I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Chapter 537: The shogunate is approaching! 【Five Thousand Two Hundred Words】

At this moment--

The 1st army camp, the coach's camp——

In the huge coach camp, at this time there were only three figures.

The old one, holding a military outfit, wearing a mighty armor, and wearing a gorgeous haori, sits on a horse.

Of the young two, one was sitting next to the old guy, who was also wearing armor and knitting, and was a young teenager.

The other was kneeling in the middle of the camp. He only wore ordinary soldier armor.

"...Thanks for your report." The old man waved his hand to the young soldier in soldier armor who was kneeling in front of them, "Go and rest first."

"Yes!" The young soldier who knelt on one knee in the middle of the camp responded loudly, saluting the old and young sitting in front of him, and then quickly stepped out of the camp.

After the young man left the camp, the old man made a fan with military equipment. After gently fanning himself a few times, he whispered:

"Kuroda-kun, what do you think?"

This old man was not a guy with mental problems, so he was naturally asking the young general sitting next to him.

"Master Gui, since the road ahead is unimpeded, then I think I can safely move forward, speed up a little bit, and head straight for the Red Moon Fortress." The young teenager sitting next to the old man said slowly.

This young teenager is Kuroda, one of the "Seven Guns in Xianzhou".

He has not healed from the injuries on the palms of both hands, and his palms are still wrapped in thick linen.

At this time, the old man sitting next to Kuroda was the new general of their First Army-Gui Yizheng.

They are a 10,000 army composed of the shogunate army and the feudal army of the Tohoku domains, and the generals are naturally lined with factions.

Among them, the most powerful faction is naturally the "Shogunate", "Aizu faction" and "Sendai faction" which are the top three in the number of troops sent.

Originally, the three most powerful factions were commanding the first army, just to achieve subtle checks and balances.

However-after the death of the leader of the "Sendai faction" Shengtianmu, this created a very embarrassing situation-I don't know who should command the First Army.

The remaining generals of the "Sendai faction"-Akizuki and Kuroda, do not have enough abilities and qualifications.

The leader of the "Aizu Clan"-Kamio was already in charge of the Third Army, and it would not be appropriate for the "Aizu Faction" to command the First Army.

However, people from other factions were too weak to let their people command the First Army.

So not long after the First Army and the Second Army converged, after multiple considerations, Inamori finally decided to let someone from the "shogunate" take over the First Army in order to avoid disputes.

The "shogunate" occupies an undoubtedly dominant position in the entire army, so it is naturally easier for the "shogunate" to command the first army than to send people from other factions to command the first army.

And this Gui Yizheng is the "shogunate" general.

The 54-year-old veteran was born in the Kimoto family with a salary of 7000 shi. Although he is old, he is trusted by Inamori.

After Kuroda's observation during this period, the new general's ability is still outstanding.

After airborne to their First Army, they took over all command and command with a vigorous and vigorous style.

According to Kuroda's observation-Gui Yizheng's command and management abilities may not be as good as Shengtianmu, but at least far better than him. Gui Yizheng's abilities are fully qualified for the post of General of the First Army.

After Gui Yizheng was parachuted into the First Army, Kuroda was demoted to the rank of deputy of the First Army and was responsible for battling Gui Yizheng.

Although Gui Yizheng's ability is not bad, there is a place in him that makes Kuroda feel very impatient.

That's-this old guy loves hanging book bags too much.

I opened my mouth in "The Art of War of Sun Tzu", and "The Art of War of Wu Tzu" was closed.

Sure enough-after Kuroda's voice fell, Gui Yizheng nodded gently:

"The hero sees the same thing. It is said in "Sun Tzu Nine Lands":'The love of the soldier is the speed'. Now that the road ahead is smooth, then we really need to speed up a little bit.'

Hearing that Gui Yi was dropping the book bag again, Kuroda suppressed the urge to roll his eyes.

The day after Gui Yizheng airborne and became the general of their First Army, their First Army once again separated from the Second Army and continued to perform the important task of playing forward and opening the way for the whole army.

A large army must have a unit responsible for spearheading the whole army, conducting reconnaissance and clearing the way for the whole army.

Moreover-the first army and the second army add up to a total of 8,000 people, and in the pristine Ezo land, there are basically few roads that can provide 8,000 troops to advance. Only the division of troops can improve the efficiency of the march. Therefore, the re-separation of the First Army and the Second Army is inevitable.

After the separation of the First Army and the Second Army, Matsuba Dingxin also returned to the Second Army and acted with Inamori.

Just now, Kuroda and Katsura Yoshimasa were listening to the scout's report.

The soldier who was kneeling in front of them and kneeling in the middle of the camp just now was a scout who returned to the camp and reported on the reconnaissance situation.

Since the occurrence of the "Ogata Attack" incident, under Inamori's order, the number of scouts they sent to scout the road has tripled.

It's a pity-this dense reconnaissance network has not found Ogata Ichitosai until now.

Although Ogata Ichitosai was not found, because the number of scouts sent to reconnaissance increased, the reconnaissance efficiency was much higher than before.

According to the report of the scout who had just returned to the camp-the road ahead was smooth, and there were no rivers and other things that needed to be bridged.

That's why Kuroda said bluntly, "The road ahead is smooth, and you can move forward boldly with confidence, and speed up a little bit."

Gui Yizheng tapped the military comrade in his right hand to his left hand: "Since you and I have the same opinion, then make a decisive move."

"Kuroda-kun, please help me summon the generals."

"I want to convey to the generals the command to'speed up the march'!"

"Take a good rest tonight. Start to speed up the march tomorrow."

"Strive to ensure that within 4 days, the soldiers will approach the Red Moon Fortress!"

...

...

Red Moon Fortress——

After saying "of course", Kunoya, who was taking the medicine from the huge Chinese medicine cabinet, tilted her head and turned her puzzled gaze to Ah Ding.

"What? Is it possible that you have something important to do, and there is no way to stay here for a month?"

As soon as Ah Ting wanted to say something, Ogata on the side suddenly raised his hand and pulled at Ah Ting's sleeve, and then said to Kunoya:

"Then trouble you to treat my wife." Ogata bowed his head to Kunoya, and said in a loud voice, "If you need any compensation, please mention it to me as much as you want. Anything I can give, I Will do my best to give."

"You don't have to pay for anything." Kunoya gave an inexplicable smile, and then shrugged, "You can't give me what I want."

"Since you are brought by Asoma, you should be Asoma's friends."

"Esuma usually gives me a lot of care, so I won't charge you for this treatment."

"As long as you can cooperate with my treatment."

"I hate patients who don't cooperate with treatment, or who think they are smart, and go against the doctor's orders."

"Okay, I'm going to re-stitch your wound."

Kunoya took a variety of herbs and utensils, knelt back and sat down beside Ah Ding again.

"This is for you, bite it in your mouth, so that you can relax later."

Kunoya handed a clean cloth to Ah Ding's mouth.

"I'm going to use Lucia's wound suture technique to sew up your wound. It may be a little painful, so bear with me."

Amachi tilted his head and looked at Ogata-although there was something hidden, there was still a faint worry in his eyes.

For Amachi who cast a worried look at him, Ogata raised Amachi's hand.

"Amachi, the most important thing now is to make sure your injury can be cured first." Ogata said softly.

After hearing Ogata's words, Amachi pursed his lips.

After thinking about it for a while, he parted his teeth and bit the cloth that Kunoya handed.

"Bite tight." Kunoya put on a clean cloth like a mask, then picked up the utensils, and began to re-stitch the wound on Acho.

And after Kunoya started to treat Amachi's injuries, Asoma seemed to finally be unable to restrain her curiosity, and asked Ogata:

"Mr. Mashima, how did Ms. Ading hurt so badly? I think her wound looks like a wound stabbed by a spear..."

"...Before I talk about what happened after we left Heyezhe...Aishuma, please tell me what happened to Heyezhe these days."

Ogata turned his head to look at Esuma, and then said sternly:

"Just now when I was outside the gate of the wall, I found that the people on the wall were weird."

"Many people are nervous and panicked."

"After entering Heyezhe, the people watching us on the side of the road were the same. They all looked at me and Ading with nervous and panic eyes."

"It was obviously not like this before."

"What happened to Heyezhe during the time we left Heyezhe?"

Hearing the question that Ogata threw, Asoma was stunned.

After the color of hesitation flickered in the depths of Esuma's eyes for a while, she sighed lightly:

"I'm sorry... Mr. Mashima, please forgive me. Everyone is just...a little scared... afraid that you are the enemy..."

"The enemy?" Ogata frowned slightly.

"A few days ago, there were two guests...no...I said that the guests were a bit inaccurate. It should be that two uninvited guests suddenly came to us Heyezhe..."

"It is because of the second uninvited guest who'comes' here" that made Heyezhe into the current state of being a soldier..."

Asoma cleared her throat, and then slowly told Ogata about what happened a few days ago...

...

...

Back in time a few days ago-

...

...

A few days ago--

Red Moon Fortress, outside Chanup’s home——

"It's so slow...what the **** is my father talking to that **** of soup, talking for so long..." Esuma looked at the door in front of her and pouted displeasedly.

Kim Ship, who was ordered by Chanup to guard the door of his house and kept no one from entering the house, smiled bitterly when he heard Esuma's muttering with a richly unpleasant color.

Just now, after learning that an old man named "Tang Shen" suddenly came to visit her father, Esuma hurried back home, wanting to see what was going on-but she had a closed door.

Chanup did not allow anyone to enter, so Esuma was directly turned away.

She had been waiting for nearly half an hour, and she hadn't waited until the door of her house opened, and she didn't wait until her father and the Kazuto named Tangshen came out.

"It's boring... I won't wait." Esuma stood up and patted her butt.

"Miss Esuma, are you leaving?" Kim Shipp asked.

"Well. Waiting here is really boring." Esuma patted the bow and arrow behind her back, "I'll go to practice bow and arrow again."

"Miss Esuma, you are really hardworking." Kim Ship said with heartfelt emotion, "If only my son could be half as hard as you..."

"After all, besides hunting, I don't have any other hobbies."

After bidding farewell to Kim Ship, Asoma strode towards her usual bow practice venue.

My home is far behind.

The favorite bow training venue is getting closer.

Just after the bow training ground appeared in Esuma's field of vision, from the corner of her eyes, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure rushing towards her.

"Otunpuyi." Esuma stopped. "What's the matter? It's so violent."

This familiar figure is Otunpuyi, Esuma's younger brother.

"Sister!" Otunpuyi rushed to Esuma and said breathlessly, "Ha...sister...finally found you...ha...sister, something went wrong! There is Takta. The villagers of the village have come to us!"

"Huh? Is it weird for the villagers of Takta Village to come to us?" Esuma showed a puzzled expression.

Takta Village, which is not too far away from them, has a very good relationship with them. The two places often communicate with courtesy. Therefore, it is quite normal for villagers from Takta Village to suddenly visit them. .

Otunpuyi shook his head vigorously.

"The villagers of Takta Village who suddenly came to us did not come to give us gifts! They came to us for help! He said that their Takta Village was attacked by the Japanese! The village was destroyed, and I hope Heyezhe can help. help him!"

"What?!" Esuma's eyes widened suddenly.

"Now that person is outside the wall." Otunpuyi added, "Everyone on the wall is at a loss now..."

"Let's go! Let's go and see!" Aizuma spread her feet and ran all the way in the direction of the city wall.

After the city wall appeared in her field of vision, Aizuma saw that there had been a lot of villagers gathered under the city wall who had heard relevant news and rushed to join in the fun.

And after rushing to the bottom of the inner city wall, Essuma heard a stern shout from outside the wall:

"Our village of Takta was slaughtered by the people!"

"Please help me! I'm homeless!"

The shouting is so loud and stern, even standing under the inner city wall, you can clearly hear it, and you can clearly feel the sorrow between the words...

...

...

Time back to now

...

...

"Taketa Village?" Ogata's pupils shrank slightly.

And A Ting, who was biting on the cloth pad and enduring the pain of stitching up the wound, his face changed slightly.

Takta Village-it is the village where Lilata came from that they had rescued before...

The tragedy of Takta Village... Ogata doesn't know if Acho remembers it, but he still remembers it anyway.

Without noticing the slight changes in the faces of Ogata and Amachi, Asoma continued:

"After that villager from Takta Village came to our place, the person who was standing on the wall at the time notified my father."

"After my father put the man in, we finally knew what was going on."

"This villager from Takta Village who fled to us is a very young boy."

"On the other night, the village of Takta was suddenly attacked by a group of soldiers with helmets and armour."

"The young man escaped the village by chance. He has been hiding in the mountains, and he didn't dare to return to the village to check the current situation of the village until dawn."

"After returning to the village, I saw the village that had been slaughtered and there were no living people..."

"The young man is homeless and can only ask for help from us who has a good relationship with them in Takta Village."

"He was planning to walk to Heyezhe on foot, but he was very lucky to run into a kind man from another settlement on the road."

"After knowing what happened to the young man, the kind man personally used his dog sled to send the young man to us Heyzhe."

"Since this survivor from Takta Village came to Heyezhe, we Heyezhe can be said to have been full of rumors these days..."

Esuma gave a wry smile.

"Everyone is panicked... I don't understand why Heren's army appeared, and why Heren's army suddenly attacked Takta Village, which has not done anything to offend or offend people..."

"So gradually all kinds of rumors spread."

"It is said that he finally planned to start a full-scale war against us Ainu, and that the group who attacked Takta village was a group of gold diggers who had stolen the armor of the army... In short, there are no rumors. Have……"

"It is because of these rumors that the people of the tribe are now so nervous when they see that you have a human face."

"All in all-please forgive me..."

"...So that's it." Ogata closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Mr. Mashima, Ms. Ading." At this time, Esuma put on a face that seemed a bit eager to lead her, "You are a Japanese. Before you left your country, did you hear about it? What happened to us Ainu? For example, where do you and the human army launch an offensive...?"

Ogata did not immediately answer Esuma's question.

Only closed his eyes and kept silent.

After opening his eyes again, Ogata whispered to Esuma beside him:

"Miss Esuma, can you please take me to see your father later?"

"Ah? It can be...but my father should be busy now, and he may not be able to see him in time..."

"It's okay~www.wuxiahere.com~ Ogata continued, "Just take me to see him, I want to see him as soon as possible. "

ps1: Many book friends may not know what "military match" is, so the author is here to post a set of stills with you. This is a still from the movie "Shadow Warrior" made by the famous director Akira Kurosawa Can be watched online) →

ps2: In the last chapter, when Kunoya used scissors to cut the linen on Ah Ding's upper body, I actually did a little... more exciting description.

But I was worried about being harmonized, so I changed it to "After cutting the linen cloth in one breath, Kunoya raised her eyebrows."

The original text actually has about 50 characters.

In order to avoid harmony in this book, many places have been "self-dressed" before being released. It is a pity... these "self-dressing" plots should have no chance to be released (Leopard has a headache. jpg )
