Chapter 437. Killer
The smoke of Kyoto Castle had not yet burned out, and the Great Wall of the Wakoku Kingdom on the shores of Lake Biwa was again billowing black smoke, and for the first time, this fortification, which resembled the Berlin Wall, was breached.
In the Chengguan building, the viscous blood stream flowed downward, and even the bonfires for heating were drowned, and the corpses of the waves were piled up in a pile, and the city gate below was opened, and in the door hole, the eastern army carrying the spear barrel and pushing the artillery, and the iron cannon was rushing forward like mercury.
Mao Jue had no last resort, but after all, he didn't count outside his territory, and the troops brought by Tokugawa Iemitsu this time were Toyotomi Matsumaru's biggest killer feature.
…………
There is no love in the world for no reason, and it's good to be the boss yourself, especially after winning the Edo Defense War three years ago, the decline of the shogunate seems to have stopped all of a sudden, and the Tokugawa family hasn't been kicked by a donkey, so why is he suddenly willing to pay a full half of the annual income tax to be a little brother?
In the words of a Jackson dance song whose name I don't know, it's all forced! It's forced!
Toyotomi Kunimatsumaru regarded Cheng Zhu Lixue as a cult and developed it for more than four years, even if he favored the students, once it became a climate, Yuan Chonghuan would not turn a blind eye. The reason why Inspector Yuan, who was stationed in the Wa Kingdom, has been forbearing, and even a little faintly ignoring, is really in Kyoto, Kunimatsumaru's stall is too small, and the upper-class elite route he took only pulled the children of the wealthy families into the church, and there was a chaos in Kyoto, and the major battle of Kunimatsumaru to break into the palace and seize the emperor only launched more than 4,000 ronins, children of the family, and this rabble naturally could not arouse Yuan Chonghuan's interest.
But he has been lying on the salary for more than four years, as a student of Yuan Chonghuan, and half of Mao Jue's students, it is impossible for Kunimatsumaru to make a small fuss, he has been engaged in a revolutionary export strategy like Cuba, the east is blooming and the west is fragrant, Kyoto is considered a bushido cultivation school, and this cultivated physicist was directly transported to the east by him bypassing the Great Wall of the Japanese Kingdom, and went there to preach and develop.
Just like the White Lotus Sect, it flickered from the bottom, and finally spread like a water hyacinth across the water.
Whenever there are troubled times, cults are rampant, there are always people who bewitch the masses to gather and roar on one side, and there are always countless people who follow them in a drowsy state like a grasshopper shaking a tree, even if they use their flesh and blood to fill the ditch and block the arrows, for no other reason, the people in distress and despair need such a spiritual sustenance!
Regardless of whether this sustenance is a true god or a true demon, as long as it can bring hope, it can attract countless foolish people like the last straw. And Dongguo, at this time, is a perfect hotbed for the spread of cults.
The rampant Mao Jue brought too much pressure to the shogunate, and it was almost a must-win Osaka triad, and the 300,000 shogunate army was put together to go to the 100,000 Western Army, Tokugawa Iemitsu thought about how to write a military biography, but the military biography was not in vain, and it was captured by Mao Jue and released as a merit of the Toyotomi family, and the outside of Osaka City became a slaughterhouse, full of the corpses of the descendants of the samurai of the Eastern Kingdom.
Moreover, after the establishment of the Tokugawa shogunate, the sea power was in decline, and after the completion of the Great Wall of the Japanese Kingdom, the offensive road on the road was blocked, and the eastern country was not as vast as the Mongolian steppe, so it could rely on the vast strategic space for detours, and the only way for the farming people to deal with this situation was to build a fortress and wear turtle shells.
However, the reinforced concrete casting method and the traditional earth and stone stacking casting method of the Japanese kingdom regardless of efficiency or cost, it is really not a starting line, Mao Jue only took a few months, 50,000 or 60,000 people to complete the big project of cutting the Japanese kingdom in half, spending 270,000 stones of grain, 700,000 taels of silver, but along the road of the western attack to build the city fortress, but the shogunate was repaired for four years, invested hundreds of thousands of people, millions of stone food and funds, until now it has not been completed, the huge project is narrow for the east country with many people, It was a literal disaster.
Even on the fertile Kanto Plain, the Japanese people had to estimate how much fat they could grow when they planted radishes, and then the radish skins were left to eat by themselves, and the radish cores were pickled and handed over as taxes.
There is no hope in sight!
In this case, the Kunimatsumaru Bushido cult with Cheng Zhu Lixue as the core is simply like a fish in water. The root of all suffering is explained here in Kunimatsumaru, and the etiquette of Confucius is broken! The following grams are on! Those rebellious ministers and thieves have stolen the power of the emperor and pressed the cruelty on the heads of the people of the world!
As long as the Tokugawa shogunate and the Toyotomi Shogunate are defeated together, the emperor is returned to power, and the kingdom of God is brought to earth, all good things can come back, and the entire Wa kingdom can be restored to the ancient era of male farming and female weaving, stable and rich, everyone can eat enough, wear warm clothes, no need to go to war again, no need to work desperately to cast the city, everyone can live a very beautiful and rich life.
In front of the people who are unclothed and hungry all day long, this is simply a paradise scene, who can not follow? Just like the White Lotus Sect, Toyotomi Kunimatsumaru's power swelled out like a geometric multiple.
Since last year, when Inaba Masakatsu was in charge of the Togae River, there had already been several peasant wars in the Eastern Kingdom, from the Tokugawa domain to the Sendai domain, and the Ichijo sect, which had changed color during the Warring States period, was restless again, and I am afraid that a larger scale of Ichijo would also break out.
Originally, it was already too strong to deal with a Toyotomi family, but in a few years, under his rule, he was pounced into a huge powder keg by Kunimatsumaru, and he couldn't withstand this kind of political pressure, and the Tokugawa family, who was good at forbearance, changed his position and position, and it didn't seem so difficult!
However, even Tokugawa Iemitsu did not expect that he and the army of the Eastern Daimyo would be infiltrated to such a point, I am afraid that if he defected to Makoto for two or three years late, Kunimatsumaru's power could completely grow into a climate in the Eastern Kingdom, and there would be a Li Dai Taozhuang, and then the Tokugawa Shogunate would be doomed, not to mention, the Dongjiang would also usher in an unprecedented enemy!
Fortunately, Tokugawa Iemitsu was instigated! didn't give Kunimatsumaru this time to grow, and the plants that were boosted by the seedlings were too immature to withstand the baptism of the storm after all!
At 10 o'clock in the morning, more than 90,000 troops of the Eastern Kingdom were already approaching the outside of Kyoto, and the samurai of the northern kingdom of the Sendai Domain were deployed as the vanguard of the Hanamano on the outskirts of Kyoto, 40,000 troops of the Shogunate on the Kanto Plain were used as the middle army, the troops of the Mito Domain and the Kurokawa Domain were the left wing, and more than a dozen small feudal domains such as the Ashikaga Domain and the Takaoka Domain were the right wing.
However, before the attack, this army had already encountered a head-on attack, just outside the west gate of Kyoto, the Yoshishu Corps under Mao Jue and the twenty regiments attached to it had already set up a defensive position, and what was more striking than the cannon was the Tokugawa Iemitsu brought the Eastern Hundred Family Emblem Dasu.
In the Battle of Sekigahara that year, the biggest mistake of the Western Army Ishida Mitsunari was that he did not lend Toyotomi Hideyoshi's symbol from Osaka, the golden gourd horse seal, in this era, the samurai could not confront the suzerain, once the golden gourd horse seal appeared on the battlefield, the vanguard of the Eastern Army, Fukushima Masanori, Fujido Takatora, Kato Masaaki, Kuroda Nagamasa and other Toyotomi Hideyoshi's old subordinates had to immediately give a salute and withdraw from the war, and Ishida Mitsunari faced only the power of the Tokugawa family may really be able to change history.
However, what Ishida Sancheng didn't do, Mao Jue did it this time, seeing his own family badge standing in front of him in the Western Army's military formation, a large group of retainers who were infiltrated or not infiltrated, and who were coerced suddenly panicked! Until now, he didn't know that he had been coerced, and the general of the Date family, Tamura Munera, looked at the Fujiwara Bamboo Sparrow pattern of the Sendai Domain opposite, and galloped back anxiously on a pony, and roared angrily at Toyotomi Kunimatsumaru surrounded by a few Tokugawa family retainers who had infiltrated the Tobayashi Rigaku.
"Why! Why did the head of the family and the general appear in the military formation of the Western Kingdom! Didn't you say that you Donglin Physicists would open the castle gates and greet the shogun Kamirakitto Kyoto and seize the emperor? Where is the Emperor now? ”
These words also made the retainers also look at him with concern, but in the fiery eyes of the Hokuriku general, it was a real fire that answered him.
Dongjiang and Westerners have close contacts, although they are not mixed with Mao Jue's revolver, but exquisite Western pistols, Kunimatsumaru is still not lacking, in the disbelief eyes of a group of Eastern ministers, the defenseless Tamura Zongliang has an extra blood hole in his head, and his unbelievable expression remains on his face, and he falls off the horse weakly.
Compared to yesterday, Kunimatsumaru's face was completely devoid of the vitality of forging ahead, replaced by a complete gloom of death, that look, let this heavenly lord of Fuso be like a judge in hell, exuding a chill all over his body, his eyes swept over the ministers of the Eastern Kingdom like a knife, and in the trembling of those people, Kunimatsumaru immediately tilted his head to a retainer of the Sendai clan beside him.
"Sokoma Masanobu, you go and lead Team Date!"
Even if they knew the plan, it was too late, and a large number of soldiers who believed in Kyoto's science were pressed with iron cannons, and those ministers of the Eastern Kingdom entered the battlefield with difficulty.
He also rushed to the front in person, facing those ignorant samurai, Toyotomi Kuni Matsumaru was like Alexander the Great in the movie, galloping in front of the military town on horseback, and roaring loudly at the same time.
"Samurai! Amaterasu people! The Dongjiang demons incarnated by the Yaki Snake are right in front of you, they have evilly imprisoned the emperor, seized the power of the world, and pressed the tyranny on your heads, as long as you defeat them and save the emperor! Peace will come! No more desperate work on the battlefield and no more paying such heavy taxes! No longer have to approve the military appearance and pay for military service! No more!"
Just like King Chuang came and didn't pay food, such a slogan was too inflammatory in the Eastern Army, which was already completely disgusted with war! The spears in the front rows were even excitedly raised.
However, at this time, the cheers suddenly stopped abruptly.
On the same flag, the imperial symbol of the sixteen-petal golden chrysanthemum swaggered in front of the black three-leaf sunflower pattern of the Tokugawa family, and the sixteen-carried sedan chair carried by the priest maid, in the veil on all sides, a hazy girl figure appeared in the sight of the Eastern Army in a trance, and kept fighting for the emperor, but the emperor was on the opposite side of him, looking at the logo of the imperial family, even the most fanatical ashigaru team was stunned.
And among them, the biggest blow was Toyotomi Kunimatsumaru, the painful memory of last night once again surfaced in front of him, he even turned over and dismounted, his face was twisted and he fell to the ground suddenly, his fist smashed on the ground and was dripping with blood.
