Expedition to Europe

Not only Ito Tomoji and his men are slowly aging over the years, but also the once vigorous Great Japanese Empire.

Just when Ito Tomoji met Huang Yinrong, the director of the Cam Ranh Bay Shipyard, a convoy of carriages drove into the Lan Fang Headquarters in Japan.

In fact, if the building is not required to be magnificent, it is really simple to build a good headquarters in Japan.

The construction workers from Lan Fang are very efficient. After they flattened the buildings in the former "Yasukuni Shrine", a row of fully functional cabins rose from the ground.

Japan is a country with a high incidence of earthquakes. There are always hundreds of earthquakes of all sizes every day. In the past one or two years, there will be a powerful Kanto earthquake. Although Qin Zhiyuan does not remember the specific time of the Kanto earthquake, he has to be prepared. Therefore, the buildings in the Lan Fang Headquarters in Japan are almost all wooden buildings. This type of building has the strongest resistance to earthquakes. Even if it collapses, it will not cause serious casualties.

The most feared thing for wooden buildings is fire. However, in the Lan Fang Headquarters in Japan, except for the kitchen, the remaining houses are not connected to gas, which will minimize the occurrence of fires.

It has been more than half a month since they entered Japan, but Qin Haoge and Yang Kai still haven't visited the Japanese Emperor. It's not that Qin Haoge and Yang Kai are too busy, but Qin Haoge and Yang Kai deliberately leave Emperor Taisho alone.

Some people can't be treated well, such as the Japanese, who are best at getting ahead of others.

Qin Haoge and Yang Kai can keep their composure, but Emperor Taisho can't. Although Lan Fang and Japan have signed the "Coconut City Agreement", and the subsequent contact with Lan Fang is also in the charge of Acting Prime Minister Uchida Yasuya, Emperor Taisho still has to meet Qin Haoge in person to have a clear mind.

"I heard that Taisho is less than 1.5 meters tall, so even if I slump my waist, I am taller than Taisho." Yang Kai, who was standing at the door of Qin Haoge's office waiting for Emperor Taisho, was curious.

"Won't you know in a while? If you don't believe it, you can go and compare your height with Taisho." Qin Haoge had bad intentions.

Even if Yang Kai is not 1.8 meters tall, he is at least 1.75 meters tall, which is much taller than Da Zheng. If Yang Kai and Da Zheng stand together, it will be like an adult taking care of a child. If the scene is photographed and published in the newspaper, it will be a heavy blow to the Japanese who always emphasize "high-end".

So it seems that Qin Haoge's personal performance will be better. After all, Qin Haoge is more than 1.8 meters tall, plus the addition of military boots and military cap, he looks more than 1.85 meters tall, and the contrast seems to be even greater.

"Xiao Zhong, take a picture for me later, and take a good picture. Let my son take a good look when he grows up." Yang Kai is less than 30 years old this year, and he has already begun to accumulate capital for bragging in front of the next generation in the future.

"Don't worry, deputy commander, I promise to take a picture of you that looks majestic." Propaganda Section Chief Zhong Jianxun is ready.

All the troops of Lan Fang have been equipped with a propaganda department, and video and photographic equipment are fully equipped. On the one hand, this is to accumulate various image data, and on the other hand, it is also to collect materials for propaganda of Lan Fang’s army.

Qin Zhiyuan, who came from the 21st century, knows the importance of cultural mouth. In this era when there is no Internet, the people really believe what the state propaganda machine says, and propaganda work is really not too easy to do.

In the era when there was no Internet, television, and radio were not popular, even movies were black and white and silent...

Whether it is black and white or silent, as long as there are conditions, all the information must be recorded. These image materials are already historical relics and are very rare.

"Hey, the emperor is too stingy. After all, he is the emperor. Even if he doesn't get a Jueying, at least he should get a Zhuifeng." Yang Kai still looked down on Taisho's carriage.

"Zhuifeng" and "Jueying" are two famous horses in Chinese history. In this time and space, they are Lan Fang's domestic civilian car brands.

Lan Fang's car factory started construction ten months ago, and now four production lines have been built.

No, it's not appropriate to describe it as a production line. It should be an assembly line. Lan Fang cannot produce auto parts such as engines and gearboxes. It can only produce some relatively simple ones. Those core parts have to be imported from Europe.

But this is not a problem. Lan Fang's engine factory is about to be completed and is expected to be put into production after the new year. By then, Lan Fang will be able to produce engines and gearboxes by itself and completely realize complete localization.

"Zhuifeng" is a civilian jeep brand produced by a car factory in Jinzhou. The road traffic conditions in this era are not very good. Jeeps actually have a wider market space than sedans. Qin Zhiyuan carefully designed the appearance of two jeeps, one of which is a Wrangler style and was determined to be the basic model of the "Zhuifeng" series.

It's just that the appearance is similar, and the actual configuration is still different. However, how many people in this era are pursuing configuration? It's good to have some.

Unlike the "Zhuifeng" which has been identified as an off-road vehicle, the "Jueying" is a sedan with a soft roof design, which means that the "Jueying" can be turned into a convertible at any time, which can fully meet the personal needs of pursuing speed.

"Zhuifeng" and "Jueying" are just two basic models. In the future, there will be "Phantom", "Red Rabbit", "Wuzui" and other series to meet people's different needs.

"Tsk, let alone Dazheng, even we are using "Bulldog" now, Dazheng has to wait in line if he wants it." Qin Haoge didn't mean to be respectful.

You really have to queue up. Once the "Zhuifeng" and "Jueying" were launched, they were immediately sought after by the market. Now it is hard to get a car, and the orders have been placed for two years.

American Ambassador to Lanfang Glynton Augustine got a "Jueying" through Lu Zhengxiang's relationship. Glynton Augustine brought the car back to the United States. The appearance of "Jueying" immediately caused a sensation in the United States, and orders from the United States poured in, which led to the popularity of "Jueying".

At present, Ford is still the leader of the global automobile industry. The Model T launched by Ford occupies more than 80% of the market share. Ford has a fatal weakness, that is, the hot sales have made Henry Ford lose his vigilance. Ford only produces one model, and even only one color-black, which is far from meeting the needs of the American people. Therefore, the colorful and unique "Jueying" immediately caused a sensation in the United States once it was withdrawn. Even if the price of "Jueying" is twice that of Ford Model T, people who want to buy "Jueying" still flock to it.

Qin Zhiyuan must seize the opportunity to deal with such a hot situation, so a car factory in Detroit, USA, is under construction, and it is estimated that it will be put into production by the middle of next year.

Just as Qin Haoge and Yang Kai were chatting, the motorcade arrived in front of Qin Haoge's office. The door of one of the luxuriously decorated carriages opened, and a dwarf walked down the stairs.

He is really a dwarf. Don't say 1.5 meters, saying 1.5 meters is already an exaggerated compliment. At most, he is 1.4 meters, or even less than 1.4 meters, which is shorter than the horse pulling the carriage.

Speaking of which, Japanese horses are really good. Since the Meiji Restoration, Japan has begun to improve horses, especially military horses. Fifty or sixty years have passed, and Japan's "horse improvement" has begun to bear fruit. In the current Japanese army, most of the horses used are hybrids of Mongolian horses and Western horses. They are tall, strong, strong in sprinting, and have good endurance. Literary works in another time and space always describe Japanese cavalry as "Oriental horses". From the perspective of military horses, that is not an exaggeration.

Qin Haoge and Yang Kai have seen many Japanese. Although they are generally not tall, they are not so short that they are horrible. Emperor Taisho has obviously refreshed the bottom line of Qin Haoge and Yang Kai, and he is short to a new level.

"Your Majesty, welcome to you." Even if the weird feeling in his heart is getting stronger and stronger, Qin Haoge can still maintain basic courtesy.

The original text is in Liu # 9 @Book/Bar!

"General Qin, it's nice to meet you." Taisho's attitude is also quite low, and he doesn't have much pride as an "emperor".

What a boast! The army was taught a lesson on the battlefield just like a father beating his son. As the emperor, Taisho was forced to come to Qin Haoge's headquarters to pay homage to Qin Haoge, and he had to come. It can be said that Emperor Taisho has put aside all his self-esteem and is ready to use complete submission to keep his position.

Emperor Taisho is indeed in danger of losing his position. In Japan at present, the only popular newspaper is Lan Fang's "Daily News". As the official mouthpiece of Lan Fang, "Daily News" will definitely not say good things about Emperor Taisho. Qin Haoge is so dark that he organized a group of people to discuss the necessity of the emperor's existence in the newspaper every day. That group of people includes not only people from the Republic of China and Goryeo, but also people from Japan.

Qin Haoge asked this group of people to discuss the necessity of the emperor's existence, not because he wanted the emperor to abdicate now, because if the emperor was driven out of the "Imperial Palace" now, the Japanese society that had lost its spiritual support might be disrupted, and that was not what Qin Haoge wanted.

Qin Haoge wanted to attack the reputation of the Japanese emperor. No matter what conclusions were drawn from those discussions, openly discussing the necessity of the emperor's existence in newspapers and periodicals was a damage to the emperor's prestige.

"I'm really sorry. I should have met with your majesty as soon as possible. Unfortunately, I was busy with official duties, so I have not been able to go. Please forgive me, your majesty." Qin Haoge said nicely, but there was not much "apology" in his mouth.

"General Qin is too modest. General Qin is a guest. Yoshihito should have taken the initiative to visit. Unfortunately, he was in poor health some time ago. Please don't be offended, General Qin." Emperor Taisho was still smart. He resolved his embarrassment with a casual sentence.

"Come on, come on, let me take a photo with His Majesty, General Qin, come with us?" Yang Kai was busy greeting him, and pulled Qin Haoge with ill intentions.

"Haha, okay." Qin Haoge was naturally okay with it. Let Yang Kai go with Taisho in the middle.

This...

This style is too discordant, just like two parents taking care of a child, and they are both of the same sex!

It's so dirty, the annual lich king is so dirty!

"Come on, everyone, please look at the camera together." Zhong Jianxun tried his best.

"Wait!" Suddenly a voice came.

Qin Haoge and Yang Kai, who were laughing happily, and Da Zheng, who looked miserable, turned their heads to look at the acting Prime Minister Uchida Yasuya.

"What, do you have any objections?" Qin Haoge's voice was not loud, but the chill in his voice could really freeze a person to death.
