March 13, 1886

Under the threat of large-scale troops, the "blazing of Nagasaki incident" finally ended by signing a peace treaty between the two sides, known in history as the "Nasaki Treaty" and also known as the "Nasaki Seventeen Rules".

The signing of the treaty was a milestone in the history of the Fuso Kingdom.

Since the Edo period, the Fuso Kingdom has strengthened its national strength through the Meiji Restoration, opened up people's wisdom, and worked tirelessly to seek independence and independence, and experienced more twists and turns and difficulties.

The establishment of a concession in Nagasaki was regarded as a landmark event, causing it to fall back into the abyss of semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. After Britain and Queensland joined forces to take the lead, European and American powers flocked to come, signing various treaties to establish concessions, becoming the country among the country of Fuso...

A year later

France, Germany, the United States, Italy and Russia successively signed treaties with the Fuso Kingdom to establish concessions. In addition, the British Concession was the culprit. A total of six countries established concessions in Fuso, covering Tokyo, Nagasaki and Okinawa.

After the signing of the treaty, the Queensland fleet evacuated Nagasaki, leaving only a 320 army unit stationed in the Hirado District Concession in Nagasaki. The United Kingdom drew an armed guard of more than 400 people from India and Weihai Guard to the concession and took the lead in forming the Concession Management Department.

The British Concession covers an area of ​​more than 6,000 acres, making it the largest among the concessions of various countries. It includes more than ten surrounding towns with Tangren Town as the core, and occupies one-third of the territory of the entire Nagasaki area.

The Queensland Fleet was leased by Okinawa as its home port for 99 years. The heavy cruiser "White Tiger" led an elite fleet to settle in. The Commander of the Zhao Jiaxiong was transferred to the commander of the Okinawa Guard Area, with more than 1,400 elite infantry under his command responsible for maintaining public order in the area.

In accordance with the treaty

The Fusang Kingdom should have released the detained King Shang Tai of Ryukyu, but he played a trick. King Shang Tai, who was already ill in bed, suddenly died. Only the coffin returned to Okinawa, and was greeted by local people along the way.

In a furious manner, the Chief of the Navy's General Staff abandoned the "Okinawa" that had just been renamed in 1979, and renamed the place "Ryukyu". The Okinawa Guardian District was also renamed the Ryukyu Guardian District, and ordered the Japanese side to hand over the Ryukyu Kingdom Prince Guiren and his family and repatriate them to the Shuri Castle Palace on a auspicious day.

Under the strong pressure of the Queensland fleet, the Japanese side dared not speak out, so they could only grit their teeth and endure this tone.

Neither acknowledge nor agree to the Okinawa name change, which laid the groundwork for future disputes.

After the bombardment of Nagasaki incident, it brought three major direct influences.

The first is the diplomatic team of the Dutch East Indies Governor's Office who was visiting Queensland. It quickly concluded a friendly trade treaty with Queensland. In order to show sincerity, the Dutch side voluntarily withdrew from Borneo without condition and handed over the occupied area to Queensland.

As for the conditions for marriage, I didn't mention it at all, I was simply scared.

The second one is Gu Yanchuan, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, who was originally attacked by the court ruler and sent by the Westernization Minister and was in a precarious position, turned the tables in a blink of an eye and was praised by the court and was awarded the title of "the first-rank crown prince Taibao walking forward". Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty personally wrote a picture of "The Pillar of the South", which was the Holy Family.

Based on the Guangdong-Guangxi region, Gu Yanchuan vigorously sacked the Green Camp soldiers with low combat effectiveness and successively trained a new army of more than 40,000 people. All of its members came from the Chiying School. They were divided into five armies in front, back, left and right, and each sent capable generals to command them. They became an elite army in the south, with their combat effectiveness as a standout.

As a result, the Qing Dynasty formed a three-legged stalemate with the "Huai Army" in the north, the "Xiang Army" in the middle, and the "Guangdong Army" in the south. Gu Yanchuan, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, deeply cultivated the Lingnan region and formed a strong strength.

The third is that the Portuguese, who were tensely confronted thousands of miles away, were afraid and showed obvious signs of retreat.

Mid-April 1886

Africa, Mozambique

The region is located in southeastern Africa. The southern border is the South Africa region belonging to the United Kingdom. On the east side, it is across the Mozambique Strait and across the sea from the Kingdom of Madagascar. The Mozambique Strait is 1,670 kilometers long and is the longest strait in the world. The coastline of the Sambique region is more than 2,600 kilometers long, half of the plateau and mountainous areas and plains, with abundant rainfall and lush vegetation.

The vast Zambezi River

Li Shuanzhu rode on his horse and looked into the distance. Behind him were more than 20 cavalry guards from the regiment guard company. At the end of his sight was a settlement established by the Portuguese in the 18th century, an Enzo town of about a thousand people. The town has more than 60 Portuguese garrisons, almost the size of one strengthened platoon.

Behind him

A large-scale emerging town is under construction. It is named Hekou Town. It is a triangle area where the lower reaches of the Zambezi River flow into the sea. Its geographical location is extremely important.

Rows of wooden stilt houses were quickly built, and a large number of black slaves worked hard on the construction site, consolidated the foundation, built sewer pipes with bricks and stones, paved roads, built docks, houses, and barracks fortresses. A lively construction scene.

In Africa

The main force of construction is naturally black slaves. Hekou Town, as the headquarters of the African Expeditionary Force, has its main population composition: the army and black slaves, and a small number of Arab women.

It has been nearly three months since its war on January 22.

The mainstream during this period was confrontation and construction. Although the Portuguese were extremely angry and it was inevitable that they would swear words, the two sides did not fire a single shot and maintained tacit restraint.

Faced with the Queensland army armed to the teeth, the Portuguese army, which had a disadvantage in the local population, really had no good way to drive it away.

Unlike the previous small-scale invasion attempts by Britain, France and the Dutch, the Queensland army has launched a large-scale crossing of the sea, which is obviously inevitable.

What made the Portuguese particularly difficult was that the Queensland army that occupied the Zambezi River Basin not only fired the Red Mountain Dragon flag, but also fired the British rice flag, showing that the invasion was not as simple as it was.

The Portuguese Governor General's Office has a total of about 4,200 troops under the Portuguese East Africa Governor's Office and has about 30,000 local tribal armed forces in Africa. This is already a very powerful military force for the Mozambique region, which has a total population of only more than 1.4 million.

However, this amount of troops is placed in the Mozambique region with an area of ​​millions of square kilometers (including Lake Malawi and its surrounding areas, which are more vast than later Mozambique). The Portuguese can only occupy a few key points, and most areas maintain the state of primitive tribalism.

After the vanguard of the African Expeditionary Force arrived, it quickly occupied the fertile alluvial plains mainly in the lower reaches of the Zambezi River. As many as nine strongholds were established in the Land War regiment alone. Hekou Town is the largest among them, adjacent to the Portuguese Enzo Town. The two formed a staggered situation where you have me and I have you have you, and you have you, and they have you, and they have you, and they have you, and they have you, and they have you, constantly rubbing against each other.

Most of the time, the Portuguese suffered losses and retreated.

The Zambezi River Basin is just a region in Mozambique, with an area of ​​nearly 200,000 square kilometers. The Portuguese have less than 900 troops in the area, and are scattered in multiple fixed sites, facing thousands of Queensland soldiers armed to their teeth.

You must be unable to beat it, and even scolding the other party can't understand it, which is equivalent to playing the piano against a cow.

"Sir, a Portuguese are here."

Hearing the report of his soldiers, Li Shuanzhu raised his telescope and looked, and drove out of Enzo's town, one, two and three fast horses. The first one was a strong Portuguese middle-aged white man. Li Shuanzhu had dealt with this man many times, and both sides were not unfamiliar with him.

This person is the local "Barazo" named Juan Carlos. This is a name that has ruined the streets in the Portuguese-speaking area, equivalent to the Chinese Wang Qiang, Ang Lee, and Liu Ergou.

The so-called "Barazo" system is similar to the "Karazo" system of the Dutch, and is widely used in the Portuguese area. It has formed a unique colonial system in Brazil, Portuguese Angola, Guinea-Bissau, Portuguese East Africa and other places. It is the colonial governor authorized by the Portuguese royal family to appoint white Portuguese people who occupy a large amount of African land as "Barazo", and manage various affairs instead of the local chiefs. It has the right to traffic local natives into slavery and forced labor. It is the de facto local emperor.
