    The rapid expansion of western Sichuan has also exposed many problems. The army is spread too far and there are so many places to be stationed, which makes the number of troops invested on the front line of Shanhaiguan very limited.  The four divisions and two cavalry corps currently concentrated in Shanhaiguan are almost the largest number of troops that Western Sichuan can invest.  Unless the expanded new troops replace the old troops, reinforcements can be carried out in the direction of Shanhaiguan.

    ? 4 divisions plus two cavalry corps, a total of only 150,000 people.  Although the eight divisions that attacked Shanhaiguan with the Japanese army only had 150,000 troops.  At this time, the establishment of the Japanese Army field divisions included 12 infantry brigades in each field division (8 brigades in the Guards Division), 3 cavalry squadrons, and 6 artillery squadrons (4 field artillery squadrons, 2 mountain artillery squadrons, and the Guards Division).  There are only 4 squadrons of field artillery), 2 squadrons of engineers (1 squadron of the Guards Division), attached agencies and baggage.  The total number of personnel is 18,492 (12,095 Guards), 5,633 horses (4,211 Guards), 9,600 combat infantry (5,760 Guards), 303 cavalry, 24 field artillery, and 12 mountain artillery (the Guards Division has no mountain artillery).  It is not a huge division like the more than 28,000 men per permanent division during World War II.  The strength of the two sides was almost equal, but the Western Sichuan Army's artillery had the advantage. It was still on the defensive and could rely on strong defenses.  However, the Japanese army has a total of nearly 400,000 troops in North Korea and Liaodong, which has exhausted almost all the troops in Japan. If the attack does not go smoothly and the Japanese army increases its troops again, it will also cause great damage to the Western Sichuan Army.  pressure.  Especially after the failure of the Japanese Navy, the Japanese Army is likely to launch a more ferocious attack to restore the decline.  This makes the Western Sichuan Army must mobilize troops as soon as possible and be prepared to reinforce Shanhaiguan.

    There are also big problems in terms of logistical supplies.  Although the Manchu and Qing Dynasties developed Westernization for several years, their road construction was far from comparable to that of Western Sichuan.  This put great pressure on the logistics of the front-line troops. Even if the military rations were purchased and confiscated from the Qing Dynasty's official granaries, it still put great pressure on the logistics department of the Western Sichuan Army.

    The last point is the talent needed.  With so much territory expanded at once, Western Sichuan requires a large number of government workers to manage it.  Even though Western Sichuan has deliberately carried out reserves in the past two years, the gap is still very large.  As a last resort, we had to recruit talented people from the society again, and at the same time, we retained some Manchu officials with acceptable conduct and so on.

    Although there are many problems, overall, development is accelerating in a good direction.  After unifying the country, Western Sichuan will once again make a leap and realize the transformation from cocoon to butterfly.  When the newly occupied areas develop, China will surely become one of the world powers.

    It was already late at night when he returned from the Prime Minister's Office to inspect the Ambassador's Office, but Wang Yuze's spirit was also high.  The Manchu Qing Dynasty was destroyed. After defeating Japan, it was time to establish a new political power.  So, does this also mean that he will ascend the supreme throne?  In China today, the concept of imperialism is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Although there are a very small number of people who advocate democracy and republic, in the eyes of the vast majority of people, this is simply nonsense. If China does not have an emperor, will it still be China?  After more than two thousand years of feudal society, the Chinese people have become accustomed to having an emperor. Only in this way can the country's strength be gathered to the maximum extent and develop in the direction Wang Yuze hopes.  Especially for the world war twenty years later, China needs to be fully prepared. It will be an opportunity to completely change China.

    "Emperor! Perhaps, by the second half of the year, he will be able to ascend the throne!" Wang Yuze sat alone in the study and murmured.  Every man wants to live the kind of life of "waking up to hold the power of the world, being drunk and lying on the lap of a beautiful woman", not to mention the kind of propaganda that has always been about the emperor's harem with three palaces, six courtyards and seventy-two concubines.  Wang Yuze did not deny that he was full of yearning for the emperor's life.  However, in order for China to develop better, he will not become the emperor of China. During his lifetime, he will slowly carry out democratic reforms. By the time of his next generation, he will be able to implement a constitutional monarchy.  In this way, the royal family can continue for generations to come.

    "Squeak!" Suddenly, the door of the study room was opened, and a delicate little face came in from the outside.

    "Master, it's already so late? Aren't you going back to sleep?" The person who came was none other than Wang Yuze's personal maid Xiang'er. In the blink of an eye, it had been five years since Wang Yuze returned to this world. This little girl Xiang'er also  She has grown into a tall and graceful girl.  Looking at Xiang'er's maturing body, Wang Yuze couldn't help but feel a little hot in his heart.

    He still remembered that when they got married, he promised this little girl that he would marry her in the future.  But in recent years, too many things have happened, leaving him with very little time at home, so this matter has been delayed.

    "Xianger, did Madam ask you to come to me?" Wang Yuze asked with a smile.

    "Several ladies have already gone to bed. It's Xiang'er who is worried about you."?, I just came to look for you!  Xiang'er said with a smile.

    "Oh, I just went to the Prime Minister's Office and I'm just back now. Xiang'er, come here and talk to me!" Wang Yuze said to Xiang'er.

    Without any hesitation, Xiang'er moved lightly and came to Wang Yuze's side.  However, Wang Yuze hugged her soft waist and held her on his lap.

    "Ah!" Xiang'er didn't expect Wang Yuze to be like this, and her face suddenly turned red, almost bleeding.

    "Xiang'er, I've suffered so much for you these years, are you a monster?" Wang Yuze asked, holding Xiang'er's little face in his hands, breathing in the fragrance coming from her body.

    "Xiang'er is not bitter. As long as she can stay with the young master, Xiang'er will be satisfied." Xiang'er said with red eyes.  Originally, she thought Wang Yuze had forgotten the original agreement, but she didn't expect that Wang Yuze still remembered it.  She knew that Wang Yuze was a man who did important things and did not have much time to care about his children's personal affairs.  So she waited.

    "Little fool, the young master has been too busy these years. Now the Manchu Qing Dynasty has been destroyed by us. After defeating the Japanese, we will unify the country. Then the young master will be free!" Wang Yuze said.

    "Master, can I ask you a question?" Xiang'er asked hesitantly.

    "Ask, no matter what you ask, the young master will answer you!" Wang Yuze said affirmatively.

    "They said that after the young master defeated the Manchu Qing Dynasty, he would become the emperor, right?" Xiang'er raised her head and looked at Wang Yuze with admiration.

    "Yes, after defeating the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the young master will become the emperor. However, Xiang'er will also be the young master's concubine then!" Wang Yuze said with a smile.

    "Ah! Xiang'er doesn't want to be a concubine, Xiang'er can just continue to be a girl for the young master!" Xiang'er said.

    "Haha! It won't be up to you then. When I become the emperor, what I say will be the imperial edict. Do you still dare to resist the edict?" Wang Yuze said with a laugh.  Looking at Xiang'er's bright red lips, he couldn't help lowering his head and kissed her.

    "Hmm!" Xiang'er was stunned, without any reaction, completely letting Wang Yuze do what he did.

    Gradually, Wang Yuze changed his target, leaving a series of red marks from his lips to Xiang'er's delicate face and smooth neck.  His hands were not idle either. He got into Xiang'er's gauze skirt and stroked her skin as smooth as milk.

    Xiang'er buried her head motionless in Wang Yuze's arms, letting him do whatever he did.  She knew that this day would come sooner or later, and she had been waiting for it for several years, and now, she finally got her wish.

    Wang Yuze picked up Xiang'er and came to the boat in the study.  In Wang Yuze's study, there is a small boat.  When he is tired, he can lie down on it.  But now, it comes in handy.

    Wang Yuze put Xiang'er on the bed. Xiang'er closed her eyes tightly and did not dare to look at Wang Yuze.  Wang Yuze smiled slightly and reached out to remove Xiang'er's clothes. After a moment, a delicate body like mutton-fat white jade appeared in front of him.  Wang Yuze's mind started to heat up, and he took off his clothes and pants in three strokes and rushed forward.

    The small bed made a creaking sound under the load, and as the two people on the bed swayed, the sound became louder and louder.  Together with the gasps and moans from the two people on the bed, the room was filled with excitement.

    Although Wang Yuze has not officially become the emperor, he has already begun to enjoy the tenderness of his concubine.

    Unlike Wang Yuze who is dreaming of an emperor, Japan is in gloom and gloom.  When the combined fleet went south to find a decisive battle with the Western Sichuan Navy, the whole of Japan had great hopes for them.  Even if news came from China that the Japanese combined fleet had been comprehensively attacked, it was considered a rumor by the Japanese government and people.  However, on the night of April 29, the Japanese finally clearly understood the current situation.  The combined fleet, which they regarded as invincible, really failed. Only two of the twelve powerful warships that went out for the expedition came back, and one of them was seriously injured.

    Heihachiro Togo, Chief of Staff of the Japanese Combined Fleet, stood on the front deck of the "Chiyoda" and looked at the Sasebo Naval Port getting closer and closer, his heart full of sadness.  Although he left the battlefield early on the "Chiyoda", it didn't take much to think about what would happen to the combined fleet when it faced the main force of the Western Sichuan Navy.  But this time he became a shameful deserter.  He felt that he should commit seppuku and die as an apology.  However, Ito Yuheng's instructions forced him to endure the humiliation and survive.  Although the Japanese Combined Fleet failed this time, the Japanese Navy has not yet failed. They still have a chance to rise again.

    At 8 pm on April 29, the "Chiyoda" and the severely damaged "Yoshino" returned to Sasebo.Hong Kong.
