Chapter 522: If it's right for you, make a price!

In fact, not only were the footbasin chicken red deer who received the order to be crushed by the ronin insufficiently prepared, but even the bigwigs who issued the order were deeply surprised by such a large-scale rebellion in the bitter cold of Hokkaido.

Although many bigwigs, including Ito Hirobumi, have declared that the "Republic of Ezo" will not be allowed to happen again, there are few people who are pessimistic about the fact that ronins can make big waves in Hokkaido.

Even if a so-called "Ezo Republic" was established by the remnants of the shogunate a few decades ago, it only survived for 125 days, and there was no political soil or resources suitable for fighting the emperor's regime.

So is it really Lu Xiaobei, the intelligence leader who became a monk halfway, who made a mistake? Obviously, the "Euphrates" plan, which has been held by the crowd for so long, could not have been so brain-dead.

Lu Xiaobei never thought of betting all his chips on those politically frustrated ronin, although these ronins have conflicts in terms of interests with the current ruling class of the footbasin chicken, but once they find out that there are external forces involved, it is difficult to ensure that the ronin, who are also of the Yamato clan, will not compromise with the Meiji government.

Like the that Eagle Chan is doing in Syria, if you want to mess up a place completely, you'll have to complicate things as much as you can!

In Syria, Eagle Sauce supported the Kurds, and now, in Hokkaido at the end of the 19th century, Lu Xiaobei intends to support the Ainu who are being suppressed by the foot basin chicken.

Unlike the Yamato, which originated in China, the Ainu were native to Japan and were widely distributed in the Japanese archipelago at the end of the Paleolithic or early Neolithic period. From the 15th century onwards, the Yamato began to shrink the living space of the Ainu people, and by the end of the 19th century, the Ainu were struggling to survive in the bitter cold of Hokkaido, and their population had dropped to less than 30,000.

Although the last time the Ainu revolted was in the late 18th century, when they rebelled against the local feudal lords. moved, but the emperor, who was bent on thinking that there was only one nation in the four islands, did not intend to let them go. The Meiji government issued edicts prohibiting them from communicating in the Ainu language, and even strictly prohibiting any traditional Ainu practices such as hunting, fishing, and rituals. The Ainu were also forced to learn Japanese and had to change their names.

In the original time and space, after Emperor MacTai carried out a series of reforms on the footpot chicken after World War II, the Ainu people, whose national consciousness was gradually awakened, dared to actively carry out various activities to save their own national traditional culture, and carried out fierce protest movements from time to time. After decades of struggle, in 1997 the government finally introduced a series of policies to protect the human rights of the Ainu people and revitalize the Ainu culture. It was not until 2008 that the Footbasin Chicken government recognized the Ainu people as indigenous people for the first time and confirmed the status of the Ainu in Hokkaido's history. However, at this time, there was no difference between the Ainu and the Indians who were kept in captivity in their own fields.

"Mr. Minister, we have fulfilled our part of the Secret Covenant, should you also express it?" Huang Xiaolei swept the bear skin and fox fur sent by the Russian minister Casini and said leisurely.

"Your Excellency, we are ready to negotiate the boundary survey, and I think that the land we give up will definitely increase the prestige of His Royal Highness the Prince!" Cassini was clearly aware of the itch of the young lady of the lawyer—the honorific title of the Chancellor.

"I'm not in a hurry to survey the border, what I want to know is if you have gathered enough Ainu? I'm talking about the Ainu who can fight with a gun! Miss Litigator said.

In fact, in addition to living on the Japanese islands, the Ainu are also widely distributed in Kamchatka and Siberia. The Ainu people who lived in Tsarist Russia also spoke the Ainu language, which belongs to the Malay-Polynesian language family.

"Well, yes, as promised, we have enough of an Ainu army of a thousand men. God testifies that we have done everything we can to give them military training, but they are still a certain distance from real soldiers! Obviously, efficiency was not a characteristic of Maozi at this time, and Cassini had already excused his own procrastination.

"We don't need them to fight like regular troops, we just need to keep the Ainu's nature of fishing and hunting. Well, I wonder if His Majesty the Tsar is interested in these small islands? As she spoke, the young lady pointed her finger on a few small black dots on the map.

"South Kuril Islands?" Cassini asked quietly.

Dog X, the old lady is not sure that she is right, you blurted out!? It seems that you haven't been staring at these islands for a day or two!

Hokkaido is bordered by the Sea of Japan to the west, the Pacific Ocean to the south, and the Sea of Okhotsk to the northeast. Adjacent to Honshu in the southwest by the Tsugaru Strait and separated by the La Perouse Strait in the north, it is a strategic place to control the two gorges, and is known as the "key to the north gate of Japan". The four islands of Kunashir, Seto, Hamai, and Shikotan, which are located between the Kamchatka Peninsula and Hokkaido, are called the four northern islands, and the South Kuril Islands are called by Maozi.

At the Yalta Conference in 1945, Eagle Sauce and John Niu promised Maozi that after the war, they would be able to acquire all the territory of South Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands, and signed the Yalta Agreement. Immediately after the unconditional surrender of the footbasin chicken, Maozi declared the occupation of the above-mentioned area in accordance with the Yalta Agreement, making it Soviet territory.

In the 1951 Treaty of San Francisco, Chapter II, "Territory", it was agreed that the Footpot Chicken would renounce all rights and claims to the territories acquired after the Portsmouth Peace of 1905, including the Kuril Islands and the southern part of Sakhalin.

However, the scope of the Kuril Islands was not specified in this article, and at the time of the signing, the scope of renunciation subsequently adopted by the Footbasin Chicken Congress included Kunashl and Iturup Islands, but the Soviet Union did not sign this peace treaty at that time.

In 1956, Maozi and Footpot Chicken signed the "Soviet-Japanese Joint Declaration", but because the two countries could not reach a consensus on the sovereignty of the South Kuril Islands at that time, the Footbasin Chicken Congress canceled the resolution to give up Kunashir Island and Iturup Island in February 1956, that is, it announced that it would not give up the "legitimate sovereignty of the four northern islands"; Therefore, at the time of the final signing, the USSR and Japan did not reach any agreement on the territorial dispute, and there was nothing in the declaration to that effect.

The South Kuril Islands have always been regarded by successive Soviet and Russian leaders as "four unsinkable aircraft carriers", and Sledgehammer once said: "They are the spoils of war that countless Soviet servicemen have bought with their blood, and no one has the right to take them away." ”

Obviously, the phrase "no inch of land is superfluous." "It has its bloodline, even if the entire Far East Sea is shrouded in the horror of being dominated by BB63's 406 water pipe, Maozi still has the extravagant hope of taking chestnuts from the fire, and he really doesn't want to pull down an inch!

Hum! If you're interested, it's easy to do it, as far as John Bull's polar bear agrees with us, as long as you want to get involved there, I can pull Niu Niu into the game!

I don't believe it, just the foot basin chicken house, a little big nose, a few families take turns to stage a full martial arts on it, and they can't smash the little bit of belongings you have saved!?

"Yes, it's the South Kuril Islands! His Royal Highness meant that he was willing to support His Majesty the Tsar in acquiring these islands that could influence the two gorges, as long as the price was right. Miss Litigator flickered.

Although the "Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Great Song Dynasty" has always implemented a foreign policy of zero tolerance for territorial issues, at this time, the face of the young lady of the lawsuit is almost saying that we are really not distressed to sell other people's things, and you can make a price if you look suitable!
