After Shen Weijing rushed back to Busan from the Wa Kingdom, he immediately urged Konishi Yukito to release the two princes.

Konishi Yukishi hastened to inform the supreme commander of the Japanese army stationed in Korea, Ukita Hideie, and the three accompanying military commissioners that Toyotomi Hideyoshi had agreed to release the two princes.

With the permission of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the top brass of the Japanese army in the DPRK agreed to release the two princes and return to Wangjing, and immediately excluded the envoys and rushed to Wangjing to inform the DPRK.

After receiving the notice, the DPRK side was naturally ecstatic.

The DPRK and the Japanese agreed that the DPRK would send a team of men and horses to the north bank of the Luxi River north of Pusan to meet the two princes; The Japanese army stationed in Busan was responsible for escorting the two princes from Busan safely to the north bank of the Luxi River to complete the handover.

After the Japanese envoys left, the Korean court did not dare to slack off, and immediately formed a welcoming team of more than 500 people. Under the command of Li Ruzhu, this team set off from Wang Jing and rushed to the north bank of the Luxi River.

This team of more than 500 people, in addition to the 400 masters carefully selected by Li Ruzhu from the King's Praetorian Guard, also includes more than 100 logistics support personnel. This logistics team is specifically responsible for the diet, daily life, health and medical care of the two princes. As a female medical officer, Jin Yingzi was fortunate to be selected by the imperial court to be the logistics staff responsible for the medical security of the two princes this time.

The greeting procession of 500 people traveled all the way and arrived at the agreed handover location two days ahead of schedule.

According to the agreement between the DPRK and the Wa state, the Wa state was responsible for sending the two princes to Beiwangting on the north bank of the Luxi River around 6 June, and after the two sides completed the handover, the DPRK side was responsible for the security of the two princes on the journey from Beiwangting to Wangjing.

Early in the morning of June 6, the Japanese people in Busan City began to assemble a team to escort the prince to the north, escorting the two captured Korean princes, and set out from the place where the two princes were held in Busan City to the Luxi River in the north of the city.

In order to ensure that the two princes were safely delivered to the Koreans, in addition to carefully selecting a hundred elite samurai to undertake the escort mission, Ichiro Sugitani also approached Ichiro Sugitani, and ordered Ichiro Sugitani to send a team of ninjas to escort him.

Sugitani Ichiro did not dare to slack off, and he ordered Mieko Kato to lead fifty ninjas with the team.

After consultation between Ichiro Sugitani and Yukicho Konishi, the escort team of 150 people was unified under the command of Mieko Kato.

Due to the weakness of Shun Hejun's health, the Japanese people specially prepared an ox cart, which had a carport made of thick wooden planks, although the shed was a little crowded, but the two princes were crowded in the carport, and the safety factor was still quite high.

Mieko Kato made a reasonable division of labor for this escort team of more than 100 people: fifty ninjas gathered around the ox cart and were responsible for personal protection; A hundred samurai formed in a square formation and guarded the perimeter. Mieko Kato herself walked at the front of the team in order to find the enemy situation at any time and deal with it in time.

An hour after leaving the city, the escort team of the Japanese came to the bamboo forest in the north of the city.

Busan is located on the coast, with abundant rainfall and humid soil, which is suitable for bamboo growth in many places. In many courtyards in Busan, you can see the shadow of bamboo. However, most of the bamboos in the Busan stone are scattered and thin-leaved water bamboos and ink bamboos, and most of them are dotted in the corner courtyards, adding a touch of green to the lives of the citizens.

The only bamboo forest in the northern part of Busan is formed by a mixture of tall and thick four-season bamboo and Xiangfei bamboo. It was in a valley between two peaks, blocking the southern entrance to the valley.

As the only way to get from Busan to the Lugye River, this bamboo forest on the south side of the valley is trampled out of a winding forest path by passers-by who cross the Luxi River to do business in Gimhae and Changwon, and as the only way to get from Busan to the Luxi River.

"Vehicles move quickly along the path, and all personnel keep up in formation." At the entrance to the path, Mieko Kato shouted an order to the team behind her.

Before the escort team left, Ichiro Sugitani called Mieko Kato into his room and told Mieko Kato: According to

Information came from the country that someone tried to secretly assassinate the two princes in order to disrupt the peace between the Wa Kingdom and the Ming Dynasty. Lord Sekihaku ordered us ninjas to do a good job of escorting the two princes, and not to let this peace talk fall on the ground. With the identity of the assassin unknown, Ichiro Sugitani demanded that once Mieko Kato found the assassin, in addition to ensuring the safety of the two princes, she must catch one alive.

Hearing Mieko Kato's order, more than a hundred guards did not dare to slack off, and they all cheered up with full spirit, escorting the ox cart pulling the two princes into the bamboo forest.

Mieko Kato dragged the ninja sword diagonally and walked alertly at the front of the line.

"Hum-hum-hum-" Suddenly, there was a whistling sound from the bamboo forest, and a four-season bamboo tube swirled in the bamboo forest towards Mieko Kato.

"There is a situation!" Mieko Kato shouted a warning to the team behind her, and at the same time raised her hand sensitively to catch the bamboo tube in her hand.

This is a section of fresh bamboo tubes. Mieko Kato first hid her figure behind a thick bamboo, looked around, and after confirming that there was no enemy approaching, she looked down at the bamboo tube and found that it was empty. Just when she wanted to throw away the bamboo tube, she suddenly found a line of small words carved with a knife on the outside of the bamboo tube: Bamboo Forest Danger.

"Cheer up, let's get through!" Regardless of whether this bamboo tube appears or not, Mieko Kato does not dare to slack off on the gloomy bamboo forest in front of her.

Hearing Mieko Kato's warning, the one hundred and fifty samurai and ninjas around the ox cart quickly clenched their weapons and drove the ox cart forward.

"Hum, hum, hum ......" As soon as the escort team of the Japanese people reached the middle of the bamboo forest, they heard a terrible sound from the surrounding bamboo forest. Before the group could figure out what was going on, they saw countless sharpened bamboo spears roaring rapidly from all directions.

After all, this group of Japanese people is a carefully selected capable personnel, and when they saw bamboo guns attacking from mid-air, they immediately used the weapons in their hands to avoid them.

However, one of the bamboo spears was too dense, and the other came from different directions, and some of the Japanese warriors at the scene were still not spared, and they were stabbed in different parts of the body by sharp bamboo spears one by one. Those who were stabbed in the vital point fell to the ground and died on the spot; If you are not stabbed, you grit your teeth and pull out the bamboo spear that was pierced into your body. But this pull, but all the Japanese people at the scene were scared, only to see the warriors pull out the bamboo spears from their bodies, but found that a poisonous snake has been pierced into the body with the bamboo spear pierced into the body, leaving only a section of the tail exposed outside the body.

"Ahhh Seeing the poisonous snake burrowing into the body, the injured samurai were all shocked, and they threw away the katana in their hands, grabbed the snake's tail with both hands, and pulled it out hard, trying to pull out the poisonous snake that entered the body.

The scales of the snake's body are arranged from front to back, and it is impossible to pull the snake out smoothly by pulling the tail outward. For a while, the scene was chaotic, and the neat formation was suddenly chaotic.

"Stay in formation and protect the two princes!" Seeing the chaos at the scene, Mieko Kato shouted and scolded.

But as soon as Mieko Kato's words fell, another terrible sound quickly came from far and near, similar to the crow's "quack, quack".

Mieko Kato looked around and was horrified.

After a while, I saw dozens of ferocious snake vultures flying from among the branches and leaves of the bamboo forest, and they deftly bypassed the bamboo joints and pounced on the Japanese warriors who had been drilled by poisonous snakes.

This snake vulture feeds on snakes as its staple food and is known as the natural enemy of snakes. The wounded samurai were only concerned about pulling the vipers outward, and they thought that a snake vulture with sharp claws had rushed in front of them.

The snake vultures found their targets, spreading their claws and grabbing at the samurai.

The poor warriors had not yet pulled out the poisonous snake from their bodies, but they were attacked by the vulture's claws.

The samurai, who had been scratched by the snake vulture, fell to the ground in an instant, and died of exhaustion.

One by one, the snake vulture saw that the captured man fell to the ground and stood still

Ke used his hard hooked beak to pull the viper out of the samurai's body and swallow it. Then rush to another target again.

After a slight adjustment, the samurai and ninja of the Japanese Kingdom in the bamboo forest quickly recovered and swung their weapons to slash at the snake vultures that were approaching them.

For a while, in the bamboo forest, the snake vulture flew up and down, and the cold light of the blade flickered. The screams of the slashed vultures and the exclamations of the Japanese people who were scratched by the vultures were terrifying.

The samurai of the Wa Kingdom were much less agile than the Ninja of the Wa Kingdom, and although they fought hard to defend themselves, many of them were scratched by the snake vultures. All the Japanese people who were scratched by the sharp claws of the snake vulture immediately fell to the ground and died.

"Snake vultures have venomous claws. Don't let them catch! Mieko Kato shouted as she judged that the vulture's claws were poisonous during the battle.

Hearing Mieko Kato's warning, the samurai and ninjas at the scene immediately cheered up, and they made full use of all objects in the bamboo forest as a cover, trying not to let the snake vulture catch them.

The dozens of ninjas led by Mieko Kato were even more flickering, their bodies agile, and while dodging the claws of the snake vulture again and again, they lost no time in slashing the snake vulture that caught them again and again.

"Quack, quack, quack!" Seeing that more than half of the snake vultures at the scene were killed and injured, the largest snake vulture suddenly flew to the top of a tall Xiangfei bamboo and let out three loud calls.

Hearing the cry, the snake vulture that was frantically attacking in the bamboo forest immediately stopped attacking and spread its wings and flew towards the snake vulture that made a cry.

Dozens of snake vultures landed on the bamboo branch of the Xiangfei bamboo where the snake vulture that made the cry was located.

"Throw shuriken and kill them all!" Mieko Kato seized the moment and issued an order to the ninjas around her.

But before the ninjas could touch the shuriken on their bodies, they heard the sound of "buzz-buzz-buzz-" again. Dense bamboo spears were once again fired from all sides. This time, the dense bamboo spears were clearly aimed at the two Korean princes.

Several ninjas guarding the ox cart could not dodge such a dense concentration of bamboo guns, and they were shot and fell to the ground.

The wooden carport of the ox cart was instantly filled with dense bamboo spears. Dozens of poisonous snakes crawled out of the bamboo spears and crawled through the cracks in the wooden shed.

"Ahh The two princes in the carport were terrified when they saw several poisonous snakes crawling in from outside. The two of them kicked the carport door with their feet, jumped out of the carport desperately, and fell to the ground.

On the ground, there are also all kinds of poisonous snakes. The two princes were so frightened that they stood still, not daring to move.

"Protect the Prince!" Mieko Kato shouted, and led dozens of ninjas to rush over with swords, hacking the poisonous snakes on the ground and in the car to death one by one.

While everyone was busy rescuing the two princes, the group of snake vultures in the tree, led by the huge snake vulture, once again attacked in the direction of the prince.

On the one hand, the two princes had to protect themselves from poisonous snakes, and on the other hand, they had to deal with the attacks of snakes and vultures from the air. For a time, dozens of samurai and a dozen ninjas were scratched and killed by snake vultures.

"Array!" Seeing that the situation was critical, Mieko Kato shouted and raised her knife to stand firm.

When the ninjas around heard the order, they immediately moved their bodies and formed a formation similar to a gossip map around Mieko Kato, surrounding the two princes in the middle of the formation.

The ninjas standing in the formation all held their ninja swords aloft and used the ninja cloth to form a protective barrier to hide the killing machine.

"Deal with them with shuriken!" Mieko Kato commanded in a low voice.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......" With an order from Mieko Kato, a series of ninja shurikens were issued from within the knife formation, shooting towards the snake vulture attack group in the air.

With a scream from the air, one by one the snake vultures with swords fell to the ground. The remaining dozen or so snake vultures braved a dense array of ninja shurikens to launch a final attack on their targets in the forest.
