Since ancient times, there are three kinds of strong armies, the lowest level needs the incentive of interests, and the money and beauty make a wish, which is the driving force for the bloody war of this kind of army. This kind of army is strong in combat, but loyalty is difficult to guarantee.

The second type of strong army is to use hatred as a means of motivation, and the hatred accumulated in their hearts by the threat of foreign races, the invasion of neighboring countries, and the tragic deaths of their fathers and villagers is the foundation of a strong army. But this kind of army is easily blinded by hatred and loses its mind, and it is difficult to guarantee the source of this kind of army.

And the third type of strong army is the new Ryukyu army in front of Takeaka Inoue. There is no need to mention how high the combat effectiveness of the new army is, and the ban on rushing to the new army has already made everyone stunned.

As we all know, the New Army has never been motivated by money and beautiful women, and it is often the officers who follow me, and all the soldiers are like moths to a fire.

This army is not just a resentful army with hatred as the cohesion|excellent|excellent|small|say|more|new|new|fastest|WWW.UUXS.CC|, no matter how much blood and hatred they have in their hearts, when the horn of assembly sounds, they can also put down their hatred and devote themselves to new tasks.

In the eyes of Sakamoto Ryoma, a group of Japanese samurai, such soldiers do not look like humans at all, have their seven emotions and six desires disappeared?

Let's go back and look at their family samurai, if the head of the family does not reward them in time after a victory, then this group of samurai will soon use a rebellion to express their position. Not to mention the adultery and plunder after the war, if you don't let the samurai vent their anger in their hearts, you don't know when it will turn back on the lord.

Look at Xiao Letian's new army, which was broken up again and again, and then it was able to return to the construction and put into the battlefield without anyone urging it.

There is no soldier who sells his life for money, and the source of fanaticism in their hearts seems to be the only concept of the nation and the country that Xiao Letian instilled.

And the most surprising thing is that this group of soldiers have the ability to 'stop anger', what army in the world is the most terrible? The calm and rational army is the most terrifying, they can put away the desire to kill in their hearts, can dissolve the anger in their hearts by themselves, such an army can already be said to have its own military soul.

"The spirit of the army... People can only live if they have a soul, and if the army has a soul, then won't this army also have the ability to think independently?" Sakamoto Ryoma muttered, "Prime Minister, this is a soul for his power..."

That's right, Sakamoto Ryoma is worthy of being the one who accepted Xiao Letian's bloodline, and his thoughts and Xiao Letian have already thought of going together. What Xiao Le wants is this wisp of the soul of the army and the soul of the nation, what is the Ryukyu test he is talking about?

Xiao Letian just wants to see if he is not here, whether this wisp of military soul and national soul can be condensed and whether he can survive.

And the truth didn't disappoint him...

After the bloody battle, although the French warships on the sea were cruising all the time, more than 3,000 French prisoners were held in the palms of the Ryukyuans, and they did not dare to make a mistake. General Bruce had sent an envoy to negotiate with the Ryukyus, but the envoy's wooden boat was dispersed by a rifle fire before it could reach the shore.

"Go back, we don't negotiate with the executioners...... Let you send civil officials from France to come over and negotiate when our prime minister returns...... ..."

In the angry scolding, the French envoy walked away, and now Bruce and they were even more embarrassed, and they couldn't retreat when they went ashore, and even food and fresh water needed to be replenished from the distant Zhoushan and chicken coops, and the two frigates were completely converted into transport ships.

At the beginning, the Ryukyu military and civilians had to devote a lot of energy to guard against the sneak attack of warships at sea, but after three days, people were finally relieved, and through the interrogation of the prisoners, everyone figured out the situation, it turned out that the French expeditionary force had already run out of ammunition and food, and Tongguò calculated that these warships were estimated to not even have enough ammunition for a salvo.

It turns out that the 3,000 French prisoners cannot all be monolithic, and it is impossible for everyone to have the pride of the Caucasian race, and many soldiers in France are actually scoundrels, gamblers, and perverts, and the source of the soldiers is not as high as that.

There are ways to deal with this kind of people, and there is no need to torture three glasses of wine mixed with aphrodisiacs, and then find a few Japanese prostitutes who are indiscriminate to scratch their heads and make a gesture, and the entire expeditionary force will know all the information.

Moreover, the torture hall also interrogated an important piece of information that could not be obtained, this Molière is said to be the male favorite of Napoleon III, but he did not expect that it was already popular in Europe at that time.

"Dog day, no wonder it's so big, no wonder it can mobilize the resources of the entire Indian colony? It turned out to be a rabbit..."

"Are you kid lying to me?" the official pinched his nose and put two glasses of medicated wine into his stomach, and then glanced at the naked Japanese prostitute, who danced even more coquettishly.

"I swear to God, I didn't lie to you...... This matter of the entire expeditionary force of tens of thousands of people who do not know...... Oh... Let me go, give me a woman...... Please, give me a woman...... I have more information to send to you......"

When the official of the torture hall heard this, he still had to say, "Say, hurry up..."The squinted soldier stared at the white carcass in front of him, and crystal mucus flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Not only do the expeditionary forces now have no ammunition, food and water, they also have no money...... I'm really not lying to you, they don't even have the money to buy food now...... Now the only one who can relieve them is the French minister in the city of Peking, and if you can cut off the connection between them, the warships at sea will starve to death..."

The officials of the torture hall bumped into a table and chair, and all stood up, "Damn, are we taking too much medicine, this kid is talking nonsense......"

"Ten more captives were randomly selected, and then I was given medicine and interrogated again...... Damn, this kid is about to collapse, let him go and let him cool down first......"

The unchained captives rushed over like a male dog in spring heat, and pounced on the old and ugly Japanese prostitute, and began to do beastly things without avoiding others, and suddenly there were bursts of sounds from the dungeon, which were common in the slaughterhouse.

The interrogating officer couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly locked the cell door and went out to ask for a few basins ......of water to wash his eyes, and scolded while washing, "Damn, needle eye, where is this hairy person, it's simply a gorilla, and you still call us barbarians?"

After another thirty minutes, more confessions were gathered, all the calibers were unified, and the French expeditionary force was really running out of ammunition and food.

Since ancient times, wars have been fought in logistics warfare, although the tonnage of warships at sea is large and can carry a large amount of materials to fight in the ocean, but the time of a warship is calculated in months and years when a warship goes on an expedition, and the requirements for logistics supply for warships are actually stricter than those of the army.

During the Age of Discovery, Europeans explored the unknown world and slowly expanded one stronghold after another, until now, the British Royal Navy also needs a series of colonies as a springboard for expeditions.

If the number of strongholds is insufficient, or if the distance is too far, the navy must temporarily recruit civilian ships to be used as supply ships.

The expedition led by Molière did not have a reliable supply point of fixed supplies, nor did it recruit a large number of civilian ships to follow, and only relied on procurement along the way, with the British, from the Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch.

Along the way, Molière spent money like water, and although General Bruce repeatedly reminded him to pay attention to logistical problems, he could no longer listen to persuasion when he was eager to avenge the Emperor, and the most important sentence on his lips at that time was.

"The soldiers are very fast, and my strategic deception is very successful, I am confident that within a week we will be able to take Shuri Castle..."

Such a strange expedition, if there was no relief from the shipload of arms transferred by Gong Cheng and the British, I am afraid that the expeditionary force would have been dumb a long time ago.

There was no ammunition, no food, no money for purchases, and there were no independent colonies in East Asia, France just shared some open ports with Britain and other countries. Bruce looked around and suddenly realized that they were really lonely on the seas of East Asia.

"Great, inform the branch of the Torture Hall in Beijing, let them closely monitor the movements of the French, and under no circumstances let the French minister fund this group of executioners......"

"Inform the branch of the torture hall in Jiangnan, let them activate the internal line, secretly contact Zeng Dashuai, and the two sides will join forces to cause some accidents in the Shanghai concession, focusing on taking care of the French businessmen...... If you can't do it, burn down a few of their warehouses, and when I see it, who would dare to help this group of hungry wolves......"

Countless carrier pigeons took off and flew towards the opposite continent, and one after another foreign merchant ships returned to Naha after receiving the news of the ceasefire, and foreign merchants from all over the world looked up to the Ryukyu military and civilians with great admiration.

"Oh my God, how can such a weak island nation on the sea defeat France? It is incredible, I am afraid that all the political and military strategists in Europe will be ashamed of their short-sightedness, this is the most incredible miracle of the nineteenth century......"

The end of every war is the beginning of a feast for merchants, and there are countless materials needed to be rebuilt, and at this time, you can sell a shipload of rice from the mainland for a sky-high price, not to mention that Lotte has money.

In less than a week, the whole of Naha Bay was restored to the spectacle of thousands of sails. Rice, flour, oil, cloth, timber, and even bricks and tiles for buildings were specially brought in, not to mention boatloads of munitions and supplies.

With the strong financial support of Lotte & Co., the entire Naha quickly recovered, and the dilapidated streets were almost the same every day, and everyone now experienced the vitality of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and the rising country of the first nation in East Asia was really not bragging.

What surprised everyone even more was that on the periphery of the waters where the French expeditionary force was cruising, three more warships flying the flag of the King of the Ryukyus and the flag of Xiao Zi were proudly isolating the merchant ships from the French warships.

One by one, the sailors on the deck shouted at any merchant ship that dared to approach the French warship, "Stand back, everyone stand back, there is no ceasefire between Ryukyu and France, and any civilian ship that comes close to the French fleet will be tried for the crime of financing the enemy......"

"Stand back, stand back...... What about you, if you don't back off, we'll open fire..."
