Chapter 393 Claims for 185 years!
"Burn it, burn it slowly, it's better to burn it for a long time." Liang Pengfei stood at the bow of the warship, with a cold and confident smile on the corners of his mouth. Matthew, the commander of the U.S. East India Fleet? Perry knocked on the door of the country with only seven warships. Today, he brought 30 warships and made so many arrangements in advance, if he could not get a satisfactory reply.
"If the whole Edo is ignited, I don't know if it will make the Japanese economy regress for another 20 or 30 years." Liang Pengfei whispered to himself. Japan, a country that has suffered and tortured the Chinese nation in another time and space, Liang Pengfei had already thought about how to deal with it at the beginning of the crossing.
Although this country lacks resources and products, there seems to be nothing to pay attention to except for playing with knives all day long, or playing with warriors and volcanic earthquakes.
In fact, in this era, the output of silver and gold in China is still good, and Liang Pengfei wants to control the country in addition to plundering a large amount of mineral resources of the country.
The reason why Liang Pengfei wants to do this is that, first of all, Liang Pengfei absolutely does not want history to repeat itself. He has come to this time and space and has changed a lot of things. However, how dare he forget this feud that made his previous life unforgettable?
Second, this country has a large population, which can provide a large amount of labor resources for Liang Pengfei's colonization. Since we want to obtain labor, we must destroy a country's economic system. It is best to let this country go down to the people of Lebanon to the nobles and ministers go bankrupt, and only one can be completely destroyed. After the country's economic system, or complete control of a country's economic system, can Liang Pengfei easily gain the rule or control of the country.
Therefore, Liang Pengfei came to the Japanese country to let the Japanese country open the door to trade. Liang Pengfei was determined to destroy the country with an economic offensive. In a word, dump goods.
Since the birth of capitalism, it has been full of blood, and Liang Pengfei's Guangzhou merchant group has gradually taken the prototype of a capitalist, and the production capacity brought by industrial production is astonishing. Therefore, Liang Pengfei will naturally not let go of the Japanese with a consumer population of more than 20 million. Of course, there is also North Korea, but he first separated the sea from the Qing Dynasty, and his strength is more than that of North Korea.
In addition, Liang Pengfei will never allow the development of the Japanese kingdom. Therefore, Hokkaido must return to the embrace of China, and Kyushu Island must also become the outpost of Master Liang's surveillance of the Japanese kingdom, so that the four islands of the Japanese kingdom will become the two islands of the Japanese kingdom. In addition, it is better to split the Japanese kingdom and keep them in internal consumption, which is more perfect. .

"Negotiation, we must negotiate, and we can't let them attack Edo City so unscrupulously again." Tokugawa Jiaqi's forehead was full of cold sweat. It was really hard for him to imagine that the other party's warship would have so many artillery. Oh, my God, if the other party's thirty giant ships fired at Edo, Tokugawa Jiaqi believed that in less than half a day, the whole Edo would become a sea of fire.
You should know that Edo Castle is not only the largest city in Japan. From Tokugawa Ieyasu to Kanto by Toyotomi Hideyoshi and became a big name with 2.5 million stones, Tokugawa Ieyasu took Edo as his residence. After that, with the establishment of the Tokugawa shogunate, he donated the Hiroshi of Edo. Since the beginning of the Great Plan, it has become the ruling center of the Tokugawa shogunate and a symbol of the strength and authority of the Tokugawa shogunate.
If the Qing people are destroyed here, then it will not only destroy a residential city, but also the authority of the whole Mufan ruling class, and even destroy the Tokugawa family's rule over Japan, which has been passed down for 200 years. Although the Tokugawa family is a little perverted and greedy, there is still a political mind. .
He also felt that the other party seemed to be deliberately restraining, otherwise, it would not be as simple as five warships firing a ship cannon. Tokugawa Ieqi knew that it was time for him to make a decisive decision.
"Yes, I will definitely live up to the general." Nobuaki Matsudaira, who had been waiting beside him for a long time, replied loudly. He also knew this kind of thing. Except for him, the chief middle-aged man, others were really not qualified.
"Wait..." The Tokugawa family turned his eyes: "On that treaty, there are some that our shogunate can be the masters, but there are some treaties that involve the society of my country, and need to be able to make a decision by the emperor, so..."
Nobuaki Matsudaira couldn't help but brighten his eyes. He had already understood it. That is to say, the negotiation was okay. However, for those terms and conditions that were not very harmful to the side, they could be agreed in advance. As for some clauses that would damage the rule and prestige of the shogunate after signing, they would be pushed to the emperor. After all, the emperor was The nominal monarch. He is the original.
Soon, Nobuaki Matsudaira, the elders of the Tokugawa shogunate, Tadanori Makino, and several servants sent by Tokugawa rushed to the flagship Red Shark of the Qing National Fleet.
"The old Nobuaki Matsudaira of the shogunate, Tadano Tadayoshi Makino, Osaka, etc. have met the general of the Shangguo. I don't know that the general of Shangguo came and couldn't welcome him from afar. I hope that the general of Shangguo will not be blamed." As soon as Songping Nobuaki came up, he maintained a low profile and was extremely respectful.
Liang Pengfei looked at these Japanese who bent to the extreme, glanced at Ling Longyu beside him, and saw his sure eyes. Then he turned his face and said, "Since you are coming on behalf of the shogunate, I think you can explain what all the previous hostile actions were like. What's going on? Didn't you see the high war flag flying on the warship of my Qing Dynasty?
"You..." Osaka Castle Makino Zhongjing tilted his nose. This guy is too damned, and the typical villain complained first. Taking a deep breath, Osaka Castle Dai Makino Tadayuki said in a low voice, "General of Shangguo, my Edo Bay is the forbidden place of the capital. No foreign ships are allowed to enter, but the warship of General Shangguo did not inform or explain, so he directly broke into my Edo Bay..."
"Oy, according to what you mean, it's my fault?" Liang Pengfei raised the corner of his eyes and said.
"I dare not, but I think that no matter what the general is, he should not sink our country's warship and bombard our Edo port." Osaka Castle Yomakino Tadayoshi raised his head with a loyal and brave spirit, which provoked several Japanese people around him to secretly applaud in their hearts.
"First, my warships are hung with the national flag of the Qing Dynasty, which has shown our identity. Second, the country of the suzerain, the vassals, the vassals, should be grandly welcomed, but your warships dare to open fire on the general's warship indiscriminately without asking, so, I just sank those warships, which was a light punishment, and you not only didn't mean to welcome our heavenly king's division, but also laid heavy troops in the port. Don't you want to resist? In this case, if I don't give you a small warning, I'm afraid you won't appear on my warship now, right? Liang Pengfei stretched out his hand and scratched his scalp, holding another hand with a cigar and pointed at the Japanese in front of him.
Hearing this, a crowd of people looked like Zhu Zi. Well, let Liang Pengfei's almost nonsense hold back. However, although the reason is far-fetched, there is a reason after all.
--------------------
"General of the Shangguo, we will no longer be entangled in these trivial matters. Matsudaira, on behalf of the shogunate, extended a deep apology to the general for the fact that our warriors dared to open fire on the Chinese fleet." Matsudaira Nobuaki took a deep breath, bowed to the ground, and flew to Liang Peng.
"Well, since you have all apologized, if I pursue it again, wouldn't it be detrimental to the benevolence of my heavenly kingdom, and that matter will not be mentioned for the time being. However, another thing, I want to mention that you, the Satsamo clan of the Japanese country, dared to invade Ryukyu, the vassal of my Qing Dynasty, for no reason. You are ready for this matter. What's the answer?" Liang Pengfei took a deep breath of a cigar with a relaxed face. At this time, he was grinding his mouth. Master Liang was so idle that he happened to take this ticket to make a fool of the Japanese.
Matsudaira Nobuaki exchanged a wink with Na Makino and replied, "General of the Shangguo, our shogunate really did not know about this. This should be done by the Satsuma clan in private. General of the Shangguo, please rest assured that we will severely punish the Satsuma clan and will not let such things happen again."
"Ha ha, this sounds good, but I heard that the words of your shogunate don't seem to have much effect on the Shimazu family who ruled the Satsuma clan, right? Well, this belongs to your privacy, and I won't ask, but what I want to know is, how are you going to punish it severely? Liang Pengfei narrowed his eyes and smiled.
"This... We must report to my general, and then the general will make a decision." Although Nobuaki Matsudaira seems to be a little cowardly in dealing with politics, after all, he is an old oil stick that has been in the officialdom for decades. The answer is so cunning that people can't catch a little mistake.
"In this case, I would like to remind you first that since the thirty-seventh year of the Wanli of the Ming Dynasty, the Satsuma Domain forcibly occupied Ryukyu, a vassal of our Qing Dynasty, and then cruelly exploited the Ryukyu Kingdom. Therefore, I don't have much opinion on what you want to deal with him, but they must make compensation. What is the amount of wealth exploited from the Ryukyu Kingdom over the past 185 years? I don't remember my last name well. Please tell these Japanese lords to listen to them, Lord of the Imperial Throne.
"The life of the general of the Shangguo." Next to him, a Ryukyu minister stood up from the crowd. After respectfully saluting Liang Pengfei, he turned his head. There was a smile on his face, but his eyes reminded the injured female wolf with Songping Nobuaki and a group of Japanese. The resentful and crazy eyes that wanted revenge made everyone shudder in their hearts.
