The meeting at the Prime Minister's Office affected the hearts of the entire Ryukyus. In this half day, almost the entire Naha city function came to a standstill. People had no intention of working, doing business, or eating, drinking and having fun. Everyone frowned and looked at the mountain top. The numerous palaces of the Prime Minister's Mansion often make people involuntarily feel dazed.
The cargo ship captains on the dock who had just arrived from the Qing Dynasty wanted to scold the stevedores who were lazy and did not unload the cargo, but before the curse words could be uttered, the second mate who was familiar with the situation blocked their mouths.
"Stop talking. Didn't you notice that the entire pier is only allowed in and out? The number of military police on the street has tripled. Something big is about to happen!"
The stevedores still have their minds on work, and they also have their own sources of gossip. Although they don't know what the prime minister is going to do today, everyone knows that it must be related to the upcoming war.
The British businessman wearing a top hat smiled and walked towards the telegraph room at the pier. In his arms were more than a hundred dragon-patterned silver coins. He didn't know if he would be able to queue up to send a telegram today. In the past few days, everyone in Ryukyu has been busy. The commercial telegraph rooms were all overcrowded.
"If it really doesn't work, I can only bribe the telegraph operators. I don't know if these more than one hundred silver coins are enough..." But when the British businessman saw the door of the telegraph room, he discovered that something bad had happened. The telegraph room was actually surrounded by heavy soldiers. It's closed.
Just when he was at a loss, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder. When he turned around, he saw that it was an unknown Chinese. He was about to speak and ask, but the person opposite spoke first.
"Mr. Johnny? I'm so sorry. All the telegraph rooms in Ryukyu suddenly experienced a cable failure last night and are no longer usable... I have a place here where I can send telegrams. Why don't you come with me?"
The British businessman still kept a smile on his face, but his heart was filled with waves. Even the submarine cables were out of order, but you said you had a usable transmitter? Isn't this nonsense? "Oh, thank you, I'll wait a few days before posting again. Goodbye!"
The British guy just wanted to leave, but found that four policemen had surrounded him. "No, no, no, Mr. Johnny, you must come with us..."
The British man was just about to resist the curse, but suddenly a policeman covered his mouth with an electric shock and dragged him into an alley. The people around were dumbfounded, but the middle-aged man smiled and looked through his clothes, revealing the gold-plated badge inside.
"The CIA is on a mission to catch foreign spies, please don't scream..."
At this moment, the people suddenly realized. Instead of saying anything, the people on the street automatically formed a human wall with their bodies, blocking the entrance to the small alley.
Naha has been surrounded by an atmosphere of terror. The sailing warships on the sea have set sail with full sail. All merchant ships outside the port can enter but not leave. Now even fishing boats cannot sail into the sea.
The streets are full of mysterious CIA officers and police, and even Marine Corps soldiers are cooperating with them. The whole city is hunting for spies, and all the big fish that are usually targeted have begun to close their nets today.
All telegraph rooms have shut down their services on the pretext of the submarine cable accident. Xiao Letian has cut off all connections between Ryukyu and the outside world.
I don't know what time it started, but countless homing pigeons suddenly appeared over Ryukyu City. However, as soon as these poor little creatures took off, they were shot down one by one by countless snipers who had concealed themselves and turned into roasted squab.
The wolf-like military police pounced on the secret lairs of the spies, and the covert arrest operation soon caused a storm in the city.
"Damn it, Luo's Tofu Shop is so meticulous! Damn it, I've been taking care of his business in vain... kill him!"
"Look, Xinghua Building has been raided. I wonder why these ** people are so naughty. It turns out they are spies too... stripping off their clothes and parading them in public!"
"Look, there's someone trying to escape ahead! Brothers, gather around and block that bastard! Help the police arrest him!"
The whole city turned from silence to extremely violent, and everyone became excited. The fact that things were so big today meant that something big must have happened. It must have happened.
Time passed by minute by second, and the anxious people forgot to prepare lunch one by one. They wanted to know what was going to happen and whether there was going to be a war.
At this moment, a roaring sound suddenly came from the direction of the Prime Minister's Mansion along the street, "The door is open... The Prime Minister's Mansion is open... The officers and cavalry are coming out..."
An angry horse is like a dragon! The officers with shining generals rushed out from the gate and quickly rushed towards the military camp under the protection of guards and intelligence officers. At this moment, they could not speak to the servants waiting at the door.
"Look, it's Hyoutaro from Battou Camp... They went straight to the military camp and didn't even return home... Oh my God, there must be a war. The prime minister must have given the battle order!"
"Long live! Look at the Shuri Castle Fort...the red flag of war readiness has been raised. I know that flag. When we fought with the French, that flag never fell!"
Groups of cavalry rushed through the streets. Everywhere they went, they were cheered by thousands of people. Everyone's eyes filled with excitement: "Finally, I have waited for this day. Finally, I have waited for this day! Brothers, do your best and avenge our relatives..." …”
Strict discipline restrained all officers and soldiers from speaking or even making eye contact with the people, but they could feel the strong expectations of the entire city for them, and the atmosphere of the battle inspired them to be enthusiastic.
"The flag has been raised! His grandma's, it's finally time to raise the flag! The Prime Minister's Mansion has raised the flag of residual blood, the final battle has begun, and the Prime Minister is going to fight in person!"
At that moment, the alarm bells on the main island of Ryukyu rang, the horns sounded loudly, the inner door of the Temple of War opened, and the ten-ton copper bell was rung a total of 108 times.
All Buddhist temples, Taoist temples, and shrines began to chant sutras and pray for blessings! Countless good men and women flocked to it to sincerely pray that the Chinese would win.
The shops of Lotte Bank and Foreign Bank all over the city opened their doors, and the war bonds that had been prepared long ago began to be issued. Xiao Letian wanted to gather the strength of the entire Chinese people to contribute to this war.
The whole city has fallen into madness, and all the military camps have sounded the call for emergency assembly. The fanatical people took out all the silver coins at home and rushed into the bank to buy high-interest war bonds. No one thought that the Chinese would lose. There was only one thing in everyone's heart. Think that the Chinese will win.
"Buy, buy, buy! I admit that I will lose everything. Don't be like those heartless white-eyed wolves in Jiangnan. They know money in their eyes. They are all zombies!"
"The only one who can save the Chinese people is the Chinese themselves. If we win this great victory, we will soar to the sky, but if we lose, we will be doomed... If we become slaves of the foreign devils and the Manchus, we will have no use in asking for money!"
"Anyone with a heart will miss the good things of the Prime Minister. Without the Prime Minister and the New Army, where would we be today! Protecting the Prime Minister means protecting our own good days!"
