Chapter 324: Onmyoji Enters China
These counterfeit coins were being used to trade with the people. When Jiang Li learned the news, he immediately called Zhao Hong and Tian Kai, the head of the secret guards.
"Tell me what happened, where did these counterfeit bills come from, and have we taken any countermeasures?"
The two looked at each other, and Tian Kai took two steps forward and replied, "Commander, the secret guards and the security team have carefully explained to the people how to identify counterfeit new currency."
"So many people can already identify the authenticity, but there are still some people who haven't been notified, so they still can't tell the difference. But we will send people to continue to inform them!"
"In addition, I suggest setting up checkpoints at all major traffic routes to check on travelers and merchants, and strictly prohibit them from bringing counterfeit currency into Guangdong, Guangxi and Hunan!"
When Jiang Li heard this suggestion, although it was not very reliable, he still agreed to it. Although it was too late to mend the fold, it was imperative to do so.
As for the fact that this can make the matter bigger, it will allow more people to know the existence of counterfeit money and can carefully identify it when receiving or using it.
As for setting up checkpoints to prevent counterfeit currency from entering the country, that is basically impossible. If someone really wants to transport counterfeit currency, they can easily take a shortcut and bypass it.
It was also impossible for him to control all the roads along the borders of the three provinces. Not to mention whether his army was sufficient, if he did so, the logistics supply would become crazy because there would be too many checkpoints and there would be no time to transport the supplies.
After carefully selecting the locations for setting up checkpoints, they gave orders for them to go and carry out their mission. These soldiers had been trained for a long time, and it would be better for them to go out and carry out some tasks than to stay in the barracks all day.
After the matter was dealt with, someone came to report that there was someone outside who claimed to be the priest of the Qinghe River Temple and was asking to see him.
When Jiang Li heard this, he immediately guessed that maybe Mo Ying was looking for him, so he ordered someone to bring him up.
Seeing the person being brought up, Jiang Li asked calmly, "What did your river god ask you to do?"
When the temple keeper heard Jiang Li asking, he immediately bowed and answered, "To reply to the commander, my river god said that it has refined the dragon bones, and would like to invite the commander to come over to discuss the matter we talked about before!"
Jiang Li was very surprised when he heard this. Mo Ying was very fast. It took him only three months to refine the corpse of the Poyang Lake Dragon King.
Although he was a little surprised in his heart, he did not show it on his face. He just said, "I know," and sent the temple keeper away.
After the man left, Jiang Li thought about it carefully and found that there seemed to be nothing to do now, so he got up and prepared to go to Qinghe County.
But after he took a few steps, he felt his scalp tingling and got goose bumps all over his body.
Jiang Li knew that he had been promoted to Heavenly Master and had a vague sense of divine connection. The abnormality that he was experiencing now might be a warning of danger.
So he quickly dodged and hid behind a pillar, using all his senses to carefully search the surroundings, hoping to find the source of the danger.
But no matter how hard he searched, he found nothing. There was nothing unusual about the people and objects around him, and the tingling feeling on his scalp gradually faded away, as if it had never appeared at all.
At this time, the confused Taoist soldier beside him immediately stepped forward and asked, "Marshal, what's wrong with you? What's the situation?"
As he said this, he pulled out his gun and stood guard all around, shouting a warning loudly for the other soldiers to pay attention to their surroundings.
However, after searching for a whole circle, Jiang Li found nothing. After a while, the Taoist soldiers who were patrolling the surroundings outside came back to report.
"Commander, we searched outside and found nothing unusual!"
Jiang Li didn't say much after hearing this. He waved his hand and asked him to get off. He then continued to take the bus to Qinghe County.
However, how could a sudden impulse at this level come out of nowhere? Just when Jiang Li thought that he was worrying too much and didn't take it seriously.
However, they did not know that in the Kwantung Army training ground far away in Changchun, in a strange magic circle, thousands of people had collapsed, some with gray hair, some with faces as white as gold paper, and some with emaciated bodies.
And these people are none other than the Onmyoji invited by Muto Yoshinobu from the island country.
...
The specific situation has to start from three months ago.
After Mutō Yoshinobu sent the message to his homeland, the Onmyojis on Kyushu Island in Japan who had frequent dealings with the Mutō family wished they could grow wings and fly directly to China after hearing the news.
But they thought about it carefully again and realized that since they were about to officially step onto the stage of history, they naturally had to make a big splash.
So they contacted their fellow disciples and friends, and gathered two to three thousand Onmyojis who were quite good in Japan, and sailed to the northeast together.
However, it was this decision that planted the seeds of fatal disaster for Japan.
It turns out that the Dragon Slayer Taoist has been hiding in the mountains of Kyushu Island all these years, developing and progressing secretly.
However, because he was afraid of the Onmyoji in Japan, he was afraid that he would be attacked by the crowd before he could develop, so he acted with restraint.
When he learned that the Japanese Onmyoji were heading to China in a large group, he knew that his chance had come.
...
Speaking of these Onmyojis from the island country, after they crossed the ocean and arrived at Port Arthur, they were picked up by Muto Yoshinobu himself.
After returning to Changchun, he met Muto Yoshinobu and was naturally warmly received. Then he began to plot a plan to deal with China.
Shimazu Meiye, the leader of the Jiuju sect, was the first to speak, "Based on the information you gave me, Master Muto."
"The person who is most likely to bear the fate of the Golden Dragon that we calculated earlier is the warlord named Jiang Li. As for the other warlords in southern China, they are nothing to be afraid of!"
"As long as we get rid of him, it won't be difficult to conquer China!"
Muto Yoshinobu nodded in agreement, "Indeed, based on the intelligence our spies have sent back, the other Chinese warlords are simply a mob."
"As long as Jiang Li is killed, I can try to put pressure on the top leaders and launch a full-scale attack as soon as possible!"
"But the problem now is that Jiang has a large army under his command and is very efficient in screening out spies. Although our people have carried out several assassination attempts, they have not achieved any results."
"I wonder if you can use Yin-Yang magic to deal with this Jiang guy?"
Shimazu Meiye thought about it after hearing this, and seemed to have made up his mind. He then said in a very firm tone: "Don't worry, Master Muto. This time, our Jiujiu Sect has not only sent a large number of experts!"
"We have contacted the Abe family and the Kamo family, issued a bounty, and found more than a thousand wild cultivators. We will definitely be able to eliminate this warlord!"
Muto Yoshinobu was overjoyed when he heard this, "Since Master Shimazu has said so, this general naturally believes it!"
