Chapter 248 On the verge of breaking out
"You're going to split Inazuma!"
Hearing what Jiuqi Shinobu said,
Wang Hao's expression was stiff, his eyes flickered, and the whole atmosphere was so frozen that even the air seemed filled with awkwardness.
In fact, even if Wang Hao does not admit it, what he is doing now is indeed to split Inazuma.
What is the foundation of a country?
The barrage had already told Wang Hao this: people should be the priority.
As the saying goes: If you keep the land but lose the people, both the people and the land will be lost; if you keep the people but lose the land, both the people and the land will be kept.
Talent is the foundation of a country.
And now, according to the spread of the new order among the lower classes of Inazuma,
If Wang Hao wanted to take all these people away, then a space at the bottom of Inazuma would be left blank.
This is tantamount to a split for Inazuma.
Facing Jiuqi's questioning gaze,
Wang Hao thought for a moment, then explained: "Senior sister, you are worrying too much. If I want to split Inazuma, the first person who will not agree will be General Lei Dian."
"Please rest assured, Senior Sister, the situation is not as serious as you think."
"I will take my followers away, but that must be after the general lifts the isolation order and the eye hunting order."
"By that time, Inazuma society will have stabilized again, and there won't be as many people willing to leave with me as there are now."
"So it can't be called splitting Inazuma. To be more precise, taking those who are disappointed with General Raiden away from Inazuma is also a good thing for Inazuma."
Wang Hao was not talking nonsense.
What he said makes sense.
Even though the new order is spreading widely now, it seems that many of Ming Shen's followers have defected.
But in fact, this is not the case.
There are very few true believers or fanatics of the new order.
Except for the war refugees, most of the people at the lower level of Inazuma who were converted to Christianity were shallow believers, casual believers, or even non-believers who just helped out and shouted for benefits.
How could the belief in Mingshen, which has been deeply rooted in Inazuma for thousands of years, be shaken by Wang Hao in just a few months?
If the shogunate had not been really unkind in recent years, the Inazuma people would have reported Wang Hao directly as soon as he started preaching.
Therefore,
Once General Raiden changed his ways and abolished the isolation order and the eye hunting order,
Many of those who now follow the New Order will soon be back under Narukami's command.
They believe in a new order to end the days of suffering.
Then the suffering is over and they will naturally return to their original lives.
Wang Hao couldn't take these people away at all.
Just like he said, the believers he could really take away were
There are only war refugees and some people who are completely disappointed with the faith of Ming Shen.
And it is beneficial to Inazuma if these people leave her.
Their beliefs are different, and if you put them together, something bad will definitely happen.
Of course, what Wang Hao didn’t tell Jiuqi Shinobu was that even this small group of people might number tens of thousands.
After all, the inhumane behavior of the Inazuma shogunate over the years has indeed hurt too many families.
As an island nation, Inazuma doesn't have a large population, much smaller than Liyue, and a small part of the population is not Inazuma people at all, they are Kaigi people.
Now Wang Hao is going to take away tens of thousands of people. For Inazuma, it will either be a split or a blow to her vitality.
As he spoke, Wang Hao looked at Jiuqi Shinobu seriously again and said to her in a soothing tone, "Besides, if I want to take people away, I will definitely get General Lei Dian's permission. Sister, you can rest assured about this."
After listening to Wang Hao's long speech,
Jiuqi Shinobu didn't speak directly, but thought carefully.
After discovering that he and the Arotaki sect were being plotted against by Wang Hao, Jiuqi Shinobu understood one thing.
Either disband the Aratake faction and let the boss keep a low profile, or leave Inazuma Castle and become a wanderer in the countryside.
Only in this way can they continue to stay in Inazuma.
Otherwise, when society stabilizes, the powerful who regain power will definitely not allow the Aradaki faction, a vibrant, organized and influential social group, to continue to exist.
This isn't a question of like or not, this is simply a matter of butt.
When necessary, the Aradaki faction is naturally a good tool to open up the situation.
But after stabilizing, the Aradaki faction itself became an unstable factor.
So, when Shinobu Kuki came to her senses, she knew that Inazuma could no longer stay.
Her original idea was to take Arawaki Ito and the others to Liyue first.
She had connections with the academy there, so it was easy for her to settle down in the Arakaki faction.
Anyway, the boss is very strong and can support the entire gang by working at the dock.
Moreover, after going to Liyue, it was equivalent to the Aradaki faction giving up the influence of Inazuma.
Once the hype around the parade has died down a bit, when they return to Inazuma, those dignitaries will treat them with courtesy instead.
Because they are no longer a threat, treating them with courtesy will gain you a good reputation.
But now, according to Wang Hao, he is not going to take them to Liyue, but on the contrary, to open up a new country.
This aroused Jiuqi Shinobu's interest.
If it was about splitting up the Inazuma, then Kuki Shinobu would definitely not agree.
She might even break up with Wang Hao.
After all, no matter how lame Inazuma is, it is still Shinobu Kuki's homeland.
There was no way she would just watch Wang Hao split up Inazuma. What she would do was to break up with him directly and drive Wang Hao away from Inazuma.
But now, Wang Hao has made it clear that he will definitely get the consent of General Lei Dian before taking his men away from Inazuma.
This made Jiuqi Shinobu feel much better.
If the general agrees, then it won't be a split, it will be a 'peaceful breakup'.
So, let’s get back to Wang Hao’s invitation.
Jiuqi Shinobu felt that it was possible to agree to it.
The people of the Aradaki faction are not law-abiding people.
They may be good people, but they all crave adventure.
The people of the Aradaki faction would not refuse to participate in the development of a new country.
Even Aradaki Ichito would think it was an honor and that he was valued by others, and he would probably show off everywhere.
"Well…"
After thinking for a while, Jiuqi Shinobu spoke,
"Then let's wait until the lockdown and the Eye Hunting Order are lifted."
She did not agree directly, and she still needed to discuss this matter with Ara Taki Ichito.
Moreover, many of the things Wang Hao said did not come true. After being tricked by Wang Hao just now, Jiuqi Shinobu now dares not easily trust his junior.
"Hahaha, then please watch this good show carefully, Senior Sister."
Wang Hao knew that Jiuqi Shinobu was already moved, and immediately revealed a sincere smile.
……
the other side,
Society practice,
"Sir, Kujo Sara has already left with the elite troops of the Tenryo Bugyo, and they are probably near Konda Village now."
A ninja who was about to reach the end of his career reported to Kamisato Ayato.
Kamisato Ayato looked calm. He was not surprised by the spy's report. This was what he and Kujo Sara had discussed.
"Go gather some people, it's time for us to set off."
Kamisato Ayato said.
The final ninja nodded immediately, "Yes, sir."
quickly,
The samurai belonging to the shabuyo gathered together.
At this time, they didn't know why the master called them together.
But the warriors were full of fighting spirit.
They were samurai specially supported by the shrine, and when they heard Kamisato Ayato's call, they naturally felt that there was something they had to do.
They are happy to hear about war, as they are considered an elite force.
Walk up to the warriors.
Kamisato Ayato looked at the team with high morale, and then spoke:
"That person, who was in charge of the affairs of Heaven, secretly colluded with the foolish people, raised an army and started a rebellion, deceiving the general's wisdom. His crime is obvious and the evidence is as strong as a mountain.
Today, the Society upholds its duty and vows to fight against evil with righteousness, restore order and peace. "
The samurai that the society advocates are not just muscular men.
Every one of them is literate.
They all understood Kamisato Ayato's classical Chinese, and precisely because they understood it, they immediately became excited.
In recent years, due to the isolation order and the hunting order, the authority of the community has been actually squeezed.
As samurai who served as shabu-shu, they also had an uncomfortable time and were often laughed at by samurai who served as tenryo-shu.
Now, Kamisato Ayato is actually going to take them to the Tenryo Bugyo.
And it was done openly and honorably, which made these warriors very excited.
Looking at the excited look of the warriors below,
Kamisato Ayato knew that morale could be used, so he raised his arm and shouted: "Gentlemen, we share the same hatred and the same enemy. I hope you will join me in this righteous cause and lend me a hand to wipe out the evil and bring peace to the country!"
Immediately, the warriors below responded one after another, and the responses continued to ring out.
"I am willing to follow the society's example, purge the evil and bring peace to the country!"
"Very well, when the time comes to restore order, I will certainly highlight your achievements, reward you for your meritorious service, and make your glory known to the court and the people, so that we can all share the glory of the prosperous times."
Kamisato Ayato shouted again, then waved his hand: "Let's go to Inazuma Castle."
He personally led the team to Inazuma Castle.
the other side,
Wood leak tea room.
"Zaoyou, how's the investigation going?"
Kamisato Ayaka changed out of her usual fancy clothes and put on a skirt armor, sitting in the tea room with a serious look on her face.
Zaoyou was still a little kid. When she heard Kamisato Ayaka's question, she yawned and said:
"General Saro blamed the Kanjo Bugyo for stealing the evidence. Kujo Takayuki was very angry. He sent out all his elite troops to attack the Kanjo Bugyo. Now there are only four light foot troops guarding the Tenryo Bugyo, and the defense force is very weak."
As he spoke, Zaoyou took out a map.
"I have already mapped out their deployment, and I have also found some of the evacuation routes."
Kamisato Ayaka took the map, looked at it, and nodded slightly: "Thank you for your hard work, Zaoyou."
Zaoyou stretched and said, "Can I go to bed now?"
She didn't need thanks, she just wanted to sleep.
"Not yet. You have to help me make a trip and return this map to my brother."
Kamisato Ayaka said with a smile that made Zaoyou uncomfortable. "Eh... I'm really sleepy."
Reaching out to take back the map, Zaoyou let out a cry of grief, but still accepted the task.
After Zaoyou left,
Kamisato Ayaka took out another map, but it was not the defense map that Tenryo Buhsing used.
It is a larger complex of buildings.
It is the castle tower.
Gnashing her teeth, Kamisato Ayaka's eyes narrowed, and then she said, "Thomas."
"I'm here, Miss."
Thomas walked in from outside.
"Please go and give them this map."
Kamisato Ayaka did not mention the specific name.
Thomas reached out and took the map, then nodded, "Yes, Miss."
He knew who Kamisato Ayaka was talking about.
Moreover, Thomas is still a wanted criminal, so anyone who can come into contact with him will naturally not be a "good person".
After Thomas left,
Kamisato Ayaka's eyes were solemn, and her gaze seemed to be looking through the window at the castle towering over Inazuma Castle.
"General...sir."
……
Narukami Taisha Shrine,
"Now that the special training is complete, it's time to move on to the next step."
Yae Shinko looked at Ying in front of him and spoke.
I have to say that after this period of training, Ying is indeed much more energetic.
The spirit and energy that had been shattered by General Lei Dian’s sword returned a little.
"Do you want me to face General Raiden?"
Ying asked.
Yae Shinko nodded slightly and said, "In three days, the Fatui envoy will pay a visit to the general. You probably know that envoy. She is the Fatui executive officer."
When Ying heard the lady's name, her eyes widened: "The lady is here too?"
Yae Shinko: "Yes, this lady has bad intentions, so I plan to have you meet the general in three days as well."
"What do you want me to do?" Ying asked.
"You don't have to do anything, except maybe have a conflict with the Fatui. If you want to avenge your friend in Mondstadt, you can challenge the lady to a duel."
"Anyway, in the eternity that Ying is pursuing, you are an absolute variable. As long as you appear in front of her, she will definitely pull you into the Pure Land of One Heart."
"So as long as you reach the castle tower, our plan will be complete. Next, it depends on how long you can last under the hands of the shadow."
Yae Shinko did not hide anything from Ying and told him the general plan.
In fact, Ying is still a tool in this plan.
Her role is to send the will of the Inagi people that Yae Shinko has collected for a long time into the One-Minded Pure Land.
There is no way. Lei Dian’s heart is sealed with cement. Even the Eightfold Son of God cannot enter the Pure Land of One Mind.
Only Ying, this variable, will be pulled into the Pure Land by Lei Movie,
Lei's film will use battle to understand Ying's existence, and then incorporate it into eternity (build it into a statue).
“It still feels very dangerous.”
Paimon said, a little worried.
Yae Shinko smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, your friend is also in Inazuma. If there is any danger, he will help you."
As he spoke, Yae Shinko took out an amulet and said, "Keep it safe. It will help you at the critical moment."
The amulet is very ordinary, it seems to be just an ordinary piece of wood.
However, Ying knew that this was the trump card prepared by the Eightfold God's Son.
He reached out to take it and kept it close to his body.
Unlike the original plot, the current Ying fully understands the plan of Yae Shinto.
But she was still willing to take the risk and face General Raiden.
There's nothing I can do about it, since she is indeed a good person.
And she didn't want to see the suffering of the lower class people like Inazuma anymore.
Inazuma is the third country she traveled to.
Although there had been chaos in Mondstadt and Liyue before, it was the first time that the lower-class people like Inazuma were faced with so many difficulties.
So, even though Ying could stay out of it, she still chose to get involved in person.
"Take a good rest these two days. In three days, the people from Kaigi Island will open the road to the castle tower for you."
Yae Shinko said softly.
……
A certain house in Inazuma Castle
It is true that the most dangerous place is the safest place.
Even Kujo Sara could not have imagined that the rebels' base in Inazuma was actually in Inazuma Nai.
It is also close to Huajianzaka, so it is a nice house.
At least it's better than the Aratake faction.
Thomas, in disguise, arrived here with ease.
Thomas has always known that his family has connections with the rebels.
Kamisato Ayaka said many times that Thomas was not a servant but their family member, and this was not a polite remark.
Based on the secrets Thomas knew, he really was a member of Kamisato's family.
He reached out and knocked on the door a few times, one long and three short, repeating three times.
Soon, the door was opened.
Thomas walked in calmly, as if he was visiting a friend.
inside the door,
Wu Lang, who was also wearing armor, looked a little serious. When he saw that it was Thomas, he asked, "Brother Thomas, is there any news?"
"My eldest lady asked me to give this to you."
Thomas took out the map and handed it to Goro.
Wu Lang took it and opened it to check. As the commander, he could tell what the map was at a glance.
Defense map of the castle tower.
"Phew, I see."
Without needing Thomas to say anything else, Goro let out a sigh and nodded.
Before he came here, Coral Palace Xinhai had already arranged everything.
There is a connection between the Coral Palace Heart Sea and the Eightfold Son of God.
Changing Ming Shen's will was one of the few things they agreed on.
"Well, then I'll go back first."
Thomas didn't stay long, he just said goodbye and left.
……
The Embassy of Fools,
The lady still looked elegant as always. She looked at her subordinates with a slightly raised eyebrow, signaling them to speak.
"My Lord, the Three Privy Councils seem to be heading for a civil war."
The Fatui have many spies, some left behind by previous servants and some recently sent.
It was impossible for Tianling to hide such a big move from them.
Even the Faints knew about the shrine's plan to gather the samurai and rush to Inazuma Castle.
"Oh, okay, okay, isn't this what we want?"
Rosalyn laughed.
"Only when Inazuma gets more chaotic, we have more say, right?"
The Fatui lowered their heads, and when they heard Rosaline's words, they quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, your Excellency is right. Before, there were only the resistance army, but now the Three Magistrates have also started a civil war. Now that Inazuma is in chaos, we have a chance to make a move."
"It's just right. You guys sort out some documents and I'll go see the Thunder God in three days. This is a 'gift'."
Rosalyn said with a chuckle.
In fact, Yae Shinto's plan has never been hidden from anyone, but not everyone can know it.
Rosalyn was now in a misunderstanding.
She thought there was internal strife in the Three Kingdoms.
But in fact, it was Narukami Taisha that promoted the purification within the shogunate.
This misunderstanding was caused by the fact that Yaegami controlled certain people within the Narukami Taisha Shrine and made certain promises.
Therefore, no information from within Narukami Taisha was handed over to the Fatui.
When it comes to Inazuma, Yae Kamiko has far more control over her than anyone else.
Even though she seems to do nothing all day long, she can see the undercurrents within the Inazuma clan.
As the chief priest of Narukami, she is not exerting any strength now only because Narukami has locked himself up.
Yae Shinko didn't bother to care too much, as long as Inazuma kept running.
Now, it is time to reverse Ming Shen's will.
Therefore, the Eightfold Son of God began to exert his strength.
Just some small tricks, and with the help of the provocation of the new order,
All the forces that emerged in the treacherous social environment of Inazuma were completely defeated by the calculations of Yaezamiko.
Some companies follow this practice of knowing that they are being used.
There are rebels who are willing to be used.
There are also those who are not clear-headed from the beginning to the end.
There are also those who think they will be the winners.
The Fainted People were also deceived by the apparent conflict within Inazuma and believed it was a civil war among the Three Magistrates.
