Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 1001 Attack and Kill
After receiving the task, Ichiro Matsuno immediately arranged more than 20 ninjas and divided them into several teams to fly to Berlin.

As an assassin organization that has existed for hundreds of years, Ozunu began purchasing orphans of all skin colors from some merchants two or three hundred years ago.

Therefore, when carrying out missions in Europe and the United States, there is no need to worry about being suspected by people with all Asian faces.

It took the five teams two days to meet up in a forest outside Dublin.

However, Olivia specifically reminded us that for this operation, if we can use guns, we should not use cold weapons.

Of course, this is not a hard and fast requirement.

Although Ao Zunu works closely with Chu Xiangqian, it does not mean that they will not accept tasks issued by others.

Moreover, ninjas also like to send a letter filled with black sand to the target of the mission in advance.

Plus, they like to use swords and hidden weapons to kill targets, which makes it too easy for people to guess that they are the ones who did it.

Who knows, they might become suspicious or find out that Chu Xiangqian was responsible.

Ozil's style can only be said to have both advantages and disadvantages.

In ancient times, even if you knew that Aozu had killed someone in anger, it was extremely difficult to find them.

Therefore, leaving an obvious mark will help expand my fame and tell my employer that I was the one who killed the person.

But in modern society, exchanges between countries are becoming more and more frequent, and if we still do this, the risk of exposure will increase exponentially.

In Chu Xiangqian's eyes, the cost outweighs the gain.

So every time he gave Ozunu a mission, he would rather pay them more and ask them to use guns instead of swords.

The reason why the Matsuno family values ​​Chu Xiangqian so much is ultimately because of money.

Tiger bone wine and deer glue have made a lot of money for the Matsuno family over the years.

Not to mention helping Chu Xiangqian kill the Irish, even assassinating high-ranking Japanese officials would be no problem.

Moreover, as Ichiro Matsuno's wealth grew, Chu Xiangqian had originally planned to help him return to Ozunu, preferably to his brother.

That is, he was killed by Matsuno Masayuki, the successor of Ozunu.

Unexpectedly, Matsuno Shinyuki, who looked at his elder brother who was kicked out of Neon and lost the right of inheritance, is actually getting better and better.

After a long time, I began to feel unbalanced.

Ichiro Matsuno didn't even have to do it himself. In 73, Masayuki Matsuno saw that his father was in good health.

He actually didn't think straight and wanted to kill his own father, Matsuno Shinta, and take the position himself.

Then they put the blame on Ichiro Matsuno.

Unfortunately, before the plan even started, Matsuno Masayuki was betrayed by his confidant.

The reason is very simple. Ichiro Matsuno is not short of money. He not only bribed the people around his younger brother Masayuki.

Even a confidant of his father Zhentai was defeated by the money.

So just as Makoto was about to take action, the news was passed to Ichiro Matsuno.

Ichiro also immediately passed the news to his father Shinta's confidant.

This allowed Matsuno Shinta to suppress Makoto before he could make a move.

However, Makoto is not as lucky as Ichiro was back then.

Not only was he executed, but the person who did it was Ichiro, who was called back by Matsuno Shinta.

Ichiro agreed immediately to kill his own brother.

When he took action, he was decisive and didn't waste any time talking to Shinko. He just stabbed Shinko's heart with a knife.

Then he pulled out his knife and cut off Shinko's neck with one blow.

That kind of ruthlessness and cold-bloodedness actually made Matsuno Shinta very satisfied.

To be honest, the thinking of Japanese people is indeed quite different from that of Chinese people.

This may be related to the fact that Japan has frequent earthquakes and a small territory.

There is always a sense of pessimism and doomsday in the culture.

From then on, Ichiro Matsuno became the successor of Ozunushin.

However, Ichiro Matsuno listened to Chu Xiangqian's advice very much, as his father, Shinta Matsuno, was almost 70 years old.

But he is in very good health.

Not only does he like to train elite ninjas himself, but I heard he also often competes with his female disciples.

And the older the old man gets, the less willing he is to give up power.

Rather than staying in Ozunu and ending up like his damn brother, Ichiro Matsuno might as well stay outside.

When Matsuno Shinta wants to hand over power one day, he will go back.

In fact, Ichiro Matsuno was not very willing to stay in the old nest.

From being exiled in 60 to 73, I stayed outside for a total of 13 years.

I have long been accustomed to life in this world of pleasure.

Moreover, Chu Xiangqian gave him one to two million US dollars every year to train ninjas.

Plus the team members who were exiled with him that year.

Ichiro Matsuno already has more than 30 elite soldiers who have undergone brutal training and survived.

Therefore, he was not worried at all that he would be sidelined by the elders when he took over Ozunu in the future.

Moreover, this guy thought the same as Chu Xiangqian. When he encountered a difficult task, he would look for the ninjas under his father.

After the 20 ninjas arrived at the gathering place, Ichiro Matsuno also appeared in the forest with two veterans, Nishimura and Ohno, and eight ninjas trained over the years.

Since Chu Xiangqian was going to take action, it was of course impossible for him to just kill the leader of the extremist faction that split from the Irish Republican Army.

In the past month and a half, Chu Xiangqian has found a total of 235 members of Victor's group.

Most of them are just ordinary people.

They usually only collect intelligence, transmit messages and provide logistical support.

And most of them live in Yingguo.

However, the harm posed by this group of people is very small, so Chu Xiangqian put them in the second batch of the elimination list.

The remaining fifty or sixty people are basically hiding in Northern Ireland.

Even mostly in Belfast.

There are about a dozen more who remain in Europe and are most at risk.

In recent years, most of the important Yinggua personnel who were killed in Europe were killed by these dozen people.

So after raiding Victor's manor, the ninjas will be divided into 5 groups and start cleaning up the people from Northern Ireland.

Ichiro Matsuno and his men will fly to Europe and eliminate those dozen people one by one.

To achieve this, intelligence is very important.

It can even be said that intelligence is the key to determining the success or failure of an operation.

Chu Xiangqian could actually hand the news over to the Yinggua people and let them take charge.

But he was worried that there was a traitor among the Yinggua people.

No, there must be a traitor.

If the action fails, the retaliation will definitely be more intense in the future, and they might even target me.

Chu Xiangqian couldn't gamble, nor did he want to gamble.

At 11 o'clock in the evening in Dublin, all the ninjas were equipped with guns and swords, and were wearing black ninja uniforms.

Under the watchful eyes of a dozen sparrows, cats and dogs, they were divided into six groups and quietly sneaked into Victor's manor.

What the ninjas didn't know was that if they failed to kill Victor.

The two black cats lurking in Victor's villa will kill Victor under Chu Xiangqian's command.

The Irish Republican Army is, after all, just a paramilitary organization.

Even if a few elite soldiers came from the army, or even elite soldiers from elite units, their numbers were still too small. Moreover, the difference between the soldiers of this era and the special forces of several decades later was still very large.

Not to mention, we encountered an organization that has been engaged in assassinations for hundreds of years.

The sentry posts outside the manor were easily cleared out by the ninjas.

Although Chu Xiangqian requested the use of firearms, the ninjas would not necessarily follow their employer's requirements when performing their mission.

And the worst that could happen afterwards was that they could just burn all the bodies, and then they wouldn't have to worry about the Irish and Lan Republican Army suspecting them based on the wounds.

After killing the people outside the manor, the five members of Ozunu and the team under Ichiro Matsuno began to communicate with each other through gestures.

Each team is then responsible for an area, or the enemies in a house.

However, the ninjas did not rush to take action.

Instead, the other teams will wait until the two teams that have sneaked into the main building take action first before they start to clean up the other people in the manor.

Five minutes later, a burst of dull gunfire was heard.

Even though the ninjas in the main building had their guns equipped with silencers, the sound was still quite loud in the middle of the night when the gunfire was intense.

Chu Xiangqian looked through the sparrow and saw with his own eyes that Victor, his wife, and two children were shot into sieves by ninjas using MP5s. Only then did he nod with satisfaction.

For ninjas, as long as they are the target of the mission, they don’t care whether they are old or young.

Moreover, East Asians have always liked to root out problems at their roots.

The ninjas of Onunu, even if they are white or black, have long been assimilated into East Asian culture and thinking.

You won't even feel guilty when you do it.

After Victor was killed, gunshots were heard from time to time in the manor.

Those semi-militarized Republican forces were no match for the well-intentioned sneak attacks and hidden ninjas.

It was also the first time that the ninjas discovered that the MP5 was definitely a magic gun in street fighting.

Especially the models with foldable stocks, which have strong firepower, small recoil and very high accuracy.

Even if you are not someone who practices shooting all year round, you can easily control it.

This also made Ozu's angry ninja realize that cold weapons and hidden weapons were really backward.

In particular, it takes ten or twenty years to train an elite ninja.

But a gunner only needs three to five years.

However, the advantages of cold weapons are also very obvious.

Infiltrate assassinations, swords and hidden weapons are more secretive.

In the past, all the enemies in the manor might have died, and no one would know how they died.

After five minutes, most of the targets were killed.

The two Republican Army members who managed to escape had their throats scratched by the cat guarding outside.

Only then did Ichiro Matsuno bring Nishimura, Ono and three ninjas into the manor.

Start confirming one by one to see if all the targets that need to be eliminated have been eliminated.

After making sure it was completed, Ichiro Matsuno simply had all the bodies thrown into the main building.

If you get gasoline from the vehicle's tank, pour it up and down the main building.

By the time Dublin police arrived at the scene, all the buildings in the estate had been burning for more than an hour.

Moreover, the finances of the manor were also looted by the ninjas.

Only then did they begin to retreat.

It can be seen that the efficiency of the foreign police in this era is indeed very low.

Now that the primary target Victor has been eliminated, the ninjas returned to the assembly point and followed Ichiro Matsuno's instructions.

Divide into teams of 4 and head towards the next mission target.

The two teams closest to the target arrived in Belfast three hours later before daybreak.

Once you find the target, sneak in and take action directly.

The gunshots in the early morning scared the neighbors around the target's house, and they quickly called the police.

By the time the police arrived at the scene, it was already daybreak.

Moreover, throughout this day, calls to the police were received from time to time in Belfast.

But by the time the police arrived, the murderer was long gone.

Chu Xiangqian was staying in the capital city, and it was already night.

But he didn't sleep all night.
The target being watched by sparrows, cats and dogs is not a fool who turns a deaf ear to what is happening outside.

When you hear from the radio or from your accomplices that the targets of the attack are all your own people.

They immediately guessed that someone was targeting them.

The first thought was that the Yinggua people had begun to take revenge.

So Chu Xiangqian spent the whole night recording the hiding locations of the escaped Republican troops.

A day passed and it was night in Belfast.

Chu Xiangqian gathered all the new information and used the radio in the Novice Village to send a message to Kumiko in Hong Kong Island.

Those Republican troops who were hiding thought they were temporarily safe.

But when the ninja came to his door, he mistakenly believed that there must be a traitor in his group.

And this person should have a very high status.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to know where the safe house where you are hiding is.

Chu Xiangqian heard through the cat the words of a Republican soldier who had managed to escape again. He felt that letting a few targets go might not be a bad thing.

The Irish Republican Army was divided into two factions.

A group of people said they gave up on using force to take back Northern Ireland, but in fact, even a fool knew that these people said they gave up, but in fact they must be secretly supporting radicals like Victor.

Even if you are a dove today, you may become a radical tomorrow.

Therefore, even if Chu Xiangqian defeated Victor's group this time, it does not mean that the entire Irish Republican Army was defeated.

Then, if we let go a few radical elements who suspect that there are traitors or traitors among our own ranks, it will most likely lead to internal strife in the Republican Army.

If this organization fights itself, it will not be able to achieve anything for a long time in the future.

Moreover, that night, Matsuno's team, which had already arrived in West Germany, also began to clean up a three-man Republican Army team that specialized in assassinations.

The suspicion that there was a traitor inside instantly became more and more prevalent.

In the following week, Ozu's angry men carried out assassinations everywhere.

When conditions permit, they will even shoot at targets directly on the street.

The commotion was a bit loud, but this time Downing Street withstood all the external pressure and did not make a single call to Chu Xiangqian.

The meaning is very clear. Since we have already started, and Chu Xiangqian has done an excellent job.

Then kill as many as you can.

The Republican Army, which was specialized in assassinations and terrorist activities, was immediately panicked.

In addition to the speed and cleanliness of the clearance, the most frightening thing is that the intelligence work of this operation was done so well.

In particular, several Republican Army groups operating in Europe were wiped out by Ichiro Matsuno and his men in just three days.

The Republican Army suddenly lost its sharpest trump card.

Moreover, all the middle and senior leaders of Victor's faction were killed without leaving a single one alive.

Not to mention the Republican Army, even the Americans and European countries are worried and deeply wary of the Yingguo people's intelligence capabilities.

Insiders such as Sayil, Philips, Norton, and Mountbatten were also worried and afraid about Chu Xiangqian's ability to collect intelligence.
