Chapter 505: Conquest and Plunder (11)
Chang Fa said: "After I met Mr. Houlong, I found that although he had an inexplicable ill feeling towards our slave country, what he really cared about this time was only to search for elixir magic weapons in my country and find the bad luck of the cultivators' spirits. Mr. Houlong, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, did not know that since the emperor ordered the development of science and technology throughout the country, he had already decided to abandon the ancestral elixir magic weapon, and if it was not for the dissuasion of the general and others, the emperor was even ready to destroy all the elixir magic weapons that had been treasured in the past dynasties, leaving only the three artifacts of the country, in order to show the determination of all the people to develop science wholeheartedly. Now, we can borrow the hand of Mr. Houlong to scavenge all the elixirs and magic weapons in the territory of the country of Enunu, and eliminate the thoughts of some stubborn and old-fashioned people who are not enlightened, and it would be better if we could sweep away all the cultivators, elves and ghosts in the territory -- these are the natural opponents of the emperor's promotion of science, and Mr. Houlong's action will save us our strength. From now on, I will entrust the slave country to wholeheartedly promote science and completely abandon the original cultivation of the five elements spiritual power!"
If Guo Dalu was at the scene, he would definitely be dumbfounded by the coincidence of history, you must know that in the original time and space, in the face of the invasion of the West, the foot basin country abandoned Asia and entered Europe without hesitation, and desperately learned everything from the West, and since then the national strength has increased greatly, and now, this similar scene has been repeated in the time and space of the Great Li Dynasty.
The determination to learn science and technology is even far above the mainland of the Great Li Dynasty, you must know that now in the Great Li Dynasty, it is only the development zone and other places to promote science, and more provincial capitals are still under the rule of the imperial court. Although the young emperor implemented many new policies according to Guo Dalu's national policy, the local officials did not cooperate - the example of the development zone is there, which official is not qualified for retraining and study, but has to go back to his hometown to eat old yellow rice, so the old officials are extremely slow to promote science. After all, no one wants to get along with their official hats. It is better to let those old officials learn science from scratch than to take their old lives.
This is the difficulty of the reformist social revolution, the old and new forces are intertwined, and the problem cannot be dealt with by violent means, further, but three steps back, this is still Guo Dalu in the name of a cultivator, the local officials do not dare to be too bad, otherwise, taking the reform of the original time and space as a mirror, the reformers were resisted and even counterattacked by the old faction, and finally died in politics, there are not a few.
Because the aura is relatively thin, the power of domestic cultivators and spirits is not strong, and the opposition to the promotion of science is weak, so Changfa is confident that one day, the scientific inheritance of the country will be even far above the country of origin - the Great Li Dynasty!
The beautiful woman lightly pursed her lips: "In this way, in this battle at sea, Mr. Houlong's ironclad fleet won the Yamato fleet, but it is a good thing." Although the general and others did not openly oppose the emperor's promotion of science, in fact, they secretly resisted it in their hearts, the reason is very simple, the elixir in the hands of the general is above the emperor, if science is fully promoted, then the strength that the general had in the past will be virtually abolished. How could the Shogun endure the Emperor's true strength on an equal footing with him, and even outperform him one day? Therefore, the Shogun and the Pan Daimyo had been secretly opposing the Emperor's efforts to promote science, such as the construction of the Yamato fleet, and the Emperor repeatedly asked for the use of the steam stove, but the Shogun insisted on using Pikachu. Now that the Yamato fleet has been defeated in a battle, even the general himself has been taken prisoner, and he has to present all the elixir weapons to Mr. Houlong, which is a great favor for the emperor. ”
Changfa said: "That's right, we can borrow Mr. Houlong's power to sweep away all the forces that oppose the promotion of science in the country of Weinuer, so when Mr. Houlong's ironclad fleet arrives in Kyoto Bay, I also ask the emperor to move to the dock to greet Mr. Houlong--"
The beautiful woman in the palace costume widened her eyes: "What! Mr. Changfa, you actually let the emperor go out of the palace to greet him?!
Changfa is also a little embarrassed, although the emperor's strength is under the general, but for thousands of years, the inheritance of a lineage, the prestige among the people is extremely high, never out of the palace, even the general wants to see the emperor, but also get the inner palace, honestly waiting for the emperor to summon. The emperor left the palace and waited at the Kyoto Bay Pier, which was indeed a bit too shocking.
However, firstly, Mr. Houlong was the national teacher of the Great Li Dynasty, and I heard that even the young emperor of the Great Li Dynasty faced Mr. Houlong, and he was also called Mr. Houlong, and sat down to discuss the policy, and the country of Enslaved was nominally the country of Pan of the Great Li Dynasty, and the state manager should meet Mr. Houlong, and secondly, Mr. Houlong came with the might of a great victory, and if the lord of the country could not greet him in person, he could not provoke him, and he would shoot at the palace and take the lord of the country captive, so how could it be good? Third, in fact, the lord of the country welcomed Mr. Houlong in person, and there were some unexpected benefits--
Just when Changfa was pondering how to persuade him, a chuckle suddenly came from behind the bead curtain: "I have read a fable book written by Mr. Houlong, which contains the story of a fox and a fake tiger, about a little fox, because walking in front of the big tiger, so that all the animals in the forest have a misunderstanding, in fact, the animals are not afraid of the little fox, but the big tiger behind it, and the little fox just borrowed the momentum of the big tiger." Now, Mr. Houlong is the big tiger, and I am the little fox. ”
Changfa and the beautiful woman were taken aback when they heard the voice behind the bead curtain, but it turned out that it was the emperor behind the bead curtain who suddenly spoke, you know, the emperor rarely spoke, and when it came to affairs, the beautiful woman in the palace played on his behalf, because the emperor's words were jade sounds, and once they were spoken, they could not be changed, in order to avoid trouble--in fact, it was to prevent the emperor from interfering in politics and saying some things that the generals did not like, so the emperor rarely spoke when receiving courtiers.
Today, however, the Emperor actually spoke, and told a little story with a smile, and more importantly, this story is the most apt, and it could not be better to explain why the Emperor must greet Mr. Houlong in person.
Changfa praised happily: "The country of Weinuer has an emperor, which is really a blessing for the country, just like the Great Li Dynasty has Mr. Houlong." ”
Guo Dalu personally led the ironclad fleet to spew smoke and fire, and finally arrived at Kyoto Bay, the black smoke from the boiler can be seen from afar, and the waves set off by the high-speed fleet swept the small boats of the fishermen of the Venezuelan country up and down, and almost capsized.
Guo Dalu Dadao Jinma sat in the bridge, and next to Hao Ge'er stood with a sword in the sky, as long as he saw something wrong in Kyoto Bay, the steel flying sword could immediately kill a river of blood.
However, the scene in front of them made Guo Dalu and Hao Ge'er star, only to see that on the pier of Kyoto Bay, colorful flags were unfurled, crowds were surging, gongs and drums were ringing in unison, and even the five-star flag fluttering on the ironclad fleet was held high by many people.
Guo Dalu saw the scene in front of him where the people were eating pot pulp and welcoming the prince ashore, and finally nodded, his face was a little relaxed: "This slave country is also interesting, and I didn't let Lao Tzu find an excuse to do it." Come on, return the salute and salute!"
The main cannon of the ironclad fleet was raised high, and with a bang, a cannonball accompanied by flames and black smoke spewed out the muzzle of the cannon, and smashed far away on a hill in the suburbs of Kyoto, and the high-explosive shell blew up a small half of the hill - but it turned out that this salute should be an air-burst shell, but how could there be such a thing on the ironclad fleet, it could simply be obtained with live ammunition, as long as it was shot at no one.
The flagship of Guo Dalu fired an eighteen gun salute, and after the smoke passed, the hill next to Kyoto Bay disappeared, but this place was originally a good place for young men and women to go to spring, but now only a mess of rocks and a huge pit of smoke remained.
Fortunately, the people of Kyoto had already received an order, in order to meet the national division of the country and rectify the city, the people were not allowed to run around indiscriminately and stay at home honestly, so that the artillery did not spread.
However, there are still houses near the hill that have been hit by air waves, rubble, shrapnel, and even collapsed due to the violent earthquake, but fortunately, there were no casualties.
After the sound of the cannon subsided, Changfa hurriedly ordered the people and sergeants to regroup, and ordered the beautiful woman in the palace to bring a message to the emperor - this is a salute, on behalf of Mr. Houlong, to pay tribute to our country and our lord, it is the highest etiquette in the army, and there is no intention of intimidation - as for whether there is really no intention of intimidation, then only Mr. Houlong himself knows.
The Emperor sat on his shoulder, his two big eyes staring at the hill that had been smoothed out by the artillery fire through the screen window -- it was possible to do this with the power of a cultivator or a spirit of the Enslaved Country, but this artillery fire was all the power of mortals! A few farmers and fishermen, as long as they studied science and had a little training, could manipulate this artillery, sprinkle iron and fire on the heads of the enemy, and destroy a nation and a country.
Science, that's the power of science!
I, I must master this power!
The ironclad fleet of Science Gate slowly approached the port, where could the wooden trestle withstand the squeeze of these mountain-like iron guys, making a piercing creaking sound, the thick log broke like a toothpick, and a small half of the trestle was even directly crushed by an ironclad ship that was too rough.
In fact, the large-tonnage ironclad ship should not be docked directly in this way, it should be moored in the open sea, and then change to a small boat, but Guo Dalu does not trust the people of the country at all, and is ready to start fighting at any time, and it is too time-consuming to use a small boat to connect and be easily hit by the half-ferry, so he simply berthed directly, fortunately, Kyoto Bay is a natural harbor, the water is deep enough, and it is impossible to dock such a large-tonnage ship at all after changing to another wharf.
The ironclad ship put down its own iron ladder, and a group of soldiers with automatic rifles hurriedly ran down, with cold and shining bayonets stuck in the rifles in their hands, and the officials and civilians who were waiting on the dock retreated one after another, and soon the soldiers cleared a clearing on the dock, and it was Gou Buli who stood at the forefront with a solemn face with an automatic rifle in hand.
Gou Buri followed Guo Dalu to fight in the south and the north, and accumulated a lot of military merits, he has already grown from a young man who hit the door of the girl's house with a piece of wood to a heroic young man, and now he is the battalion commander of the Marine Corps.
When the main cannon on the ironclad ship roared, the officials and people on the dock were frightened, but the slaves who carried the shoulder, although their faces turned pale with fright, and some of them even got their pants wet, they still stiffened and lifted their shoulders, obviously, the person sitting on the shoulder was more interested than Mr. Houlong's ironclad cannon. The people on the shoulders do not speak, and these slaves will not move half a step!
Gou Brie clenched the automatic rifle in his hand, felt the heavy satchel on his shoulder, which contained a wooden-handled grenade, and as long as there was anything unusual on his shoulder, which was a few steps away from him, he immediately threw several grenades, and then fired a flurry of fire from the automatic rifle in his hand.
Changfa nervously sweated in his hands, and the salute roared, he had advised the lord of the country to retreat a little, but the lord of the country said that he would not allow anything, and he also considered that if the lord retreated, it would disturb the hearts of the officials and the people and the warriors, and bring unexpected consequences, so he could only hold on. Unexpectedly, the big-headed soldiers under Mr. Houlong were so rude, and they bullied the lord of the country, not only did not kneel, but also held a steel gun in their hands, eyeing them fiercely.
Changfa was sure that as long as there was anything unusual, the soldiers of the Science Gate would definitely shoot directly indiscriminately, whether it was a demon or a prince or a minister standing in front of him. Alas, the lord of the country wants to fake the tiger, but he doesn't know that this big tiger can eat people!
However, Changfa looked up at the huge cannon on the ironclad ship in front of him that was pointing directly at the pier and the whole of Kyoto, and sighed, the guns are coming, it's too late to say anything now, so it's better to hurry up and get things done, and don't let Mr. Houlong take the opportunity to find trouble.
Changfa was in a hurry, and finally reorganized the welcoming team, sounded drums and played music, Guo Dalu was accompanied by Hao Ge'er, and slowly walked down the iron ladder, Wu Qing and Shi Xiaofeng were naturally guarding on their respective ships, and all the artillery positions were on standby, as long as Guo Dalu made a gesture, Kyoto would immediately be bombarded into a sea of fire.
Guo Dalu looked at it, Kyoto is just like his memory - of course, he has never been to Kyoto before, the so-called memory is just some historical photos of the original time and space, but this time and space have great similarities with the original time and space, just like the Great Li Dynasty is similar to the Central Plains of China, and the country of Weinuer is also like the country of the foot basin, the men's heads are semi-bald, the women are wearing clothes similar to Tang costumes, and they carry a big bag behind their backs, and those with wakicha and tai knives stuck in their waists are obviously samurai, and the houses in the market are made of wood, and the papier-mâché doors are - hey, if this is an incendiary bomb, it will look good。
All the people respectfully knelt at the feet of Guo Dalu, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads.
Guo Dalu was secretly proud in his heart, his sister, the taste of conquering a country is really good--At this moment, Brother Hao beside him shouted: "The person on the shoulder, why don't you come to see Mr. Houlong quickly!"
But it turned out that Brother Hao, like Gou Buli, couldn't keep an eye on the shoulders that were different from ordinary officials and people, and Brother Hao saw that Brother Guo had gotten off the boat, but there was still no movement on the shoulders, and he was immediately unhappy, so he was ruthless and reprimanded.
With Brother Hao'er's scolding, Gou Buri and other marines made an uproar, raised their guns to their shoulders, and aimed at their shoulders!
There was a sudden uproar in all directions, and the officials and people were shocked, frightened, and angry when they saw that the emperor's shoulders were being targeted by the weapons of foreign soldiers, and they stood up one after another, and several hot-blooded samurai had already put their hands on the hilt of their swords, and their eyes were wide open, ready to rush at the soldiers with strange weapons for the emperor at any time.
Chang Fa was shocked that his soul was gone, and he hurriedly trotted over: "Mr. Houlong, the one sitting on this shoulder is the lord of the lower country, this lord is young, and it is easy to see outsiders--"
At this time, another person limped over, it was Taro Yamamoto who had just undergone surgery, he was strong, and soon after the operation was completed, he took the initiative to participate in the ceremony to welcome Mr. Houlong, and when he saw the commotion of the officials and the people, he hurriedly stood up and scolded loudly, angrily scolding the officials and the samurai who were about to move.
Taro Yamamoto's reputation is also rumored among the people, knowing that he is a good man, under the pressure of his bullets, the officials, the people and the samurai knelt down again, but countless anxious eyes were still cast in the direction of the shoulder.
Guo Dalu looked at this sudden scene, his heart moved, the lord of the country of the slaves, the prestige among the officials and the people, but there is quite a foundation, he wants to subdue the country of the slaves by force, but it is not easy, thinking about the original time and space, the bald eagle threw two nuclear bombs in the country of the foot basin, but in the end still retained the emperor system, obviously it is also seen that the emperor's spiritual idol status among the people is not trivial, not to be abolished.
Interesting, a little interesting, I drew the fleet of the Affiliate Slave Country in a war, captured the generals and the Pan Lords, I thought it had been cleared, but I didn't expect that the big boss was here, but I didn't know what kind of person this Affiliate Country Lord, actually made the subjects so hearted, by the way, Li Hua once said with a strange face when he sent himself to the commission, the current ruler of the Affiliate Slave Country is not an extraordinary person, hey, I want to see how extraordinary this country is. --The ruling class likes to make up some nonsense to deceive and intimidate the people, to show that they are not mortals, the emperor of the Great Li Dynasty called himself the son of the dragon, the son of heaven, and the emperor of the foot basin country of the original time and space also claimed to be a line of ten thousand generations, with the blood of gods, in fact, after being shot, stabbed once, it was the same end, in history, the emperor did not die too much inexplicably.
Guo Dalu laughed: "Brother Hao, you are too rude, the lord of the country is not good at shouldering, then I will be on the shoulder." The lord of the country is the master, I am the guest, and I will go to see the master as a guest. ”
