Very helpless,The power supply transformer of the local broadband main server was knocked down by a drunk driver.,Broadband was broken.,It took a lot of effort to buy a 3G.,It's finally updated.,Xiaoqi is really moving forward.,Apologize to everyone.,The update was late.。

The first thing Lin Haijiang did when he returned to the old port was to vigorously grasp the all-round construction of the Marine Corps and make active preparations for the next landing and occupation of Qiongya.

Looking at the more than 20,000 people who had formed five squares at the brigade level and set up on the school parade ground, Lin Haijiang's mood fluctuated when he was in the forest, this is the upper limit of the strength of the most continental team that the old port can bear, if this upper limit is exceeded, then his military deficit will be further expanded, and Lin Haijiang is still far from being able to break even.

Luo Jianping, the captain of the Marine Corps and the commander of the First Brigade, stood at the front of the military flag in blue and white camouflage, with a resolute face against the military flag fluttering in the wind.

Zhao Huiying, chief of staff of the corps, and Yuan Peng, deputy chief of staff and commander of the second brigade, lined up on either side, and on the blue military flag were two rifles crossed with shield anchors.

Yuan Peng saw Lin Haijiang walking on the school review platform, so he strode forward and shouted hoarsely: "Sing the Chinese Imperial Marine Corps anthem and welcome the flag!" Respectfully the Metropolitan Governor parade! ”

"Sing! The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying! Chinese warriors defend the sea frontier! "Sing ready!

The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying! Chinese warriors defend the sea frontier! For the people and for the public world, I vow to let the country change color!

The wind and clouds are high! How heroic the athletes of the old port! The Governor teaches to keep in mind the heart, unity, sincerity and friendship!

Forward, forward, invincible!

In the majestic singing, a team of 1,000 people walked neatly in front of Lin Haijiang, and the officers and men wore the latest camouflage combat uniforms, oxhide bullet belts with X straps, canvas cowhide combat shoes, and the latest Prussian 1857 rifles on their shoulders.

Walking in the front row of each phalanx are political trainers with thick red bars on their cuffs, and Lin Haijiang has always put ideological and political work in the first place, and an army that is not armed with politics and fights for some reason can never become an elite iron army in the true sense.

This Marine Corps can be said to be completely piled up by Lin Haijiang with silver, and the lack of land strength has always been Lin Haijiang's fatal weakness, if there are such 50,000 lions, Lin Haijiang will dare to take advantage of the opportunity of the last Anglo-French alliance to capture Dagukou and attack Gyeonggi, and directly sweep the big sweep into the garbage heap of history.

As for the punishment of the main fleet, Lin Haijiang has been thinking about it, and what Lin Haijiang misses most at this moment is wireless telegraphy, even if it is the most primitive!

The reason why Lin Haijiang is so concerned about this punishment is because his country is on the cusp of a great historical change, and this great change is the Meiji Restoration!

In Lin Haijiang's memory, in the nineteenth century, the Meiji Restoration, the four strong feudal clans of Sachang and Tufei joined forces. In Fushimi? After defeating the shogunate at the Battle of Toba, the last shogun, Tokugawa Yoshiki, was forced to return Taimasa to Emperor Meiji, and from then on, he officially entered capitalist society.

The Meiji Restoration deprived the feudal samurai class of its privileges, and the middle and upper samurai were transformed into a new bourgeoisie by buying their land with a political axe, while the lower samurai had no choice but to go bankrupt. Historically, in 1877, a rebellion broke out among the Southwest Shi clan under the leadership of Saigo Takamori, and the Southwest War was the aftermath of the Boshin War.

The Meiji Restoration, which destroyed the old feudal order and ushered in a new era, has had a profound impact on both the history of Morimoto and the history of the world. The most significant thing is that the protagonists of this restoration are not the lords of the four powerful feudal domains, but the majority of middle- and lower-level samurai and commoners.

The Meiji Restoration was an extremely significant movement and war with a revolutionary character in the history of the Morimoto, and it was also an important turning point in the history of the Shomoto. It overthrew the Tokugawa shogunate, returned Taisei to the emperor, and carried out major political, economic, and social reforms, promoting the modernization and Westernization of the shogunate. The main leaders of the Meiji Restoration were young samurai who sought to build a nation that could compete with the West under the slogan of enriching the country and strengthening the army.

It is said that the restoration of governance is almost the biggest turning point in modern times! And for its friendly neighbor China, which is a strip of water, it was only the beginning of the disaster, and the First Sino-Japanese War made Yue himself completely defeat the last trace of respect and fear for the boss empire on the other side of the sea in their bones. 18 Incident, 7. Chinese It can be said that the 14-year war has destroyed three generations of China, and these 14 years are precisely the last time the world pattern is adjusted.

Only by using powerful extraordinary means to stifle the possibility of the rise of the book and plunge the book into endless civil war and chaos can we lay a good foundation for the final sweep of the book.

What if China could emerge from World War I? However, Lin Haijiang did not want to wait that long, and the cause of the First World War was actually the Franco-Prussian War with France in 1870 and 1871 in order to unify Germany and compete with France for hegemony on the European continent.

The war ended with a great defeat for France, a complete victory for Prussia, and the establishment of the German Empire. The Franco-Prussian armistice was a very harsh treaty, which stipulated that France ceded Alsace and Lorraine to Germany and paid an indemnity of 5 billion francs. As a result, Germany and France were resentful, and the German Empire began an alliance movement in Europe in order to prevent French retaliation, and finally chose Austria-Hungary and Italy as allies, while Britain, France, and Russia, which felt deeply threatened, began to negotiate an alliance, which directly led to the emergence of an arms race around the world, and also became the main reason for the direct First World War, and the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, the crown prince of Austria-Hungary, was just the first domino to fall.

Lin Haijiang once asked the financial director Cluna to estimate that he had taken away seven armored protection cruisers in Prussia, and there were still two capital ships to complete the final assembly from the Hamburg shipyard in the near future, counting the six new fast fully protected armored cruisers with a standard displacement of 5,500 tons and thirty large torpedo boats that had already paid a deposit to start laying keels, and in addition to the boiler replacement and artillery replacement of the previous seven warships, Lin Haijiang's silver flowed into the pockets of the Prussians like flowing water. Exactly seventeen million taels of silver.

This does not include the construction costs of the old port and Mawei, especially the fortifications of the fortress fortifications of the railway around the island in the old port, as well as a large number of rifles and artillery, military uniforms, supplies and so on used by the marines.

If it weren't for Lin Haijiang's way of secretly looting and making money while selling drugs and opium, I'm afraid this would have been ruined dozens of times!

Lin Haijiang believes that the input of such a huge amount of funds will also play a certain role for Prussia, you must know that these funds of Prussia have basically been converted into advanced army rifles and high-quality, powerful, practical and excellent Krupp artillery, Lin Haijiang believes that at this moment, looking at the world, the Prussian Army's weapons and equipment and tactical concepts are still ahead of the rest of the world for at least ten years, maybe Prussia will not be able to resist declaring war on France in advance for the sake of strong unification?

And if the Franco-Prussian War broke out earlier? So will the First World War be detonated just as early? However, according to Prussia's current national strength, it will take at least about 5 years to prepare for the war against France, but the course of history often requires an iron-fisted figure to turn the tide, such as the unified German Chancellor Otto. Feng. Bismarck, known as the Iron Chancellor, was born on April 1, 1815 in Prussia to a noble family of the Grand Junkers at the Altmark Schörnhausen estate in Brandenburg, Prussia. Bismarck was well educated from an early age, having studied law, history and foreign languages at the Universities of Göttingen and Berlin. During his college years, he had a staggering 27 duels with his classmates. Bismarck, who served in the military after graduation, was strong and brutal, and could do whatever it took to pursue his goals, with a realistic attitude.

Historically, he was appointed Minister to Russia in 1859 and Minister to France in 1861. In 1862, he became Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of Prussia, and pursued an iron-blooded policy, advocating the unification of Germany by Prussia through war, and then launched wars against Denmark, Austria and France, gradually realizing the unification of Germany.

Because Lin Haijiang could not get out and go to Prussia, otherwise Lin Haijiang really wanted to have a meeting with the historical celebrity he admired, according to the news transmitted by the relevant personnel in Prussia, the young and powerful Bismarck was rising at a miraculous speed, and Bismarck was very interested in the Oriental Admiral who also implemented the policy of reading talents, nationalism, and iron blood, and repeatedly claimed that it was an Oriental nobleman who gave Prussia the possibility of rapid rise!

Lin Haijiang is only now realizing that it doesn't seem to be a good thing to know the historical process? How can you not be troubled by being in the middle of it? In fact, Lin Haijiang also understands that his real troubles are the random and unpredictable surnames of historical changes.

At this moment, in the war room of the Zhiyuan ship, Ma Jiang, Ma Tao, Tang Zhiqiang, Li Anmin, and Wang Cunyi, commander of the Marine Corps, repeatedly observed the topography and port location of the Yueben Islands in front of the huge sand table.

It can be said that this was the last large-scale meeting of all senior commanders before the war, and Wang Gang, an intelligence advisory staff officer of the General Staff Headquarters, read aloud with an expressionless face: "At this time, the country was in the Edo Shogunate period, natural disasters continued, and the rule of the shogunate was unbearable like the Qing court. In addition, the shogunate's financial difficulties made most of the middle- and lower-ranking samurai dissatisfied with the shogunate. At the same time, the Western imperialist powers used strong ships and cannons to open the doors of their own countries, which had been closed for more than 200 years, and the import of a large number of capital commodities caused the small craftsmen of the country to quickly go bankrupt, and the country was in chaos. ”

Wang Gang paused for a moment and continued: "The following is a speculative consultation from my intelligence analysis department, and we expect that under the dual pressure of such internal and external troubles, the domestic political pattern will undergo earth-shaking changes, because the vast majority of ordinary people have gradually realized that only by overthrowing the rule of the corrupt shogunate, just like the rule of the Qing court, and learning from the capitalist countries, is the way to prosperity and strength. According to recent information, the samurai of the Satsuma and Choshu feudal domains played an important role in the movement to overthrow the shogunate, and it is necessary to point out that it was the Satsuma and Choshu feudal domains that confiscated the largest amount of our finances and directly led to the death of many of our legitimate merchants. ”

As soon as Wang Gang's words fell, Li Anmin said bluntly: "Staff Officer Wang, please pay attention to one point, don't add your own words and analysis of your temporary intentions to the intelligence consultation text, this is an extremely important meeting of senior military commanders, and your words are likely to affect the commander's operational intentions and strategic and tactical determination. ”

Wang Gang's face turned red, and he gave a military salute to everyone in the room, and then continued: "It is said that the main silver mines, gold mines, steel and copper in the country are in the hands of the feudal town, as the fourteenth general of the Tokugawa shogunate, Tokugawa Ieshige can be said to be a major general, and the finances have gone bankrupt, and the Tokugawa shogunate must first strengthen its finances if it wants to restore its rule, but the Tokugawa shogunate has been unable to get the taxes that should be paid from the feudal town for nearly thirty years, and this behavior of the Tokugawa shogunate will be greatly resisted by the feudal town. As the ideology of the founding of the Imperial Sect in the country intensified, the authority of the Shogunate, which had become a state of semi-civil strife, would be further weakened, and it would eventually lead Tokugawa Yoshiki to return power to the so-called Imperial Court. ”

Ma Jiang nodded, expressing his praise for Wang Gang's excellent intelligence analysis, while Li Anmin frowned and said, "So does the Intelligence Analysis Department have any specific suggestions or measures?" ”

Wang Gang nodded solemnly: "Our strategy is to provide comprehensive assistance to Tokugawa Ieshige, the fourteenth general of the Tokugawa shogunate, especially from the military aspect, a large number of weapons are exported, instructors are provided to help him train troops to suppress the rebellion, and a delicate balance is controlled with arms, so that this costly war can continue for a long time, and the last trace of vitality will be exhausted." ”

Li Anmin nodded after listening to Wang Gang's suggestion, turned around and respectfully smiled at Shen Tianfu, the only one in this room who was not a soldier: "Lord Shen, the specific matter of negotiating with the fourteenth general of the Tokugawa Shogunate, Tokugawa Ieshige, will be handed over to you, and we will cooperate with the propaganda in the political aspect, claiming that it is because the Satsuma and Choshu feudal domains confiscated the finances of our legitimate merchants and caused casualties, for the purpose of punishment and admonition, Admiral Lin Haijiang is willing to see the friendly Tokugawa Shogunate continue to govern, He was willing to borrow money as collateral for mineral development rights to help him train troops to quell rebellions. ”

Shen Tianfu nodded and said: "The general policy direction has been explained clearly by the Metropolitan Governor before leaving, now it's up to you to be soldiers, we have to sing a big drama to Xiao Yueben, you act well, I will speak more powerfully!" ”

After the meeting was dismissed, the ships began to set sail with increased pressure, and went straight to Edo Bay Pond in the southwest wind, Ma Jiang stood in the command position and smiled at Li Anmin beside him: "Before leaving, the Metropolitan Governor explained, Emperor Ben has always wanted to change the name of Edo to Tokyo, and the name of Edo Bay Pond to Tokyo Bay, if the Tokugawa shogunate completely fails, Edo will change its name!" The Metropolitan Governor meant that he was absolutely not allowed to change his name, even at the cost of bombarding Edo, and the other was the shelling of the Martyrs' Shrine, the Metropolitan Governor said very vaguely, I asked the people from the Ministry of Intelligence, and they didn't know, it may be the place where I enshrined the soldiers killed in the war! Instructions must be razed to the ground. ”

Li Anmin was also at a loss for Lin Haijiang's inexplicable order, so he had to haha: "You are the commander of the fleet, you are in charge, if you really can't do it, send the expeditionary force reconnaissance detachment of the Marine Corps to reconnoitre, and if it is not within the range of the naval guns, send the Marine Corps to destroy it." ”

In Edo Castle, which is full of low wooden houses, the only thing that is worthy of praise is the wide and clean streets, but the pedestrians on the side of the road seem very weak, and the occasional samurai walk by looks listless, and many of the samurai even hang their colors, and the wounds that have just been bandaged are still oozing blood.

In the palace of the Great Commander of the Seiyi in the center of the city, the samurai wearing the headdress of Nakatsu is hurrying in small steps, repeatedly passing a broken flag?

Tokugawa Ieshige, the fourteenth general of the Tokugawa shogunate, is sitting in it, and although Tokugawa Ieshige, who is only about one hundred and forty centimeters tall, is only thirteen years old, he shows an unusual shock and respect, although at this moment the lords of the various feudal towns have complaints about the shogunate, but it is the first time that the two feudal clans of Satsuma and Choshu dare to send troops to attack Edo Wantang, but it is the so-called difficult beginning of everything, and now the feudal towns around the country are staring at the two feudal domains of Satsuma and Choshu, and a big storm seems to be brewing, However, the spotless treasury had no silver to support, and without money, there were naturally no military generals, and the only three banners of the Shogun's Mansion were Miki Kimoto, Tada Kimoto, and Matsui Kimoto who were struggling to resist the 30,000 troops of the Satsuma and Choshu feudatories in Edo Bay.

3,000 against 30,000 people, relying on the earthen ramparts of Edo Bay? Just now, the samurai sent Tada Kimoto's battle flag, and the entire flag team was loyal to the jade.

Tokugawa Ieshige took a deep breath, there are at least more than 20,000 samurai in this Edo Castle right now, but there is no way to recruit troops without money, and some wandering samurai have already run to the opposite side these days, how can this not make Tokugawa Ieshige anxious?

The mess left by the previous shogun, Tokugawa Ieda, must be cleaned up after all, or someone will be unlucky.
