Chapter 1113: A Lover's Dispute

The revolution had begun, seemingly overnight, thousands of deserters had gathered together in the southern portion of Japan, and had begun attacking the Samurai clans who ruled over the region. Even without dedicated large bore artillery, the attackers made excellent use of their mortars, and rocket-propelled grenades to bring down the walls of the ancient castles. 

The Fall of the Samurai had come, and without even expecting it, Shiba found that many of his highest ranking officers and their families had come under siege. At first, he thought that this was perhaps a group of unconnected attacks conducted by various groups of troublesome deserters.

However, it became increasingly clear by the banners that these men flew, and the weapons that they wielded, that this was an organized rebellion.  In retaliation, Shiba ordered what remained of Japanese Armored and Air power to invade the South, and route these rebels before they caused some serious harm.
