At around 2 pm on February 3, 1909, Tokyo Palace, Japan. [This article comes from 'Piaotianwen.com Novel Network']

When Emperor Meiji Mutsuhito reviewed the memorials, he was worried and depressed, so he asked someone to call two old ministers Aitoto Yama Prefecture to chat and Hirofumi Ito to relieve his boredom.

Yama Prefecture Aritomo and Ito Hirofumi are both old foxes, so they naturally know why Emperor Meiji was unhappy.

After sitting down at the palace, after chatting for a few words, Yama County Youpeng took the lead in comforting him and said confidently: "His Majesty the Emperor, please rest assured that the imperial army will not disappoint you. You will definitely be able to destroy the Indonesian xenophobic army and invade the entire Southern Borneo within a few months."

Mu Ren's face was solemn and said in a deep voice: "Shan County, I am very confident in the army of the empire."

After a pause, Muroin showed a proud look on his face, and continued: "However, after the loss of the Russo-Japanese War, the Imperial Army has been recuperating in recent years. Without formal battles, its combat effectiveness will inevitably decline a little.

The Indonesian xenophobic army in Borneo has been fighting continuously in the past two years, and has mastered thermal weapons such as rifles and artillery, and its combat effectiveness is extraordinary.

Therefore, since the Seventh Regiment was completely wiped out, I have been unable to sleep or eat, and I am extremely worried about the progress of our army in Borneo."

Yuto Yama Prefecture was about to answer the conversation, Hirofumi Ito, the old rival of Yuto Yama Prefecture, frowned and said, "What His Majesty the Emperor said was the most important thing. The old minister thought that it would be easy to win Borneo with the combat power of the Imperial Army. But now, not only did it make no progress, but it also lost its troops and generals. Therefore, the old minister has been worried about this war recently."

Jadeyama Prefecture Akito looked over with his eyes staring at him. Hirofumi Ito ignored him and raised his voice and continued: "Now it seems that this war, the right time, the right place and the right people are not in our army. In addition, although the enemy's combat power is far inferior to ours, the tactics are very well organized. Therefore, it is indeed not easy to invade South Borneo in a short period of time."

"Old Ito, what do you think you should do next?" Yama Prefecture Yuto said a little unkindly, saying solemnly: "Although our army suffered setbacks due to carelessness, after adjustment, the tactics have been changed now, and I believe that the goal will be achieved soon."

"It takes a step by step, and advances slowly, which takes too long and consumes a lot of money, but in order to win safely, this is the only way." Hirofumi Ito sighed, changed the subject, and said to Emperor Meiji: "His Majesty the Emperor, now the Lanfang Republic is criticized by our country and is at a disadvantage in public opinion. I believe that they will not dare to attack our army rashly for a while.

The old minister suggested that peace could be negotiated with the Lanfang Republic for a while, and proposed that as long as the Lanfang Republic withdraws troops, we believe that they are innocent and no longer associate Indonesian xenophobic troops with them."

"Yoxi" Mutsuhito agreed: "What Your Excellency Ito said is in line with my intentions. When the Indonesian xenophobic army was eliminated and the rule in South Borneo was stabilized, it would not be too late to settle the accounts with the Lanfang Republic."

Hirobu Ito continued to suggest: "His Majesty the Emperor, the empire has issued 200 million public debts in this war. The old minister believes that according to the current course of the war, issuing 200 million public debts is far from enough. We should take advantage of the enthusiasm of the people to support and protect overseas Chinese to issue about 300 million public debts."

Mutsuhito nodded and said, "Well, Prime Minister Kanetaro has also mentioned this to me, and I have agreed."

"Emperor's Holy Spirit" Hirofumi Ito flatters.

"His Majesty the Emperor, Prime Minister Keitaro and Foreign Minister Komura Shoutaro asked for a meeting." The three of them were chatting, and the imperial guards came in to report.

"Xuan and the others come in." Mu Ren said.

After the imperial guards left, Muren murmured: "The Prime Minister came when he was the same as the outside world. Is there something wrong with Borneo?"

After a while, Kanetaro and Komura Sutaro walked in. After seeing the rein, Muroin saw that their faces were gloomy, so he asked anxiously: "Is it because of Borneo that Prime Minister and Foreign Minister come together?"

Kashitaro and Komura Sutaro looked at each other, and Kashitaro said respectfully: "The army of Your Majesty's Holy Empire, under the personal command of General Nogi Hinomi, has been progressing smoothly since the attack was launched on the 22nd of last month and is about to attack the hinterland of Southern Borneo."

"Really?" Muren asked, "Where is that Indonesian xenophobic army? Has it been hit hard?"

"No." Kanetaro said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, after the battle in Sota Town, the Indonesian xenophobic army quickly fled and did not contact our army anymore. They just sent countless small troops to harass and attack our army's logistics supply line to delay our army's offensive speed."

"Yoxi" Yupeng of Shan County said with a deep impression: "As expected, as the 9th Division reported, in the battle of Sota Town, although our seventh registrar was wiped out, the enemy was also the first to be seriously invaded and lost the will and ability to continue fighting.

Hehe, it seems that our army is too careful. Your Majesty, the old minister suggests that the army should be ordered to speed up the attack immediately."

"This matter should be decided by the commanders on the front line. I believe that General Nogi and Kuroki will judge the situation and take positive measures." Mutsuhito said happily. Thinking that the war was about to accelerate, Mutsuhito couldn't help but become cheerful.

At this time, Prime Minister Kaetaro gave a wink to Foreign Minister Komura Sutaro, who came forward and reported: "His Majesty the Emperor, Liang Cheng, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Lanfang, held a press conference a few days ago, listing many unknown evidence to expose the crimes committed by the Imperial Army in Northeast China and Taiwan.

Liang Cheng not only unilaterally terminated the negotiations with the empire and announced that he would enter a state of war with our army. He also called on the Chinese people all over the world to unite, fight against the empire, and boycott the empire's goods and goods."

"What? What's going on?" Muren's face changed drastically and he asked anxiously.

It turned out that a few days ago, when Japanese Minister Ryohei Takeda was negotiating with Liang Cheng, Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs of Lanfang Republic, the old tune was repeated, proposing that Lanfang Republic give land and money compensation, and also demanded that Lanfang Republic hand over the culprit behind the massacre of Japanese overseas Chinese.

As a result of Chen Hao's instructions, Vice Foreign Minister Liang Cheng lost his "reason" and suddenly shouted to Japanese Minister Ryohei Takeda: "You Japanese robbers have robbed China's land in Northeast China and Taiwan, and now we are robbing the territory of our Lanfang Republic.

Starting today, we will stop negotiating that the troops of both sides are here. If you want to fight, you will not give you a piece of money.”

Then, Liang Cheng held a press conference, listing photos and other evidences that he spent a lot of money to collect, and showing reporters from various countries the heinous crimes committed by Japan in Northeast China and Taiwan.

At the same time, the personnel of the Intelligence Department also took action, mobilizing Chinese people in China and the United States, and began an active boycott of Japanese goods...
