I want to ruin the country

Among these, it is worth mentioning that Kyoto was captured and the emperor was captured.

The attack on Kyoto City did not encounter much resistance.

It is also possible that the resistance was so fierce that the Chinese army did not even notice it.

Anyway, the city defenses collapsed after a barrage of artillery fire. The soldiers rushed in, and the Japanese soldiers ignored their emperor and surrendered one after another.

I would like to add one more thing here. In fact, the fanatical love for the emperor started after the overthrow of the shogunate, that is, after the Meiji Restoration.

It started with Emperor Komei's son. At that time, the common people did not have such great love for the emperor.

For example, it is like the Buddha in the temple. People go back to worship him when the time comes, but if you ask someone to risk his life to protect the clay Buddha, you will definitely not do it.

In other words, the emperor at that time was still a standard mascot.

Moreover, from now on, some people have begun to mutter about overthrowing the shogunate, but Emperor Komei was unwilling to do so, as he was a staunch supporter of the shogunate.

Moreover, in history, Emperor Komei was said to have been poisoned, and the reason was most likely related to his support for the shogunate rule.

Emperor Komei was 1831 years old this year, the same age as Yining. He was born on July 7, 11.

The historical Emperor Xianfeng was born on July 1831, 7, six days younger than Emperor Komei.

The Chinese emperor, who was six days younger, captured Emperor Komei, who was six days older than him.

Emperor Komei did not feel embarrassed at all, and he kowtowed to Yining openly, and he bowed three times and kowtowed nine times.

It seems that he also knows that he, the emperor, is just a nobody on this tiny island.

The real emperor is the emperor of China, that is the real emperor,

People from other countries can only be kings, not emperors!

Moreover, in China, he is at best a Taiping Prince, not even a prince.

It is only natural to kowtow and worship the emperor.

Yining comes from the future, and he always looks at everything from a bird's-eye view.

For the sake of long-term stability in the local area and out of "love" for the foreign princes, Yining "suggested" that Xiaoming go to live in mainland China and "live out his old age."

Xiaoming had longed to visit the mainland for a long time. Now that his wish had finally come true, there was nothing to say. He packed up and left by boat.

After he arrived in the capital, Yining also gave him a palace to live in. From then on, he was like Adou, "happy here and not wanting to leave his homeland."

After dealing with Xiaoming, Yining put his worries aside and continued to advance north.

At this time, Cai Hemin, who came from the north, had already arrived at the gates of Edo Castle.

The order they received was to lead an army of 100,000 to land on Honshu Island from Hokkaido.

Caihe's militia did not land on Honshu Island after the troops from Korea and Tsushima Island arrived and joined forces. Instead, they were ordered by telegram to land at Xinxie and then move from south to north.

This saves a lot of effort.

Cai Hemin landed at Oma, Shiriya and Heiwakan, and attacked from north to south.

After Cai Hemin and his men landed, they encountered Sasaki's army.

There is nothing much to talk about when the two sides meet, they just start fighting.

However, there are only 20,000 veterans under Sasaki, and the rest are new recruits.

The oldest is over fifty, and the youngest is only fourteen or fifteen.

Not to mention them, even the well-trained veterans would have to flee when they saw Cai Hemin and his men, not to mention these small fry.

When they fought, they had neither courage nor rules. The best description of them could be found in four words: "collapse at the first touch."

These soldiers were not good at fighting or running. They were very slow and could not outrun the new army soldiers at all.

Therefore, it was not like the new army soldiers were fighting at all, they were basically just chasing after the Japanese soldiers.

At first, Sasaki was still able to control his men and might find a place to fight a battle with the new army.

Later on, the officers in the army died or surrendered, and he couldn't even control the troops!

No one listened to Sasaki's orders. Apart from some troops guarding him, he had no idea where the other soldiers had gone or how many there were.

Sasaki had no choice but to run away!

Unexpectedly, he met the new army while running.

It turned out that they were the troops from Tsushima Island and Korea. After they landed in Xinxie, they blocked their way all the way across, like an iron bolt, locking them in the north!

Cai Hemin attacked from both the north and the south, and wiped out most of Sasaki's troops in just two days.

Sasaki, panic-stricken like a stray dog, fled into Edo Castle with less than 20,000 defeated soldiers.

Edo Castle was later known as Tokyo, and it was the capital since the shogunate came to power.

Tokugawa Ieyoshi, who was like an ant on the hot pan, was furious and ordered Sasaki to be beheaded.

Sasaki was terrified. They had a saying that if one lost their head, they would never be able to be reborn, so they would rather commit suicide by disembowelment than be beheaded.

Sasaki begged hard, and Doihara Yoshi and others pleaded for him, and only then did Tokugawa Ieharu agree to let him make amends for his crime.

Yuichi Oshima was also losing ground, but he had fought with An Yiquan twice before.

This kid was very slippery and retreated before An Yiquan could surround him.

They retreated all the way to Edo.

When Oshima Yuichi received the news that Sasaki was almost beheaded, he did not dare to enter the city. He set up camp outside the city and said that he would defend Edo Castle to the death.

Instead, Tokugawa Ieharu commended him, saying that he was loyal and brave.

Tokugawa Ieharu is furious every day. Are our soldiers all made of clay?

How to do?How to do?

Could it be that the shogunate era that began in 1185 has ended in his own hands?

No, no, no, not just the shogunate era, but the entire Japanese country!

Just when Tokugawa Ieharu was in a state of panic, the Chinese army in the south advanced to Yamanashi and Kanagawa.

The Cai Hemin troops in the north surrounded Saitama from Gunma.

Dou Zhenbiao's fleet sailed directly from the later Tokyo Bay to the outskirts of Edo Castle and blockaded Chikura.

Deng Yongchang's fleet blockaded the two docks of Kashima and Iioka.

At this point, Edo Castle was surrounded by both land and water.

Within a hundred kilometers of Edo Castle, 200,000 Chinese troops and the last 200,000 troops of Tokugawa Ieharu were assembled.

Although the new Chinese army was fighting in a foreign country, strange phenomena occurred.

That is, the Chinese New Army did not harm ordinary people, but the Japanese soldiers took advantage of the situation to rob.

The new army has iron discipline. As long as you are not a soldier with a gun, you can do whatever you want and we will never interfere.

If they are soldiers, it is not possible. Unless they surrender, they will be annihilated.

There are also Japanese soldiers pretending to be ordinary people. If they don’t have weapons, they can be captured. But if they hide weapons and want to do bad things, I’m sorry!

Therefore, the ordinary people living near Edo Castle did not panic and continued to do what they had to do.
