West Ridge. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Dozens of mountains are craggy, surrounded by verdant trees, deep forests and birdsong, and inaccessible. And at the highest point, stood two hills nestled together. Between the dark hills, there is a rugged mountain road.

Regardless of the distance, there are many ways to get from Edo to Nishi-Ueno. However, the other roads are either many times more tortuous or full of thieves and chaos.

The mountain road of Xiling, although a little rugged, is open and calm. What's even better is that when the war comes, as long as you send a little man, you can immediately pull up a strong pass.

In this era of frighteningly low productivity, it is almost impossible to break through such a barrier and reach Nishiueno! And even if it costs a lot of money to break through this mountain, it still leaves enough time for Nishiueno to prepare!

Just as the Blood Moon was attacking Nishi-Ueno, in the distance, at the end of this mountain road, a middle-aged man in a black and gray samurai uniform was speeding up.

Whoosh!

His feet are light and his body is like flying.

The wind whistled in his ears, and the middle-aged man swept along the mountain road with the agility of a cheetah, leaving only the leaves swaying.

The morning sun passed through the woods and landed on the man, only to see a cold face under the messy black hair, and a pair of fierce eyes like spiders.

This person is none other than the strongest ninja in the history of the Imperial Court - Orea!

"Takeda Shingen?" As she ran, Raida occasionally looked up, and suddenly her eyes rolled violently, and she muttered in a terrifying tone.

"Anyone who stands in the way of the general will die!"

The sound of the yin measurement is dispersed with the wind.

.........

Nishi-Ueno, in front of the castle.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Harita sighed and felt a sense of emptiness in her heart.

Revenge is never a pleasant thing!

Uncle Ape Fei, this is the first one! I will never let go of the other person!

There was a moment of silence in his heart, after all, Haruma had experienced a lot, adjusted his mentality slightly, took a deep breath, his face returned to indifference, and shouted, "Takeda Shingen is dead!" Those who surrender do not kill! ”

Now that the Takeda family's governor and young master are dead, it should be time for this battle to end! He wants to use Takeda Shingen's corpse to crush and crush the enemy's last resistance!

"How so?! Shingen-sama has been killed! ”

"Lord Governor!" Takeda Shingen's subordinates turned their heads with frightened, incredulous expressions, and then saw Takeda Shingen's dead body.

"Sunny man!"

"Chief!" Harita's men cheered, and their combat power soared instantly, causing the enemy to retreat.

The enemy, on the other hand, was losing their souls one after another, originally they were struggling to support it, and they fought hard by believing in the will of their lord, but now, Takeda Shingen is dead, and their resistance is naturally much smaller.

Some of them immediately laid down their weapons and knelt on the ground to express their willingness to surrender, while others were still fighting hard, spilling blood and tears, and some people committed suicide on the spot!

The lord is dead, and these people who follow the bushido have no face to live anymore, so they choose to end their lives in such an honorable way!

Seppuku, a suicide ritual in which the abdomen is cut open with a knife, is considered a dignified death by the Japanese, and is mainly practiced by Japanese samurai. And this way of committing suicide by following the lord is called "chasing the belly"!

After slicing open the abdomen with a short knife, the companion who remained on the side immediately stepped forward and swung his knife to cut off their heads, ending their suffering!

For those who resisted, the cardinal samurai did not spare their hands and simply ended their lives neatly, and almost all of them paid tribute to those who performed bushido and cut their stomachs on the spot.

Everyone consciously left an open space for the seppuku.

Whether stupid or loyal, such a spirit is always commendable!

"Clean up the battlefield! You enter the Castle of Acceptance! Inform Murakami, blockade Nishi-Ueno, and no one will be allowed to enter or leave except our people! Harita commanded and put away her knife.

"And Yuichiro, let him patrol the whole city, and once he encounters a troublemaker, he will immediately suppress it!"

"Send someone to contact Tomoko again, and say that Nishiueno has been captured! Let her be stationed there for the time being. If you go to the city and post a notice, it means that our Blood Moon has succeeded in defeating Takeda, so that they can rest assured! ”

Takeda, the clan is annihilated!

The city of Nishi-Ueno is now its own! Harita looked up at the rising sun in the east, full of pride for a moment.

.........

West Ridge.

Landrea slowed down and crawled through the jungle, cautiously advancing. And at the pass in front of him, the figure of a group of red-clothed warriors loomed.

They were divided into small teams, closely connected, and probed back and forth around the pass.

"They are?" Raya's narrow eyes showed a hint of confusion.

Isn't there no garrison here in Xiling?

That's right, the agreement signed between Takeda Shingen and the shogunate included this article. It was agreed that the Takeda clan would pledge allegiance to the shogunate and withdraw their troops from Nishiling, and the shogunate could not attack Nishiueno at will, so there should be no garrison here!

Although Lei Lei couldn't get the specific information of the agreement, the information about the garrison was still very clear.

Could it be a bandit? Suddenly, a warrior in his field of vision turned his back to him, a blood-colored moon embroidered behind his red warrior suit.

Blood Moon!

The thought crossed Landrea's mind.

The group of aspirants who registered in the shogunate! And their leader is none other than the little ghost in Hanzo's mouth before-Harita Sugimoto!

A flash of murderous intent flashed in Raida's eyes, and it quickly disappeared.

He had perverted allegiance to the shoguns of the shogunate, but that didn't mean he was a fool. The people of the Blood Moon are all highly skilled, and all of them are good at coming down from the battlefield.

Even he, who is known as the strongest ninja in the history of the Imperial Court, does not want to be surrounded by them.

What's more, the most important thing now is to figure out why the people of the Blood Moon are here, and how is Nishiueno now? Is his character target, Shingen Takeda, still alive?

Thundera stuck out her slippery tongue and licked her lips.

Let's leave this group of guys out for now!

He crawled his body, turned into a black shadow, silently, and quietly passed through the blood moon's defensive line and passed this pass. Dozens of samurai came and went, but none of them were able to find him. The strength of the strongest ninja in the history of the Imperial Court is fully revealed at this moment!

An hour later, near Nishi-Ueno.

Landrea lay in the grass beneath the city, his sharp eyes observing the situation at the head of the city.

I saw a red-clothed warrior patrolling the city walls. At the main entrance, barricades were opened. The once bustling city gate is now silent as a bird's nest.

Thundera chuckled in her heart.

Could it be that Nishiueno has already been occupied by the Blood Moon?!

As the upper ninja of the Imperial Court, even if the popularity is so bad that it is to death, there are still a lot of benefits that should be there. He can watch a lot of information at will, and it includes the leaders of all parties!

In fact, one of the important reasons for the establishment of the Imperial Court was to clean up the opposition for the shogunate!

Many of the outstanding people in the Warriors have been assassinated by the people of the Imperial Court, and some of the tricky guys are even the hands of Leya himself!

It can be said that in the eyes of the aspirants, the shogunate and the imperial court are equally unforgivable existences!

This is probably one of the reasons why the Imperial Court was closed so easily.

And the Blood Moon Organization, as well as the identity of their leader, the Rakshasas, information is the focus of the Royal Court's attention. After many investigations, and even invited the "psychology masters" of the celestial beings to refer to it, they identified one of Harita's weaknesses - Ape Flying Calamus!

However, it's a pity that the old man of Hanzo didn't agree to use the ape flying calamus as bait, and even sealed this information!

Although Reya was a little dissatisfied with this, he didn't say much because of Hanzo's identity.

Because from beginning to end, the general's trust in Hanzo is much more than him!

Clearing the confusion in his head, Raida decided to sneak into Nishi-Ueno. The Blood Moon Organization has occupied Nishiueno, and the Takeda clan, who have a grudge against Haruma, is obviously unlikely to end well!

The mission has most likely failed!

However, for the sake of the shogun, for the sake of the shogunate, the distorted mentality of Reya decided to break into Longtan!
