In just a few days, Mai no Machi became lively. Some young men and women came here one after another, making the already deserted town lively again. These men and women seemed to be pampered and generous, making the poor farmers happy. They made a lot of money in these years, and they lived in various hot spring hotels in Mainomachi. Although it makes people feel a little strange that people would come here to travel at such a time, but with their hands The banknotes are genuine, and no one can resist its temptation. Even Kentaro Tsumami’s tavern once again raised the banner of soliciting customers and joined the ranks of the townspeople making money.

Takeda Yixiong turned a blind eye to this, and no one noticed that his entourage had all put on new faces.

"Have Lei Zhen's troops reached the designated target?" Lin Xiaotang asked the fire eyes in front of him.

"After receiving your order, Lei Zhen's troops immediately set off from Ryukyu. They have all arrived at Okahira Island to the north of Isaki Island. Because it is very close to North Korea, there are not many Japanese defenders on Isaki Island. Not to mention the daily search of the surrounding islands, therefore, they have all arrived safely and settled down. The total number of people is 2,200. According to your instructions, they have all mastered the basic Japanese dialect and will never go wrong. , even if someone discovers it, they just think there is an extra pirate on the sea."

Lin Xiaotang nodded with satisfaction. Lei Zhen's troops were able to lurk near Kyushu, Japan, which meant that his plan had been initially successful. Huoyan did not mention some situations, and Lin Xiaotang did not ask why Okahira Island was originally selected as a lurking base. There is a reason. Over the years, Lin Xiaotang has spared no expense in arming Lei Zhen's three thousand elite Marines. From weapons and equipment to logistical supplies, they are all modeled on those provided by the American army. The reason why he did not bring all the troops over is that In order to avoid American eyes and ears, Lin Xiaotang had deliberately transferred several American instructors as early as two years ago, and the transfer was also unexpected.

Okahira Island is less than a hundred nautical miles away from Isaki Island. It is located in a remote location. The Japanese guard force on the island only has one infantry squad. There are only five to six hundred residents on the island. With the strength of Lei Zhen's command, , the battle can be over in less than an hour. However, for the sake of confidentiality, the residents and Japanese soldiers on the island cannot be left alive. Fortunately, this island has little contact with the outside world and is basically isolated from the world. If you seize the situation, it will not attract the attention of the Japanese at all, but the killing will be inevitable.

"Order Lei Zhen to closely monitor every move of Isaki Island and Hirado. There are not many Japanese troops stationed here, but it is the transportation and commercial trade hub of Kitakyushu. Remember, our first step in attacking the Japanese mainland is Hirado."

Huoyan recorded it carefully.

"Also, Bai Jinwen is the person in charge of telecommunications for this operation. All participants and equipment are under her command. The previously determined telecommunications work safety regulations must be strictly observed. Japan's local intelligence agencies are equipped with many wireless signals to detect You must pay attention to the equipment you use. This is the home of the Japanese, so you must be cautious in all your actions."

"By the way, have Takashimasuke and the Kwantung Army taken any action?" Lin Xiaotang continued to ask.

Huoyan suddenly laughed, "Just as you imagined, Takashimasuke has indeed sneaked back to the mainland."

"Oh, really, this guy moves so fast." Lin Xiaotang also laughed.

"Feng Yunxiu did a good job. Some information was leaked to Takashima Suke through different channels. It seems that the senior officials of the Kwantung Army were very interested in this information and took action immediately."

Lin Xiaotang nodded. Regarding Takashima Suke and the Kwantung Army, the huge military group behind him, Lin Xiaotang had worked hard over the years. As early as after the "226" incident, the Kwantung Army became the exile of the Imperial Sect officers. Here, there is a large number of officers who are unwilling to be left alone and want to regain the command of the Japanese army. Although the commanders of the Kwantung Army have been changed one after another, these people have never seen the hope of another comeback. In this kind of suffering, His patience was exhausted, and all that was left was increasingly fiery anger. The Burmese front army's seizure of power during the war was their breakthrough. By the time the base camp woke up to what had happened, their defeat was certain. Here, In this competition, the old and young of the Imperial Sect regained the command of a front army, which gave them a long-lost hope. In addition to carefully strengthening their defenses, the base camp did not pay much attention to these officers who held military power. Dare to suppress too much, because now is indeed not a good time for internal fighting.

But the Imperial Dao Sect doesn't think so. The Burmese incident gave them a sweet taste. It's like an opium smoker. Once he tastes the bone-crushing and ecstatic taste, it is completely impossible to stop.

In Japan, Lin Xiaotang quickly discovered several unusual places through his understanding of Japan's modern history and the knowledge given by ghosts. For this reason, he ordered Feng Yunxiu to use his family's connections and connections in Japan to thoroughly investigate these places. Information, and found two very interesting characters in it.

Lin Xiaotang believed that the existence of these two people would be the fuse that ignited the powder keg in Japan, and the source of the ignition was in his hands.

Under the guidance of Feng Yunxiu, or Lin Xiaotang, step by step, Takashimasuke quickly approached the edge of that huge plan. As long as he came into contact with an established target person hidden in a farm near Kyoto, then this plan would be It can start execution automatically. No one knows what will happen next, and no one can stop this action.

…

Fujisawa City, Kanagawa, is only 60 kilometers away from Tokyo, close to the Katase Coast and Enoshima. It is a famous resort. However, due to the war, it fell into a deserted situation like Mainomachi.

On the beach at the seaside, a few seabirds landed curiously, looking for food in the sand. The waves surged onto the beach from time to time, and the seabirds flexibly avoided, but still dodged and searched among them. Until a few people slowly walked along the coastline towards this beach.

The people walking at the front seemed to be a middle-aged couple. The man was thin and wore a windbreaker that did not match the season. He had a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose. Next to him was a woman wearing a plain dress. , has a fair complexion, and although she has reached a certain age, her graceful temperament cannot be concealed.

Walking ten steps behind the two of them was a sturdy middle-aged man with short hair standing straight on his head. Although his eyes wandered away from the beach from time to time, his attention always remained on the middle-aged man wearing a windbreaker in front of him. On the body.

Behind them are four men in suits. Although they are walking on the beach, their steps are surprisingly consistent. If the three people in front stop accidentally, these four people will immediately stand upright.

The middle-aged couple walked into a reef. The short-haired man winked at the four people behind them and quickly caught up with them. They followed closely behind. Several huge rocks blocked the surrounding view. On the beach, An old man wearing a bamboo hat is fishing.

The middle-aged couple walked to the old man's side. The middle-aged man in a windbreaker coughed twice and said softly: "Takashima-kun, you are well."

The old man trembled and took off his bamboo hat, revealing a slowly wrinkled face. The old man pulled off the "beard" and "wrinkles" on his face, and bowed deeply to the middle-aged couple. Full of trembling, he said, "Your Highness, how come you are so clean?"

The middle-aged man smiled self-deprecatingly and covered his mouth with his right fist, "My health has gotten much better in the past two years, but you are still so cautious after I haven't seen you in so many years."

The short-haired middle-aged man found an unusually smooth stone washed away by the waves from the side, wiped it carefully with a handkerchief, and then helped the middle-aged man in the cloak to sit down slowly.

The middle-aged man raised his head and looked at Takashimasuke, who had taken off his disguise, "Takashima-kun, I wonder how Muranaka Koji, Kataoka Taro and others are doing now."

Takashima Suke burst into tears and knelt down in front of the middle-aged man, "Your Highness, don't you know that they were all secretly executed in July of the 11th year of the Showa era?"

"What." The middle-aged man suddenly stood up, and the middle-aged lady and the short-haired man hurriedly supported each other with their hands.

"Didn't he get transferred to the reserves and Taiwan? How could it be possible? How could it be possible?" The middle-aged man became incoherent, and two lines of tears filled the corners of his eyes. "It was me who harmed them."

The short-haired middle-aged man knelt down in front of the middle-aged man with a plop, "Your Highness, it's all my fault. The Lords of Takaji in the village were indeed killed that year. It's just that I was afraid that Your Highness would be provoked, so I hid it." After so many years, the seventeen young officers involved in that incident were secretly executed without trial."

"Actually, there are other reasons," the short-haired man continued: "During the incident that year, the villagers Koji had publicly announced that you, Prince Chichibu Palace, were their leader. After the incident subsided, Masaki Jinzaburo and Yanagawa Heisuke He was deposed, and the Murakami Lords were arrested, and you had expressed your attitude in front of His Majesty the Emperor at that time. If you learn of the death of the Murakami Lords, I am worried that you will, you will..."

"Haga." Prince Chichibu Palace kicked the short-haired man. Looking at his thin figure, it was really unbelievable that he could have such great power. The short-haired man rolled on the ground and seemed not to be affected at all. , continued to kneel down respectfully in front of Prince Chichibu Palace.

After a while, Prince Chichibu Palace's heaving chest calmed down. Princess Otsuzuko beside him patted the back of his hand gently with a worried look on his face. He exhaled a breath of thick air, and his burning heart gradually cooled down.
