Welcome to 19th-century Europe, where strength reigns supreme

August chatted with He Gong for a while, and then he discovered that He Gong was only seventeen years old this year, and he was already a wife, and she had to be from Japan, and it was inevitable that the noble circle was really chaotic, so Those generals who are two or three generations ahead have nothing to do with the emperor.

Sure enough, guanxi households are the eternal truth. As an official of the shogunate, he is too embarrassed to talk to others if he is not a relative of the boss. August also found out that the Japanese royal family also likes to keep their wealth and water from outsiders, and with Europe The royal family is so ungrateful that these Europeans have made the whole of Europe close to each other. What do the Japanese really mean? My son is also my mother's son, or my sister's son seems to have something to do with me.

However, Wakiya and Nagato's generation seemed to be relatively normal and did not have any serious genetic diseases. However, Wakong's body was thinner than August's. August casually chatted with them for a while. He left after the meeting.

In order to expand the local army, August recruited [-] adult Japanese men from Japan. Most of them were samurai from the former shogunate because they did not like the repetitive work of factory machinery. Although they could make money, they did not want to do it. , my butt is itchy all the time while sitting in the chair.

So he joined the Prussian Army. August did not call these Japanese troops the Japanese Army or the Colonial Army. They were just normal Prussian troops. August even painted a pie for them, saying how beautiful Prussia was and how it was the leader of world culture. The economy in the center is very prosperous. As a Prussian soldier, as long as you get the Iron Cross, even if you are an Japanese, you will be respected by the Germans.

It’s hard to say whether you will be looked down upon if you tell lies with your eyes open. It’s hard to say whether Prussia is beautiful or not. Anyway, the problem is based on comparison. I can say it however I like.

And these warriors finally no longer have to carry their heirloom fire sticks every day. They also picked up breech-loading rifles, which can be used by cocking the bullet and pulling the trigger. It is much better than the simple lines and extreme colors before.

They put on Prussian military uniforms, put on Prussian military caps, shaved their heads into standard crew cuts, and plunged into the Prussian army's canteen. As for the training performance of this group of people, you can't say it is very good, you can only say it is good. better than nothing.

There is no need for tactical knowledge, and the overall situation is basically bullshit. If Osman is not alive and suffers from Osman's disease, he will never leave a way for the Prussian officers who guide him to survive. As the head of the Prussian Military Academy, Ron also takes on the responsibility of teaching and educating people. responsibilities.

But when he saw the configuration of the Japanese warriors, they moved around in confusion and screamed at the top of their lungs. In the first week of training, the instructor headed by him had already eaten three big bowls. The next step is to advance ICU.

I originally thought that even if Japan were to seize it again, the army would definitely have a well-established army. No matter how much weapons were acquired and no matter how backward the ideas were, it would not be like this. However, it turned out that the Japanese army had a very strange organization, even more powerful than the Holy Roman Empire.

It turned out that the expectations were still too high. What about primitive people? This is the most primate type.

There is a huge gap between Tokyo and Kyoto. After all, the top leaders are not the same. Ron was even curious. If they want to fight externally, Kyoto and Tokyo will have to fight first, right? Of course, other small places are not much better. Just in the big place like Kyushu, there are several big names, all of whom are talented people, who vividly embody their dreams in life.

Now that it has been launched, it has left a lot of mess for the General Staff. In this situation, there are private soldiers everywhere, and the quality of weapons varies. Before the war, there were only less than [-] people who could be called an army. They were all armed with shotguns, and those who fought with the Prussian army behind them were all private soldiers of various princes. They got together to fight and fight, and they went up to the mountains to fight guerrillas.

In this way, the Prussian army was consumed for more than half a month, and considering Japan's national conditions, it is indeed lucky that it may have its own ideas.

To be honest, it is estimated that when these people really fight, they will just fight with each other at the entrance of the village, or throw arrogant punches from afar.

When Ron gave them military theory classes, it was a double torture. First of all, he didn't know Japanese at all and had to find a translator. Even if it was translated into Japanese, these people wouldn't understand it. The basic cultural level was too low. , of course, it may be that they don’t understand the professional terminology.

Education is indeed the most important thing, but this thing is very long-term and cannot be achieved overnight. The military academy can only start from the most ordinary teaching.

They started learning German, then moved on to fortifications, military maps, strategic deployments, etc. For this reason, Ron even gave them an extra campus.

This has added a huge financial expenditure to the government, making the already poor financial situation even worse.

There are too many places to spend money. August can no longer spend money on military expenditures. Now that taxes cannot be collected, development will have to stagnate here and we have to wait for local funds to flow here. The industry here is revitalized.

……

At the end of June, August made preparations to visit Kyoto as planned. Kyoto was different from Tokyo in that it was the most conservative region in Japan and was also the capital of Japan in its history.

The Japanese here were relatively indifferent to Prussia. They stared at the Prussian army without saying a word. In order to achieve the effect, August deliberately put well-trained Japanese into the Prussian army.

When the people in Kyoto saw Japanese people mixed in the ranks of the Prussian army, they finally showed a look of surprise. Many of them were Kyoto people, and there were many ruffians among them. After joining the Prussian army, the change was so big.

Auguste and Valentina sat in the same carriage and started a procession through the streets.

"Miss August, where are we going?"

"The Kyoto of Japan is also called Heian Kyo. It is the birthplace of the Japanese nation. If we want to annex them, we must naturally respect their civilization. Only those who respect others deserve to be respected by others. As conquerors, we should also respect the country's According to custom, I plan to visit Fushimi Inari Daiji Temple, one of the largest shrines in Tokyo.”
