Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World

Seeing that the adjutant's eyes were red, Yusaku Uehara's anger gradually subsided and he said in a deep voice: "What about the remaining soldiers? Where are our artillery?"

"The artillery was captured by the God of War team. The remaining soldiers and reinforcements are outside Guluji Ridge. They are not acting rashly and are waiting for your instructions."

Hearing that all the artillery pieces were gone, Yusaku Uehara's forehead throbbed with veins.

He sighed: "If we attack overnight, maybe we still have a chance. At that time, Zhao Chuanxin and the God of War team were already at the end of their strength. Although our reinforcements were on their way, they were still physically strong compared to them. They might not be able to defeat them in one go. Exit. Now, there is no chance. Recall the army, and I will personally apologize to Commander Hasegawa..."

People all over Korea are staring at the news about the God of War team and the Japanese army.

You can't hide this kind of thing.

On the third day, newspapers spread the news about the God of War team throughout Seoul.

At this time, Korea was divided into three levels of administrative divisions: cities, counties, and myeon.

These newspapers slowly spread from Seoul to surrounding counties.

Park Zehu was drinking morning tea and reading current affairs with a newspaper.

The "Korean Daily Report" stated: William Carroll Will, the U.S. Minister to South Korea, visited the Lotus Temple and coincided with the battle between the Ares Team and the Japanese army in the mountains. The American envoy witnessed the battle. Zhao Chuanxin fought against 500 Japanese troops with one man, and then the Ares team joined in the hand-to-hand combat. The battle was brutal, with numerous casualties and casualties, and the scene was unbearable to watch. The Japanese army was finally defeated and retreated. The U.S. minister said that during the Russo-Japanese War, Tsarist Russian soldiers suffered from Japanphobia. Today there are Japanese troops who are suffering from fear of Zhao again. In addition, in this battle, the name of Gulujiling Meat Grinder may be passed down to Zhao Chuanxin for his martial prowess...

Park Zehu choked on his tea and coughed for a long time.

One man fighting 500 Japanese troops?

Is Japan suffering from "Zhaophobia"?

Gulujiling meat grinder?

The U.S. Minister to South Korea really dares to say that.

In fact, William Carroll Will was bragging on the one hand.

He witnessed a shitty fight, which was just made up to show off his courage during the interview.

Yankees like this tune, they like to brag about the kind of awesome stuff that shows off their manliness.

As for the number of Japanese troops, he heard about the total number of the Japanese company's leading troops and follow-up reinforcements, and then added a little exaggeration to the number.

To put it bluntly, this is bragging.

While bragging, he is also burying the Japanese.

Although Park Zehu couldn't believe the numbers in the newspaper, he at least knew that the Ares Team won this battle.

Putting down the newspaper, he looked pleased, feeling that the 100,000 yen was not wasted.

At least it's not like the previous investment, which was in vain and didn't cause much trouble.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't help but get up and pace back and forth.

"Zhao Chuanxin really has some tricks up his sleeve. I wonder how much of his business ability accounts for his fighting ability? Should I listen to him?"

In Qingyun Palace, Li Xi received the aggressive Ito Hirobumi in his office.

After Ito Hirobumi entered the door, he sat down on a chair and said with a serious face: "Your Majesty the Emperor, I am familiar with the connection between the palace and the thugs, and I have evidence in my hand that the palace provides funds to the thugs."

Li Xi's expression changed slightly.

After he was forced to abdicate, he originally wanted to call himself the "Supreme Emperor" in an attempt to continue to secretly control power.

However, this was rejected by Ito Hirobumi, who directly called him "Emperor".

In terms of details, Ito Hirobumi is very good at it.

Li Xi has been unable to contact Zhao Chuanxin and Park Seung-yeol recently, so he sent someone to secretly contact civilian volunteer activities and quietly provide anti-Japanese funds.

He said stubbornly: "I didn't."

Ito Hirobumi sneered: "Not only that, I also know that the Emperor has many secret envoys and secret telegrams with Koreans in Shanghai, Puchao and other places."

Puchao is Vladivostok.

Li Xi couldn't sit still now.

If you just lied to him with words before, he would be unable to refute what you said later.

But how would the Japanese know?

Could it be that the eunuchs and guards closest to him were also bribed by the Japanese?

What he didn't know was that Ito Hirobumi was secretly monitoring the telegrams from the Korean Royal Palace.

No matter what telegram he sends, it will definitely appear on Ito Hirobumi's desk immediately.

But Li Xi doesn't understand the tricks of this high-tech technology.

"You..." Li Xi was frightened, but still said stubbornly: "I didn't!"

The defense was very pale.

"Haha, His Majesty the Emperor, in order to ensure the safety of the Emperor from thugs, our Japanese police consultants will replace the security command of Qingyun Palace. From now on, the palace will implement a 'menjian' system, clear the palace ban, and there will be no unified supervision. Those who do not have tickets issued by the government are not allowed to enter the palace."

My Cao, Li Xi’s head buzzed.

Blood rushed to his head.

Ito Hirobumi wanted to cut off his connection with the anti-Japanese forces outside the palace, leaving him in an isolated and helpless situation.

Then he will have no chance to turn around.

At this time, Ito Hirobumi's secretary Taijiro Mori hurried in and said a few words in Ito Hirobumi's ear.

Ito Hirobumi stood up suddenly, turned his head and took a deep look at Li Xi, then turned and left.

Li Xi wanted to know what Taijiro Mori and Hirobumi Ito said.

Hundreds of claws scratch my heart, impatient to wait.

After Ito Hirobumi left, the little eunuch delivered today's newspaper.

Li Xi quickly picked it up, eager to see what happened.

He saw the news that Zhao Chuanxin and the God of War team defeated the Japanese at Guluji Ridge, and immediately stood up excitedly: "Okay, I know that Zhao Chuanxin will not let me down! Ito Hirobumi must have received a message from the Japanese army He was eager to leave only after hearing the news of the defeat.”

The more he looked, the happier he became and his face flushed.

The little eunuch comforted him: "Your Majesty, take care of your dragon body and don't get too excited."

Li Xi flipped through some more newspapers at the back.

There are also Japanese mouthpieces among them.

For example, the "National News" published by the pro-Japanese faction "Yi Jin Hui" has a completely different tone: Recently, the thug Zhao Chuanxin led a team of thugs to engage in a fierce battle with the Japanese army at Gulujiling. The mob suffered heavy casualties, and Zhao Chuanxin was seriously injured and was on his deathbed. The Japanese army retreated tactically, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback and defeat the mob in one fell swoop. The general trend is inevitable, and anyone who dares to stop it is like a mantis trying to block a chariot. Zhao Chuanxin's demise is imminent...

Li Xi's nose twitched, just like the reaction of some people in later generations after seeing online comments from people who were against his own camp. It was exactly the same.

"How unreasonable, actually ignoring the facts and confusing right and wrong..."

But as he looked at it, he thought of something and said to the little eunuch: "Quick, while Ito Hirobumi is in a state of distress, send someone out of the palace as soon as possible to spread the news that National News is confusing right and wrong."

He was afraid that this kind of report would really affect the people, and he wanted to go out and parade in person to give a speech.

When the young eunuch arrived at the door, Li Xi hurriedly stopped him: "Wait a minute, find someone else to find a way to contact Zhao Chuanxin, and say that the Japanese want to imprison me..."
