Chapter 715 Qingdeng’s cronies are in danger! The "Testing Guard School" is being targeted

Chapter 715 Qingdeng’s cronies are in danger! The "Testing Guard School" is being targeted! 【4400】

"I wanted to seize the Shinsengumi and make it mine."

"I originally thought that the Shinsengumi would not be able to survive the 'shortage of food and salary' crisis."

"I want to take advantage of the precious opportunity of the military morale to be in chaos to seize the Shinsengumi in one go."

"I never thought...that Tachibana Aoden is indeed quite capable...!"

"He actually got through this!"

Speaking of this, Qinghe Hachilang frowned, his cheekbones bulged, he gritted his teeth, his face full of unwillingness and resentment.

"I don't know if he received guidance from an expert or something, but he was able to find Yataro Iwasaki, who is extremely talented in business, and come up with a great idea like the 'Silver Mirror' that will make a lot of money!"

"An ordinary silver mirror can earn several taels, or even ten taels of gold!"

"That Yataro Iwasaki is obviously just an unknown person, but he is able to see through business opportunities keenly, and he is responsible for running the huge Shinsei Chamber of Commerce in an orderly manner."

"As far as I know, he is currently preparing to sell silver mirrors overseas."

“Ship after ship of silver mirrors were transported to Osaka and brought back ship after ship of gold!”

"In addition, he has recently begun to branch out into other industries."

"In the name of the Shinseng Chamber of Commerce, he purchased a large piece of land on the outskirts of Kyoto and started building land from the river."

"If this project is completed, we can earn huge wealth!"

"Under the governance of Yataro Iwasaki, the Shinsei Chamber of Commerce is now thriving."

"With food and pay, there is military morale."

"All the soldiers of the Shinsengumi, who are eating a gluttonous feast and receiving generous pay, all respect Tachibana Aoden and treat him as their master!"

"Today, if you want to replace Tachibana Aoden and snatch the Shinsengumi, it will be extremely difficult."

Speaking of this, Qinghe Balang snorted with annoyance.

"Forget it, since we can't capture the Shinsengumi, let's destroy it!"

Qinghe has always had a very clear understanding of his own identity - a loyal and honorable man!

He never agreed with the rule of the shogunate and regarded the emperor but not the general.

From the day he joined the Shinsengumi, he was rushing to "capture the Shinsengumi".

Isn't it beautiful to spend the money of the shogunate, consume the food of the shogunate, and then use the soldiers of the shogunate to attack the shogunate - a white wolf with empty hands!

Using his identity as "Shinsengumi's adviser" to secretly seize the Shinsengumi and transform it into the vanguard of the great cause of war-the above is Kiyokawa Hachiro's plan...or the "original plan".

Just like what he said just now, he originally wanted to wait until the Shinsengumi was in chaos due to lack of food and salary, and then secretly seek for it.

However... the changes that took place after that were far beyond his expectations!

However, it is no wonder that he made this misjudgment.

Before that, anyone would have thought that Seito's situation was already in danger and that the Shinsengumi was a dying force.

Without money and food supplies from the shogunate, how long can this temporarily established new army last?

In fact, before Seito formed the Shinsengumi Chamber of Commerce, almost everyone was not optimistic about the future of the Shinsengumi.

Even if Qingdeng could manage to keep this stall going, its development would be limited.

As a result... Aoto was able to survive this difficulty simply by relying on one person and one thing - Yataro Iwasaki and Ginjing! And further strengthen the Shinsengumi!

In terms of personal prestige, Qinghe Hachiro couldn't even reach Qingdeng's knees.

In terms of logistics supply, thanks to Meng Qingteng's favor, the soldiers of the Shinsengumi enjoy the best treatment in the country.

Whether it was "spiritually" or "materially", Qinghe Hachiro was beaten by Qingdeng in all aspects.

In this situation, talking about "replacing Tachibana Aoden" or "seeking the Shinsengumi" is simply wishful thinking!

Therefore, when Hachiro Kiyokawa discovered that his "tampering plan" had no possibility of being realized, he had to settle for the next best thing and change to another plan - to destroy the Shinsengumi!

Aoshito's lofty status and favor within the shogunate, as well as the Shinsengumi's strong combat effectiveness in the "Iga Offensive and Defense Battle", made all Japanese lofty ideals deeply aware of one fact - the soaring strength The new Sengumi has become a huge obstacle to the great cause of Zunxing!

An obstacle that cannot move forward until it is removed!

In the eyes of those with lofty ideals and strategic vision, weakening the Shinsengumi, or even destroying it, has become an urgent priority!

Qinghe Balang is well aware of his own frailty.

To this end, he has been seeking support from external forces.

From the imperial court to Changshu, from Satsuma to Tosa, he sent his cronies to contact every force he could count on and rely on.

The court's attitude was ambiguous.

Satsuma made it clear that he refused to cooperate.

Changzhou did not respond.

Only the Tosa Kinwang Party in Tosa expressed "interest in you."

Finally, today, Qinghe Hachiro's cronies reported to him: Takeshi Hanheita is willing to form an alliance with them! And I want to meet him tonight!

That's why the scene of "the two meeting in secret" was engraved.

After listening to Qinghe Hachiro's emotion, Takeshi Hanheita said calmly:

“I have to bear part of the responsibility for Tachibana Aoden’s great situation today.”

"Iwasaki Yataro was originally a country wanderer from Tosa."

"Previously, Tachibana Aoden personally came to visit and offered a 'remuneration of 10 taels' in exchange for the deregistration of Yataro Iwasaki and his family, and the restoration of Iwa's father's reputation."

"The IOU he originally wrote to me is still kept in my bookcase."

"To be honest, I didn't take Yataro Iwasaki seriously at all at first,"

"I don't think Tachibana Aoden has the outstanding ability to strengthen the Shinsengumi."

"I just think Ju Qingden is really crazy. He actually spent 10 taels of gold to 'buy' an unknown underground ronin."

"Anyway, it's something that won't make you lose money. Why don't you take advantage of the situation and sell Juqing as a favor?"

"So, I agreed to the conditions he proposed."

"Now it seems... I am blind."

"We lost a valuable talent for nothing...it's such a shame."

After hearing this, Qinghe Hachiro's facial expression suddenly became embarrassed.

He had just eloquently described how Aoto became even more powerful after acquiring Iwasaki Yataro, but he had forgotten that "Iwasaki Yataro was originally from Tosa, and the reason why he served Aono was all because of Takeichi Hanheita's 'assist'" fact.

In this way, his previous words seemed to be secretly accusing Takeshi Hanheita of his fault.

At this time, someone standing behind Wushi Hanpingtai suddenly said:

"Teacher, since you still keep Ju Qingden's IOU, let's go collect the debt from him!"

"That guy has a lot of money now! There's no way he can't hand over 10 gold!"

"'10 taels of gold will be exchanged for Iwasaki Yataro' - this is what Tachibana Aoden said personally, and he also wrote an IOU in black and white!"

"This money belongs to us. If we don't take it, we won't take it for free!"

As soon as the man finished speaking, Takeshi Hanheita turned his head sideways, squinted his eyes, and glanced at him coldly.

"We are noble warriors."

"As a samurai, but acting like a businessman, holding up an IOU to ask for debts from others, what is the decency of him?"

After being scolded by Takeshi Hanheita, the man immediately lowered his head with a look of shame on his face.

"Teacher, I'm sorry...I was reckless."

When Qinghe Balang saw this, he thought to himself:

——This person calls Wu Shi Hanping Tai "teacher"... Apparently, he should be Wu Shi Hanping Tai's student.

Wu Shi Banping Taiyuan is a master of a field.

He was a talented man with both civil and military skills.

Therefore, his dojo taught both martial arts and knowledge.

The most eye-catching aspect of his ashram is that he is "regardless of his origins".

Regardless of whether they are senior sergeants who enjoy all the privileges or low-status Baizha countrymen and corporals, they can freely join his sect.

Hanping Tai's class identity in Takeshi is Baizha Xiangshi. Although the social status of Baizha Xiangshi is higher than that of corporals, in the eyes of sergeants, it is still synonymous with "humble".

For this reason, the sergeants were completely dismissive of Hanping Tai's dojo in Wu City.

In this way, most of the apprentices of Banpingtai in Wu City are the children of corporals.

In general, the corporal's position in Tosa Domain was extremely embarrassing.

Although he is a warrior, he suffers discrimination.

The unfair treatment suffered by the corporals includes, but is not limited to: not being able to hold an umbrella on rainy days and having to wear a raincoat; not being able to wear clogs but only straw sandals; if you meet a sergeant on the road, you need to stand on the side of the road to make way for the sergeant. …

In such an environment, there is such a dojo that not only will not discriminate against you because you are a corporal, but will also teach you martial arts and arts... It can be imagined that the corporals are naturally grateful to Wu Shi Banping.

Even if he is not his student, he will still respect and love him.

After Hanheita Takeichi formed the Tosa Kinnoi Party, most of its core members were his disciples.

As a result, following the "grace of education", the apprentices of Banpingtai in Wushi received the "grace of knowledge".

Measured by the values ​​of the feudal era, such a great kindness cannot be compensated even by risking one's life!

Most of those who call Takechi Hanheita "teacher" and follow him to conquer the world regard him as their lifelong belief! Worship him like a god!

Because of this, although the Tosa Kinou Party is not large in scale, it has extremely high centripetal force.

At this time, Takeshi Banheita continued:

"I don't like asking people for money in a groveling manner."

"I like to take away things that belong to me one by one!"

"If we can destroy the Shinsengumi, the benefits we can get are not comparable to a mere 10 taels of gold?"

Speaking of this, Takeichi Hanheita narrowed his eyes, and a sharp light burst out from his mouth.

"Qinghe-Jun, let's get back to the topic."

"On behalf of the Tosa King Party, I would like to formally form an alliance with you!"

"From now on, we will help each other."

“We are in the same boat and we share weal and woe.”

"Gather your strength and mine, and let's subvert the Shinsengumi together!"

Qinghe Hachilang immediately responded:

"This is natural! Mr. Wushi, to be honest, I have been waiting for this day for too long!"

Wushi Banpingtai nodded lightly:

"Then, let's make an oath by striking gold!"

As he spoke, he picked up the saber beside him and pulled out half of the blade with a clang.

Qinghe Hachiro immediately made the same move - picked up the sword and pulled out half of the blade.

The next moment, the two of them sheathed their swords without any order of precedence.

The sword collided with the sheath, and the clear clang shook the air.

Afterwards, Hanheita Takeichi put away his sword and said quietly:

"Qinghe-Jun, since you and I are already allies, as a token of our sincerity in forming an alliance, I will take the lead in being honest and honest."

"Although the Shinsengumi's current scale is staggering, in my opinion, it does have a lot of hidden dangers."

"The biggest hidden danger is that 'Tachibana Aoden has a unique and lofty status in the Shinsengumi'."

"Ju Qingden is like a huge pillar."

"He single-handedly maintained the existence and development of the Shinsengumi."

"However, it also created a dangerous situation where 'the Shinsengumi cannot do without Tachibana Aoden'."

"Nioh is here, and the Shinsengumi is here."

"If Niou is gone, the Shinsengumi will be in danger."

"The prestige and ability of the other generals under Tachibana Aoden are not enough to lead the huge Shinsengumi."

"Therefore, the key to subverting the Shinsengumi lies in 'Tachibana Aoden's life and death'!"

"As long as Tachibana Aoden is killed, the Shinsengumi will not attack themselves!"

"I personally think that if you want to bring down Ju Qingden, you must first cut off his wings."

"Ju Qingden has the courage to be invincible."

"To kill him head-on is really a fool's errand."

"However, it would be much easier to deal with the cronies around him."

"Without the help of his close associates, no matter how capable Tachibana Aoden is, he will have nowhere to display his talents."

"So this is my plan: 'Clip its wings and leave it alone'!"

"Try every possible means to get rid of all of Tachibana Aoden's cronies! Then concentrate our efforts to kill Tachibana Aoden and destroy the Shinsengumi!"

Qinghe Hachiro listened carefully.

After Wu Shi Banping finished speaking, he frowned slightly and looked like he was thinking.

After a while, he slowly said:

"What you said is indeed true knowledge and insight."

"But... in my opinion, your plan is not easy."

"All of Tachibana Aoden's cronies are nothing more than the 11 people from the 'Tribekan Faction' - Kondo Isamu, Hijikata Toshizo, Yamanan Keisuke, Okita Souji, Nagakura Shinpachi, Saito Ichi, Inoue Genzaburo, Toudo Heisuke , Harada Sanosuke, Chiba Sanako and Kinoshita Mai.”

"If these people can be eliminated, Ju Qingden's power and prestige will indeed suffer a serious blow."

"But... with all due respect, these 11 people are not fuel efficient."

"Even Sanako Chiba and Mai Kinoshita, who are both girls, have extraordinary courage."

"It's not that easy to get rid of them."

Takeshi Hanheita nodded slightly.

"Qinghe-Jun, I understand your concerns."

"But...since I dare to propose such a plan, then I am certainly sure to make it happen!"

As he spoke, his tone changed to a cold one that showed neither sadness nor joy.

"The cronies of Tachibana Aoden are very strong... Then I just need to send people who are stronger than them and good at assassination to get rid of them, right?"

……

……

The next day, night——

Kyoto, somewhere——

"Tsk, it's so hot...!"

Todo Heisukero wiped the sweat from his forehead and kept complaining.

The air in summer is humid and sticky, without a trace of wind, and the heat is breathless.

According to Japanese parlance, tonight is a standard "tropical night".

Today happens to be the day when the Eighth Division patrols Kyoto.

As the captain of the Eighth Division, Toudo Heisuke personally led the team to patrol the streets and perform his duties as usual.

Just when Heisuke Toudo was holding a lantern and leading dozens of team members to walk struttingly on a street in Kyoto, a lone, thin black shadow followed closely behind him...
