Styfly, who was suspicious, thought about it and invited MacDonald back to the British ship. On the surface, of course, he introduced it to him. He knew him. He was both British aristocrats. He was a kid two hundred years ago, but in fact he hoped to further understand the situation in the shogunate.

After all, MacDonald lived in Edo in Japan for more than a year, but his personal freedom was not restricted by the shogunate. He even taught dozens of students English and met many friends from the shogunate officials.

Can't guarantee that McDonald will know something!

The shogunate could not stop the British from invitation to MacDonald. Now Tokugawa's family is eager to send people away directly, and no foreigners come to Japan again.

McDonald didn't want to leave. He felt that he was very good in Japan. So many students respected him and studied from him. Everyone in the Shogunate was very friendly to him, or at least on the surface. He didn't spend any money on food, clothing, housing, etc. If he made a request, the Shogunate would even help him find a few cute people in Yoshihara.

If you want to say such a day, it is definitely a fairy day, and no normal person will be willing to leave. McDonald asked clearly that he was just going to attend a banquet on the British boat, and then he was willing to follow Sdyforley.

Before leaving, Sdyforli also took out a lot of Mexican Eagle Ocean and said that he would buy fresh food with the shogunate. If there were any fruits, it would be the best. Nowadays, he was floating on the sea and everyone knew the importance of eating fresh vegetables and fruits. If you don’t eat them, it would be dead. And now you are close to the land and have fresh meat, why should you eat bacon and biscuits?

Since you pay for the money and cash in cash, there is no problem. Tadaoemon ordered the two students to take the British logistics officer directly to the Uraga street to buy directly. If there is insufficient money, you can place an order. As long as you give enough money, you will have whatever you want, and there will be no problem to help you purchase it directly in Edo.

When he arrived on the British ship, Sdyferry explained what he saw on the land one by one, and focused on introducing the situation of the training team trained by Dutch mercenaries.

When he learned that there might be thousands of people in the training team, Shita Huali was a little unsure, so the father and son were entertaining MacDonald in the name of the banquet and preparing to learn more carefully.

"Are the Japanese soldiers I met in Uraga just now the new army trained by the Japanese Maharaja hired Dutch officers?" After the scene, the wine was over half a bottle, and finally got serious.

"Yes, I hired Dutch officers, not only to train new troops, but also to hire Dutch engineer Hadres to build a fort, right in Edo Bay."

"How is the situation of the fort?" Shitahuali is a major general of the army and is more concerned about matters related to the navy.

Moreover, the army that led the British Empire has a very vivid metaphor in this year. They just need to be projected by the Royal Navy like shells to anywhere that needs to be projected by the British. Cannon fodder is two levels lower than the navy.

"It's very complete. Just the Shinagawa Oten Mountain Fortress I saw is enough to resist your attack." MacDonald had never seen the turrets on the sea, but he saw the turrets on the land with his own eyes.

"Do you know the specific number of new troops?" Sdyforley was a major general of the army. He was the shells that were projected. Of course, he was more concerned about the situation of the shogunate's army.

"The specific number of the teaching team is not clear, the number is about 2,500 to 3,000. In addition, the shogunate also has a musket team (Oji Gun Team) that guards the palace. It was established earlier and may be more complete in training."

"So, Japan has at least a new army of 3,000 to 4,000 people..."

"How is the situation with the Japanese government and citizens?"

"That's naturally very afraid of the British Empire! However, the previous prime minister Tadaku Mizuno, who had strictly implemented reforms, had begun to rectify the army and strengthen military equipment. They also sent thirty international students, and now they may have arrived in London." MacDonald naturally realized the fear of the shogunate officials for him, the British nobleman, and also knew a lot of news from Japan.

"There are international students?" Shitahuali and Shidiferli looked at each other.

"Yes, and they are all children of the nobles of their country." They are all children of the Qiben Yu family, which is also right.

"Father, you should immediately send a message to China to take good care of this group of international students." Sdyforley certainly knew what his father had thought of.

If all this group of international students can be transformed into "spiritual British people", then Britain's influence in Japan will immediately surpass other countries. There is no need to make any choices. In the future, it is enough to directly support these British students as the minds of the colonial government.

"Should be so!"

Then Shita Huali asked about other situations in the shogunate in detail, trying his best to understand this opponent he was not familiar with. In the end, he came to a conclusion that although the shogunate was weak, he still had some strength. I am afraid that it would not be possible for him to easily break open the country's gate with three warships.

At this moment, in Uraga, Matsuhei Qiruya was discussing nervously with Tadaoemon, and the two knew very well. At present, Uraga only had the 21st-stage soldiers to fight and had enough combat power. The rest could only be considered a big deal, and the turret was completely a pile of garbage and had no effect at all.

As long as the British army launches an attack, Uraga will be finished in less than a minute!

What to do? What to do? What to do?

The British people also understood the attitude today. They were definitely not like James in the United States last time. They were on their way back to the Qing Dynasty and came to Japan. Those with dates but no dates would be three points first. The other people came here to make a fuss to break the country.

In the eyes of the British, it only takes 20,000 people to break the Qing Dynasty. If it breaks through Japan, two thousand people will be enough. Now there are a thousand people in the three ships, but it is not impossible to break through Japan's gates and force Japan to trade freely with the UK first.

Moreover, Japan is different from the Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty has a vast territory, and Japan is just so big. The lifeline of the entire country is on Edo Castle. To put it bluntly, as long as the British cannon hit Edo, a scattered waste in Edo Castle may not be able to surrender to the British, and there is no room for maneuver.

To put it inappropriately, the eggs of the Tokugawa shogunate are in danger and may be held in the hands of the English ghost beast at any time and then let them ask for it.

"I always have an idea in my mind. What if the British see Uraga ready to drive directly to Edo?" Matsuhei Qisun didn't know what he was thinking about.

"There are five forts in Edo, which are as solid as a god. Taro Zuemon defends day and night, and it is impossible for something to happen!" Tadao Eemon could only think like this.
