Long Ye has indeed arrived in Hakodate for more than a month, and in this month, he has truly seen what is called the fanaticism of Japanese samurai, these samurai who are extremely eager for military merit have squeezed the small Hakodate Castle into full water.

Hakodate, later known as Hakodate in Hokkaido, was not a large metropolis, but a small town of a few thousand people at the end of the Edo period, and the castle was low and dilapidated.

In order to avoid irritating the Russians, this time he did not use any Western-style cargo ships, let alone warships, and more than 1,000 Japanese samurai had to cross the Sea of Japan in ten large Japanese ships.

Looking at the few dilapidated ships on the sea, Long Ye was worried: "Is this possible? Isn't it too dangerous to cross a distance of more than 400 nautical miles and have to cross the sea under the cover of night?"

Sister Wu on the side put down the map and comforted, "There will be no problem, the fishermen here in Ezo often go deep into the sea to fish, and there are even many hunters who follow the fishing boats across the sea to hunt, to put it mildly, there is no concept of a country here, where there is prey, they will go there......"

"Every year, Ezo pays a lot of tribute to the shogunate such as bear skins, tiger skins, wolf skins, and ginseng, do you really think that there are tigers here in Ezo?"

Long Ye was all happy, "It turns out that you have been stealing our things all along?"

"That's wrong, it's not stealing your things, we're stealing the things of the Manchurians, including the current expedition, aren't we also joining forces to steal the land that belongs to the Manchurians?"

Master Long and Sister Wu smiled at each other, it seemed that both parties had deeply understood the ultimate purpose of this mission.

At this moment, a report suddenly sounded at the door: "Report! There is a wild samurai named Inoyama Chip outside, asking to see you!"

"Oh, these two legs of Pig Mountain Chip have finally caught up with our four legs, it's not easy!"

Inoyama Chip is the wild samurai who spread the order to himself in the Echichu Plain, in order to prevent more wild samurai from being killed, Long Ye had to issue an order to stop recruiting wild samurai, just let him spread the word that he would leave Japan at Ezo Hakokan.

This is a cruel knockout match, there is no so-called fairness in Japanese society, and the news that Long Ye came to Japan to recruit a thousand samurai made the samurai who were eager for war and military achievements crazy and restless.

If there are more people and less porridge, what should I do, and in the end it turned into a massacre. In order to prevent the wild samurai from competing for a limited number of places, the samurai of those daimyo families launched a massacre of the wild samurai one after another before the dragon lord arrived.

The Dragon Master of the Yuezhong Plain once personally dug up a place to bury the corpse, and he still remembers the tragic situation of the massacre.

The sound of footsteps sounded, and the dusty Pig Mountain Chip knelt on the tatami mat and saluted Long Ye, "The subordinates have completed the task of heralding, and the feudal lords in the northeast have received the military orders from the adults, and the subordinates are here to hand over the orders!"

Long Ye glanced at him, and suddenly snorted coldly, "Hmph...... Are you not convinced by my orders? No excuses have been written on your face!"

Pig Hill froze for a moment, and finally made a heavy buckle on his head, "Hai...... I think your lordship's order is unfair, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng of the East China Sea relies on fairness to win people's hearts, the deeds of Nohei Tai and Hyotaro have inspired countless wild samurai in despair, but today your lord has closed the door to meritocracy, which makes us chill......"

"Chilling? You also saw the scene of the massacre, if it weren't for my order, how many wild warriors would have been slaughtered?

Pig Shan Chip looked sad and indignant, "My lord...... We wild warriors are as humble as weeds, what we need is not protection, what we need is an opportunity, a chance to strive upward!"

"We are not afraid of death, we are willing to fight with those famous samurai, and the survival of the fittest by natural selection, isn't this also something that the prime minister often says?

Oh! Long Ye was deeply shocked, why is this nation so ruthless to themselves? Their spiritual world is completely different from that of the Central Plains people, they can not only push others to the place of sacrifice, but they don't even care if they die themselves.

If life is low, then death must be more brilliant! This is the core spirit of bushido, the kind of religious devotion to death.

"Want to die, hehe, there is a chance, when you fight in the white mountains and black waters, you will taste the pain like hell...... I confess that if I don't give this order, there will indeed be a group of brave samurai who will fight their way out of the siege, evade the claws of predators, and become my warriors......"

"However, you don't know what kind of place you will be fighting in the future, where the bitter cold is many times worse than Ezo, and I need soldiers who are determined and full of endurance......"

"Now you look out the window and look at the wild samurai crowded on the streets of Hakodate, that is the real soldier full of tenacity, knowing that I have issued an order to stop recruiting wild samurai, they have not given up and are still pursuing hard, and they have run all over North and South Japan, just for a false possibility, you say they are not excellent samurai?"

"This is the soldier I want, the king of soldiers who will never give up even for a false dream! Only they can endure day and night in the cold winter snow, and only they can lie in a silent ambush in the lonely primeval forest, and only they can have the patience to carry out a protracted and bitter battle......"

"Tell the wild warriors that once they get on the ship, they won't be back for ten years, and they're going to have a long and protracted war...... Once on board, there is no turning back!"

Pig Shan Chip had tears in his eyes, he knew that the thousands of wild samurai in the box hall had finally come out, and after a heavy kowtow, Pig Mountain Chip turned his head and ran out.

Sister Wu looked at Long Ye and was silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "How did I find out that you are becoming more and more like the prime minister?" Your tone was full of inflammation...... Do you know, we Mist Hidden Ninjas have a legend that Xiao Letian's tongue is actually refined by the karmic fire in hell, so it is full of demagogic power, I didn't expect you to be infected as well......"

Long Ye gave him a blank look, "Bewitched, if they don't have that dream in their hearts, just a walking corpse, I'm afraid no one in the world can bewitch them...... It is precisely because they have the devil of war living in their hearts that they will resonate with everything I say, don't forget your identity, this kind of thing can be said to me, you must not mess with my military heart!"

Sister Wu shrugged her shoulders, "As you wish, General Xiang!"
