1850 American Gold Tycoon.

Chapter 277 Very Hungry

Elvis took the lead and led the soldiers of the Arizona Infantry Regiment to land on the Outer Eye Fort, and quickly formed an formation to approach the Outer Eye Fort.

Although the soldiers of the Arizona Infantry Regiment had just been recruited by Liang Yao, these soldiers were veterans who had experienced many battles. Facing the tragic situation of the Saga clan warriors on the outer fort, they did not feel any psychological discomfort. Advance slowly.

What made Elvis feel different was that the two hundred remnants on the outer fort actually launched a suicidal charge towards them.

"These reckless Japanese monkeys are looking for death!"

Elvis frowned and gave the order.

"Fire freely in place, leaving no one behind!"

The leading sergeant rushed towards the Arizona Infantry Regiment carrying the flag of the Saga Domain, followed by a group of samurai like moths to a flame.

The soldiers of the Arizona Infantry raised their Dreiser needles and fired at the crazy Japanese monkeys and pulled the trigger.

Medieval soldiers with knives, guns and primitive firearms are the opponents of the modern army. The dense bullets ruthlessly harvested the lives of these Japanese samurai, smashing the flag of the Hizen Saga clan to pieces.

Soon, the soldiers of the Arizona Infantry easily wiped out the remaining soldiers on the Outer Eye Fort and captured the Outer Eye Fort. Elvis cut off the Saga Domain flag on the Outer Eye Fort and replaced it with the regiment of the Arizona Infantry. Flag and the Stars and Stripes of the United States.

The soldiers of the Arizona Infantry who captured the Outer Eye Fort let out a tsunami of cheers.

"The Arizona Infantry Regiment undertook the task of capturing the Outer Eye Fort, and the capture of Nagasaki will be handed over to our California Infantry Regiment," Deng Yan said.

"Maybe the California Infantry doesn't have this chance." Liang Yao said, staring at the outer fort.

"No chance?" Deng Yan was puzzled.

"The Japanese always eat hard but not soft, and Naomasa Nabeshima is not a fool. With the lessons learned from the Outer Eye Fort, he will definitely not fight us again. He will be able to give the Tokugawa Shogunate an explanation for the battle in the Outer Eye Fort. "Liang Yao said to the crowd with his hands behind his back.

"It's getting late, everyone have a good rest, we will enter Nagasaki tomorrow."

At the same time, Nagasaki City was shrouded in panic, which spread rapidly with the fall of the Outer Eye Fort.

"Patriarch, the Americans have completely captured the Outer Eye Fortress, and none of the warriors on the Outer Eye Fortress survived!" Oki Qiaoren reported the news of the Outer Eye Fortress to Nabeshima Naomasa in despair.

"How is it possible? In just one day, the Outer Eye Fort fell?!"

Nagasaki's chief executive Osawa Yasutsu did not believe that the Outer Eye Fortress would fall in just one day.

Naomasa Nabeshima also had a painful expression on his face, and immediately took a deep breath and said to Oki Qiaoren.

"Send an envoy to Edo to inform the general of the news, and now you will follow me to the Lan Guan and Tang Guan."

"Yes! Patriarch."

In the early morning of the next day, just as Liang Yao expected, Naomasa Nabeshima took the initiative to visit, and Naomasa Nabeshima was followed by several Dutch and Han Chinese who acted as translators and assisted in mediation.

Liang Yao and Perry met with Nabeshima Naomasa on the Roland.

"Japan and the United States have never had any enmity, so why did they meet each other with swords and soldiers?" Nabeshima Naomasa said.

It's not that Liang Yao doesn't know Japanese at all. He only knows a few words such as Yabudie, Si Guoyi, and Yiku. Let him use Japanese to communicate with Naomasa Nabeshima in a serious way, which is obviously beyond him. scope of capabilities.

The Dutchman brought by Nabeshima Naomasa was not very good at English at first, but he was more proficient in French, so he translated Nabeshima Naomasa's words into French.

Fortunately, Liang Sen was proficient in English, Chinese and Japanese, and acted as a translator.

"No hatred at all?" Liang Yao sneered, "When you abused the crew of my American whaling ship, ignored our country's note, and handed over the feet of the American whaling ship's crew to the Dutch, did you ever think about today?! "

"We can make compensation." Nabeshima said through gritted teeth.

Having been a feudal lord for so many years, Naomasa Nabeshima, who is proficient in Sinology, naturally understands the reason why he wants to impose a crime.The abuse of the crew is just an excuse for the other party.

It's just that his own strength is not good right now. Facing a strong enemy, Naomasa Naomasa can only choose to give in, hoping to pay some money and let it go.

Teacher Liang Yao went on an expedition and traveled thousands of miles to Japan, not just to claim compensation.

"Reparations are necessary, but reparations are not a long-term solution. Only a treaty can maintain a long-term peaceful and friendly relationship between the United States and your vassal."

As he spoke, Liang Yao asked Hu Jinchen to hand over the treaty to Nabeshima Naomasa. This treaty tailored for Nagasaki was written in English and Japanese.

Naoshima took over the contract and read the contents of the contract.

First, the Hizen clan paid [-] taels of silver for the Army and Navy of the United States, totaling [-] million taels.

Second, the Nagasaki Outer Eye Fort was taken over by the United States.

Third, set aside a concession in Nagasaki for the United States to set up the American Pavilion. The lease is about 100 years. The concession is equivalent to the territory of the United States. The laws of the United States are enforced in the concession, and the shogunate and Nagasaki authorities cannot intervene.

Fourth, the United States enjoys the same trade rights as the Qing and the Netherlands in Nagasaki.

Fifth, American businessmen are free to open factories in Nagasaki.

Sixth, American citizens enjoy extraterritorial rights in Nagasaki and Hizen domains, and Japanese laws have no right to restrict American citizens.

The content of the treaty made Naomasa Nabeshima's veins pop.

Nabeshima had a deep understanding of the treaties signed between the Qing Dynasty and Western countries, and he knew in his heart what it would mean for Nagasaki and even Hizen once these treaties were signed.

Each of these six treaties exceeded his psychological expectations, and none of them was acceptable to him.

Even the barely acceptable compensation, the amount of compensation has greatly exceeded Nabeshima Naomasa's psychological expectations.

"These treaties are too harsh, I can't accept them! Why are you pushing too hard!" Naomasa Nabeshima refused to sign this harsh treaty.

Seeing this, Perry whispered to Liang Yao, "The treaty can be amended appropriately to facilitate the signing of the treaty."

Perry decided to accept it as soon as he saw it. His goal was to sign a founding treaty with the Tokugawa shogunate in Edo. He could accept as many benefits as he could get in Nagasaki.

Liang Yao's attitude was different from Perry's. He said very forcefully to Nabeshima Naomasa: "It's up to you to accept it or not! When the American army occupies Nagasaki, what I want to sign with your Excellency is not this treaty, you guys. There is no bargaining chip with me now!"

The sea breeze was blowing Naoshima's straight and thin face, and his hair became a little messy under the sea breeze.

Naoshima stood helplessly on the spot, and said to Liang Yao after being dazed for a while.

"Trouble is serious, and I am not the only one who can make decisions about Nagasaki's affairs. I need to go back and discuss with Nagasaki before I can give you an answer."

"I am also an unreasonable person. I will give you six hours to discuss and consider. It is six o'clock in the morning. If I don't receive a clear reply from you at noon, I will lead my troops into Nagasaki. , discuss the treaty with Your Excellency in Nagasaki." Liang Yao took out his pocket watch and looked at the time.

"Six hours?" Naoshima Naomasa said with a choked voice, "Nagasaki is already the fish on your sword, why are you so impatient? Why are you so aggressive?!"

"Very hungry." After speaking, Liang Yao ignored Naoshima Naomasa, turned his head and said to Hu Jinchen, "Jinchen, see off the guests."
