Iinuma Takazo said: "If Xu Rui really planned to sneak into Tokyo to assassinate His Majesty the Emperor, then it makes sense logically that the New Fourth Army deliberately announced their death. The New Fourth Army was covering up for Xu Rui. Lure the empire into letting its guard down and create an opportunity for Xu Rui to sneak into Tokyo and assassinate His Majesty the Emperor."
"Baga!" Shun Tada shouted sternly, "Iinuma-kun, immediately order the blockade of all land and water passages outside Shanghai, and then notify the navy to strengthen the search for ships leaving Shanghai, whether they are imperial ships, foreign ships, or even American ships. Under examination, we must not give Xu Rui any opportunity to take advantage of him."
"I'm afraid it's too late." Chiyoko Inoue said quietly.
"It's too late?" Tada Shun said, "Miss Inoue, what do you mean?"
Chiyoko Inoue said: "I mean, Xu Rui may have sneaked into Tokyo."
"Nani? Maybe Xu Rui has sneaked into Tokyo?" Tada Shun couldn't help but make Lingling shiver when he heard this. Doesn't this mean that His Majesty the Emperor is in danger? Thinking of this, Jun Tada was really scared to death. If His Majesty the Emperor was really assassinated by Xu Rui, then he would really have no choice but to commit seppuku!
Iinuma Takazo said: "Miss Inoue, is this impossible?"
"Is it really impossible?" Inoue Chiyoko glanced back at Iinuma Takazo and said lightly, "What kind of method did Xu Rui use to escape with his people without anyone noticing? I don't know I know, but I know that with his skills, it would be a piece of cake to sneak into Tokyo!"
"Easily?" Jun Tada said solemnly, "What about, for example?"
Chiyoko Inoue said: "For example, he can easily board a cargo ship that travels between a dock on the Yangtze River and the mainland of the empire. With his skills, he can hide in a cargo ship full of goods and be discovered. The probability is not much greater than the probability of catching a needle from the sea, what do you think, Commander?"
Jun Tada said anxiously: "In this case, we must notify the base camp and the royal family as soon as possible..."
"There is no need to be too hasty." Chiyoko Inoue waved her hand and added, "It can be said that it is easy for Xu Rui to sneak into Tokyo, but it is extremely difficult to complete the assassination of His Majesty the Emperor. Because His Majesty the Emperor rarely leaves the Imperial Palace, even if he does occasionally, it would be difficult for Xu Rui to keep track of his whereabouts."
After a pause, Chiyoko Inoue continued: "So unless Xu Rui dares to break into the Imperial Palace, it is impossible for him to launch an assassination operation against His Majesty the Emperor in a short period of time. In view of this, we don't need to be too anxious to warn him, so as not to cause trouble." The whole of Tokyo and even the whole of Japan will be in a bad mood, which will make it easier to do bad things."
Jun Tada said anxiously: "Just be afraid, Xu Rui will really break into the imperial palace!"
"It would save trouble if Xu Rui really broke into the imperial palace." Chiyoko Inoue shook her head and said, "However, I can tell you responsibly that he will not do it."
Iinuma Takazo asked: "Why not?"
Chiyoko Inoue said: "Because the Imperial Palace is protected by ninjas!"
"Sodes." Tada Shun and Iinuma Takazo breathed a sigh of relief.
Chiyoko Inoue added: "However, I have to go back to Tokyo."
"Hai!" Tada Shun paused and said, "Compared to the safety of His Majesty the Emperor, the safety of us frontline commanders is nothing. Miss Inoue, the safety of His Majesty the Emperor is up to you."
After saying that, the two old devils bowed deeply to Chiyoko Inoue.
…
Meanwhile, at the Imperial Palace in Tokyo.
Tokyo Governor Ishihara Inotarō is meeting with Hirohito about yesterday's incident.
Although Beichen Itto-ryu is said to be just a kendo sect, it was registered with Hirohito after all. Not to mention anything else, the plaque hanging on the door of Zhenwu Hall is handwritten by Hirohito! Now that Beichen Ittoryu was wiped out by others, Hirohito certainly couldn't help but take action, so after hearing the news, he called Ishihara Inotaro to the Imperial Palace.
"Ishihara-kun." Hirohito leaned on the brocade cushion and asked lazily, "What's going on with Beichen's Itto-ryu?"
Inotarō Ishihara shouted, and immediately and respectfully told Hirohito everything he knew about Beichen Ittoryu. After hearing this, Hirohito immediately showed an expression of disbelief on his face. He originally thought that Asahi The article published in the news was just sensationalism, but you didn't expect that it was all true
"Ishihara-kun, is this true?" Hirohito said in shock, "You said that the Shin Martial Arts School was really wiped out by a swordsman named Nakajo Shuichi? Is this true?"
"Hai." Ishihara Inotarō paused and said, "To your Majesty, this is indeed a fact."
"Yo Xi." Hirohito touched the mustache on his lips and said leisurely, "Then how advanced should Nakajo Shuichi's swordsmanship be? I remember Chiba Musashi, the leader of the Beichen Ittou style. He is a master of the ninth level, but Shuichi Nakajo’s swordsmanship is still superior to that of Chiba Musashi, how powerful must he be?”
"This..." Inotarō Ishihara said in embarrassment, "I really don't know."
"Nonsense, of course you don't know. You are not a master of swordsmanship. You simply cannot understand how terrifying a master of swordsmanship beyond the ninth level is!" Hirohito laughed and cursed, then continued, "But I know, I was lucky enough to see it once. The battle between Chiba-ryu Master and Gao Yu-sensei was truly thrilling."
As the governor of Tokyo, Inotaro Ishihara is also a senior government official. Naturally, he knows that in addition to hundreds of ordinary guards, there are three hidden masters in the Imperial Palace. The three hidden masters in the Imperial Palace are Kendo, Judo and A master of the ninth degree of karate, Takaha Sahei is the ninth degree of kendo.
Inotarō Ishihara couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, who won the competition between Master Takaha and Master Chiba?"
"Nonsense, of course Takaba-sensei won in the end." Hirohito glared at Inotarō Ishihara angrily and said, "But at that time, Master Chiba had just been promoted to the ninth level of Kendo, and he had not even advanced to the super ninth level, but he was already able to I'm evenly matched with Teacher Gao Yu, but now ten years have passed, it's hard to say who is stronger and who is weaker."
Ishihara Inotarō said flatteringly: "Master Gao Yu is definitely better."
"Bullshit, how can you be so sure that Mr. Gao Yu must be stronger?" Hirohito said angrily.
Inotarō Ishihara felt bitter in his heart, Your Majesty, wasn't I just trying to flatter you? Isn't this wrong
"It's a pity that Master Chiba passed away at such a young age, but he never had the chance to compete with Master Gaoyu again like sparks hitting the earth." When Hirohito said this, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful, and then he regretted it for less than two seconds. He became relaxed again, and then continued, "But it doesn't matter. Without Master Chiba, there is another Nakajo Shuichi who has more profound kendo attainments. If there is a chance, we must invite this Nakajo Shuichi into the Imperial Palace and let him follow him." Mr. Gao Yu comes to compete!"
Inotarō Ishihara said with a flattering face: "If this is the case, it will definitely be very exciting."
"By the way, Ishihara-kun." Hirohito suddenly asked, "This Nakajo Shuichi is still detained at the Chiyoda Police Station?"
Seeing Ishihara Inotarou nodding, Hirohito said: "Hurry up and let him go. This is a normal kick-off. On the contrary, Beichen Itto-ryu bullies the minority this time, which is against the spirit of the bushido."
"Hai." Ishihara Inotarō paused and said, "I will let him go when we get back."
"Yoshi, go ahead." Hirohito had other things to do, so he immediately signaled Inotarō Ishihara to leave.
Not long after Inotaro Ishihara left, another guard led Hideki Tojo into the study room. When he saw Hideki Tojo, Hirohito's face immediately fell and he became upset.
Tojo Hideki knelt down opposite Hirohito and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty."
Hirohito snorted lightly and said displeasedly: "I can tell by your look that I still haven't found it."
"Hai." Tojo Hideki suddenly nodded and said with a face full of shame, "I am ashamed, Xu Rui and the missing Langya troops have indeed not been found yet, but Miss Inoue has arrived in Shanghai, I believe they will be there soon. There will be good news coming, Your Majesty, you also know that Miss Inoue and her two disciples are very good at tracking."
"Has Miss Inoue arrived in Shanghai?" Hirohito heard this, and the graceful figure of Chiyoko Inoue immediately appeared in his mind. To be honest, any man who has seen Chiyoko Inoue will be attracted by her coquettish charm. Fascinated, Hirohito was no exception. He once wanted to make Inoue Chiyoko a forbidden concubine.
But in the end, the matter was settled. Although Hirohito was the emperor, there were many things that he could not do as he wanted. For example, the choice of the prime minister was not up to him, and there were also the Minister of War, When the Secretary of the Navy and other key department heads are selected, he only has the right to check.
"Hai." Tojo Hideki said after a pause, "Miss Inoue just arrived in Shanghai early this morning."
"Yoshi." Hirohito nodded happily, "With Miss Inoue, there will be no problem."
However, nine times out of ten things in the world are unsatisfactory. As soon as he finished speaking, a guard hurriedly walked in and placed a telegram on Hirohito's desk. After Hirohito read the telegram, his face darkened again. The phone number was from Central China. What the Condemned Army just sent back only said two things. First, Xu Rui and Lang Ya had already run away from Shanghai!
The second thing is that Xu Rui may have sneaked into Tokyo and is preparing to assassinate Hirohito!
Seeing that Hirohito looked unhappy, Tojo Hideki asked: "Your Majesty? What's the matter?"
Hirohito groaned, pointed to the telegram on the table and said, "You'd better read it yourself."
Tojo Hideki quickly picked up the telegram on the table, and his expression changed after reading it.
"This damn cunning Xu Rui! He actually let him run away with such a good opportunity!" Hirohito waved his arm viciously and said, "However, if he really comes to Tokyo this time, it will be a great opportunity. Opportunity, this time, we cannot let him leave alive no matter what!"
