Spy Wars: I signed in at the Military Police at the beginning

Because Katyusha's large caliber and dense impact points can fire a large number of rockets in a short period of time, many people think that a salvo from a Katyusha artillery company is equivalent to that of five heavy artillery regiments.

Before the First Marine Advance Team's Katyusha could be reloaded and rain down new fire, the surviving soldiers behind the Royalist Army's position retreated towards Heian-kyo.

The loyalist army, which was always known for saving resources in the design and manufacturing of weapons, had never seen such a free-for-all. The highest commander had been killed in the first round of attacks, and they didn't want to fight against a monster like the Tiger Guards!

"Sir, do you want to send another round from the heavy artillery brigade?" The lieutenant colonel of the advance team, who saw Katyusha being deployed on such a large scale for the first time, asked his superior excitedly.

"You think too highly of the enemy! If you haven't seen enough, wait until we fight Heian-kyō. Now take your men to clean up the battlefield immediately!" The colonel sneered, gave his orders to his men, and then called over his own guard chief.

"Report to the commander! The battle report has been sent to the rear..."

"That's not what I'm talking about. Where are those officers from Yamaguchi Prefecture who surrendered before the war being held now?" The colonel waved his hand to interrupt his subordinate's report and asked.

"Sir, those people are still staying in the thatched hut on the left side of the position." The guard leader reported.

"I have already reported the matter to the higher-ups. Those people may be relatives of the commander's old subordinates. Now you are to personally lead people to send them back to the headquarters in the rear." The colonel ordered.

"Hi!" The guard leader took the order and left.

Twenty minutes later, the head of the guards brought Lieutenant Colonel Mori from the logistics department of the Qinwang Army to the Tiger Guards headquarters. Zhou Ke personally met with these opponents who had surrendered voluntarily.

"General, I am Maori Kudō, Maori Hiromoto's cousin!"

As soon as he saw Zhou Ke, Lieutenant Colonel Maori and his men saluted, then stepped forward and shook hands with Zhou Ke vigorously. His slightly red eyes were as if he had met a relative he hadn't seen for many years.

"......Mr. Maori, I'm glad that you made the right choice. I seem to have heard Hongyuan mention you before." Zhou Ke smiled and invited the talented actor opposite him to come in and reminisce.

"Your Excellency General, my family has a factory. The grenade launcher that was more than 40 millimeters larger than the normal one was produced in my factory!" When Lieutenant Colonel Mori heard Zhou Ke say this, the tears in his eyes disappeared and he reminded with a smile.

"I remember what you said! I asked someone to rescue you before, right?" Zhou Ke said with sudden enlightenment.

"No, no, General, the one who was arrested was my brother, not me! I am usually in charge of production, and my brother is in charge of transportation! Thank you for what you did before!" Lieutenant Colonel Mori explained.

"Mr. Maori, you're too polite. We are all family! But having said that, you came to me today not just to reminisce about the past, right?" Zhou Ke asked after motioning his men to go out.

"It's nothing big. It's just about your march to Tokyo to support the king. Our master arranged for me to come and inform you." Lieutenant Colonel Mori said as he groped in his chest pocket.

"What did the old man say?" Zhou Ke didn't know what Lieutenant Colonel Maori was going to take, but it was obvious that the other party couldn't bring in weapons.

"It's like this. Our Mori family has been dissatisfied with the current ruler for a long time because of the power division in the past two years. This time, your Shimazu family did something that we couldn't do." Lieutenant Colonel Mori took out a map while speaking.

"This is?"

"This is the current defense map of the areas you must pass through to enter Beijing. We will use our family's still useful connections to cooperate with your troops to take over all these places to avoid unnecessary combat losses!"

"Of course, we can only reach as far as Mount Fuji. The road behind Mount Fuji will depend on your Tiger Guards."

"But I believe that no one will stop you like that stupid colonel today!" Lieutenant Colonel Mori said as he opened the map.

"What are the conditions of your Maori family?" Even though he had been cooperating with the other party for a long time, Zhou Ke didn't believe that the other party would give such a big gift for no reason.

"These are what we should do. Moreover, even if we don't provide assistance, I believe it will be easy for your troops to defeat them with their strength."

Lieutenant Colonel Mori's words were not a compliment. In addition to the steel monsters he saw on the way to the headquarters, he was also deeply impressed by the salvo of Katyushas just now. He did not think that there was any army in the country that could stop the steel torrent of the Tiger Guards.

"Okay, then let's wait until our Tiger Guards take over the Imperial Palace before we discuss other things! It's better to avoid fighting if possible. After all, we just need a new order, not chaos!"

Zhou Ke saw that Lieutenant Colonel Maori was not willing to talk about the benefits after providing the map, so he did not mention it any more. After a brief discussion, Lieutenant Colonel Maori followed Zhou Ke's men to connect with the Marine Advance Team.

About an hour later, Heian-kyō and Osaka surrendered without a fight. No resistance was seen in the places where the Tiger Guards passed, except for a few loyal people who knew the truth of the matter.

...........

The next day, in the Kikuma Room of the Imperial Palace, the Emperor, with dark eyes and a somewhat depressed spirit, gathered together again with his trusted subordinates.

It was unknown how many times he had convened a meeting with his ministers, but until now, apart from knowing that the Tiger Guards were getting closer and closer, no good solution had been discussed.

The current Emperor Showa does not know what the significance of the meeting is. He only knows that he can temporarily gather his subordinates together before completely losing power.

"My dear, how is the situation of my relative-in-law?" Emperor Showa broke the somewhat depressing atmosphere and asked Yukichi Kido.

This morning, after learning that the Tiger Guards had arrived at the vicinity of Mount Fuji overnight, Emperor Showa immediately sent Matsudaira Tsuneo as an envoy to try to negotiate with the Tiger Guards.

Before leaving, Matsudaira Tsuneo patted his chest and promised him that even if he could not persuade the Tiger Guards to return, he would let the Tiger Guards send envoys to the Imperial Palace for negotiations. But who would have thought that Matsudaira Tsuneo was fine when he left, but when he came back, he was lying down!

"Your Majesty, after the examination by the imperial physician, although Matsudaira-kun did not suffer any fatal injuries, he will not be able to get out of bed without lying down for ten days or half a month!" Kido Yukikazu said helplessly.

"We can't contact the Shimazu family, and the Tiger Guards are pressing forward! My dear ministers, is it really impossible to ease the situation at this point?"

Emperor Showa still can't understand why it was just a small act of willfulness on his part in exercising power and simply redistributing power among high-level officials, but it has led to the point where the country is about to change hands.
