Chapter 131 - Pre-trial

Xiao Letian asked Xiang Shaolong to put him down. Although Dragon Lord was a little worried, he knew that at this moment, Xiao Letian had to act like a strong warrior in front of everyone. Looking at Xiao Letian who was swaying on the spot, the surrounding soldiers subconsciously wanted to rush over and support him.

"Everyone, don't touch me …" Let me stand on my own! " Xiao Letian raised his hand to stop the soldiers who were surrounding him, relying on his willpower to resist the dizziness in his head.

Do not blame Xiao Letian for being weak. In this world, there are no people who entered the battlefield without resting after donating their blood. In his previous life, Xiao Letian always laid on the sofa after donating his blood, eating biscuits and snacks, and also had the ability to tease the young and beautiful nurse.

In the face of such a chaotic battlefield, what was needed was the rapid operation of the brain, and in the face of such negotiations, it required the concentration of 120 thousand spiritual energy. But right now, Xiao Letian's mind was in a state of confusion, akin to a hypoglycemia.

"Damn, if only I had a chocolate bar. What I need now is sugar, a large amount of sugar …" 's mutterings were actually heard by the surrounding people.

"Master, what power do you need? Say it clearly... You want sugar? "Our specialty is sugar, we have as many as we want …" As they spoke, a group of soldiers rushed into the dilapidated houses on both sides, rummaging through boxes to find some candy for the adults.

Xiao Letian smiled bitterly as he watched his subordinate plunder the white sugar. He sighed in his heart, 'A general who goes to the battlefield to eat the first candy, I reckon that he's already considered to be the only one, right?'

For the past few hundred years, the sugar industry had been a lifeline industry of the Ryukyu Kingdom's economy. It could be found in almost every household in the city, and in a short while, the soldiers managed to find half a jar of the gray sugar and passed it to Xiao Letian.

After two mouthfuls of granulated sugar entered his stomach, his blood sugar level quickly increased. After his brain received sufficient nutrients, the drowsiness was swept away. Xiao Letian passed the sugar bowl to the soldier and said, "Hold on, I'll probably have another two sips later." He strode toward the Japanese concentration camp.

"Huashan Liyuan, Zhu Zhongjingshang... And there's also that brainless Kiyoshi Yamamoto! Today, I, Xiao Letian, am standing in front of you all. And you... I must get an answer today! I need an answer for tonight's riot! "

As the bloodied Xiao character recognition flag slowly approached the Japanese camp, the entire area started to be abnormally restless. All the Japanese knew that this was the last moment, and life and death depended on these adults for a moment.

When Huashan Liyuan saw Sakamoto Ryoma's eyes that wanted to kill, he knew that they had lost completely. From the beginning to the end, they had never done anything right. This Shimadzu Family Elder brought Kiyoshi Yamamoto to kneel in front of Xiao Letian and the others, then kowtowed to him at the entrance of the camp.

"Kiyoshi Yamamoto wrongly estimated the situation. He was instigated by a villain to have such an unwise action, so I am deeply apologetic towards today's matter … I know that my apologies cannot make up for the deaths of these people. I am willing to use my life to apologize to you! " With that, the birch elder stood up and bowed to Yepingtai.

"I know that your swordsmanship is top-notch. Can you help me intercede …" Yepingtai was startled when he heard about it, and subconsciously turned to look at Xiao Letian. Without waiting for Xiao Letian to speak, Kiyoshi Yamamoto jumped up and said, "I am the emissary for the whole thing, and I should be the one to be castrated. This has nothing to do with you. But I just want to ask the Sir of Qing Nation, in front of all the Japanese s, how exactly do you want to punish us? "

Kiyoshi Yamamoto pointed to the ten thousand Japanese people behind him and said emotionally, "There are one hundred thousand people in Naha Harbor, and they are all trapped in your concentration camp now. We are not born to be slaves, we will not let you humiliate us …"

"F * ck!" Dragon Lord slapped him hard on his face. His ability to point fingers at a deer and make a rake for a horse is truly f * cking innate. Even now, he still dares to stand on my side and jabber on … "

Xiang Shaolong rushed forward and slapped right and left of his ear with his loud and clear voice. Kiyoshi Yamamoto's face instantly turned into a pig head, blood flowing out of the corner of his mouth and nose. Xiao Letian's sudden display of power caused all the Japanese s to be extremely terrified, they were afraid that the Qing Guo soldiers would start slaughtering the city in the next second.

At this time, Sakamoto Ryoma, who had been silent all this time, spoke up, "Mr. Xiao, can I have a few words?" Xiao Letian nodded his head, and the two of them carried their palanquins and walked to the front, where Mr. Ryoma looked down at the group of Japanese kneeling down.

"You've done wrong in today's conflict …" Sakamoto Ryoma's words caused a wave of grief amongst the crowd: "I was indeed assassinated, the fire spear pierced my chest, I almost went to see the Buddha. But, the one who assassinated me wasn't Xiao Letian, but the Japanese! "

"AHH!" "How could it be …" Kiyoshi Yamamoto used his sleeve to wipe the blood off his face. "How is this possible? "Could it be that Lord Sakamoto was deceived …"

"Eight!" "Shut up …" Sakamoto Ryoma suddenly roared, followed by a wave of dizziness, "Why would Master Xiao lie to me? And why would the Qing people want to kill me? Do you really have no brains? Bring E Balang up here... "

Just then, a few soldiers brought along E Balang who was tied up all over, and now, E Balang was no longer in his human form.

"While E Balang was running for his life, he met Hidden Fog Kid. He provided that damnable woman with guns and ammunition, and while I was being careless, Hidden Fog Kid used a disguise technique to get close to me. So the assassination happened …"

"Impossible, the Hidden Fog Kid is a ninja of the Shimadzu Family, and you are the Mr. Ryoma respected by all the people of the Master of the Island. You are the negotiating ambassador, why would he want to assassinate you?" This time, not only Kiyoshi Yamamoto, but even Huashan Liyuan and all the other Japanese present were at a loss.

Xiao Letian looked at Yepingtai, then slightly bowed and walked in front of him. "Ladies and gentlemen, as well as fellow villagers of the Japan, I can give you the answer to this question."

"Hidden Fog Kid is not a ninja of Shimadzu Family at all. This woman had been plotted against by Tokugawa since last year. She is now the leader of New Selection Group's intelligence team. She has already sent countless reports to the capital, but Shimadzu Family has always been kept in the dark!"

"Nani!" This piece of news was too explosive. It had to be known that right now, the Tokugawa was at the brink of a civil war with the Emperor, as one was unwilling to see the Mu Clan toppled while the other was desperately trying to push the throne of the Sky Emperor.

"As a wild warrior, I was a swordsman when I traveled in the capital. I was once bewitched by the New Selection Group and I joined it for three days. "It was these three days that I learned about the nature of this group of people. They are all lunatics who only know how to kill people, and their daily job is to search for new people and make plans to assassinate them. I think there are those who have been to the capital who don't know their names …"

"And the most abnormal thing is that this organization doesn't allow others to leave. Even if I said that I would investigate for three days before making a decision, it still isn't possible. The moment I left, I encountered an endless amount of assassination attempts. I fled towards the south, all the way until the Ryukyu did not escape their pursuit … "

"The Ninja led by the Hidden Fog Kid had sneak attacked me before. If not for the brave Bing Tai coming to my rescue, I might have died a long time ago …" After saying that, Xiao Letian opened his mouth.

"Do you understand now? You have already become tools of the Tokugawa, and all the actions of the New Selection Group are aimed at killing your Shimadzu Family, causing this barrel of gunpowder to explode even more violently, and ultimately destroying the very foundation of your Shimadzu Family. All of you idiots have become tools in the hands of your enemies without knowing it, yet you still dare to boast shamelessly in front of me … "

"Slaughter the city? Do you think I'm a beast like you? War should never involve innocent people, and only a trash maniac like you would kill a civilian … How the fuck do you even dare to ask me how I'm going to deal with you Japanese people? When you, bastard, killed our Chinese citizens, what did you think of? Did you ever think that you would have such a day? "

Xiao Letian's sharp gaze that was like a knife swept across all the Japanese civilians who were kneeling on the ground. Out of the tens of thousands of people, no one dared to meet his gaze. In that moment, all of the blood in Xiao Letian's body started to boil, he seemed to see the ghosts of the countless Chinese people flying about.

"I'm not a homicidal maniac, but I'm not a good person either! From today onwards, I will give you Japanese ten days. Those who have killed the Chinese people and the Glazed sphere aboriginals will turn themselves in for death. Let me tell you all, don't let me have any thoughts of luck. If I dig you out ten days later, your father will annihilate your entire family … "

Xiao Letian's mind was in a mess, he grabbed the sugar bowl and took another two gulps, then fiercely panted a few times before he said in a stern voice, "From today onwards, prepare an account for me, Qi Min. Ten clan Japanese s will be in a group, ten groups will be in a single city, and ten groups will be in a single city.

"I will let you know what sit-down method is. If any of you in the first group dares to deceive me, I will kill all ten of you. If three groups in one group appeared cheating, the captain would die. "The same thing happened. There were cheating in three parts of the same district. The district governor sat down and died …"

"I will give you ten days, hand over all the thugs who have killed Chinese and aboriginals!" "This is your only way out. Remember, this is your only way out …"

The murderous words sent chills down the back of everyone's neck. The smart ones could see with a glance that there would not be a single fish that escaped the net, and there would even be some minor crimes or severe punishments, so even if there was a large number of grievances, it would not be impossible.

However, this method of sitting down was indeed able to protect the interests of the Japanese that did not participate in the massacre. A hundred thousand Japanese living in Nana was not disheartened by this, most people just took advantage of the chaos to pick up some property, and some people even escaped into the mountain forest to hide.

The number of people who actually killed them was probably only around a thousand. The majority of the remaining people were waving their flags and shouting.

After saying that, Xiao Letian calmed his emotions, looked at Huashan Liyuan and said calmly: "Now we are going to talk about the remaining two thousand soldiers of your Shimadzu Family. I still have the same line, do whatever you have to do, punish them severely, and as for a soldier who obeys orders completely? "I really have no idea how to deal with it …"

Xiao Letian was currently hesitating, he could not kill the 2000 feet in Shimadzu Family, the soldiers were just following orders, the cause and effect of the incident were not on them, although he had killed the Chinese soldiers and civilians in the war, the main sin was on the officers.

Dealing with these soldiers was more difficult than dealing with the thugs who killed them. After all, the mob was made up of loose citizens. When they started to kill, their hearts were filled with evil thoughts. These thugs wanted to kill someone, but they had to do so themselves. If he was the only one with the evil and evil reasons, there was no doubt that he would be able to kill them.

However, the army was a complicated organization that had to obey orders strictly. No matter what the soldiers thought, their actions were not something they could decide.

To put it simply, the hands of a thug were determined by the hearts of the thug, while the hands of a soldier who killed were determined by the officers. This was the reason why after successive wars, only officers were tried and the soldiers were spared.

All the officers present could hear the hesitation in Xiao Letian's words and saw the hope for the soldiers to survive. Many of the middle class officers rushed out from the crowd and knelt in front of Xiao Letian.

"We are the instigators of this incident, we must sincerely apologize!"
