Chapter 2822: The Black Ship Strikes

Calculate the time, is this time about the same as the last time! The last time Shen Long brought a warship to this place was in the world of "Pirates of the Caribbean". At that time, he took the King of the Seven Seas and bombed Nagasaki Port, forcing Mrs. Qing to hand over her pirate king's token Balia Er, and now his target is not Mrs. Qing, but the Tokugawa shogunate.

More than a hundred years ago, Tokugawa Ieyasu completely ended the rule of the Toyotomi family in the Osaka Summer Battle. Sanada Yukimura died in battle, and the entire Osaka army retreated. , The Tokugawa soldiers who attacked the gate of the city climbed the rock and entered Osaka Castle. The golden gourd horse seal handed down from the Hideyoshi era was actually discarded.

The entire city was turned into a sea of ​​flames, and the castle tower built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi was also burned down by the Tokugawa army. Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Yodohime's mother and son were found by the Tokugawa army in a warehouse. Not spared, the Toyotomi family perished, and Tokugawa Ieyasu unified Japan.

The Tokugawa shogunate held the real power in Japan and formed a feudal system consisting of the shogunate and the vassals, that is, the shogunate system. However, there are still some western daimyos who strengthened their own strength through contacts with Western businessmen and obtained Western weapons.

I don’t know if these things made the Tokugawa family think of the horror of the sixth-day demon king Oda Nobunaga, so the second-generation general Tokugawa Hidetada took further measures to prohibit Christianity, and ordered all foreign ships not to enter the Daimyo. Territorial commerce, can only engage in trade activities in Nagasaki and Hirado, but Chinese ships are not subject to this restriction.

At the same time, the control of the Zhuyin ship trade was strengthened, and the western daimyo was prohibited from owning large ships with a load of more than 500 shi. Zhuyin certificates were only issued to a few wealthy merchants in Kyoto who were closely related to the general.

After that, the strategy of locking up the country was strengthened many times, Spanish ships were banned from coming to Japan, and trade with Portugal was cut off, forcing British merchants to withdraw from Japan. Until now, Korean, Dutch, and Chinese merchants have continued to maintain business contacts with Japan, but It is strictly regulated and can only be traded in Nagasaki.

Because Nagasaki is the territory directly under the shogun, it is easy to control, and business can bring huge benefits to the shogun, they firmly hold this interest in their own hands, and strictly prohibit other daimyo from interfering.

"Who is the current shogun? It seems to be the ninth general, Tokugawa Ieshige, right? This guy's nickname is quite interesting, haha, bedwetting general!" Shen Long couldn't help laughing, the Tokugawa family Severely ill and frail, with slurred speech, nicknamed General Bedwetting, also known as Urinating Gongfang, which is even worse than the fifth generation general Tokugawa Tsunayoshi's nickname General Dog.

Hey, it's a pity that it's more than a hundred years late. Otherwise, if you take Xiao Yanzi with you, her bluffing temper might be very good for the female city lord Zhihu! And the merger of Lianheng during the Warring States period was much easier to deal with than the era when the Tokugawa family was the only one, right? But it doesn't matter, in the face of absolute strength, they are all scum.

From a distance, the guards in Osaka City saw this huge black battleship, and the whole Osaka City suddenly became chaotic. They hadn't experienced war for a long time. When such an unexpected guest came suddenly, Osaka Fengxing also panicked. What is it? What's the matter, what is this ship here for?

Shen Long painted the ship black on purpose. Since he wanted to force Japan to obey him, it would be interesting to get a black ship. I don’t know if the Japanese will treat General Perry the same way after a few years. Making a statue of yourself in Nagasaki? Surely it will? It is estimated that at that time, I was not only the general who pushed Japan to give up the lock switch, but also their direct ruler, so how could there be few statues to record my great achievements!

The battleship slowly approached the port,

Several Japanese-specific Anzhai boats approached cautiously, and began to ask about Shen Long's background. After hearing this, Shen Long smiled, and told them directly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here for business. This is a cargo ship, um, cargo ship!"

"The shogunate has strictly ordered that you cannot trade in Hong Kong without a seal!" The other party replied tremblingly, wanting Shen Long to leave.

But how is this possible, I have come all the way here, how can I not do business with me? I also expect to use your specialty copper and saltpeter to forge weapons! Shen Long asked an envoy to come to the ship, then looked at him and said coldly, "What if I insist on trading in Hong Kong?"

The messenger's face turned pale, but he still didn't realize the seriousness of the problem. He felt that Shen Long was just a ship, and how much noise could it cause, so he rejected Shen Long's proposal again.

"Okay, then you go back, I'll have a meal first, if no one comes over to do business with me before the meal, it means you are going to start a war with me!" Shen Long waved him to go back, and then Start with lunch.

After the envoy returned, he rowed desperately back to the shore, and finally told Osaka Fengxing the news before Shen Long fired the cannon. Osaka Fengxing immediately ordered strict vigilance to prevent the black ship from approaching the port.

It's a pity that Shen Long didn't intend to fight them personally at all. After eating and drinking enough, he commanded the battleship to open the porthole, revealing a door of black cannons. Osaka Fengxing saw it from a distance on the shore, and his face turned green. Why does a ship have so many cannons? There aren't twenty cannons in the whole of Osaka, okay?

Compared with the end of the Ming Dynasty, the level of firearms in the Qing Dynasty was regressed. Compared with the end of the Warring States Period, the level of firearms in Japan is also regressing. At least at that time, many families such as the Oda family, the Date family, and the Tachibana family had their own The iron artillery team, and developed different tactics according to their own situation.

But now, Shen Long saw through the binoculars that those warriors on the shore were still holding samurai swords in their hands? If they expect this thing to fight against themselves, then they are probably thinking too much.

"Clean up the battleships in the port first." Shen Long gave an order, and the cannons immediately began to roar. The warships used by the Tokugawa shogunate to guard Nagasaki Port were destroyed by name. There was no way to cause any disturbance to Shen Long, and even escaped. Seeing the property of the Tokugawa family vanish into nothing, Osaka Mahogany almost fainted.

In a short while, all the warships of the shogunate in the big port were wiped out. Shen Long picked up a few prisoners and asked them to go back in a small boat to report, "Is it business this time?"

When they got to the shore, they passed the news to Osaka Fengxing, and the people around Osaka Fengxing persuaded him, "This matter is absolutely unacceptable. Although the black ship is powerful, it can't go ashore. We ignore him. He will definitely leave by himself in a few days." Already!"
