The eldest brother said: "When you arrive at Shimonoseki City, don't enter the city, just camp in the mountains and forests in the wild. If you can't see the messenger sent by Lord Nakatomi, you can't easily cross the Kanmon Strait. ”

Although Jushi Dedo is eager for revenge, he also knows how powerful it is. He immediately stated that he would never take any risks, and that everything would be arranged by the Nakazu Kamazu.

When he was in Fujiwara-kyo, many people in the Tang Dynasty mission had seen Nakatomi Kamazuku, and if he entered Kumamoto Castle, there was a high chance that he would be recognized, and the risk was extremely high. However, he now lives outside Kumamoto Castle, and no news is available. At this juncture that decided the life and death of Yamato Province, he chose to venture into Kumamoto Castle.

In the face of Nakazu's strong request, Monobe Kazuki had no choice but to let him blend into his own guards at night and enter Monobe Kazuki's palace.

Nakatomi Kamazu brought with him two cronies, these two people had not met with the Tang Dynasty mission when they were in Fujiwara-kyo, and they were fresh faces. It was really inconvenient for Zhongchen Kazuzu to act by himself, so he arranged for these two people to go out to find out the news.

The first thing Nakatomi Kamazu wanted to know was to determine whether the 20,000 Tang troops had really left Kumamoto Castle, so two of his cronies, under the guidance of someone sent by Monobe Kazuki, first went to the Baekje military camp in the south of the city.

Two cronies pretended to pass by the gate of the barracks and deliberately approached the sentry at the gate.

"Stop! Coming people stop. This is an important place for the barracks, and the idle people can't wait to get close, so they quickly walk away. Several sentries warily brandished knives and guns as they drove away the two cronies.

The sentries spoke Baekje, and the two cronies listened very well, so they went back and reported to the middle minister.

Nakazu Kamazu is a very serious person, and he is still a little uneasy, so he explained to the two cronies.

At noon, two cronies went to a restaurant near the Baekje military camp and saw some Baekje officers and soldiers drinking and chatting there, all of them talking in Baekje.

The two cronies remembered that the Zhongchen Lian Zu had told them to be careful and careful, so they went to two nearby restaurants and saw that the Baekje officers and soldiers inside were all speaking Baekje. Now they determined that the Baekje military camp was inhabited by real Baekje officers and soldiers.

After repeated confirmations, Zhongchen Lianzu finally believed that the Tang army had been transferred out of Kyushu Island.

The Baekje people have already left Kyushu Island, and now they are in the Baekje military camp with the 20,000 Tang troops. Where did the Baekje sentries at the gate of the barracks and the Baekje people who appeared on the streets come from?

It turned out that these people were all arranged by Wang Xuance, in order to avoid Zhongzhong Minister Lianzu finding out that the Tang Dynasty and Baekje people had dropped their bags, Wang Xuance specially transferred 500 Goguryeo people from General Kim Yizhe and asked them to change into the military uniforms of Baekje people, Goguryeo people and Baekje people The language is the same, in order to avoid revealing flaws, Wang Xuance explained to them not to mention the place name of Goguryeo when speaking, so he deceived the two cronies of Zhongchen Lianzu.

The Marshal's Mansion of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

Wang Xuance said: "General Jin Yizhe has called, and his scouts have received news that the main force of the Japanese slave country has now reached the north of Xiaguan City. ”

Hearing the news, everyone was very excited, Li You said: "Our long-awaited guests are finally here, so let's set up a big meal and prepare to welcome them!" ”

The war was approaching, and the marshal's mansion was tense and busy, and all departments of the Tang Army began to urgently mobilize.

However, two days passed, but there was no movement, and he did not send his cronies to contact the main force of the Japanese slaves.

The Marshal's Mansion of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

Monobe Kazuki said depressedly: "Your Highness, I don't know how this Zhongchen Lianzu did it?" This guy is so calm that he hasn't moved until now. ”

Wang Xuance said: "Yes! Lord, it's not a way to go on like this! Those two of his cronies wander around Kumamoto Castle every day, and if they continue like this, I'm afraid they will discover our secrets. ”

Li You said: "He is not in a hurry, someone must be in a hurry." General Niu, you just urge them. ”

Niu Jinda understood what Li You meant, and he said: "Yes, Your Highness, the minister will go and order all the departments of the Tang Army to launch a fierce attack on the Japanese slaves. ”

Kyo Fujiwara.

The empress and others got the news that the various departments of the Tang army had stepped up their attacks on the army of the Japanese slave country, and the empress said worriedly: "Now that the main forces of our country have been transferred to Xiaguan, the Tang army is attacking so fiercely, I am afraid that our army will not be able to resist it, you tell the Zhongchen Lianzu to quickly implement the cherry blossom plan." ”

The eldest brother said, "Yes, I will send a telegram to the Ministry of Monobu Ichiki, urging them to implement the Sakura Plan as soon as possible." ”

Palace.

Kazuki Monobe took the telegram sent by the eldest brother of the middle brother, the prince, and said to the middle minister: "Lord Zhongchen, the Tang army has now launched a fierce attack on our country, and His Royal Highness the crown prince asks you to implement the cherry blossom plan as soon as possible. ”

After reading the telegram, Zhongchen Lianzu pondered for a long time. Finally nodded and said, "Okay then."

Monobe Kazuki breathed a sigh of relief when he heard him say this, thinking that it had finally begun. Who would have thought that the Zhongchen Lianzu suddenly said: "Your Excellency, please bring my personal entourage into the Grand Marshal's Mansion tomorrow." ”

Kazuki Monobe asked, "What is this for?" ”

Zhongchen Lianzu said: "I must confirm that Li You is in the Great Marshal's Mansion. ”

Kazuki Monobe said a little unhappily, "Didn't I tell you?" He's in the marshal's mansion, can't you trust me? ”

Zhongchen Lian Zu said: "Your Excellency, the stakes are very high, I must see Li You in it with my own eyes, and I ask Your Excellency the Minister for forgiveness." ”

Kazuki said: "The guards of the Great Marshal's Mansion all know my personal entourage, and if I suddenly bring a stranger, I'm afraid it will arouse their suspicion."

Nakazu Kamakazu looked at Monobe Kazuki and said, "Your Excellency, I believe you will definitely have a way." ”

Monobe Kazuki said helplessly: "Okay then, I'll find a way to take them in." ”

The Marshal's Mansion of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

Wang Xuance reported to Li You about Zhongchen Kamazu's request to Monobe Kazuki, and Li You smiled and said: "Zhongchen Kamazu is really careful in doing things, okay, since he wants to see me, then I will let him see it generously." ”

Pei Dilan said: "I'll play this play with you tomorrow." ”

The Marshal's Mansion of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

The next morning, Monobe Kazuki came to the gate of the Great Marshal's Mansion with a few entourages, and the Flying Tigers detachment guarding was looking at Monobe Kazuki and others, pointing to the two faces behind him and saying, "Who are these two people?" What do they have in their hands? ”

Two of Monobe Kazuki's entourage were holding two boxes in their hands, and it was the two of them that the guard asked. They are the two cronies of the middle minister and Kamakazu pretending to be.
