C633 Great Chaos in Japan

For ordinary people, the New Year represented family reunion and a year's long absence. The citizens could reunite with their families and visit their friends. They could get drunk every day and then accompany their children to set firecrackers on the streets.

However, to a politician, a holiday was always a matter that was out of their reach. Any unexpected incidents would require them to respond in time, especially to Xiao Letian, the situation in East Asia was far more important than him accompanying his wife.

Right now, Xiao Letian was bringing the little emperor along on a Roman sail. Under the guidance of the most experienced water guide, under the guidance of three ice breaker, they slowly headed towards the east.

Xiao Letian stood at the head of the bed with his brows furrowed tightly. The fluttering sea breeze carried a bone-piercing chill as it entered his clothes, but at this moment, he could no longer feel the cold.

Little Emperor Tongzhi, who was behind him, felt Xiao Letian's oppressive aura. He did not know what had happened, but he knew that for the invincible Prime Minister Xiao of the East China Sea to have such a gloomy face, it must be something big.

Xiao Letian waved his hand towards the little emperor, and when Zai Chun ran over to his side, Xiao Letian handed over a piece of paper in his hand, on which there was a line of small words.

"On 30 January, the Xiao Emperor passed away tomorrow. The cause of death is unknown but there are many clues implying that the Sky Emperor died in poison. Sixteen years old, Emperor Yi, and he ascended the throne. "

Tongzhi could not understand what was written on the slip of paper. He was only given the title of Emperor of Japan to the Sky Emperor, and now that a Japanese emperor had passed away, what did it have to do with him, the emperor of the Great Qing Empire?

Xiao Letian knew that he could not understand, so he rubbed his head and said secretly, "Let me tell you a secret, don't tell anyone else, this sixteen year old Emperor Yi Mi will change his number to Meiji next year.

Xiao Letian was a military history fan in his previous life, so how could he not understand the history of the Minzhiweixin. He started his life with wars and schemes, and spent fifty years to create East Asia's strongest modern Japan, which was the cornerstone that he laid down in modern Japan.

Xiao Letian had secretly formed a large-scale spy network through Sakamoto Ryoma's sea rescue team, the Ninja Guild of the Mu Clan on the island, and the power of the merchants in the Japan. There was no way that the information in the Japan could be hidden from him.

Don't look at the fact that Xiao Letian had warped between Europe and the Beijing Belt in 1866. However, he did not relax his vigilance at all within the Japan.

In July 1866, during the second battle for Changzhou, the territory of the ancient Maori's house, known as the Maori's house, was attacked by the Thirty Sentinels under the command of General Dechuan. General Mauben thought that this battle would be a complete victory, just like the first one.

But they never would have thought that Gao Shanjinzuo, Shan Xianyoupeng, the new leaders, would actually be so good at fighting. With the help of Sakamoto Ryoma's Sea Aid Association, they defeated the Palace Chief of the Mu Clan and caused Tokugawa to die from anger.

The victory in this battle was inseparable from the blood sacrifice of Wei Xin Zhi Shi, the unity and cooperation of the Four Feudal Lords, and more importantly, it was inseparable from the high ranking firearms that Xiao Letian had secretly supported.

Ever since the incident with Yue Yang, Japan was clear-headed enough to realize that it was impossible not to use the new guns. However, the relationship between Japan and Europe was also not that good.

If Xiao Letian did not secretly fund Sakamoto Ryoma's arms, would Raiders still want to own Gun s? They still want to have a fixed cartridge? Isn't that a dream?

The Raiders that Gao Shanjinzuo led truly relied on the support of top-notch ammunition to turn the tide time and time again and beat the Mu Clan Master until he was forced to retreat.

It could be said that the Second Battle of Changzhou was a very important node for the reform of Japan. Just because this victory had shattered the legend of the Tokugawa's invincibility in battle, the entire society of Japan fell into a state of turmoil.

All those with knowledge lowered their hopes of the Mu Clan, and the movement on the screen finally entered its acceleration phase. What was even more shocking was that in September 1866, the Mu Clan's retreat was announced a failure. In the end, four months later, the Tokugawa's filial king, the emperor, would have died.

Someone might even ask, why is the Sky Emperor and the Tsurukawa's Palace of the same heart? This was not strange at all. The Xiao Houtian emperor was still the emperor of the pro-Tokugawa, he was completely different from his son. His dream was to not care about anything and just let the Tokugawa keep him.

One could imagine, how come the Sky Emperor was not a thorn in the side of Inverted Pie? It was too easy to get poisoned.

"Your Majesty, the study tour has only just begun and you can already personally witness a soul-stirring revolution. You have to personally witness how much pain and suffering other races have suffered and how much blood has been shed in order to rise to prominence … For a nation, if they want to live, if they want to live with dignity, it's impossible for them to not die! "

Xiao Letian started to tell the story of Japan to the little emperor bit by bit. From the middle of the Ming Dynasty when Japan was still a Battle Nation, he talked about Zhi Tianxinchang, Feng Chenxiuji and Tokugawa Kang all the way until the incident of the black ship and the security prison … and other important historical events, the hundreds of years of history of the Japan were like an ornamentation on the palm of one's hand.

"Oh Emperor, actually, Japanese was the first to come into contact with the same thing we were, they were also the first to come into contact with the Westerners, and their influence on Japan was especially far-reaching. However, at that time, the national policy of Japan was the same as the Central Plains, there were only limited contacts, so we had to be careful in doing business …"

"It was only until the incident of the black ship in 1853 that Japanese realized that the world outside the country had changed drastically. He actually was able to create a terrifying battleship that was emitting black smoke … By then, the black ship will already have boilers installed. When there is no wind, they will burn coal to provide power … Aiya, why are you interrupting again! "

With that said, Xiao Letian directly smashed the little emperor's head.

At the beginning, the Japanese was the same as the officials of the Great Qing, they felt that this mystical power that exceeded our imagination was a demonic technique and a demonic technique, and they were also against it at the beginning. However, the Japan was a bit fickle, they were not as stubborn as us, and after a while, a group of people opened their eyes, they are the Japanese reformist that I told you about …

"Gao Shanjinzuo, Sakamoto Ryoma, Long Term Pauli Tong, Gui Xiaowang … "There are too many. In order to obtain the magical power of the West, these elites have started to diligently study western learning. They have decided to improve Japan from the political, economic and even cultural levels. In this aspect, they have progressed much faster than us …"

"Your Majesty, you must remember, you must definitely not reveal your identity during this trip to Japan. If it is outside, you must claim that you are my brother-in-law. Remember, the Japanese is very crazy. If they were to know your identity, all of the Ninjas in Japan will have to take action! "

"Operation Ninja? What were they going to do? Is it bad for me? " Tongzhi asked.

"It's not bad, it's just that the rare goods are available. The sudden appearance of the Great Qing's emperor is a huge boost to the prestige of the Tokugawa, even if it's just for you to go there as a guest. Listen up, Japanese is very fanatical, sometimes they would rather shatter the jade than get what they want … "

The Roman finally left the ice sea area by the BoHai coast. Right now, the boat was speeding towards Japan, and behind the Roman, the already blurry shadow of the Ryukyu was floating in the sky with faint black smoke.

The Great Qing's industrial layout was currently dancing to Xiao Letian's baton in a rhythmic manner. Under Xiao Letian's disdainful efforts, China's industrialization process was finally ahead of Japan.

Just as Xiao Letian was travelling day and night, thousands of miles away in Jianghu, Japan, the last generation of Mufu Generals of the Heaven's Tower was drinking a sake and eating roasted porcupine meat, which was the pork that the Chinese people were talking about.

Japan had inherited the customs of the Tang and Song Dynasties, so the pork was not clean in the eyes of the Japanese, only the common folk were interested in tasting it, but the last generation General of Mu Clan, Tokugawa Yoshinobu, was extremely fond of the pork, and even had a nickname of "Pig".

Of course, although he looked like a pig in Japanese, it didn't mean that Tokugawa Yoshinobu was a pig.

Although Tokugawa Yoshinobu who had experienced his second failure at the Changzhou Realm had successfully ascended the throne of the general, the shadow of failure still shrouded him. He was not in a good mood and had to rely on the alcohol to sleep during this period of time.

Right now, the filial emperor of the Tsurukawa's Palace was already dead. Even a fool would know that there was the Inverted Pie's hand in this, causing the general to be even more unhappy.

The good wine, the favorite pig meat, and the brilliant performance of the geisha made the general's mood much better, but people who were disheartened would eventually appear. Just as he was about to do something with his eyes on the geisha, Xiao Xing walked over and whispered a few words into the general's ear.

"Nani?" You mean someone brought me the most important top secret information? Wouldn't anyone tell anyone but me? Damn it, could it be that the Tsurukawa's Palace has already declined? Why would any kind of weirdo appear here?! "

Xiao Xing very carefully said to the general, "Yes, I know the man. He is indeed one of the elites of our Mu Clan, so his identity cannot be wrong."

"Well, let her in, I'll see her!" The general ordered.

Xiao Xing clapped his hands, allowing the geisha to retreat. The warrior then opened the door, and a lady in a kimono lightly walked in.

"Tokugawa Ninja Hidden Fog Kid pays her respects to the General! This lowly one has brought the most important information of the Ryukyu and the Great Qing.

He never would have thought that after disappearing for a few months, Hidden Fog Kid would return to Japan, return to the Tsurukawa's Palace that she was loyal to, and even receive an audience with a general.
