The shogunate is preparing to enrich the country and strengthen the army, but how did Naohide know about it?

Of course, someone told him that this person was the shogunate's Kan Shogunate Oguri Tadashun.

Doesn't it mean that there is something wrong with the relationship between Oguri and Naohide, and the two seem to be close but are actually starting to drift apart, so why did Oguri still write to tell Naohide this important news?

The answer is simple, you can't make friends without a quarrel.

Yes, in essence, the relationship between the two has not only begun to drift apart, but it can even be said that there are serious differences, but this disagreement is not caused by personal feelings, but political disagreements. So quarrel after quarrel, the relationship between friends is still relatively strong.

Although the two of them are now in important positions, and in their relationship with each other, the meaning of political allies has gradually overwhelmed the like-mindedness of their youth, but they have experienced so many things together, and their friendship for many years is still there. So, even though they are far apart, the correspondence has not been interrupted for many years.

Moreover, Oguri did not directly leak the major news of this shogunate, but Naohide guessed it based on the content of the letter.

There was a time in the past, because Mr. Egawa Tanan, Oguri Tadashun, and Naohide Hori were very close to each other, and they all loved Lanxue, and there were once good people who called them "Lanxue Three Swords (Cheap) Guest". But as Naoxiu stayed in the Northland for a long time and gradually faded out of sight, this harmonic name was gradually forgotten.

"There are only wrong names, no wrong nicknames."

This sentence is certainly not true for some, especially those insulting epithets, but it still makes sense when applied to the "Three Musketeers of Lanxue" - in recent years, all three have contributed greatly to the development of Fuso Lanxue:

In recent years, some of the things that Mr. Tanan has done are very famous, such as making iron, building Shinagawa Odaiba, making steel, casting large cylinders, and making iron cannons, but there are also some things that are not well known, such as building machine tools, developing steam tanks, and improving agricultural tools.

But in any case, Mr. Egawa, who has accumulated over the decades, is the most famous.

At the same time, Oguri Tadashun's reputation is not small:

From the 6th year of Kaei (1853) when he and Mr. Tanan jointly wrote the "Outline of the Agreements of the Western Kingdoms", Oguri began to be known for his mastery of orchid science.

Then, in 1854, he participated in the negotiations with the Lu and Mi people, presided over the signing of the peace agreement with England, and in 1858 he presided over the signing of the trade agreement of the Lan Kingdom, and rejected the trade request of Prussian merchants pretending to be envoys.

In addition, he was involved in foreign trade for many years as a Nagasaki mesuke, Nagasaki mesuke, and Nagasaki commissioner, so he gradually gained prestige in the field of orchid (Western theory).

However, compared to Mr. Tanan's industrial reputation, his reputation is more focused on foreign negotiations and trade.

As for Zhixiu, he is not well-known and is suspected of making up the three musketeers.

In his early years, he wrote books on agriculture, medicine, relying on home remedies to cure diseases, popularizing rice-style windmills, making honeycomb coal, making pozzolana cement, bricks, glass, cultivating pearls, and breeding good seeds.

Even, when Naohide returned to Fuso in 1849, he presented the shogunate with the Kenhaku book that he had worked so hard to summarize, but because no one paid attention to it at the time, it has now disappeared silently - it was really a hard work to feed the dogs.

Only in 1850 was iron-smelting, and Naohide was a dog who lifted the curtain - showing such a small face, but most of the courtiers still thought that his mentor Mr. Tanan had given him a reputation.

It wasn't until the two battles of the White Lord that Naoxiu established Xiaochang's reputation for the Western Art of War - no way, although he usually urges himself, but in fact, Fusang knows that the traditional seven schools of the Art of War may have become a gimmick, and it will definitely not work, and it must be the Western Art of War that can defeat the Westerners.

It's sad and ridiculous to say, burdened by his "lowly" background, the upper echelons of Fusang have always refused to face up to the straight show of Lanxue's talent, and in the end they still rely on the Lucia people to give him a positive name!

Of course, "Lucia lost both times

There are also many people who think so, but there is a comparison with the unlucky Harabox Pavilion pursuing Hori Rishi's fiasco, and Naohide's reputation for being good at fighting still stands - although some people later questioned it, thinking that it was his subordinates who were able to do it, and Murata Yongmin became a sweet bean bun, but in any case, "Naohide is quite capable of fighting" is still recognized by the government and the opposition.

But I don't want this fame straight show very much!

Why? Because the name is not true.

Naoxiu himself estimated that despite his hard work, he could now command at most one company in the future, that is, at most 150 people, and he didn't dare to say that he could command it well.

In fact, because there is too much water in the forum in the future, it is better to disguise the strategist - in fact, it is more likely to be an impostor.

But whether it was the first battle of the white lord, or the two battles of Miaotun that were not known to the shogunate, according to the scale, they were all tactical battles, among which Naohide was a papier-mâché signboard, and the real details of the command had little to do with him.

Therefore, the reputation of "Xiaochang Western Art of War" is a loss.

Zhixiu himself feels that he belongs to the gang that flies out of the miracle of the big brick - although the craftsmanship of the war is empty, it is okay to engage in the economy~ Okay?

In the final analysis, the response of Fusang after the opening of the country and trade, as well as the gains and losses of governance after the Restoration, are clearly analyzed by the heroes who cross the world. As one of the most active members, what he should do should be to make everyone eat well, drink well, and live well, and then beat up the robbers with advanced weapons, so Naohide is extremely dissatisfied with Oguri Tadashun - Oguri showed an innocent smile.

Zhixiu, you're not happy, what's the matter with Xiaoli?

It's a big deal!

As a good friend, you became a Kandai in the fifth year of Ansei (1858), and I ask you if you dare to agree? "Have you read the wind storytelling in the second year of Jiayong (1849) carefully?!"

In fact, Oguri Tadashun not only read it at the time, but now he also makes people work hard to copy a copy of it.

But Naoxiu was a human being in two lifetimes, and there was a problem, and now it has been changed because there are too many winds and frosts in the north, but in 1849, which stinky problem is still there, so he deserved to be ignored by no one - this stinky problem is that the details are inappropriate.

It's not that the wind tells the story that it is not detailed, among which there are a lot of Western history alone, especially when it comes to Fusang, which is even more foreign, but the bad things are bad on this, too long!

When the history of the West is written, what remains is industrial development - the organization change Zhixiu didn't dare to write, stealing overseas is the sin of killing the head, and the tiger should touch the flies on the ass again, isn't this the old man hanging himself to find death.

In the development of this industry, Zhixiu is a side-by-side solicitation, sprinkled with tens of thousands of words, I feel that I am still unsatisfied, but who can stand it.

Actually, Naoxiu felt that it might be better to divide the wind storytelling into several volumes at that time - in fact, Naoxiu's wind storytelling was jokingly called the "Seven Lucky Gods Boat Map" by some people at that time, which means that it is the same as the New Year's custom, pick up the book, look at it a few times, and get sleepy, sleep like a thief, and have no dreams until dawn all night.

What's even worse is that Naoxiu's calligraphy is not good, and the writing habits are not very correct, of course, no one can read this stinky and long wind story-who are you, nameless, surnameless, powerless, let the shogunate ministers read it hard, even if it is public, you can't embarrass people like this.

Of course, Naohide has always blamed it on the lack of punctuation at this time, "and that's where the main problem lies."

However, he himself knows that improper details are not the main reasons, but there are two main reasons:

One is that Fuso was quite peaceful at that time, the shogunate had no urgency, and he had no name or surname, let alone a guilty body, who would like to take a closer look;

The other is that the professionalism is too strong, and there is no certain Western academic foundation, let alone understand, and it is difficult to even understand. And in order to avoid stimulating the spirit of the shogun, he didn't dare to cheer loudly for the West, so he could only list the data, which made it even more noisy and tasteless.

All in all, it is natural that his own wind storytelling was not taken seriously at that time.

Afterwards, he was assigned to Jiushan, and when he communicated with Mr. Tan'an and his son, he found that Feng Shushu had committed a taboo of being in a hurry.

But now it's straight here

It's a problem that's been worn away a long time ago - it's still an environmental educator.

In 1850 he arrived at the White Master, and in 1851 he wondered what he could do.

At that time, he was quite conscious, and felt that the conditions for building an iron-making station were not yet mature, and that the small carboniferous mine was nearby, and the steam engine and machine tools were also transported through Xianheng Yangxing, so he should have some mechanical processing headquarters.

But tragedy!

These students I brought with me usually learn well from Lan Xue, at least elementary mathematics is still broad, but who knows, there is a gap between theory and practice.

Fortunately, he had a detailed operation manual brought back from the factory in the United States, and he practiced it overseas, but even so, it was not until 1853 that the white master was able to mass-produce qualified flintlock smoothbore guns - in 1852, when he returned to Fuso, and then Nakamura Gakujiro, who was in charge of the matter, smiled silently.

Then, Zhixiu also gave up this thought, the white master is waiting to be revived, or take care of eating, drinking, living and traveling first, this mechanical processing and even the industrialization later, wait for the children in the township to learn and then talk about it.

Finally, after seven years of hard work, in 1857, the first Napoleonic bronze smoothbore cannon was built by Mr. Tanan's Niriyama Iron Smelting Institute in 1854.

It was not until 1858 that the White Master was able to mass-produce the Mini breech gun - this was not a technical problem, but a market problem, the White Lord could buy better ordnance, and the industrial workers were few, and they were busy with the mine project of 1857 and the rifled breech gun project of 1858.

Funny to say, the rifled guns, rifled guns, and breech guns of the white lord were successfully copied in the same year - although the difficulty of these three is not the same.

In the final analysis, the white owner has an outsourcing channel, so the development of the industry is constrained by the number of educated population.

In 1853, the number of Dingkou of the White Lord was 2861, of which there were less than 800 Fusang people, and the rest were Ainu and Yuan Hezhe people - of course, it didn't matter who they were, and most of them were literate for less than 3 years anyway.

However, by the end of 1858, the number of lords had reached more than 24,000, and more than 1,000 real industrial workers had been trained.

During the year, the cumulative education investment of the white lord was equivalent to 218,000 small awards for Tianbao.

Although not all the money is spent on industrial workers, there is no doubt that these more than 1,000 industrial workers are the greatest educational achievement.

Although the account is not so calculated, the child is the future, and the investment of the year is not likely to bear fruit that year, but it is a good comparison to make a so-so comparison, which is equivalent to more than 200 small judgments to educate an industrial worker.

According to this algorithm, if you want to train a million industrial workers, the Naoxiu series will cost 200 million gold, which is equivalent to about 160 million pounds sterling at this time, and the British fiscal revenue in 1840 is about 52 million pounds, which is equivalent to the sum of the world's largest ~ country's fiscal revenue for 3 years!

There is a big problem with the algorithm, but it can definitely prove one point from the side, if you want to do industrialization overnight, it is really beautiful and more beautiful!

The straight show series has few people and a thin foundation, and it is understandable that it is always difficult at the beginning.

But in comparison, the shogunate with strong people and horses is always better than the Northland.

Since 1849, when Naohide returned to Fuso to offer his family property, Xianheng Foreign Company offered his treasure for the second time in 1850, and in 1851, he began to alleviate poverty in both technology and wealth, and this year in 1859, a full decade has passed, has Fuso changed?

There are definitely changes, but the progress is pitiful, isn't this a joke? Feelings are tossed so hard, it's just wearing new shoes and walking the old way!

In 1859, the fundamental reason for the farewell of Xianheng Foreign Company was that the high risk of secret trade could not be afforded.

As the director in charge of the shogunate's finances, Oguri Tadashun previously revealed that the shogunate wanted to implement a grand plan to enrich the country and strengthen the army. The day has finally come, but will the shogunate be able to do it? Naohide has been disappointed for so long and is very skeptical about it.
