Edo Traveler

v8 Chapter 55: The students studying in the UK returned

As soon as the new year passed, Chungemon began to beat his heart and eyelids every day. I only know that the black ship will come this year, but don't know how many days the black ship will come, so it will be very difficult.

In addition, the shogunate was an eventful autumn. Matsudaira Keunaga's ability was average and his level was limited. Although his family was high, he could not fully convince the public. Sometimes things are considered incomplete, and one thing is one thing. However, the Tokugawa family decided everything but nodded, and generally did not express their own opinions. Something was just letting one of the three of Fu Yi pass a message.

Tokugawa Jiaqing became ill again, and became more and more ill. Years ago, I was able to stand up and sit and play with Shiwan. In the first year of the year, I could only lie down and talk with Shiwan. Now I don’t even have the strength to speak, and I only use rice porridge to continue my life every day.

Really don't know tomorrow today!

After the Lantern Festival, all the veterans of the Chuanxi team who had returned from the holiday returned to the team on schedule, and the hanging heart of Zhongyouweimen was put down for the most part. As long as the artillery defended the fort along the Edo Bay, it would be useless for the United States to come on ten and eight ships, and the Shogunate was completely capable of fighting.

At that time, even if the country is founded, at most it will open a port and allow Americans to trade somewhere. As for extraterritorial rights, transfer of concessions, compensation for military expenses, etc., nothing can be said about it.

After a winter of endurance training, the recruits have begun to master specialized artillery and spear skills. Guns and artillery are in place, and the Dutch are very qualified as a small businessman as long as the money is paid happily.

Just like Portugal next door, a small country like Portugal, knowing that the Qing court might go to war with Britain, still sold more than two hundred large and small artillery to the Qing court. The arms sales were stopped only after the war had completely started.

This is probably the same in the Netherlands now. As long as a big country like the United Kingdom and the United States hasn't really begun to take advantage of the shogunate, what is wrong with it before the war is selling a large amount of arms.

After quickly arming all the members of the training team, the rest is waiting...

This kind of waiting time is the most annoying. Chungemon doesn't have the mind to take care of other things, so he can only sit in the camp with Matsudaira and practice every day.

As a result, there was no news of Yingmi’s invasion of ghost animals, but another good news was quickly delivered to Edo through the mouth of the Dutch, and reported to Chuemon.

The first-term students who have been sent to study in the UK have arrived in Jakarta and will return to Japan soon after changing the ship.

The good news is really great news. I never expected that the overseas students would come earlier than Yingmi Guihu. Chuemon immediately sent a letter to Uraga, and as soon as the Dutch communications ship arrived at the port, he transferred the students back to their country.

After receiving the letter, Shengmo Kawalu sent people to look around at Uraga Lighthouse. After waiting for ten days, they finally saw the shadow of the Dutch communications ship.

After being away from Japan for six years, it took almost a year for the round trip. Finally, under the arrangements of Bonham and Palmerzum, thirty foreign students who have entered British institutions of higher learning have now set foot on the land of Japan. .

The young people who were in their teens and twenties before going abroad have now changed their faces, and the years have left marks on them, but their loyalty to the shogunate and the Tokugawa clan has never changed.

"For six years, Uraga East and West, the fortresses are dense, it is really reassuring." Oguri Tadashi looked at the fortresses at the entrance and exit of Edo Bay on both sides of Uraga and Futtsu, feeling in his heart.

"I'm waiting to return home at the right time!" Tokugawa Keibo, who had been in the UK for two months, took the lead to walk down the gangway.

"Hahahahahaha... or Uraga makes you breathe smoothly."

When I heard about it, I knew that it was Sheng Haizhou, and the others were dressed as samurai, but Sheng Haizhou had already been dressed as a European. The braids were cut long ago, and the long hakama was replaced with a simple suit. He studied navy and shipbuilding in London, but he almost got pneumonia. The smog brought by industrialization is really hard to compliment.

"Yes, yes, it's better for Japan." The faces of a large group of students couldn't hide the excitement of going home.

After hearing the inquiry, Seimo Kawanji, representative of Chuemon, welcomed them back to the country, and immediately arranged for them to get on a small boat and transfer to Edo, so that Chuemon could see people as soon as possible.

The rowing oarsmen received money from Shengmo Chuanlu, and they rowed quickly, but Oguri Tadashi and others couldn't hide their excitement as they looked at the scenery passing by the coast. Everywhere was so familiar and so unfamiliar.

When I see that from Uraga to Shinagawa, all the fortresses along the way have been completed, and the Susaki on the opposite bank of Shinagawa is also faintly behind the array of fortresses. Everyone admired Mizuno's leadership a few years ago, and he did a good job.

The clippers rushed all the way to Nihonbashi, and when they got off the boat, it was Edo Castle. Oguri Tadatsu and Egawa Hidetoshi, who are the masters of the shogunate, took the documents issued by the shogunate and the British receipt. They all came to the castle together. Chuan Qingbao is the leader, ready to go to the city to report to see you.

After receiving the news, Tadaoemon and Matsudaira Chisun Peima came from the playground, and Ii Naobe and Mizuno Tasei who were in the city immediately came forward, and even Matsudaira Keunaga came. The purpose of his coming was very clear. He didn't send him to England to learn foreign guns and cannons, and the army had learned how to do it. That's right, all preparations were made, and he took the men and horses and the British rice ghosts and animals to finish the battle.

"Gotaro! Tarouzaemon! Rintarou..." Tadaoemon flew off his horse and ran to the crowd.

Everyone was carefully selected by Tadaoemon at the beginning, and they were found one by one from the waste of 23,000 shogunates, and then sent on the mail ship to London, England. When I saw it now, I was very familiar and kind.

"Master Edogawa!" The students were also delighted to see Tademon. They were able to go to the United Kingdom, all thanks to Tademon's efforts.

Without Chuemon, there would be nothing for them to study in the UK!

"Eh! I should call His Highness the Edogawa Attendant!" Matsudaira Qi Xuanzheng has no officers. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

This time the British navy and army sent a dozen officers back to the shogunate. Each of them can manage dozens of people. The newly recruited more than 1,000 soldiers from the training team are not easy to handle.

"En!" Everyone suddenly remembered the recent situation of the shogunate that Tokugawa Keiho told them about.

"Cadaemon is the Ogishō Yuruyin. It has now been recognized as a member of the Imperial Palace. You should respect it." Although Ii Naobi did not participate in the selection and delivery of overseas students, he is determined to learn advanced foreign science and technology. People, I can only rejoice when I see such a shogunate who has returned from school.

A group of overseas students nodded repeatedly. They heard Tokugawa Keiho talk about this in London before, and they sighed that there is such a miracle in the world. Just waiting to ask more, Chuemon just pulled a group of people and went to the castle to meet the new general of the shogun, Tokugawa Kasada. To tell our general, there are now thirty samurai in the shogunate who have received the best higher education in the UK.

We don't have to rely on the Dutch for everything in the future, we have talents ourselves!
