The emperor of the Great Japanese Empire, the emperor who saved the world, shows your loyalty and courage: I am here to declare war on the Qing Dynasty, and I have a division suitable for me to fight against the Qing Dynasty by land and sea and strive to achieve the national goals. If it does not violate public international law, it means doing everything possible and by all means. However, I have been here for more than 20 years since I acceded to the throne. What I seek is to turn civilization into peaceful governance. It is impossible to make friends with neighbors, and strive to make all departments friendly forever. Fortunately, the exchanges between countries are getting more friendly every year. It was treacherous of me to entrust the Korean incident to the Qing Dynasty. North Korea was the first independent country inspired by the empire to communicate with other countries, while the Qing Dynasty called North Korea a vassal country and interfered in its internal affairs. Because of its civil strife, it sent troops to North Korea on the pretext of saving the vassal state. According to the Meiji Treaty of 15, I sent troops to prepare for regime change, which saved North Korea from disaster forever and ensured public security in the future. In order to maintain the overall peace in East Asia, I sued Qing for cooperation for the first time, but Qing refused. The empire then suggested that North Korea reform its political system, strengthen the foundation of public security at home and become an independent country abroad. Although North Korea agreed, the Qing government always tried every means to obstruct it and used various excuses to delay the opportunity, so as to use rectification as land and water reserves. Once it succeeds, it wants to realize its wish by force. It is extremely arrogant to send soldiers to South Korea to attack our ships in Han Hai. The plan to clear the country is only to make North Korea's public security foundation go back. Examining the status that North Korea gained because the empire took the lead in linking it with an independent country, and ignoring the treaties expressed for this purpose, thus damaging the interests of the empire and making peace in East Asia never guaranteed. Knowing what it has done, its strategy is to sacrifice peace from the beginning to meet its expectations. At this point, although I have always valued peace, I have to declare war in order to publicize the glory of the empire at home and abroad. Lai you has the loyalty and courage of many people, and the period will be peaceful forever, with the glory of the whole empire.
