I started with the Shinsengumi in Bakumatsu

Chapter 150 A false alarm

"The Prime Minister's convoy was ambushed!"

A secret policeman ran back to the Kyoto Police Station and shouted, regardless of the risk of his identity being revealed.

"Just on the main road in Jiangzhou Longwang Town!"

The police officers who heard the shouting were stunned for a moment, and then they became chaotic like boiling water in a frying pan.

The noise outside attracted the attention of the people inside the building. Saito took a big step out and shouted: "Quiet, what happened!"

A police officer quickly came over and shouted: "Oh no, Mr. Saito, the Prime Minister's convoy has been attacked!"

Saito's expression changed, and he quickly turned around and ran into the building. Kanichiro Yoshimura happened to come over to say hello. Saito said coldly: "Assemble the team quickly!"

Then he quickly ran upstairs and broke into Isamu Kondo's office, where Souji Okita was chatting with Isamu Kondo with a playful smile.

The two of them were a little surprised when they saw Saitoichi breaking in. Kondo Isamu knew Saitoichi's character well and felt something was wrong. He asked, "What's wrong, Saito?"

"The Prime Minister was attacked!"

"What?" Isamu Kondo suddenly stood up and said in disbelief, "We didn't hear anything!"

Saitoichi immediately replied: "There are many implications behind it!"

Kondo Isamu immediately reacted and said: "The nobles must be dissatisfied, and there are also people within us who are involved! Quickly gather people and go to rescue the Prime Minister immediately!"

He looked at Souji Okita and said, "Souji, take your confidants with you and go to the Prime Minister's residence to protect your sister."

Okita Souji wondered: "What happened to my sister?"

Saito looked at Isamu Kondo and asked, "Director, didn't you tell the chief?"

Kondo Isamu then said: "The Prime Minister told me just two days ago that the Chief Secretary, your sister and the Prime Minister are already married."

Okita Souji is confused. His sister seems to be widowed and has two children. This...

"I understand." General Okita was confused and immediately called his team members to leave the police station.

And Kondo Isamu personally led the team and rushed to Jiangzhou Ryuoh Town for rescue.

Ryuoh Town borders Omi Hachiman Prefecture and is only a few dozen miles away from Hikone Castle. Yagyu solved the assassin who assassinated him and rushed to Hikone Castle overnight with the injured Tetsunosuke Ichimura.

Fortunately, Yagyu stopped the bleeding for Ichimura Tetsunosuke and arrived at Hikone Castle in time. Ichimura Tetsunosuke's life was saved, but he needed to recover because of the excessive blood loss.

As for the bullet-grazed wound on his body that had scabbed over, the doctor only performed simple treatment.

Yagyu entered Hikone Castle in some embarrassment, and the county magistrate and police chief in the city quickly came to confess.

He waved his hand and said: "Your dereliction of duty will be punished after investigation by the cabinet's inspection team. Now you send people to report to Kyoto, and also go to Ryuoh Town to help me gather the bodies of the guards and send them back to Kyoto for burial. "

The police chief immediately arranged for people to go to Ryuoh Town along the road, and happened to meet Isamu Kondo, Saito and others who came to support them.

Kondo Isamu was relieved to learn that Yagyu was safe and sound. He immediately arranged for people to collect the body and recover the guns. Then he and Saito rushed to Hikone Castle with a team of people.

At around ten o'clock in the evening, Kondo Isamu and Saito I met Yagyu.

Isamu Kondo immediately stepped forward to admonish: "Prime Minister, let's go back to Kyoto!"

Yagyu refused directly and said: "How can I back down just because of an assassination? Don't worry, no one can kill me. You just need to deploy a team of elites to follow me."

Kondo Isamu thought for a while, nodded and said: "I understand. The people involved in the assassination this time were all Saigo Takamori's disciples and admirers.

This group of people should be in Sazhou. I didn't expect that they could hide from our secret police and come to Jiangzhou. They also have Minie rifles. There must be cooperation from Sazhou nobles and others. "

Yagyu nodded and said, "It seems that these people finally couldn't hold it any longer. Shibusawa and the others left, and my control over the cabinet dropped a lot. They wanted to take this opportunity to kill me and seize power.

However, since their assassination failed this time, they will definitely not act rashly again. They should make other moves next. During this period, you must strengthen your control over Kyoto and wait for my return. "

Yagyu is not worried that things will turn upside down after he leaves Kyoto. The division commanders of the six Guards divisions in Kyoto are all confidants during the Shinsengumi period, and the mid-level and senior officers are all his own.

The guard battalion that defends the palace is also selected from the elite of the Guards Division. The commander of the guard battalion is Toudo Heisuke, who is also a confidant.

As long as the emperor and the army are in hand, no matter how much trouble these nobles make, it will be a small fight and nothing to be afraid of.

After the arrangements were made, Yagyu went to rest.

The next day, Kondo Isamu returned to Kyoto with Ichimura Tetsunosuke and others. Saito and 24 people together became Yagyu's escort and continued to escort Yagyu.

And Yagyu just started to inspect all aspects of Hikone Castle.

……

The news of Yagyu's assassination has spread in Kyoto. After all, Kondo Isamu and others were only focused on saving Yagyu and forgot to block the news. Shimazu Hisamitsu, Ohara Shigenori and others immediately entered the palace and ran to meet the emperor.

Emperor Meiji learned that Yagyu had been assassinated and hurriedly called Toudo Heisuke. Toudou Heisuke immediately comforted him: "The Prime Minister has been assassinated several times, and he has been solved easily by the Prime Minister every time. His Majesty the Emperor does not need to worry." Ohara Shigenori He immediately yelled and cursed: "What do you know, you fool? The prime minister was assassinated and the world was shocked. At this moment, your majesty should arrange for important ministers to take over the cabinet!"

Although Emperor Meiji was panicked, he was not stupid. He immediately said: "Immediately send someone to inquire about the news. I want to know the whereabouts of my father-in-law!"

Ohara Shigenori knew that now was a good opportunity, but he couldn't rush it, because the palace was guarded by the Imperial Guard Battalion, and the power in their hands was no match. Now they could only pray that Yagyu Nobita had been killed.

Eto Shinpei and others who secretly planned this matter are also waiting for news.

On the other side, Okita Souji led a team to the Prime Minister's Palace. Okita Jin was surprised by Okita Souji's behavior, but he quickly reacted and asked: "Souji, what do you mean?"

Okita Souji said nervously, "I'm here to protect you, sister."

"Protect?" Okitakin immediately felt something was wrong. This is the Prime Minister's residence. Who dares to be so presumptuous?If his younger brother actually came to protect him, then something big must have happened, and Yagyu-sama just left...

Okita Jin's expression changed, and he immediately stepped forward to grab Okita Souji's shoulders and asked, "Did something happen to him, sir?"

Okita Souji wanted to lie, but before he spoke, Okita Jin could see that her brother was about to lie. She immediately understood that something had happened to Yagyu, which made her very emotional.

"elder sister!"

Okita Jin only felt dizzy and his body was limp, but he was hugged by Okita Souji.

"Call the doctor!"

Not long after, Okita Jinyouyou woke up and saw Souji Okita staring at him curiously.

When Okita Souji saw his sister waking up, he said excitedly: "Sister, you may be pregnant!"

Okita Jin originally wanted to ask about Yagyu, but when he heard the news, he immediately became confused.

Okita Souji continued: "Maybe the time is too short, and the doctor is not sure, but there is indeed a reaction of happy pulse! Hahaha, I have another little nephew!"

Okitakin subconsciously touched her belly and smiled, but when she thought of Yagyu's incident, she immediately asked: "Soji, sir, what happened to him!"

Okita Souji immediately put away his smile and moved away.

Okita Jinhu said with a face: "Soji, if you don't say anything, I will break your legs!"

General Okita stopped immediately and hesitated: "Prime Minister, he, eh, was... assassinated..."

"Assassination?"

Okita Jin's body swayed and he was about to faint again.

Okita Souji quickly stepped forward and hugged him: "Sister, don't worry, the Prime Minister has been assassinated many times, he will be fine.

And Mr. Kondo and the others have already gone to provide support. Everything will be fine. You have to hold still, the baby in your belly can't stand the stimulation. "

After hearing this, Okita Jin calmed down a little. She said weakly: "Tell me the news as soon as possible."

Okita Souji laid his sister down and left the room to wait for news.

It wasn't until early in the morning that a police officer came to tell Souji Okita. Souji looked excited and immediately came to the bedroom where Okita Jin was lying down and taking a nap.

Okita Souji did not disturb him, but waited until dawn. Okita Jin woke up and saw his brother standing at the door, and asked hurriedly: "Is there any news?"

"Yes, the Prime Minister is fine. He is in Hikone Castle now. I heard that bullets with sword marks were found at the scene, as well as the Prime Minister's broken blade. I didn't expect that the Prime Minister's swordsmanship has improved and he can actually cut bullets with his sword. It's amazing! "

The more Okita Souji talked about, the more excited he became. Although his swordsmanship was now at the level of a swordsman, he was still unable to chop bullets with a sword. This required fast enough dynamic vision, reaction speed and slashing speed.

In short, he couldn't do this.

Okita Jin was relieved when she learned that Yagyu was fine. As for the knife, bullets and so on, she didn't care.

Kondo Isamu returned to Kyoto and came to the Prime Minister's residence as soon as possible. He already knew about Okita Jin's possible pregnancy.

He entered the room to meet Okita Kane and asked, "Do I need to tell the Prime Minister about this?"

Okitakin shook his head and said: "The doctor said that the pulse is unstable, and we can't confirm it until we check again in two months."

Isamu Kondo nodded and said: "That's good, the Prime Minister should be back by then."

He left the room and told Souji Okita: "You stay here, guard day and night, and never let anything happen to Mrs. Akin. Souji, you should understand that we all hope that the Prime Minister will have a child, regardless of gender."

Okita Souji is only two years younger than Yagyu. Although his mind is still like a boy, he knows a lot about the things in the world. He knows the importance of this matter.

Regardless of whether the child is a boy or a girl, as long as something happens to Yagyu, they will support him to inherit Yagyu's legacy.

However, it can be seen from Yagyu's force that this kind of thing is difficult to happen. After all, who can normal people chop bullets with a knife?Anyway, his chief executive couldn't do it.
