The cute president smiled and said, "It depends on how Yi Li sang this drama. Now, I am very interested in Japan. North Korea is already a province in China, but there are still royal forces and a group of large landlords who have not been eliminated. My goal is to make the entire North Korea all Han people! Using North Korea as a springboard to attack Japan. Japan is in a confrontation between the old shogunate forces and the emperor's forces. Do you know?"

Princess Katrina Kaif nodded, "I know, the president wants to use military force against Japan? It is difficult for us to protect Central Asia and Siberia now. Where can we still have money to fight at this time?"

The cute president held Princess Katrina Kaif's little hand and smiled and said, "I was inspired by you. I don't have to fight, but I can achieve results. Look at Yi Li, I didn't spend a penny. Didn't he start the unified process?"

Princess Katrina Kaif thought for a while and said, "What the president means, do you want the Koreans and Japanese people to attack the Japanese emperor's power?"

The cute president nodded and said, "Yes, the princess understands me. That's what I mean. We must never let the emperor of Japan unify Japan so quickly and embark on the path of prosperity and strength of reform. Remember that this small country is our biggest opponent in Asia!"

Princess Katrina Kaif was full of questions, "President, Japan has few people, and it is a small place in the Qing court. Why does the president value them so much?"

The cute president stood up and looked out the window with deep eyes, "Princess, although they are small and small, once Japan completes unification, the development will be terrible. In addition, it will almost never be hit by any blows. At that time, it will be like wild wolves and cause trouble again. China's coastal defense risks have a long history. To put it bluntly, it is caused by this island country."

Princess Katrina Kaif nodded. Although she was not sure why the president valued Japan so much, there must be a reason for the president to pay attention to it.

Before the signing of the Treaty of Shimonoseki in 1895, Japan's plenipotentiary representative Hiromori Ito and the Qing government's plenipotentiary minister Li Hongzhang had an evocative conversation. Ito: "Ten years ago, I gave an advice to the adults, hoping that your country would quickly reform its internal affairs, otherwise our country would definitely come from behind. Now, ten years have passed, why has your country changed at all?" Li Hongzhang sighed and said: "The affairs of our country are limited by customs and have not been able to get what they want."

However, is China's backward institutional reform just an explanation based on customs? China's Westernization Movement was earlier than Japan's Meiji Restoration, but the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 ended with the failure of the Qing Dynasty. What is the real reason? Japan rose due to the Meiji Restoration, and good fortune and misfortune depended on each other. The Meiji Restoration eventually brought Japan more endless suffering, and almost lost its country and its species after more than 70 years. So, can Japan's Meiji Restoration be considered a successful reform? What is the fatal problem in Japan since modern times?

In March 1882, Hirofumi Ito, then Secretary of Internal Affairs of Japan, boarded a passenger ship to Europe. People were surprised to find that there were actually several geishes among the entourage. What were they doing? Ito's trip was on a major mission: to open up the joints through geishas and find the constitutional path of Japan. After the Meiji Restoration in Japan, although a series of reforms were carried out, the unequal treaties signed in the past still existed. European and American powers refused to amend the unequal treaties on the grounds that Japanese laws were incomplete. In many places, a large-scale free and civil rights movement was launched, and the slogans were put forward to open a parliament and formulate a constitution.

Internal and external troubles made the Meiji government realize that it was necessary to formulate a constitution and establish a parliament, otherwise the government itself would likely be overthrown. In fact, 11 years before Ito's trip, Japan sent a delegation to Europe and the United States for more than a year, and it has realized that the gap between Japan and the great powers is not only science and technology, but also the gap between political systems. Therefore, from the Japanese people to the official, they are full of expectations for constitutionalism. Ito Hirofumi and his delegation are the main topic of being how to position the emperor's political status and establish a parliament. He stayed in Germany, Austria, Britain and other countries for more than a year. When inspecting the constitutionalism of various countries, he found that although Britain, France and the United States were the most prosperous, their constitutional system lacked an inherent connection with the traditional Japanese culture with nationalism as the core.

However, the Prussian culture, which used military power and maintained a strong monarchy in promoting national unification and development, was closer to Japan. A key historical figure made Ito have a strong impression of the Prussian constitutional monarchy. He was the national scholar Stein of the University of Vienna. Stein studied the structure of modern countries and was proficient in the constitutions of various countries. Ito spent more than a month listening to his lecture notes directly. Stein's influence on Ito was mainly reflected in three aspects: one is the grasp of the overall modern constitutional state; the second is the absorption of the new European society and national theories at that time; and the third is the clear concept of cultural and educational policies, that is, as a state organ, the university is an indispensable factor in constitutionalism.

In August 1883, after a year, Ito and his party completed the constitutional investigation in Europe and finally returned to Japan. What did Ito Hirofumi do after returning to Japan? After Ito returned to Japan, it immediately established a system transfer bureau in the palace and was personally responsible for it, starting the drafting of the constitution and the reform of various national organizational structures. In 1884, under the guidance of Ito, the Meiji government promulgated the "Chinese Order" to establish the aristocratic system and become the basis of the future aristocratic house; in December 1885, according to Ito's suggestion, the old Taizong system was abolished, the modern cabinet system was established, and the Prime Minister of the Cabinet was served as the Prime Minister, and the preparations for the implementation of constitutionalism were completed.

At the National College University in Shibuya, Tokyo, there are a large number of relevant materials on the Constitution of the Great Japanese Empire drafted by the Meiji era, with a total of more than 6,000 kinds. The one who left these materials is the author of the draft Constitution of the Great Japanese Empire. Inoue, who served in the Ministry of Justice, who is a bureaucrat in the law major, drafted the draft Constitution at Ito's order.

In 1887, the second year of Meiji, Hirofumi Ito completed the draft constitution together with Inoue Tsubasa on Kanagawa Prefecture, which was the "Sakashima Draft" discussed at that time. Since then, the "Sakashima Draft" has been revised several times and was basically finalized in April 1888. After many revisions, the Meiji government finally promulgated the constitution on February 11, 1889 and decided to start implementation in 189o. Since then, the Meiji constitutional system has been finally established. So, is the idea of ​​the constitution that Emperor Meiji demanded to be formulated by him?

Emperor Meiji has more symbolic significance than practical significance to this constitution. Ito Hirofumi Ito played a leading and guiding role from beginning to end in every stage of the Constitution from preparation, drafting to deliberation, promulgation and implementation, and ito Hirofumi Ito played a leading and guiding role from beginning to end, and was the "father of the Meiji Constitution".

The Meiji Constitution is the first modern constitution officially promulgated and functioning in Asia. It has three prominent characteristics: First, it clearly stipulates the supreme position of the emperor, integrating political, military, legal and diplomatic powers; second, it stipulates the separation of legislative, administrative and judicial powers; third, it stipulates that citizens have freedom of speech, publication, assembly, association, etc. within the scope permitted by law. After Japan's defeat and surrender in World War II, the "Japanese Constitution" was implemented, and the Meiji Constitution was finally abolished. The Meiji Restoration made Japan's rapid development in the short term, but it did not bring long-term benefits to Japan.

Due to the flaws of the Meiji Constitution itself, it stipulated that the emperor's command over the army was assisted and exercised by the military headquarters and was not subject to cabinet interference. This made the Japanese military headquarters and militarist forces unrestrained, and brought serious disasters to Asian countries, including Japan themselves in the future.

The history of Japan's Meiji Restoration was either preparing for war or engaging in wars. On November 29, 189o, the Meiji Constitution was implemented. Four years later, Japan launched the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. In another year, the Russo-Japanese War broke out; on September 18, 1931, Japan invaded China by force; on July 7, 1937, it invaded my country in an all-round way; on December 7, 1941, it attacked the US naval base Pearl Harbor, which led to the Pacific War, and was completely defeated in 1945.

Japan sought expansion everywhere and launched wars, but the country of one island unrealistic dreamed of controlling Asia, dominating the world, and becoming one of the causes of world wars. However, it eventually led to a crushing defeat and became the only country in the world that was bombed by atomic bombs, almost losing its species.

For Japan, which had just begun to move from feudal society to capitalism, the promulgation of the Meiji Constitution undoubtedly greatly stimulated Japan's exhibition, with significant results. It soon became the strongest country in Asia and the first country in Asia to smash the chain of Western control. It also quickly achieved the goal of catching up with Britain and the United States, which was obviously not in line with the objective laws of the exhibition of things.

The so-called success of the Meiji Restoration in Japan is a temporary and superficial success.

If we look at it from a longer historical stage, the Meiji Restoration in Japan is not only unsuccessful, but also extremely failed.

Judging from the performance and fate of Japan within a hundred years after the Meiji Restoration, the Meiji Restoration is suspected of being sterile in the later stages of sterilization. Just like taking stimulants, the properties of the medicine will eventually pass, and the sequelae cannot be cured.

From the perspective of national happiness, even if Japan is in the so-called success period, it does not bring real welfare to the Japanese people. In addition to bringing extremely illusory spiritual excitement to the Japanese people, it is actually more of sadness, pain and extremely difficult daily life.

The inspiration given to us by the Meiji Restoration in Japan: In order to further exhibition, ***** does not care about its own national history and culture. Even if it is regularly displayed, the price it will have to be paid in the future will be extremely heavy, and it is likely to be a road of no return.

Only when a moderate approach has a sequence and respecting the reform of the nation's history and culture will there be long-term and sustainable development.

Reforming "limited by customs" is not necessarily a bad thing. This is Li Hongzhang's wisdom, and it is also the wisdom of the ancestors of China.

Violating the law of objective development of things is an important reason for Japan's inevitable war and self-destruction.

The cute president also took the military expansion route, but the cute president would rather slow down, and would not lose control of the military expansion mentality, nor would he put the army outside the government and become the emperor's personal armed force!

That would be a terrible thing.

As a time traveler, the cute president knows better than anyone else that once Japan is unified, its development will be terrible. If Japan is not completely defeated, this is always a big worry for the cute president!

Therefore, even though the reunification has not been completed and the new three Siberian provinces and Central Asia are still unstable, the cute president has not relaxed his crackdown on the Japanese.

The cute president pointed at the map, pointed at North Korea and Japan, and then pointed at the locations of the New Three Siberian provinces and Central Asia provinces.

China is really too big. Being a boss is really tired and you have to worry about so many things.

Princess Katrina Kaif behind the cute president did not dare to speak out. She knew that the president was thinking about things, but the most important thing was that there was no money. In addition, the industrial exhibition level could not keep up with the needs of a long-term war. If these two things were solved, the president would not have to worry.

"It's so uncomfortable to have no money." The cute president looked at it for a long time and suddenly said something came out.

It caused Princess Katrina Kaif to chuckle.
