Red Alert 1895

Chapter 353: 1 thing drop 1 thing

In the next few days, the East China Sea became a mess. Taiwan’s navy and Japan’s navy were patrolling and cruising around the East China Sea. From time to time, they deliberately fired a few shells in the direction of each other, which made the other side demonstrate. look. And no one knows that Japan and Taiwan have no idea of ​​​​going to war with each other, and Japan sent directly to create tension in the East China Sea to help the Spaniards attract Taiwan's attention, so that the Spaniards can also gain the advantage of a sneak attack.

And once the tense atmosphere is created, even after Nanyang is attacked by surprise, Taiwan will not dare to send the Taiwan Strait fleet to support. Of course, Taiwan has already obtained their inside information and intends to plot against Spain in turn. And in order to assassinate Spain, it is natural to cooperate with this Japan and deliberately make them think that they have been tricked, so the next conflict with Japan in the East China Sea will be unbearable. As for the new Beiyang navy of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, seeing this scene made me want to cry without tears! Because the two great gods are fighting in the East China Sea, haven't they these little fish and shrimps become victims?

"Captain Xing, the Japanese destroyer force is in front of us. Shall we fire guns to demonstrate?" the artillery officer of the detachment asked.

"Fire! But don't aim directly. After all, it's said above that you can fire, but don't hit the enemy!" Said Captain Xing of the Destroyer Detachment.

"Don't fire, don't fire!"

Just when Taiwan was about to fire, a large warship immediately "called" with semaphore in the distance. Keep both sides from firing.

"Captain Xing, this is the Yellow Dragon Banner of the Qing Dynasty, and the Beiyang Navy of the Qing Dynasty! Do we want to continue firing?"

Captain Xing heard this. They all sighed and said: "After all, many of us came from the Beiyang Navy, so it can be regarded as giving them some face, and it can also be regarded as a kind of incense!"

Soon, the cruiser of the Beiyang Navy immediately began to persuade each other to stop fighting. During this period of time, the two sides fired at each other, blowing up many fish and turtles, and suffered a catastrophe. The East China Sea has become a forbidden area for fishermen. I dare not come to fish. But now this Man Qing didn't know that he had taken the wrong medicine, and he actually wanted to mediate the conflict between the two parties.

soon. The two sides also sent representatives to the cruiser of the Beiyang Navy to prepare for negotiations.

Taiwan's destroyer detachment sent a liaison officer from the Political Department with the rank of captain. Obviously, they did not take the Manchu mediation seriously. However, that Japan didn't have a good face, and they just sent a major, obviously they didn't take it seriously.

And the two parties came to the cruiser named Zhengyuan, ready to discuss the next tripartite relationship.

"You two, I am the captain of the Zhengyuan cruiser of our Great Qing Beiyang Navy, and I have the rank of lieutenant general. My name is Sun Nian." Sun Nian said.

And Sun Nian's lieutenant general rank was actually converted into a regular military rank. That is to say, it is equivalent to a brigadier general, or a senior colonel in Taiwan. However, he is just a captain here. And I'm afraid it won't be much better in the future.

"Both of you, isn't it inappropriate for you to cruise in the waters of the Qing Dynasty?" Sun Nian asked.

And Taiwan's liaison staff officer immediately said: "Fart, isn't our Taiwan navy the Chinese navy? Could it be that our Chinese navy can't patrol in our territorial waters?"

Sun Nian was embarrassed and speechless, because he couldn't say that Taiwan is not part of China, could he? If he dared to say so. Not to mention that Wang Guorui will not let him go, even Li Hongzhang from the Manchu Qing Dynasty will not let him go. At that time, it was to make Wang Guorui give up the idea of ​​independence. That was the sacrifice of an arm and future of Li Hongzhang's son in exchange for Wang Guorui's promise not to be independent. And if he dared to say that Taiwan is not China's territory, then Li Hongzhang and the people from the Beiyang Group would dare to skin him alive.

And now Taiwan is cruising in its own territorial waters as its own military force. This obviously makes sense, and it is impossible to refute. But Sun Nian was helpless, and his superiors asked him to quickly send away the two masters who had arrived in Taiwan and Japan, so as to restore peace to the East China Sea. This task is not easy!

This is like dancing on top of two eggs, it won't work if you step on any of them! So Sun Nian was very embarrassed, he didn't know what to do.

"Nonsense, this is the territorial waters of our Empire of Japan, and the entire East China Sea is the inland sea of ​​our Empire of Japan, and our warships of the Empire of Japan are cruising in our own inland sea, so what can we do?" the Japanese Major said.

"What the **** are you talking about? The East China Sea is the inland sea of ​​your Japan?" asked the captain from Taiwan.

"Yes!" The Japanese major replied.

But that Sun Nian retorted embarrassingly: "Taiwan should be a sea area shared by our Qing Dynasty and Japan, shouldn't it be your inland sea?"

"Snapped!"

The Japanese major slapped Sun Nian and said, "I mean yes, don't interrupt!"

"Crack!" Sun Nian immediately slapped the table and said angrily, "What are you doing? I'm the lieutenant general, yet you hit me?"

Sun Nian was furious, he had the rank of lieutenant general, but in other countries he was at least a brigadier general, and in Taiwan he was a senior colonel, yet he was actually beaten up by a Japanese major, this is simply unreasonable. In the army, it is very important to be superior and inferior. Even if officers go to foreign countries, they must be treated appropriately according to their ranks, and they can be prepared to receive officers of equivalent ranks. But now the Japanese major dared to slap a respectful person, it was a crime.

"So what if I hit you? The Chinese?" The Japanese Major replied.

"You—" That Sun Nian immediately wanted to take out a pistol from his walking pocket.

"Sun Guandai, calm down, do you want to provoke a war between the imperial court and Japan? I am the supervisor, you must listen to me!" Another officer on the warship said.

In the Beiyang navy, in order to strengthen the control of the navy, each warship had a bannerman on each warship as a supervisor, and they were the ones who had the final decision. When the supervisor saw that Sun Nian was about to draw his gun, he immediately came out to stop him, obviously not daring to start a war between the two countries. If this Sun Nian beat the Japanese Army Major to death, then I'm afraid they won't be able to afford it!

After hearing this, Sun Nian gritted his teeth and put the pistol back. And that Japanese soldier was even more proud, obviously looked down on Sun Nian as a "colonel", he didn't take Sun Nian into his eyes at all.

"Hmph, is it too disrespectful to hit our colleagues in front of me?" asked the liaison officer in Taiwan.

"Hmm!" The Japanese Major hesitated.

Because they, the Taiwan Navy and the Beiyang Navy of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, are not like colleagues, because their uniforms are different. And Japan subconsciously forgot that Taiwan is still under the banner of the Manchu Qing, so he hit Sun Nian now, and the Taiwan liaison officer said that he hit his colleague in the Taiwan Navy, which is not unreasonable. Therefore, the Japanese commander was also a little embarrassed, as if he felt that something not so wonderful had happened.

"Who will help me throw this guy into the sea?" Taiwan's liaison officer asked, pointing to the Japanese major.

And everyone present also looked at each other, obviously there was no reaction for a while. And the officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Navy in the Manchu Qing Dynasty also looked at Sun Nian and the supervising army, obviously asking them if they want to help the people in Taiwan, throw this guy into the sea?

"What happened today, we in Taiwan will take full responsibility!" said the liaison officer.

After hearing this, a gunner of the Beiyang Navy immediately said: "I will help you, my lord, and throw this guy into the sea!"

"Let's go, let's go together. Since the adults in Taiwan are taking care of it, what do we have to be afraid of?" Several sailors said.

And soon, the Japanese army commander immediately said angrily: "What are you doing? I am the navy commander of the Great Japanese Empire, you Chinese people, how dare you be so rude to me?"

"Hurry up and throw this old guy into the sea, and Taiwan will take care of everything!" The liaison officer said again.

"Hey, hey, what are you going to do?" the Japanese army major said angrily.

"Snapped!"

The Japanese commander was thrown into the sea~lightnovelpub.net~ and Sun Nian and the supervisor of the bannerman also sighed silently. They could actually stop those soldiers just now, but they didn't give orders to stop them. Anyway, this time the people in Taiwan said they would do their best to bear it, so the responsibility was pushed to Taiwan. And this Sun Nian and the Bannerman Jianjun felt a little helpless in their hearts. The orders they received were absolutely not to offend any party, especially not to offend Japan. So they were slapped by a junior officer this time, and they didn't dare to object and retaliate.

And the Taiwanese navy was so chic, it threw him directly into the sea. They are all Chinese navy, why is the gap so big?

The Manchu Qing court told them that they had to be patient and that they would never offend the Japanese navy. If they provoked them, their responsibilities would be very heavy, and they would even be punished. And the meaning of the Manchu Qing court was to make them not fight back when they were hit or scolded, so this made them very aggrieved. However, Taiwan's instruction to its troops is that if people do not attack me, I will not attack others, and if people attack me, I will attack others. Moreover, if someone hits you, then you have to hit back, and even a lot of hits are considered revenge. And they are all squadrons, the gap is really too big. Taiwan took care of Japan like a grandson, but the mainland has nothing to do with the whole mainland, and it ended up in such a tragic end. This is simply too hurtful. (to be continued)
