Chapter 242: "Ghost Animals" and "Lackeys"
Those warriors were accustomed to die proudly with their heads held high, or, humbly, under the iron hoof. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The cold light of the broken knife pierced his eyes.
The hard-hearted old men loyal to the old territories may cut their wrists and write down the last history of the samurai in blood, and then the words will be reduced to ashes in the raging fire.
History doesn't need losers to write.
Japan is facing a sea change!
Yanagihara looked into the distance through the darkness, and the rekindled light burned violently in his eyes.
He gritted the words between his teeth one by one: "A new era is coming!" ”
At this time, a voice seemed to ask him: "New era...... Is there an era of peace without war? …… Just like what is depicted in "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring"? ……”
"Nope! Where there is life, there will be war. This world does not need a paradise, it is absolutely harmonious, so there will be no progress. It will decay in place until it destroys itself. The war will continue, on an unprecedented scale, and it will be a war for the whole world. Everything that decays will be destroyed, and we will give birth to new worlds from the ruins! ”
He muttered, he didn't know what he was talking about, but there was a magic to it.
"We will inaugurate this era, and history will remember my name!" He said, "I am a pioneer and forge ahead of this era!" ”
Yanagihara Maemitsu woke up suddenly, he touched his neck that still had a residual feeling of pain, it was smooth and smooth, and there was no wound, but Yanagihara Maemitsu still felt a lot of sticky and wet liquid, and he put his hand in front of his eyes in horror to look at it.
Fortunately, it's sweat, not blood.
Yanagihara put his hand down and let out a long breath. He got up from his bed and paced the room again.
While pacing, he thought, this is how he came over these three months.
These days, he thinks about it much, much.
And all of this points to one conclusion.
That is: you can't start a war with the Qing State at this time!
Yanagihara Maemitsu was thinking about how to stop the reckless actions of those in the government who were eager to expand externally, when suddenly there was a rush of footsteps outside.
Yanagihara Maemitsu looked up and saw the door open, a team of servants came in and began to clean the room, and a Chinese soldier with several rifles on his back came to Yanagihara Maemitsu.
"Mr. Yanagihara! Come with us! The general manager glanced at Yanagihara Maeko and said in an arrogant voice.
"Where are you taking me?" Yanagihara asked vigilantly.
"To the docks, of course!" The general yin and yang said angrily, "You should go back today?" ”
"Where are you going?" Yanagihara Maemitsu was stunned.
"Where did it go back and forth, of course! Why, dare to love Mr. Yanagihara still live here? The general said impatiently.
"So, Lord Lin is back?" Yanagihara Maemitsu understood and immediately asked.
"Yes! Lord Lin is back, and the people who were detained on your side are coming back too! "Mr. Yanagihara can go on the road with peace of mind this time!" It's good to go back! ”
Liu Yuan Qianguang was shocked in his heart, but he knew that it was useless to talk too much with the one in front of him, and he couldn't know too many things, and everything still had to be seen by Lin Yizhe.
"Before I go back, can I meet Master Lin?" Yanagihara asked again.
"Your Excellency is at the docks right now! You can see it! "Put the general way.
"Alright, please take me there." Yanagihara Maemitsu nodded.
"Mr. Yanagihara, let's see if there is anything left behind, saving time to run back and forth, delaying the return trip." He looked at Yanagihara Maeko and said.
Yanagihara Maemitsu thought quickly for a moment, and subconsciously touched his pocket.
The most important notebooks, pencils, and silver-shelled pocket watches were in his pockets, and since he was locked here, everything but his clothes and contents in his pockets have been confiscated. He really doesn't have anything left here.
"No, let's go." Yanagihara Maekomichi.
The general nodded, and two Chinese soldiers with guns on their backs immediately stood behind Yanagihara Maemitsu, escorted him out of the pavilion, got into a carriage, and then went straight to the docks.
When they arrived at the dock, Yanagihara Maemitsu got out of the carriage and found that Shiki Kayama, Mizuno and the rest of the expedition were already at the dock.
It may be that he was tortured by the prisoners in the black cell, and the birakama Shiki in front of him had a yellow complexion, a scruffy beard, his hair was unkempt, his face seemed to be injured, and the clothes on his body were also torn, and there was an unpleasant smell all over his body, which could be smelled from a distance when the sea breeze blew.
Huashan Shiki saw Yanagihara Qianguang walking steadily, still as if he had just set off from Fuzhou, knowing that he had been treated favorably by Lin Yizhe during his detention for more than three months, and his eyes couldn't help but be full of disdain.
Yanagihara Maemitsu came to everyone and saw that although Mizuno and the others were not as strong as ever, they were all neatly dressed, and there was no sign of abuse, but they looked a little haggard.
Only Kayama Shiki, who is alive and well, is a prisoner who has just been released from prison.
Yanagihara Maemitsu ignored Shikiri's disdainful gaze, but after a brief greeting with the others, he walked straight to Hayashi Yoshizhe, who was standing on the pier and looking at a cruiser.
At this time, the general who escorted him to the dock whispered something to Lin Yizhe, and Yanagihara Qianguang vaguely heard the sentence "The things assigned by the adults are done" in the general words, and he couldn't help but feel alert, he looked at Lin Yizhe and saw a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.
That's a laugh that plays with people in the palm of their hands!
Seeing Yanagihara Qianguang coming over, the general manager said goodbye to Lin Yizhe, Lin Yizhe nodded, and the general manager trotted away.
"Lord Lin, let's meet again." Yanagihara Maemitsu came to Lin Yizhe, bowed to Lin Yizhe, and said with a smile.
"Mr. Yanagihara, are you still used to living in Taiwan these days?" Lin Yizhe asked with a pretended concern, "I specially arranged for someone to take special care of Mr. Yanagihara, and if Mr. Yanagihara is not satisfied, you can tell me." ”
"No, no, they were very nice to me, thank you very much for the special arrangement." Yanagihara Maemitsu said, his words changed, "It's just...... It's inevitable that I've stayed for a long time and wasted my adult's food, hahahaha. ”
"Alas! I originally wanted to send Mr. Yanagihara back to Japan as soon as possible. As a result, I never thought that this would enter the fan world, and I went for several months, and I almost didn't come out, hehe. Lin Yizhe said with a smile, "Fortunately, with the protection of the emperor, not only did I come out safely, but I also found the four missing boat people in your country." This is worthy of Mr. Yanagihara's trust, and it is not in vain. ”
Lin Yizhe said, pointing to the four Japanese wearing Qing-style clothes behind him and said, "Mr. Yanagihara came just in time, so I will ask Lord Yanagihara to bring them back to my country together." ”
"This is the name list of the four people, please take a look at Mr. Yanagihara." Lin Yizhe handed a form to Yanagihara Maemitsu.
Yanagihara Maemitsu looked at the names and origins of the four Japanese on the watch, nodded, and was about to say something of thanks, but unexpectedly, a Japanese suddenly stepped forward, came to Lin Yizhe, and bowed solemnly.
"Lord Hayashi, I, Hikonosuke Inoue, request to stay in the Qing Kingdom and become a citizen of the Qing Kingdom!" The Japanese samurai from Kagoshima Prefecture named Hikonosuke Inoue spoke in stiff Chinese and spoke word by word.
Listening to Inoue Yanosuke's words, Yanagihara Maeko was taken aback.
"What do you say? You want...... Naturalization of the Qing Dynasty? Lin Yizhe also asked in surprise.
"Yes! I! To become a Qing Guoren! Inoue Hikonosuke said again, he didn't know that Yanagihara Maemitsu knew Chinese, and he was afraid that he wouldn't understand what he meant, so he spoke Chinese once and repeated it in Japanese.
"Yaga!"
Before Yanagihara Maemitsu could pick up the stubble, another samurai from Kagoshima Prefecture, Ryohei Yamada, screamed, pounced, and punched Inoue Hikonosuke in the face.
Inoue Hinosuke was caught off guard, and was hit by this punch, stumbling and almost falling.
"Yaga! Qing Detective (equivalent to the traitor often said in Chinese)! Traitors! The scum of the empire! Why not seppuku now! Ryohei Yamada pointed at Inoue Hikonosuke and scolded angrily in Japanese.
Inoue Hinosuke shook his head, looked at Ryohei Yamada with disdain, and spat bloody spit on the ground fiercely.
"What qualifications do you have to talk about me? Why didn't you cut our stomach when the head of the house drove us out of the house? Still living like me to this day? Inoue Hikonosuke sneered and straightened up, "His Majesty the Emperor, who I used to be extremely loyal, has deprived me of everything, treating me like a family dog, treating me like a mustard, which makes me feel extremely cold, what else can I talk about loyalty?" ”
"Yaga! Shut me up! You shameless ghost! ”
"You're the ghost! Minion! ”
Yamada yelled and pounced again, punching Inoue Hikonosuke, but this time Inoue was on his guard, first with a hand and then an elbow, hitting Yamada Ryohei in the face.
Inoue Hikonosuke is worthy of being a samurai practitioner, this blow is accurate and ruthless, and the force is amazing, Yamada Ryohei was hit by this heavy blow, and he fell to the ground all of a sudden.
"Yaga Tooth Road! Heaven punishes traitors! Ryohei Yamada, who was bleeding from his nostrils, got up suddenly, pounced like crazy, hugged Hikonosuke Inoue, and the two of them tore hard.
The two Japanese samurai were obviously not weak, and began to fight each other with jiu-jitsu, and their screams and roars attracted the attention of other Japanese who did not know the truth, and they ran over and watched strongly. Seeing the two scuffling together, Yanagihara Maemitsu's face turned the color of pig liver for a while.
For a diplomat like him, there could never be a more humiliating moment.
