Even though no one from the Nakata United Team managed to escape, Yamamoto Genbu still received news that Hanaya Yoshiki and Major General Takashima Sunosuke had been completely wiped out.
While they were angry, they were also shocked.
"How many troops did the Qing army send this time? The Nakata United Team is the elite of our empire, how could they be wiped out!“
Yamamoto Netake punched the table in front of him and leaned forward to relieve the depression in his heart.
The Nakata United Team was his favorite team. They were the two strongest teams in the entire exploration team.
However, the glorious Choshu Legion was fearless. As a proud member of the Japanese Imperial Army, he was prepared to face the challenge of the Qing Kingdom.
Sir, we should let those Chinese pigs know the power of our imperial army and give His Majesty an explanation.”Yamamoto Netake said to the silent Yoshiki.
"The second regiment is also ready!“
Takashima Suinosuke said angrily. He was a major general of the dynasty, but he was the only exploration team assigned to this expedition. This made him extremely depressed and eager to prove his strength.
Yamamoto, Takashima, as a soldier of the Empire, you can't just be reckless. You have to find the right time to serve His Majesty the Emperor and not make unnecessary sacrifices. This time, 10,000 people from the Qing Kingdom had come, and they had brought along quite a number of cannons.”
"The Empire is not ready to start a full-scale war with the Qing people yet. We need time. This is just a test to test the bottom line of the Qing people! Do you understand?"
Yi Zhi looked at the two of them and said earnestly.
"Yes, my lord. But are we just going to give up on Lily like this?”Yamamoto Netake lowered his head in agreement, but his back was straight.
"Yes! Now that Korea is in chaos, we have many opportunities!“
Takashima Suinosuke obviously didn't want to let go of this opportunity, but Hanaya Yoshiki was a civil servant, but he was deeply trusted by Ito Hakufumi. Moreover, he was familiar with Koryo and the Qing Kingdom. This time, he had the right to control the two officers.
"The purpose of probing has been achieved. The Qing people have sent troops and dared to attack us. Take your soldiers with you. We will withdraw from Han City and leave the chaos here to the Qing people.”
Yizhi's face was gloomy. He had thought that the Qing Emperor would be in chaos when he ascended the throne. He did not expect that the empire would train a new army and their weapons seemed to be much better. This caught him off guard.
"Let's retreat outside the city and see if there's a chance. If there's no chance, we'll retreat immediately!"“
He was not giving up this great opportunity, but he had to withdraw from Han City because Qing was the suzerain of Korea. Whether it was the public opinion or the government, Korea had a high degree of recognition.
Although they had done a certain amount of cleansing, they had occupied Han City. Once the Qing soldiers arrived, those Korean lambs would take the opportunity to counterattack.
'God Amaterasu bless us!“
He looked out the window and muttered.
The next day, the Japanese withdrew from Han City and stationed themselves 50 miles south of the city.
On the third day, Yuan Shikai led 10,000 new soldiers to the city of Han City. Along the way, the Korean people lined the streets to welcome him, and they did not meet the Japanese army again.
When they arrived in Han City, Yuan Shikai ordered them to set up camp outside Wuli and led dozens of guards straight to the palace.
Hearing the news of the arrival of the Qing army, the palace of Koryo was in chaos. Some people close to the mother country began to secretly contact each other, and Li Xingying felt uneasy.
"Damned Japanese! He didn't keep his promise! But this was good too! They are all stationed outside the city to restrain each other. The entire Goryeo is my world.“
He kept consoling himself.
"Not good! Not good!“
The High Kingdom's Angel had arrived. A eunuch hurriedly ran in and shouted.
"What are you panicking about? He was shouting! The Qing Kingdom only wants an obedient vassal state. Now, most of the Han City army is in my hands. As long as I respect them a little, what can they do?“
He chose to ignore the Min family and the forces supporting King Koryo.
After saying this, he felt much more at ease. He sat on the throne and quietly waited for the person to come.
Why didn't the Goryeo royal family send someone to welcome the envoy of a superior country?“
With a cold snort, a young officer appeared in everyone's field of vision.
Yuan Shikai did not even put down his weapon. After a few whips, the gatekeepers obediently made way for him. A few people directly barged into the palace. The Korean army did not dare to stop them without receiving orders.
