People need to be forced, a country and a nation also need to be forced, and closing the door to live their own small life with peace of mind is a pseudo-proposition in the Middle Ages, not to mention the current industrial age.

If you don't mess with others, it doesn't mean that others won't mess with you, Daqing still wants to live his own life behind closed doors, people in Daqing have the right not to do business with you outsiders...

But that's not the case, what you don't want to do, someone will force you to do. You want to close the country? I have artillery to blast it open. Do you want to honestly be in the middle of the cracks and be a weak country on your wall? I'm sorry, I think your weeds are very eye-catching.

At the moment of life and death, Jin Changsen finally threw away all unrealistic illusions, and the most conservative group of people in the Ryukyu Kingdom was finally mobilized.

"Ministers, brothers, you have been with me Jin Changsen for decades, and we have protected the Ryukyu Kingdom through countless crises in the past few decades, and I thought that this time we could also survive the crisis by relying on the left and right, but I was wrong, very wrong......"

The high hall was brightly lit, and Jin Changsen gathered a group of old stubborns who wore a pair of pants with him and were also the most conservative in the Ryukyu Kingdom, and Jin Changsen, who was holding a wine glass, was already excited and burst into tears.

"The French have gone to war without declaring war, and ten warships loaded with more than 600 guns are already coming towards Naha, and they are going to completely destroy our country... We can't go back any further, and if we take another half step, we'll all fall into the sea and feed the sharks..."

There was a loud uproar in the crowd, and everyone looked left and right and couldn't believe their ears, until they confirmed it three times in a row, and then they understood that Jin Changsen had not deceived everyone.

There was a crisp snap, I don't know if it was the porcelain cup that broke in his hand, "Bastards, these bastards haven't stopped yet? It's only been a good year since the good days, and then there are thieves again, and this doesn't give people a way to live..."

"It's just that we in the Ryukyus never thought that there would be such a prosperous day for hundreds of years, look at the ships and goods in the port... Let's take a look at the tax money that flows in every day like the sea... And that workshop that can't even be named, this is something we can't think of in our eight lifetimes..."

"The prime minister feels sorry for us, not only made up for the money owed over the years, but also added a large amount of money to us, how did you come to dismantle the stage when this good day began?"

"Damn, since you don't let us live, let's go on with them, old man, I have no quarrel with the world for the rest of my life, I'll fight hard today, if the foreigner ghost soldiers rush in front of me, I have to give him two sticks if I die......"

The most conservative group in the Ryukyu Kingdom was also mobilized this time, and when these politicians, who were so calm that they were almost cold-blooded, were angry that they wanted to take the knife, it is conceivable how angry the most fanatical group had been.

The entire Naha was completely plunged into a big storm, the government began to be in full swing, all the new troops opened their doors to recruit strong people, and Xiao Letian's 500 new army left in Naha expanded to 3,000 in just three days.

This is still General Cai Mao's hard compression, if he hadn't been controlling the scale, let alone three thousand, even thirty thousand could be easily gathered.

However, this is not how modern warfare is fought, and the army has always been unable to win by fighting the number of people, and if you add water to the 500 new army, it is already the limit if you can mix it up to 3,000, and if you continue more, the command system will definitely collapse.

Now the people of the whole city have gone crazy, if they can't join the new army, then they will organize a militia group, and if they can't join the militia, then they should be brave and brave, and it is really not okay for Lao Tzu to help the troops carry a big bag.

All the streets were full of heralds running wildly, the lieutenant and the first lieutenant and the first lieutenant led the neighbors to pile up sandbags to cut off traffic, and almost all the intersections, there were literate students preaching to the people.

These young people who came out of the ten schools built by Xiao Letian, wearing light blue half-worn school uniforms, stood on a high wooden box, holding the newspaper that had been circulated from Europa, shouting hoarse and heartbroken one by one.

"Folks, take a look... The shameless French, in the Mediterranean, on the high seas, dared to send warships to attack our Prime Minister, and they even hurt the Prime Minister on French soil... The prime minister of a country can bayonet each other, and the big guy said, if our people fall into their hands, will there be any way to live?"

"Uncles and uncles, who drove away the jackals of the Shimazu family? Who gave us a full bite to eat? Who made it possible for us young people to go to school without spending money? Who was it...... It's the Prime Minister... What choice do we have but revenge? As long as we have a shred of conscience in our hearts, we cannot live numbly..."

"O people of the Ryukyus Kingdom, the robbers have already come to the door, even if you can't lift a steel knife or shoot a foreign gun, you still have a lot of strength... Everyone is organized, those who have money will contribute, we will make a strong contribution, we will procure military funds, we will build fortifications...... Prepare for war... The whole city prepares for ......"

From ancient times to the present, young people are fanatical, not to mention that they are all young people who have been brainwashed by Xiao Lotian Western Studies, and they really want to form a student army to join the battle, but the Ryukyu royal family categorically rejected their request.

If we don't let us go to the battlefield, then we will move our mouths, and we will use a warm blood and an incorruptible tongue to encourage the whole kingdom.

The Chinese community, the indigenous people of the Ryukyus, and even the Japanese people were all swept away by the storm, and in just two days, the student preachers on the streets of Naha received a donation of 200,000 silver dollars.

Countless gray-haired old men, babbling children, and housewives with vicissitudes of life...... These people from different ethnic groups with different life experiences took out the little money they had saved and threw them into the donation box with their body temperature.

"Then go, anyway, the good days are also given by the Prime Minister, the jackals come to the door, what is the use of us keeping the floating wealth, even if we return the good days given to us by the Prime Minister......" After speaking, countless women and children wiped their tears and left.

What's even more unimaginable is that even those ruffians who opened green buildings and gambling halls and ate ninth-rate rice actually secretly squeezed over with a frown, threw down a handful of silver dollars and turned around and left in the strange eyes of countless people.

When they were blocked by the puzzled people, they stumbled one by one and said, "Look at it...... Look at what we're doing? Even if the money I make is ninth-rate, we know it...... I know, the truth of the cold lips and teeth. Besides, if Naha is smashed, won't we have any money to make?"

This is the real social mobilization, Xiao Lotian only ruled the Ryukyus for one year, he has already built Naha into the most progressive city in East Asian thought, the national concept, the national concept in Xiao Lotian spared no effort to advocate, finally broke the ground and sprouted.

Sure enough, as Xiao Lotian said, if you don't break an old world, a new world will not appear. The reason why the hearts of the people of the Ryukyus changed so much in one year is inseparable from the great riots that swept through the city.

After a night of bloodshed, the whole of Naha was reduced to ruins, burned and smashed not only the houses and wealth, but also the people's dependence on tradition. Coupled with Xiao Letian's almost god-like appearance in the whole conflict, his prestige even surpassed that of King Shangtai.

Xiao Lotian is already a bit semi-mythical, and his cult of personality in the Ryukyus is no less than that of Hitler's heyday of rule in Germany. In addition, ten public schools are desperately brainwashing young people, and the people's morale remains unchanged, so there are ghosts.

Countless Western businessmen stranded in Naha have already looked stupid, and in their eyes, these East Asian people have suddenly burst out with a temperament that they have never had before. If the Asian people of the past were ignorant and insensitive, the temperament exuded by the people of the Ryukyus today is self-confidence and pride.

"It's terrible, in just one year, Ryukyu was changed by Xiao Lotian like this, if you give him time to rule the empire opposite...... Oh God, I can't imagine..."

Countless treacherous Western merchants were so frightened by the surging momentum of the Ryukyu people that they did not even dare to make this national fortune, and when the Ryukyu government purchased various materials from them with silver coins, they not only did not increase the price but even gave some discounts.

Any accident can happen in the war, and the merchant eats the bowl of rice with connections, and it is always good to leave a little more good karma.

Time passed little by little, and what should come will always come, just when the Ryukyus had become a big fortress, on the route of the Taiwan Strait near the side of the treasure island, ten French hideous giant ships finally revealed their figures.

Special envoy Molière stood at the bow of the ship, holding a telescope in his hand, looking at the outline of the mountains on the island of Taiwan, and countless seagulls were flying in the white waves split by the bow of the ship.

"It's a pity, it's a pity, such a huge island was not developed by the Qing Dynasty? I haven't even seen a decent fort along the way...... It's gone, this old empire is really gone..."

Rear Admiral Bruce, who had changed from side to side, hurriedly smiled and pandered, "What the envoy said is very right, not to mention that the island of Taiwan was wasted by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, six years ago when I was an ordinary captain and followed the expeditionary force to the north of the Qing Kingdom, I had this feeling......"

"Not only have they wasted an island of Taiwan, but their mainland forts are also backward, and this country has been wasted under their rule for two hundred years. It can't be like this anymore, this country needs us in the civilized world to save ......"

Bruce's sycophant obviously didn't hit the point, and Molière said with a little mockery, "Haha, it seems that Your Excellency the General will not be able to become a politician in his life." Why should this country be saved, and what duty does our civilized world have to save?"

"Since they have chosen to fall behind, let's continue to lag behind, let this huge country become a raw material base and a dumping ground for our Europeans, let us squeeze out all their wealth little by little, this is a gold mine that will never run out, and the door has already been blown up by us......"

At this moment, the lookout above the two suddenly shouted, "There is an unknown ship due north...... I saw clearly that it was a Japanese-style ship......"

Molière picked up his binoculars and looked north, a sinister smile on his lips when the old and dilapidated ship came into view.

"It's a miracle that such a backward sailing ship from the Middle Ages was able to sail here, and Japan is still in seclusion, and it is impossible for them to send ships to Taiwan......"

"Hehehe, little one, you're coming from the Ryukyus, aren't you? Well, since you've sent it to the door, I'm not going to be polite...... The herald blows up and sinks the ship, and the punitive war in France officially begins..."
