrounded by senior officials from various ministries. Song Rui, as Prime Minister, is sitting in Yunze's office at this time.
Looking at Yunze across from him, he was filled with emotions at this moment. The boy he met for the first time has now become the Lord of China. In just over six years, he has grown up too fast.
He is also grateful for his original choice. Today, China is prosperous, which makes him full of energy. Everything is developing in a good direction and in the direction he expects. The prosperous times may not be far away.
He also admired Yunze's foresight and lack of greed for power. If he were an ordinary person, he would have realized his dream of imperial power and controlled all power in his own hands.
Now, Yunze has decentralized most of his power. Although the power he holds is supreme, it is still far behind the imperial power. But because of this, he feels that this country will go further.
"Your Majesty, Feng Batian has received news that the massacre of villages in Yongcheng was caused by Japanese bandits. They fled to the coastal area and there are three forces. According to the captured Japanese bandits, their island country has undergone great changes and now it has fallen apart. "
Song Rui is reporting to Yunze about the massacre of the fishing village in Yongcheng. The information returned was obtained from the captured Japanese pirates' mouths.
The specific situation is that after the Japanese country was colonized by the Hebrews, it split into two forces, the north and the south. The power in the south was controlled by the Hebrews.
The forces in the north were composed of several shogunates, led by a shogun named Oda Yuuo, who formed the Northern Alliance, while the colonized forces in the south were led by a puppet named Emperor Akihito.
Just four years ago, after Yunze led the People's Army to defeat the Hebrews, the Hebrews' dominance in the Japanese kingdom became weaker and weaker, and the north and the south united to resist.
Three years ago, the allied forces of the North and the South finally killed all the Hebrews, and some of the Hebrews and their loyal dogs escaped from the Japanese country.
The North and the South began to completely rule the Japanese country, and used all the technological wealth left by the Hebrews for their own use. For a time, the strength of the North and the South increased greatly.
But not long ago, the alliance between the north and the south split and a war began. Because Emperor Akihito in the south has the most technological wealth, he is stronger than the north.
The northern shogunate fought on its own, and everyone had ambitions. Therefore, in the end, the northern shogunate alliance was defeated, and it was heard that Emperor Akihito once again fell into the arms of the Hebrews.
The defeated Hebrews came back again, and Emperor Akihito launched an encirclement and suppression campaign against the Northern Alliance earlier. Those Japanese pirates who escaped from the shogunate came to the coastal areas of China. They occupied the islands off the coast.
The islands they occupy are almost all uninhabited islands. Due to the current difficulties in overseas development, the entire outer sea of China is mostly undeveloped islands, thus giving those Japanese pirates a good living space.
However, the lack of supplies forced them to have the idea of plundering along the coast, and their first stop was Yongcheng. The main reason was because they captured some fishermen at sea and learned from them. Found out.
Because Yongcheng was the first coastal place to be developed, the people had the most abundant life in the sea. As for the fishermen they caught, they all died in the sea. Because the Japanese pirates have not been here for a long time.
They soon discovered that there was a naval fleet along the coast. They cleverly hid it, sometimes using fishermen's fishing villages as cover, but they did not let the coastal navy discover it.
The reason why the fishing village in Yongcheng was robbed this time was because the villagers in the fishing village discovered their traces, and they took action in order to silence them. Of course, it was also to plunder supplies and test China's reaction.
If China has nothing to do with them, they will definitely become more and more rampant. Song Rui told Yunze all the information he had obtained.
The situation is that Japanese pirates are elusive, very familiar with water, and have strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities. It is very difficult for the navy to find their traces in the vast sea.
Moreover, if they invaded the coastal areas, they would not be able to be dealt with by the navy, and there were not many troops deployed along the coastal areas. Furthermore, since the founding of China, there has not been any more conscription.
There are only about 750,000 troops in the entire China, and they have to be distributed and deployed throughout China. Therefore, there are not many troops left in the coastal areas.
For example, there are only 2,000 troops garrisoned in Yongcheng. The remaining coastal cities such as Belvedere and Wencheng also have 2,000 troops. The total troops along the entire coast are only 30,000.
Of course, if you include the Zhejiang and Ningbo Prefectures and up, the number of troops is about 150,000, but these troops are scattered too far apart, and it is impossible to mobilize them all to one place.
After all, there is a long coastline to guard, and safety everywhere must be ensured. Therefore, the military strength appears to be somewhat insufficient.
According to the information obtained, the forces of the Japanese pirate shogunate were divided into three groups, with a total of about 130,000 people. The most powerful group was Oda Yongo's group, which had 60,000 people.
The remaining ones are Yagyu Itto's group of about 40,000 people, followed by Fujita Nobukatsu, who has 30,000 people.
This time, the Japanese pirates who massacred the fishing village of Yongcheng were Japanese pirates belonging to Oda Yongo. They were entrenched on Xiangzhi Island outside Yongcheng. If they were to mobilize on a large scale, they could mobilize 50,000 troops.
If they really want to capture any coastal city, it is really possible for them to do it. However, with the cunningness of the Japanese country, they know that they cannot defend any city, so what they can do is to plunder the city after capturing it. Just run away.
Therefore, for coastal cities, the most difficult thing is to defend the city. And the safety of the people. Although the current People's Army is equipped with new weapons, it is said that the weapons used by Japanese pirates are similar to those in the hands of the People's Army.
If tens of thousands of people attack the city, no matter how advanced the People's Army's equipment is, there is still a risk of the city being breached. Feng Batian meant that he hoped Yunze would make a decision as soon as possible. Otherwise, if Japanese pirates really rob a certain city, the people along the coast will suffer.
Feng Batian has recently strengthened patrols along the coast, and the navy has also expanded again. Although the activities of Japanese pirates have been suppressed, this is not a solution. Japanese pirates will always find a way to break the situation, which will cause trouble.
He hoped to get Yunze's instructions on how to defeat the enemy. After hearing Song Rui's report, Yunze felt endless murderous intent in his heart.
History did repeat itself. Even though the dynasty he traveled through was very different from the original world, as long as there were Japanese pirates in the world, their predatory nature could not be changed.
What he can do now is to mobilize the People's Army as soon as possible and rush to the coastal areas to support the new weapons where they can be put to use. Yunze asked people to find Su Qianmo and Yue Pengju. The combat mission was assigned.
One hundred thousand People's Army soldiers are ready to go and will rush to Yongcheng and other coastal places at an extremely fast speed. After setting up defenses, they will give Japanese crowns a fatal blow.
