Although the people of Osaka were accustomed to the docking of foreign warships, the arrival of Chinese warships aroused great interest, and in addition to the official representatives who came to greet them, many people spontaneously rushed to the port to watch.

"How mighty! It is really worthy of China that it was able to build such a mighty warship. ”

"Yes, what is the name of our Japanese self-built steamship, by the way, it is Yunxing Maru, compared to Chinese warships, what kind of thing is that!"

"Look at those Chinese soldiers, neatly dressed, fully armed, with powerful steps, and neatly lined up, not to mention that they are not comparable to our Japanese soldiers, even foreign soldiers!"

There were bursts of admiration around, and the faces of Ryoma Sakamoto, Ritsu Okubo, and Baoling, who were the main representatives, became more and more gloomy, and they felt that the Japanese were a group of heartless people, and the Chinese were here to destroy Japan, but they were good, and they were welcome.

Sakamoto Malone said with a hint of worry: "The Chinese emperor has brought so many troops, I'm afraid it will be ill-intentioned!" “

"Humph!" Tokugawa Yoshiki, who came to greet him on behalf of the shogunate, snorted coldly: "China is a world power, and the Chinese emperor is young and promising, how can he be called ill-intentioned when he travels with a guard of honor of tens of thousands of people?" I think it's because some people have ghosts in their hearts that they are afraid. “

As for the cause of Takaaki's death, although Kyoto insisted that he died of smallpox, and there was proof of nine long-term deaths, no matter how urgent the smallpox death was, it would take a few days to more than ten days of onset, and during this period, no news came at all, not to mention that people who were infected with smallpox, whether they died or not. The physical characteristics are obvious, and Hyomyung died as quickly as possible after his death. It's almost time to get to the shogunate, but even the Kyoto office hasn't seen Takaaki for the last time. How can this not be doubted?

What's more, the shogunate was hostile to the Shogunate faction, even if the Shogunate faction picked out a basket of evidence to prove that Takaaki did die of smallpox, but the shogunate could turn a blind eye, and if I said there was a problem, he just had a problem.

"Who has a ghost in their heart? Tokugawa Yoshiki, why don't you say what you want to say? Ryoma Sakamoto was like an old cat with his tail stepped on, and he jumped like thunder in an instant.

"Hmph, hum~~" Tokugawa Qingxi sneered: "I didn't say you, so eager to admit it?" Isn't this a weakness of heart or what? Sooner or later, the cause of the emperor's death will be revealed. Some of those who have committed the great sin of treason are waiting for retribution! “

Bao Ling saw that the atmosphere was tense, and hurriedly stopped: "Okay, okay, Your Excellency Wang Feng is about to go ashore, but you are still noisy, and you are not afraid of losing the face of the Japanese, all stand up and prepare to greet you, huh?" “

As he spoke. Bao Ling sighed lightly and said, "Why don't his two warships have sails?" Could it be that the Chinese have made a breakthrough in steam engine technology? “

With that, the others also looked away.

Historically, all-ironclad warships without sails were introduced at the end of the 19th century. At the level of the steam engine at the time, the amount of coal consumed if the sails were not used when cruising was extremely staggering. That's why Bao Ling was surprised.

Okubo Ritsu is uncertain: "China's steam engine technology came from the United Kingdom, even if it developed rapidly. Nor can it be a leap forward in just ten years, if I'm not mistaken. It's not that the efficiency of China's steam engine has been greatly improved, but that the Chinese emperor wants to save face and deliberately put two warships without sails out to show that his science and technology are strong, anyway, it's not too far from China to Japan, and the two warships are all burned with coal, how much can they burn? With China's national strength, it is not so calculating. “

How many years have Bao Ling dealt with Wang Feng? With his understanding of Wang Feng, this person will definitely not be happy, on the contrary, he is also very calculating, and has a strong sense of purpose, he can't dismantle the sails just to show off, is China really making a breakthrough in steam technology?

This is not good news for any European and American power, such as Britain, France, and the United States.

Bao Ling's bewildered gaze stared at the chimneys of the Li Mu and Meng Tian, which were much grander than ordinary steamships, hoping to see something.

The gas turbine needs to inhale a lot of fresh air when working, and emits a lot of exhaust gas, so compared to the steam engine, it needs a special smoke exhaust system, and the chimney is also larger, which is the easiest way to distinguish the two ships from the appearance, but even if Bao Ling wants to break the brain, it is impossible to think of the gas turbine coming out in advance, and the two ironclad ships still use the standard livery of the Chinese Navy, that is, the silver-gray hull, which is exactly the same as the armored wooden hull, and it is difficult to see the all-steel hull under the painting.

After looking at it for a moment, except for the chimney, it was not famous, Bao Ling helplessly looked away, but the Japanese women mixed in the crowd attracted him again, many Japanese girls waved enthusiastically to the Chinese soldiers, and even some women directly pulled off their clothes, or lifted their skirts for the Chinese soldiers to see, and said in their mouths such as: Oh, strong Chinese, do you see my chest is big? It must be comfortable to bury your face in, just give me a pair of shoes.

Look, let's enjoy it, I deliberately shaved it, it's clean, right? All I need is a pair of shoes if I want to come in.

The Chinese soldiers did not squint, as if what was presented in front of them was only flesh.

"Hey~~" Bao Ling couldn't help laughing, foreigners regard Japan as the Garden of Eden, although Japanese women are generally short in size, and it is popular to shave eyebrows and black teeth in makeup, but if you take a good bath and wash off the messy makeup, there are still a lot of fine products, and Japanese women are docile and open, and Bao Ling lingers in the flowers every day, constantly changing women.

Although Chinese women are significantly stronger than Japanese women in figure and appearance, but the concept of chastity is very strong, and the Chinese women who can sleep with Bao Ling are basically fireworks women, this kind of woman is not only very fake, but also lying motionless on the bed, just like the walking dead, and when you leak, she will be very calm to wipe the paper clean, and then put on clothes Shi Ran left, several times, Bao Ling completely lost interest, only occasionally when he went to the banquet of the Qing Dynasty magnates, there would be a skilled Kabuki to accompany him, but they were all in the tender eyes, hiding grievances and fears, because in the eyes of most Chinese, foreigners are covered in hair, similar to ghosts.

Who can have fun doing that with a ghost?

Japanese women are different, not only open-minded, but also rich in sources, such as housewives, young ladies who have not left the cabinet, hotel hostesses, noble ladies, geisha, all kinds of types, white people regard Japan as the Garden of Eden, indeed, Bao Ling really feels like he has come to the Garden of Eden.

But Ryoma Sakamoto and Okubo Ritsu are all ashamed and annoyed, angry faces are blue, they are not angry that Japanese women do not know self-love, seducing the Chinese army, after all, Japanese women know what virtue everyone knows, they themselves don't take it very seriously, they are angry just about offering only a pair of shoes, this is too cheap, even if they don't want money upside down, they can feel a lot more comfortable, at least the nature is different, to shoes, the same as selling, this is a loss of Japanese face, and don't want anything, it can also be understood as enthusiasm, I only want your people, not your money, and I can comfort myself in my heart.
