1825 My New Daming

Chapter 112 Japan's "dog luck" is coming? (Luo Luo asks for further reading, please collect it!)

Japan, Wenzheng nine years, December [-]th.

Outside Edo Castle, the residence of the Satsuma Domain.

According to the "Zhuge Calendar" commonly used in the entire East Asian cultural circle, today is the last working day before the New Year's Day.

From December 31st to the fifteenth day of the first month of the coming year, there are twenty or twenty-one days of annual holidays—yes, twenty or twenty-one days!Because according to the "Zhuge Calendar", there are 21 days from January to November in a year, and usually 21 days in December, and there will be December 30 every four years, so each year is 35 or 36 days.Although dates like December 365th and December 366th seem a bit strange, they were calculated by King Zhuge Wuzhong by counting his fingers, and they must be the most accurate.

Anyway, it has been like this for more than 100 years, and East Asia is used to it.Even Japan, which has never been quite right with Ming Dynasty, has long accepted the concept of 35 or 36 days in December.

Therefore, the last working day of the Tokugawa Shogunate is also December [-]th.After getting off work this day, the various execution offices of the shogunate were basically closed, and only some left-behind officials were on duty.

On the last day when the yamen is open, there is usually no business to do.Therefore, Shimadzu Qiliang, the staff officer of the Naval Enforcement Office, got off work early.However, after get off work, he was not the same as before. He went to Yoshiwara to drink flower wine with his colleagues in the execution office and fooled around until late at night before returning home.Instead, he returned early to the Satsuma Mansion in Sakurada, which is the home of Sailiang Shimadzu.

After returning home, Shimadzu Qiliang didn't go to talk about the New Year, but plunged into a secluded Japanese room in the deepest part of the mansion, and met the two mysterious guests who had been waiting there for a long time. Drink tea and talk together.

"Please rest assured, Mr. Feng Xing, as long as our Haitao team can know when Zhuge Weidao's ship will arrive at a certain port in Japan, we will make him disappear forever!"

The one who spoke was a ferocious Japanese ronin, with a big disheveled beard and a fierce gaze from one single eye. He looked so tall that he didn't look like a Japanese at all.His skin was tanned, and it was obvious that he was a person who had been traveling at sea all year round.

The "Haitao Team" in his mouth is a well-known Langshi organization in Japan and the waters around Japan.Most of its members are ronin from the shogunate navy, and most of them have the background of Satsuma.This "Haitao team" has a few refitted armed sailboats in their hands, and they are doing the job of "protecting shipping" in name, but in fact only God knows what they are doing.

Shimadzu Qiliang suddenly laughed, looked at the big one-eyed dragon warrior in front of him, and said, "Mr. Xixiang, did I ever say that I want to get rid of Zhuge Weidao?"

"Didn't he snatch the big black lady you liked?" The one-eyed dragon warrior with the Miao character "Xixiang" looked at Shimadzu and asked, "Don't you want to get rid of this person who stole your love with a knife?"

"It's just a woman," Shimadzu Qiliang said with a smile, "Why would I fight against the Zhuge family of Ming Dynasty for a woman?"

"Yes, sir, didn't you just say that the target is Zhuge Weidao's ship?"

Shimadzu nodded, "Yes, I said it but I didn't ask you to eradicate him! The reason why I chose his ship as the target was not because he took away the black sky, but just because His ship is the only cruiser of the Ming Dynasty Navy that I can confirm when and by which route it will arrive at Mito Port."

"What? Cruiser?" Cyclops Saigo was taken aback by Shimadzu's words.

The ships in his hands are just a few camouflaged assault ships, which are just enough to deal with merchant ships. Isn't it courting death for the Ming Navy cruiser?
"Yaoxi!" Shimadzu Qiliang nodded, "It is a cruiser. If the information I have is correct, it should be a Lushun class."

"Lushun class" Cyclops Xixiang's forehead was full of sweat, "That's a large cruiser with a displacement of 16 to 155 tons, and there are [-] [-]mm rapid-fire guns! To deal with such a cruiser, at least the Four Heavenly Kings Shall we go out?"

"Hahaha," Qiliang Shimadzu laughed, "I didn't expect Oni Saigo to be afraid sometimes!"

"My lord," Xixiang became a little anxious when he heard this, "Why are you afraid of death? It's just that death is as heavy as a mountain and as light as a feather."

Shimadzu Qiliang said seriously: "This operation does not require you to die. If you are really unfortunate enough to die in the operation, then I can guarantee that your death will be as heavy as Mount Tai! Because you are for the national destiny of our Japan and die!"

"Xixiang would like to hear the details."

Qiliang Shimadzu said in a low voice: "In the first month of next year, a formation of the British Royal Navy will arrive in Japan. They are here to instigate our country to be an enemy of Ming Dynasty!"

"Really?" Xixiang gritted his teeth, "Da Ming is the enemy of Japan, and no one needs to instigate it! The reason why Japan cannot rise is because of Da Ming's oppression!"

Hearing this, Shimadzu just smiled. Most of the samurai knew that the reason why Japan could not develop was because of Ming's oppression - this is also true!But what they don't know is that if Japan wants to develop, it can only rely on the support of Ming Dynasty, and it is impossible to count on the British Empire tens of thousands of miles away.

Because the British Empire is too far away, and the Ming Empire is too close. Moreover, the Ming Empire has strong national strength, and the possibility of being destroyed by the British Empire is almost zero.The future war with Britain is nothing more than whether it can grab valuable territory or whether it will lose a few pieces of territory that are beyond its reach. There is no possibility of being completely defeated by the British Empire.Even if the war is unfavorable, the basic market of East Asia and Southeast Asia can still be preserved.

After all, the population and industrial strength of the Ming Empire is the world's largest.

Therefore, if Japan acts as a pawn of Great Britain, the final result must be destruction!

Daming can't deal with Great Britain, but will he still be able to shovel Japan?

However, the outbreak of war between Great Britain and Ming Dynasty is still a good thing for Japan to reverse the country's fortune - Japan's "dog luck" is coming!

But how big this "dog luck" is, it still needs to be beaten.

And this "fighting" has something to pay attention to.

One of the best strategies is of course that the British and Daming start a fight, so that Japan can perform well without being beaten. If it can help Daming clean up the British, then it will be "good luck".

The medium strategy is Japan’s good fight against Daming, making Daming think that Japan is a fierce dog with high value of use, so the benefits are “great”—— Japan must be forced to attack the British and barbarians, and it must not be fed. full?The so-called emperor is not bad for a hungry dog!

As for the worst strategy, of course it was Japan who beat Da Ming until his head was covered in blood, and then he cried and begged for mercy. This dog is worthless.

As for surrendering without a fight, it would be too worthless. It is estimated that Daming will look down on Japan from the bottom of his heart, and he will still be a coolie and a kiln sister in the future.

Therefore, the ruling elites of Japan, such as Tokugawa Iezaki, Tokugawa Nariaki, and Shimadzu Qiliang, would rather let Japan be beaten than kneel without fighting-not afraid of being beaten, they are also ruthless dogs!

Shimadzu Qiliang looked at Xixiang who was indignant, and said in a very serious tone: "Although Xixiang Jun Daming oppressed us Japan, Daming's oppression will not make Japan perish. On the surface, Britain is here to help us Japan." , but their help is only to let us Japan die quickly. If we don’t want to die, we don’t want to be beaten. The only way is to let Da Ming and Great Britain fight. And the British Royal Navy formation and Zhuge Weidao’s cruiser at the same time Appearing in the coastal waters of Japan is our opportunity.

Among them, we can grasp the itinerary of Zhuge Weidao, and we can arrange the itinerary of the British naval formation visiting Japan.In other words, we can arrange for the British Royal Navy formation to encounter Zhuge's cruisers in a certain sea area at a certain time.At this time, if anyone can help them fire the first shot, what will be the consequences?
Xixiang-kun, do you now understand what I want you to do? "

These one-eyed dragon Xixiang suddenly realized, and then bowed respectfully to Qiliang Shimadzu: "Ha Yi, I know what to do now!"
