The luxurious private room of Duofu Casino.
The gambling game between the Yoshida group and the Kawamoto group, which had been postponed for two days, had been going on for more than an hour.
Opposite Lu Ming at the extremely large gambling table sat an old man in a black kimono.
Two people were playing blackjack, the older one was called Kaneda Kuan.
Lu Ming represents the Kawamoto group and Kaneda Hiroshi represents the Yoshida group.
The two of them won and lost alternately, but Lu Ming won more often.
Beads of sweat gradually appeared on the old man's forehead, as if he was fighting with someone and it was extremely difficult.
Lu Ming glanced at Jinguji Heiji who was sitting next to him.
Obviously, this Kaneda Hiroshi is not the old monster from the Yoshida family that Jinguji Hyoki mentioned, but he can still resist under the oppression of Granny Tuolong's magic. It seems that the strength of the Kaneda family cannot be underestimated, especially the old monster who is said to have lived for more than 200 years. Could he have reached the level of Biju and Liuli
However, the royal magic of Central Plains inherited by Bizhu, Liuli and others complement each other and are powerful. Together with himself, they are like an extremely strict system. Even Bizhu can train warriors in batches, but time flies and times change. It is no longer a thousand years ago when they can rely solely on these warriors to conquer the world.
The secret techniques of the Kaneda family would definitely not be of this nature.
"My lord, I..." Jinguji Heiji wanted to say something, but apparently she forgot how to express it in Central Plains when the words came to her lips. Recently, she has been seizing every opportunity to learn Central Plains.
Seeing her thinking hard, Lu Ming couldn't help but smile.
Originally, Jinguji Heiji was a little embarrassed, but when she saw Lu Ming's smile, she breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Jin Tiankuan, who was sitting across the gambling table, suddenly smiled strangely at Lu Ming: "I know who you are!"
These words were like a powder keg that instantly ignited. The dealers, waiters, and others from the Yoshida Group all pulled out their guns, pointed at Lu Ming and shot.
"Bang bang bang", Lu Ming was caught off guard and was shot several times in the chest.
Jin Tiankuan, who was originally flying towards Lu Ming, seemed to have exchanged a few moves with the person in the void, and was thrown far away with a scream.
There was a burst of screams and gunshots.
The red feathers dressed as Japanese samurai instantly dispersed to the enemy, and the Yoshida group's gunners fell to the ground one after another under the shining blades.
But they didn't care at all and pulled the trigger in the direction of Lu Ming before they fell down.
Lu Ming fell to the ground with blood all over his chest.
Jinguji Heiji actually reacted very quickly. I don’t know what she was thinking, but she immediately threw herself at Lu Ming and tried to block the bullet for him.
I think wealth and honor are sought at the risk of one's life. If he survives, it will be a much greater favor to the Prince of Black Mountain Castle than washing his bones.
Moreover, if the Prince of Black Mountain Castle died here, not to mention the earth-shaking changes that would be caused, not to mention her hope of revenge for her relatives, she herself would be implicated and become cannon fodder in the raging anger of the Principality of Black Mountain's revenge.
However, Lu Ming had already pushed her away, and later on Lu Ming was hit by several bullets. If he had not been quick enough to push away the Jingu Temple, she would not be invulnerable and would have died.
Lu Ming closed his eyes and seemed to be in a coma. The Hong Lings carried him on their backs and guarded him on both sides as they attacked outside.
There were no gunmen among the ronin of the Yoshida group outside, and they were killed by the Red Feathers and fled in all directions.
The long street was filled with Japanese warriors hacking and killing people everywhere. The Kawamoto group was also prepared for a fallout today, and both sides were killing each other.
The conflict gradually subsided until teams of police arrived, imposed martial law and fired shots into the air.
"Police Officer Zhang" was sent to the hospital, and his entourage informed the local police and the official representatives from Yoshida Territory that the seriously injured person was Viscount Zhang Amin, one of the most important ministers of His Royal Highness the Prince of Black Mountain Castle, who had just stepped down as the Governor-General of Xiangxi.
For a moment, Yoshida was shocked.
Unfortunately, Governor Zhang died of his injuries that night.
Doctors from Yoshida Castle’s largest and best military hospital witnessed his death.
Governor Zhang's entourage was filled with grief and left Yoshida Castle that night carrying the coffin of Governor Zhang's body.
The train was a specially opened special train, carrying Governor Zhang's entourage and the Kawamoto group's samurai.
But no matter who it is, everyone knows that things are not over yet, and a storm is about to hit.
…
On the top floor of the Railway Building, Lu Ming was lost in thought.
"Governor Zhang" has been cremated and his ashes have been scattered into the sea in accordance with his wishes.
Lu Ming has now returned to his original appearance, and his new identity is the prince's special envoy to Japan to handle the assassination case of Governor Zhang. His name is Lu Jun.
If someone had seen the Prince of Black Mountain Fort in person, then based on Lu Ming's new name and appearance, they would definitely think that Lu Jun was the Prince of Black Mountain Fort's younger brother, or even a twin.
Lu Ming didn't expect that Yoshida and his group would have such an unexpected gain.
"Governor Zhang" finally died, and his death was worth it.
The Japanese hate "Governor Zhang" too much.
Therefore, when "Police Officer Zhang" showed such great gambling skills, the Jintian family was immediately reminded of the great losses they had suffered in Shengjing.
There was also a member of the Jintian family who trained Haixi bandits and also died at the hands of "Governor Zhang".
Therefore, Kaneda Hiroshi did not hesitate to leave the place where the former Prime Minister Ashikaga was under house arrest in order to confirm whether it was a blood feuding enemy that had come.
After all, there are very few extraordinary people in this world.
When Jin Tiankuan found out that he couldn't beat him in the bet, he confirmed his identity.
When he said "I know who you are", he naturally meant that he knew he was "Governor Zhang".
This matter was probably tacitly agreed by Yamamoto Yu. After all, the importance of "Governor Zhang" in the Black Mountain Group was self-evident. If the right-hand man of Prince Black Mountain Castle could be eliminated, it would be worth it even at a terrible price.
What's more, who can you blame if you, "Governor Zhang", get involved in gang fights yourself
The Yoshida group is the best scapegoat.
However, the appearance of "Governor Zhang" in Yoshida also made Yamamoto Yu alert.
When Kaneda Hiroshi was involved in the gambling fight, former Prime Minister Ashikaga was also urgently transferred.
But without Kaneda Hiroshi's presence, the guards were much easier to deal with, and the Qing'e easily replaced the former Prime Minister Ashikaga.
The "Prime Minister Ashikaga" who is under house arrest today is actually an old man from the Ashikaga family who looks very similar to the former Prime Minister Ashikaga. He has also undergone some facial modifications. If he were not a relative or friend who is particularly familiar with Prime Minister Ashikaga, I am afraid no one would recognize him.
Moreover, while "Prime Minister Ashikaga" was under house arrest, the guards were forbidden to talk to him, so they would not notice that the person had been replaced.
The fake "Prime Minister Ashikaga" was also determined to die. He was already old and dying, and his body was useless. He had no regrets in dying as he could do such a great thing for his family.
From the perspective of the Ashikaga faction and the Principality of Montenegro, the later Yamamoto discovered that Prime Minister Ashikaga had escaped, the better it would be for them.
Moreover, now, the death of "Governor Zhang" would certainly make him ecstatic, but the big trouble he would have to deal with next would be enough to make him overwhelmed.
Lu Ming slowly stood up and walked to the window. Outside, he could hear the roar of planes. A group of fighter planes took off from Xianquan Military Airport and flew over Ooyue, heading to bomb the Yoshida Division's camp.
Lu Ming scratched his head. In fact, when he thought about it, he seemed to be a bit too bullying. He took advantage of the situation to cause the death of "Governor Zhang" and then started blackmailing with force with justification.
But from an external perspective, Montenegro had every reason to retaliate angrily.
Inside the principality, the military's calls for another war with the Japanese were growing louder and louder.
It would be abnormal if I didn't react.
