June 12, 1893, fine.

Chen Jianqiu didn't know if today was a good day, but at least the day before was.

June 11 is the Day of Remembrance of Emperor Kamehameha, which commemorates the first emperor of the Kingdom of Hawaii, Kamehameha the Great.

This emperor unified the entire island of Hawaii during his reign.

On this day, Native Americans of Hawaii Island perform a Hawaiian hula dance under palm trees and lay a wreath of flowers for the statue of the Emperor to commemorate the great man's service to the Hawaiian Kingdom.

As the ruler of the present-day kingdom, Queen Liliuocanyla also attended in full costume and addressed her people.

She made no secret of her desire to regain power for the royal family and the people of Hawaii.

And as the queen's trusted favorite, Kasaba also appeared at the rally.

He confidently told the queen that everything would be fine as soon as the revised constitution was passed.

The Queen is not naïve, and she also knows that Thurston and the U.S. government behind him will not rest on their laurels.

"Don't worry, my dear Queen, as far as I know, the U.S. government will not intervene in this matter, they are facing a serious economic crisis at home! Their ship has sailed back to San Francisco! ”

Kasaba bowed deeply to the Queen, the sequins on his dress gleaming.

"And we have the Hawaiian pikes, and the police, you are their queen, my majesty, and they will protect you!"

The queen eventually believed Casaba.

That night, an unprecedented bonfire was held in the open space in front of the Honolulu Palace, attended by indigenous people, but also local Chinese, Japanese, Filipinos and whites who knew the aborigines.

Thurston not only showed up, but even toasted the Queen; Kameda Masao did not appear, and it is said that he was sick; Chen Jianqiu was not invited, because the members of the royal family did not know him, and they had no intention of getting to know a Chinese.

That night, many people got very drunk, including the Queen's Captain of the Bodyguard.

It stands to reason that this is a very rude thing and does not comply with the rules of the palace.

The captain of the Royal Guard should not have a hangover under any circumstances.

But the benevolent queen forgave the big swarthy man with a full chest hair.

She watched as five men carried him out.

Who doesn't have a happy day all year round?

The security of the palace was entrusted to the vice-captain of the guard, who stood beside the queen.

And this vice-captain is a person from Thurston.

His gaze smeared through the crowd and exchanged glances with Thurston holding coconut water.

Thurston knew it was done.

Tomorrow is the day of Hawaii's change of dynasty!

Early the next morning, the sun had just risen.

There was still a light mist on the sea, and the harbor had become busy.

The fishermen went out to fish.

The livelihood of a family often refers to these nets of fish, whether there is or not, they have to try.

There aren't a lot of people on the streets of downtown Honolulu.

Because the hired farmers get up before dawn, they must be working on the plantations at this moment.

At this moment, a group of sword-wielding ronin in kimonos and Japanese with new guns on their backs suddenly appeared on the street near the Imperial Palace.

It's not the first time the citizens of Honolulu have seen these Japanese people.

The last time they saw it, it was the last time.

The same momentum, the same firm gaze.

At the head of the line was an old man with a blank face.

The skin on his face was already a little loose, and his cheeks were shaking with his brisk walk.

Masao Kameda came out of the nest this time.

In addition to the ronins who survived the last Chinatown battle, there are also all the rest of the "Genyosha Spear Team".

Among them, dozens of embassy guards under General Okubo were secretly stuffed to Kameda Masao.

Mr. Ambassador scolded and scolded, when it was time to accompany him to fight for his life, he would fight for his life!

What's more, they have now "changed their shotguns for guns" and are equipped with pull-bolt rifles imported from the West.

That's right, the most advanced technology in the world today, Roswell 1888, is produced in the United States!

Kameda had no intention of hiding his whereabouts at all.

The headquarters of the Genyosha at the foot of the mountain is too close to the Imperial Palace.

The Hawaiian pikes, who pose the greatest threat, are not standing troops and need time to assemble; The location of the police station is even farther away, and when I receive the news, the cucumber dishes are cold.

The Japanese were prepared in the early hours of the morning.

After they assembled at the headquarters of the Genyosha, they rushed to the palace as fast as they could!

Masao Kameda is ready to perform a blitzkrieg and fight quickly!

The coup forces soon arrived at the gates of the palace courtyard.

The royal palace of the Kingdom of Hawaii is called Iolani Palace, which was built by King Kalakaua, the elder brother of the current Queen Liliuo Canilla.

It is a huge Renaissance-style building with white walls, gray tiles, and straight and exquisite Roman columns that show the owner's Western aesthetic.

The royal family used to be very wealthy because of the relationship between the sandalwood and whale incense trade.

Therefore, the builders of the palace did not skimp on the materials used in the slightest, and they were extremely luxurious.

At the gate of the courtyard, it stands to reason that there should be three or four guards standing guard, and there should be a dozen or so people patrolling the garden.

But the vice-captain of the guard, in order for Thurston's people to enter smoothly, found an excuse to branch out of the other, leaving only one soldier at the gate.

This unlucky guy saw these Japanese and just wanted to ask.

Kameda didn't bother at all, stepped forward quickly, drew his katana at his waist and slashed the guard.

"Rush in!" The old man was so murderous that he didn't even put away his knife, stepped on the green grass of the royal garden, and rushed towards the palace with his knife upside down.

When the samurai saw the blood, they became even more excited, and the black pressed after them.

At this time, the deputy captain of the guard and the guards in the palace also heard the footsteps outside.

"Captain, shall we see what's going on outside?" One of the guards said to the vice-captain.

"What's the panic? I'll go to the gate and see, you stand where you are, don't move! ”

Unlike the nervousness of his subordinates, the vice-captain was calm.

In his opinion, it was all within his grasp.

When he is done, he will have a place in the new government as a hero!

The vice-captain could have found a place to hide and wait for the coup to take place, but he couldn't help but want to meet the coup team in person.

He listened attentively to the movement outside the palace, and estimated that the people outside should be about to arrive at the gate, so he tidied up his clothes and prepared to welcome his "glory"!

However, when he opened the door of the palace with both hands, he saw a scene that he did not expect.

An old Japanese man with a blood-dripping knife and a group of Japanese ronins was walking briskly across the courtyard in his direction.

Japanese? Why wasn't the situation right with Thurston and himself?

Did they change their plans? Or did you unite with the Japanese?

The vice-captain felt a little dizzy.

But he reacted quickly.

Because, Kameda Masao raised his katana, pointed at the gate of the palace, and roared:

"Shell to!! (Charge)"

"Babble, babble!"

"Onboard!"

The ronins seemed to have been injected with stimulants, and they screamed and pounced, and the sound of killing outside the palace shook the sky!

"Bang dang!"

The deputy captain's expression changed sharply, and he slammed the door shut, and at the same time shouted hoarsely to the guards behind the second monk who were confused:

"There are people who rebel! Hurry up and block the door! ”
