C709 Japanese Idiot (1/2)
Shan Xianyoupeng and Xi Xianglongsheng would definitely be directly responsible for Gao Shanjinzuo's death. If not for the fact that they were still trying to gamble their lives, even under such a situation where the odds were clearly against them, Gao Shanjinzuo would not have died.
In the Inverted Pie, Gao Shanjinzuo's prestige was extremely high, he and Shan Xianyoupeng were not even on the same level, but for various reasons, the Changzhou vassal still chose Shan Xianyoupeng as the representative of the allied army, and Xi Xianglongsheng was even faintly estranged from him.
Xiao Letian was too lazy to analyze the motives of these people, but when he thought about it, it should be the same as hating Sakamoto Ryoma.
However, the despicable one would never discover his despicability, just like how Crow never thought she was very dark and ugly. Japanese samurai, who did not have the spirit to reflect on things, would naturally blame others for her crimes.
When Xiao Letian observed for three minutes and was about to turn around and leave, Shan Xianyoupeng suddenly opened his mouth and said, ”This is what you want? Prime Minister Xiao of the East China Sea was indeed good. With a flip of his hand, he turned the clouds into rain, and without any sacrifice, he took away more than 10,000 lives in Japan! ”What a brilliant method …”
Xiao Letian was stunned, he turned his head and looked at Shan Xianyoupeng: ”Are you talking about me? You actually pushed the sins of these ten thousand dead soldiers onto my head? ”
This morning, the allied army and the Mu Clan had already begun their construction. Through simple statistics, the number of people that died in this bloody battle of Osaka was around fifteen thousand, of which eight thousand died in the battle of Southwest Allied Army and seven thousand in the Mu Clan.
This was the number of casualties, while the seriously injured soldiers still numbered around 10,000, while the other soldiers all had light injuries.
In this battle, the Southwest Allied Army had sent out a total of 35,000 troops, while the Mu Clan Army had invested a total of 25,000 people.
In the history of Japan, this was already a large-scale battle. Although the number of people couldn't be compared to the war between Guan Yuan and Chang Xiao, the total value of this war between the Osaka City s was comparable to the ancient times.
These 60,000 strong army had almost completely plundered all of Japan's assets and assets. This was not a war that Warring States Period's farmers could do without bamboo spears, even if they managed to touch a small threshold in a modern war, they were still a huge gold-eating monster.
With 25,000 members lost in battle and countless of damaged equipment, the House of the Chaotic Storm and the House of the Chaotic Storm were severely injured. According to ISI's estimates, if they wanted to train such an army, it would take at least another three years.
Three years, what a precious three years, Xiao Letian used his scheme to push the time for the unification of Japan back by at least three years. This is the era of the major change which has never been seen in three thousand years. The three years that you retreated and the three years that others advanced are the six years difference between them.
Japanese was also not a fool. They could understand this logic, so the grumpy Shan Xianyoupeng could not hold it in anymore. He was the first one to attack Xiao Letian.
”Everyone in the world knows the methods of the Prime Minister Xiao of the East China Sea. Even you can participate in the Western Wars. But I don't understand why you won't let Japan go. ”Why do you want to make Japan bleed so much...”
Without waiting for Xiao Letian to speak, Sakamoto Ryoma shouted angrily, ”What kind of nonsense is this? The Inverted Pie was not formed by the Prime Minister Xiao, and the allied army was not personally trained by the Prime Minister Xiao. Even this war was not instigated by the Prime Minister … Why should the Prime Minister bear all of our sins! ”
”Not only that, the Prime Minister even gave us thousands of rifles and sold us countless weapons at a lower price. If not for the Prime Minister's help, how could we have built such a great army so quickly?” ”Shanxian Jun, don't forget your roots …” Sakamoto Ryoma said with sorrow.
”No …” ”You're wrong, we've all fallen into his trap. Xiao Letian wanted us to fight a civil war, wanted us to bleed, and made us fight to the death for the sake of profit. He was the last fisherman …”
”Prime Minister, may I ask why you aren't selling our cannons?” Why don't you sell us the latest explosives? Why didn't you give me the latest grenade? Just why is this happening!? ” Shan Xianyoupeng screamed at the top of his lungs.
”If we had these weapons, how could we lose this war? We've already put an end to this civil war... Damn it, everything has been for naught! ”
Xiao Letian was already shocked. He was not angry, nor was he speechless.
”You're weak, but you still have reason? I have to give you what you want? Your Japanese civil war has never ended, blame me! ”
Xiao Letian flew into a rage, ”What kind of bastard is this logic? I, Xiao Letian, have lived for so long and have never eaten your Japanese's food nor drank your Japanese's water. What is it? Do I still owe you? I helped you guys and there was something wrong with it? ”
”Ever since Sakamoto Ryoma and I reached an agreement on military assistance, I have already given you three thousand and five hundred rifles for free. In total, you have already reached 200 thousand silver taels, and this doesn't even include the weapons that I sold to you at a low price.
