Chapter 581: Deserved
Now Guoxing is a strong soldier and a strong family, and it is not the time to kneel and lick it at the beginning, and the British have made such a big incident, of course he has to take revenge. So when he returned to Changchun, Guoxing'a didn't care about the raging fire in Jilin's backyard, and directly began to deploy retaliation against the British, and his target was Japan.
It seems that it was a bit wrong to take revenge on the British but clean up Japan, but Goxinga, who has a well-developed intelligence system, did not mistake the target. Although it cannot be said that the British single-handedly carried out the activities of the Restoration of Japan, the British also made great efforts in it, and the vanguard of the British in Japan was also the Rothschild family. Goxinga's attack on Japan can not only repair the British, but also teach the righteous masters who are doing things in North Manchuria.
Moreover, in addition to their own interests in Japan, the British did not have the intention of supporting Japan to contain North Manchuria. The Russians had already suffered a great defeat in the Far East, and the British were in dire need of a dumb man to charge for them, and Japan was very much in line with the requirements of the British in every way. Moreover, the Japanese were in a much worse geopolitical environment than the Russians, and they wanted to get ahead, and there was almost no way out except for fighting North Manchuria. Even if there is no British behind the scenes, the little devils will try their best to develop towards the mainland, so the goals of the two sides are naturally the same. From the day he crossed, he was holding back to clean up the little devil's Goxinga, and he had to find an excuse to repair Japan if he had nothing to do, not to mention that there was such a reason as Sakhalin this time.
Speaking of the British investment in Japan, we have to start with Sakamoto Ryoma, because Sakamoto Ryoma is the main financial channel for the British forces to support the Shogunate faction. Two years before the Shogunate War, Ryoma Sakamoto and others used the naval skills they had learned under the shogunate to establish Kameyama Kaisho to transport supplies by sea and to engage in intermediary business in the shipping industry.
In the beginning, Kameyama was able to bring foreign ships purchased by the Satsuma clan from Nagasaki back to Satsuma, and later traded weapons with the isolated Choshu domain, making a huge profit. After the establishment of the anti-shogunate stalwart Sacho Alliance, they supported each other through the Kameyama Society's weapon procurement channel. The Satsuma Domain purchased the steamship "Unicorn" for the Choshu Domain in the name of the Satsuma Domain, which played a decisive role in the later wars. However, the development of Kameyama was not always smooth, and soon fell into the suicide of the main person in charge due to accepting bribes, as well as various business setbacks, and Sakamoto Ryoma had to disband Kameyama Society. In order to realize his ambitions, Ryoma Sakamoto had to accept financial assistance from the Tosa Domain, and later formed a sea aid team.
Sakamoto Ryoma's trading company business failed, but why did he continue to send money to the people who had fallen behind the scenes? The key behind him was the support of the British. It is no secret that the British support the forces of the Downfall, and the British equipment of the Southwest Heroic Domain, fools know what is going on. The French also vigorously supported the shogunate for the benefit of Japan, and Boss Wang under Goxinga also poured out guns and cannons to Japan, but the British entered deeper than others.
Behind Ryoma Sakamoto is Gulaba, who was born in Scotland in 1838. At the age of 20, Gulaba came to Shanghai, China from England to develop his career. In the second year of Japan's founding, the young Gulaba traveled to Nagasaki and soon became a well-known Japanese tea exporter. Gulaba then became Nagasaki's number one foreign trader by operating a lucrative ship and weapons trade, and Boss Wang, who only sold weapons, was not as big as his business. But Mr. Gulaba was not a self-made entrepreneur, and there was someone behind him, who was an employee of the Rothschilds' Marseillon Chamber of Commerce, which he had also sent to Shanghai and then to Nagasaki as an agent for Japan. Therefore, behind Mr. Gulaba is the shadow of the Rothschilds, and the money he provides to the Southwest Princes is also all the money of the Rothschilds. It is precisely because of the huge financial support of the Rothschild family that the southwestern feudal clans have the ability to resist the huge shogunate, and it is precisely because of the Rothschild family's money that Tokugawa Keiki will be defeated so simply.
There is no way for Goxinga to get the Japanese government not to repay the Rothschilds, but he has a way to make the short-term investment of the Rothschilds firmly stuck in Japan. Guo Xing'a, who was born in social sciences, also understands some basic concepts of financial warfare, but he can't figure out how to fight a financial war with the Rothschilds. So Guo Xinga still does what he does best, directly moves guys, and fights proxy wars. When I used to watch TV series, Guo Xing'a felt that Matsudaira Rongbao, a handsome guy, was very good, with a loyal and dead heart, and he was a person worthy of respect wherever he went. So this time, Goxinga decided to support Matsudaira Rongbao in stages, so that the devil's civil war would continue endlessly. As long as the devil's civil war continues, the Rothschilds will not want to recover the dividends of their investment in Japan, and the goal of disgusting the British and dragging down the Rothschilds will be achieved. It is precisely because Guo Xing'a has such an idea that Zou Degui and Iwakura will be determined before the negotiations, depending on the outcome of the negotiations.
Iwakura Gushi's brazenness made North Manchurian work together and decided to give the Japanese a good look. So Asano, who had been waiting for a month in Nihonmatsu, got the amazing good news that Uesugi Yuyuki, who had participated in the war privately, had not been punished in any way, and Dalian had sent 1,500 mercenaries to support him. Guo Xing's attitude is very clear, he is to make the British understand that a big country does not have power and scheming, and in the face of absolute strength, stabbing a knife in the back will only cause endless trouble for himself.
Asano Ruesugi led his 500 guards to stay behind Nihonmatsu, and he and Niwa Kazunaku personally went to Hara Pugang to welcome reinforcements from Dalian. Because of the 1,500 soldiers who came to the aid this time, there was a special commander - the new political commissar of the mercenary division. Asano didn't know who the commissar was, but he knew that the commissar was a young man who had just been promoted. At a young age, he was able to take over as the political commissar of the mercenary division, and this new partner must have been born in Manchurian aristocracy and had good ability. So whether it's out of gratitude for his new partner, Chisato for help, or from the perspective of coordinating the relationship, Asano has to greet it himself. As for Niwa Ichigaku, it's a real deal. As soon as the new government army arrived, this uncle was ready to commit suicide by seppuku, and now that he has hope of life, of course he must firmly grasp it.
"Shanyu, you're here too! And what about the new commissars? Among the first people to disembark from the port, Asano found an acquaintance.
"Division Commander, please take a lot of attention! I will be your future political commissar! Shanyu smiled shyly.
