Chapter 642 What do you want?

The sea breeze blew, and the gorgeous formation curtain and the small flags behind the warriors were blown loudly. But this still couldn't save Masahiro Abe's brain, which was already overloaded at this time, and sweat was pouring from his forehead.

Masahiro Abe actually made a lot of preparations for this meeting. In order to make up for the lack of cannons, he specially ordered skilled craftsmen to make dozens of wooden cannons overnight and then painted them with iron paint to increase their momentum.

There are also those magnificent formations, all of which are high-end goods that the shogun is usually reluctant to use. The warriors deployed behind him and around him were also the best people he could use at this time.

In order to ensure that this negotiation can proceed smoothly, Masahiro Abe also found the best Dutch translator in Japan.

However, the Austrian side directly sent a miko with a Kansai accent to negotiate, which made him a little confused.

"Damn Osaka businessmen! There is nothing they dare not sell. Sooner or later, this country will fall into their hands!" Masahiro Abe cursed in his heart.

He imagined many possibilities for today's negotiations. It is very likely that the other party will use its strong position to put pressure on the shogunate and force a compromise from the very beginning. They may even sit across from him with a golden knife and make a plan that has been prepared. Throw the negotiation agreement on the ground and add another sentence.

"But there are only permissions and disallowances."

Of course, it is also possible to do what the Dutch usually do, be "courteous", state the interests and harms, and strive for the maximum benefit within a certain framework.

Or it may be a relatively equal agreement. Although it is said to be relatively equal, it only exists on paper. After all, Japan does not have industrial capabilities at this time.

Or maybe the Austrians were intimidated by the powerful military strength of the shogunate and took the initiative to make concessions, provide tribute to the shogunate, or even bribe him, a senior official of the shogunate.

The negotiator may be a red-haired ghost, a green-haired ghost, King Vajra, or a gorilla. After all, according to reports from officials who boarded the Austrian flagship:

"The people of the Austrian Kingdom have different hair styles, and their elders are like a forest. They often swallow clouds and spit out mist. They look like a tengu, a yaksha, a nio, or a sea boss. It is really weird.

The leader is extremely short and looks like a monster, so he is actually a slippery ghost. It is also very shameless and naked. What we saw and heard is comparable to a hundred ghosts walking at night.”

But what's going on with this miko with a Kansai accent in front of her? Although he is taller, he looks Japanese.

Abe Masahiro's thinking fell into chaos, and he really didn't know how to deal with the situation at hand.

At the same time, I felt humiliated because the other party actually sent a woman to negotiate, and judging from the attire, she was the lowest-level "Miko".

But before Masahiro Abe could speak, the retainer behind him had already drawn his sword.

After all, according to the saying that the master humiliates his minister to death, as a samurai of the Abe family, he cannot bear such humiliation.

And although the samurai was afraid of foreigners and gringos, he was not afraid of witches. He had never been afraid of such people in his life!

"Baga! How dare you be rude to Mr. Laozhong?"

"boom!"

Kagura shot decisively. Before the samurai could finish his words, a bullet shattered his visor. The bullet shattered his visor and then pierced his skull.

The latter died very simply, everything happened so fast that the people around him didn't have time to react, or even before Masahiro Abe could speak.

In fact, Franz also specially prepared a prop for Kagura to pretend to be a ghost. However, the white phosphorus bomb is uncontrollable and the environmental requirements are too high. If you are not careful, you may endanger yourself or others.

Of course, if it can be used, the effect will definitely be the best. The power of white phosphorus can completely burn through armor, and then burn through bones until it is reduced to ashes.

The deterrent effect is absolutely amazing, but if the ruse is exposed in the future, the rebound will also be amazing.

Closer to home, Masahiro Abe did not issue an order out of fear and consternation, and those sergeants who had not fought in a war for more than two hundred years and knew how to bully others all day long had no discipline at all.

Some backed away, some fell, some roared, and some even prepared to chop the "witch" in front of them with a knife.

"Bang! Bang!" There were two more gunshots, and two unlucky guys fell down. Both of them were shot in the face, and there was basically no possibility of survival.

"That's enough! Get back, everyone!" Masahiro Abe shouted, on the one hand because he was really angry at the stupidity of his men, and on the other hand because a row of black guns were already pointed at him.

So far, Masahiro Abe doesn't know the purpose of the other party's visit, but judging from the behavior of the other party, the Austrian Empire doesn't care about him at all - Masahiro Abe's life or death.

Although the warriors were shocked and angry, they were not the ones who died, and the black muzzles of the guns made them unable to think of fighting again.

Seeing this, Kagura put away her revolver and sat opposite Masahiro Abe.

"I am representing Austria at this time. Drawing your sword against me is tantamount to declaring war on the empire. I hope you can control your subordinates and stop taking actions that may undermine the future peace between the two countries."

Kagura's tone was very soft, with a deep smile on her face, but Masahiro Abe and the samurai behind him did not feel the warmth at all, and instead clenched their fists.

The eyes of those proud warriors almost burst out with fire. At this time, as long as Abe Masahiro gave an order, they were ready to charge.

However, as the chief veteran of the shogunate, Masahiro Abe would not waste his life on meaningless things, nor would he allow himself to be motivated, so he turned around and said.

"Everyone who drew the sword just now should commit seppuku. No one can act rashly without my order. Do you understand me?!"

"Yes!" (Hai).

"Are you satisfied? I am Masahiro Abe, the chief veteran of the shogunate, and I am here to negotiate with you on behalf of the 13th generation general Tokugawa Iedada."

"I serve Archduke Franz Joseph of the Habsburg family, and I am honored to serve as the Austrian representative for this negotiation. You can call me Kagura."

At this time, the translator in the middle was very embarrassed. He cleared his throat and said.

"I am the representative of the Dutch Chamber of Commerce in Japan, Yamada Takenosuke."

Abe Masahiro waved his hand, signaling for Takenosuke to step aside, because it seemed that there was no need for a translator at all. In fact, this so-called Chamber of Commerce representative is more appropriately called Kapitan.

"What do you want from this? You must know that our country, the Kingdom of Japan, has its own laws. What benefit does your so-called free trade bring to us? It will ultimately disrupt our laws, harm our country, and harm our people."

Although Masahiro Abe wanted to say this, judging from the conflict just now, unless Amaterasu himself used the solar rail gun to kill him, the shogunate was unlikely to win this war.

Returning to reality, Masahiro Abe asked: "What do you want from me this time?"

"I came here especially for the foundation of Japan's isolation."

Upon hearing this, Abe Masahiro's heart sank to the bottom. Sure enough, he came for the shogunate. I am afraid that this war with the Austrian Empire is inevitable.

"What do you want?"

"I will help you accomplish your karma for eternity."
