America 1881: Legend of the West

Thurston had already figured it out when he fired the gun outside the palace.

If the Queen really dies, the Kingdom of Hawaii will fall into chaos at best, or fall apart directly at worst.

None of her children could bear this burden.

And isn't this what he wants to achieve through the coup?

Now, there is a Japanese fool who is willing to bear this reputation, why wouldn't I do it?

As for how to let the queen die, he had already thought about it.

Just attack the Japanese camp regardless.

It would be best if Kameda Masao accidentally killed the queen in anger. If not, wouldn't it be nice to attack and find an opportunity to kill the queen again, and then put the blame on Kameda Masao.

Anyway, the scene will be very chaotic, and God knows who killed the queen!

Thinking of this, Thurston quickened his pace.

As for Kameda Masao's side.

He and his soldiers returned home with great success.

In addition to the Queen and her two daughters, there are also the treasures and valuables looted from the palace.

"Please don't worry, Her Majesty the Queen. The situation this time is quite confusing. Please forgive me. We will compensate for the property lost in the palace."

Kameda Masao stuck his head into the carriage and said words in a stiff tone that even he himself might not believe.

The queen remained silent.

She felt infinitely humiliated.

After sending the queen and the hostages into a stronghold made of wood, Kameda Masao began to set up defenses.

This simple fortress is about one kilometer away from the guild hall. It is also built on the mountain. The wooden wall is about seven or eight meters high. It stores about a month's worth of food and water. It is quite a legacy of the Warring States Period.

There are several sentry towers at each of the four corners and on the top of the village gate, and pedestrians can also pass on the wooden wall of the village.

Japanese soldiers armed with brand-new spears stood in formation above, waiting for the arrival of the King of Qin.

After Kameda Masao made an inspection tour, he handed over the defense work to Yamamoto Haruma and ran into a wooden house in the center of the stockade.

The high priest was not here, so he sat on the tatami and played chess with himself.

Hand talk is one of Masao Kameda’s biggest hobbies besides killing people.

Although technology really stinks, he always believed that he could find a moment of peace between black and white.

However, just after he finished his set, someone suddenly broke in from outside the door.

"The crusade is here?" Kameda Masao glanced at the man, still waving the flag in his hand.

"Reporting to the president, no!" the visitor replied, half-kneeling on the ground.

Kameda Masao looked unhappy:

"If it wasn't about this, wouldn't I tell you not to disturb me while I'm studying the chess game?"

"But according to the information from the observation post, gunshots were heard from the direction of the palace. It was very intense. Someone was fighting there!" the intelligence officer reported.

"In the direction of the palace? A fight started?" Kameda Masao was confused.

He thought for a moment, and then looked like he suddenly understood.

Chen Jianqiu must have brought the Chinese here to get a share of the pie, but he happened to run into the police returning to defense or the Qinwang troops like the Honolulu Lancers. So the two sides exchanged fire.

Thinking of this, Kameda Masao couldn't help but smile while stroking his hands.

Well played! It’s best if both sides suffer losses!

When Chen Jianqiu's vitality was severely weakened, he would also deal with these Chinese people, so as to avenge his previous shame!

Kameda Masao stood up, put his kimono jacket on his shoulders, adjusted his belt, walked out of the wooden house, and walked towards the room where the Queen was sitting.

He planned to persuade the Hawaiian indigenous leader again, hoping that she would change her mind as soon as possible.

At this time, the guard captain had already arrived below the stockade with some soldiers from the Honolulu Lancers.

He roared in English and Aboriginal at the Japanese soldiers on the gatehouse;

"You short bastards from the outer islands! You actually kidnapped our queen! Let her go quickly, or I will make you pay the price."

Yamamoto Haruma on the gatehouse couldn't understand what he was saying, and he couldn't hear clearly. He directly ordered his men to shoot at the opposite side.

This dear friend has always been very experienced in playing downwind games.

Equipped with the new guns provided by Chen Jianqiu and having the advantage of being at a commanding height, the Japanese quickly stunned the guard captain and his indigenous soldiers with old-fashioned rifles.

Bullets were fired densely from top to bottom from the direction of the guard tower and gate tower, constantly claiming the lives of the native Hawaiian warriors.

At this time, in the Queen of Hawaii's room, Kameda Masao was once again trying to force the Queen to abdicate.

The Queen remained silent and completely ignored Kameda Masao standing in the room.

The Japanese Ronin leader is ready to repeat his old tricks.

This time, he planned to directly threaten the queen with an abdication edict.

Her two daughters were brought to her again.

"I really don't want to hurt your daughters. After all, they are still young and have a long way to go in the future." Kameda Masao looked at the queen cruelly and at the same time pulled out his samurai sword.

The Queen's expression was one of pain.

She was struggling repeatedly in her heart.

She really didn't want to see her two daughters die right in front of her eyes!

At this moment, the Japanese soldier who delivered the order entered the room again.

He walked up to Kameda Masao's ear and whispered something to him in a low voice.

A rare smile appeared on the dry and lifeless face of the Ronin leader.

"Your Majesty, your loyal soldiers have come to save you. Are you interested in checking them out?" There was cruelty on his face.

The queen wanted to refuse, but after looking at Kameda Masao's expression, she thought about it and decided to come forward.

She didn't want more people to get hurt.

The queen followed Kameda Masao and climbed onto the wooden gate tower.

But when she saw everything in front of her, she was shocked.

Under the fire suppression of Japanese soldiers, the guard captain and the soldiers of the Honolulu Lancers were struggling to hold on.

Around them lay the bodies of many of their compatriots.

But the guard captain showed no intention of retreating.

He had taken off his shirt, revealing his dark muscles. He was holding an old-fashioned rifle and fired back at the Japanese standing on the top of the wall.

When he raised his head again, he saw the queen standing next to Kameda Masao.

"Look! It's Her Majesty the Queen!" The guard captain wiped the sweat and blood on his face and shouted excitedly.

The soldiers of the Lancers also noticed the Queen.

A burst of excited cheers broke out among the soldiers, and their morale was boosted for a moment!

"Come on! Rescue the queen!" The guard captain's face flushed with excitement. He raised his arms and rushed out of the bunker towards the gate of the village.

This move inspired the soldiers behind.
