211 Call Ieyasu to come to me!
"Gorou ......"
After a long time, Toyotomi Hideyoshi opened his eyes slightly, and called out to his most trusted retainers in a very weak voice. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Lord!"
Gorou hurriedly shook Toyotomi Hideyoshi's dry hand.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi turned his head with great difficulty, looked at Yodohime, who was frightened and pale, turned his head back again, looked at Goro, and slowly spoke.
"Goro, you're the only person I trust right now, I'll give you a mission, you take a team of reliable samurai, and put ...... Send my wife away, go through the secret passage, send my wife back to Kyoto, give it to Hideji, tell Hideji, let him take over my position, take over everything from me, and become the head of the Toyotomi family, my only request...... It is to save Cha Cha and my child's life! If he can't, I'll ...... I won't let him go! ”
Toyotomi Hideyoshi's face became extremely hideous, not like he was talking in a dream, not only did he startle his retainers, but Yodohime was also startled, thinking that Toyotomi Hideyoshi was talking in a dream.
"Taiko ......"
"My lord! You can still walk now! Let's go! ”
Toyotomi Hideyoshi's weak hand suddenly burst out with tremendous power, squeezing Goro's hand painfully.
"Do you think of me as a Taiko? Do you think of me as a lord? I don't listen to me! Let's go! I, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, have fought all my life, and I have never had a time to retreat! At this time, I have to retreat, and I will never be able to fight back! Even if I fail, I am defeated...... cough cough cough ...... cough cough ......"
Toyotomi Hideyoshi coughed violently, his life was nearing the end.
"Nope! Taiko! It can't be like this! I'm not going to Toyotomi Shuji! He's going to kill me! He's going to kill me! Taiko! Only you can protect me! Only you can! I ......"
Seeing that Yodohime was a little vexatious, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was also anxious, stared at the flustered Gorou tightly, and said, "Goro! You have to take Madame away! Madame has my only blood in her belly, you must send her safely to Kyoto and hand her over to Shuji! Certain! If she's noisy, knock her out! All in all, make sure to send her and the baby in her belly to Kyoto safely! Give it to Shuji! ”
Gorou's face was frightened and hesitant, looking at Toyotomi Hideyoshi for a while, and Yodohime for a while, he was completely confused, and he didn't know what he should do.
"Go ahead...... cough cough cough ...... cough cough cough cough ...... You have to look at ...... Watching me die alive? ”
Toyotomi Hideyoshi held Gorou's hand tightly, and his sharp nails pierced into Goro's flesh, and a trace of pain made Gorou wake up instantly.
"Lord, I'm leaving, what are you going to do?"
"Leave me alone! I'm Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and I've never failed! Don't worry! I'll get out of here safely, and I'll go back to Kyoto to find you, but I'll need a little time, so you'll leave right away! Take Madame with you right away! Let's go! ”
As soon as Toyotomi Hideyoshi's words fell, a cannonball exploded not far from the room, and the sound was like thunder, and the air wave directly blew the door of the room open, and the fire and blood outside could no longer be separated.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi realized that the final hour was coming.
"Let's go!!"
Toyotomi Hideyoshi didn't know where the strength came from, so he actually stood up on his own, pushed Gorou to Yodohime's side, and stared at Gorou viciously.
Goro's eyes widened, and he made a decision as he looked at the blazing flames and looming figures outside, so he knelt down and kowtowed three times to Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
"My lord, when I send my wife back to Kyoto, I will bring troops to support my lord! Please be sure to persevere! Be sure to persevere! Don't give up! If the lord loses, Gorou will commit suicide! Follow the Lord! ”
After speaking, Gorou didn't hesitate any longer, directly picked up the stunned Yodohime, ran to the location of the secret passage that only a few people knew, and disappeared into the sight of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Toyotomi Hideyoshi smiled weakly, turned around, picked up his cane, and then dragged a cushion to the center of the room, facing the door, and sat on the cushion in the most ancient aristocratic posture, quietly waiting for the arrival of the last moment, without fear and worry at all, like an old monk who had settled down.
The remaining more than 2,000 horses could not stop the surprise attack of a large number of elite soldiers of the Tokugawa clan, and under the leadership of Honda Tadakatsu, the Toyotomi army was defeated, and the defense line completely collapsed, and after Honda Tadakatsu stabbed to death a Toyotomi army that was still resisting, he rushed directly to the castle tower, the last base of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and the Tokugawa army behind him also followed their generals closely and rushed to the place where the dream rose.
Rushing into the castle tower, Honda Tadakatsu found Toyotomi Hideyoshi without spending any effort, because Toyotomi Hideyoshi had no intention of hiding at all, he knelt on a cushion, like an old monk who had settled down, quietly, without any movement, as if he was dead, Honda Tadakatsu looked at Toyotomi Hideyoshi suspiciously, did not approach, but several soldiers seemed to be a little impatient to move forward a few steps, and their mouths were still shouting.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi opened his eyes suddenly, his eyes were shining, and the soldiers only felt a huge coercion swept over, they quickly fell silent, the weapons they raised involuntarily put down, and their tall bodies involuntarily stiffened, and even their legs began to tremble.
The coercion cultivated by Toyotomi Hideyoshi for more than ten years in the world can never be changed overnight, even if he fails and is about to perish, it is definitely not something that a few soldiers can provoke.
"Presumptuous!"
With a shout of rage, several soldiers were frightened and retreated, as if they had seen something frightening, Honda Tadakatsu shook his head, stepped forward and threw the soldiers behind fiercely, stuck his big gun on the ground, and knelt down on one knee.
"Taige."
Toyotomi Hideyoshi looked at Tadakatsu Honda, the general whom Oda Nobunaga and he had admired.
"Zhongsheng, you're here."
"Yes, Taige, your subordinates are on the orders of the lord to protect Taige."
"Don't say more beautiful words, I've said and heard these things countless times, I only ask you one thing, you have to answer me honestly."
Honda Tadashi paused: "Taige, excuse me." ”
"Was the North Korean crusade army defeated? Was it the army of the Ming Kingdom that attacked Nagoya before? Toyotomi Shuji and Maeda Toshike are both in Kyoto, right? ”
"Yes, all of them, completely correct, these things, we have known for a long time, only Taige you don't know, even now, your subordinates still want to say that you have been deceived, deceived by those you trust, naturally, their fate is not very good, according to the current situation analysis, they have basically determined that the whole army has been wiped out, and the army you sent to North Korea can no longer come back."
"Is it......" Toyotomi Hideyoshi sighed slightly, shook his head, and had a bitter smile on his face: "I'm old, I'm really old, I can't accept the old anymore, I want my Toyotomi Hideyoshi to be surprised all my life, but in the end, I ended up like this, I only knew everything before I died, and I recognized myself, is this God's punishment for me?" ”
Honda Tadakatsu didn't say a word, lowered his head, and didn't dare to look directly at Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
"Where's Ieyasu?"
"The Lord is on his way."
"Call Ieyasu to come to me, and you all get out, and don't interfere with the affairs between me and Ieyasu!"
"Yes, yes! Exit them all! Those who dare to enter without permission, kill! ”
Honda Tadakatsu waved his hand, and the murderous soldiers behind him had to all retreat to protect the room, Honda Tadakatsu stood up, pulled out the big gun, and exited the house step by step, and then closed the door.
