v5 Chapter 29: Or go home and ask your dad

  Chapter 264 29.Want to go home and ask your dad

  Forgive your kid for not being willing to pay 8,000 Mexican silver dollars for each merchant ship!

  “It’s a brand new era now. The old rules and regulations should have been broken long ago. All these vague stereotypes should be abolished, and international relations should be examined with a free eye!”

  James has already understood that the three so-called shogunate officials and messengers in front of him are indeed not prepared to sign any trade and trade treaty with the United States, as Tadaoemon said at the beginning. No matter how much it is said, it has no effect on the result.

  Rather than having a gang of stale monkeys in his eyes, dwarf clowns and crude monkeys with greasy and savage haircuts, it’s better to show off their muscles.

  What a new era of shit, that is, the era when the so-called truth is only within the range of a cannon. The robbers can speak no truth at all, trample on all laws and customs, abandon justice as a mess, and use the guns in their hands to act recklessly!

  I am now in Japan, and under my feet is a giant ship equipped with sixty-eight cannons. A volley of fire will have the power to shake the world. Why should I reason with you primitive monkeys, you are not worthy.

  Just a little bit of Chi Guoguo, it doesn’t matter if you agree to it today or not, anyway, you want to start a business with me. If you refuse to do business, then eat my shells.

  Cannonball is my reason!

   "It seems that our negotiations with General James have broken down." Tademon saw that James was no longer ready to reason, so there was nothing to talk about.

"I hope you cherish this opportunity, and now it is still a moment to bring goodwill to the United States of America..." It's a threat to you, you can do it yourself, James touched his beard, there is a momentum of victory. .

"Do you know how many samurai like the three of us, how many generals there are? How many are stationed at the foot of Edo Castle?" Chuemon pointed to the few American soldiers around, and pointed again. Own.

   "Thirty thousand? Fifty thousand? Oh, do you want to say one hundred thousand?"

   "There are more than two hundred twenty thousand, and it only takes half a day to complete the assembly!" Chuemon told the truth.

  Regardless of the combat power of 220,000, the shogunate banner is five thousand people, the imperial family is 23,000 people, and the servants and soldiers can indeed gather 80,000 troops for Tokugawa Jiaqing within half a day. In addition, the great names of the world accompanied the ranks of the princes who came to Edo, the two hundred thousand is still less than that, and it may be more than that.

  Such a huge number, in the ears of a Yankee who is not completely sure of the warrior's combat effectiveness, there is no doubt that it is quite shocking. If it were 20,000 natives, James felt it was nothing more than a few rounds of shelling and then a bayonet charge.

  And two hundred twenty thousand indigenous people, that kind of scene, has far exceeded the scope of James can imagine and understand!

  Not long ago, the first Sino-British war broke out between Britain and the Qing. It was indeed not too difficult for the British army to defeat 100,000 people in the Qing army, but it was not so easy. At this time, there are still some units of the Qing army who maintained the courage of hand-to-hand combat, far unlike the bad soldiers who will run away with one shot in the future.

  There are even many people who are elite green camps transferred from Shaanxi. But don't underestimate these people, they are the army that put down Zhang Geer's rebellion. Zhang Geer launched the rebellion under the secret support and instigation of the British. The performance of the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Camp was also seen by the British.

   Therefore, the British army’s evaluation of the Qing army’s combat effectiveness has not yet been decimated. People like the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Camp, the Heilongjiang Horse Team, and the Sauron Soldier still hold relatively positive reviews.

  Besides, in the East Asian monster house, there is really not much waste. In order to conquer Burma, the British army killed tens of thousands of people one sea by one sea. Although Burmese did kneel in the end, they also knelt unyieldingly. Dai Qing did kneel, but the size of his tiger skin hadn't been completely pierced.

  The Japanese samurai who have not fought against the great powers, if there are 220,000 people in Burma or Qing, the United States will have to send at least 50,000 to 60,000 people to defeat them.

  If the United States now has the strength to put 60,000 troops into East Asia, and guarantees that these troops can maintain logistics for more than a year in the distant East Asia, it may be that Nanyang has been leveled by him.

  What kind of Japan is there, and the gold mines in Southeast Asia are not fragrant? The spice is not fragrant? The fine wood is not fragrant?

  To be honest, James was shocked first, and then huge doubts. Even the Qing Dynasty next door mobilized hundreds of thousands of horses to fight with the British army. What kind of strength do you have as a small Japanese country that can mobilize an army of 220,000?

  I really didn’t have any preparations before James came to Japan? More than 40 years ago, the Russians had surveyed the coastal data of the north and south of Japan along the Sea of ​​Japan. Although the specific situation in Japan is not known, things such as the approximate size of the country and the population are no longer a secret.

   "It seems that General James doesn't believe it, so you might as well give it a try." Chungemon confirmed that the shogunate could draw more than 200,000 people. If you want to try, just try.

"I said that I came with the kindness of the United States of America, and I don't want to conflict with your country." James, who was uncertain, actually wanted to see the weight of the Japanese samurai, but was afraid that he would really stoke a hornet's nest. .

  "In my opinion, your country’s kindness is not even as good as that of Britain!" Chuemon sat as if nothing had happened, and said such a sentence.

  "Britain? Has the United Kingdom negotiated with your country?" Although the telegram has now appeared ~lightnovelpub.net~, the news of the British spread to the United States and then spread, not so quickly.

  "No, no, no, the United Kingdom does not need to negotiate with our country. He once obtained the permission of the previous general to trade with our country. It was only because he refused to move to Nagasaki Dejima, and the trade was unable to make ends meet, and finally withdrew from Japan.

   "What do you mean?" James felt that the Tademon in front of him was definitely not telling him this out of thin air.

"The employee Miura of the British East India Company pressed the needle to become the representative of the United Kingdom, serving as the adviser and vassal of the previous generals. If Mr. James is also willing to become the representative of your country and become a vassal of our country, then you will also get Yes, you can trade with our country."

  Hahahahahaha, anyway, Chungemon just can’t get around you and call me the shogunate to call my dad!

   "It's impossible!" James certainly couldn't agree.

  "Then maybe your country can negotiate with the British East India Company to buy their trading rights..." Chuemon suddenly gave a seemingly vague suggestion.

  As a leader of Ying Nizi, ask what your ex-father meant.
