”Impossible, the Hidden Fog Kid is a ninja of the Shimadzu Family, and you are the Mr. Ryoma respected by all the people of the Master of the Island. You are the negotiating ambassador, why would he want to assassinate you?” This time, not only Kiyoshi Yamamoto, but even Huashan Liyuan and all the other Japanese present were at a loss.
Xiao Letian looked at Yepingtai, then slightly bowed and walked in front of him. ”Ladies and gentlemen, as well as fellow villagers of the Japan, I can give you the answer to this question.”
”Hidden Fog Kid is not a ninja of Shimadzu Family at all. This woman had been plotted against by Tokugawa since last year. She is now the leader of New Selection Group's intelligence team. She has already sent countless reports to the capital, but Shimadzu Family has always been kept in the dark!”
”Nani!” This piece of news was too explosive. It had to be known that right now, the Tokugawa was at the brink of a civil war with the Emperor, as one was unwilling to see the Mu Clan toppled while the other was desperately trying to push the throne of the Sky Emperor.
”As a wild warrior, I was a swordsman when I traveled in the capital. I was once bewitched by the New Selection Group and I joined it for three days. ”It was these three days that I learned about the nature of this group of people. They are all lunatics who only know how to kill people, and their daily job is to search for new people and make plans to assassinate them. I think there are those who have been to the capital who don't know their names …”
”And the most abnormal thing is that this organization doesn't allow others to leave. Even if I said that I would investigate for three days before making a decision, it still isn't possible. The moment I left, I encountered an endless amount of assassination attempts. I fled towards the south, all the way until the Ryukyu did not escape their pursuit … ”
”The Ninja led by the Hidden Fog Kid had sneak attacked me before. If not for the brave Bing Tai coming to my rescue, I might have died a long time ago …” After saying that, Xiao Letian opened his mouth.
”Do you understand now? You have already become tools of the Tokugawa, and all the actions of the New Selection Group are aimed at killing your Shimadzu Family, causing this barrel of gunpowder to explode even more violently, and ultimately destroying the very foundation of your Shimadzu Family. All of you idiots have become tools in the hands of your enemies without knowing it, yet you still dare to boast shamelessly in front of me … ”
”Slaughter the city? Do you think I'm a beast like you? War should never involve innocent people, and only a trash maniac like you would kill a civilian … How the fuck do you even dare to ask me how I'm going to deal with you Japanese people? When you, bastard, killed our Chinese citizens, what did you think of? Did you ever think that you would have such a day? ”
Xiao Letian's sharp gaze that was like a knife swept across all the Japanese civilians who were kneeling on the ground. Out of the tens of thousands of people, no one dared to meet his gaze. In that moment, all of the blood in Xiao Letian's body started to boil, he seemed to see the ghosts of the countless Chinese people flying about.
”I'm not a homicidal maniac, but I'm not a good person either! From today onwards, I will give you Japanese ten days. Those who have killed the Chinese people and the Glazed sphere aboriginals will turn themselves in for death. Let me tell you all, don't let me have any thoughts of luck. If I dig you out ten days later, your father will annihilate your entire family … ”
Xiao Letian's mind was in a mess, he grabbed the sugar bowl and took another two gulps, then fiercely panted a few times before he said in a stern voice, ”From today onwards, prepare an account for me, Qi Min. Ten clan Japanese s will be in a group, ten groups will be in a single city, and ten groups will be in a single city.
”I will let you know what sit-down method is. If any of you in the first group dares to deceive me, I will kill all ten of you. If three groups in one group appeared cheating, the captain would die. ”The same thing happened. There were cheating in three parts of the same district. The district governor sat down and died …”
”I will give you ten days, hand over all the thugs who have killed Chinese and aboriginals!” ”This is your only way out. Remember, this is your only way out …”
The murderous words sent chills down the back of everyone's neck. The smart ones could see with a glance that there would not be a single fish that escaped the net, and there would even be some minor crimes or severe punishments, so even if there was a large number of grievances, it would not be impossible.
However, this method of sitting down was indeed able to protect the interests of the Japanese that did not participate in the massacre. A hundred thousand Japanese living in Nana was not disheartened by this, most people just took advantage of the chaos to pick up some property, and some people even escaped into the mountain forest to hide.
The number of people who actually killed them was probably only around a thousand. The majority of the remaining people were waving their flags and shouting.
After saying that, Xiao Letian calmed his emotions, looked at Huashan Liyuan and said calmly: ”Now we are going to talk about the remaining two thousand soldiers of your Shimadzu Family. I still have the same line, do whatever you have to do, punish them severely, and as for a soldier who obeys orders completely? ”I really have no idea how to deal with it …”
Xiao Letian was currently hesitating, he could not kill the 2000 feet in Shimadzu Family, the soldiers were just following orders, the cause and effect of the incident were not on them, although he had killed the Chinese soldiers and civilians in the war, the main sin was on the officers.
Dealing with these soldiers was more difficult than dealing with the thugs who killed them. After all, the mob was made up of loose citizens. When they started to kill, their hearts were filled with evil thoughts. These thugs wanted to kill someone, but they had to do so themselves. If he was the only one with the evil and evil reasons, there was no doubt that he would be able to kill them.
However, the army was a complicated organization that had to obey orders strictly. No matter what the soldiers thought, their actions were not something they could decide.
To put it simply, the hands of a thug were determined by the hearts of the thug, while the hands of a soldier who killed were determined by the officers. This was the reason why after successive wars, only officers were tried and the soldiers were spared.
All the officers present could hear the hesitation in Xiao Letian's words and saw the hope for the soldiers to survive. Many of the middle class officers rushed out from the crowd and knelt in front of Xiao Letian.
”We are the instigators of this incident, we must sincerely apologize!”
