The silent forest instantly burst into gunfire, and the ambush circle was less than thirty steps away from the middle of the road. A dozen AKs instantly knocked Chiyo Honta into a sieve, and the scene suddenly became a mess.

"Head of the family!" Miyamoto only had time to exclaim, and he was shot several times before he could even pull out the sword.

Honta Chiyo's hundreds of personal guards were well-trained, and half of them quickly surrounded Honta Chiyo and Miyamoto Island Tree.

The bullets were quickly finished, and everyone looked at the Japanese warriors rushing towards them with samurai swords.

sir-

Under Liu Hongjian's order, more than a dozen people pulled the grenades one after another, and then threw the grenades into the group of warriors in the form of parabola, holding swords in both hands and screaming.

Boom-boom-boom-

Grenades are tantamount to massacres for cold weapons. After a round of grenades, less than half of the fifty or sixty Japanese warriors could stand. Liu Hongjian immediately ordered Kuo Duan and others to throw the second wave without any hesitation.

The grenade was naturally stored in the ring space by Liu Hongjian in advance. This thing is not like AKM wrapped in a sackcloth and can be carried on the back, and it is also important to not be damp.

Boom - Boom Boom -

This is Japan, the real place outside the law, and they are the madmen outside the law.

"Supply our merchant ship, otherwise you will never be at peace with us!" Naoki Hirakawa shouted at half of the surviving roadside, and the Japanese warrior responsible for protecting Chiyo Honda's safety.

"Do it, let's withdraw!" Liu Hongjian patted the dazed Qizaemon's shoulder and said while changing the magazine.

It’s not that Shizaemon has little knowledge, but the battle just now is beyond his imagination.

The terrifying musket that could be fired continuously, and the iron lump that exploded when smoke came out. In almost the blink of an eye, Honda Tadao's grandson, the head of the Honda family, and Honda Chiyo, one of the three major forces in Edo, died like this.

And there were fifty or sixty fierce Japanese warriors who were eliminated together. He had seen the strength of the guards around Chiyo Honta, and at least the warriors he raised could not beat one of them.

But so what? In Liu Hongjian's hand, it was just a bullet and a grenade.

As long as your body is still fleshy, as long as you have not attained enlightenment and become an immortal, no matter how powerful you are, a bullet can send you to the great god Amaterasu.

When more than a dozen people retreated, there was a team of warriors trying to chase after him, but they were shot dead by Kuoduan and others halfway. The group rushed to the depths of the forest, and turned over and ran to the west.

"It's the Dutch!" Miyamoto heard Naoki Hirakawa's roar, and not only heard it, but also understood it. As the samurai that Chiyo trusted the most, he knew the festival between the head of the family and the Dutch merchants.

But he didn't expect that the Dutch would be so bold and reckless!

"Head of the Family! Vomit--" Miyamoto looked at the head of the family who had been beaten to the point of being beaten, and his heart was sad and angry, and blood was constantly emitting from his mouth. He was shot several times and his body had reached its limit.

"Kun Nakao, I can't hold on anymore. The Dutch merchants attacked us. Wan Wang reported this truthfully... to the general!" After Miyamoto said that, he fell beside Chiyo Honta.

...

Honta Chiyo was assassinated, which is absolutely a big deal for the major forces in Edo, and is enough to describe it as shock.

Tokugawa Iemitsu personally brought people to the many families for inspection. As a witness, Nakaojiro truthfully described the scene to Tokugawa Iemitsu, and Tokugawa Iemitsu's face instantly sank.

But Tokugawa Iemitsu is not an ordinary person. He does not think that this is done by the Dutch. It is not that he does not believe in Nakaojiro. Years of experience tells him that what he sees may not be true.

A few days ago, he met with a viscount from the Dutch and had a great time talking. The Dutch wanted to come to Japan to do business, and some domestic necessities after Japan locked the country happened to need these merchants.

Honta Chiyo has done so many stupid things over the years. Tokugawa Ie-Ki is very clear about it, but because of the affection of his ancestors and this guy has always been loyal, he has always turned a blind eye.

The blackmailing of the Dutchman's ship was absolutely capable of doing this, but according to his understanding, the cunning Dutchman would definitely not dare to assassinate his general because of this.

The Dutch can definitely tell which one is more important. Even if they really want to solve this matter, they should come to the shogunate to negotiate rather than assassination directly.

So there must be someone else who assassinated Chiyo Honta!

"Come here! Go and notify Viscount Korridge quickly and say that I have something important to talk about!" Tokugawa's family said with a calm face.

"General, you must avenge our head!" When Nakaojiro heard that Tokugawa Iemitsu had just made an appointment with the Dutch to discuss, he immediately fell to the ground.

With Jiro Nakao taking the lead, other retainers of the many families naturally started to cry.

"I see Nakada Hitomi, go and take people to seize all the Dutch people in the city." Tokugawa Iemitsu frowned and sighed.

He did not want to add the crime to the Dutch, but he had to consider the emotions of the Motokawa retainers, which made him hate the real mastermind even more.

...

Tokugawa Iegami sent people to arrest the Dutch while secretly investigating the suspicious murderer. Even the bad debts of Honda Chiyo over the years were overturned, but he still had no clue.

There is no way. Honta Chiyo has offended too many people, and words like "hemma" are almost tailor-made for them. Anyone has a reason to kill Honta Chiyo.

But Edo is his nest, and nothing can cause trouble here. Tokugawa Iemitsu believes that there will always be a day when the truth will be revealed.

But he didn't want to eat this mute. Even though he knew that this was not done by the Dutch, all the assassins were wearing Dutch clothes and even shouting Dutch, no one could question this.

He wanted to use this to threaten Viscount Korridge to see if he could win more profit margins for the shogunate in trade.

But the matter was not as simple as Tokugawa Iemitsu thought. Two days later, something happened in the city controlled by the shogunate that shocked everyone.

As soon as the Dutch Navy Major Viscount Kollridge came to the shore, he was caught off guard by a group of Japanese in kimonos. The weapons in the hands of these Japanese were not katanas, but black-sparkled muskets.

Korridge was as unlucky as Chiyo Honta. He was instantly beaten into a sieve and was beaten half of his head.

Moreover, the group of samurai shouted the slogan of avenging Honta Chiyo when they retreated...

This made a big splash. The Dutch didn't know how Chiyo Honta died, but their merchant ship was indeed detained by the Japanese on false charges, and the squadron leader Korridge was indeed shot and killed by the Japanese.

What's wrong? The Dutch moves very quickly. Before Tokugawa Iemitsu even had time to react, the Dutch warships between Japan and the Ming Sea were urgently mobilized to the sea outside important ports such as Nagasaki and Edo.

The water in Japan is even more muddy.

"Brother Ermu, how is this scoundrel?"
