Chapter 1072 Spy: Impossible [Long live the motherland! ! ! ! 】

Many historical events have turned from a cluster of flames to a prairie fire, in fact, because of the connivance of the parties involved.

The same is true of the Shimabara uprising.

Dongying was originally a place as big as a sesame mung bean. How could the actions of Amakusa Tokisada and others be hidden from the eyes and ears of those who are interested?

But in such an environment where there was nothing to hide, they suddenly became bigger and stronger.

Everyone believes that these evil-minded guys can use it to achieve their own goals.

But using it, using it, Amakusa Tokisada and others found a golden opportunity, and they borrowed external force to get out of control.

Shimabara Castle was easily breached.

As the old nest of the Matsukura family, the materials stored here can be said to be incomparably rich.

And these things are all cheaper for the Shimahara Rebels.

Matsukura Katsuie, the cruel and incompetent feudal lord, tried to escape but failed, and was blocked in the house by the Shimahara rebels.

Of course he knew what would happen if he fell into the hands of the Shimabara rebels.

Desperate, he pulled out his knife and wanted to kill himself.

But as a pampered person, he was afraid of pain, so he couldn't do it after several consecutive attempts.

Just when he was hesitating, Amakusa Tokisada led the men and rushed in.

For this villain, Amakusa Tokisada has no mercy.

With a wave of the long knife, Katsuie Matsukura's head flew up.

Separation of body and head is an absolutely unacceptable way of death for Japanese warriors, but it happened to Matsukura Katsuya.

His eyes before he died were astonished, panicked but somewhat relieved.

And this kind of punishment also made the people who had suffered so much vent their anger.

"Immediately send people to count food, grass and money, and control the main roads in the city. And send effective soldiers to control the internal and external gates."

In the face of the great victory, only Xia Guo's instructors remained calm.

It is really such a victory, it is really nothing in front of them.

Amakusa Shizhen hurriedly woke up from the joy, and arranged according to Yuan Shengshang's arrangement.

The influence of the Songcang family has not been completely eradicated, and it is likely to become a future trouble.At this time, there should be no delay, and troops must be dispatched immediately to complete their merits in one battle.

Amakusa Tokisada fully accepted Yuan Shengshou's suggestion.

He let a capable confidant garrison Shimabara Castle, and then led most of the troops to continue the operation.

There is also an important city in the Tangjin domain, which is the original castle located at the southernmost tip of the Shimabara Peninsula.

Kojima Gohei, the elder of the Matsukura family and the lord of the original castle, is still entrenched here.

In the original history, the Shimabara Rebel Army broke through the Hara Castle, and relied on this city to resist the shogunate and various daimyos for more than eight months.

Originally, the Shimabara Rebels, who did not have many firearms, easily broke through Hara Castle. Now with the help of artillery, Hara Castle fell into the hands of the rebels.

So far, the power of the Matsukura family has been completely eradicated, and the entire territory of Tangjin Fan has been completely controlled by the rebels.

Yuan Shengzhang asked Amakusa Tokisada to send [-] people to Aino to completely cut off the connection between Shimabara Peninsula and Kyushu Oshima.

The terrain there is narrow, backed by mountains, as long as they guard it, it will be difficult for the shogunate and the troops of various daimyos to enter the Shimabara Peninsula by land.

In this way, the Shimabara rebels only need to defend the sea direction.

The progress of the uprising was very smooth, and the accident happened very suddenly.

Amakusa Shizhen was celebrating the victory with his subordinates when Yuan Shengshou rushed in with someone.

Without giving everyone time to react, Amakusa Tokisada's most important confidant, Komon Erweirou, was under control.

Everyone in Dongying was panicked. Some wanted to jump up, but facing the muskets in front of them, they could only sit down obediently.

Amakusa Tokisada didn't know what happened.

"Instructor Yuan, let Er Weilang go quickly, are you trying to seize power?"

Yuan Shengshou laughed, and pointed at the flustered Xiaomen Erweilang.

"Tiantong, you don't know yet, this subordinate of yours is actually an undercover agent of the shogunate."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked, but at the same time they couldn't believe it.

Xiaomen Erweilang struggled even more.

"Damn Han people, don't try to slander me. You must want to cut off Tiantong's wings, and then take away the power, and plot evil."

Different from his crazy yelling, Yuan Shengzhang is very calm.

"It seems...you don't cry when you don't see the coffin."

He clapped his hands, and another group of people came in outside the tent.

But when he saw the figure being escorted, Xiaomen Erweilang suddenly went limp and completely lost his strength.

Yuan Shengshang handed a bamboo tube to Amakusa Shizhen, and then said to the man who was bound firmly: "You should tell, what's going on?"

That person has already turned into a sieve, how dare he hide it in order to survive?

"Er Wei Lang asked me to send the secret letter to Nagasaki and hand it over to Mr. Feng Xing. He said that after it is done, he will recommend me to become a samurai."

While he was confessing, Amakusa Tokisada had already opened the bamboo tube.

Inside is a simple note, and the above content describes the situation of the Shimahara Rebels in detail, and emphasizes that the Shimabara Rebels have obtained muskets and artillery from Xia Guo.

Obviously, once the above information is leaked, the impact will be very terrifying.

Amakusa Toki's face was completely distorted.

"Erweilang, you are the person I can trust the most, why did you do this?"

Xiaomen Erweilang had given up struggling.

The matter has come to this point, and all struggles are in vain.

"Master Tendo, don't you know? I have always been a member of the shogunate. It was the shogunate who sent me here to stay by your side."

Amakusa Tokisada felt cold all over.

As long as I think of myself running around all these years, plotting against the shogunate.And the shogunate saw all this, which made him shudder.

With such an undercover agent by his side, can everything he does now be successful?

Xiaomen Erweilang and the spy were escorted out.

There is only a dead end waiting for them.

In the tent, everyone is at risk.

When something like this happened, everyone became suspicious.Unnaturally, he felt that the person in front of him might also be an undercover agent of the enemy.

At this time, only Yuan Shengshou can solve Amakusa Shizhen's confusion.

"Those big names in the west use you to stir up wind and rain. Doesn't the shogunate have no purpose?"

When Amakusa Shizhen looked at it in astonishment, Yuan Shengshou saw it clearly.

"The daimyos in the west have always been obedient to the shogunate, but the shogunate has long conspired against these daimyos who are out of control. But the teacher came out of nowhere, and the shogunate was afraid of arousing public anger. Everything you have done now is just in the name of the shogunate."

Everything that happened on Dongying Island became transparent immediately after Xia Guo participated.

In the eyes of the Ministry of Intelligence, all the plots played by the Dongying people are so simple and naive.

Yuan Shengshou saw through the Shimabara uprising at a glance, and the shogunate had already grasped the situation and played a role in fueling the flames.

And this turmoil will become a godsend opportunity for the shogunate to sort out Kyushu Island.

Among the western daimyo and the shogunate, it is unknown who is the mantis and who is the oriole.
