On the morning of March 3, when fishermen in the Yokohama area were fishing at sea as usual, they unexpectedly saw a row of warships approaching menacingly.
"Another Western warship!"
The fishermen on the boat said loudly.
"Hey, Japan is finished. Tokyo has been occupied by Westerners."
"Hey, there are treacherous ministers around the emperor, and all the samurai gentlemen have been laid off. Without samurai, who will defend Japan?"
"Isn't there also Mr. Zhentai!"
"Zhentai? They are just a bunch of mud-legged people..."
For the fishermen, the respect for samurai has long been engraved in their bones. Thousands of years of tradition have made them believe that the emperor is just a decoration and the country is governed by the general. What about the farmers? Of course it belongs to the samurai master.
When the fishermen were talking to each other, the fishermen in front of them were surprised.
"Look, that's not a Western warship. It seems to be... a warship from the Ming Dynasty. Yes, it's a warship from the Ming Empire!"
"Yes, it's the sun and moon flag!"
"Xinxi, now we are saved!"
The Ming fleet is coming!
In just a few hours, the news spread from Yokohama to Tokyo, and from Tokyo to other places. For a time, people who were originally worried about the fate of Japan were all excited, and the people who were originally depressed were all excited.
Vibrate.
Dad Ming is here!
No more worries!
For a time, there were shouts of "Banzai of the Ming Dynasty" and "Banzai of the Ming Empire" everywhere. This was true in Tokyo, and it was also true in other places.
"Damn Western Dog!"
After knocking Fukuzawa Yukichi to the ground with a sword, the samurai who broke into the classroom slashed at tables, chairs and other objects. Books, pens, ink and other objects were all overturned under the blows of the wooden swords.
On the ground, with their blows, the classroom was in a mess.
"Take off and enter Europe, Fuze, you damn guy, you are really a lackey of the Westerners!"
Kamikawa, who was holding a wooden sword, stared at Fukuzawa Yukichi and yelled.
Fukuzawa Yukichi, who was knocked to the ground, never thought of fighting back. From the day the Westerners invaded, he and Keio Yoshiaki became a thorn in everyone's side, especially when he faced the invasion, he advocated "
The statement that “it is even more important to learn from the West and Europe at this critical moment” has long been regarded as a spy. Now, after learning that the Ming Dynasty fleet has sailed into Tokyo Bay, people were excited and finally found their backbone.
As a result, a samurai immediately came to his door and smashed his Keio Yoshiaki.
"It's guys like you who have been here to deceive people all these years. It's you who introduced Western monsters to Japan. Now the emperor is killed and Tokyo is occupied. It's all because of you! Smash it, smash it all..."
Not only must they be smashed, but they must also be burned.
Soon a fire was lit in the classroom, and Fukuzawa Yukichi, who was covered in wounds, looked at Keio Yoshiro who was caught in the flames and muttered to himself in a dull manner.

"You, you don't understand, you don't understand, learn, learn English, and learn foreign languages not for the sake of Japan, but for the future of Japan!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone spat at him.
"Pooh!"
A passerby said loudly.
"Foreigners want to devour Japan and make Japan a colony. If we follow their example, we are not throwing ourselves into a trap!"
"That's it, Ming Dynasty. Only learning from Ming Dynasty is the right way. If the Tang Dynasty didn't treat Tang envoys so favorably, and we have Japan, today Japan is occupied by Westerners. Ming Dynasty would not forget the old grudges and send troops to help. It is really the duty of the heaven to not learn from it!
For such a benevolent and righteous country to imitate Westerners? Isn’t that not to associate with wolves?”
"Oh, what is a superior state? It is clearly the mother state. The Ming Dynasty is China, and China is my mother state of Japan!"
When they talked about the Ming Dynasty, their tone was extremely respectful. Even when they mentioned "China", the "Mother State", especially the "power of the Mother State", their expressions of joy were simply
It's even worse than Yourong Yan's appearance.
There was no way around this. After all, the heavy blow from the Western monsters made the Japanese lose all their courage. In fact, if the samurai class had not been destroyed, maybe they would not have lost their courage so quickly.
But the problem is that the reform government has just destroyed Japan's samurai class. This backbone of society is not just Japan's elite. Samurai ideas have long penetrated into all aspects of Japan. The samurai who are extremely loyal to their lord have been abandoned.
,How many people are still willing to serve the emperor?
The old values were destroyed, and the new values have not yet been established. The impact of ideological confusion on the Japanese can be imagined. In addition, the Western artillery fire was so fierce that it only took one day to occupy Tokyo.
.The fear of Westerners suddenly came to my bones.
The character of the Japanese is like this. They admire the strong and bully the weak. They are extremely arrogant and extremely inferior. It is also this character that makes the Japanese people face psychological shock. If the opponent is weak, they will be arrogant to the extreme. If the opponent is weak, they will be extremely arrogant.
If they are strong, then they will have extremely low self-esteem. Almost on the day when Tokyo was captured, when everyone in Japan talked about the Westerners, the first thing that arose was that they were invincible.
In the past, Westerners were only powerful, but what about now?
It is simply invincible. One thing that is even certain is that Japan is simply vulnerable to Western countries. If it is vulnerable, why should it resist?
For a time, morale in Japan fell to the bottom, and defeatism spread rapidly. Even the Japanese did not think there was anything wrong with this. In fact, the Japanese adhered to one principle - the strong is respected.
In the past few years, why were the Japanese people willing to be oppressed by samurai? Even samurai could test the sword on civilians at any time, and civilians were willing to be chopped off. If their eyes collided, it would be normal for their heads to be chopped off.
Already.
The Japanese are M at heart. Their national character is to respect the strong. Since they are Westerners, surrender to Westerners. There is nothing wrong with this.
But despite this, they still feel a little unwilling in their hearts. After all, Westerners are like ghosts and beasts. If they accept their rule, wouldn't they be working with ghosts and beasts? But they have to accept it.
Of course, the most important thing is the atrocities committed by those British and American bastards in Tokyo during this period. They are also outrageous. Who doesn’t have a wife and daughter?
But what about now?
The emergence of the Ming Dynasty, no, it should be said that it was the intervention of the Ming Dynasty that gave them another hope.
First of all, the Ming Dynasty is very strong. Secondly, from a historical point of view, being a dog of the Ming Dynasty is very happy. It is definitely better than being a colony of Westerners!
Being Daming’s dog is actually a good choice!
As a result, almost overnight, Ming Dynasty became a glimmer of hope for the Japanese people in desperate situations, like a beacon in the dark night. It illuminated their dark and hopeless lives.
Because of this, I don’t know how many people have transformed into celebrities overnight. They have completely changed many of their views and ideas overnight. After all, reality can always teach people to grow in many cases.
Listening to people's words and seeing their excitement when they mentioned the Ming Dynasty, Fukuzawa Yukichi shouted in confusion.
"The Ming Dynasty fleet is still in Hiroshima, but when did it go to Tokyo?"
