Chapter 715 Qingdengs cronies are in danger! They are being targeted

Try the Weiguan School”!【4400】

"I wanted to seize the Shinsengumi and make it mine."

"I originally thought that the Shinsengumi would not be able to survive the 'shortage of food and salary' crisis."

"I want to take advantage of the precious opportunity of the military morale to be in chaos to seize the Shinsengumi in one go."

"I never thought...that Tachibana Aoden is indeed quite capable...!"

"He actually got through this!"

Speaking of this, Qinghe Hachilang frowned, his cheekbones bulged, and he gritted his teeth, his face full of unwillingness and resentment.

“I don’t know whether he received guidance from an expert or what happened, but he was able to find Yataro Iwasaki, a very talented businessman, and come up with a great idea like the ‘Silver Mirror’, which is a huge profit!”

"An ordinary silver mirror can earn you several taels, or even ten taels of gold!"

"That Yataro Iwasaki is obviously just an unknown person, but he is able to see through business opportunities keenly, and he is responsible for running the huge Shinsei Chamber of Commerce in an orderly manner."

"As far as I know, he is planning to sell the silver mirror overseas recently."

“Ship after ship of silver mirrors were transported to Osaka and brought back ship after ship of gold!”

"In addition, he has recently begun to get involved in other industries."

"In the name of the Shinseng Chamber of Commerce, he purchased a large piece of land on the outskirts of Kyoto and started building land from the river."

"If this project is completed, we can earn huge wealth!"

"Under the governance of Yataro Iwasaki, the Shinsei Chamber of Commerce is now thriving."

"With food and pay, there will be military morale."

"All the soldiers of the Shinsengumi who are eating a gluttonous feast and receiving generous pay, all respect Tachibana Aoden as their master!"

"Today, if you want to replace Tachibana Aoden and snatch the Shinsengumi, it will be extremely difficult."

Speaking of this, Qinghe Balang snorted with annoyance on his face.

"Forget it, since we can't capture the Shinsengumi, let's destroy it!"

Qinghe has always had a very clear understanding of his own identity - a loyal and honorable man!

He never agreed with the rule of the shogunate. He only saw the emperor but not the general.

From the day he joined the Shinsengumi, he was rushing to "capture the Shinsengumi".

Isn't it beautiful to spend the shogunate's money, consume the shogunate's food, and then use the shogunate's soldiers to attack the shogunate - a white wolf with empty hands!

Using his identity as "Shinsengumi Staff" to secretly seize the Shinsengumi and transform the Shinsengumi into the vanguard of the great cause of war-the above is Kiyokawa Hachiro's plan...or rather the "original plan".

Just like what he said just now, he originally wanted to wait until the Shinsengumi rebelled due to lack of food and salary, and then secretly seek for it.

However... the changes that took place after that were far beyond his expectations!

However, it is not surprising that he made this misjudgment.

Prior to this, anyone would have felt that Seitobo's situation was already precarious and that the Shinsengumi was a dying force.

Without money and food supplies from the shogunate, how long can this temporarily established new army last?

In fact, before Qingden formed the Shinsengumi Chamber of Commerce, almost everyone was not optimistic about the future of the Shinsengumi.

Even if Qingdeng could manage to keep this stall going, its development would be limited.

As a result... Aoto was able to overcome this difficulty simply by relying on one person and one thing - Yataro Iwasaki and Ginjing! And further strengthened the Shinsengumi!

In terms of personal prestige, Qinghe Balang can't even reach Qingdeng's knees.

In terms of logistics supply, thanks to Meng Qingteng's favor, the soldiers of the Shinsengumi enjoy the best treatment in the country.

Whether it was "spiritually" or "materially", Qinghe Hachilang was beaten by Qingdeng in all aspects.

Under such a situation, talking about "replacing Tachibana Aoden" or "seeking the Shinsengumi" is simply wishful thinking!

Therefore, when Hachiro Kiyokawa discovered that his "tampering plan" had no possibility of being realized, he had to settle for the next best thing and change to another plan - to destroy the Shinsengumi!

Aoshinobu's lofty status and favor within the shogunate, as well as the Shinsengumi's strong combat effectiveness in the "Iga Offensive and Defense Battle", made all Japanese lofty ideals deeply aware of one fact - the soaring strength

The Shinsengumi has become a huge obstacle to the great cause of Zunxing!

An obstacle that cannot move forward unless it is removed!

In the eyes of those with lofty ideals and strategic vision, weakening the Shinsengumi or even destroying it has become an urgent priority!

Qinghe Hachilang is fully aware of his own frailty.

To this end, he has been seeking support from external forces.

From the imperial court to Changshu, from Satsuma to Tosa, he sent his cronies to contact every power he could count on and rely on.

The court's attitude was ambiguous.

Satsuma made it clear that he refused to cooperate.

Changzhou did not respond.

Only the Tosa Kinwang Party in Tosa expressed "interest in you".

Finally, today, Qinghe Hachiro's cronies reported to him: Takeshi Hanheita is willing to form an alliance with them! And he wants to meet him tonight!

That's why the scene of "the two meeting in secret" was engraved.

After listening to Qinghe Hachiro's emotion, Takeshi Hanheita said calmly:

"I have to bear part of the responsibility for Ju Qingden to be in such a good situation today."

"Iwasaki Yataro was originally a country wanderer from Tosa."

"Previously, Tachibana Aoden personally came to visit and offered a 'remuneration of 100,000 taels' in exchange for the deregistration of Yataro Iwasaki and his family, and the restoration of Iwa's father's reputation."

"The IOU he originally wrote to me is still kept in my bookcase."

"To be honest, I didn't take Yataro Iwasaki seriously at all at first,"

"I don't think Tachibana Aoden has the outstanding ability to strengthen the Shinsengumi."

"I just think Ju Qingden is really crazy, he actually spent 100,000 taels of gold to 'buy' an unknown underground ronin."

"Anyway, it's something that won't make you lose money. Why don't you take advantage of the situation and sell it as a favor?"

"So, I agreed to the conditions he proposed."

"Now it seems... I am blind."

"We lost a valuable talent for nothing...it's such a pity."

After Qinghe Hachilang heard this, his facial expression suddenly became embarrassed.

He had just eloquently described how Aoto became even more powerful after acquiring Iwasaki Yataro, but he had forgotten that "Iwasaki Yataro was originally from Tosa, and the reason why he served Aono was all because of Takeichi Hanheita's 'assist'"

fact.

In this way, his previous words seemed to be secretly accusing Takeshi Hanheita of his fault.

At this time, someone standing behind Wushi Hanpingtai suddenly said:

"Teacher, since you still keep Ju Qingden's IOU, let's go collect the debt from him!"

"That guy has a lot of money now! There's no way he can't hand over 100,000 gold!"

"'100,000 taels of gold will be exchanged for Iwasaki Yataro' - this is what Tachibana Aoto said personally, and he also wrote an IOU in black and white!"

"This money belongs to us. If we don't take it, we won't take it for free!"

As soon as this person finished speaking, Takeshi Hanheita turned his head sideways, squinted his eyes, and glanced at him coldly.

"We are noble warriors."

"As a samurai, but acting like a businessman, holding up an IOU to ask for debts from others, what is the decency of him?"

After being scolded by Takeshi Hanheita, the man immediately lowered his head with a look of shame on his face.

"Teacher, I'm sorry...I was reckless."

When Qinghe Balang saw this, he thought to himself:

——This person calls Takeshi Hanheita "teacher"... Apparently, he should be Takeshi Hanheita's student.

Wu Shi Banping Taiyuan is a master of a field.

He was a talented man with both civil and military skills.

Therefore, his dojo teaches both martial arts and knowledge.

The most eye-catching aspect of his monastery is that he does not care about his origin.

Whether they are senior sergeants who enjoy all the privileges, or low-status Baizha countrymen or corporals, they can freely join his sect.

Hanping Tai's class status in Takeshi is Baizha Xiangshi.

Although the social status of Baizha Xiangshi is higher than that of corporals, in the eyes of sergeants, it is still synonymous with "humble".

For this reason, the sergeants were completely dismissive of Hanping Tai's dojo in Wu City.

In this way, most of the apprentices of Banpingtai in Wu City are the children of corporals.

In general, the status of corporals in the Tosa Domain was extremely embarrassing.

Although he is a warrior, he suffers discrimination.

The unfair treatment suffered by the corporals includes, but is not limited to: not being able to hold an umbrella when it rains, but having to wear a raincoat; not being able to wear clogs, only straw sandals; if you meet a sergeant on the road, you need to stand on the side of the road to make way for the sergeant.



In such an environment, there is such a dojo that not only will not discriminate against you because you are a corporal, but will also teach you martial arts with great care... It is conceivable that the corporals are naturally grateful to Wushi Banping.

Even if you are not his student, you will still respect and love him.

After Hanheita Takeichi formed the Tosa Kinnoi Party, most of its core members were his disciples.

As a result, following the "grace of education", the apprentices of Banpingtai in Wushi received the "grace of knowledge".

Measured by the values ​​of the feudal era, such a great kindness cannot be compensated even by risking one's life!

Most of those who call Takechi Hanheita "teacher" and follow him to conquer the world regard him as their lifelong belief! They worship him like a god!

Because of this, although the Tosa Kinou Party is not large in scale, it has extremely high centripetal force.

At this time, Takeshi Hanheita continued:

"I don't like asking people for money in a low voice."

"I like to take away things that belong to me one by one!"

"If we can destroy the Shinsengumi, the benefits we can get are not comparable to a mere 100,000 taels of gold?"

Speaking of this, Takeichi Hanheita narrowed his eyes, and a sharp light burst out from his mouth.

"Qinghe Jun, let's get back to the topic."

"On behalf of the Tosa King Party, I would like to formally form an alliance with you!"

"From now on, we will help each other."

"We are in the same boat and we share weal and woe."

"Gather your strength and mine together to subvert the Shinsengumi!"

Qinghe Hachilang immediately responded:

"This is natural! Mr. Wu Shi, to be honest, I have been waiting for this day for too long!"

Wu Shi Banping nodded lightly:

"Then, let's make an oath by striking gold!"

As he spoke, he picked up the saber beside him and pulled out half of the blade with a clang.

Qinghe Hachiro immediately made the same move - picked up the sword and pulled out half of the blade.

In the next breath, the two of them sheathed their swords in no particular order.

The blade collided with the mouth of the sheath, and the clear clang shook the air.

Afterwards, Takeshi Hanheita put away his sword and said quietly:

"Mr. Qinghe, since you and I are already allies, as a token of our sincerity in forming an alliance, I will take the lead in being honest and honest."

"Although the Shinsengumi's current scale is staggering, in my opinion, it does have a lot of hidden dangers."

"The biggest hidden danger is that 'Tachibana Aoden has a unique and lofty status in the Shinsengumi'."

"Ju Qingden is like a huge pillar."

"He single-handedly maintained the existence and development of the Shinsengumi."

"However, it also created a dangerous situation where 'the Shinsengumi cannot do without Tachibana Aoden'."

"Nioh is here, and the Shinsengumi is here."

"If Nioh is gone, the Shinsengumi will be in danger."

"The prestige and ability of the other generals under Tachibana Aoden are not enough to lead the huge Shinsengumi."

"Therefore, the key to subverting the Shinsengumi lies in 'Tachibana Aoden's life and death'!"

"As long as Tachibana Aoden is killed, the Shinsengumi will not attack themselves!"

"I personally think that if you want to bring down Ju Qingden, you must first cut off his wings."

"Ju Qingden has the courage to be invincible."

"To kill him head-on is really a fool's errand."

"However, it would be much easier to deal with the cronies around him."

"Without the help of his close associates, no matter how capable Tachibana Aoden is, he will have nowhere to display his talents."

"So this is my plan: 'Clip its wings and leave it alone'!"

"Try every possible means to get rid of all of Tachibana Aoden's cronies! Then concentrate our efforts to kill Tachibana Aoden and eliminate the Shinsengumi!"

Qinghe Hachiro listened carefully.

After Wu Shi Banping finished speaking, he frowned slightly and looked like he was thinking.

After a while, he spoke slowly:

"What you said is indeed true knowledge and insight."

"But... in my opinion, your plan is not easy."

"All of Tachibana Aoden's cronies are nothing more than the 11 people from the 'Tribekan Faction' - Kondo Isamu, Hijikata Toshizo, Yamanan Keisuke, Okita Souji, Nagakura Shinpachi, Saito Ichi, Inoue Genzaburo, Toudo Heisuke

, Sanosuke Harada, Sanako Chiba and Mai Kinoshita.”

"If these people can be eliminated, Ju Qingden's power and prestige will indeed suffer a serious blow."

"But...with all due respect, these 11 people are not fuel-efficient."

"Even Sanako Chiba and Mai Kinoshita, who are both girls, have extraordinary courage."

"It's not that easy to get rid of them."

Takeshi Hanheita nodded slightly.

"Qinghe Jun, I understand your concerns."

"But...since I dare to propose such a plan, then I am certainly sure to make it happen!"

As he spoke, he changed into a cold tone that was neither sad nor happy.

"The cronies of Tachibana Aoden are very strong... Then I just need to send people who are stronger than them and are good at assassination to get rid of them, right?"





The next day, night——

Kyoto, somewhere——

"Tsk, it's so hot...!"

Todo Heisukero wiped the sweat from his forehead and kept complaining.

The air in summer is humid and sticky, without a trace of wind, and the heat is so sultry that it makes you breathless.

According to Japanese parlance, tonight is a standard "tropical night".

Today happens to be the day when the Eighth Division patrols Kyoto.

As the captain of the Eighth Division, Toudo Heisuke personally led the team to patrol the streets and perform his duties as usual.

Just when Heisuke Toudo was holding a lantern and leading dozens of team members to walk struttingly on a street in Kyoto, a lone, slender black shadow followed closely behind him...
