Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

Seeing that Tongzhi had admitted his identity, Itou Hirobumi quickly straightened his appearance and knelt on the deck to pay his respects to the Emperor.

"Small citizen of the lower countries, Changzhou vassal Itou Hirobumi pays her respects to the emperor of the upper countries, long live! Long live! "Long live!" With that said, he respectfully kowtowed towards Tongzhi.

Even though they called him the Heavenly Emperor, they knew very well how small and how poor the families of the Japan were, and how much power the Heavenly Emperor had.

This feeling of reverence did not gradually change until after the victory of the afternoon. Right now, no one in Japan dared to be disrespectful to the Emperor of the Great Qing.

Tongzhi lowered his head and scolded Itou Hirobumi angrily, "Although you had some problems attacking our Great Qing government in the beginning, but I couldn't say what you were thinking based on your words. Why are you talking nonsense afterwards? What foot-cloth or blood? Is that something a gentleman can say? "

"You don't cultivate the morals, and your mouth is full of nonsense. You can even be considered a scholar!" A person like you will have to change all your identities! "

Itou Hirobumi suddenly straightened her back, "Your majesty!" He said with a wronged expression, "When did Foreign ministers speak such nonsense? "This was real in the first place …"

"Nonsense!" I will beat you to death... How come I've never heard of such a thing? When have I ever done it? " As he spoke, Zai Chun pounced again to beat him up.

At this time, Xiao Letian spoke out, "Enough! "Stop making trouble!" The low roar made Zai Chun retreat like a mouse that had seen a cat, but he still felt wronged.

"Master …" He scolded me! "

Xiao Letian glared at him: "What Itou Hirobumi said is not wrong, you don't know that because the officials below did not tell you, the Great Qing Army has really done this kind of thing …"

"Don't even mention it, when Maylor led his troops to attack the Tanggu, he had already used fecal soup and black dog blood. He also had a toilet bowl and footcloths, which he threw at our Marines' trenches … Hehe, I nearly disgusted the brothers to death! "

Further into the distance, British Fleet attacked Guangzhou during the Daoguang year, while Hunan Governor Yang Fang went to Guangzhou to help Lin Zexu fight against Ying. In the end, they managed to get past the so-called toilet array, which was filled with feces and black dog blood.

Zai Chun was dumbfounded listening to his, "I … How come I don't know anything? Why didn't anyone tell me? "

Xiao Letian laughed coldly and said, "Don't even mention you, those people even dare to lie to the Guang Ming emperor. Yang Fang and Yi Shan lost and lost again, but they even reported their victory to the imperial government, said that they won many battles, and then negotiated with the British in private. They bullied the capital city's overlords, and they messed with them because they couldn't get enough of the information …"

"It's not over yet. When Yang Fang was defending Zhejiang, she even made the soldiers dress up as tigers to show off their strength in front of the base. That means it's really sad and lamentable that tigers eat tigers …"

Zai Chun was no longer the little emperor who had never seen the world in the Forbidden City. He could read tens of thousands of books and travel ten thousand miles.

Zai Chun who had already been enlightened obviously knew that those superstitious things were just to fool others. When he heard the iron-like truth, his face immediately flushed red.

"I... I, I, I... "How could this be …" Zai Chun was so embarrassed that he was stuttering. He had lost all his face in front of Japanese and now, the little emperor wanted to jump into the ocean.

Xiao Letian obviously knew Zai Chun's temperament. This child was extremely ambitious, all the way until now, he was determined to rebuild the Yuan Ming Yuan, take it head on with his own mother. Deep down, he was also a rebellious youth, so this kind of child must be taught a lesson.

"Zai Chun, you don't need to do this. The entire Asia is slowly waking up in ignorance. This isn't something that can happen overnight. In fact, just look at what happened to the Mr. Ryoma and what happened to those White Tiger youth s. You know that Japan is far more ignorant than the Great Qing … "

Zai Chun thought about it, that was true, since they were already beginning to eat human flesh, one could imagine how stupid they were, although they were laughing at the top of their lungs, their mood was much better.

After the impact had been resolved, Zai Chun and Itou Hirobumi shook hands happily. Itou Hirobumi hurriedly said that she did not dare to, and in the end, Zai Chun gave him a jade thumb ring.

Itou Hirobumi never thought that she would be bestowed such a gift by the Great Qing Emperor. She was so excited that he quickly kowtowed and kowtowed.

In the cabin, the Mr. Ryoma's face started to turn red, the wounds on his body started to heal, and Itou Hirobumi knelt in front of Xiao Letian, greeting him as a teacher.

Itou Hirobumi perfectly answered Xiao Letian's tricky question, which made Xiao Letian once again firm in his determination to cultivate him to be the Mr. Ryoma's assistant. In the face of the complex and ever-changing situation in Japan, without such a flexible and flexible politician taking charge, chaos would break out sooner or later.

After arranging the tables and chairs, Xiao Letian taught Itou Hirobumi the first lesson. Actually, he was also teaching everyone present the same lesson, as to where the biggest lesion was located at right now.

"You just asked me where the true focus of Japan is. Now, I can tell you very clearly, the kungfu path, the kungfu path, you Japan will have a great advantage in the kungfu path. Of course, you guys will also suffer a big loss!"

Everyone sat upright, especially Mr. Ryoma and Itou Hirobumi who were so nervous that they didn't even dare blink for fear of missing a single word.

"Yes, Japan is different from other countries in Asia. You have a long history of military general politics, but the civil officials politics has been suppressed for a thousand years. Since the beginning of the martial arts era in the southern Song Dynasty, the civil war has been going on throughout the history of Japan."

"In China, regardless of whether it is Ming and Qing dynasties, most of the time, it is the political power of the civil officials that dominates the country. However, you, Japan, are different. The warrior class rules the country most of the time. This has formed a tradition …"

"Therefore, I can be sure that even if you succeed in renovating Japan, and the government changes the system and succeeds in industrialization, the Wu family will still take away your power in the end. This is not a possibility but a definite one!"

Xiao Letian sighed, "Once the battle between martial artists has an absolute advantage, then Japan would be full of aggression. In addition to the huge power brought about by the success of rejuvenation and industrialization, Japan would make those arrogant warriors full of themselves. This is just like a gambler who always wins money at the game, he would unceasingly bet, and he would daydream that his luck will never fail …"

"This kind of madman only has one end, and that is to completely lose all of his chips, or even lose his own life. Everything is just a dream of his …"

"Hiss …" Everyone present sucked in a breath of cold air, causing Sakamoto Ryoma's lips to tremble as he said, "Surely not? Would there be such a serious consequence? "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

It was only then that he realized Itou Hirobumi's pragmatism and calmness. He nodded his head and said, "Master is right, I am a free student of Chinese literature, and have also studied in Britain before. I have some understanding towards Asian and European politics …"

"The history of the Central Plains has been flourishing since the ancient times. Although outsiders may feel that the people of the Central Plains aren't lucky enough and feel a little cowardly, but in the thousands of years of history, the barbarians have continuously invaded the Central Plains' civilization. However, the Han civilization has rarely fought back …"

"But strangely, the territories controlled by the Han civilization get bigger and bigger. Although there are hundreds or even hundreds of years of ups and downs, the overall trend doesn't change …"

"There must be a reason behind cowardice expanding one's territory. Later on, I thought about it and felt that the core reason lay in the politics of the civil officials … "Since ancient times, China has produced many outstanding politicians and strategist!"

Saying that, Xiao Letian immediately asked: "Oh! Then let me ask you, what's the difference between a politician and a politician? What's the difference between a strategist and a Tactician? "

Under Xiao Letian's encouraging gaze, Itou Hirobumi blushed slightly: "Everyone listens to what my aunt has said …" Personally, I feel that the strategist and the politicians stand at a higher position and have a longer vision. They understand the power of time and patience and they know what true negotiation and compromise is … "

"Yes, that's right. They understand the art of compromise and know how to retreat in order to advance. On the surface, you might think that he is weak, but in the end, those people are the ones who took advantage of us …"

"As for the strategists and politicians, their vision is much shorter. They are more aggressive and more focused on practical benefits. Once these people have the upper hand, they will not spare anyone!"

"From my point of view, 99% of the samurais in Japan are tacticians and politicians. Even if one or two of them are real strategist and politicians … I don't think the final outcome will be too good! "

With a "pa" sound, Xiao Letian clapped his hands together, "You're right. It looks like you really put in a lot of effort! The path of martial arts is like that of yin and yang, it must be fused with water and milk, so you should walk on two legs! "

"Occupying a piece of land, or perhaps obtaining a piece of tangible benefits, is something that a martial artist would dare. However, how to digest the meat in his mouth and turn it into his own flesh and blood will depend on how the scholars grind the water …"

"Why is it that the Chinese people have been under constant attack from the barbarians, but their territory is steadily increasing? Hahaha … Without wise politicians and strategist, that is impossible! "

"So, the core focus of Japan is that the fighters are too strong and the civil servants are too weak …" I will make a prophecy, that in the future, the Japanese political scene will definitely assassinate Cheng Feng, and the Mr. Ryoma's fate will definitely be repeated … "

"Sooner or later, you will kill all the wise men in this nation yourselves, killing a vast expanse of white land so cleanly!"

With a plop, Itou Hirobumi knelt on the ground with hot tears in his eyes and said, "Please enlighten me, Master, please teach me …" At this time, even Sakamoto Ryoma could not take it anymore, and struggled to greet Xiao Letian.

Xiao Letian steadily held onto Mr. Ryoma and sighed, "Don't be like this, there are many things that requires everyone to work hard on! The so-called begging is better than begging yourself! "
