Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 446 Assassination Target

"Japanese?"

After hearing the shopkeeper's words, Shen Cha and Jin Jing's complexions instantly turned ashen, and they stared straight at the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper almost knelt down for them due to the strong sense of oppression.

"Return to the general, that's what the guards sent by the young master said."

The shopkeeper swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and carefully looked at the faces of the two people. He could understand why they heard the "Japanese people". It didn't let the Japanese succeed, but it's annoying that such disasters always remain on the border.Moreover, the Japanese were barbaric, burning, killing and looting wherever they went, and they did everything they could.Not only Daxia has a strong hatred for them, even the Liao and Jin in the far north hate the Japanese very much, and wish they would disappear from this world immediately.

"General, military advisor, I don't understand something, please clarify." After Shen Cha and Jin Jing sat down, they moved a small stool to sit beside them, "This Japanese man lives in this place all year round. On an island outside the southern border of Daxia, it can be said that our place is far apart from each other. How could they... come here to do activities all of a sudden? No matter what aspect it is, it is not suitable for them to survive. "

"Your doubts are exactly where I am confused." Shen Cha and Jin Jing glanced at each other and nodded slightly, "We also find it very strange about this. According to common sense, what they have been thinking about for a long time has always been How did they occupy Daxia? From their point of view, Daxia has a vast land and rich resources, and the lives of the people are very prosperous. Most importantly, there are not so many natural disasters. They can live in peace and stability without having to worry all day long, worrying that they are sleeping It was taken back by God."

"General, is this what they said?"

"Yeah!" Shen Cha sighed, "Two years ago in Xijing, I had the opportunity to read the confessions of the captured Japanese people. Almost all the people there had the same idea. It was also mentioned in the confessions that they would not miss Liao , Jin, because they feel that apart from Daxia, people from other countries are living as miserable as they are."

"This... this..." The shopkeeper was a little bit dumbfounded, "Our life is much better than theirs. How can we be like them, who can't even do such simple things as food and clothing!"

"Don't take the words of the frog in the well to heart. It's just..." Jin Jing waved her hand, stroked her chin, and pondered for a while, "It's been less than two years now, and there are traces of the Japanese in the hinterland of the north. It's really unbelievable. Could it be that they changed their minds?"

"It's not incomprehensible." Shen Cha stretched out three fingers, "There are three possibilities that I can think of right now."

"Three?" Jin Jing and the shopkeeper looked at each other, "Tell me, which three?"

"The first possibility is that the Japanese found that they were unable to capture Daxia, and felt that this goal was out of reach, so they changed their purpose and turned their attack targets to Liao and Jin. The Japanese who were discovered were those who were in Liao, The eyeliner arranged by Jin allows them to gradually integrate into the life here, and gradually become the people here. They will slowly figure it out, wait for the right time, and replace Yelu's family and Wanyan's family. In this way, even if they cannot occupy the big In summer, it can also achieve the purpose of migrating from islands to flat land.”

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, they don't have the brains." As soon as Shen Cha finished speaking, the shopkeeper's head shook like a rattle, "The appearance, clothing and living habits of the Japanese are different from us, and they are different from those from the Western Regions." That group is also different, feeling...feeling..."

"I feel like a savage, except for being fierce and fierce, I don't know anything else." Jin Jing agrees with the shopkeeper, "The Japanese...will be targeted as soon as they show up, and they never hide and stay safe. possible."

"That's right, I think so too. They are special and easy to attract attention." Shen Cha put away a finger, "Actually, the essence of the second guess and the third guess are the same. Either The group of envoys who came to express their condolences were brought in secretly, or they were secretly raised by the princes and nobles of Linhuang Mansion, and the court officials. It was just a coincidence that they were discovered by Mr. Nan. Now that I think about it, the most reliable ones are Planted. Two, what do you think?"

"This..." Jin Jing thought for a while, then tilted her head to look at the shopkeeper, "Are there a lot of Japanese people in Linhuang Mansion on weekdays? Are they common?"

"Extremely few, almost none." The shopkeeper also racked his brains to recall, "Well, the little one agrees with the general's second guess, it should be brought in by an envoy from a certain country. As far as I know, with the The countries we deal with, that is, Jin, Tubo, and Duan have had contacts with the Japanese, and they get along pretty well."

"Remember, I've heard such rumors before, but rumors are rumors, whether it's true or not has yet to be confirmed." Shen Cha took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said, "By the way, the Japanese and the prison Is it relevant?"

"This one……"

Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, he heard two slight "swish" sounds, looked up, and saw two men in black came in through the window, rushed to Shen Cha, and knelt down on one knee to salute her.

Shen Cha took a closer look and recognized that they were the guards who had been by Yelunan's side all the time. They were the same as the shadows beside her. In addition to protecting the master, they were also responsible for delivering messages and assassinating enemy generals.

"Please stand up, both of you." Shen Cha stretched out his hand to help them up, "Is there any result?"

"Yes!" said the slightly shorter guard, "Young Master has just finished interrogating the Japanese, and he is afraid that the general will be worried, so he specially asks you to come back and report."

"Speak!"

"The matter in the big prison has nothing to do with the Japanese, and it is purely a coincidence that they were found. Originally, the humble people were ordered to capture the prisoner's family members who committed the crime. Unexpectedly, there were ten Japanese hiding next door to the prisoner's house. They heard the movement outside, As a thief, he mistakenly thought that the lowly people were going to capture them, so in order to escape for their lives, they clashed with the lowly people. During the fight, the Japanese were wounded seven times and died three times, and none of them escaped. The ones who are alive now have been killed by the young master. The general can rest assured that he will personally lead the heavy guards."

"Mr. Nan handles affairs properly, this general believes in this. It's just..." Shen Cha tapped on the table lightly, "How did the Japanese come in? Who placed them in that yard? How long have they lived in that yard?"

"The Japanese have just confessed that they entered Linhuang Mansion with the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin. In the past two years, they have had some business dealings with the nobles of the Kingdom of Jin. They hope that with the help of the Jin people, they can achieve the goal of occupying Daxia. The goal. I heard that this time to express their condolences to the late king, they asked the Jin people to bring them with them, and after paying a lot of money, the Jin people agreed."

"Impossible." Shen Cha shook his head, "They are lying, no matter which missions you are in, you will strictly inspect them, especially Jin Guo, you will never expose any of their entourage."

"General, this is indeed our omission." The two guards were a little embarrassed, "The golden man put them in the accompanying cage..."

"Cage?" Shen Cha was stunned for a moment, and then sneered, "Oh, it's really scheming and well-planned, they have already planned it out, even if they need to check when they enter the city, it is also for the identities of the entourage Checking, it is absolutely impossible to flip through the belongings of the envoy, otherwise it would be too rude. It is precisely because of this that they are so bold to send people in."

"Yes, as the general said, after they were sent to Linhuang Mansion, they were not placed in a post house, and the cages containing them were directly transported to that small courtyard. After entering that small courtyard, they got out of the cages. They also said that the person in charge of transporting them repeatedly told them not to go out or act at will, otherwise they will be responsible for the consequences if there is any problem.” The two guards looked at each other, “The general, they And said..."

"say what?"

"The purpose of their coming to Huang Mansion this time is to assassinate my king, and..." They looked at Shen Cha, "Emissary of Great Xia!"
