Chapter 740 This time, that time
“Currently, the Locust and the high-level officials of the empire still have not established contact with us, and the newspaper office and radio station have also been retaken by the plutocrat lackeys.
It seems that His Majesty was deceived by treacherous ministers and was unable to express his opinions. If we want to realize the Showa Restoration, we must find another way. "
Beside the fireplace, Teruzo Ando, as the temporary leader, introduced the situation to others, including Motoaki Nakabashi who had escaped from the palace.
The Guards Division's reaction was too fast, and this person could only abandon his soldiers, causing the mutiny team to fail in their action against the Locusts.
Hearing Ando’s words, he said viciously: “Since the Locust cannot perform its duties, why don’t we replace it with another Locust?
For example, Prince Yongren, who has served in the Eighth Army Division for a long time, is very sympathetic to our plight, and is also the best candidate for the New Sky Locust.
At that time, His Highness will ascend to the top and give a shout, and the ringers will definitely gather. Our Huangdao faction will be able to control more armed forces and completely wipe out the national traitors. "
“Yo Xi, Mr. Zhongqiao is right.”
Zuo Zhong, who had been promoted to the military advisor of the mutiny team, interrupted at the right time, and then turned to look at the Japanese officers with different expressions.
“There is an old Chinese saying that the king regards his ministers as dirt, and the ministers regard you as their enemy. Now it seems that you and I are not important in the eyes of the locusts.
Otherwise, even if you cannot publicly agree, as a locust, it will not be a problem for Your Majesty to communicate with us. Am I right? "
Silence,
Deathly silence.
If Ando Teruzo’s words were meant to explain to Tian Locust, then Zuo Zhong’s words completely tore off the fig leaf on Tian Locust’s body.
The other party did not want to communicate with them. This is not the era of the shogunate. No one dares to restrict the personal freedom of the Locust in an upright manner.
So the situation is very clear. The Locust doesn't care at all about respecting the emperor and asking for rape. The mutiny team is just a hot face meeting a cold butt.
The problem is that the matter of establishing a new king is too sensitive. Even if they had plans before, no one dared to speak first.
Motoaki Nakahashi, who hated the locusts in his heart, saw that everyone was silent, so he stood up again because he was different from others.
As an officer of the Guards Division, loyalty is the most basic requirement. If Locust does not change, he will die regardless of the outcome of the mutiny.
“You gentlemen, you must never be as kind as a woman.”
Nakahashi Motoaki kept waving his right hand to emphasize his tone as he spoke: "You have heard Okamoto-kun's meaning, don't take any chances anymore.
I suggest informing His Highness Yongren and asking him to come to Tokyo immediately to take charge of the overall situation. It is the royal family that we respect, not a certain person.
Your Highness has served as the captain of the Eighth Division for several years and is deeply trusted by the grassroots. It will not be a problem to mobilize another thousand people to participate in the mutiny. "
this
Xiang Tian Qingzhen and others did not dare to make a decision, so they all turned their attention to Ando Teruzo. The other party was now the leader and they had to listen to his opinion.
However, during the discussion at the hotel, the other party had said that he wanted to protect the locusts, so he probably would not agree to Nakabashi Motoaki's proposal.
If this is the case, it may not be easy to convince Itan, but the next second, they were stunned by the words of the loyal minister Ando Teruzo.
“Xingxi, what Mr. Zhongqiao said is not unreasonable. As long as the royal family can be unified for all generations, it doesn’t matter who is the Locust.”
Teru Ando sold the Locust without any hesitation, as if he had not said that he must not harm the Locust a few days ago.
Xiang Tian Qingzhen reacted, pointed at this shameless guy and trembled with anger, Baga, that’s not what you said at the time.
If you had said this earlier, the soldiers from the 6th and 7th squadrons might have been able to break into the palace directly. Why did they do this?
Other Japs who participated in the mutiny were also filled with anger, and their positions changed at the drop of a hat. Can everyone still live in harmony with each other?
“Cough, cough”
Upon seeing this, Zuo Shige coughed twice to attract everyone's attention, lest the lame Teruzo Ando, who had finally deceived him, would be beaten to death by them.
Although this guy's approach is indeed a bit unethical, the next plan requires the cooperation of the other party, so he can't just ignore it.
After calming down the angry Japs, he explained with a smile: "Haha, don't get angry, after all, the situation is one moment and another.
No one thought that His Majesty Tian Locust would support the traitors of the ruling faction, bow to the plutocrats, and disregard the lives and deaths of countless citizens.
In this case, our support of the new king is in line with the interests of the empire and in line with the people's wishes. We are by no means traitors to the empire. "
“It’s the extreme.”
“There is some truth to this.”
elsewhere
The officers nodded deceptively. Just like Mr. Okamoto said, it was not that they were unpatriotic, but that the Locust betrayed the country first.
For the future of the Japanese Empire and the Yamato nation, they are willing to bear the eternal infamy to assist Prince Yongren in ascending to the throne.
Teruzo Ando was the most proud. He glanced at his colleagues and said his plan: "If you have no objections, please contact His Highness immediately.
The Eighth Division is based in Hirosaki. It takes six to seven hours to get to Tokyo by train. There is no room for hesitation in this matter to avoid long nights and dreams. "
“Hai, I agree.”
“Agree.”
Everyone present raised their hands to vote, and Zuo Chong and the two were no exception. The mutiny team was truly united for the first time.
The officers are here for glory and wealth, Ozaki is for faith, Zuo Zhong is just for destruction, and all three parties want to kill the Locust. There is only one question left, how to make Yong Ren become a locust. The Royal Palace Guards Division and the Tongtong Army are not vegetarians.
Comparing the number of people, there is no need to compare.
Compared with equipment, there is also a huge gap.
Even if all the officers and soldiers of the Eighth Division were Yongren's men, it would be useless. Far water cannot quench the near thirst. Hirosaki is really too far away from Tokyo.
While everyone was thinking, a soldier ran in and reported a new situation - the **** Navy Red Deer stabbed him in the back.
The First Wing of the Combined Fleet has been ordered to sail into Tokyo Bay to be on alert, and the ferocious muzzles of the guns are facing the Sanno Hotel where they are located.
The opponent may hit the heads of the people present with the shells of the Nagato-class 410mm main gun at any time, which is simply too deceiving.
"idiot!"
After hearing this, Nakahashi Motoaki jumped up and cursed: "The army's patriots killed the traitors of the country, but the navy's Malu chose to help the thieves.
First they sabotaged our actions near the Imperial Palace, and now they mobilized warships to intimidate us. What exactly do their navy want to do?
Having so failed the expectations of the people, if we achieve great justice in the future, the first thing we should do is to cancel the designation of the Combined Fleet. "
This person is crazy. If the people from the navy hadn't hindered him, a mutiny might have happened. New grudges added to old grudges, and he wanted to disband the navy.
“Calm down, Nakabashi.”
The leader, Teruzo Ando, pressed his hand with style and asked the other person to sit down before talking. Then he frowned and asked his think tank.
“Okamoto-kun, the strength of the Navy’s Red Deer is extraordinary. Everything turned into powder under the gunfire. What should we do now?
Facing so many enemies, even if Prince Yongren comes to Tokyo, it will not help. Please think of a foolproof strategy, please. "
The officers looked at the reporter with a little expectancy after hearing this. The reporter was full of wisdom and would definitely be able to find a way for the prince to successfully ascend the throne.
“Hahaha, don’t worry about it.”
Zo Zhong, who was only wearing a feather towel, touched his non-existent beard and thought for a while before answering Ando Teruzo's question.
“The Navy is just bluffing. The fact that we can monitor the radio shows that they are deliberately leaking relevant information.
The purpose is nothing more than two. One is to warn us not to act rashly, and the other is to drag us here so that the ruling faction can eliminate us.
The navy would not dare to fire cannons. Don’t forget that this is Tokyo. The population density is so high. If the cannonballs miss, the casualties will be serious. "
yes,
That's it.
Everyone suddenly realized that if there was really a military operation, how could they let others know about it so easily? Navy Red Deer was indeed cunning.
Then they heard Zuo Chong say with a smile: "Actually, I propose to mobilize the people to rise up, just to prevent such a thing from happening.
I don’t believe that the navy dared to fire on unarmed people. There were senile old people and toddlers in the crowd.
Whoever orders the artillery fire will be a sinner of the empire and will be infamous for thousands of years. By supporting His Highness Yongren, you can also take advantage of these people.
We want to tell the people that the current locusts are colluding with the people in the country and are preparing to arrest the people who receive the property of the chaebol.
For the sake of the empire and justice, a new Locust must be chosen who has compassion and loves his people like a son to lead the empire forward. "
high!
It’s really high!
The Japanese soldiers were all smiles. Mr. Okamoto was worthy of being the strategist of the mutiny operation. He solved two major problems without any effort.
This move of the mob is really wonderful. It diverts the enemy's attention, makes the enemy use the enemy's weapon, and strengthens his own momentum. It is a standard way of killing three birds with one stone.
In short, with a clear plan, everyone took action, some contacted Yong Ren, some arranged defense, and some organized the people.
Ando Teruzo was going to go to the phone room to take a look. There was an internal line directly to the Eighth Division, and he might be able to talk to Yong Ren.
“Ando-kun, please wait a moment.”
Zo Shige quickly stopped him, then pulled him to a corner and whispered a few words. Ando Teruzo's expression changed again and again.
After thinking for a few seconds, he said sternly to Zuo Zhong: "Thank you Okamoto-kun for the reminder, I will let His Highness handle this matter carefully.
Thanks to your help this time, otherwise the operation would not have been so smooth. Don't worry, we will definitely defeat all enemies.
At that time, you will become the president of the Tokyo Daily News, and I will also become the new top brass in the military. Let us fight together. "
Ando Teruzo excitedly patted Zuo Zhong's shoulder, saying nonsense that even a fool would not believe, and a sickly blush flashed on both sides of his face.
Zuo Zhong glanced at him and smiled happily, OK, I'm not afraid of you being a salty fish, but I'm afraid that you don't have ambition. Only with ambition can you have motivation.
By the time Yong Ren takes office, this game will be almost over. The next time I come to Tokyo, it will probably be the day when the war is won.
Looking out the window at the beacon fires all over Tokyo, Zuo Zhong clasped his hands behind his back and looked far to the west, silently admiring this beautiful scenery.
I carefully checked the information and found that among all the countries and institutions that have had transactions with the government in history, the most conscientious and trustworthy is the Japanese Navy's Malu Shipyard. Gan
