Ryuma Sakamoto didn't know why Xiao Letian told him this, but he knew very well that this Chinese man who gave him a second life would not be joking.

Looking back on his first half of his life, a corporal who came out of the countryside of the Four Kingdoms. Seeing his mother die because of him, he was helpless, and seeing his companion being killed by the sergeant but doing nothing, his heart was filled with fire at that time.

Then Edo studied to learn Kendo, studied under Katsukibashi and learned the law of the All Kingdoms. Then he followed the Banpei Tae to the Tosa King Party, and then rebelled from the vassal states until he finally became the leader of the vassal states. The four vassal states even reached an alliance because of his running.

The ups and downs of half a lifetime have allowed Ryuma Sakamoto to accumulate very strong connections, especially the Aid Society has now become the money bag for the anti-shog business. With Xiao Lotte's support, the Aid Society has now become the largest arms importer in southern Japan, while the Tokugawa Shogunate is the largest in northern Japan.

There are connections and money, and Ryukyu has a powerful foreign aid like Xiao Letian. Ryuma Sakamoto has become a rookie among the inverse forces and has the possibility of becoming the biggest boss.

"The trees are fascinated by the forest, and the wind will destroy them. Ryuma Jun, think about it carefully. There are many people who are jealous of you." Xiao Letian whispered to the contemplative Ryuma Sakamoto.

In real history, on November 15, 1867, when the captain of Ryuma and Shintaro Nakaoka and the captain of the Ryuma, Nakaoka, met in Omeya for how to fall, two assassins rushed to the second floor of Omeya in the name of a visitor, and assassinated Ryuma Sakamoto and Shintaro Nakaoka in the chaos.

Originally, Ryuma Sakamoto was not so easy to be assassinated, but because of the fierce conflict between the two leaders of the Hai Aid Team and the Lu Aid Team that day due to the reverse approach, in order to calm everyone down, Ryuma Sakamoto suggested that everyone remove their weapons and put them aside to ease the atmosphere.

This is a bad move. It is precisely because the weapon is not carried with you that the assassins have an opportunity to take advantage of. Otherwise, the sword technique of the master Ryuma Sakamoto Kitaki Edo Kitaki's sword technique would not allow the two assassins to succeed easily.

The deaths of Ryuma Sakamoto and Shintaro Nakaoka became a unsolved case in history. In the end, I don’t know who is the real murderer behind the scenes. Of course, the killer who takes the knife is just a small character on the surface. It is worth pondering who is behind the command of them.

Of course, the Tokugawa Shogunate was the first suspect, but Xiao Letian knew very well that although the Tokugawa Shogunate was the enemy of Sakamoto Ryuma, since the eight sects were offered on the ship, Ryuma Jun has become the leader of the moderate anti-strait faction. The strategy of returning to the Great Master was given to the general by Ryuma.

On the road to fighting the shogunate, whether to choose political pressure or force seizure power by force, these two policies have been swaying back and forth among the important officials of the anti-shogunate. Even if Tokugawa is an idiot, he should know to kill the force-grabbing power by force and then suppress the political pressure by force.

Therefore, the Tokugawa family may not be very likely to be behind the scenes.

On the contrary, the most likely person to attack the insiders of the Anti-Strait, the fanatical warlords who pursued the seizure of power by force, and the red-eyed jealous who envy Sakamoto Ryuma Fumiji Kung Fu, are more suspicious.

The most deadly thing is the eight sects in Ryuma-kun's ship and the great masa to General Tokugawa. Sakamoto Ryuma's gentle attitude has been regarded as rebellion by the Anti-Sutra, and the Japanese Bushido spirit has absolutely zero tolerance for the traitors.

This is actually a very important factor in the fact that Japanese politicians cannot get out. Sakamoto Ryuma is of course an anti-scene faction. He has the same goals as those fanatical samurai warriors, but as a strategist, Ryuma Jun knows how to advance and retreat, so many of his actions also take into account the interests of the enemy.

Yes, the difference between strategists and politicians and warlords is that strategists can look at problems from the perspective of God. They can choose a compromise that both enemies and us can accept. They know how to stay on the front line, and the enemy will never be killed. Appropriate tolerance will allow the entire nation to go further.

However, the narrow-minded Bushido and short-sighted politicians do not think so. In their eyes, even the interests of a small salted fish cannot be discarded, let alone given to the enemy. They must completely kill the enemy, even if the city massacre and genocide are still willing to be killed.

From this analysis, it is very likely that Ryuma Sakamoto died at the hands of his own people in history.

It is really difficult for strategists to appear in Japan, a small and violent country, because all strategists are killed by themselves, and even if there are wise people, they will not dare to come up with ideas.

Ryuma Sakamoto pondered for a long time and drank half a bottle of sake. "Ah... the Prime Minister's words made me shudder, but I had no way out. The situation in Japan has become so chaotic that someone has to come forward to solve the problem instead of creating it."

Xiao Letian shook his head and sighed and said that this guy is still a stubborn mind. It seems that some information cannot be told to him. He changed his face and smiled and said, "I also remind you to be careful and safe. The pistols around you must not leave you in the future. I have no obligation to help you Japanese nation. In the final analysis, it depends on you. It doesn't matter if you walk slowly."

Xiao Letian's sincerity completely infected Longmajun. The two of them drank this wine with great pleasure and finally Longmajun lay on the table, singing the tune of their hometown.

Xiao Letian, who walked out of the captain's room, was breathing the cold sea breeze, and his spirit was immediately excited. At this time, Torisuke and his friends had already completed push-ups, and a group of people were drinking hot soup around the big pot. It seemed that they were really tired. The dignified seven-foot man couldn't even hold the bowl. Seeing the soup in the bowl, he trembled out.

A pair of big hands helped Tonosuke stabilize the trembling Tang Bowl. Only then did the group of sword drawers realize that the Prime Minister had been standing by their side for a long time.

"Prime Minister..." A group of people subconsciously wanted to stand attentively and salute, but Xiao Letian held them down and said, "Sit down, sit down, you can't bear the five hundred push-ups, are you a little dissatisfied?"

Torinosuke and others shook their heads, "We are convinced of all the decisions of the Prime Minister. Bushido taught us to be loyal to the emperor, and the military laws of the new army also required us to obey orders. The Prime Minister pointed out that even if we were tortured, we would dare to break through..."

"Haha, OK, OK, I know you are all reliable, but I understand that if you are not convinced, I understand that this time it was the samurai of the Shimazu family who initiated the conflict, not you. From the root, you did nothing wrong."

"I'm angry about your pride. I have money in my hands for two years, so I started to spend it randomly. Good guy, I heard in Tanggu that you almost bought all the silks and even used the precious Shu brocade to make kimonos. You don't think that the generals and the Damings don't have Shu brocade's kimonos."

"Aren't you causing trouble on the street? Maybe you think it's your own money that you can spend, but have you ever thought about it? The market will eventually attract the attention of the enemy. You think it's a very individual behavior, but the consequence is that our entire plan is completely exposed..."

Xiao Letian's words silenced the sword-drawing team members present. They could not refute the Prime Minister's accusations, but Xiao Letian did not criticize them too much, but instead changed the topic, "I won't talk about your conflict for now, just say that you spend money indiscriminately, I have to criticize you severely..."

"Being a soldier is not a career for a lifetime. You will sooner or later get married and have children. Don't you leave some property for them? The monthly military pay and rewards after the war must be thrown into taverns, brothels and casinos. Don't you buy some property?"

"We are doing a business of licking blood on the knife, and we live a life of today and not tomorrow, but we can't just sink into it and accept our fate. The meaning of fighting is to make our children live better, not just for a moment of happiness."

Xiao Letian's words attracted a lot of soldiers, and in the end even the little emperor attracted him.

"Think about why Europe is so powerful now, not only because of their strong ships and sharp guns, but also what is hidden behind the strong ships and sharp guns..."

"Countless workers are working hard to build ships, many scientists rack their brains to go public relations, and countless sailors boarded sailboats and sailed to unknown seas, using their lives to explore safe waterways. Do you really think those sea maps fell from the sky for no reason?"

"There are also European troops. Do they know the dangers of fighting all over the world? They are also humans and not madmen. They will die if they hit bullets. But they still suffer all their hardships to conquer the whole world. What is their purpose?"

Xiao Letian sighed and shook his head and said, "The people of Europe in the 19th century should thank the ancestors of the 18th century for their warriors, and the warriors of the 18th century should thank the explorers who conquered the ocean in the 17th century... To put it bluntly, if there were no sacrifices and dedication from their ancestors, how could they have a happy life for future generations?"

"It can be foreseen that as long as the enterprising spirit of Europe and the United States is immortal, their descendants will be happier than each other, because the family business saved by their ancestors belongs to the whole society, and their descendants can enjoy the protection of their ancestors."

Xiao Letian patted Tonosuke on the shoulder, "You have to remember that your dedication will eventually become a happy life for descendants of your family. Don't throw all that wealth on the prostitute, and the sieve in the gambling house, just..."

The deck suddenly became silent. All the Japanese sword drawers suddenly realized that they could actually have a family. They were no longer the wild samurai and pirates who had gone to Maiba. They would sooner or later have a family with the Prime Minister.

The little emperor was even more shocked. He knew that the meaning of the prime minister's words was also to warn himself that it would be impossible for the Qing Dynasty to continue to live a life of old capital. The family business created by our ancestors will sooner or later be exhausted. He always wanted to live a small life in the past traditions without adventurous spirit, which was chronic suicide.

Xiao Letian looked at the stars all over the sky and fell into deep thought. He thought of the extremely happy life of Europeans and Americans in his previous life. At that time, the per capita energy consumption in the United States was four times that of the Chinese, and Europe was generally the same. Where did happiness come from? Just look at the per capita energy consumption.

However, good days for Europeans and Americans do not fall from the sky. High welfare always has high social wealth to support, and what does those wealth rely on is not the accumulation of hundreds of years of ancestors.
