C634 Only the enemy know you best (2/2)
Hidden Fog Kid did not move at all. She just closed her eyes and knelt on top of the tatami, allowing the blade to rest on her neck. This was a common testing method used by famous Japanese people. Although it was a cliché, it was definitely effective.
The Katana stopped at Hidden Fog Kid's neck and did not continue with its hack. Tokugawa Yoshinobu nodded, and and the blade-wielding Xiao Xing retreated one by one.
The general used a finger to poke Hidden Fog Kid's chin as he sneered, ”You have already lived in the Forbidden City of Qing, how can I trust your loyalty? Would you be willing to abandon such a bustling place? Can you still maintain your loyalty to Japan? ”
Hidden Fog Kid opened her eyes, her heart full of shame ”General, although the Qing Kingdom is good, it is not my hometown. The Forbidden City may be magnificent, but under the Qing Dynasty's 200 years of rule, it has already started to smell rotten … ”Even if it's expensive, it's still just a coffin. Why would I be envious of living in a coffin …”
”Hahaha …” Although we are small, we are still a nation. Back then, Master Guan Bai tore up the Ming Kingdom's bestowal, and we, Japan, have already independent from the hands of the Chinese … ”
The Master Guan Bai that Tokugawa Yoshinobu spoke of was the person of the Warring States Period, Feng Chenxiuji.
Feng Chenxiuji was a famous name in the War Nation of Japan, which was also known as the era of the Andes Mountains. He walked out from the common people, mixed himself up with the warriors, served Zhi Tianxinchang and became an expert in managing human relations, and after a wise rebellion, launched a transformation of the Temple of Inheritance and killed Zhi Tianxinchang, he quickly returned from the Chinese territory, defeated the wise rebel army, smoothly inherited Zhi Tianxinchang's position, gradually conquered and submitted to all the different lands, and successfully reunited Japan once more after the fall of the curtain palace.
It was he who started the famous war of aggression against Korea. In the 20th century of the year 1592, Feng Chenxiuji started an army of 200,000 to invade Korea and launched the famous Wan-Li Korean War.
In the end, Feng Chenxiuji had failed, but there was one thing that the Japanese of the future generations praised as well.
From that moment onwards, Japan no longer cared about the so-called Central Plains regime, and its dependence on the civilization of the Central Plains for a thousand years had been completely torn apart.
Ten thousand years later, although Japan claimed to be a small country, it no longer recognized itself as the Subordinate States of the Central Plains. When the Qing Dynasty was established, the Manchu would ignore the rights of the sea and would no longer care about Japan.
The ruler of Japan had already left the Central Plains civilization since thousands of years ago. Now, Tokugawa Yoshinobu secretly rejoiced when she heard Hidden Fog Kid's words.
”Come, drink this goblet of wine and I will talk with you at night. I know you still have something to say, so don't be afraid that you can pour it all out …”
Hidden Fog Kid immediately started crying. A lowly ninja like him being comforted by the general was already the biggest reward.
”General, that Xiao Letian is definitely not a normal person, his wrist is so terrifying that it cannot be described with words. Not only us, even the countries of Europe have given in, and I can also foresee that Xiao Letian has already done a lot to our Japan …”
Under the Hidden Fog Kid's description, the image of a powerful Prime Minister appeared before the general. This devilish figure could easily see through people's hearts, and could also accurately judge the situation. What was even more terrifying was that this person was extremely calm, just like a vicious wolf.
”Xiao Letian never cared about his reputation, he didn't even ask for the official positions bestowed to him by the Great Qing, other people's dreams were like grass in his eyes, until now, he has only taken on the title of Prime Minister of the Ryukyu, and fought against all the other nations …”
”And his new army, obviously he can already raise a hundred thousand army, but he refused to expand it. The core of the new army only has about four thousand soldiers, and there are only about ten thousand soldiers assisting them. Why doesn't he expand his new army? ”If we had that kind of wealth, we would have probably raised an army of 100,000 or even 200,000 long ago …”
No wonder everyone said that the enemy understood you the best, how could Hidden Fog Kid's analysis of Xiao Letian's depth be so accurate.
”Sly, calm, adept at bewitching people and judging the situation... This terrifying man is too pragmatic. All he wants is manhood, and no face at all. Just by looking at his military system, you can see that he actually has a 100% literacy rate! ”
”What he's raising is a military officer regiment! He used an extremely small amount of manpower to numb Da Qing and Westerners, so that they couldn't feel any danger when Xiao Letian was trying to nip on them. He even thought that he could control the situation … ”
”Isn't Qing Dynasty like this? He had fantasized over and over again about how he would be able to defeat Xiao Letian, and had been tempted by the numbers of his troops that Xiao Letian had purposely created. ”It was just a terrible defeat, and in the end, it was even the capital that was lost …”
”Master General, that Sakamoto Ryoma accepted Xiao Letian's secret blood exchange technique, his blood was already flowing through his veins, and Sakamoto Ryoma's Sea Aid Society has now become the largest arms consortium in South Japan. Other than Xiao Letian's help, there is no other possibility … ”
”Lord General, Xiao Letian's devil hands have already reached Japan, we need to prepare for the worst case scenario. If we allow the new troops to set foot on this island, then our country will be destroyed!”
