On February 20, Lin Junxiong stood at the bow of the boat, looking at Iriomote Island, which has only a vague outline, thinking about the mischievous old eagle, thinking about the palm trees on the island, and missing his relatives who had been absent for months, Eun-hee, who was almost four years old, and Xiao Yueyi, who was half a year old.

Fang Yun and the others, who came here for the first time behind them, were already excited when they looked at the blue sky and white clouds, "It's so beautiful, full of tranquility, fresh air, and comfortable temperature."

"Yes, if there is no war, this will be heaven!" Li Shengjie couldn't help but admire.

Iriomote Island is getting closer and closer, and the thick smoke on the island makes Lin Junxiong frightened, what happened? This is the location of the Northern Military Region of Xiangbeigen, and it is one of Shang Tianen's largest rear base camps, could it be that the devils found this place and attacked here?

Lin Junxiong's heart has not been able to let go, along the middle of the river all the way into the depths, a patrol boat found Lin Junxiong and the others, after some inquiry, they took the lead back to the camp to report the news, and Lin Junxiong didn't even have time to ask what happened to Iriomote Island.

The boat slowly approached the shore, and the eyes were full of people shaking the corpses of their loved ones, many bombed-out houses, charred trees everywhere, and thick smoke billowing from the Komi Mountain in the distance.

"Little Go, what's going on Iriomote Island?" Lin Junxiong saw Shang Tianen, Lin Jiajun, Xiang Beigen and others lining up to welcome him, he was shocked by the scene in front of him, and lost the joy of gathering with old friends, so he grabbed Shang Tianen and asked anxiously.

"Big brother, three days ago, the devil didn't know where to transfer the plane, and began to bomb Iriomote Island indiscriminately, which lasted until this morning, with nearly 3,000 casualties on the island and 2,000 casualties among the troops." Shang Tianen replied with hatred in his eyes.

"Iriomote Island is the largest rear base in the Ryukyus, I believe that Hokane must have laid out a lot of defenses, and it should be impossible for the news here to leak out, and Iriomote Island is full of forests, and it is impossible for the devils to find the bombing target so accurately and cause such a large number of casualties." Lin Junxiong analyzed suspiciously.

"Big brother, I also wonder, I haven't been found by the devil for several years, why does the devil know so accurately this time, I suspect that there are Japanese spies at the top of the Northern Military Region." Shang Tianen's eyes were red, and he could see that he must have been thinking about this matter for the past few days.

"Xiao Wu, cheer up, things will always come to an end, and I don't think it's necessarily that there are spies at the top of the Northern Military Region, maybe it has something to do with the people who came to Iriomote Island recently." Lin Junxiong pondered for a while and said, thinking about his relatives in his heart, he couldn't help but ask, "Little Wu, what about your sister-in-law?" Are there any dangers? ”

Shang Tianen squeezed out a smile and said, "Big brother, don't worry, sister-in-law, they and the people who followed you went to the God of War Island between Iriomote Island and Ishigaki Island on the first day of the New Year." ”

"Isle of War?" Lin Junxiong didn't seem to have this memory in his memory, and asked in surprise.

"It's your brothers who gave the name to a nameless island over there, and I guess it won't be a few days before some houses can be built over there."

Lin Junxiong breathed a sigh of relief, but looked at the miserable situation around Iriomote Island, and said with some sadness and indignation: "Damn devil, it's really hateful, good Iriomote Island was bombed like this, Xiao Wu, let's go all the way to see the situation." ”

Lin Junxiong and Shang Tianen and his entourage walked all the way, looking at the tragic situation everywhere, they couldn't stop to comfort the people, and when they arrived at a gathering place, I don't know who said excitedly: "Look, that's the leader's eldest brother, Lin Junxiong, the god of northern war, I saw him ten years ago." ”

The sad crowd boiled all at once, and in the Ryukyus, under Shang Tianen's deliberate creation, Lin Junxiong's status in the hearts of the Ryukyu people was on a par with Shang Tianen.

"Northern God of War, you want to avenge our relatives!"

"Northern God of War, you have to help our Ryukyuan people get rid of the little devils!"

“”

The mournful pleas in the crowd made Lin Junxiong feel uncomfortable for a while, he just wanted to live a peaceful life with his family and brothers when he came to Ryukyu, and finally he could enjoy the tranquility, looking at countless pairs of expectant eyes, Lin Junxiong couldn't bear to refuse, and it was not good to agree for a while.

He turned around with some embarrassment, but found a pair of resentful eyes in the third row behind Shang Tianen, and when the man saw Lin Junxiong looking over, he panicked for a moment and immediately touched into his arms. Sensing this man's actions, Lin Junxiong rushed over with an arrow and restrained the man before he could pull out his gun.

"Shang Hui, what are you going to do?" Shang Tianen walked over and yelled loudly.

"Brother Tianen, this Lin Junxiong is a disaster star, he will bring Ryukyu into a catastrophe, hurry up and drive him away!" Shang Hui said strange words.

Shang Tianen's face sank, "For the sake of you being my second uncle's son, I'll give you a chance, who made you spread rumors like this!" ”

"It's my own opinion that he will bring most of the Japanese forces to fight the Ryukyus, Brother Tianen, it's not cost-effective to let countless Ryukyuan people fall into the war for him."

Shang Tianen said coldly: "Even if the eldest brother doesn't come to Ryukyu, when the Japanese free up their hands, will Ryukyu still be peaceful?" The Ryukyuan people have been enslaved for decades, and only by war can they exchange peace and freedom! I'll give you one last chance to say, what conspiracy do you have, is the second uncle also involved? ”

Shang Tianen pointed a gun at Shang Hui's head and made a gesture to pull the trigger, Shang Hui hurriedly said: "Brother Tianen, don't be obsessed anymore, the Japanese said that as long as you take the People's Revolutionary Army to join the Japanese, they will withdraw from the Ryukyus, return the Ryukyus to the Ryukyu people, and will also provide us with armed protection." ”

"Shang Hui, I think you are going to be a loyal lackey of the Japanese, the Japanese can't spare their hands now, when they ease up, Ryukyu will be free, you are too naïve, protect by force, isn't that the same to continue to enslave the Ryukyu people? Has your father Shang Ying also become a lackey of the Japanese, I can't spare him when I go back! Shang Tianen was so angry that he gritted his teeth, there were still pro-Japanese scum in his family.

"Haha Shang Tianen, if it weren't for my father's softness, you would have died a long time ago. If you want to arrest him, he and my eldest brother are probably in Japan now. Sooner or later the Ryukyus are my father's, and sooner or later you and your People's Revolutionary Army will be crushed by the warriors of the Great Japanese Empire. Shang Hui seemed to know that he would not be able to escape this fate, and instead of his previous fear, he laughed out loud.

"Shang Hui, my eldest brother arranged for someone to secretly rescue you back, it turns out that you are such a white-eyed wolf, I Shang Tian treats you very well, why do you want to do this?"

"Haha Shang Tianen, you treat us well? If you confine the rescued Shang family in Guishan Village, and do not arrange for us to serve in the People's Party, you do not trust us, you have fallen into the way of Lin Junxiong, and you have taken in this hated enemy of Japan, and you will bring disaster to the Ryukyus. It's a pity that this time I escaped the bombing of the planes of the Great Japanese Empire, but it's a pity that my father arranged it. “

Shang Tianen put a gun to his head and yelled, "The tragedy that happened on Iriomote Island was actually arranged by you and your father? Hateful! ”

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and Shang Hui fell in a pool of blood.

"Big brother, I'm sorry, it's all my negligence, so many people on Iriomote Island were killed under the bombing of the Japanese, and I almost put you in danger." Shang Tianen said guiltily.

"Tianen, don't blame yourself too much, you really know people and faces, you have to be more cautious in the future, and now you are shouldering the heavy responsibility of the future of Ryukyu!" Lin Junxiong tightened his hands on Shang Tianen's arms.

"This Shang Ying father and son, I observed some talents, and I also wanted to join them in the People's Party, this time I heard that the eldest brother was coming back soon, so I rushed over to greet him, but I didn't expect this guy to harbor such evil intentions."

"We had planned to arrive three days ago, but when we passed by Hateruma Island, we encountered a violent storm and accidentally injured our boat, so we stopped there for three days, and we were able to avoid it." Lin Junxiong secretly rejoiced, it is said that this time the Japanese plane bombed some key positions, it should be the coordinates provided by Shang Ying and his son, thinking of Shang Ying, Lin Junxiong suddenly asked nervously: "Tianen, do Shang Ying and his son know other important information, such as the Yuquan Cave base and Komatsu Tomoya and Li Shanshui?" ”

"Big brother, this is the first time I've brought them out, I originally wanted to investigate, and they didn't know anything else about important information."

Lin Junxiong breathed a sigh of relief, this is okay, it will not cause many casualties to the backbone of the Ryukyu People's Party and the Revolutionary Army, "Heavenly grace, quickly let the people of Kameyama Village evacuate, I don't know if it will be too late." ”

"Big brother, I arranged for Lin Jialiu to be in charge over there, if there is any movement, he will immediately organize the people of Guishan Village to retreat, in fact, Shang Ying and they don't know that the headquarters of the People's Party is located in Guishan Village."

Lin Junxiong still looked like Shang Tianen wanted to say something, and couldn't help asking, "Tianen, is there something tricky?" You and my brother don't be polite, look at you like that. ”

Shang Tianen sighed: "Big brother, under my leadership in the past few years, no progress has been made in the Ryukyu Anti-Japanese War, I know that you will return here one day sooner or later, you are the hope of Ryukyu independence and freedom, so I have not been the eldest brother to build momentum, and asked the eldest brother to take over the banner of Ryukyu independence and freedom, Xiao Wu is still more willing to be the eldest brother's follower." ”

Lin Junxiong glared at Shang Tianen fiercely, and said angrily, "Do you think I came back to rob you or something?" You are a descendant of the Ryukyu royal family, and the people of the Ryukyus were enslaved by Japan at the hands of your ancestors, and you must bravely take up the burden of reviving the Ryukyus. No matter how crooked, I hid on the Isle of War to enjoy the blessings of the Ryukyu and no longer paid attention to the affairs of the Ryukyus. ”

Shang Tianen was very disappointed at first, but after carefully reviewing Lin Junxiong's words, he couldn't help but be surprised: "What does the eldest brother mean that as long as I don't force you, you will still take care of Ryukyu affairs?" ”

Lin Junxiong gave him a blank look, "You are my brother, how can I not help you, do you really think that I came to the war-torn Ryukyu to enjoy Qingfu?" It's just that your sister-in-law doesn't want me to fight and kill anymore, but my brothers may not be idle. ”

"Don't worry, eldest brother, as long as you don't encounter particularly difficult things, I won't bother you easily, it's not easy for eldest brother over the years, Xiao Wu understands."
