Chapter 99 - War Preparing Night
The night was dark and gloomy. A wisp of light clouds covered the moon. Somehow, it turned the moon blood-red. Everyone who saw it felt an indescribable unease in their hearts.
Kiyoshi Yamamoto held his famous one meter three iron spear as he sat on a rock and looked at the moon. The soldiers beside him were helping him tie up his armor. This was a type of Southern Barbaric Centipede, and there were a few small depressions on the thin steel chest plate of the armor. It was the mark left by the Gun lead bullet, showing how high the protective power of this armor was.
”Is it great to have a gun? ”I have the Southern Barbaric Nether Domain, the place with the highest defensive power in the Japan. I want to kill all you loathsome villagers with my own hands …” Just as Kiyoshi Yamamoto was muttering fiercely, her favorite Xiao Xing said gently, ”Master, can we really skip birch elder? Aren't you afraid of punishment? ”
”Eight!” Kiyoshi Yamamoto raised his hand and wanted to hit his, but in the end, when he saw Xiao Xing's pretty face, he couldn't bear to do it anymore, ”You must remember, we are warriors, brave warriors who guard the path of warriors. We must not be afraid when facing enemies … Lord Hua Shan has his own considerations and difficulties. As his subordinate, we have to share them … ”
If Xiao Letian could hear his words, he would definitely be furious. In the recent history of Japan, there were simply too many brainless military officers like him. Their fanatical minds were filled with bean curd, without any sense of overall situation or strategy. Their hearts were only filled with fanaticism towards war.
To put it in a better light, these low-level warriors were dedicated to the path of kung fu. In these military adventures, if they were able to defeat their superiors, they would not hesitate to reward them. However, if they failed, it wouldn't matter. These leading fighters could just cut off their chests. In any case, their pursuit of the path of martial arts was death.
In the history of Xiao Letian's transmigration, the shocking events that happened in China and abroad was actually just a military adventure for the Japanese young and able-bodied officers, it was just a gamble. A few aides and lieutenants secretly formed a line and actually brought 10,000 soldiers straight to Shen Yang's northern camp. However, there wasn't even a general in the entire operation.
In the hearts of these middle and lower ranking officers, their thoughts were extremely similar to Kiyoshi Yamamoto's. If they won, they would naturally become great heroes, and if they lost, they would just die.
What a ridiculous history. After the events that happened in September 18 broke out, the first to be shocked was actually the Japanese government in Tokyo. All the high-ranking politicians were dumbfounded. For a government to be unable to control the army and not even have the basic right to know about the situation, it could be seen how extraordinary these warriors were.
Just as Kiyoshi Yamamoto was preparing for tonight's events, the place was already bustling with noise and excitement. Xiao Letian had already expropriated an entire street of rooms at a hefty price, and the boss and the servants had all been expelled. Other than Qian Xia and his sister and Yepingtai, there was not a single Japanese left.
All the sliding doors in the room were opened, and all the rooms connected each other, forming a huge living room. Xiao Letian sat in the middle and was giving orders to everyone present.
”Advisor, all 245 Naha Harbor s have been gathered. They are all waiting for your orders …” Speaking to this point, Liang Kun sneaked a glance at the Winged King Shida Kai from the corner of his eyes, and his eyes filled with suspicion.
Xiao Letian's heart was thumping nonstop, he was a little confused by the situation. Xiao Letian was just an advisor under the command of the Winged King Shida Kai, but why did he sit in the main seat and give orders while the Prince sat under him? This was too unreasonable.
How could Shi Dakai not understand what Liang Kun was thinking? He glared fiercely at with a glint in his eyes and was so shocked that Liang Kun started to sweat profusely.
Liang Kun hurriedly kowtowed and said, ”Military Advisor, I finally admire you today. Previously, when the Chinese Shang asked for advice from me, I was wrong to say that you wouldn't interfere too deeply, but I was wrong. ”Old Liang, I'll kowtow and apologize to you …”
Xiao Letian only trusted half of these Heaven veterans s. The older soldiers of the Taibai Top had all heard of his《 Journey to the West s》 burning the imperial mausoleum with him, including the chaos at the Tanggu Port. These older soldiers had gradually accepted Xiao Letian's leadership, and with Shi Dakai's conscious support, he had established Xiao Letian's authority.
Ever since Xiao Letian set fire to the Yongzheng's Tomb, Shi Dakai and his old brothers had secretly met and reached an agreement. From today onwards, the commanding authority would completely be given to Xiao Letian, while the Winged King Shida Kai would only be a nominal commander of the Heaven veterans.
Xiao Letian was at ease with her brothers in the Taibai Top, but he still used them cautiously towards the other Heaven veterans s who were scattered across the masses. Xiao Letian could feel the hesitation in his eyes, but Xiao Letian did not care, he had already slowly started to support his own direct line of descent, and his reliance on the Heaven veterans had decreased by a lot.
The musket team represented by Luo Huo was trained by Xiao Letian himself. This had nothing to do with the Sky Nation, the Green Forest Special Forces represented by Xiang Shaolong were also Xiao Letian's direct descendants. In addition, with Fan Lian as the head of the merchant group, they were Xiao Letian's loyal purse.
He was rich and had a gun, so all he needed now was time to get stronger. Furthermore, Xiao Letian was extremely confident, with his own abilities, if he could not convince Liang Kun, then he might as well teleport back and continue on from 9 to 5.
Xiao Letian nodded his head: ”General Liang, you get up first. No matter what doubts you have in your heart, after the war, you can be honest with me, but the war is about to start, I hope you will remember the identity of a Chinese and fight bravely against enemies …”
Without saying a word, Liang Kun's right fist smashed towards his chest, he got up and retreated. At the same time, several soldiers had already spread out several batches of white cloth on the ground.
