Chapter 458

After entering 1866
The situation in Europe, which had not been stable for a long time, suddenly became tense. In order to compete for the leadership of the German nation and the states, the struggle between the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia intensified, and it has reached the point of daggers.

On the land of China

The troops of the Manchu and Qing government, together with the foreign guns, are frantically besieging and suppressing the remnants of the Taiping Army, and have won a series of major victories, stabilizing the situation in the southeastern coastal provinces, and seeing the dawn of peace again after more than ten years of war.

The "Chu Army" under the command of Zuo Zongtang, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang Province, has greatly increased its combat effectiveness after obtaining a batch of foreign guns and cannons.

In view of the strength of the Chu army, it was rumored in the Qing court that Zuo Zongtang would be reused as the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, and lead the Chu army to suppress the Nian rebellion that was raging in the two provinces and reshape the government.

Fusang Islands

The war between the reformists and the shogunate army intensified, and the bloody and tragic war continued...

After suffering several disastrous failures in a row, Satsuma and Changzhou formed the "Sachang Alliance" in an attempt to change the state of disunity in which they were fighting each other, and unified dispatch and command of the army to face the shogunate army, and achieved immediate results.

The "Sajang Alliance" supported by the United Kingdom and the Netherlands revived and fought with the shogunate army supported by Tang and France. The rise of killing both sides is difficult to see for a while.

Three Civil Wars in Central America

The civil war has entered its fifth year, and the once prosperous towns are now in ruins. The massive human trafficking has led to a serious loss of women and children, and there are many bones in the wilderness in the suburbs...

After the Spring Festival (Year of Boshin) in 1866, in line with the friendly desire to maintain the stability and long-term peace of Central America, 3.4 troops of the Tang Empire stationed in Zhennan Province, Channel Province, Costa Rica Province and other neighboring provinces entered Central America in batches Three Kingdoms, carrying out the tasks of eliminating local armed forces and restoring social order.

Wherever the army passed, it was like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. In just over a month, they had completely controlled the situation.

The remaining work is to completely wipe out the criminal bandits and thugs, various local tribal armed forces, establish a stable social order foundation for the upcoming Chinese new immigrants, and clean up the old country from scratch.

Part of its territory is included in the province of Costa Rica, and the rest will be more than 22 square kilometers after the merger, which will establish the Central Plains Province, the largest in Central America.

The so-called names such as Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua will gradually disappear in the long river of history, and the registration of relevant historical documents is only a passing mention.

It records that these small countries in Central America were once the continuation of indigenous civilizations in Central America. Under the impact of modern civilization, they merged with Chinese immigrants and moved towards a more civilized and prosperous modern society together...

in the process

There will definitely be some dark and even bloody incidents in ethnic conflicts, but in the vast history, they are just insignificant disturbances, which disappear as soon as they arise, and there is no need to waste pen and ink to repeat them...

Everything should look forward!

Battle of Toba Fushimi
The "Edo rice riot" at the end of 1865 spread rapidly across the country. The shogunate army launched a bloody suppression without hesitation.

Facing the domestic crisis
Relying on the strong support of the Tang Empire, General Tokugawa Yoshiki of the shogunate received a large amount of food and weapons support, and decided to adopt the strategy of "advancing through retreat", namely;
In view of the massive domestic "Curtain Fall Movement", he simply resigned from the position of the general, abolished the shogunate, a ruling institution that had existed for thousands of years, and changed it to the name of "the chief speaker of the feudal vassals", essentially still holding the power to govern the country.

In this way, the power of the Wushe family has not been left behind, and it has echoed the calls of all parties to "turn down the curtain". Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

Therefore, the imperial court planned to call the feudal lords with more than [-] shi to come to Kyoto for a meeting to discuss this matter intensively.

The lords of the southwestern feudal lords are not fools, and they saw through General Mufu's donkey egg strategy at a glance. Both the anti-murder faction and the supporter faction dominated by the "Sajang Alliance" mobilized large armies and formed in Toba Fushimi, northwest of Kyoto. confrontational situation.

An unprecedentedly tragic large-scale battle is inevitable.

High on the hills, the battle flags are flying.

It was March, when the harsh winter had just faded away. It was warm and cold, and the cold wind blowing across the hills and fields was blowing on my body, which was very chilly.

In the open field, the winter wheat that had just grown more than half a foot long was trampled down by the army in large numbers, and the ground was in a mess.

The two sides facing each other are the anti-puppet army mainly composed of the "Sa Long Alliance", with a total of more than 9100 people from the seven feudal clans, known as an army of [-].

The crowd of steppers was lined up with flags on their backs. The flags fluttered fiercely in the cold wind, and the murderous aura was surging against the sky. It looked really spectacular.
