Chapter 160 Old Guy
Nishienji Koi, an old fox born in the same era as Hirofumi Ito.
He was very active when he was young, but when he got older, he hid behind the scenes and promoted the progress of many things. Every foreign invasion was related to him and had a huge influence in all walks of life.
Such a guy who will respond to everyone after a call from the high school has a great influence on Su Chen's plan. Therefore, it must be eliminated.
Nishiyuanji Gongwang is known as the last veteran of Japan, and the prime ministers over the years have almost always been recommended by him. He has a great influence in the military, even to the point where he can change his position in just one sentence.
If he does not die, if he expresses his unsupportion of this uprising, it will be an almost devastating blow to Su Chen's plan.
On February 26th, the rebels sent to kill the Nishiyuanji Gongwang refused to attack him, which eventually led to the failure of the attack. So this time Su Chen chose to do it himself.
The first division is code-named Yu, and is the main legion of Japan. But even such a main force has not been motorized, and it is still mule-horse. The entire division is only equipped with a small number of cars, and most of these cars are deployed in chariot gangs far away from Tokyo.
The cars that Su Chen and the Imperial Doctrine snatched were less than 100, even with the cars of senior officers. Except for a very small number, these cars were taken away by Su Chen. This is the confidence that he would first grab the vault, then destroy the Nishiyuanji Gongwang, then attack the police station, and finally move into Miyakesaka.
Because cars run faster than both legs.
The mansion of King Wang of Xiyuan Temple is very luxurious, and there are armed personnel guards. By the time Su Chen brought his people over, the gate had already been locked, and the armed guards also picked up guns to resist.
"Your Excellency." After getting off the car, several non-commissioned officers came to Su Chen. "The Duke of Xiyuan Temple is highly respected and is a figure like Dinghai Shen Needle. Let's not disturb the Duke."
This is why Su Chen led the team in person. If he hadn't come in person, these people would have left because of the prestige of Nishiyuanji Gongwang.
"You guys." Su Chen's face was solemn. "We are all men who recruit nuclear weapons and should have great ambitions in our hearts! No matter who it is, as long as it is blocking us, it is the enemy, the enemy to be defeated!"
Su Chen first made a big mistake, and then changed the subject, "But Duke of Nishiyuan Temple is indeed a respected person. I think he should understand our just cause. Let's do this, I'll go to negotiate with the Duke in person."
These words made the soldiers overjoyed, and it would be best if they could get the support of the duke.
On the surface, this is true, but in fact, Su Chen did not have such thoughts. It was just to comfort these guys.
Not to mention that the Xiyuan Temple Lord could not support them, even if the Xiyuan Temple Lord was willing to support them, it would not be possible. With the prestige and skills of this old guy, the uprising team composed of young people would soon be played with and applauded by him. This is not what Su Chen wanted to see.
Su Chen and other troops who were pulled up had high expectations and were counting on them to destroy this island country. How could they be easily incorporated?
So, Su Chen said he wanted to talk to Mr. Nishiyuanji in person, but in fact he just wanted to do it himself.
"I am Lieutenant Yamada Ryuzawa, the Third Regiment of the Second Brigade of the First Division." Su Chen came to the door of the Nishiyuanji Gongwang's mansion with a samurai sword and shouted, "I want to talk to the Duke Gong."
Although he said that, Su Chen was looking forward to the people inside to refuse, so that he could use the Type 92 infantry cannon he brought to fire directly.
However, Nishiyuanji Gongwang was very confident in his prestige. After more than ten minutes, the door was opened. A guy in a servant dress walked out and looked at Su Chen with a arrogant look on his face. "Your Excellency Duke, please come in."
Su Chen gestured a victory gesture to the Japanese soldiers behind him, and then walked into the mansion with a samurai sword.
In the Japanese army, the officer's samurai sword is a symbol of identity and is standard equipment. As long as the officer is handed over, he will carry it everywhere he goes. It can basically be regarded as a second life, which is related to dignity.
So after Su Chen untied the gun at the door, the servants of the Nishiyuan Temple Gongwang did not let Su Chen leave the samurai sword.
The mansion of Nishiyuanji Temple was very big. He walked for several minutes just in the front yard, and passed through the corridor and the inner court for several minutes. When Su Chen came to the Japanese-style room in the back yard, he had been walking for almost ten minutes.
You can imagine the energy of Nishinoji Temple to own such a huge mansion in Tokyo, where land prices are valuable.
When he arrived at a small courtyard, Su Chen stopped and looked around.
There is a large cherry blossom tree in the yard, and most of the courtyard is covered by its branches. It is conceivable that when the season comes and blooms, the beautiful scenery will definitely be very spectacular.
There are no strange flowers and plants planted around like other luxury houses, but a bamboo forest.
A canal made of bamboo slid down from the rockery and introduced clear water into a small pond beside the bamboo forest.
The whole courtyard is quiet and elegant, and it looks like a place where people live in seclusion.
At the end of the courtyard is a Japanese-style cabinet. Inside the open wooden door is an old man with white hair kneeling on the tatami and drinking wine.
Su Chen curled his lips and said, "Pretty."
For Su Chen, he often drank with the Emperor of the Ages, and the trick that Xiyuan Temple played was useless to him at all.
After walking directly into the room, Su Chen did not even take off his most basic shoes and sat cross-legged across from Xiyuan Temple. Su Chen was quite uncomfortable with the Japanese people's kneeling.
"Young man." Nishiyuanji Gongwang stopped the guard behind him who wanted to get angry because of Su Chen's rudeness, and looked at Su Chen calmly, "You are so impulsive."
"It's not impulse, but if you don't take action, you will have no chance." Su Chen put the samurai sword next to him and directly reached out to pick up the sake pot in ceramics and poured a cup for himself. "The Duke should be very clear. If the First Division transfers outside, the Imperial Doctrine will completely leave the center and there will be no chance of turning the tables. In the future, if the war is sent to die, there will be nothing."
The King of Xiyuan Temple, who had been quiet before, finally showed a look of surprise.
Since Hirobu Ito was assassinated, Japan has no real strategists. The rest are a group of short-sighted people.
In the eyes of Nishiyuanji, young people like Yamada Ryuze are just impulsive fools. They just do whatever they think of, and don’t know how to consider the consequences at all. They are completely a group of idiots.
But Su Chen's words made the old man look at him with admiration. There are indeed not many young people who can tell this.
"How are you going to end?" After thinking about it, Nishiyuanji Gongwang put down the wine glass in his hand. "Don't you think that everything you want will be done with a round of assassination?"
"There are idiots who have this kind of thought, but it's obvious that I am not." Su Chen poured wine for himself with serene satisfaction. "The first thing to do is to block the imperial residence. Without the emperor's direct statement, no one dared to take action. Then, we have to find those who hold the power and respected people to come forward to deal with the aftermath. The conditions can be raised to the sky, and then we will bargain slowly."
"Oh." Nishiyuanji Kou's eyes became brighter and brighter. "What kind of conditions are the bottom line?"
"Of course, General Masaki is going to return to the Army Province, and the commander of Yanagawa Division must also enter the General Staff Headquarters."
Shisaburo Masaki and Heisuke Yanagawa are both senior leaders of the Imperial Dojo. If they want to avoid being liquidated later, they must be allowed to control the Ministry of Army and the General Staff Headquarters, and at least have great influence.
"Very good." Nishienji Koi, who looked pleased, nodded vigorously. "You are a young man with outstanding eyes, except for the strange-tempered guy Ishihara Kanir. But the idea is good, but how can you achieve it? You have killed so many senior naval executives, and the navy's anger will not be easily calmed."
Ishihara Kaner, the culprit of planning xx, is called a half-strategist in Japan. He does have some abilities, but more because of the generals drawn from the short man, other Japanese officers are really bad.
"The most important thing is to convince the Duke to be a big man with a high prestige like this." Su Chen smiled and drank sake. "If the Duke comes forward and the army's obscure support, this time the matter will be successful. As for the navy's opposition, just give them some benefits in the division of military expenditure, and then bring a few scapegoats to take the blame. There is no conflict in this world that cannot be resolved. If there is, the benefits paid are not enough."
The King of Xiyuan Temple stopped his hand, and he was really shocked by Su Chen.
In his opinion, these young officers with only muscles in their heads are idiots. They never thought that a brilliant young man like Su Chen would appear.
After calming down, Nishiyuanji Gongwang decided to test Su Chen again. "What if the emperor disagrees?"
In Japan, the Emperor is an extremely special existence. Although he never expresses his opinions directly, all kinds of hints mean that he has made a conclusion about the matter.
If the Emperor disagrees, even if the Lord Nishiyuanji looks forward to stand up for Su Chen and the others, it won’t work.
Su Chen held up the wine glass with a smile, "Does the Duke know why I want to block the Imperial Palace?"
The King of Nishiyuan Temple looked stern, but he couldn't help but look in front of him and asked, "Why?"
"Of course, I won't let the Emperor give instructions."
Just when the Nishiyuanji Master was relieved, Su Chen said leisurely, "I have sent someone to Hirosaki."
When the Lord of Xiyuan Temple heard this, his expression changed drastically.
Hirosaki is located in the northeast of Honshu Island in Toyoshi. As for why Nishizoji Gongwang heard Su Chen sending someone to Hirosaki, it was because there was an unusually squadron leader in the Eighth Division stationed in Hirosaki.
