"Prepare for battle! All prepare for battle...... What are you doing......?" the more than seventy Japanese ships began to adjust their attitudes, and the deck was full of soldiers running wildly and roaring hysterically.

Now even the low-ranking soldiers who could not read recognized the owner of this fleet, and only one army in Asia used light blue uniforms, and only one army could afford to use Western-style warships.

Soft sail technology is not impossible to manufacture in Asia, but soft sail warships need too many sailors, and it is also a test of the level of sailors, Asia has not had much marine thinking since ancient times, and there are few talents in this professional counterpart.

Therefore, the sailing ships that can be produced in Asia now are all hard sails, and even the fleet of Zheng He, the famous eunuch of the Three Treasures in history, also uses hard sail technology.

In the thinking of the Asian generals at that time, although the artillery in naval warfare was powerful, it was the broadside battle that ultimately determined the outcome of the battle, which was the most primitive hand-to-hand combat.

Of course, this group of Japanese navy knew that the small cannons on their ships had little combat effectiveness, and all seventy warships chose to charge at this moment, trying to get close to the Ryukyu fleet for hand-to-hand combat.

Cai Mao shook her head contemptuously, "There is nothing wrong with tactical thinking, but the generation difference is too big...... T-shaped tactics, using starboard guns to fire intensively...... Choose your target freely!"

The flag-bearers began to send flags at the top of the mast, and soon the ships were ready for battle, the latest rifled guns were loaded with high-explosive shells, and the whole Osaka bay was thundered with a loud bang as the order for free fire was given.

It was a one-sided slaughter, and the tattered Japanese skubunes were no match for the new artillery, and each explosion could bite a huge gap in the hull of the skull, and the sea water poured in.

"It's too powerful, the enemy artillery is too powerful...... We can't stop it......" With a bang, a group of sailors was thrown into the sky, shattered in the blast of air.

The roar of this salvo shook the entire battlefield, and the soldiers on the land looked south one by one, and all of them had only one sentence on their lips: "What's wrong? What the hell is going on?"

Tokugawa Keiki in the castle tower spurted out a mouthful of blood as soon as he spurted out a mouthful of blood, "How could this be? Why did Xiao Lotian join the war? Didn't the previous information make it very clear? The four feudal clans in the southwest refused Xiao Letian's request to send troops, didn't there be a rift between them?"

"Divine punishment! Xiao Letian, you are the divine punishment of our Japan!"

"General!" a group of small surnames and guards rushed up and hurriedly helped the general to sit down.

"Quick...... Hurry up and ask the French for help, now only they can suppress Xiao Letian!......

By this time, Minister Rosh, Commander-in-Chief Sheman, and Matsudaira Yoho had already quarreled into a pot of porridge, and they also saw the killing on the Gulf of Osaka.

Roche and Schedovan had fire in their eyes, "Damn, that's the Wave Crusher! That's the Roma! That's the Lyra! It's all our French warships, and the despicable Xiao Lotian has robbed us of the glory of France with intrigues!"

"The artillery immediately seized the high ground...... Shoot at the sea...... The new army is all fortified on the beach, ready to fight Xiao Lotian ......"

Matsudaira Rongbao was shocked when he heard this: "No, absolutely not! Now we should go all out to pursue the Southwest Coalition Army and completely destroy those 30,000 elites, as long as we can control the situation in Japan, the threat on the sea can be solved!"

"Xiao Lotian and the Southwest Coalition are definitely not of the same mind, he is not their ally, I firmly believe this, Xiao Lotian came to Japan for interests, as long as we can defeat the coalition forces, we can also start negotiations with Xiao Letian at that time......"

This was the thinking of a politician, and Rosh understood it at the time, but before Rosh could express his support, Xeduo roared angrily.

"Shut up, I'm the commander-in-chief of the battlefield! These soldiers are all trained by me, and you all have to listen to me...... The glory of France cannot be trampled on in this way, and today we must go to war against Xiao Lotian......"

"The whole army listens to my orders! Stop the pursuit, assemble towards the bay, and prepare to deal with Xiao Letian......"

"No, you're in chaos!" Matsudaira yelled, "We only have 12 guns, and the enemy has more guns on a ship than us, didn't you teach me?

Matsudaira Rongbao stared at Xie Duo deadly, "I won't use our Japanese lives to fill the face of you French, and I will definitely not let your chaotic life succeed!"

Speaking of this, Matsudaira Rongbao suddenly yelled, "I...... Matsudaira Rongbo ...... Aizu Domain...... The official position is fattened and guarded...... I command you as the guardian of the Tokugawa family's Kyoto...... My brave Tokugawa samurai, please stand up and take over the army, and from now on, the new army will be commanded by me!"

The people around him were dumbfounded, but a few seconds later, Matsudaira Rongho's White Tiger Youth League and the small surnames, including the personal samurai, rode or galloped to spread the order.

"Matsudaira Yoho-sama ordered...... Commanding the entire army as the guardian of Kyoto...... The samurai of the Tokugawa family took over the army...... Don't listen to the French anymore......"

"Pursuit, leave the sea alone, let's go after the rebel ...... of the Southwest Coalition Army"

Rosh and Xeduo went crazy, "Matsudaira Yoho, you're sabotaging the alliance between the two families...... You're committing a crime!"

"I'm sorry, if I'm guilty, I'll cut my stomach with you after the war!, but now, I must take over this army!" Matsudaira said firmly.

At this time, the French instructor corps in the army had already clashed with their soldiers, and they didn't expect Matsudaira Rongbo's words to make the sheep-like army agitated.

From one company to another, there were always some strong soldiers who stood up and shouted their own names and those of their families, these were the samurai in the army, although they did not wear armor and carry swords, but they had the surname of the samurai.

In Japan, commoners are not allowed to have a surname, and only samurai, ministers, and daimyo can have noble surnames. In ancient Japan, it was perfectly possible for a person with a surname to order those untouchables.

The French instructors were crazy, they could not have imagined that after more than half a year of training, the supreme authority would be easily taken away at this moment, and the eyes of this group of Japanese soldiers, who had just been extremely obedient, were actually hostile to them at this moment.

"Bastards, ungrateful fellows, you have forgotten that it was the French who taught you to fight...... A soldier's vocation is obedience!" snapped twice, and the whip struck a samurai's face, leaving two bloody streaks.

And the samurai did not fight back, but he bowed deeply and said, "Hai...... Thanks to the instructors for teaching us, we will never forget the kindness for the rest of our lives...... But after all, we are samurai, we are loyal servants of the Tokugawa family, and we will not forget our lordship!"

After speaking, the samurai turned his head and shouted to the soldiers who had just expressed his obedience to him, "If you can't fight back, you can't scold back, the instructor is our benefactor, even if you kill us, it is right!" But we still have to obey the general's orders...... Now listen to me and go west!"

The battlefield was already crazy at the moment, the Tokugawa family's new army rushed ahead, and from time to time loaded ammunition to shoot at the southwest coalition forces, behind their buttocks, the angry French instructors whipped with leather whips, and cursed desperately in their mouths.

This group of Japanese soldiers, if they really can't fight back, scolding and not returning their mouths, those who are beaten will consider themselves unlucky, and the rest of them are still stubbornly pursuing the coalition forces.

"You are all crazy, you Japanese are crazy...... Look at what has become of the sea, and instead of saving your allies, you are chasing the escapees?"

"Don't you want Osaka Castle? You don't even want your own general? Are you still a loyal servant of the shogunate?"

Matsudaira Rongho looked at the chaotic Osaka Castle in the distance, and then looked at the one-sided slaughter in the bay, although he was dripping blood in distress, he still stubbornly shook his head and said, "The general will understand me, I believe in the general's vision!"

"Damn the Japanese, one by one stubborn as stones! Bah...... "Xie Wan spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm to the ground" Gather our officer corps, I want to see what this group of Japanese can do!"

The French officer corps protected Minister Roche, and more than fifty men seized a high ground, and everyone was on guard with loaded guns, and the Minister and Cheduo began to observe the whole battlefield with binoculars.

"Oh my God! Isn't Xiao Letian's navy just formed? Not to mention the accuracy of the gunners' shooting, just looking at the flexible posture of the sailors, these are all veterans? When did so many ocean-going sailors appear in Asia?" asked Xie Duo puzzled.

After all, Minister Roche controlled the French spy network in East Asia, and he sneered and said, "It's not some Americans who helped train it, do you know who is now monopolized by the silver trade in the Pacific......?

"We all know that thirty or forty sailors can easily control the clippers, but every time the Ryukyu silver trade and the clippers cross the Pacific Ocean, they stuff one or two hundred sailors into the ship, I don't know what use it is except for military training......"

Yes, Xiao Letian's naval plan has been launched from the moment he built a foreign bank in Tanggu, and Xiao Letian's thinking is very clear, first cultivate talents and then wait for equipment.

Any weapon needs to be manipulated by people, and everything is empty talk without people. Facts have proved Xiao Letian's wisdom, when the three French battleships were captured, it only took a two-month run-in period, and the naval soldiers were already able to maneuver flexibly.

The massacre in Osaka Bay was a testament to the strength of the Ryukyu Navy, as all 70 Japanese ships were destroyed in 20 minutes of shelling, and only two battered warships reached a distance of 30 meters from the Roma.

But that was the end of their fate, as the Roma and Lyra were flanked left and right, the deck guns were fired, the guns below deck roared, and after a puff of white smoke, the last two ships sank to the bottom of the sea.

"Okay, brothers, let's enter Osaka Castle and let us see the scenery of Gyeonggi!"
