Chapter 76: New Thinking About Japan

Wen Tingshi and the two children went on an adventure. When they arrived at the brother and sister's house, they saw that the residents on the island were very respectful to the brother and sister. They were surprised. When the brother and sister knelt down and begged, they asked questions.

After a while, I learned that the brother and sister had just grown up this year. Since I was a child, I knew that they had a deep hatred of blood and were circulating with noble blood. Naturally, they were unwilling to live on this small island for a lifetime. So they followed the caravan to Tokyo to visit their imprisoned grandfather. After being found out by their uncle who was studying in college in Tokyo, they reported to the government, so they got involved in the pursuit.

Wen Tingshi also knew the lineage left behind in the last chapter of this inverted movement. It turned out that it was the blood of the youngest son of Matsuhira Yomosa, the old Aijin Fan leader Matsuhira Yomosa. Matsuhira Yomosa's name was taken by the general who followed his father, the director of the Xinzhu group, Yukino Kondo. He was strong, but he was with the deputy director of the Xinzhu group. When he formed the Hokkien Republic, he fell in love with the daughter of a local Ainu leader. Although the two were still good friends and were also excellent comrades under the relentless attack of the Meiji government, Yukino. However, Yukinosa

The tenacious personality gave all love and life to Matsuhira Yubao, but he politely rejected the French's kindness that he wanted to take him to France. He led the remaining 50 new samurai group, holding a samurai sword, chanting the last sing: the lonely minister died in the island of Ekima Island, and the loyal soul of Ekima Dongfangjun. He sang the song, dragged the samurai sword, rode a war horse, walked out of Golenggu and rushed into the enemy formation... Opposite was the position of the Meiji government army's muskets and cannons. In the end, Tuya was killed by dozens of guns in three bodies. (It seems that what Langke Jianxin said was the destruction at this time.)

Matsuhira Yubao witnessed the death of his friend and knew that his intention was to preserve the last line of Matsuhira. He was sad and wandered around Hokkaido, evading the pursuit of government forces. Until the Meiji government of Japan developed Hokkaido on a large scale, Matsuhira Yubao followed some unyielding Ainu people to escape to the unknown island. It was not until his wife gave birth to her son and daughter more than ten years ago. He waited until he saw that her son was healthy and grew up to eight years old.

The daughter called her to her side and told them about the proud history of the family, their framed and bullied grandfather, their loyal and brave uncle, the short history of the Ekima Republic for dozens of days, and the deep hatred for the Meiji government. Then, she picked up the samurai sword that had been prepared and died with a smile as her family cried. His wife also pulled out the samurai sword from her husband's belly and inserted it into her abdomen.

The two children did not understand why their father and mother committed suicide, but Wen Tingshi knew that he knew that Matsuhira Yubao had a long-term ambition to die, but just to see his child grow up with his own eyes, he committed suicide to repay the third year of the year. The child's mother knew that his tribe members would definitely help him take care of the children, and made up her mind to follow her husband.

The story is coming to an end. As for why the brother and sister came with Wen Tingshi, they are about to come out, but the story itself is extremely miserable. At the end of Wen Tingshi, his voice was already slightly trembling. This tragedy in Japan brought a quiet atmosphere to the hall, which was not very warm, which made people shudder.

"I really didn't expect that the people who are transformed from others will be loyal and righteous as this..." After a long time, Li Hongzhang said slowly.

I also recovered from the story and held the teacup in my hand. It was already cold. A gust of cold wind blew, and then I woke up completely. I quickly ordered the eunuchs to add charcoal fires. When the midnight snack was cold, I quickly went to heat up and invited several adults to have midnight snack together.

I drank a bowl of hot ginseng and antler porridge, ate a few fresh shrimp dumplings for mother and son, made some green pineapple balls, and ate a few pieces of crispy lamps. This allowed the chill of several people to dispel a little, and the huge room returned to the usual pattern of playing.

"Well, Li Zhongtang just said that the people outside the world also have loyalty and righteousness. According to my opinion, this is the essence of human beings. Now that the East Learning is in decline and the west wind is rising, it is precisely the promotion of this loyalty and righteousness. Sixth Master often listens to the opera troupe and also calls for a party at home?" I looked at Yi Xin.

"Reply to the emperor." Yi Xin looked up and replied, "I am not very good at this, but there are still many people in the royal family who are good at this. I heard that Prince Yu Yidao, Prince Rui Renshou and his family often call for churches to listen. If the emperor wants to make a play on this, he will do it. Then he will go back."

I smiled and said, "It's not urgent. Our ancestors also have "Orphans of Zhao". They are much more loyal and fierce than this." I turned to Li Hongzhang and said, "The reason why I talked about Dongxue is that I suddenly remembered that North Korea is also making trouble for Dongyidao or Dongxue Party recently? With such a thing, I want to discuss it. First, North Korea, Yuan Shikai also submitted several memorials to ask for orders. I haven't answered him yet. Second, this Japanese are right here.

I, the Qing Dynasty, are there any available things to use? Of course, my intention is not to use it. Help must be helped. Young children come to the Qing Dynasty. They can’t just let them go back empty-handedly. This is the bottom line. Sixth Master and Li Zhongtang have been doing the Westernization Affairs for so many years. From this point of view, how to do the Qing Dynasty, how much effort it takes to do it, and whether there are any requirements here? You all talk about it. Wenting style is quite familiar with Japan, so you should also be on the sidelines."

The three of them agreed and thought about it. I was walking aside, thinking about this. The Matsuhira Ichiya and his subordinates may be located near the four northern islands that are now occupied by Russia. Maybe it is the most important of the Chiwu Islands. Such a place will be frozen in winter and will not have strategic depth. It has no strategic value from a military perspective. How should we use this current situation?

As for North Korea, Yuan Shikai should also execute my order, right?

"Cough, Your Majesty." Prince Gong Yixin coughed lightly and said, "With the simple opinion of the servant, why not talk about the Matsuhira family? As for this matter, it is better to secretly help the secretly help the three ways, and secretly help the supplies and weapons, and even money, so that they can make trouble in the Japanese. Those who are clearly help, ask them to be subordinates of the Qing Dynasty. The emperor can choose one or two capable officials to help them, and still provide supplies and weapons, money, and protect them with the power of the Qing Dynasty. In this way, they can follow the example and take both of them to win two birds with one stone, which is enough for the Japanese to be busy for a while. If this is not helpful, they will do nothing and give them money and make them return. But it depends on my emperor's determination."

This is true. Li Hongzhang and Wentingshi and I couldn't help but nodded, but there was still a problem. Hokkaido Island was isolated in the north of Japan. My transportation line was relatively long and was easily attacked. This plan must be based on the severance of the Japanese Combined Fleet. Moreover, if you walk west, you must also be wary of the Russian Far East Fleet.

Sure enough, Li Hongzhang was born in a navy after all, and he also thought of this problem: "The emperor, prince, and minister think that these three strategies are difficult. They help secretly and openly, and there are transportation problems. The sea navigation route is long and vulnerable to attacks. If you have to escort every time, it is too extravagant. If you don't help, it may hurt the benevolence and face of the emperor's monarch of the Heavenly Dynasty."

I suddenly remembered that Wen Tingshi had been to this, but I didn't say a word, so I asked him, "Wen Tingshi, is the island you went to in Hakodate West or East?" This question is very important and involves the issue of supply lines. If you can gain a foothold in Hakodate West over there, it will also be a deterrent to the Russians.

"I replied to the emperor's words. It was in the west of Hakodate. I heard the locals' words, and it seemed that the name was Okurijiri."

"Map!" I called out, and Kou Lian next to me quickly presented the East Asia map he got from the British. I called a few people to come over and said, "Wen Tingshi, please continue, let's talk while we are gathering Xiang."

"Yes, there are thousands of people living in the south of Okujiri Island, and there is a dense forest to the north. I have not gone deeper. I just heard from the local people that there is a flat sand slope to the north, and there is a port to the south. There are military personnel stationed by the Japanese government on the island, about dozens of people."

"Oh?", I stopped my fingers on Okuri Island, raised my head and said, "I will meet those brothers and sisters tomorrow. Wen Tingshi, go and prepare. After doing this, you will have a holiday."

"I received the order."

I nodded and said, "Well, please kneel down and I will hand in the sign to see me tomorrow."

After Wen Tingshi left, I talked about my arrangements with Yi Xin and Li Hongzhang. Okujiri Island occupies enough land. Once I make up my mind, the navy can hold live-fire exercises in the southern waters to attract the attention of the Japanese navy and allow the transport ship to transport equipment. The army goes to Okujiri and Hakodate to log in. Matsuhira will call on those who do not obey the government. In this way, the base can be successfully opened in the rear of Japan. When the Japanese navy notices it, he will not dare to send it immediately.

The navy went north to support the war, and at this time, the Japanese combined fleet could be blocked in the military port on the front line of Wu Zhenshoufu. By the time he went around from the east, the daylily would be cold. If the operation was carried out in early winter next year, that would be better. First, the Matsuhira family had enough time to contact some people to prepare for the response in advance, and second, the northern waters would freeze after the winter, and the warships could not circumnavigate to the front line of Okurijiri Hakodate, and the northern front line had enough time to strengthen the defense.

Li Hongzhang was worried that the Russians would intervene, so I smiled and said, "Russians? The Russians' minds are all in Europe now. When he reacts, it's still the same thing that he can do if he can do Vladivostok!"
