LNMTL needs user funding to survive Read More

Palace of Versailles, one group of allies flinched certainly, the Japanese government persists in fulfilling the agreement, Napoleon IV went bad with emotion, for the first time upgraded the diplomatic relations with Japan. 凡尔赛宫,一帮准盟友都退缩了,日本政府还是坚持履行约定,拿破仑四世感动坏了,破天荒的提升了同日本的外交关系。 The reward in fact is must have similarly, the French government needs to set an example now, making everyone know that cooperates with them is good, with the aim of attracting more collaborators, reverses political passive. 实质上的奖励同样是少不了的,法国政府现在需要树立一个榜样,让大家知道和他们合作是有好处的,以便吸引更多的合作者,扭转政治上的被动。 Because of the reason of war, France now is not wealthy, camel but who sou dies is big, even pulls out root hair to the Japanese government, is a large income. 因为战争的缘故,法兰西现在不富裕,但是廋死的骆驼比马大,就算是拔一根毛对日本政府来说,都是一笔丰厚的收益。 In this world besides wealth, a thing that called the technology. Even in this technological embargo not strict age, the Asian country wants the import of advanced technology to be beset with difficulties similarly. 况且,这个世界上除了钱财之外,还有一种叫技术的东西。即便是在这个技术封锁不严格的年代,亚洲国家想要引进先进技术同样是困难重重。 In exchange difficult not to mention, even if some people sell the technology, you must distinguish the truth the ability, and also takes a wallet of drum drum. 交流上困难且不说,就算是有人卖技术,你也要识别真伪的能力,并且还要一个鼓鼓的钱包。 Opens the industrial history of Meiji Restoration, will discover that this similarly is also a Japanese government pattern by the pit history. Many technical equipment of introduction, will face unaccustomed to the climate to Japan. 翻开明治维新的工业发展史,就会发现这同样也是一部日本政府花样被坑史。引进的很多技术设备,到了日本都会面临水土不服。 Perhaps was the earlier period suffers a loss to be swindled a lot, had relying on one's own effort to revive and making vigorous efforts to catch up of later generation Japanese, levelled disparity of both sides. 或许是前期吃亏上当得多了,才有了后世日本人的自力更生、奋起直追,抹平了双方的差距。 Makes the contacts with the European big powers rarely, the Japanese naturally cannot let go this good opportunity. Has not known Japanese minister in Paris Ichio Honden who domestic plan, at this moment high-spirited and French exchanges notes. 难得和欧洲列强搭上了线,日本人自然不会放弃这个好机会。还不知道国内计划的日本驻巴黎公使本田一郎,此刻正意气风发的和法国人进行换约。 The title page impressively is «France's to day Technical assistance Treaty», in the treaty contains various civil and military technical over a thousand, almost in the world the technology of rotten avenue contains. 封面赫然是《法兰西对日技术援助条约》,条约上包含各类民用、军用技术上千项,几乎世面上烂大街的技术都包含在内。 Theoretically, Japanese, so long as said that and digests these technologies, they can be promoted to the third-class industrialized country, the industrialization at least can reduce for ten years. 理论上来说,日本人只要引进、并且消化掉这些技术,他们就可以向三流工业国晋级了,工业化进程至少可以缩短十年。 As for a more advanced technology, is not the country that their industrialization have not completed, has the qualifications to peep. The basic industries do not attain a designated standard, even if many advanced technologies take, does not have the means use. 至于更先进的技术,还不是他们这个工业化都没有完成的国家,有资格窥视的。基础工业不达标,很多先进技术就算是拿到手,也没有办法利用。 What a pity the reality is brutal, this looks to the Japanese important treaty, did not have the means to fulfill mostly. 可惜现实是残酷的,这份看上去对日本至关重要的条约,多半是没有办法履行了。 The French are not the philanthropists, the so-called technical assistance establishes in the Japanese government declares war after Austria. Makes concrete to many, must look at the Japanese army's performance in battlefield. 法国人又不是慈善家,所谓的技术援助是建立在日本政府对宣战之后。具体给多少,还是要看日本军队在战场上的表现。 ...... …… The dark blue is blue, the day is boundless, the red glowing sun only reveals the profile, wiped sunset glow, resembles the colorful veil, the sea water was also being dyed the golden yellow. 海蓝蓝,天茫茫,红日只露半边脸,抹了一片晚霞,似五彩斑斓的面纱,连带着海水也被染成了金黄色。 The weather is gradually gloomy, as the bellow of ships resounds, the quiet wharf, had made noise again. 天色渐渐暗淡下来,随着船舶的轰鸣声响起,原本已经沉寂的码头,再次喧嚣了起来。 One group of labors in rags, stand at this moment in abundance, looked into the distance, in the look was being full of the hope. 一群衣衫褴褛的劳工,此刻纷纷站立起来,眺望着远方,眼神中充满了期盼。 In wharf lives well is not dry, laborious did not say, is unstable. Even if lively Luzon, cannot guarantee that every day has the manual labor. 码头上的活不好干,辛苦不说,还不稳定。即便是是繁华的吕宋岛,也不能保证每天都有活计。 Busy time, a day possibly has over a hundred merchants to relay here, has living that cannot do. Idle time, possibly ten days are not open for business for half a month. 忙的时候,一天可能有上百艘商船在这里中转,有干不完的活。闲的时候,可能十天半个月都不开张。 Because of the reason of war, the trade line of Southeast Asia area also bleak. The merchant ship of travelling around peddling, does not dare easily to go to sea. 因为战争的缘故,南洋地区的贸易线也萧条了起来。跑单帮的商船,已经不敢轻易出海了。 law Austria both countries played the pirate tactic in Southeast Asia, now has developed to kill wrong, the situation without let off. 两国在南洋玩起了海盗战术,现在已经发展到了有杀错,没放过的地步。 Ran into the true pirate, at the worst seizes property, the probability of returning alive is not low ; Ran into this false pirate, usually was finished with the ship together. 遇到了真正的海盗,大不了就是劫财,生还的几率还是不低;遇到了这种伪海盗,通常都是连人带船一起完蛋。 In dying in situation of no verifying, facing two big hooligans, no one has the means that can only make the pirate be a scapegoat. 在死无对证的情况下,面对两个大流氓,谁也没有办法,只能让海盗背锅。 Now can the Southeast Asia area make the trade, is the big fleet acts together, usually must invite some Neutral country Navy to send the warship to escort, can pass safely. 现在能够南洋地区做贸易的,都是大船队一起行动,通常还要邀请某个中立国海军派军舰护航,才能够安全通过。 Under this situation, in those days in lively Luzon also bleak, the passing ships were short, the worker day in wharf naturally does not feel better. 在这种背景下,往日里繁华的吕宋岛也萧条了起来,过往的船舶少了,码头上的工人日子自然不好过。 From the attire, roughly can judge that in these workers the hybrid most, the Chinese next, Japanese is next again, as well as few Caucasians. 从衣着上来看,大致可以判断出这些工人中混血最多、华裔其次、日裔再次之,以及少量的白人。 This also suited the situation in Luzon, the Spanish ruled here for several hundred years, the civilization still only transmitted in the city, the local area indigenous was in the tribe time mostly. 这也符合吕宋岛的情况,西班牙人在这里统治了几百年,文明仍然只在城市中传递,本地土著大都处于部落时代。 Since is the tribe, that does not need to count on that they came out to find a job to do. The wild plant and fruit, suffice everyone to fill the belly in any case, does not absolutely need to try hard. 既然是部落,那就不用指望他们出来找活干了。反正野生的植物、水果,都够大家填饱肚子,根本就没必要努力。 Any place has the circle, the small wharf is no exception. Similarly in the lower class, was divided equally heterogeneous, looked that the attire knew. 任何地方都有圈子,小小的码头也不例外。同样在社会底层,一样被分成了三六九等,看衣着就知道了。 Here is the domain in Spain, the Caucasian position naturally is highest. Similarly seeks a livelihood in the wharf, is actually in the management mostly, does few of coolie. 这里是西班牙的地盘,白人地位自然是最高。同样在码头上讨生活,却大都处于管理层,干苦力的寥寥无几。 The remaining position are similar, many time everyone can exactly the friend, exactly few times is the competitor. For the livelihood, each group clashes in secret a lot. 剩下的地位都差不多,活多的时候大家可以朋友,活少的时候就是竞争对手。为了生计,各个团体私底下没有少发生冲突。 The liveliness of Luzon establishes above the harbor, the Spanish attentive development local economy, the job naturally are not many. 吕宋岛的繁华是建立在港口之上的,西班牙人并没有用心发展当地的经济,工作岗位自然不多。 Compared to enter the mine and plantation, in the wharf seeks a livelihood, although is unstable, the income actually wants on high some. 相比进入矿山和种植园来说,在码头上讨生活尽管不稳定,收入却是要高上一些。 Can stand here, is the victor in struggle. Therefore they not only need support itself, but must raise the back gang big shot. 能够站在这里的,都是斗争中的胜利者。所以他们不仅要养活自己,还要养着背后的帮会大佬。 From is getting more and more near, faintly visible hull. A middle-aged man sighs: Do not look, this is Japanese warship not our living.” 距离越来越近,隐约可见船身。一名中年男子叹了一口气:“别看了,这是日本军舰没我们的活。” In the wharf seeks a livelihood, most important is the vision. What business needs to snatch, what business can meet, must make the accurate judgment. 码头上讨生活,最重要的就是眼光。什么生意需要抢,什么生意可以接,都要做出准确判断。 For example now, what come is the Japanese warship, basically no business. Even if anchors the supplies, that will still use first Japanese labor. 比如说现在,来的是日本军舰,基本上没啥业务。就算是停靠补给,那也会使用优先日裔劳工。 The merchant ship is also suitable, this year goes to sea to seek a livelihood, the Asians are the minority groups, must stick together to survive. The patriarchal clan, fellow villager and gang cannot be few. 商船同样适用,这年头出海讨生活,亚洲人都是弱势群体,必须要抱团才能生存。宗族、同乡、帮会一个都不能少。 The young men of being eager to try returned in same place, helpless reply: „ Knew Uncle Liu. This month we have not received several single business, but must hand over the interest in the gang. 跃跃欲试的青年男子退回了原地,无奈的回答道:“知道了刘叔。这个月我们都没接到几单生意,还要向帮会交利钱。 Also does not know that such day, when is a head. Gets down again, we must have nothing to eat. ” 也不知道这样的日子,什么时候是个头。再这么下去,我们就要去喝西北风了。” People 3322 sitting on the ground, some people put out the opium to pull out, the turnover the smog is lulling the nerve, escaped the reality by this worried. 众人三三两两的坐在地上,有人拿出了大烟抽了起来,吞吐着烟雾麻痹着自己神经,以此来逃避现实的忧愁。 Sees this, a middle-aged man brow wrinkle, impatient saying: Deng Mazi, receives your opium. When also pulls out this contraption, money is not saving a flower, looked that behind you eat anything.” 看到这一幕,中年男子眉头一皱,不耐烦的说道:“邓麻子,把你的大烟收起来。都什么时候还抽这玩意儿,钱不省着点儿花,看你后面吃什么。” Then, the middle-aged man trampled. Nowadays the stevedore mostly is a bachelor, a person eats to the full entire family is not hungry, work painstakingly and tired, attracting the opium is very universal. 说完,中年男子一脚踹了过去。这年头码头工人大都是单身汉,一人吃饱全家不饿,工作又苦又累,吸大烟是很普遍的。 Although Spain is also the signatory state of international smoking ban regulations, what that are more is only under the public opinion pressure, or benefits a face to Austria, has not carried out truly. 虽然西班牙也是国际禁烟条例的缔约国,但那更多的只是迫于舆论压力,或者说是给地利一个面子,并没有真正落实下去。 Now in the true sense completes the opium suppression movement, only then several European countries, conduct the opium suppression movement in the colony also benefits on Austria. 现在真正意义上完成禁烟运动的,也就只有几个欧洲国家,在殖民地搞禁烟运动的也就一个地利。 The Vienna government pursues the responsibility bill infinitely, no matter the time place, catches the drug offender to pull out the target practice, making the opium peddlers in the world look to be afraid to step forward, contained the opium to be in flood. 维也纳政府的无限追责法案,甭管时间地点,抓到毒犯就拉出去打靶,让全世界的鸦片贩子都望而怯步,才遏制住了鸦片泛滥。 Right, contained the narcotics to be in flood merely. The drug trafficking secretly remains, fierce that extremely but the government attacks, benefits the narcotics to become the entire world highest-risk occupation in Austria. 没错,仅仅只是遏制住了毒品泛滥。暗地里的毒品交易仍然存在,只不过政府打击的太过厉害,在地利贩毒成为了全世界最高危的职业。 The middle-aged man is also one, but there are after wife and children, must keep a family, suppresses was swearing off the addiction for tobacco. 原本中年男子也是其中的一员,只不过有了家小过后,要养家糊口,强忍着戒掉了烟瘾。 The will of because stopping smoking, works in addition maturely steady, a middle-aged man's in same clan by gang settled on, becomes the group leader in wharf. 因为戒烟的毅力,加上做事成熟稳重,中年男子被帮会中的一位同族看中,才成为了码头上的小头目。 In some sense, the middle-aged man is also the beneficiary who Austria benefits the opium suppression movement. 某种意义上来说,中年男子也是地利禁烟运动的受益者。 Saves to establish to start from Lanfang, becomes the center that the Southeast Asia Chinese gathers. After all the place of this year security were too few, every other previous some time, colonizes will be raising the anti-China movement harvesting wealth. 从兰芳省建立开始,就成为了南洋华人聚集的中心。毕竟这年头安全的地方太少了,每隔上一段时间,殖民着们就会掀起反华运动收割财富。 Lanfang saves to the banner that the exterior crest Austria is benefitting, does not need to be worried that the foreign enemy threatens ; Internally is the province that implements autonomous, by influence that Austria benefits, but also played the rule of law. 兰芳省对外顶着地利的旗号,不用担心外敌威胁;对内又是实行的行省自治,受地利的影响,还玩起了法治。 No matter how the law, at least has the game rule, the security did not need to be worried. 甭管法律怎么样,至少是有游戏规则的,安全性是不用担心了。 Has a safe investment environment, lacks the Chinese capital of security sense is to naturally swarm to enter, directly drives the economic development that Lanfang saved. 拥有一个安全的投资环境,缺乏安全感的华人资本自然是蜂拥而入,直接带动了兰芳省的经济发展。 Develops now, the Chinese respected family in Southeast Asia area, basically moved to Borneo the den. 发展到现在,南洋地区的华人大家族,基本上都将老巢搬到了婆罗洲。 Although is an autonomous province, but the Chinese has the natural awe to the imperial authority. Emperor ordered to ban smoking, the autonomous government did not have the courage to say no. 虽然是自治省,但是华人对皇权有天然的敬畏。皇帝下令禁烟了,自治政府也没胆子说不。 In addition promotion of man of insight, as well as Austria benefits the attack of navy's to transporting smoke ship, limited the opium input, good that the opium suppression movement that Lanfang saves also completes. 加上有识之士的推动,以及地利海军对运烟船的打击,限制了鸦片输入,兰芳省的禁烟运动也完成的不错。 Sells the opium by the bullet, attracts the opium to be forced to feed in the place to give up drug taking. No matter anything the status, stopped smoking passively, these naturally must have the gang chieftain. 卖鸦片的挨枪子,吸鸦片被强制送进戒毒所。不管什么身份不身份,都被动戒烟了,这其中自然也少不了帮会头目。 After all Southeast Asia biggest gang Hongmen Secret Society, is several respected families controls in fact. The upper layer stopped smoking, below gang members naturally also came under the influence. 毕竟南洋最大的帮会洪门,实质上就是几个大家族控制的。上层都戒烟了,下面帮会成员自然也受到了影响。 The opium suppression movement also is not only only banning smoking, similarly also follows massive propagandas. By the present, everyone had been used to despise to attract the opium, dislikes taking drugs to be the same like later generation everyone. 况且,禁烟运动也不仅仅只是禁烟,同样还伴随着大量的宣传。到了现在,大家已经习惯了鄙视吸大烟,就如同后世大家反感吸毒一样。 The good words are difficult to urge this/should devil, saw own words to be regarded the neglected advice, a middle-aged man brow wrinkle, has turned around to go and come directly the less seen the better. 好言难劝该死鬼,见自己的话被当成了耳边风,中年男子眉头一皱,直接转过身去来了个眼不见为净。 Do not study him, he gets down, sooner or later wants the horizontal corpse street. As for the interest issue, I can communicate with the gang, everyone is the fellow villager, the gang will not make you starve to death.” “你们不要学他,他这么下去,迟早要横尸街头。至于利钱的问题,我会和帮会沟通,大家都是同乡,帮会也不会让你们饿死的。” Hongmen Secret Society of this year is not only only a pure gang organization, similarly is also the agglomeration of Township Party, regional Hongmen Secret Society do not have the compulsory restraint strength mostly, but is going against a common sign. 这年头的洪门不仅仅只是一个单纯的帮会组织,同样也是乡党的聚集地,各地的洪门相互之间大都没有强制约束力,只是顶着一个共同的牌子。 This gives his different attribute, while charging protection money, is taking on the responsibility of social welfare, for example helped just come the Southeast Asia compatriot to settle down and look for the work wait/etc. 这又赋予他不同的属性,在收取保护费的同时,也承担着社会救助的职责,比如说帮刚来南洋的同胞落户、找工作等等。 ...... …… The warship is different from the merchant ship, wants to anchor must certainly negotiate ahead of time. Without a doubt, this Japanese fleet is an unexpected visitor. 军舰不同于商船,想要停靠肯定是要提前交涉的。毫无疑问,这支日本舰队就是不速之客。 The communication is also useless, although the pressed salted duck empire declines, has not paid attention to the Japanese, is impossible to agree that works as the stopover station taking advantage of the harbor to them. 沟通也没用,板鸭帝国虽然没落,也没有把日本人放在眼里,根本就不可能同意借港口给他们当中转站。 Even if UK , France act is not good, the situation of European battlefield is getting more and more obvious, without hit a person when he is down to the French enough shows due respect for the feelings, standing was possible on the side of France? 就算是英法出面都不行,欧陆战场的局势越来越明显,没有对法国人落井下石就够给面子了,站在法兰西一边怎么可能呢? Sees the negotiation not to have the result, the order that commodore Sukeyuki Itou coldly saying: „ Preparing the good gift gives to the Spanish, told them us to approach shore to purchase some commodities, how long will not delay, before the darkness, will leave, will not put to trouble to him. 见交涉迟迟没有结果,舰队司令官伊东祐亨冷冷的命令道:“把准备好的礼物送给西班牙人,告诉他们我们只是靠岸采买一些物资,不会耽搁多长时间,天黑前就会离开,不会给他添麻烦的。 The notice army is ready, once approaches shore acts instantly, hits enemy one to be caught off guard. ” 通知陆军做好准备,一旦靠岸就立即采取行动,打敌人一个措手不及。” Before the darkness leaves, that is not possible. This time point that Sukeyuki Itou chooses specially, so long as approaches shore, drags to drag the darkness. 天黑前离开,那是不可能的。伊东祐亨可是专门选的这个时间点,只要靠了岸,拖都要拖到天黑。 Spanishs the time in Luzon operating is not short, although the shore artillery on island is obsolete, the might still cannot be underestimated. If really the storm, the day military power necessity pays the serious price, 西班牙人在吕宋岛经营的时间已经不短了,岛上的岸炮虽然老旧,威力仍然不容小觑。真要是强攻,日军势必要付出惨重的代价, As for the Philippine fleet of Spain, one crowd of eliminated sail battleships, as well as two outdated armored vessels, Sukeyuki Itou has not paid attention. 至于西班牙的菲律宾舰队,一群被淘汰的风帆战舰,以及两艘老掉牙的铁甲舰,伊东祐亨还不放在眼里。 The family property of Japan is limited, this war must fight a battle to force a quick decision. Core of Philippines in Luzon, so long as took here, the remaining places were easy to do. 日本的家底有限,这场战争必须要速战速决。菲律宾的核心就在吕宋岛,只要拿下了这里,剩下的地方就好办了。 The richness can make the ghost turn a millstone, let alone is only the short docking supplies? 有钱能使鬼推磨,何况只是短暂的停靠补给呢? The Japanese government this time is hitting the name that encircles the pirate goes south, comes up to benefit outwardly to Austria, the Spanish has not realized the danger, even in the subconscious, they never thinks that the Japanese can bring the threat to them. 日本政府这次是打着围剿海盗的名义南下,明面上去冲着地利去的,西班牙人根本就没有意识到危险,甚至在潜意识里,他们从来就不认为日本人能够给他们带来威胁。 Although this Japanese fleet, the scale somewhat is big at present excessive, the considering Japanese who they take for granted does not dare to challenge Spain. Only can say that the peace day was too long, making them lose the crisis awareness. 尽管眼前这支日本舰队,规模大得有些过分,他们还是想当然的认为日本人不敢挑战西班牙。只能说和平的日子太久了,令他们丧失了危机意识。 In the island, 3322 Japanese vagabonds start to gather to the tavern. This is the first time that not, in the evening drinks one cup seems the custom of Japanese. 岛上,三三两两的日本浪人开始向酒馆汇聚。这已经不是第一次了,晚上喝一杯仿佛是日本人的习惯。 If the person with high aspirations pays attention, will discover that in these person of days for peace are different, hit the chicken blood to be the same probably, in the look filled murderous aura. 如果有心人留意的话,就会发现这些人和平日里有所不同,一个个都像是打了鸡血一样,眼神里充满了杀气。 ...... …… Our some people arrived here already over ten years, some people were just arrived last month. Everyone arrived here goal, only then, is helps the empire capture Southeast Asia, drives away the Caucasian invader. “我们有的人来到这里已经超过十年了,有的人是上个月刚刚抵达的。大家来到这里的目的只有一个,就是帮帝国夺取南洋,赶走白人侵略者。 Today the opportunity waits finally, our fleets outside, must launch the general attack in the evening. Our duties before the fight starts, first takes the governor's mansion and municipal building, disrupts the command system of enemy. 今天机会终于等来了,我们的舰队就在外面,晚上就要发起总攻。我们的任务是在战斗打响前,抢先拿下总督府、市政大楼,打乱敌人的指挥系统。 The time are not much, now starts to distribute the weapon...... ” 时间不多了,现在开始分发武器……”
