Ninja? Xiao Letian's first reaction was this term, and now the figure running on the roof of the dormitory is very similar to the image of the ninja in the film and television works, but this is the person on the roof during the day who is not wearing the classic nocturnal ninja costume.

On the roof, Xiang Shaolong was competing with the ninja, and the two figures were flying between the roofs within a radius of 100 meters like raccoon cats, and the sound of hidden weapons shooting in the air was endless.

Although Xiao Letian is an absolute layman in martial arts, he can also find the difference in strength between the enemy and me after looking at it for a while. In general, Long Ye still has an overwhelming advantage, as long as the two figures intersect, it is definitely the ninja who suffers.

But then the ninja also learned to be smart, and just used his weird body to entangle Xiang Shaolong in an attempt to end the battle with a hidden weapon, but he didn't expect that the level of Long Ye's hidden weapon was also very high, and the two of them were frozen in mid-air.

Gradually, Xiao Lotian also understood some of the ghost ways of ninjutsu, the so-called ninjutsu is not mysterious, this is just a relatively clever trick. Powerful ninjas will take advantage of all kinds of blind spots and misunderstandings in people's vision, such as the angle between light and dark of buildings, and the blind spots that are dazzling at the sun, etc., to constantly flash their bodies, making you feel dizzy.

If no one tells you in advance that you have ninjas to follow, maybe you can't find ghost-like people after walking dozens of miles of mountain roads, because they are playing with your eyes, which is an experience accumulated by the ninja group for thousands of years, although they don't know the theory, but this qiē is science and not superstition.

The illusion of a ninja is fatal to an ordinary martial artist, but when he encounters an inner master like Xiang Shaolong, even if he is completely out of line, Long Ye, who is proficient in Wudang's internal skills, can lock the general direction of the enemy without his eyes close to the murderous aura, and the blinding method is completely ineffective for him.

After a quarter of an hour of fighting, the ninja had already been cut through two long cuts, although not fatal, but the blood was red and looked shocking, and the Japanese onlookers around him screamed in horror one by one.

Just when Long Ye and the ninja were entangled on the roof, the musket team led by Luo Huo and the veterans led by Xiao Hexin and Sima Yun also organized a large encirclement network on the long street, and the ninja could not escape with his wings.

"Mr. Xiao......" The ninja suddenly spoke, speaking in strange tones of Chinese, "I'm here to deliver invitations, I'm not an assassin, I'm sending invitations to Mr. on behalf of Lord Kayama......"

"Fart!" Long Ye shouted, "Why don't you go to the front door to send invitations, what are you doing sneakily crawling on the roof......?"

"Wait...... Let him come!" As soon as Xiao Letian heard that he was a messenger sent by Huashan Liyuan, he raised his hand to stop the attack of the people present, which was regarded as letting him live.

Under the coercion of thirty muskets, the ninja did not dare to be clever, and quickly knelt down and handed over the handwritten letter of Kayama Kuriogen.

The Japanese intellectuals were proficient in Chinese, and in the minds of the true aristocracy, the improved Japanese was specially prepared for the lower untouchables, and all the simplifications were only because the untouchables were too stupid, and the high nobles still preferred to write in pure Chinese.

Therefore, although many Japanese intellectuals do not speak Chinese, as long as they give him paper and pen, they can easily communicate with Chinese.

"Tonight, Huashan Liyuan wants to invite me to eat kaiseki cuisine, this grade is high enough, I don't know if it's a Hongmen banquet?" Xiao Letian read the invitation card in two eyes, and handed it to Shi Dakai casually.

The ninja's head lowered, "My family is sincerely inviting you, please don't live up to our wishes......" Xiao Lotian listened, this ninja is quite individual, "Okay, I know, you don't have the greatest respect for me if you don't fucking listen to the corner a few times...... Go back and tell Sù Liyuan that I will be there today......"

Looking at the ninja who was covering his wounds and gradually walking away, Xiao Lotian sneered and said, "This is a nation that is afraid of power but not virtuous, if you want them to respect you, you must show our strength." Damn, send an invitation to the roof?Don't teach you a lesson, I'm really a sick cat, Master Long remembers, next time there is such a ninja, you can chop a few ...... for me."

Xiao Lotian and his entourage, just arrived at Naha Port for a day, two conflicts broke out in a row, the dock taught them a hard lesson, and after lunch, they came to a duel with Japanese ninjas with light skills and hidden weapons, two battles and two wins let the entire Naha Port know the power of this group of people, many Japanese people passed by Sakura-no-yaku, and even the footsteps were three points lighter.

Back at the dormitory, Shi Dakai asked puzzledly, "Is it necessary for us to make such a big fuss?" Military advisor, you are only here to have the status of a minister of the Ryukyu Kingdom and the right to trade, is it necessary to make a mortal enmity with the Japanese?"

"Lord Wang, you don't understand, I know the Japanese nation too well, and if you want to negotiate with them, it's best to have a fight before you fight, and they will be looking for teeth all over the ground, only then will they respect you. I admit that with our little strength, it is impossible to expel the Shimazu family, and all we can do now is to deter them and let them know that we are copper peas, and that if we want to eat us, we will have to break all their teeth......"

Xiao Lotian has his own worries, no matter how arrogant he is, he can't change the gap in strength, he only brought more than 60 people, and Liang Kun has only been in Naha for more than a year, and the force under his command is only more than 200 people.

And Kayama Kurigen has 3,000 armor-armored ashigaru in his hand, and there are ten Ataka ships in the port, this kind of 2,000 stone large warship, which is already the pinnacle of Japan's domestic shipbuilding level, and each Ataku ship has ten cannons imported from the West, which is very powerful.

Not only that, but there are more than 100,000 Japanese scattered in the Ryukyus, and the number of ronins in this is not a small number, even if you choose one out of a hundred, you can select thousands of ronin samurai with high martial arts. Such a huge force is simply not something that Xiao Lotian can deal with now, and even if it is combined with the army controlled by the Ryukyu Imperial Family, it is impossible to defeat the army of the Shimazu family.

But Xiao Lotian also has his own plan, he knows very well where the flaws of the Shimazu family are, and this Ryukyu strategy test is Xiao Letian's judgment of the general trend.

In the afternoon, the ordinary soldiers hurried to rest, while Xiao Lotian and the senior commanders studied the next step behind closed doors, and no one went out except for Mike, who left everyone to visit friends.

At this time, on the east side of Naha Port, there is a very gorgeous Japanese garden on the mountainside, from which you can not only see the whole view of Naha Port, but more importantly, you can overlook Shuri Castle, where King Shotai of the Ryukyus lived.

This is the home of Kayama Kurigen in Naha, and at the back of the house is a large military camp, where more than 1,000 ashigaru are stationed, nominally to protect the interests of the Japanese in Naha, but in fact it is used to control the Ryukyu royal family. There are three military camps like this around Naha Port, and the harbor is just surrounded.

The ninja who was injured at noon was kneeling on the ground to report the information to Kayama Kurigen, who had been calm and unhappy. However, the military commander next to him, Yamamoto Kiyoshi, had a fiery temper: "Nani? was actually besieged by dozens of people? Qing Guonu still dared to use muskets? It was too presumptuous, and this kind of rude behavior must be punished......"

Yamamoto Qing knelt in front of the elder of the Birch Mountain family, "The elder of the family, please give me a hundred soldiers, I will tie up all these arrogant Qing slaves and let them kneel in front of you......"

Before he finished speaking, Inoue Takenaka next to him shook his head first, "No, absolutely not, Xiao Letian is not an ordinary Qing countryman, he is a real peerless countryman, all plans for this kind of person must be careful and careful, if you make a mistake in chess, you will lose the whole game......"

"Shut up, what about the honor of our samurai, and the glory of the Shimazu family? Don't you want it all......" Kiyoshi Yamamoto roared, and even the small tongue in his throat was clearly visible. But he didn't expect that the old man, who had been sinking like water, suddenly broke out.

"Yaga! stupid thing...... rushed up and opened his bow left and right and pumped a dozen mouths, "What do you know, do you know what the glory of the Shimazu family is? Is the strength of the Satsuma clan all dependent on war? Without rice balls, without swords and armor, what do you use to fight, Yaga ......?"

Kayama Ligen scolded and slapped him, and Yamamoto Kiyoshi was slapped with a 'Hai' in his mouth, full of respect.

After more than a dozen slaps were drawn, the corners of Yamamoto Kiyoshi's mouth were bloody, and Kayama Kuri Yuan gasped and said, "Stupid thing, do you know how severely our Shimazu family was punished as an enemy of the Tokugawa faction after the Battle of Sekigahara? Do you know how much strength we have been deprived of? And how has our Shimazu family recovered its vitality in the past two hundred years? You don't understand any of this, but you dare to accuse me of my orders here?"

Kiyoshi Yamamoto knelt on the tatami mat, his whole head sticking to it, and he was so shocked by the old tiger that he didn't dare to look up. It took a long time for Huashan to calm down, and he said to the ninja in the courtyard, "Fog Hidden Ghost, you go down to heal first, the monitoring mission for these two days will let the Fog Hidden Ghost replace you, go ......"

"Pass my order, tonight's kaiseki cuisine is of the highest level, and if you don't have enough money, you can use military spending......"

As soon as Yamamoto Kiyoshi heard that military spending was used, he almost subconsciously raised his head and was about to express his opinion, but Inoue Takenaka next to him desperately winked at him and shook his head, which made Yamamoto Kiyoshi stuff back what he wanted to say.

When Kiyoshi Yamamoto and Inoue Takenaka left the courtyard, the civil official Takenaka sighed, "Yamamoto-kun, what are you doing here? Do you know how dangerous the head of the family is now, the Satsuma Domain, the Choshu Domain, the Tosa Domain, and the Hizen Domain have secretly reached an alliance and are going to stand by the Emperor's side, and the conflict between the Tokugawa family and us has reached a critical moment that is on the verge of breaking out. At this time, do you have to give our Shimazu family a branch of the festival?"

Kiyoshi Yamamoto obviously didn't expect this, and he was stunned after hearing this, and then he bowed ninety degrees to Inoue Takenaka and thanked him, "Hai...... Thanks to Takenaka-kun for your doubts, I'm really confused, I'm really a stupid guy who should have a seppuku......"

Inoue Takenaka comforted him for a long time, and then the two slowly walked down the mountain to make all the preparations for the banquet. When they walked through a noisy alley, they didn't know that there was a fierce conflict going on in the alley, the Senxia girl of Sakura-no-yaku, whose clothes had been torn off, and a pair of white jade rabbits were shaking helplessly, surrounded by greedy eyes.
