"What, sir, are you leaving?"

Zuo Shige came to Ando Teruzo, and instead of whispering a few words, Ando Teruzo, who was inciting the prisoners to join the mutiny, was shocked.

Now they are only one step away from victory. Everyone is waiting for the last moment to come, and Okamoto Shigenobu is leaving.

Considering the cooperation between himself and the other party, he quickly persuaded: "Why do you want to leave, sir? Your Highness and we both need you.

Furthermore, we risk our lives to honor the emperor and seek rape, isn’t it just so that we can ascend to a high position by virtue of our support after the deed is accomplished?

Once Sir leaves, people like Xiang Tian Qingzhen will definitely seize the position that belongs to you, so you should wait until His Highness wakes up before making plans."

Ando Teruzo tried to persuade Zuo Zhong to give up the idea of ​​leaving. In a sense, he was a qualified ally.

"Haha, Ando-kun."

Zuo Zhong waved his hand, pretending to be relaxed and said: "I haven't seen my wife for several days, and with the chaos in the city, I can't help but feel a little uneasy.

I will return when I get home to pick up my wife. It will take an hour or two at most. I will not delay His Highness’s important matters. Please don’t worry, Mr. Ando.

By the way, His Highness has given an order before resting. The personnel will take a short rest and the people will attack the palace first. Our people will not take action for the time being."

What needs to be done has been done, and the holes that need to be dug have been dug. There is no point in staying in Tokyo and Japan, and there is no way to leave without retreating.

Historically, this mutiny ended in failure, and the soldiers who participated in the operation were either dishonorably discharged or transferred to the front lines of the puppet Manchukuo.

The officers who led the team were even worse. They either committed suicide or were shot after trial. Even their family members were treated as non-citizens and were humiliated.

So with his interference, whether the so-called emperor-respecting campaign will succeed, and whether Yong Ren will successfully ascend the throne, the answer is impossible.

There is only one reason,

Chaebol.

Since the Meiji Restoration, these capitalists have penetrated into all aspects of Japanese society and accumulated a large amount of wealth and connections.

Regardless of the fact that Ando Teruzo and the others currently have the advantage, once the chaebols exert their power, they can defeat the mutinous team even with money.

What's more, among the first seven divisions established by the Japanese army, let alone the First and Guards Divisions, the others were only loyal to Tian Locust.

If Zuo Zhong guessed correctly, these five divisions are on Qinwang Road at this moment, ready to deal a fatal blow to the mutiny team at any time.

By that time, there were hundreds of thousands of elite Japs on land and the First Regiment at sea. It would probably not be easy for him to escape.

so,

If you don't leave now, how long will it take?

At the same time, he had been away from Jinling for more than half a year since he was ordered to carry out a secret mission in the Northeast. It was time to return to the Secret Service to make his presence felt.

Otherwise, there will inevitably be hidden dangers of losing power. For example, two bastards, Zheng Tingbing and Li Qiwu, have long wanted to replace themselves.

As the war between China and Japan is getting closer, the position of Deputy Director of the Secret Service is of vital importance, and Zuo Zhong must hold it firmly in his hands.

"Yo Xi, sir, go early and come back early."

On the other side, Ando Teruzo finally stopped stopping him when faced with the reasons given by Zuo Shige. After all, it is human nature to care about loved ones.

However, considering the chaotic security situation in Tokyo and the fact that Okamoto was an unarmed scholar, he arranged for two veterans to accompany him throughout the journey.

Zuo Zhong did not refuse this time and readily accepted the other party's kindness. His behavior and character design did not allow him to refuse.

After greeting the core members of the mutiny one by one, he quickly disappeared into the streets of Tokyo with his two bodyguards before losing contact.

Three hours later.

Prince Yongren slowly opened his eyes, stood up and stretched, and then sneezed several times in a row, feeling chilled all over.

He didn't pay too much attention to it. This was not a palace after all. He slept on a sofa and covered himself with thin bedding. It was normal to get a little cold.

When the soldiers outside the door heard the sound, they quickly opened the door and came in. They added more firewood to the burning fireplace, and the room quickly became warm.

"Hoo~"

Yong Ren rubbed his hands, put on his coat with the help of the soldiers, and listened to the gunshots outside and asked: "Why hasn't the palace city been captured yet?

Let Mr. Okamoto come to see me immediately, and call Captain Ando and the others as well. I have an important matter to discuss with them."

As for this new year's name, the more he thought about it, the more satisfied he became, and decided not to wait for the death of the false emperor, but to have someone display the flag first to show his legitimacy.

The Showa Restoration was changed to the Guangzhi Reform, which sounded a lot more pleasant to the ears. This would be the beginning of the glory and strength of the Japanese Empire.

"Your Majesty."

The soldier lowered his head and replied cautiously: "The enemy relied on the palace wall to resist stubbornly, and the attacking citizens suffered heavy casualties.

Currently, we have occupied a building in the southeast corner of the palace, and Captain Ando is organizing elite troops to prepare to personally lead the assault.

As for Mr. Okamoto, he went home to pick up his wife a few hours ago and will be back soon. Your Excellency, the squadron commander, specially sent a guard."

"Xinxi, Mr. Ando is a true warrior of the empire. Don't disturb him yet. Ache~ Pour a cup of hot tea for me, go ahead."

Yong Ren sneezed again while he was talking, and his body began to shiver unconsciously. A cold air came out of his bones and spread throughout his body.

He touched his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that it was not too hot. Now was not the time to be sick, so nothing happened.

It happened that the soldier brought a cup of hot water to him, and he took it and drank most of it. The warm feeling made Yong Ren instantly refreshed.

It didn't take long for his chest and back to be wet with sweat, and his originally groggy head became much more awake after sweating.

Putting the cup on the table, Yong Ren began to think about how to deal with his brother Zhaohe's family and how to reward Conglong's meritorious officials.

"Crunch~Crunch~"

Suddenly, a sharp friction sound came from a distance, the water cup trembled slightly, and the clear water in the cup also made little ripples.

Yong Ren couldn't help but look puzzled. He quickly stood up and went to the window to open it. He picked up the telescope and looked in the direction of the sound.

I saw three Type 89 tanks slowly approaching from outside the blockade, and the 37mm cannon on the turret kept turning and pointed at nearby buildings.

Next to the chariot was a group of heavily armed soldiers distributed in battle formation on both sides of the street, with several holding large banners.

Where did the chariot come from?

Where did the army come from?

Yong Ren's eyes widened, and he finally saw the content of the banner clearly: "Order to put down your weapons, and forget the past" were clearly visible in front of his eyes.

In addition, the military flag on the rear of the tank clearly says "Yodo" troops, which indicates that the opponent is the Fourth Division stationed in the Osaka area.

As if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him, he put down the telescope blankly, wondering why King Qin's troops reacted so quickly.

Osaka is a certain distance from Tokyo. Even if they set off immediately after receiving the order, it will take at least two to three days on the road.

War is no child's play. The transportation, loading and unloading process of materials is very cumbersome. The Fourth Division cannot drive tanks from Osaka to Tokyo.

"Boom~Boom~"

Before Yong Ren could think about it, the loud noise of naval guns could be heard faintly in Tokyo Bay, which was obviously a warning to the mutinous troops not to act rashly.

Damn the Navy Red Deer, he knows why the Fourth Division is so fast, it must be heading to Tokyo from the sea on a warship.

Only in this way could they arrive in just one day. No wonder the mutinous troops found nothing at the guard post outside the city.

He gritted his teeth and looked at the rapidly advancing counter-insurgency troops, feeling extremely desperate. He still lost, and he lost so miserably.

A group of mobs and mutiny troops equipped only with light weapons and infantry artillery were unable to withstand the attack of the well-equipped Fourth Division.

"Your Highness! Please retreat quickly!"

Ando Teruzo broke into the room and shouted excitedly to Yong Ren. When he learned that the counter-rebellion troops had tanks, Ando rushed over immediately.

The First Division had tanks and anti-tank troops, but they did not participate in the mutiny. The only plan for now was to evacuate first to prepare for the aftermath.

For example, if they join forces with the Eighth Division to confront the Locust troops, when the people understand the true nature of the Locusts, they will definitely win.

"retreat?"

Yong Ren repeated it in his mouth, turned his head and smiled bitterly: "Is retreat really useful? Showa and the Zaibatsu will never let us go.

Forget it, don't commit any more crimes, let everyone put down their weapons. I bear all the responsibilities alone and have nothing to do with ordinary soldiers.

As for you, take off your military uniforms and run for your own lives. You can go to China, the United States, or Europe. What they want to capture is me.

Alas, if I could have gotten to know Mr. Ando and Mr. Okamoto earlier and made all preparations before taking action, the result would never be what it is today.

It's time and fate, that's all. It's my honor to fight alongside you all. You can leave and leave me alone."

At the last moment, Yong Ren took on all the responsibilities as a bachelor, but going abroad was not easy, especially at this time.

"Your Highness...I..."

Ando Teruzo opened his mouth to continue persuading, but when Yong Ren waved his hand, he had no choice but to walk out of the Sanno Hotel door in a daze.

He looked up and saw that the counter-rebellion troops had surrounded the area, with tanks and machine guns aimed at the pale-faced mutiny team.

It was indeed time to end, and Teruzo Ando called the sergeant commander to assemble the team. After everyone was assembled, he announced the disbandment with tears in his eyes.

"Your mission has been completed."

"Please allow me to salute you for your courage and loyalty, and thank you for your service to the Empire."

"Sayoulala!"

After speaking, he performed a military salute, and then the soldiers returned the salute uniformly, and led by the sergeant sergeant before leaving singing the song of the Showa Restoration.
