Chapter 715: Attack Our Own People First

"Damn Cornelia! You actually make your own decisions again!"

The content and process of the joint military exercise have been discussed in advance. Shumu Xuanwu and the people from the Six Families of Kyoto who do not understand military affairs only need to instruct the people below to follow the process to ensure that there will be no surprises in the negotiated results, and the final acceptance will be done. enough.

But now, Cornelia actually informed them that tomorrow's joint coastal defense exercise would be temporarily adjusted and would not follow the agreed upon script, which made them feel bad.

Moreover, Cornelia did not discuss with them, but directly informed them and asked them to prepare in advance.

"Okay, is it useful for you to get angry here? Will Cornelia change her mind?"

"The question is how should we respond!? This joint military exercise is the best opportunity to stabilize domestic unrest. If another accident occurs, not only will our plan be ruined, but it will even aggravate domestic unrest and even cause unrest!"

"Be prepared. The eyes of the whole world are looking at Sakura Country. Even Cornelia and Yang Hui don't dare to mess around."

"But how can we prepare? We don't even know what they are going to do!"

"..."

Everyone was silent. If it comes to business and politics, they are good at it, but military... they are not good at it.

"Hey, let's inform Akamatsu."

"How can this be done!?" As soon as this proposal was uttered, it was met with strong opposition. "Chisong and his young faction have been looking for opportunities to kick us out of power and return to our former glory. If we inform Chisong, wouldn't we be entrusting our lives to him?" On his hand?"

"Calm down and don't let anger and paranoia cloud your judgment."

"Then tell me, did I make a mistake?"

"That's right, but it's not right either." Shumu Xuanwu thought about it and found out that this choice has pros and cons. The cons are just like what I just said. Once Chisong seizes this opportunity to rebuild the glory of the Young Heroes, they will lose their own His life was in Chisong's hands, and with Shumu Xuanwu's understanding of Chisong, he would not be merciful.

But on the plus side, the joint military exercise has just begun. Cornelia and Yang Hui are not willing to be lonely and want to create some accidents. Once an accident occurs, the Sakura Army's performance in the joint military exercise is not good, and the country is very worried. There could be unrest, so...

Before the accident occurs, the command of the military performance should be handed over to Akamatsu and the remaining Young Masters. If any accident occurs... it will have nothing to do with Shumu Xuanwu and the Six Families of Kyoto. All responsibilities will be held by Akamatsu and the Young Masters. bear.

"Well... if you put it that way, it's indeed okay."

"It's just...what if Chisong defeats Cornelia and Yang Hui?"

"Haha, Chisong defeated Cornelia and Yang Hui?" Shumu Xuanwu shook his head, "Since the defeat in the last war, Chisong has been staying on the island. His mind is still stuck in the last war. How could it be possible? The opponent of [Witch] and [Nightmare]?”

"So, this is a gamble. No, no, it can't even be called a gamble. Our victory is already destined."

"That's right."

"Then inform Chisong and let him take full responsibility for this joint military exercise starting tomorrow."

"By the way, how's the matter with Todo going?"

"Todo has been controlled. The results of the interrogation yielded nothing. He insisted that he had no dealings with Bunitalia. Yang Hui defeated him in an upright manner."

"Oh, do you believe it?"

"Based on my understanding of Todo, I believe it, but from the perspective of common sense, I don't believe it. No, I should say I can't believe it."

"Yes, a teenage boy defeated that Todo openly in martial arts, haha."

"Continue to investigate, his family..."

"This is also the main reason why he is not allowed to participate in military exercises. His wife and children are missing."

"Gone?"

"Yes, he disappeared mysteriously. Our people didn't find any trace. It seems that Todo has already anticipated his ending."

"Well... Akamatsu is the only one who can do this."

"It would be fine if it was Akamatsu. Todo is Akamatsu's right-hand man, and it is natural for him to protect his family. I'm afraid..."

"...Check it. If that's the case, we...no, the future of Sakura Country..."

…

At this time, Akamatsu, who was at Itsukushima base, showed excitement and excitement on his face after receiving the notice.

"Have you finally let me wait for this day? Hahahaha..."

"Your Excellency General, please give the order!" XN

"Well, convey this information to the entire army participating in the exercise, and send people to supervise the participating naval fleets. These damn cowards actually took away my navy while I was losing power, but...hehe, you guys No matter how you took it away, I will get it back!"

"Hi!"XN

"Order the Army's 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Divisions to prepare. Joint coastal defense is just an appetizer. The real battle is yet to come."

"Hi!"XN

"By the way, have Todo's wife and children been found?" Chisong asked.

"I'm very sorry, General, we haven't found it yet."

"Really..." After receiving the bad news, Akamatsu's expression darkened. Todo Kaishiro was his right-hand man, the most powerful force in his hands, and one of his most promising successors.

He absolutely did not believe the rumors that Todo Keishiro had collaborated with the enemy and treason, and was defeated intentionally. He knew that Todo Keishiro was an upright man, loyal to the country and his compatriots, and would never betray the country and the nation.

He also watched the entire duel between Yang Hui and Toudo Keishiro through live broadcast. Having experienced many battles, he could really see that Toudo Keishiro had tried his best, and Yang Hui was indeed very powerful.

After the duel, Akamatsu expected that Sogi Genbu and the Six Families of Kyoto would take action against Todo Keishiro. Regardless of whether Todo Keishiro really betrayed him or not, he would be sacrificed as a reminder to the people.

Therefore, Akamatsu immediately ordered his subordinates to protect Toudo Keishiro's family to prevent his family from being implicated in this confession. This was the last thing Akamatsu could do for Toudo Keishiro.

However, what made Akamatsu angry was that his men actually arrived a step late. When they arrived, Todo Kaishiro's family had disappeared, and no traces could be traced.

"Get ready. After the military exercise, we will pick them up."

"Regarding this, Your Majesty General, my subordinates believe that...it may not be the Shumu family and the Six Kyoto families who captured them."

"What did you say?" Chisong's pupils tightened, "What is going on? Please explain it clearly to me."

"That's right. The people below reported that people from the Shumu family and the Six Kyoto families were also investigating their traces and conducted an investigation. They determined that the other party was not deliberately making a gesture to confuse us, so..."

"So what you're saying is that Todo's family was not in their hands, but was taken away by an unknown force?"

"Yes."

"Well... Right now, in Sakura Country, the only forces that can be so clean, apart from us and the Six Kyoto Families, are..." Akamatsu didn't finish his sentence, but he already had guesses and judgments.

"General, do you need me to contact you?"

"...No, not for the time being." Although Akamatsu was also anxious to confirm whether his guess was right or wrong, now was not the time to contact the other party. A new round of war between the young faction and the conservative faction had already begun. Kaishiro Toudo He has already folded in, and he can no longer give the conservatives any leverage.

"However, with speculation, the investigation will have a direction. Let's investigate first."

"yes."

"By the way, if I remember correctly, does the Bunitalia Empire also have a prince and a princess in the Sakura Kingdom?"

"Yes, Lelouch V. Bunitalia and Nunnally V. Bunitalia came to our country two years ago as a symbol of friendship."

"Is it a symbol of friendship... Haha, it's really ironic. Send someone to keep an eye on these brothers and sisters. If necessary..."

"As commanded."

…

The next day, all the soldiers participating in the joint coastal defense became nervous because they received the news that the content of the exercise had been changed and no longer followed the original script. As for what kind of changes, they did not know.

Compared to the soldiers of the Bunitalia Empire, the Sakura Kingdom's army was even more impetuous, because Akamatsu, the once legendary general of the Sakura Kingdom, reappeared and took over the overall command of the joint military exercise.

Regarding this sudden change, the Sakura Kingdom army was immediately divided into two factions. One group expressed distrust and rejection of Akamatsu's efforts, while the other group was very supportive and proudly declared: "Under the leadership of General Akamatsu, we will definitely be able to provide A profound lesson for those proud Bunitalians!”

This news naturally reached the ears of Yang Hui, Cornelia and others. At this time, they were no longer spectators behind the Bunitalian army. Instead, more than a dozen people secretly sneaked into the camp near the coast of Sakura Country. An uninhabited island.

"Haha, Shumu Xuanwu and his group figured this out by shirking responsibility." Yang Hui smiled flatly.

"Chisong, he is just a defeated general." Cornelia sneered confidently, then looked at Yang Hui, "What is your battle plan?"

"My ultimate goal is here."

"Itsukushima!?" Cornelia's eyes widened. Not to mention that Itsukushima base was not within the scope of the exercise area. Itsukushima's defense was very tight and could not be broken without a dozen Knightmare people.

"Well, the first step is to attack our first fleet..."

"What the hell? Attacking our army?" Cornelia and the others were puzzled and surprised.

"Well, we definitely can't take Itsukushima with just a dozen of us, so... I plan to borrow some equipment."

"Borrow equipment...Knightmare!"

"Yes, and our aircraft are all on the flagship of the First Fleet."

"...Then why bother? Isn't it better to just bring the machine with you?" Cornelia asked.

"Please, Sister Huang, we are pirates now. How could pirates get such advanced Knightmare?" Yang Hui complained.

"Um...so you made arrangements early in the morning? Aren't you afraid that your own people will cause trouble for you?"

"Of course, I originally planned to take this opportunity to beat our army. Too many victories have made them feel a little dizzy."

"Hmm...Okay, I understand. If something goes wrong, I will help you with it, and you can go ahead and do it." Cornelia also noticed what Yang Hui said. As Knightmare entered the third chapter, In the fifth generation, technological innovation brought powerful military power and made the expansion of the empire easier.

On the contrary, the ease of victory also affected the mentality of the soldiers. They began to become arrogant and arrogant. If they did not take a beating, they would easily lose their lives on the battlefield.

So Cornelia also strongly supports Yang Hui's decision.

"Then I'll bother Sister Huang." As he said that, Yang Hui looked at his watch and raised the corner of his mouth, "Okay everyone, there are still three minutes left, let's enjoy the pirate game."
