Chapter 862 Bloody Jeolla Road (6)

【If you must die, you will live, if you must live, you will die】

Japan, Fushimi Castle.

A thin old man with a pale face was writing at his desk. The fonts were square and Chinese characters.

As if he had a feeling in his heart, he suddenly turned his gaze to the northwest, and made a prediction for the next battle.

Then, he coughed up a few mouthfuls of bloody sputum gently.

Perhaps this sentence also alludes to its own destiny.

More than ten years ago, he vowed to be loyal to the successor of his master Oda Nobunaga, but in the end he couldn't resist the temptation and broke his promise to take the power into his own hands.

Today, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who is admired by young noble warriors such as Shimadzu Tadahiro, feels guilty, because he is about to die soon, and the medicine stone is difficult to cure.

But what should I do with my young son?

Will Tokugawa, Maeda, and other daimyos serve him faithfully and promise never to betray?

Half of Hideyoshi's mind was involved in the war, and half of his mind was devoted to his youngest son.

A lot of money and power have been invested in this majestic Fushimi Castle in front of him, but in Hideyoshi's eyes, it is far inferior to the "Shi" born by his concubine Yododen.

Because, after losing the two-year-old Tsurumatsu, the boy became the sole heir of the Toyotomi family.

Before that, Hideyoshi once thought that he would never have any more sons, so he appointed his nephew, 24-year-old adopted son Hideji, as Guanbai. —

Wandering in the countryside with iron cannons, he saw old farmers working and became interested, so he shot and killed them.

When practicing shooting, he impromptuly captured passing travelers and tied them up as targets.

In order to hone his sword skills, he cut pregnant women open.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi didn't care about this because of the connection between Hideji and his own blood, but with the birth of "Shi", everything changed.

One night, Shasheng Guanbai disappeared completely, and his head was circulated to Kyoto. From that moment on, all the daimyos in Japan knew that Lord Taiko had a real heir, a nicknamed "Shi" and a real name "Hideyori" "boy.

But at this moment, except for a piece of writing on the desktop, the rest are all letters.

[Is Shi's body getting better and better? 】

【Is he drinking milk? Please let Shi drink enough milk and take good care of him. You should eat more to ensure adequate nutrition. 】

[Don't give me noble wormwood, if you let someone use it for him, it's a crime! 】

Due to the war, Hideyoshi had to leave the child in the first year of his life, and he could only use this commanding tone to ask his concubine Yododen to take good care of him.

In recent years, Hideyoshi has written letters to his youngest son with the title of "Father Taiko", and the letters are filled with pride and love for the child's slow growth.

[You wrote me a letter right away, I am very happy. I plan to set aside some free time and hurry back. Because you like masks, I have sent someone to find some as gifts, even Ming Dynasty ones. 】

[Because I love you so much, I will go back and kiss your lips.

I'm so sad because I didn't say goodbye to you when I left yesterday. I guess you feel the same way, I won't complain about it here anymore. I am writing this letter because I love you dearly. 】

【In order to prepare for the festival, you gave me a curtain and a lot of clothes, I am very happy. I will wear them and hope you live a long, happy life. When the festival day comes, I will go back and kiss you. It's so good.

I will be going back at the end of the year. I will kiss your lips, it is mine and no one else can kiss it, not even a little. I can imagine that you are getting better and better. 】

Hideyoshi sorted out the letters he and his son had exchanged in the past few years and put them in the most conspicuous place so that they can be viewed and recalled at any time.

Now, his life is not long, and Hideyori sent a letter on his own initiative, saying that four playmates bullied him and were unwilling to follow instructions.

Therefore, after practicing calligraphy, Hideyoshi immediately wrote back to his son, telling him how to keep the power in his hands, especially after his death.

[Those four boys violated your wishes, this is an unforgivable thing, tell your mother, and then tie up these four guys with straw ropes until father returns to you.

When I go back, I will kill them all! 】

Put down the pen and examine the reply.

Through this letter, Hideyoshi seemed to see the future. He coughed continuously, gulped down the blood that came up, and then wiped the blood with his Chinese clothes.

Is it true that a daimyo who swears allegiance to the Toyotomi family forever? In the past few years, more than once, he ordered the powerful daimyo under his command to swear an oath to Hideyori again and again.

But this group of ambitious people are actually just like me!

"No, I can't die! I want to watch Hideyori grow up, marry a wife and have children, and become the new Taiko of Japan."

Violence and a trace of fear flashed in Toyotomi Hideyoshi's eyes. He thought of his own nephew, Seki Sekibaku who was ordered to be executed.

After ordering Xiuci and his retainers to commit suicide by caesarean section, Hideyoshi ordered the executioner to execute his nephew's wives, concubines and children in turn in order to consolidate power for his son.

In a place called Santiaoheyuan, the children were first dragged out of the prison cart to be executed, followed by the women. They were led over one by one, knelt down on the ground, beheaded, and buried in a deep pit.

Hideyoshi still clearly remembers that he deliberately ordered a temple to be built on it to remove resentment and evil spirit, and there is a stone tablet:

【Hideji Evil Tomb】

If Hideyori is overthrown by daimyos after his death, then his end will definitely not be much better than Hideji.

Because of this, Hideyoshi resisted death, and streams of fishy black matter flowed from his eye sockets.

"If I can expand the territory and grab more luck, I! I can still live!"

A crazy idea flashed in his mind, just like a red-eyed gambler never lacks courage.

the other side.

Shimadzu Tadahiro, who led the eight hundred Satsuma warriors, did not realize that there was a heavy burden on his shoulders.

Because, the upcoming battle in Namwon, Jeolla-do is the first confrontation between Japan and Ming since the war broke out again, which is of great significance.

But Zhongheng is very confident now, looking to the side, said in a deep voice:

"No matter how powerful the enemy is, it will become a weak sheep in front of the current flow."

"You're right."

Tang Chuan immediately agreed.

Hundreds of miles away, in the mountains and forests.

Lu Li locked onto the breath coming from ahead, holding the iron halberd in his hand, and waited silently.

The black-maned horse kicked all four hooves. It was not afraid, but excited. After a long time, it finally appeared on the battlefield again!

As for life and death?

It is not to be ignored, but it is not far away.

Anyway, it can be revived.

Moreover, with the strength of the master, there is absolutely no possibility of being trapped here.

"The monsters and wild gods at Su Xingling and Liaochuan are willing to cooperate with the officers and soldiers to increase the chances of winning the situation. Unfortunately, it is too late, Tunshanling has been slaughtered."

Smelling the approaching bloody smell, Lu Li couldn't help sighing. At the same time, he took out a blank piece of paper from his bosom.

This is the handwriting of a great Confucianism, which can summon more than a hundred soldiers in golden armor and strengthen their prestige.

From the beginning to the end, Lu Li didn't intend to use this thing to kill the enemy, he whispered in his heart:

The first battle must be won, and won happily.

Close your eyes.

Gather momentum.

In this way, the surrounding fell into silence.

In the middle, a cricket jumped onto Lu Li's shoulder, and then quickly jumped away. It didn't feel that the thing it just stepped on was actually a living thing.

"coming."

After an unknown amount of time, the black-maned horse suddenly spoke.

Lu Li also opened his eyes.

Behind him, an azure wolf synchronized with it.

"Spirit of War? General Ming? Dare to attack with only a hundred people?"

Shimadzu Tadani's tone was excited.

Beside, Tang Chuan's eyes were full of surprise.

Looking forward to the stars and looking forward to the moon, I finally saw the savior. I didn't expect it to come so soon.

It seems that the big boss attaches great importance to me!

This guy made up too many unrealistic scenes in his head. In the eyes of the Japanese, his expression was definitely suspicious, but he didn't care at the moment.

The two forces collided head-on, and in an instant, a strong killing aura manifested, filling the space between the heaven and the earth.

At this level, evil spirits, killing intent, and even spiritual power can all be transformed into concrete things.

I saw eight hundred Satsuma warriors linked together, and a phantom of a demon god immediately appeared in the sky above the battle formation.

He was wearing a strangely shaped pocket, armor, waist armor skirt, and a red robe, holding a samurai sword, and stared at Lu Li expressionlessly.

Behind Lu Li, the blue sky wolf raised its head and roared, as if looking down at the sky.

For some reason, Tang Chuan, who was watching from the sidelines, suddenly thought of Lu Bu, the God of War.

"OK くぞ!"

Even people who don't understand Japanese can guess what it means.

Following Shimadzu Tadahiro's order, countless samurai rushed up immediately.

However, the vision of ghosts and gods floating in the sky did not move, because Sirius was confronting it.

Lu Li hadn't experienced the thrill of fighting in battle for a long time, but when he saw the Satsuma warriors charging forward, his killing intent immediately reached its peak.

Wielding the strengthened iron halberd, the sound of sonic booms continued one after another. He had fought with this group of warriors dozens of times while breathing.

However, from another point of view, it can be regarded as a fulfillment.

The body of a samurai with a strange haircut is separated!

A pair of Japanese horses as short as donkeys still maintained their momentum and galloped forward with their owners on their backs, but there were only headless torsos left on their backs.

As a large amount of blood spurted out from the cavity, the last ray of blood flowed out, and the legs clamping the sides of the horse's belly gave out instantly.

bang bang bang.

The sound of falling was endless.

The blood mist fell all over the sky, but he couldn't get close to Lu Li. He hooked his fingers towards Shimadzu Tadahiro:

"Little devil, they can't do it, you come."

The Japanese aristocrats have learned Chinese culture since childhood. As the second son of the family, Tadahiro Shimadzu has obviously received higher education. Hearing the enemy general's provocation, he immediately pulled out the sheathed samurai sword.

However, Zuo Jin's attendants drew their swords first, they were retainers, if the young master made any mistakes, they would have to commit seppuku.

"shoot!"

It is worth mentioning that Tadahiro Shimadzu does not intend to abide by the so-called Bushido.

Because he couldn't figure out the details of the man in front of him. Anyway, if he cut off his head and nose, he made a military exploit. Who cares how he killed him?

bang bang bang!

The Japanese iron cannon roared.

The magic-modified black powder burned, ejecting powerful projectiles, causing the surrounding air to vibrate violently.

Previously, Lu Li had made up his mind to judge the power of this weapon by relying on his armor and his own body to harden the bullets.

Between the lightning and the flint, the fiery bullets bullied him, he did not dodge or dodge, and greeted him head-on.

Under the crotch, the black-maned horse was helpless.

It doesn't have a harness, but like the Bull Demon, it has a set of battle armor carefully crafted by its master, which must enter the second form before it can be used.

And the black-maned horse didn't want to take it hard, after all, not everyone had absolute confidence in their own strength like Lu Li.

The black light flickered, with a little bit of moonlight and stars, tightly wrapping the black-maned horse from head to tail, and those projectiles collided, like a mud cow entering the sea, and were immediately disintegrated.

clang! Clank!

The ringing of gold and iron can be heard endlessly.

Tang Chuan sighed when he saw the power of the mythical musket, which was still unable to break through the armor defense after such a high-intensity shot.

Is this the big dog?

The god iron is like a Chinese cabbage on the street, forged into such a strong and large-scale armor.

clang!

The last collision sound exploded on his left cheek. Lu Li, who hadn't used any supernatural powers, felt a little pain, but the marks left on it quickly faded away.

"What kind of demon technique did you use, iron cannons can easily penetrate even rocks..." Shimadzu Tadatoshi was surprised, speaking in fluent Chinese.

Unfortunately, no answer came.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lu Li uttered a sentence of Japanese that he learned before the exam:

"あなたは红鹿ですか?"

The effect is outstanding.

As soon as the words fell, Shimadzu Tadahiro and his retainers became furious, and rushed up one after another brandishing their samurai swords, as did the group of family soldiers behind them, surrounding the generals of the Ming army who had left their tribe.

Everyone except Tang Chuan felt that Lu Li was too arrogant. He even took the initiative to get away from the more than a hundred cavalry behind him, and stopped him alone in front of the army.

Times have changed.

Today, there is no wind of challenge.

It is not popular to show off the benefits of tongue.

The Satsuma warriors attacked from all directions, showing Lu Li their aura!

Bears, boars, giant whales.

All kinds of visions are manifested, which are formed by the combination of knife skills, one's own will, and the things that are usually visualized.

After all, the island nation doesn't have too many beasts.

"kill!"

Lu Li yelled, and the eyes of Sirius, who was confronting the demon god, narrowed slightly, and the blue light attached to the halberd became blazing.

The heads of dead people were flying all over the sky, and under the strong wind, Pi Lian's blood was directly beaten into fine foam smaller than beads. The handed down samurai sword, known as indestructible, turned into a streamer under the iron halberd, facing countless Fly to the unknown far sky.

Eight hundred warriors full of confidence, against Lu Li, who was not in full swing, seemed to end in a disastrous defeat.

Shimadzu Tadashi's face was serious.

Tang Chuan noticed that while the brat was making a gesture of holding the knife and watching the retainers go up to die one after another, while beating the beat with his fingers, it seemed to be conveying some news.

ninja?

subpoena?

All kinds of thoughts flashed by, Tang Chuan forcibly pressed them down, endured humiliation until now, and the opportunity to make meritorious deeds was close at hand.

"Little ghost, do you want to dance too?"

Shout out the lines that have been restrained for a long time.

Gather energy into a blade!

Tang Chuan, who was hiding behind, used all means to launch this impeccable surprise attack.

The right time, the right place, and the harmony of people are all there.

What to lose?

No matter how bad it is, he is also a member of the elite class, this blow cannot be underestimated by anyone!

Therefore, when the sense of penetration came, Tang Chuan smiled proudly:

"The enemy will hit ち取ったり......"

"The enemy shames me to take off his clothes."
