Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Regarding Daxia's sinking of the Sakura Kingdom's armored ship on the Senkaku Islands.

The next day, Sakura's Ministry of Foreign Affairs lodged a serious protest against Daxia and asked Daxia to give a reasonable explanation.

The response from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Daxia Empire was extremely simple. It just told Sakura Country that the Imperial Navy sank an armored ship of unknown forces within the Senkaku Islands.

For the safety of fishermen in the waters, the empire has the right to sink this ironclad ship.

And now, the Sakura Kingdom claims that the ship belongs to their Sakura Kingdom, so the Empire must ask the Sakura Kingdom why the ship belonging to the Sakura Kingdom appears in the Imperial waters.

Regarding the Daxia Empire's rhetorical question, Sakura Kingdom didn't know how to answer it for a moment.

If it is said that the waters of the Senkaku Islands are the territorial waters of the Sakura Kingdom, the spokesperson of the Sakura Kingdom thought with his buttocks and knew that the last sentence of the Daxia Empire said that the Senkaku Islands belong to Daxia.

Then the two countries fell into endless pull.

However, as the spokesperson of Sakura's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, even he himself was very reluctant to do such useless work with Daxia on this matter.

But he has to do it because it is also his duty.

However, it would not work to directly say that the sea area belongs to Sakura Country, so he can only say that the sea area is a disputed sea area.

Therefore, this matter requires Daxia and Sakura Country to sit down and discuss the ownership of the Senkaku Islands.

The main reason why Sakura Country has such a statement that the Senkaku Islands are disputed islands is also because of the former Fuso Country.

Before Sakura Kingdom was defeated by Daxia, Sakura annexed Ryukyu Kingdom.

Therefore, from the perspective of Sakura Country, Ryukyu is part of their Sakura Country.

Although the Sakura Kingdom was later defeated, Kyushu Island was forcibly taken away from the territory by Daxia and the Fuso Kingdom was established.

At the same time, the Ryukyu Kingdom was restored.

After the Ryukyu Kingdom was restored, it gave up the Senkaku Islands to Daxia and gave up the Senkaku Islands forever.

Let me say one more thing here. In fact, a hundred years ago, the Ryukyu Kingdom also raised the ownership issue with Daxia because of the Senkaku Islands.

It's just that at that time, Daxia thought that the Senkaku Islands were just a small island, a desert island that was not allowed to be inhabited, so he didn't care.

The Ryukyu Kingdom originally relied on Daxia to survive, so after mentioning it once or twice, it turned out that Daxia did not explicitly say that the island was given to him, so the Ryukyu Kingdom did not dare to directly go to the island and say that the island belonged to him.

It can actually be seen here that Ryukyu is the type of a good baby. If your father doesn't tell you to give it to you, he won't want it.

Very obedient and sensible.

Therefore, because of this, the ownership of the Senkaku Islands was shelved for a hundred years, until the decline of Daxia, and the Ryukyu Kingdom was annexed by the Sakura Kingdom.

After annexing Ryukyu Kingdom, Sakura Kingdom decided that everything in Ryukyu Kingdom belonged to him.

Even if there is no clear ownership of the Senkaku Islands, they belong to him.

Therefore, after the Ryukyu Kingdom was annexed, the Sakura Kingdom declared that the Senkaku Islands belonged to the Sakura Kingdom.

Later, Daxia defeated the Sakura Kingdom, divided the Sakura Kingdom into two, established the Fuso Kingdom, and restored the Ryukyu Kingdom.

The edict that selected the Ryukyu Kingdom for restoration stipulated that the territorial scope of the Ryukyu Kingdom before 1879 should be restored.

This territorial scope includes the current territory of the Ryukyu Kingdom plus the Senkaku Islands.

Daxia has always been tolerant towards the Ryukyu Kingdom, because history has proven the Ryukyu Kingdom's loyalty to the Central Plains Dynasty.

Therefore, even after Lin Yi took power, Daxia still did not say that he would establish the ownership of the Senkaku Islands.

The reason why Lin Yi did this is also very simple, that is, the fishery near the Senkaku Islands is very rich.

Lin Yi felt that there was no need for Daxia to be so harsh in dealing with loyal vassals like Ryukyu.

After all, if you say that the Senkaku Islands belong to Daxia, then Ryukyu fishermen will not dare to fish there, which will inevitably reduce the income of some fishermen in the Ryukyu Kingdom.

To put it simply, Daxia’s territorial waters are vast, there is one more Senkaku Islands, and one less fishing ground on the Senkaku Islands. This is not a big problem, and the fishermen can still have enough to eat.

But for the small Ryukyu Kingdom, the loss of a fishing ground is destined to have a great impact.

As for the Ryukyu Kingdom, since the Ryukyu Kingdom needs the fishing grounds of the Senkaku Islands more than Daxia, why not just give them to the Ryukyu Kingdom.

The famous five-star marshal Lin Yi, prince of the Daxia Empire, once said that he would give up any inch of his country. That's all treason.

Therefore, in Lin Yi's opinion, people from the Ryukyu Kingdom can go fishing there, and the empire doesn't care.

But if you want the territorial ownership of the Senkaku Islands, then you have to wait for the revenge of the Daxia Empire. ,

The people of the Ryukyu Kingdom knew this very well, so they never mentioned it.

Later, with Daxia's connivance, Sakura Kingdom defeated Fuso Kingdom and brought Kyushu Island into its own sphere of influence.

Then as the strength of Sakura Country gradually recovered, they turned their attention to the Senkaku Islands.

Sakura Country is determined to use the Senkaku Islands to test Daxia's bottom line.

The excuse used by Sakura Country is that the agreement for Daxia to restore the Ryukyu Kingdom was signed with the traitorous Tokugawa family of Sakura Country and has no legal effect.

But Sakura Country is a peace-loving country. Now that the Ryukyu Kingdom has been restored, Sakura Country will not force the Ryukyu Kingdom to rejoin Sakura Country.

Then, on the other side of Sakura Country, the Ryukyu Kingdom was classified as a disputed area by Sakura Country.

As for the uninhabited Senkaku Islands, Sakura Country said that the islands should belong to them.

Daxia said in this regard that the Ryukyu Kingdom has existed since ancient times, and it is a vassal state of Daxia and a legal kingdom.

Therefore, even if there is a dispute, it is between Daxia and the Ryukyu Kingdom.

If Daxia wants to talk, he should talk to the king of the Ryukyu Kingdom, not the Sakura Kingdom.

Therefore, the current situation on the Senkaku Islands is very complicated.

Daxia has a good relationship with the Ryukyu Kingdom, and they are ready to develop it together.

But now suddenly a Sakura Country came out and said that the Senkaku Islands belong to him.

For Daxia, the only option was to fight.

Therefore, there was the subsequent scene where Daxia's fishing boats collided with Sakura Kingdom's fishing boats on the Senkaku Islands.

And when such a situation arises, do you think that without the support of the two countries, the fishing boats can collide?

It was still an iron-wrapped corner, which made a big hole.

And now, Sakura Country still has the nerve to come and question Daxia.

The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, who had been authorized by Lin Yi, directly mocked Sakura Country.

Since you said that the Senkaku Islands belong to your Sakura Country, and I also said that the Senkaku Islands belong to Daxia, neither of us can convince the other, so why don’t we just fight near the Senkaku Islands.

Whoever wins will get the Senkaku Islands.

And Daxia also wanted to have a fair duel with Sakura Country.

Hearing that Daxia wanted to have an offline collision with Sakura Country, Sakura Country immediately became scared.

Daxia dared to say that it was a fair fight, but the people of Sakura Country couldn't believe it.

Therefore, Sakura Country said that since there is a dispute over the Senkaku Islands, it should be shelved for now.

However, Daxia should compensate for the armored ship that Daxia sank and the damage caused.
