My Opinion in Gensokyo

Thinking of this, Kondo Isao sighed in relief, and asked seriously.

"So, uncle, are we being summoned now to issue a formal punishment?"

"Well, although they are absolutely dissatisfied with us, they are not yet ready to issue a formal punishment," Matsudaira Kata Lihu calmly analyzed, "If you do that openly, it is tantamount to admitting that you have something to do with Purgatory Pass, but now ..."

At the same time, in a taxi not far behind the police car in which Matsudaira Katurihu and Kondo Isao were riding, Shang Yang, who had sorted out his thoughts, continued to analyze.

"According to Matsudaira Kataguriko, 'the Heavenly Daoists don't want others to know their relationship with Purgatory Pass.' It can also be deduced from this that the Heavenly Daoists are organizations that 'need' reputation, and if they 'need' reputation, it means The Heavenly Daoists are not shadows completely hidden behind the shogunate, but are in a semi-open state to influence the country."

Speaking of this, Shang Yang snapped his fingers, originally blocking Shang Yang's words, so as not to let the power of Liangyi heard by the taxi driver in front dissipate, and then, Shang Yang asked the driver who was driving, as if chatting. road.

"Brother, we are all foreign businessmen who just came to Edo, do you know that we have an organization called Tiandaozhong here?"

"Tiandaozhong~?" Hearing this uncommon word, the taxi driver thought about it carefully, "I don't seem to have heard of it... Ah, yes, it seems that I heard some customers who worked in the shogunate talk about it. The way of heaven or something, composed of heaven and man, manages the business of the shogunate and the heavens, I wonder if this is the institution that the guest is talking about?"

"Ah, probably, thank you, driver."

Speaking of this, Shangyang once again blocked the sound transmission from the rear seat and the front driver's seat with the power of Yinyi, turned around and continued to analyze to Ai and Huiye who heard the conversation between him and the driver thoughtfully.

"This can be regarded as corroborating my previous conjecture. Then, as we know, at the end of the "One Country Allure" chapter, one of the Heavenly Daoists descended on Osaka Castle and had a conversation with General Tokugawa Shigeru, '... To continue to cause turmoil is obviously not the intention of both of you and me...' Saying "both of you and me" to the general who is the leader of the shogunate clearly proves that the Tiandao people do not belong to the shogunate system in "name". It's on an equal footing with the shogunate."

"Then, why the Heavenly Daoists who are not part of the shogunate can exercise most of the power of the shogunate, the answer is actually very simple."

Having said that, Shang Yang showed an interested smile.

"War is an extension of politics, and the root of all political issues is economic issues. In essence, Tiandaozhong are 'businessmen' just like us."

"For this country, the trade with the various planets in the universe is not so much trade as it is to let the industrial products of the various planets in the universe flood any part of this country."

"Since the founding of the shogunate, Edo, and even this country, have become more and more dependent on everything from the outside world, such as convenient electronic industrial products, means of transportation, and emerging industries attached to every planet in the universe."

"Even if the shogunate wants to close the country again now, even if the heaven and man do not intervene in any way, the shogunate will surely be destroyed soon."

"Well... That is to say," Kaguya nodded thoughtfully, and said figuratively, "Originally this country was just an independent life, and it could survive only on its own, but the current situation is that this The country has become a part of the whole life of the galaxy, and even the civilizations of the universe, and has lost the ability to become independent again."

"Forcibly disconnecting, it will be like a blood vessel being cut off," Ai continued softly, "The 'Edo' part will be necrotic."

"That's the thing," Shangyang continued after hearing that Ai and Huiye understood his reasoning without taking any time, "similarly, according to what we know, during the war against barbarians, one of the Heavenly Daoists Going down to earth and wounding Shinsuke Takasugi's eyes. At the same time, the Heavenly Taoists were the main contributors to forcing the shogunate to open the country."

"Maximize the role of Edo as a transfer station of the space route, and inject a large amount of industrial capital and financial capital into Edo, so that Edo can complete the modernization, become a node that affects the space route, and obtain a steady stream of value."

"The status quo is quite obvious. The Heavenly Daoists are an international banking consortium similar to my original world line, but they don't need the support of any Celestial Planet. They are huge and have a huge influence on the galaxy and even the universe. At the same time, it has enough armed forces (as can be seen from the fleet that descended on Osaka Castle in the chapter of Allurement of a Nation) cosmic banking group."

"Or, judging that Tiandaozhong is a monopolistic interstellar financial group, they are too underestimated. Rather than saying that they are a cosmic banking group, it is better to say that Tiandaozhong is an unconstrained East India Company in the universe."

"This is why the Tiandao people are not part of the shogunate, but they can exercise most of the power of the shogunate. They do not need to exercise administrative power through 'control' or 'overhead'. They control Edo and even the whole country. With the economic structure of the country, they naturally have the greatest say in power."

"Similarly, this is why Isaburo Sasaki (the chief of the patrol team) said, 'I didn't change the general to be a general, the naive idea that this world can be changed, and build a powerful country that can compete with other countries without relying on the power of other countries , although the master of the Hitotsubashi faction seems to have great ambitions, but I have no intention of agreeing with his reason for boasting about such a small cowhide."

Speaking of this, Shang Yang paused for a while, and smiled as if admiring.

"Having such insight, Isaburo Sasaki really deserves to be the elite among the elites. Yoshiki Tokugawa (the master of the Hitotsubashi faction) is the enemy of the Tendo people, but the Tendo people don't care too much about the existence of the Hitotsubashi faction and are loyal to the way of heaven Oboro, one of the Naraku Sanha, said, "Suffering is not the existence of the Hitotsubashi faction. At best, it is just a puppet like Tokugawa Sadasada and others. The real danger is the one who has the information and is closer to the center. The existence of the Songyang sect'."

"It's not about controlling the shogunate, but controlling the economic structure of the country, and using this to extend its tentacles to all parts of the country, truly and truly controlling the country, no matter how the shogunate changes, even if the shogunate Destroy, and not be able to substantially drive the crows out of this country."

"This is the so-called head of the world."

"Heavenly Taoists."

ps: 1 international banking syndicate: an international financial capital group in the modern history of China, an imperialist monopoly consortium that exported capital to China.

Above, this is our brain hole about the background of Gintama when watching Gintama. How about it, is this brain hole big enough~?Well, as I said before, everyone who has different opinions is welcome to post book reviews, or come to the group, if you are interested, we can chat in detail~

In the same way, here I declare again that Mr. Shangyang has no special thoughts about the heavenly people, nor does he have any special thoughts about the great cause of eliminating barbarians. This guy is the same as us. Ai and Kaguya are showing off, and at the same time we are showing off to everyone how much brain power we have...

Uh-huh, it is not a simple matter to fight against barbarians, and Shang Yang has no idea of ​​participating in it. Even Yinsang, who is a member of the Songyang sect, has given up fighting against barbarians, because he clearly understands that the invasion of heaven and man will come after 20 years. Now, it's hard to tell whether it's good or bad. Wig (Gui) also understands this truth, so he has become a moderate.
