And this time, he did not let the ministers of military aircraft see the "special fold secret performance", to put it bluntly, it was nothing more than to warn the two empress dowagers not to interfere in the entry of the Russian army into Japan, so as not to make Russia unhappy and mislead his great cause of westward expedition!

Although Prince Chun and Prince Jing both understood Zuo Jigao's intentions, they couldn't say it clearly in front of the two queen mothers, although they also knew that the two queen mothers might not be clear about Zuo Jigao's thoughts.

Sure enough, without waiting for Prince Jing and Prince Chun to speak, Renxi spoke first: "Zuo Jigao said in the excerpt that he doesn't care about Japan's idle affairs, he is afraid that he will miss the plan of the western expedition, but Japan is close to the elbow, and what was ceded to Russia is such a large area as Hokkaido, and it is close to Kugu (Sakhalin Island), and now Kuwu has been occupied by the Russians. We can say that we don't care about this matter on the surface, but we must not ignore it at the bottom! ”

"I heard that Japan has a lot of good ports, if the Russians order Hokkaido and send some ironclad soldiers, we will be under control everywhere, this matter must not be allowed to the Russians!" Empress Dowager Rentai looked at the two auxiliary princes who were only chattering, and her voice became stern.

"Obey the order!" Prince Jing and Prince Chun hurriedly knelt down and answered.

"Sixth master, seventh master, get up! This time, let's discuss it privately, and we don't have to be formal. Empress Dowager Rentai said with a pleasant face, "The stakes are very high, in order to prevent news leakage." That's why I'm calling you both over in the evening. Disturb the rest of you both. I also ask you two to be considerate of our sisters' plight. ”

"The ministers understand the queen mother's painstaking efforts!" Prince Jing replied as he stood up.

"Sixth Master, Seventh Master, Zuo Jigao's secret performance, our sisters have approved his invitation on the surface, but what should we do here, I think you two should have a score in your hearts, right?" Renxi asked.

"Back to the Empress Dowager's words, the minister thought that if the Russian army would not be stationed in Japan for a long time. However, it can secretly help the Longsheng rebels in Xixiang, so that the Japanese people will have civil strife for a long time, and then on the grounds of the interests of other countries in Japan, they will introduce multinational interference, so that both Russia and Japan will suffer losses, which is the most beneficial to our great cadres. Prince Jing replied.

"What the sixth master said is that our sisters also have this idea." Renxi and Rentai looked at each other and smiled, "It's just that this matter can't be seen in the light, and it needs to be done secretly." ”

"The Empress Dowager Shengming." The two princes replied in unison.

"Actually, there was civil strife in Japan. When Lin Wenxiang was alive, he had already expected it. And intends to take advantage of Japan's civil strife to weaken its national strength and eliminate the catastrophe forever, Wen Wenzhong also thought it was true back then, the sixth and seventh masters should know about this, but now the two of them are gone, but it is related to the fortune of the country, and no one can die in politics, so please also ask the sixth and seventh masters to work hard. Renxi continued, "Wen Wenzhong's deathbed compromise, saying that Lin Wenxiang played a secret chess game in Japan, Lin Wenxiang and Wen Wenzhong should have explained this matter to the two of you before they died, right?" ”

Prince Jing and Prince Chun's bodies trembled, "What the Queen Mother said is true, it is true." Prince Jing hesitated for a moment and replied, "Lin Wenxiang arranged for a person to enter the Satsuma Domain in Japan before his death to help Xixiang Takamori rise up. ”

"His name is Lin Yiqing, isn't he? I heard that it is Lin Wenxiang's long-lost twin brother? Renxi asked quietly.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, the minister once sent someone to check the genealogy of the Lin family, but there is no record of this person. The minister once sent a letter to Shen Youdan, the governor of Liangjiang, to ask, cover Shen Youdan as Lin Wenxiang's aunt, Lin Wenxiang as his aunt since childhood, as close as his biological parents, when he knew the end, Shen Youdan replied that there seemed to be something, his wife Lin Puqing said that when Lin Wenxiang was born, there were twin brothers, but the day of birth coincided with the wind and rain, thunder and lightning shattered the window lattice, and then the baby disappeared, can not be found, even strange, with its matter is too strange, is not recorded in the genealogy. Prince Jing replied, "It's just that I don't know how Lin Wenxiang found his brother after many years, and how he lurked in Japan." ”

"Sixth master, seventh master, have you ever seen this person?" Empress Dowager Intae asked suddenly.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, on the day Wen Wenzhong died, this person sneaked to the capital to meet Wen Wenzhong, the minister and the seventh master saw this person at Wenwenzhong's home, and he did look exactly the same as Lin Wenxiang, but because he had been away for too long, the wind, frost, rain and snow, his face was darker and thinner than Lin Wenxiang, but he was extremely heroic and talented." Prince Jing replied cautiously, peeking at Prince Chun.

"Seventh Master, have you seen this person too?" Empress Renxi's eyebrows raised.

"Back to the Queen Mother's words, the minister also saw this person, as the sixth brother said, he was born exactly like Lin Wenxiang, judging by his appearance, there is no doubt that the two are indeed twin brothers." Prince Chun replied.

"This person can hide in Japan for many years, help his brother, and he is also a loyal and righteous person, worthy of being the queen of the forest gate." Empress Dowager Renxi sighed, "He can command the rebels to win a series of great victories, and the Japanese government is almost down, and his generals are only afraid that they are still above Lin Wenxiang." ”

"That's what the Queen Mother said." Prince Jing and Prince Chun said together.

"Such a talent, if he can return as soon as possible, I can get another capable general." Empress Dowager Rentai said calmly, "It's just that if the Russian army enters Japan, I'm afraid he will have a big battle with the Russian army, I wonder if he can win the Russian army?" If it is injured by the Russian army, it is not beautiful. ”

"What the Queen Mother said is extremely true, and the ministers should work hard to ensure that this person is well-founded." Prince Jing understood what Empress Dowager Rentai meant by these words, and quickly replied.

Seeing that Prince Jing fully understood what he meant, Empress Dowager Rentai smiled slightly at Empress Dowager Renxi.

After talking for a while, the two princes said goodbye, and after seeing the figures of the two princes disappear, Empress Dowager Renxi picked up the legacy left by Wen Bochuan and looked at it for a while, her eyes fell on Lin Yiqing's name, and she didn't go for a long time.

"This plan to cut the day has been completed, but unfortunately after he returns to China, this credit can only be recorded in the account first." Empress Dowager Rentai understood what Empress Dowager Renxi was thinking, and said with a smile.

When Empress Dowager Renxi heard her words, she also smiled knowingly: "I hope he will return to China as soon as possible!" ”

Cranes chirped outside the window. The two queen mothers turned their heads in unison. I saw several white cranes standing on the back of the main hall. It is leading the neck to the moon and singing.

"The white crane is coming, auspicious omen, it is estimated that there will be good news soon." Empress Dowager Renxi nodded lightly and said.

On October 12, 9079 (the fifth year of the Great Dry Mitsui, the twelfth year of the Meiji era of Japan), Osaka, Japan, the staff headquarters of the Satsuma Army.

"General. The news that the government has borrowed Lucia has been confirmed, and Lucia's army has entered Tokyo yesterday. Shinohara Kunigan looked at Takamori Saigo, who was sitting there with a gloomy face, and said in a deep voice.

Saigo Takamori pondered for a long time before he sighed: "I can't think of it...... The decisive battle with the Lucians began so early! ”

Hearing Saigo Takamori's sigh, all the generals of the Satsuma army present were silent.

After a long while, Saigo Takamori's younger brother, Saigo Kobei, asked, "The Lu army came so quickly, could it be that the government had premeditated it to contact the Lu people?" What kind of benefit did the government give to the Lu people to send troops so quickly? ”

"I heard that the government secretly ceded land in Hokkaido to Lucia. In exchange for Lucia's troops. Nomura Shinosuke said, "I can't imagine that the traitors want to extinguish our and other Qin King's divisions." shamelessly betrayed the rights and interests of the state! ”

"I wonder whose idea it was? If I catch it, I'll break it to pieces! Shiro Ikegami pulled out his knife sharply and said hatefully.

"I'm afraid it's Hirobumi Ito's idea, right? ......," Hachiro Miyazaki sighed.

"No, it's Iwakura Goshi's idea, and Ito Hirobumi just didn't object." A clear voice rang out in the doorway.

Saigo Takamori and the generals of the Satsuma army turned their heads to look and saw Lin Yiqing striding in with a rifle in one hand, a short knife in his waist, and a cloth bag in his hand.

Saigo Takamori noticed that the cloth pocket in Lin Yiqing's hand was dripping blood vigorously, and he couldn't help but be secretly frightened.

"Was it Iwakura Goshi's idea?" Shinohara Kunigan asked in surprise.

"Yes." Lin Yiqing nodded affirmatively.

"What's the specifics of this?" Saigo Takamori asked, and until now, he still couldn't believe that the Meiji government could do such an appalling thing.

"Since the thief army was defeated by our army, the soldiers have no fighting spirit, and the crowd is terrified, and the traitor Iwakura Gu regarded it as a way to save the defeat, so he proposed to His Majesty the Emperor to borrow troops from foreign countries, and many ministers of the DPRK and China agreed, and those who suggested borrowing troops from Britain, France, and Mi alone countries were all there, but Iwakura had the eyesight to disagree with the public, and suggested borrowing troops from Lucia." Lin Yiqing said, "As for the quid pro quo, Japan will cede all of Hokkaido's land to Russia, and Russia will send 100,000 so-called 'volunteers' to fight our army. ”

"100,000 ......" Hearing Lin Yiqing's words, many of the Satsuma generals gasped.

"The so-called 'Volunteer Army' should be a cover-up, right? I guess they should all be active military personnel, but in order to prevent interference from other countries, they use such a name to show that the people of the people are willing to act for the sake of profit. Murata Shinhachi, who had traveled to Europe, obviously knew very well what was going on with the "Volunteer Army", and said with a sneer.

"Iwakura has a ...... Acting like this, aren't you afraid that the news will come out and be pointed out as a national thief by the people of the world? ......," Saigo Takamori muttered.

"What the general said is, so the public news now is that the government of Lu sent volunteers into Japan at the invitation of the Japanese government to help the Japanese government quell the rebellion, and did not mention the transfer of land." Lin Yiqing said, "The news of the transfer of Hokkaido was learned by our intelligence officers in Tokyo who risked their lives to inquire and sent it by telegram. ”

"In this way, Lu Jun is only afraid that it will come soon, right?" Shinohara said with a worried face.

"Lu Jun has arrived." Lin Yiqing said, untied the cloth pocket in his hand and threw it on the floor, and three bloody human heads rolled out of the pocket when it was neutral, as well as a few large-brimmed military hats.

Seeing these white heads with obviously curly hair, Saigo Takamori and the Satsuma generals all changed their faces.

"I heard that there will be an abnormal movement of the thief army in the next few days, so I led a team to the front line in the direction of Nagoya to check, and I encountered a team of Lu troops on the way." Lin Yiqing said, "This is the head of the Lu Army officer. ”

"Lu Jun has arrived in Nagoya?" Shinohara Kunigan was shocked.

"Yes." Lin Yiqing nodded, "The Lu army is escorted by its own navy, so it is very fast. At present, the frontier thief army is all over the important places. All Russian troops have been stationed. Other than that. In Nagasaki, Oyama-kun called, Nagasaki Port's dew ships, for some reason, all of them left the port three days ago, and I don't know where to go, it is estimated that they have gone to rendezvous with their own navy. ”

After listening to Lin Yiqing's report, Saigo Takamori's face sank like water, and he slowly got up. came to the head of the Russian army on the ground, leaned down, picked up a large-brimmed military hat, and took it in his hand to look at it.

The hat was still very complete, but it was stained with brain blood, and it looked dirty and terrible, Saigo Takamori looked at the cockade carefully, and determined that it was the military hat of a Russian captain, and couldn't help but let out a heavy gasp.

"Your Majesty, you...... Don't you really know. What kind of harm will this entail? Saigo Takamori whispered, though he didn't speak loudly. But all the people in the room could hear it clearly.

"In that case, let's let go and fight with the Lu army!" Shinohara said loudly.

As soon as Shinohara Kuni's dry words came out, a number of Satsuma samurai immediately shouted loudly.

Just as everyone was finishing, a thunderous roar suddenly came from the distance outside the window.

Saigo Takamori turned around sharply, walked quickly to the window, looked into the distance, and saw a red light coming from a distance in the direction of Nagoya.

"This is the Nagoya army that has been dispatched to attack Osaka," Lin said, "and they are shelling our positions." ”

"Are our troops ready?" Shinohara Kunigan asked hurriedly.

"I've ordered the Yusaku to wait for them there." Lin Yiqing sneered, "Let them taste the power of our army first!" ”

In the shelter, Yusaku Uehara turned a deaf ear to the explosion of shells fired by the Russian artillery outside, and the figure of Natsumi always appeared in his mind.

"If the ideal is gone, it can be established again, but without love, what happiness is there in life?"

These were the words he first saw from a book.

The faint beautiful and graceful shadow of the moonlight slowly reflected in the depths of his mind, it was Natsumi Nozu with beautiful white hair and long hair, she was standing there with her long eyes lowered and not saying a word. Feeling the beauty that is as pure as the pale sun, feeling that you are in the light and joy because of the beauty of the other person, that wonderful and indescribable shock is impossible to take your eyes off. Even if you deliberately forget it at the moment when you don't see each other, as soon as that beautiful shadow appears, you will still be involuntarily attracted to her, and no matter how fierce and violent her heart is, she will become gentle, and she will only want to sweep the eyes of the other party and take in the beauty and purity of the other party. Even the beauty that the world praises is filthy and unbearable to talk about in her.

The moment he saw her for the first time, Yusaku Uehara was convinced that her beauty belonged to him, and he didn't think about her for a moment. The more she left him, the more he wanted her, and the more he thought about her, the more he felt a warm magnetic aura under that white shirt that was fatally attracting him, so that he couldn't breathe when he saw her face, and he just wanted to hug her fiercely, and pinch her into the flesh and blood, and wanted to possess her madly immediately. But at the same time as he wanted to get it madly, the emptiness of the great fear of getting nothing suddenly stopped him, and that wonderful and very delicate thing was right in front of his eyes, and she smiled and walked in front of him, and the haughty beauty went straight to his eyes, but he did not dare to make a mistake, his heart trembled in a weak and crazy way, and the struggle of the human heart continued, saying what to occupy an active position in the love field, but one of her eyes, the little finger hooked at him, He was going to fall down at her feet and kiss the land she walked on, he didn't want to be so intoxicated like a slave, he was a devilish boy who made the whole Satsuma army proud! The more I feel her loveliness, the more I feel her beauty, or always keep coming to him in the night, the soft red lips with purity and breath gently rubbing between soft lips and soft lips, that irresistible or just under that soft breath, he is intoxicated, he is crazy desperate to get her, he wants her to be his wife, to be the mother of his children. He's obsessed with her, and he wants her to be obsessed with him, and the madness of it all has come true.

Now Natsumi is pregnant with his child.

The more beautiful things are, the more they can arouse people's sense of happiness and happiness, the more fragile they are, but at the same time they are extremely tempting, and just thinking of her purity and delicacy makes his blood gush and breathless.

He hadn't seen her for four days since he arrived. As she walked slowly into the house, when she slowly raised her eyes to look at him, it was too much like a goodbye to never see him again. As she walked slowly past him, he didn't take her hand again. Now he closed his eyes and could see her white face looking at some unknown place without saying a word, the black eyes of the black sea were hanging brightly, and at that moment he actually let go of her hand, he was afraid that if he held it for a little longer, he would not leave again.

In the interval between patrols on the front line, Yusaku Uehara thought about it in such a rapid way.

The cold wind blew, the hot sweat gradually cooled down, and the thoughts gradually turned to the reality side, so, for her good, don't bother her anymore! After all, for the sake of her situation now, he shouldn't have pestered her anymore. She needs a safe and secure environment to give birth to the crystallization of her love with him.

The meaning of his current battle has another layer. (To be continued......)
