Chapter 854: The Wings of a Butterfly

The goose feathers were falling heavily, and it was already a little smaller than last night's blizzard. But the cold wind from the north still blows in people's faces, like a knife cutting.

A few days ago, a cold snap swept through the northern tip of Japan, and it snowed heavily on half of the island of Honshu.

A group of Japanese death row inmates who had been tied up with flowers staggered forward along the frozen and snow-covered river, shivering as they went. I don't know if it's scared or cold.

The cotton clothes of these rioting Japanese civilians had already been stripped off, and now they were wearing dirty coarse cloth coats, with the same dirty strips of cloth tied to their belts, and the cold wind blew into their open collars, it was really cold. Many people's faces were frozen, and there was a layer of spider webs on their cheeks, and if you looked closely, they were all cracks, and their hands hurt a lot.

And behind this group of Japanese rioters, a Japanese New Army officer wearing warm fur clothes walked behind this group of people, where did he learn the locomotive hat from China is also the standard configuration of the Japanese New Army in winter, the top is full of snow, one foot deep and one foot shallow walking in the snow, and the mouth is scolding: "A group of red deer, really looking for their own death." If you dare to initiate a rebellion, and after receiving relief from the shogunate, you still don't repent, and still gather and loot, each of you deserves it. What's more, the samurai of one of our regiments are not stable in the winter, and they have to run out to clean up in such weather, and it is really cheap to kill you with one sword, and you all deserve to enjoy the torture of a thousand knives! ”

The officer with a katana hanging from his waist behind him snorted calmly: "Saito-kun, let's say a few words, are you still interested in talking in such a cold weather?" I don't even want to open my mouth......"

The officer named Saito also snorted coldly: "I'm also cold, that's why I'm angry." Oda-kun, you are a judge, we are a regular field army, in order to catch this group of rebels, you know how much our battalion has suffered. These poor ghost mobs deserve to die! It's just that it's too cheap to cut them with a knife, and they should be executed at Ling Chi! ”

The establishment of the Japanese New Army was evolved from the Chinese National Defense Force, and their military sources all came from the samurai class. Just like the path taken by the Japanese in the history of the original plane, the opportunity to serve as a soldier in Japan now still belongs to the 'elite' samurai class, rather than to the larger and wider civilian population. The latter is not qualified to serve as a soldier.

As a result, the Japanese reformers in the previous life were infighting, because the entire Japanese army was limited, and the faction led by Saigo Takamori firmly defended the interests of the samurai class, while the opposition led by Okubo Toshimichi advocated expanding the scope of military recruitment to all classes in Japan. In addition, this difference in philosophy led to a different plan of governance, and the samurai faction turned into a rapid conscription faction for its own interests, that is, to attack Korea as soon as possible, and then attack China; The opposition, on the other hand, took into account Japan's own lack of strength more rationally and turned into a delayed conscription.

For this reason, the little devil broke out as early as 1874 An invasion of Taiwan, that is, Okubo Ritsu, who was in charge of the Tokyo regime, in order to appease the samurai group led by Saigo Takamori, asked Saigo Takamori's younger brother Saigo Congdao to lead 3,000 troops to attack Taiwan.

It turned out that Japan's strength at that time was really not very good. Then, the increasingly acute contradictions between the two sides finally broke out into the last civil war on the path of Japan's rise - the Southwest War.

The samurai faction, led by Saigo Takamori, paid with their lives, but they paved the way for the rise of Japan and 'dug up' the last stumbling block for the rise of Japan.

Today's Japanese New Army still belongs to the 'samurai faction', and the shogunate has 30,000 new troops and 5,000 guards under the hands of diplomatic generals. The number of new armies in the hands of the daimyo in Japan is also increasing little by little, but the total number of troops is declining step by step. The number of new troops in Japan as a whole is only 60,000 or 70,000.

Right now, it's a scene taking place outside the Sendai Domain Castle in Tohoku, Japan. The new shogunate army, which had attacked in the wind and snow, with the cooperation of the Sendai feudal army, finally eliminated a large mob army that had been hiding in the mountains for a long time, killing more than 200 people and capturing more than 300 people.

"yes. These poor devils have caused you a lot of trouble. A sigh flashed on Xiao Tian's face, these people really made the troops hate, if it weren't for these people being hated by the troops, they would be determined to kill, more than three hundred people, sold to the Chinese for a lot of money.

Xiao Tian's heart is even more painful, he has lost a fortune.

Yes.

In the riots and riots caused by famine and disaster relief in Japan in recent years, few of the rioters who were caught were pardoned. Because after the resignation of Tanuma Yoshiji, the Tokugawa shogunate had already issued a decree, although it was not an amnesty, but it was almost there. The above means that the people who participated in riots and riots because of the shogunate's inadequate disaster relief work are now returning to good citizens, and the shogunate can be blamed for the past. And if they are obsessed, then wait for the shogunate's iron fist of justice, and when it comes to death, don't say that the shogunate has not given them a chance.

And the fact is that those captured rebels, except for a part of the leaders and key elements who were cut off their heads, the remaining seven or eight out of ten were sold to the Chinese, and then hello and I am good, everyone will share the money together. But the current group of people is so annoying that not only the leaders will be stabbed, but even those little minions will not be able to die well.

This group was followed by instructors from China, the total number of the shogunate's new army was only about 30,000, and the instructors who were initially selected were those who stood up for the team, and many Japanese feudal lords hired instructors from the front team to train the new army for themselves. However, Tokugawa Ieji could not afford to lose this man, and insisted on hiring active officers from the regular Chinese army.

There was a Chinese instructor in the team of New Army soldiers who executed the prisoners, and he had been in Japan for almost four years, but he still shook his head with a sigh when he saw blood splashing on the white snow. This is not to be disappointed that they have lost an income, the Japanese army and the government want to do business with Chinese labor companies, and these instructors from China are among the 'intermediaries', and the income after each transaction is very high.

But at the moment, this instructor is really not sad about the money, he really feels ...... and sorry for these dead Japanese.

Yes, regrets.

This scene in Japan is a standard official coercion and civil rebellion, and everything is for a bite to eat. This is not the time of the Warring States Period, not to mention that the Tokugawa Shogunate has Chen Han's support behind it, even if the Tokugawa Shogunate is only its own strength, it is only a matter of time before it is only a matter of time before all the rebels and rebellious people are exterminated.

But the Japanese dealt with the problem in a ruthless way.

Just like the scene in front of me, it is just that a new army is unhappy and unhappy, and more than 300 Japanese who should have survived are all dead, and more than 200 lives.

After following out and seeing a lot of blood, the instructor followed the troops back to Miyagi. He saw his companion slumped over the bed, reading a newspaper. "Look at that Global Times."

The instructor walked over to the table, picked up the newspaper, and asked, "What's wrong?" Any bad news? "In the minds of the instructors, it is impossible for the Wehrmacht to defeat the battle.

"The Ottomans fought a defeated battle. In the field battle on the banks of the Lemnik River, the 100,000-strong army of the Ottoman Grand Vizier Yusuf was defeated by the 40,000 Russian-Austrian troops led by Suvorov, and the Ottomans lost as many as 30,000 troops. Fortunately, behind the battlefield there were also fortresses such as Ochakov, Bingerry, Hajibei and Akerman, so that Potemkin did not dare to command the Russian army to take advantage of the victory to develop an offensive on the other side of the Danube, but only stormed and captured the Hajibey fortress. ”

The instructor's mood disappeared with the words of his companions, and he shook the newspaper in his hand, and he had no interest in opening it up to read the report carefully.

"The Ottomans are too uncompetitive."

100,000 people can't defeat 40,000 coalition troops, it's just a fantasy. This thing is so incredible in the eyes of the instructor.

"The rockets made by the Ottomans themselves were filled with sand, and their own rockets could not be blown up, but the rockets of the Russians and Austrians came one by one, and of course they exploded."

The words of the fellow instructors were full of contempt for the Ottomans, what a rotten country, a rotten government. It is really too bold for someone to dare to replace the gunpowder in it with sand, which is such a heavy weapon of the country. And the gunpowder that was replaced may be saltpeter or sulfur used to make gunpowder, so what did those people dare to do?

This Ottoman is the leftover bun in the bucket of rancid water, rotten.

Thanks to this instructor colleague, he is still more optimistic about Ottoman, where did he want to get the No.1 in this heavenly world, it turned out to be just rotten inside the quilt - the surface is good!

In fact, it was not only the two instructors sent by China to Japan who were disappointed in the Ottoman Empire, but thousands of Chinese people on the mainland knew the news long before they knew the news.

Just like the reaction of these two instructors, first in disbelief, then in disappointment.

The reason for the crushing defeat of the 100,000 Ottoman army is also incredible. It's really better than meeting a stupid commander on the battlefield and losing a big game.

China's military-industrial system can keep the big secret of 'rockets' for so many years, but the Ottoman military-industrial system has such a bold corrupt official moth, is this a little bit of a big gap?

Such a country really makes people not have the slightest confidence in it.

This is just like when the Internet era came in the later generations, thousands of netizens suddenly saw a 'historical note', during the Battle of Salhu, when Yang Hao was playing the oath meeting in Shenyang, the officer drew his sword to kill the cow and sacrifice the flag, but he couldn't kill and kill, and finally he could only slaughter the cow with Shang Fang's sword. The fierce general Liu Zhaosun played martial arts, but the head of the gun fell directly, and the general Jun Song was also killed by an arrow through the helmet in Jiefanzhai......

As soon as these 'black information' were posted, thousands of netizens immediately believed that they were true, and as a result, the rumors became ironclad facts.

At first glance, people completely lost confidence in Zhu Ming.

But I don't know whether the brains of countless netizens are human brains or pig brains.

Could it be that Shang Fang's sword can kill a cow? Not to mention whether there is such a Shang Fang sword, even if there is, it is a big disrespect?

Are all people in the Ming Dynasty stupid? Before killing cattle and performing martial arts, will you not know a priori to look at the weapon? And a general like Juniper, the weapons will be extremely different, the iron helmet has been rusted, the Ming Ministry of Industry painted a layer of paint on the outside and allocated it to Liaodong Town as a genuine product, but a stray arrow on the battlefield actually pierced the iron helmet of a general like Juniper and shot him to death on the spot.

Some people still believe in such 'notes', and some people believe that they are true, and they are so strange. [The author also believed it at the beginning, and his senses for the Ming Dynasty could be said to have plummeted, but then he thought about it, how could this be true? The Japanese officer encountered Wang Ba's box and knew that he would save money to buy a foreign pistol at the military service agency. Juniper has money to support his family, but he doesn't have money to buy a good helmet, what is the truth about this? Or maybe the Ming court allowed the generals to keep private soldiers, but they were able to strictly prohibit them from obtaining cutting-edge weapons, which is really a great miracle of administrative ability. 】

This is just like the legend that the wild boar skin started from the Three Kingdoms, and the Tartar up and down all regarded it as a treasure. If Luo Guanzhong knows underground, he will inevitably feel fortunate in three lives. This new person has an IQ of 250.

But to be honest, after the disgusting death of the Ottoman Empire reached Chen Ming's ears, it made this Emperor Chen sigh and feel a lot of emotion. This is a good thing that I did in the original time and space.

Unexpectedly, in this time and space, the pseudo-Qing Dynasty has been finished, but this kind of strange thing still appeared in the Ottoman Empire.

For Chen Ming, a traverser, the feeling is particularly complicated.

But this feeling did not obscure Chen Ming's foresight as a traverser emperor, he felt that in this war, the Ottomans were afraid that they would kneel again. Because it was already the winter of 1789 in the Western calendar.

Historically, the Great Revolution in France has already taken place.

I don't know if the 50 million Chinese dollars were sent to Paris, for Louis XVI, for the Bourbons, this money really has the potential to change his fate.

Chen Ming had already expected this when he took out this money. But he decided to take it out anyway!

For he believed that the poor financial troubles of France and the sharp contradictions between the king and the Estates-General could not be solved by a mere fifty million dollars.

50 million Chinese dollars, at first glance it sounds really not small. But when you actually put it into account, that's just £1.1 million.

Louis XVI's troubles could not be solved by even 11 million pounds, let alone 1.1 million pounds.

While a butterfly flapping its wings can create a storm, it's only possible.

Archimedes said, give me a fulcrum, and I will be able to pry the earth. But that 50 million Chinese dollars is definitely not the fulcrum!

It won't change the fate of France!
