1850 American Gold Tycoon

Chapter 280: Navy Uniforms

After Masahiro Abe left, Liang Yao returned to his residence in the military camp and saw Deng Yan searching the bodies of the geishas.

"If your second uncle likes it, you can choose some to sleep with."

Liang Yao said to Deng Yan with a smile.

"Ahem, my second uncle is worried about your safety and will check for you whether these geishas carry any weapons." Deng Yan said, "The Japanese are insidious and vicious, so it's better to be more careful."

"Tokugawa Ieki is not one of those mindless lower-class samurai. Assassinating me will only make the situation more difficult to deal with." Liang Yao said, "But it is true that he wants to plunge me into a land of gentleness."

"Then you will fall into the trap?" Deng Yan smiled heartlessly, "Although the powder on their faces is thicker than the city wall, these Japanese concubines are still pretty."

"Although she is somewhat pretty, she doesn't understand the language. She acts like a zombie and is very boring. The officers in California and Arizona are not married yet, right?" Liang Yao shook his head and said.

"You have to ask Elvis about the Arizona Infantry. There are indeed many officers in the California Infantry who are not married. Why, you want to give them wives?" Deng Yan teased.

"It depends on how they perform on the battlefield. The little devil wants to delay us and wants the Tokugawa shogunate to sign the contract quickly. A war is inevitable." Liang Yao said, "If it drags on for a long time, With Britain on Hong Kong Island in the south and Tsarist Russia in the north involved, things get complicated."

He has full confidence in dealing with Japan's Liang Yao. What he is most worried about is the involvement of the British troublemaker.

"We must fight quickly to avoid long nights and long dreams." Deng Yan also agreed with this.

Liang Yao saw Liang Sen staring directly at the geishas at the side, so he asked Liang Sen: "Liang Sen, you haven't gotten married yet, right?"

After Liang Sen came to his senses, he hurriedly shook his head and said, "I haven't gotten married yet."

"Of these geishas, ​​choose one of you who you like to go back to be your aunt. If I remember correctly, you are three years older than me. It's time to have a family." Liang Yao said to Liang Sen calmly.

Liang Sen thought this was Liang Yao's test for him, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "This is a gift from the shogunate to Da Longtou. I don't dare to think anything wrong!"

"Get up, I've always been clear about rewards and punishments. I remember all the contributions you made in Japan." Liang Yao said to Liang Sen, "After Japan was founded, although I can't guarantee you to be the United States Minister to Japan, I can do it for you." It’s still possible to get a consul position.”

After standing up, Liang Sen bowed deeply to Liang Yao, wishing he could put his head on the ground: "Big Dragon Head has the kindness to rebuild his subordinates, and it is my bounden duty to work loyally for Big Dragon Head!"

"Go." Liang Yao nodded with satisfaction and said.

Liang Sen happily picked a geisha and left with the geisha on his shoulders.

When Liang Yao passed by a geisha, the geisha suddenly said: "General, I have studied Sinology and am proficient in Chinese. I am not a walking corpse. I will let you sleep with me as the general tonight."

This geisha spoke Chinese very fluently. Liang Yao stopped in front of her and looked at the geisha curiously.

This geisha is taller than the other geishas. She wears three-tooth clogs that are more than ten centimeters thick. After deducting the height of the clogs, she is about 160 centimeters tall.

This height is already taller than most Japanese men of the same era.

Liang Yao stretched out his hand to lift the geisha's face and looked directly into those breathtaking eyes.

Before Liang Yao could speak, the geisha said, "My name is Aoki Ling?"

"Very good, go wash your face and change into clothes." Liang Yao said.

"Change clothes?" Aoki Ling didn't understand what he meant.

"I'll prepare clothes for you." Liang Yao immediately turned to Hu Jinchen and said, "Jinchen, ask General Perry for a clean naval officer uniform suitable for this geisha."

"yes!"

Although Hu Jinchen was very curious as to why Liang Yao wanted a naval officer's uniform, he adhered to the rule of asking what should be asked and not asking what should not be asked, so he ran to the navy station to ask for clothes.

Liang Yao's eyes lit up when Aoki Aya washed off the thick makeup on her face and put on the uniform of an American naval officer.

After putting on the navy uniform, this guy looked quite heroic. Liang Yao also instantly became interested and walked into the military tent with Aoki Ling in his arms.

When I woke up the next day, it was already three strokes higher.

When Liang Yao got dressed and walked out of the military tent, he happened to bump into Perry and Miller who were visiting.

When Perry and Miller saw Aoki Ling, who was wearing a navy uniform and disheveled hair, walking out behind Liang Yao, they both stared at Liang Yao with suspicious expressions.

"Colonel Liang looks good. I think he must have slept very comfortably last night." Perry said sarcastically to Liang Yao.

"Sleeping on land is definitely more comfortable than sleeping on a warship. Did the shogunate troops stationed around our camp do anything unusual?" Liang Yao stretched and asked.

"There is nothing unusual about the Japanese shogunate's army, but your hobby is quite unusual." Miller also said sarcastically to Liang Yao.

"General Perry is going to Edo to visit Tokugawa Ieki?"

Liang Yao glanced at the carriage presents behind Perry and asked.

"I want to meet the supreme ruler of Japan in person and have a direct conversation with him. I want to ask you to borrow a translator. You know, I don't have a Japanese translator around me." Perry said, "I am not here during this period. Miller will take command of the Navy on my behalf."

With that said, Perry ordered Miller: "Miller! During my absence, Colonel Liang will be the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Expeditionary Force. You must obey Colonel Liang's orders!"

"Yes, General!"

Miller stood at attention, saluted Perry with a military salute, and replied forcefully.

"Liang Sen, I can lend it to you, but since the shogunate authorities are not sincere at the negotiation table, I'm afraid you will come back without success." Liang Yao said with his hands behind his back.

He was not optimistic about Perry's trip.

"I don't know Japan as well as you do, but having more contact with senior officials of the shogunate will also help me understand the Japanese shogunate. I also want to hand-deliver the credential of President Fillmore to the shogunate," Perry said. .

Seeing that Perry had decided to leave, Liang Yao did not stop Perry.

As long as Perry doesn't drag him along.

Not long after Perry left, Hu Jinchen came to report to Liang Yao: "Sir, there is a Japanese warrior who wants to see you."

"Japanese samurai? Are they official members of the shogunate?" Liang Yao asked.

"He is not an official from the shogunate. He is kneeling at the gate of our camp and asked me to forward his handwriting to you."

As he said this, Hu Jinchen handed over the handwritten letter from the Japanese warrior.

Liang Yao opened the handwriting. It was a "Book of Tou Yi" written entirely in Chinese characters. The font looked very comfortable, and Liang Yao had no difficulty in reading it.

Being able to write entire articles in Chinese characters, the person who wrote this "Book of Tou Yi" presumably also had a very profound foundation in Sinology.

Wait until you see the name on the signature: Yoshida Shoin. Liang Yao was not surprised, it turned out to be this kid.
