Time goes back to late at night on the 25th.

Did the Locust and the Japanese government really know nothing about the mutiny? That would be too underestimation to the Japanese, after all, gunfire can't be hidden.

In fact, when the guards of the General Staff opened fire, the sleeping locust suddenly got up from the bed, showing panic.

Since he was assassinated by the Koryo people at Sakurada Gate near the Imperial Palace a few years ago, his sleep has been poor and he is easily awakened.

The first thing he did after he got up was to shout to the attendant: "What happened? Why did there be gunshots in the imperial palace?"

Due to the urgent situation, Tianluo even forgot to say the so-called "Heyin"①, after all, he was anxious to find a translation to repeat his meaning.

"Your Majesty the Heavenly Locust, please leave with us."

The attendant did not answer, but instead helped the locust to leave directly and entered an underground air-raid shelter just a few dozen meters away from the bedroom.

Since the power of the bomber has been revealed in the European war, major countries have made corresponding preparations, especially the security of the heads.

Japan is no exception. In this temporary air raid shelter, the locust can contact important military and political agencies for remote command.

The first thing that the terrified locust did when he came to the air-raid shelter was to pick up the phone and ask the head of the guard division at the entrance of the palace.

The result was shocked by him. Someone was fighting in the direction of the General Staff Headquarters, and it was still continuing, and the two sides fought fiercely.

The locust immediately reacted that there was someone mutiny, and no country could infiltrate Tokyo quietly.

The United States cannot do it,

Red and Russian are not good either.

As for the Republic of China, it was not within his consideration at all. The bald head of state was not brave enough to support the other party in doing such a thing.

At the same time, other phones in the basement kept ringing, and cabinet members called to inquire about the situation of the Locust and the palace.

This made Tianlou quietly relieved. As long as there was no senior management involved in the mutiny, the unrest would easily subside, and it was nothing more than sending troops to suppress it.

But not long after, just as he was thinking about which unit was responsible for the counter-insurgency mission, three bad news came from outside the air raid shelter.

The gunfire of the General Staff stopped.

Unidentified troops approached outside the imperial residence.

The guard division on duty had abnormal movements.

The Emperor almost fainted when he heard the news. The first message was just a matter of fact, and the second and third ones exploded in his head like thunder.

Where is Tokyo? Without the military order of the General Staff Headquarters, no one is allowed to mobilize a soldier without authorization, let alone to the palace.

Just thinking about it, this unknown army certainly had bad intentions, perhaps it was for the ruler of the empire.

The Guards Division is the most periphery and most important defensive force on the palace, equipped with two killing weapons: heavy machine guns and infantry cannons.

Once the two are in harmony inside and outside, the attendants equipped with pistols in the palace will never be able to resist, and the Locust will immediately prepare to contact the Army Province.

In the event that the General Staff may lose control, the nominal Supreme Military Agency of Japan, the Army Province, cannot have any more accidents.

The contact result made Tianluo extremely disappointed and frightened. No one from the Army Province, which should have been on duty for 24 hours, answered his call.

The locust was in chaos and wanted to notify the police department to send someone. Now the army can no longer believe it, but unfortunately it is impossible to connect.

General Staff Headquarters,

Army Province,

Police Department.

The loss of contact in these three places means that the Tokyo defense system is completely paralyzed. It seems that the traitors have clear goals and are well prepared.

In addition, being able to occupy so many important mechanisms in a short period of time means that there are a large number of enemies, and this matter will not end easily.

He let go of the phone dejectedly, and the locust turned around in the dark and narrow basement like a trapped beast, and the attendants also had their faces ashen.

It feels very uncomfortable to be unable to do anything and to passively accept fate, especially for people like them.

Twenty minutes later,

The Guards Division first reported that soldiers who had previously had abnormal movements had been disarmed and were under strict supervision and were waiting for subsequent review.

Only Hashi Kimiya was missing in the third regiment. It was inferred that he had escaped from the imperial palace while taking advantage of the chaos. It was likely that the other party incited the soldiers.

The evidence is that the other party has made sensitive remarks in the military many times, clamoring that the country has fallen to this point is the responsibility of the chaebols.

Then, the officer in charge of today's warning kneeled at the door of the palace to cut a caesarean section in order to obtain the forgiveness of the locust and avoid placing his family.

If a person who is in a vicious guard division who needs the most is in danger, someone must take responsibility. It can only be said that this person is not lucky.

After a while, the locust received another piece of information that was difficult to distinguish between true and false, and the navy blocked the army soldiers who were trying to make trouble outside the imperial palace.

According to those who came to report the news, the rebels were radicals of the imperial sect, and the demand for this mutiny was to respect the emperor and eliminate the traitors.

Imperial Taoist Sect!

Tianluo frowned. If it weren't for the foreign ministers present, he really wanted to curse Baga and hang all the bastards in the imperial Taoist sect.

He had long known that the Imperial Taoist sect had some rebellious thoughts, but in order to balance the ruling sect, he chose to turn a blind eye or even favor it.

Unexpectedly, they were so brave that they dared to rebel and let his holy grace down. Why would such an unfaithful minister stay without killing him?

Besides, mutiny is mutiny. Why is it close to the palace? It is clearly necessary to act unjustly on the grounds of respecting the emperor, and his intentions are punished.

When Tianlou was furious, he suddenly felt that things were a bit difficult. The Imperial Sect had many supporters in the army, and tough suppression might be risky.

He had just experienced abnormal movements in the Guards Division, and he had only one idea, which was not trustworthy for everyone, so he had to pay attention to the methods and methods of dealing with this matter.

You must never come forward.

Yes, no.

The locust slowly calmed down, and everyone knew that the Imperial Taoist sect was concerned about the sufferings of the people. If he came forward to suppress it, it would affect his prestige.

So he has to stand on the side of the people, at least pretend to stand on the side of the people or be neutral, and wait for the development of the incident before making plans.

Let the military resolve the mutiny, so that no matter what the result is, no one can count the responsibility on him.

When the dust settles, come out and make a gesture, and then continue to lead the country to become more stable.

After thinking about the countermeasure, Tianluo's expression immediately became indifferent. She sat back to the center of the air-raid shelter, and returned to her former majesty.

As time passed, more and more attendants and officials came to Jin to meet, including Gangcun, the intelligence minister of the General Staff Headquarters.

Although the mutiny troops controlled the main agencies such as the General Staff Headquarters, due to time constraints, most of the officers had not come to work.

In addition, all forces have long known about the existence of mutiny, so they cannot be foolishly waiting to be arrested, and all the important figures are hiding in safe places.

After hearing that the General Staff Headquarters was controlled by the rebels, Danggang Village immediately led its confidants to the military police headquarters, which was heavily guarded by the rebels.

Here, he resumed the operation of the General Staff Headquarters and successfully contacted the troops from all over the country, so he went to the palace.

Seeing the Tianlou, Gangcun reported the latest news about the mutiny, which shocked the Tianlou and the ministers in the air-raid shelter.

Prime Minister Keisuke Okada was killed.

Home Minister Saito Mi was killed.

The Minister of the Tibetan Takahashi was killed in the Qing Dynasty.

Education Director Yutaro Watanabe was killed.

Former Inner Minister Makino was killed.

Duke Wang of Xiyuan Temple was killed.

Tianluo almost fainted after hearing this. None of the killed people was the ones of the Japanese Empire, and no one was a meritorious minister.

The dignified naval general, the empire's Count, Duke, Prime Minister, and Foreign Ministers actually died at the hands of their own people. What is the country?

The grief-inspired Tianlou decided to immediately order the troops controlled by the commanders near Tokyo to assemble as soon as possible and cooperate with the Guards Division to suppress the rebels.

But before he could speak, Komura gritted his teeth and said again: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Excellency Kantaro Suzuki's private residence was also attacked."

"What!"

The locust couldn't calm down. He didn't care about what happened to Suzuki Kantaro. The other party's wife was the close elder who raised him since childhood.

He widened his eyes and asked in a low voice: "What's the result? Did the damn thief hurt Mr. Suzuki's family?"

"Report to Your Majesty."

Gangmeng knelt on his knees and leaned down with his head: "The rebels sent a team to commit crimes and killed the guards who protected Lord Suzuki.

Just as the tragedy was about to happen, Lin Fu's legitimate son Lin Fuyilang passed by and found someone assassinating the minister and immediately brought someone to support him.

With His Majesty's blessing, the family of Suzuki's family was unscathed. The enemy has temporarily retreated. I will immediately send a military police to protect it."

call.

The locust exhaled and sat back and fell into silence. After a long time, he looked up at the ministers, but found that one person was missing.

He looked puzzled and summoned his left and right, "Where is my army minister? Have I also been killed by the rebels? Can anyone tell me?"

People present look at me, look at you, they are all busy running for life or understanding the situation, but no one really pays attention to where Yoshinoko Kawashima is.

The reason is very simple. The other party is a completely unintentional person. He was originally a puppet supported by the Imperial Sect and the Commander Sect.

Tianluo hummed, it seemed that he had to be prepared to lose another Army Minister. Forget it, the farce should be over.
