Early the next morning, all the ministers, including Songping Qi Xuan, already knew of the request of A Liguo to ascend to the hall. And everyone knew that A Li Kingdom must have come to borrow troops.

what to do?

"Yingbo Milu's defeat at Dakukou is a huge matter. How much do you have to teach me?" Zhongyouweimen knew that everyone had read the emergency report, but he still handed the emergency report back from Shanghai to everyone. .

"I'm only afraid that the foreigners will cause trouble again." Songping Qimin was most afraid of trouble, and shook his head again and again.

"If they deal with it themselves, that's fine..." Although Songping Qixuan didn't dislike mobilizing soldiers to go out to fight, he disliked the British for not treating soldiers as human beings.

What kind of war is that, it's purely driving soldiers, filling trenches, and blocking holes for gunshots. In Japan's concept at this time, because most of the soldiers in the training team were from samurai families and the second son and third son of the Miao sword saber family, this group of people had a bit of the meaning of the master and the retainer towards Kaamatsupei Qixuan.

The retainers serve me loyally and bravely, and the monarch will not be stingy with the rank and reward. Also maintained an old-fashioned feudal ethics. Although the two sides are unequal, they also have feudal obligations to restrain each other.

It's different now, how can there be any generals who take the soldiers' lives as their lives. In the words of the Duke of Wellington, the British army is full of scumbags, a gathering place for thieves, liars, pimps and social scum. It is the best way to deal with them by driving them to the battlefield and then dying in battle.

You expect British generals to pity soldiers' lives? is it possible?

This is what Songping Qixuan disliked. He wanted to let the Chuanxi team go out to fight more and see blood, but the casualties were too great, and he was reluctant. If 10,000 people died and 500, he felt that it was justified, and it would be fine if the pension was in place. But in today's battlefield, it is 10,000 people who died and 5,000 people.

"It can't be borrowed any more, and it will cause more troubles. The previous mutiny is sensational." Songping Qimin thought for a while, but still expressed his stance against the British.

"It's not that I can't borrow it anymore, at least I can't borrow it now." You all know the reason why Chuyouemon refused to borrow it.

And now there are no troops recruited from civilians in the Chuanxiu team. There are more than 30 million civilians. In cold-blooded words, I don't feel bad about dying. There is no day when Edo doesn't pull out a few cars to drive down. But if there are dead warriors and Miao swordsmen, it will be very distressing. There are only a few people in this group.

It is precisely because of this group that they often read books, understand the orders of officers, and know the function of banners and drums, so they can train so fast, and their combat effectiveness is stronger than the average feudal army.

You can compare 10,000 illiterate soldiers with 10,000 soldiers who have gone to primary school. No matter what, primary school students are stronger. The illiteracy alone is the training time, and it has to grow twice or even twice as much as in elementary school.

"However, the envoy Ying always sees it, and there must be a reason to shirk." Zhu Liu is a foreigner, so he naturally has to ask everyone if there is any reason for him to perfunctory others.

Chuemon only needs to ascend to the temple, summon the kingdom of Ari, and then accept the letter of credentials from the kingdom of Ari, and entertain the kingdom of Ari for a meal, even if the monarch of a country treats the imperial envoy with the etiquette of the British Empire. But what about the assistant six who is actually in charge of negotiation and mediation? You can't see Aliguo every day.

"..." The scene around is a little colder.

"First tell him that the troops are exhausted, and they are moving in and out. I heard that the Lu army was in a big move and went to Ezo to guard. I just returned to Edo, and I can't do it yet."

"One day is a day if you can perfunctory, and you can't talk about it again." Chungemon also meant the same thing.

"If A Liguo is always entangled, tell him that the chaos of the army in the previous expedition to India was caused by the lack of soldiers' pay. If this time is adjusted again, let's first solve the three million soldiers' pay for one year. Let's talk about the solution!" Song Ping Qi Xuan didn't want to make it too difficult to help Liu Liu, so he gave such a statement.

Ali is just the minister in Japan, plus the de facto "governor" of the Yokohama residential area. Although he can also obtain a certain amount of tax revenue from the residential area to maintain the daily operation of the residential area. But there is absolutely no way that three million pounds will be thrown out all at once, which is too much money for him.

He is not Alcock. Alcock can ask the Earl of Canning in India to write off the account, and he can find someone to write off the account for him. Earl Elgin is still in London and can't be contacted.

"Let's return to him like this." Chuemon has no better way for the time being.

Two days later, Ariguo arrived at the Edo Ichibashi Mansion in full attire, formally ascended the hall to meet Chuemon, and handed over Queen Victoria's credentials to Chuemon. Chuemon had a stylized chat with him, and then hosted a banquet in the Western-style pavilion to entertain Ariguo with his entourage.

He also invited company consuls from other countries to accompany him. He was very satisfied with the gradual westernization of Japan, and even the reception banquets began to imitate Western-style operations. Step by step to transform Japan into a British-style country is exactly what they hoped for.

After the meal, Chuemon immediately ran away, leaving behind Sukeroku to negotiate with Ariguo. The place of negotiation between the two parties was set at Lumingkan, which was actually the club hotel in Edo, where foreigners were entertained.

Not surprisingly, Ali Guo opened his mouth to ask the shogunate to borrow 10,000 soldiers!

He knew very well that the shogunate now had more than 20,000 troops. Except for the 4,000-5,000 artillery units guarding the Edo Bay fort that could not be mobilized, the 1st Edo Division and the 2nd Osaka Division were all troops that could fight at any time.

Especially the first Edo division, the predecessor Alcock used to say it straight. It is simply the first-class good cannon fodder in Asia, obeying orders, and the quality of individual soldiers is also good. In addition, the British and French code of conduct is used, which can well coordinate with the British army.

"The previous mutiny against the Indian army has not yet been resolved. I'm afraid it will be difficult to recruit troops this time." Zu Liu sounded an official tone.

On the shogunate's side, all those who participated in the mutiny were suppressed, and all those who did not participate were repaid their salaries, and now they are resettled back to their hometowns and become small village policemen. Those who died in battle were given pensions, a little bit more. The whole incident is a complete turnaround, already in the past tense.

On the British side, however, the mutiny troops killed more than 100 British troops, breached the Binhaiguan Building, and damaged the industry with the British. In Aliguo's view, this matter is not over yet.

"The mutiny of your country's soldiers has nothing to do with the British Empire!" A Liguo came up to set the tone. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

"The Indian Army belongs to your country's army, and the commander-in-chief is the Minister of Alcock. The soldiers and quilts are all supplied by your country, and the military contracts signed are also clearly listed. Why doesn't it matter!" Zhu Liu also knew a little about negotiation. The momentum is not weak at all.

"They have already returned to Japan, and they have returned to the order of the Japanese army!" A Liguo thought that you, a young man, would argue with me? When I was fighting in Iberia, your boy was still breastfeeding.

"Although you have arrived in Japan, you are stationed in the Yokohama residential area, which is land leased to your country. Does your country not recognize the friendship agreement between your two countries?"

"The mutiny happened in Edo!"

"But he also happened in Yokohama! And when it happened, the Indian Army was owed its military pay for several months. The military pay has not yet been settled, and the military contract between the two sides is naturally still in existence."
