Chapter 948: Going Behind Enemy Lines

Without further ado, after getting the answer he wanted, Shimazu Hiromichi went back to Shimazu Nakano for a final discussion.

"I'll go back to my uncle first to confirm his various backhands in Kyushu, and if nothing else, I'll be back here in five hours, I hope you can prepare in advance." Hiromichi Shimazu finished speaking and left.

Liu Xing stretched his waist and said with a smile: "I knew that I would sleep for two more days, but I didn't expect to be pulled out to work this time." ”

Yin En also smiled and said: "Yes, I didn't expect Shimazu Takeshi to be so reckless, and at this time he wanted to seek the position of the head of the Shimazu family, but I'm still quite curious about a question, that is, who gave Shimazu Takeshi courage?" It stands to reason that although he can win over some of the senior administrators of the Shimazu family's estate, it is not easy for him to convince the members of the Shimazu family to support him, not to mention that Shimazu Nakano should have left a lot of sensible people in Kyushu. ”

The "sensible" in Yin Eun's mouth refers to those who know the existence of secret churches and mythical creatures, and these people also know what the truth of the battle of Gongmu is, so it is impossible for these people to defect to Shimazu Takeshi under normal circumstances, and it is difficult for Shimazu Takeshi to solve these people.

"It seems that there should also be an outside force behind Shimazu Takeshi who supports him in doing so, and this foreign force should also participate in the battle of Gongmu, although we can't be sure whether this force belongs to the public faction or the samurai faction." Zhang Jingxu said as he drank tea.

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, and said with some surprise: "Oh, Zhang Jingxu, do you mean that the mastermind behind Shimazu Takeshi doing this is our own people?" ”

Zhang Jingxu nodded and said seriously: "That's right, I am more inclined to think that this time Shimazu Takeshi was supported by a certain force of the samurai faction, so he decided to take the next step, because according to Shimazu Nakano's previous statement, he should not have told Shimazu Takeshi the truth about this world, nor did he explain the situation of those strange people in the Shimazu family to Shimazu Takeshi, so if Shimazu Takeshi did not have the corresponding support, it would be impossible for him to control the Shimazu family in such a short period of time." ”

"Of course, the reason why I think it's my own people doing something is because the island of Kyushu, where the Shimazu family is located, is under the control of the samurai faction, because there are many families who participate in the samurai faction, and their base camp is on Kyushu Island, so the influence of the samurai faction on Kyushu Island is no less than the Kansai region where we are now, or even more than that, so the members of the public faction can infiltrate the Shikoku region on a large scale, and even the Kansai region, and they can't send too many people to the Kyushu region, Unless they also had men arranged before the start of the Gongwu War. ”

"So now only the forces of the samurai faction have the ability to send a large number of people to help Shimazu Takeshi control the entire Shimazu family in a short period of time, as for why this force wants to do this, I'm afraid it's because they want to be the leader of the samurai faction, and the fat of the Shimazu family is also very fragrant, and the most important thing is that this piece of fat is also very easy to mouth, just like now, you only need to support the puppet Shimazu Takeshi to come to power."

Zhang Jingxu paused, shook his head and said: "Of course, this is just my own opinion, maybe it is because Shimazu Takeshi's wife, that is, Shimazu Nakano's daughter, is on the side of Shimazu Takeshi, so Shimazu Takeshi can complete the following grams with the characteristics of the island country, not to mention that in the Warring States Period, there are countless examples like this." ”

Sawada Yayin on the side smiled and said: "Yes, during the Warring States Period, there was a good show of father's kindness and filial piety, brother's friend and brother's respect, and now it is normal to have a classic reproduction, and strictly speaking, I am similar to Shimazu Takeshi, and I also forcibly took over the position of the head of the Sawada family from my father; But then again, why don't I go with you to Kyushu Island too? ”

Yin En hurriedly shook his head and said: "No, no, no, Miyin, you can't follow us to Kyushu Island, because we are also going deep behind enemy lines this time, so you can't take this risk as the head of the Sawada family, and we also need you to contact Shimazu Nakano, because sometimes we can't listen to Shimazu Hiromichi." ”

"That's right, in this operation, Shimazu Hiromichi will definitely find an opportunity to carry private goods, for example, Shimazu Nakano wants to spare Shimazu Takeshi's life, but Shimazu Hiromichi will definitely not let Shimazu Takeshi live; Or Shimazu Nakano plans to negotiate peace with Shimazu Takeshi, and Shimazu Hiromichi will insist on fighting Shimazu Takeshi to the end, because it is in the interests of Shimazu Hiromichi to do so, so we need Sawada-sama, you to contact Shimazu Nakano directly, lest we be deceived and used by Shimazu Hiromichi. Ding Kun said.

As a result, Sawada Yayin gave up his plan to go out in person.

Five hours later, Liu Xing and the others prepared their suitcases.

To be honest, there is nothing to prepare for this trip to Kyushu, because to put it bluntly, it is a decapitation operation, as long as Takeshi Shimazu is solved, then all problems can be solved.

So at this time, Shi Zixuan had already set off in advance, and was ready to sneak into the Shimazu family to find out what was going on to determine Shimazu Takeshi's current situation, and then Liu Xing and the others would just need to bring weapons to find trouble with Shimazu Takeshi.

"Fortunately, we persuaded Shi Zixuan to join us, otherwise this operation would be troublesome, after all, Shimazu Nakano has lost control of the Shimazu family, and it is not easy for us to collect the internal situation of the Shimazu family." Liu Xing checked the pistol and said.

Zhang Wenbing, who was sitting opposite Liu Xing, sighed and said worriedly: "Although we have the help of Shi Zixuan this time, the success rate of the operation has increased a lot, but this operation is still full of dangers, because Shimazu Takeshi must have guessed that we will go to Kyushu to find trouble for him soon." ”

As soon as Zhang Wenbing's words fell, he saw Shimazu Hiromichi walk into the living room.

Hiromichi Shimazu didn't talk nonsense either, and went straight to the point: "I have arranged a yacht here that can go directly to Kagoshima." ”

The Kagoshima area is located in the southwestern part of Kyushu and is located in the traditional sphere of influence of the Shimazu family, and the Shimadzu family's base camp is also in the Kagoshima area.

"What, are we going straight behind enemy lines? I thought we would go to Fukuoka to rest and gather information before we went to Kagoshima. Liu Xing said with some surprise.

Shimazu Hiromichi shook his head and said helplessly: "My original plan was to arrive in Fukuoka first, and then decide what to do next according to the actual situation, but my uncle warned me not to go to Fukuoka, because our Shimadzu family also has a lot of industries in Fukuoka, after all, Fukuoka City is the largest city on Kyushu Island, so it is very likely that Shimazu Takeshi will use those industries to install a lot of eyeliner, and it is very likely that we will be discovered by Shimazu Takeshi as soon as we arrive in Fukuoka." ”

"Wouldn't it be too risky for us to go straight to Kagoshima?" Liu Xing said with a frown.

Shimazu Hiromichi shook his head and said with a smile: "There is a good saying - the most dangerous place is the safest place, although Kagoshima, as the private place of our Shimazu family, has now been controlled by Shimazu Takeshi, the bastard, but there is one place that Shimazu Takeshi is absolutely impossible to control." ”

"Tanegashima?!" Liu Xing said subconsciously.

Because of the geographical location of Kyushu Island and the fact that the Europeans had a great navigation route from west to east, the Shimazu family quickly got in touch with foreigners and reached a cooperation.

In the war-torn Warring States Period, the best goods in the hands of foreigners were muskets and cannons, and in order to be able to make muskets themselves, the Shimazu family arranged for these foreign craftsmen to go to Tanegashima to make muskets after buying foreign craftsmen, and in order to prevent hostile forces from destroying or stealing musket technology, the Shimazu family arranged heavy troops to defend Tanegashima and sent their most trusted retainers to Tanegashima to take charge of various affairs.

"Although with the change of the times, the importance of Tanegashima to our Shimazu family has become less and less, but our Shimazu family still regards Tanegashima as the last safe house, so the successive heads of the Shimazu family have set up hideouts on Tanegashima in various names, and arranged for many loyal retainers of our Shimazu family to be responsible for managing and maintaining those hideouts, and these hideouts are only known to the head of the Shimazu family and are qualified to use them, so Shimazu Takeshi knows that we may go to Tanegashima, But he couldn't do anything about it, because he didn't know where the hiding places were. Shimazu Hiromichi said with some smugness.

Sure enough, it is the three holes of the cunning rabbit.

Seeing that Shimazu Hiromichi was so confident, Liu Xing and the others had no objection, and directly got in the car and followed Shimazu Hiromichi to the beach.

After getting on the yacht, Shimazu Hiromichi took Liu Xing and the others to a small room.

In this small room, Liu Xing and the others saw the familiar exoskeleton armor.

"Although our Shimazu family only has so many exoskeleton armors, since everyone in the Sawada family is willing to risk their lives to help our Shimazu family through this difficult time, then our Shimazu family can't say it too much if we don't show some gratitude, so my uncle decided to give these exoskeleton armor to everyone in the Sawada family, I hope everyone in the Sawada family can like it." Hiromichi Shimazu said seriously.

Do you like it?

Of course I do.

Liu Xing and the others were all dazzled when they saw these exoskeleton armors, because the role of these exoskeleton armors Liu Xing and the others were very clear.

"Then thank you Uncle Shimazu, we are very satisfied with such a thank you." Yin En said with a smile, "Originally, I wanted to ask Brother Hongdao if you could bring these exoskeleton armors, because as long as we have these exoskeleton armors, the success rate of our operation will be much higher." ”

In the previous discussions of Liu Xing and others, they all thought that Shimazu Nakano would definitely lend these exoskeleton armors to his group again, but Liu Xing and others did not expect that Shimazu Nakano would actually give these exoskeleton armors to his group.

Just when Shimazu Hiromichi and Yin Eun were complimenting each other, Liu Xing suddenly noticed that something seemed to be wrong with these exoskeleton armors, because there were some subtle changes in the appearance of these exoskeleton armors.

Seeing this situation, Liu Xing immediately chose to get started and check the introduction of this exoskeleton armor.

Then, Liu Xing finally understood why Shimazu Nakano would give these exoskeleton armors to his group.

To put it simply, after Shimazu Nakano excavated the underground pit of Yonezawa Farm, he made a fool of Mi. The living armor made by Ge was studied, and then probably because the research was progressing well, Shimazu Nakano decided to use the living armor technology to modify these exoskeleton armors.

If the plan is successful, then these exoskeleton armors will be qualitatively changed, and they can be used directly on the set of the superhero next door as a suit.

As a result, Shimazu Nakano failed, although these exoskeleton armor that fused living armor technology has been strengthened to a certain extent, and can automatically cover the whole body, eliminating the cumbersome manual wear, but if you want to use this set of exoskeleton armor, you have to pay a greater price.

Every time you wear this armor for more than 10 minutes, the wearer will lose 1 HP and 1 san, and if you wear it for less than 10 minutes, it will still be counted as 10 minutes.

On top of that, once the wearer wears the armor for more than an hour, it will not be able to take it off.

So in Liu Xing's opinion, this new version of exoskeleton armor can already be renamed "man-eating armor".

Liu Xing shook his head, and half of his enthusiasm for this exoskeleton armor disappeared in an instant.

Of course, Liu Xing still had a smile on his face, so as not to be discovered by Shimazu Hiromichi.

After looking at the exoskeleton armor, Liu Xing and the others returned to the yacht deck to watch the scenery and enjoy the calm before the storm.

When the sky was completely dark, Liu Xing and the others finally arrived at Tanegashima.

"This small village is one of the hideouts of our Shimazu family, but the destination of our trip is not here, because this small village is located on the outskirts of Tanegashima, and if Shimazu Takeshi sends someone to patrol Tanegashima by boat, then we still have a chance of being discovered." Shimazu Hiromichi said, pointing to the small fishing village in front of him.

Liu Xing looked at the small fishing village in front of him, and found that almost all the residents in the small fishing village were sturdy adult males, and the architectural layout of this small fishing village was also very exquisite, which could ensure that all the buildings could form a corner between them, and the most important thing was that these buildings had no windows, and they used small holes to ventilate, and these small holes were obviously shooting holes.

Hiromichi Shimazu found the head of the small fishing village, and after a brief exchange, the head of the village drove a pickup truck out of his backyard.

Then, Liu Xing and the others continued to set off in a small truck.

After a while, Zhang Wenbing suddenly said, "Are we going to the space center?" ”
