"Assemble quickly, I heard from you that you will be moving this morning. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Yes, I can finally deal a fatal blow to the shogunate."

"We want to let the shogunate know how powerful we are!"

"Let's gather in the open space in the middle, and the commander-in-chief will assign tasks to us."

It was supposed to be a quiet and peaceful morning, but at this time there was a noisy sound of footsteps and conversations, and Tsuki, who was awakened by the sound, lifted the futon, got up and walked out of the tent, and the warriors outside were gathering in the big open space in the middle. At this time, an uncle rushed to the side of Tsuki's tent, "Tsuki, you've woken up, Tatsugoro just asked me to come over and wake you up, let's go, the commander-in-chief is going to distribute tasks to the various teams in the open space, everyone has arrived, let's go over together." ”

The two walked together towards the open space in the middle of the camp.

“…… I think you already know the reason why we are gathered here, yes, the shogunate has gathered their main force here, and wants to sweep away the warriors around Edo, but we will not admit defeat so easily, we will fight a beautiful counterattack, we will let the celestials, let the shogunate understand the horror of samurai......" When the moon arrived, the commander-in-chief was already on a platform to give an inspiring speech before the battle.

"Next, let's talk about our operational deployment, this time, the shogunate gathered their superior forces near Takeshu, and the terrain of Takeshu is a basin terrain, which is very suitable for ambush warfare, although the shogunate's troops and weapons are stronger than ours, but with the terrain, we can still fight this battle, so what we have to do is to lead the shogunate's troops to this basin and then give them a hard blow. Longtao A, you lead your troops to the eastern hillside, Longtao B, your troops go to the western slope, Longtao C, your troops go to the southern hillside, Terada, you take your troops to the northern hillside, you have to ambush well, don't act rashly. Dragon set D, your troops will be bait, fight and retreat, and lead the shogunate army to this basin, Saigo, you take some people to be stationed outside the basin to block the support forces of the shogunate army, and I will lead the headquarters and sit in the base camp to support everyone at any time in case of accidents. There should be no objection to such an arrangement. ”

"Nope."

"Okay, then you take your troops to deploy according to the order, don't make any mistakes, everything is based on signal flares, red signal flares represent being attacked and need support, green signal flares mean that there is no problem, you can attack, dragon set D, when you lead the shogunate army to the designated place, hit orange signal flares, which means that the plan is successful, at this time, the ambushed army can attack. Finally, I wish you good luck and prosperity! The commander-in-chief bowed to the aspirants in the audience.

Seeing that everyone left in a hurry, Tatsugoro also began to gather his troops and prepare to move towards the northern hillside.

……

……

On the northern slope of the mountain, Tatsugoro is watching the terrain of this place, the slope is very gentle, suitable for troops to dive, and the view is also very wide, from the hillside you can look around, and you can see clearly from the bottom of the hillside. If you look at it this way, it's a good ambush spot, but ......

"Jiro, when the time comes to war, not only should you look down the hillside, but also watch behind you." Tatsugoro explained to Jiro.

"You mean ......?" When Jiro heard Tatsugoro's words, his face changed drastically.

"That's right, it's what you think, but don't tell everyone now, so as not to cause unnecessary panic, morale is very important at this time." Tatsugoro's face was solemn, his clenched fists were full of sweat, he knew that the importance of this war must be arranged well to minimize casualties, "Once there is a situation, don't care about the situation below, we will go all out to break through the outside, and there will be a few that can be highlighted." ”

"But in this case, the commander-in-chief's base camp ......" Jiro Chang looked embarrassed and hesitated.

"There's no time left to take care of him, and now in this situation, it's best to be able to take care of himself." The struggle in Tatsugoro's heart is not stronger than the moon, he also wants to protect everyone, he also wants to retreat, but in this case, the retreat, regardless of whether the shogunate has set a trap or not, he and his team will definitely bear the infamy, it is better to do his best to fight a beautiful counterattack. Regardless of whether this battle is a defeat or not, it came at the right time, and the current warriors need a big battle to prove themselves!

Moon felt a bit of a headache at this point, and he struggled to open his eyes, only to find himself lying on a small cart that was moving rapidly. Tsuki struggled to get up, and saw Ichiro pushing the cart behind and running forward desperately, but the direction of the cart at this time was exactly the opposite direction of the battlefield.

"Ichiro, what's the situation, why are the two of us out of the battlefield, give me back, I still have to participate in the battle!" Yue was sweating profusely at this time, and said with a weak face, "Why, my body is like this?" ”

"Don't struggle anymore, Yue, when I went to the designated place, the captain drugged you, I thought you would wake up tomorrow, looking at your current situation, you should also be carrying the effect of the medicine, you can't go back to the battlefield, give up." Ichiro didn't raise his head and continued to push the cart.

Tsuki remembered at this time, just as he was going to the northern hillside with the troops, Tatsugoro came over and handed him a pot of water for him to drink, it must be at this time, Tsuki angrily smashed his fist on the cart, "Damn, Tatsugoro, why do you want this!" ”

"Yue, the captain is also for your good, he said, you are our hope, the hope of the entire war, so, you have to live well, lead the rest of the warriors, continue to fight against the shogunate." Ichiro remembered the hopeful look in the captain's eyes when he mentioned the moon.

Why are you like this, Tatsugoro, Tsuki remembered the smile of Tatsugoro that day in the grove, "I see, you have planned it a long time ago, Tatsugoro." ”
