Chapter 62—The Final Preparation

[The subjugation of the riots caused by the Chinese mob and the punishment of the Qing Dynasty government for neglecting it will end before Christmas this year.]

As German Marshal Alfred von Waldersee, who took command of the Allied Forces, was proud to say, Beijing fell before Christmas in 1900.

The Allied Forces showed amazing marching speed in spite of winter, and Empress Seo, who should lead the defensive war in Beijing-at least pretend to do so-had to leave Beijing with Guangxi as soon as he heard that the Allied forces had appeared in the suburbs of Beijing.

The citizens of Beijing had to face another disaster without feeling betrayed by Empress Seo, who abandoned her duties and left her duty, avoiding responsibility for her strategic misjudgment.

“I received a report of a suspected boxer! Follow me!”

“我不是！没有！ (I am not a boxer! No!)”

“What is this monkey cub saying? Follow!”

“父亲！没关系，进去！ (Father! I’ll be okay, so please go in!)”

Allied troops entering Beijing made reckless arrest and plunder in the name of finding the remnant of the boxers.

The commander, Balderze, was of no use even though he ordered the troops to be ruled by military law.

In fact, he was a commander, and he was more like a coordinator who actually coordinated disagreements between countries, rather than exercising command.

“This is silver and silk, and hehehe. If this expedition is over, can I just dismiss it?”

“Hey! That’s what I saw first! Can’t you put it down there and turn it off?”

“I’ll say this motherfucker, huh? You’re the one who catches first. What bullshit are you talking about, huh?”

No matter how deteriorated, Beijing, the capital of the Qing Dynasty, where goods sent from every corner of the enormous midfield were piled up, was enough to make the soldiers’ eyes turned away.

Reports of quarrels among soldiers poured into the military police headquarters of the Allied Military Administration in Beijing, saying that the day was far away.

Although the assault and looting of the Chinese were not handled, the work of the military police was paralyzed.

In particular, this tendency was more severe in the German Imperial Army, the reason that could be found in the current German Empire’s lord Wilhelm II.

At the beginning of the Boxer Movement, the Qing Dynasty government had said that it would not fulfill its duty to protect the legionaries and that each legionnaire should take care of its own safety from the mob.

Then, when Baron Kettiller, a German construction company, who had been going to meet Empress Seo to protest this, was murdered, Wilhelm II’s fury pierced the sky.

As Japan was struck by an injustice while trying to spread its wings, and the wings were broken and cut off, Wilhelm II did not openly advocate “Theory of Hwanghwa” (the theory that Asians will challenge world hegemony), but in his mind, “Asians The perception that it is a race that must be stepped on whenever there is an opportunity has not changed.

[I am convinced that you, the proud soldiers of the German Empire, will not forget the death of Baron Kettiller only if you are torn to pieces and killed by those wicked and savage mobs. More than anyone else, he was faithful to his office and hopes that the barbarians who killed him, who had been a diplomat to the great Germans, would pay the price. They are less than civilized beings, barbarians, and you will not have to feel any guilt.]

When the German soldiers heard the speech of Wilhelm II, named “Hun speech,” the German soldiers were not hesitant.

Didn’t their lord even say it? They say they are not civilized.

In the midst of such a situation, the Han Chinese officials, led by Hong-Jang Lee, who left the powers as Empress Seo fled, tried to reduce the looting and assaults that are taking place by somehow making peace with the Allied Forces.

However, due to the deliberate disregard and rejection of each country, it seemed that the smoke rising in Beijing would not stop for the time being.

Perhaps the time to end the war and reach an agreement with each other may be longer than the time when the war, which was unlikely like this war, took place.

This is because each of the great powers stationed in Beijing had different mindsets.

In addition, even though Beijing was captured, the number of legislators remaining in various places was still quite large. This is because the Allied forces did not traverse each province of China and beat the boxers.

Their goal was to rescue those staying at the legislature in Beijing and at the same time cut off the relationship between the Qing Dynasty government and the boxers, which was inevitable.

Although Beijing and other North China regions were groaning with the powers and the remaining boxers, Manchuria was having a relatively calm time.

It was thanks to the security of the troops advancing to Russia on the pretext of fearing the railway would be damaged.

In the beginning, it was close to a militia, mainly composed of hunters and poachers from Cossacks, not regular troops, but thanks to the open trans-Siberian railroad, a trained regular army was able to deploy in Manchuria at a rapid pace.

[Although the Manchuria region is a foreign land, criminals related to the public should be punished at the same level as those committed at home.]

The Tsar’s words when deciding to send troops to the Manchurian region implied the meaning of which country Manchuria would belong to.

The Russian army’s massive South Korea did not stop in Manchuria.

Russia, which was implicitly recognized for its involvement in Joseon, was unstoppable in exchange for conceding its stake in the Congo goods that would fall out of the Qing Dynasty after the protests were over.

[Japan, which has committed an illegal aggression against Joseon without a declaration of war or any justification in the midst of the world’s attention to the Qing Dynasty, should immediately withdraw all military forces from the Korean Peninsula. In addition, with compensation for the damage caused by this aggression, measures to prevent this from happening again must be carried out. If not, I would not hesitate to do anything necessary to take action to carry out the foregoing, as a friend of the Crown Prince and the monarch of the Russian Empire.]

Instead of the king of Joseon who abandoned Hanyang and ran away, it wasn’t just the Daeso Shinryo who secretly escaped Hanyang with him next to the prince who returned with the letter of the Tsar.

Over 30,000 Russian regular troops were guarding him.

At first, it could not be said that the public sentiment toward the prince who fled with the king was not very good, but when he returned with such visible achievements, the people of Hanyang had no choice but to change their perception.

[It is said that the fact that the prince Hae-ja escaped from Hanyang did not actually escape, but that he wanted to somehow save Joseon. Look Didn’t you actually bring in the Imperial Army of Noseo? In addition, he said that he received not only independence but also a promise that No Seo-ah would stop it if any country attempts to invade Chosun in the future.]

After the Crown Prince entered Gyeongbokgung Palace again, rumors began to circulate in downtown Hanyang, where it was not known where it started again.

In the midst of these words coming and going, there was a little talk about where the king’s whereabouts-known as-who first left Hanyang and fled to the north -, but these words quickly entered.

“I am unavoidably lacking because of the great illness that the King was found while staying in Noseoa, and I am inadequately lacking in it, but I have been purged by proxy.

At the same time as he made this statement at the first language conference hosted by the Crown Prince, the story of Gojong, which had flowed out little by little, was no longer coming out when he took out Gojong’s school paper with the national bird on it.

And in Japan, after hearing this news, Russia is confining King Gojong and is trying to swallow Joseon with forged documents through threats, so they said to help them get rid of Russia, but the reaction inside the Joseon Dynasty was limited. I could organize it in sentences.

“What are those crazy guys saying?”

Although the Japanese words were at the heart of what is happening and were true, few Koreans were found sympathizing with the Japanese invading Joseon first, saying these words.

Even Japan’s outrageous talk was buried without any effect, so they too were forced to prepare for the final fight.

It is because it has already come too far to return.

The troops and supplies that were somehow squeezed came in through the port of Busan, which is still occupied by Japan.

“After all, we have to prove that we are not easy opponents by doing the most damage to the Russian army anyway. Every time we kill a Russian soldier here today, the burden of their landing on the mainland will increase, and each more day we endure, the sentence on the entry into the peace treaty with them will change. The main building is not going to tell you that you have to survive, unfortunately. Perhaps none of us in this position are lucky enough to live and step on our homeland. But this is not meaningless death. Through your deaths, leave a spark for the future and tomorrow of your country. request.”

Russia, which watched Japan’s preparations for a decisive battle, also increased troops one after another, but the conflict between the two countries began somewhere other than land.

bang!

“Sue, the transport ship… … .”

The Japanese Empire’s transport fleet, which had been struggling to rebuild the navy due to the Sino-Japanese War and the cut-off funds since then, continued dangerous voyages without a small frigate.

And these weaknesses were being bitten by the Russian Far East Fleet.

“Left distance 5,000! They’re getting out! How do you do it, Captain! Shall we chase?”

“… … If we leave here, other guys will flock to the gap. Can not help it. To keep the current course.”

Somehow, the few newly built warships appeared from afar and were unable to pursue and destroy the Russian Far East fleet, which fleeed only after attacking transport ships.

It couldn’t be said that the supply line was long, but it was the current situation of the Japanese Imperial Navy that was struggling to defend even this.

Supply ships were threatened at sea and the Russian imperial army was gradually narrowing the siege on land.

Ito felt intuition that the end had come.

At first, the Japanese soldiers were swept up by the above-mentioned sense of mission and pledged to fight for the decision, but morale was forced to decline as days of being unable to eat properly in the hostile surrounding environment due to the looting during the march toward Hanyang.

Finally, when the Imperial Russian army shifted away from maintaining the siege and turned to offensive, the Japanese line of defense rapidly collapsed.

On the day the news came that all other regions except the Gyeongnam region were in the hands of the Russian Imperial Army, Ito quietly left the house.

The place where his steps were headed was the Imperial Palace.
