Chapter 383 Edo Rebellion

On February 18, the twelfth year of Jiaqi, King Honghu Kamakura led a hundred elite masters to attack Edo, the head of the ten cities, in the middle of the night.

As soon as a fierce battle broke out, the military attache responsible for arranging the Edo Castle garrison defected. Nearly three hundred garrison soldiers, led by General Gogoku under the command of the King of Kamakura, turned their guns and went straight to the Kinui Guards Station in the Japanese area!

Honghu's ferocity, coupled with the sudden incident, caught the Edo Castle Kinyi Guards off guard and retreated steadily, and Honghu attacked the block where Qianhu was located. In an emergency, Deputy Qianhu Guiwangda personally led his troops to meet the enemy, and the two sides fell into anxious street fighting.

At the same time, Chu Ke, another Honghu general, led an attack on the Xuanwei Envoy in the Japanese area. With the cooperation of the spies in the Yamen, the rebels made their way unimpeded and faced almost no decent resistance. They went straight to Xuanwei in the Japanese area. Li did not live in the house.

At the time of crisis, a Mo Xu Minggui named Chi Lord appeared and fought against Honghu Chuke and dozens of elite men under his command. After half an hour of fierce fighting, no Honghu could cross the threshold of Xuanwei Si Yamen.

At 2:00 p.m., Jinyiwei Baihu Mingwang led a general flag peacock and others out of the city to track the enemy leader King Kamakura, intending to behead him and reverse the situation in one fell swoop.

Encountering an ambush during the pursuit, Prince Mei was seriously injured in a sneak attack by the most powerful general of King Kamakura, Gotou Mizumura. The commander-in-chief Maoji risked his life to rescue him and successfully returned to Edo Castle.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the general banner Ran Deng, who is responsible for monitoring the movements of the headquarters of the four major companies, urgently reported to Qianhu Station, saying that the headquarters of Black Dragon Capital had been attacked by Honghu. The firepower and elite personnel were far superior to the other two groups of rebels in the city. , suspecting that Black Dragon Capital is the main target of Honghu’s attack.

At four o'clock in the morning, the Mingzhi family, the owner of Black Dragon Capital, took the initiative to give up resistance and evacuate all key personnel. Its headquarters building was immediately blown up by Honghu. The explosion swept through the city, and the flames covered the sun and burned the night like day.

Strangely, an underground space of unknown purpose was discovered in the razed Black Dragon Capital ruins.

Also discovered were some corpses from the Sequencers, which were later verified to be missing persons from the Empire.

Chou Shi, an hour after the attack broke out, Honghu began to retreat in full. On the way to escape, an encounter broke out with the Matsumoto Castle reinforcements, and hundreds of golden beasts from the Matsumoto Castle Jinyi Guards died in the line of duty.

At an ugly moment, the news of Honghu's attack on the city spread back to the empire's mainland, and the government and the public were shocked and in an uproar.

At the second moment of the ugly moment, Daoxu Bai Yujing sent a note to the New Donglin Party, hoping that the two groups could put aside their estrangement and allow Daoxu to send Tianshi into the Japanese area to investigate the case of the disappearance of Benxu personnel. This proposal was strongly rejected by the New Donglin Party on the grounds that "the new policy is the most important thing."

At three o'clock in the morning, the leader of the New Donglin Party went to Wenyuan Pavilion late at night and wrote a handwritten article in the old-fashioned way, naming the attack as the "Edo Rebellion" and ordering the Jinyiwei of the Japanese District to cooperate with the Xuanwei Si Yamen to solve the case as soon as possible.

"This is the situation that the Japanese area is facing after the turmoil last night. There is even a saying in the empire that whether the New Deal can be implemented depends on whether the Japanese Honghu can agree. This is a big deal for Ruxu. It is a great shame, so the Xuanwei Si Yamen in big cities will definitely not wait and see any longer, and will undoubtedly make every effort to promote the implementation of the new policy."

"Bai Yujing will definitely not give up after suffering a bad taste. Even people from Buddhist order will step in, so you better keep your eyes open during this period. Be careful and you won't even know if someone stabs you." what happened!"

Li Jun looked at the chattering man in front of him and couldn't help but smile: "Looking at your energy, your recovery is not bad."

"It's not bad, but I stayed in the tank for a long time, and I feel like my brain is not working very well."

Gui Wangda subconsciously answered the sentence, and immediately said with a straight face: "Don't make jokes with me here, you bad boy, do you know how big a trap you have made this time?"

Li Jun replied in a dull voice: "I know."

The Edo Rebellion seems to have nothing to do with Li Jun, the leader of hundreds of households in Inuyama City.

After all, he was in Osaka Castle when the incident happened.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that if Su Ce had not left Edo City, Honghu would not have dared to launch this attack anyway.

"It's good to know."

Ghost King Da sighed and said in a slower tone: "But this can't be entirely blamed on you. Judging from the manpower and firepower prepared by Honghu this time and the number of hidden stakes mobilized, it has obviously been planned for a long time. Even if you don't go Osaka Castle, I’m afraid they also have other ways to lure Sento-sama out of Edo Castle.”

"Fortunately, Lord Qianhu sent his Mojia Chi master to the Xuanwei Envoy Division in advance this time to block Chu Ke's attack. Otherwise, if the Xuanwei Envoy Li Bufeng really died in Honghu's hands, what would happen to this matter? Things are really getting serious.”

Speaking of this, Gui Wangda's eyes showed deep fear. It seems that he still dare not think deeply about the anger of the imperial court if Li Bufeng dies.

"What do you want Master Qianhu to do with me?" Li Jun asked calmly.

From the moment he received Su Ce's notice, Li Jun rushed to Qianhu's place non-stop. As a result, Ghost Wangda caught him in his office as soon as he entered the door. He hadn't even seen Su Ce in person, so he still didn't know what Su Ce would do with him.

Ghost King pondered for a moment, but did not answer directly. Instead, he said: "Why did you suddenly go to Osaka Castle? Is it related to your sequence?"

"Ah."

Li Jun did not hide anything and told Gui Wangda all the contents of his culprit ritual.

"I killed Yu Canghai, on the one hand, to avenge and vent my hatred, and on the other hand, the more important reason was to use him as the 'cause of trouble', to pull out those people standing behind him one by one, and then deal with them one by one. I guess This should be enough to form a 'disaster' and meet the requirements of the ritual."

Ghost King Da rolled his eyes, "You mean Prince Ming and the others, right?"

Li Jun chuckled and continued: "As soon as Yu Canghai died, I found that my gene lock had been unlocked and I successfully completed the promotion. I knew at that time that something was probably wrong."

"So, you are now Xu Wu?"

Gui Wangda looked at Li Jun who was nodding, and muttered a hometown slang that is similar to the irritating saying that people are more popular than others, and said: "If this is the case, then our Jinyiwei will not suffer too much loss this time."

Ghost King Da asked: "You should also know about Yu Canghai's collusion with King Honghu and Ping'an, right?"

"Qiu Long has already told me, but I always feel that this matter is not that simple."

Li Jun was not surprised by Yu Canghai's rebellion, but he always felt that it was too coincidental for it to come to light.

It was as if someone in Honghu did it deliberately and provided Li Jun with an excellent excuse, which made all the exculpatory methods he prepared later useless.

Li Jun, who had almost never experienced 'good luck', naturally suspected that there might be something fishy behind this incident.

"It's really not that simple, but it's nothing complicated either."

Ghost King Da smiled coldly: "It's just that some people want to use this to beg us for mercy."

Li Jun suddenly realized, "That swan that pretended to attack Osaka Castle? King Ping An?"

"Who else could he be? Sugawara Heima, a Japanese pirate, is really merciless when it comes to killing his own people."

Ghost King Da wondered: "But I really don't understand, why would a person who cherishes his life so much want to become a rebel and become a king in the Japanese area?"

"Yu Canghai rebelled against Honghu and had premeditated evil plans, so Mr. Qianhu Su sent you to Osaka Castle to kill the traitor. The entire operation was carried out secretly in order to minimize the negative impact of one Jinyiwei Baihu's rebellion on the entire Jinyiwei team. "

Ghost King Da paused for a moment, "The whole thing is reasonable and reasonable, and no one else can criticize it. But it's too early for you to be happy."

Oni Wangda changed the topic and said, "To be honest, the Edo Rebellion is still closely related to you. Now the pursuit is tight, and Prince Mying is seriously injured, and now hundreds of households in the entire Japanese area are Among them, you are the best at fighting."

"So what Qianhu means this time is to put you in charge of chasing down the Hongshun rebels of King Kamakura's lineage!"

"Master Qianhu, please believe us. The other three of us did not know about Black Dragon Capital from beginning to end, let alone participated in it." "Since you don't know about it, forget it. Guard your acre carefully. Thirdly, don’t cause trouble for me at this time.”

Su Ce waved his hand, and the three projections in front of him immediately dissipated.

"grown ups."

Qian Fengting, who was standing aside with his hands tied, walked up and said in a deep voice: "The space underground of the Black Dragon Capital headquarters has been investigated clearly. It should be a stripping site used to divide the authority of the slave Huangliang. Judging from the corpses left at the scene , I am afraid that nearly two hundred followers have died here, and most of them are people from Daoxu."

"So many unknown followers were able to enter Edo Castle quietly. It's really dark under the lights!"

Su Ce sneered: "What do Prince Ming and the others do for food? Who is the director of the second intelligence department under him?"

"The name is Ran Deng. Like King Ming, he has Buddhist books from Hanshan Temple."

Qian Fengting said: "But this matter should have nothing to do with the fight between the Buddhist and Taoist families. Prince Ming and the others should not be so courageous yet. There is a high probability that they were deceived by Black Dragon Capital."

Su Ce was silent for a moment, lit a cigarette and held it in the corner of his mouth. He asked with a half-smile, "Old Qian, I remember that your relationship with Prince Ming is not very good. Why don't you take the opportunity to step on him now?"

"At critical moments, we should discuss matters as they arise. Although he and I are at odds, we will not resort to such despicable means to add insult to injury."

Qian Fengting smiled faintly, "What's more, he went out to the city to behead the Kamakura King Du Pass. Although he didn't succeed, he was indeed determined to die. This is worthy of admiration."

"Among the scholars of Confucianism, there are very few people as conscientious as you, Lao Qian."

Su Ce laughed, "But there's one thing you're not right about."

"What?" Qian Fengting looked stunned.

"The fact that Black Dragon Capital was able to do this kind of thing under our noses must be related to the internal fighting between the Buddhist and Taoist families. Even if King Ming was not involved, the burning lamp under him must have tampered with it."

Su Ce said firmly, "This has nothing to do with their courage, but that they simply can't refuse. Han Buddhism is much better at controlling themselves than those monks from Fan Chuan who are full of obscenity and murder."

"Bringing the ring scar and installing the brain machine is equivalent to signing a contract of betrayal. Once you enter the so-called Huangliang Buddhist Kingdom of the eminent monks, you will be locked tightly. No matter how many times you change your face, you will not be able to escape them. tracking.”

"Eat it inside and out, so brave!"

Qian Fengting was furious, "I'm going to arrest him right now and interrogate him severely!"

"forget it."

Su Ce waved his hand to interrupt, slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, and said calmly: "Let Prince Ming handle it by himself. This time he fought with his life, so I still have to give him this face."

"Back to business."

Su Ce changed the subject, "Old Qian, they all say that you scholars have bright minds. Then tell me, does Black Dragon Capital really have nothing to do with the other three companies?"

"These are just excuses. With the strength and courage of the Mingzhi family, do they dare to single-handedly go to trouble Daoxu? Their ancestors were just the younger brothers behind Yin Yangxu, and now the eldest brother is just selling Huang Liang to the realm of lust. Well, how can he, a little loser, jump around?"

Qian Fengting said disdainfully: "In the past, these four companies were holding each other's hands, so they all naturally advanced and retreated together, venting their anger through one nostril. Now Black Dragon Capital has somehow got into trouble with Honghu, and someone has exposed the boss. Such a ready-made Of course, the other three companies will have to blame Black Dragon Capital."

"What you said, Lao Qian, makes sense. But there is still one thing I don't understand."

Su Ce said slowly: "Since you said these four companies joined forces to arrest Daoxu's people, why did Du Guan only focus on the Black Dragon Capital family?"

"This"

Qian Fengting was at a loss for words. Before he could answer, Su Ce continued to ask: "Even if he knew that Black Dragon Capital was a soft persimmon and easier to attack, then why did Du Guan go to such great lengths to attack Black Dragon Capital at all costs?" ?”

Su Ce's eyes were as cold as a knife, "Does he know what these families want to do?"

Qian Fengting had never thought of these issues before.

Now that it was mentioned from Su Ce's mouth, he thought about it for a moment, and felt like he was falling into layer upon layer of fog.

"Yeah, why did Du Guan do this?"

"Both you and I know that this person in Watoseki is a person who has no profit and cannot afford to be early. This time he used all the chips in his hands and even led Heima Sugawara to lure me out of Edo and took such a big risk to attack Black Dragon Capital. , enough to illustrate a point.”

Su Ce said word by word, "The things in that stripping yard are enough to make up for all his losses."

“Stuff from the stripping yard”

Qian Fengting murmured to himself and suddenly exclaimed: "Is he doing it for those rights?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Fengting himself said in confusion: "That's not right. Du Guan is Zonghengxu's person. This is something we have confirmed a long time ago. Then what does he do with these things? Could it be that Zonghengxu can still use Huang Liangmeng now? Jing Xing was deceived?"

"More than that, now that the Mingzhi family has been proven guilty and has absconded, the entire Black Dragon Capital exists in name only, and all the properties have been taken over by the Xuanwei Envoy."

Su Ce squinted his eyes and smacked his mouth, "Is there a feeling of a strong man breaking his wrist, changing from light to dark?"

"You mean, Black Dragon Capital may also take the initiative to expose itself, close the door on extradition, and take the opportunity to escape?"

Qian Fengting was shocked.

"I do not know either."

Su Ce shrugged his shoulders and looked self-deprecating, "It's a shame that we still claim to be a royal guard who walks in the night and penetrates all over the place. Now someone rushes into the house and robs us, but we still don't know what the things they took away are used for. It's really It’s embarrassing enough.”

"It's all our incompetence."

Qian Fengting looked ashamed and bowed.

"There is no need to talk about these nonsense. The key now is to clarify these incomprehensible things one by one. Otherwise, when it is time to kill, how will you know who should be stabbed first?"

Su Ce took off the cigarette butt from the corner of his mouth and refilled himself, "Leave this matter to that brat Li Jun."

"I was sneaked hundreds of miles away in the middle of the night. If he didn't give me this face back, I would have pulled out his skin!"
