After several successive salvos, they found that there was no one on the gun position, and the soldiers of the Zhentai Army stepped forward cautiously. Many soldiers passed by Tatsujiro Uezaki, and Tatsujiro Uezaki was unaware of it, and it was not until Chief Sakuma Zomata came to his side and patted him on the shoulder that he came to his senses.

The soldiers of the Zhentai Army under the castle tower came to the gun position, and at this moment, a ninja suddenly stood up from among the corpses, he raised the long knife in his hand that had been broken, and slashed the head of the nearest Zhentai Army soldier.

Uesaki Tatsujiro looked at the bloody ninja with bloody eyes like a ghost, and was startled, and the Zhentai soldiers who had just come to the gun position were also stunned by this scene, until the ninja cut off the head of a Zhentai soldier with another knife, and the Zhentai soldiers howled like a pot, holding a rifle with a bayonet and stabbing at the ninja.

Uezaki Tatsujiro saw countless bayonets stabbing the ninja's body from different directions, front, back, left and right, blood scattered in all directions, but the ninja still did not fall, he clutched a bayonet that had been stabbed into his stomach, and stabbed the broken knife in his hand into the chest of a Zhentai soldier with all his might, and then staggered down.

The gunfire in all directions gradually became scattered, and finally calmed down again.

The sound of the explosion woke up Miura Wulou and Kawaro Toshira, and when the two of them hurried to the gun position, they saw the soldiers gathered there in a daze, all of them looking at a loss.

Kawaro Toshira forcefully separated the crowd and came to the side of the 120 mm Krupp cannon, at this time the artillery carriage of the cannon had been destroyed, the huge barrel was reclining to the side, and not far away, there were the bodies of four gunners who had been stabbed to death in the chest, of course, because of the chaotic gunfight just now, they all had a few more bullet holes in their bodies.

The three soldiers of the Zhentai Army who died next to the gun emplacements also had obvious knife wounds on their bodies.

Kawaro Toshira understood that they were killed by ninjas, and the damage to the cannon was also caused by ninjas, so he couldn't help but scold fiercely, he stepped forward and stroked the cannon body with his hand, and suddenly saw that there were traces of knife slashing on the cannon body, and he couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Stupid guy!"

Kawaro Liliang checked the gun body again, and found that except for the gun carriage, the gun body was not damaged, and he was a little relieved. He was about to open his mouth to ask, but found that the soldiers were all staring at his feet motionlessly, their eyes were full of fear, and he couldn't help but be very strange, and he couldn't help but move his footsteps, as if he had stepped on something crispy, and made a faint sound.

Only then did Kawaro Toshira notice that there was only the body of the gunner on the gun emplacement, not the body of the ninja.

"Where are the thieves? Ran away? Seeing his subordinates cowering, Chuanlu Liliang was very dissatisfied, and asked loudly.

"Right at your feet, sir." One soldier cautiously replied, "There were four of them, and after they were killed, all of them were ...... When it burned, the corpse turned to ashes at once, and it was impossible to see what it was......"

Hearing the soldier's answer, Kawaro Liliang was taken aback, he quickly looked at his feet, only to realize that what he had just stepped on was a black skull that had been burnt!

"Get the maintenance crew over and fix the cannon right away! It must be fixed before dawn! Miura Wulou ordered in a bit of anger.

"Hello!"

"Wake up all the sleepers! Heighten your vigilance! ”

"Hello!"

Seeing that Miura Wulou had fallen into a state of madness, Kawaro Toshira sighed secretly in his heart.

Now, he no longer has the belief in victory that he had when he first came to Kumamoto.

Just when he was worried and uneasy, gunshots rang out again in the direction of the city, and his heart suddenly hung again.

Kawalu Liliang knew that he was destined to spend a sleepless night tonight.

It's dawn.

Tatsujiro Uezaki, who had only taken turns taking naps in the second half of the night, was awakened by a loud noise, and he jerked himself to his feet, looked into the distance, and was immediately stunned by what he saw.

In the snowy fields in the distance, there are Satsuma samurai and countless flags!

Seeing the sea of countless flags of various colors painted with samurai family crests, Tatsujiro Uezaki somehow felt his blood surge all over his body.

He is a native of Fukushima Prefecture and a samurai family.

The reason why he joined the army at a young age and became a young soldier was to revive the samurai spirit of the Aizu Kamisaki family!

"It's Nanzhou Weng...... No, the thief leader Saigo Yoshinosuke has arrived! Someone pointed to the southwest and shouted, "Go and report to the general!" ”

Tatsujiro Uezaki looked in the direction he was pointing, and in the distance, he saw a huge Satsuma "Cross Maru" banner waving in the wind, and around this banner, the flags of the samurai leaders were gathered like the stars holding the moon!

"Mr. Nanzhou, is it really you......" Tatsujiro Uezaki silently read in his heart.

Although he is not from Satsuma, his heart, like all Satsuma samurai, is full of admiration for Saigo Takamori.

After the total annihilation of the Moss Army in Taiwan, Tatsujiro Uezaki also became a prisoner of the Qianguo people, and was later released by the Qianguo government after the Battle of Moss Bay and returned to Japan.

Like many of the soldiers of the Tsuyoshi Army after returning home, the young Uezaki Tatsujiro was also branded as a "dry detective" and "thief", suffering from white eyes, food and clothing, almost no different from beggars, thanks to Saigo Takamori learning about the miserable situation of the soldiers of the Tsuyomosa Army (many of whom were unemployed Satsuma samurai), and repeatedly wrote to the emperor, which led to the Meiji government issuing an amnesty and changing the situation of these former prisoners.

And it was from then that Tatsujiro Uezaki was able to re-enter the Japanese army.

But what he didn't expect was that in less than three years, he would have to meet his benefactor on the battlefield.

"Fire! Target! Enemy flags! Kawaro Toshira, who had come to the city wall, suddenly drew his command knife, ran to the gun emplacement of a 120-mm cannon, and shouted hoarsely in the direction of the "Cross Maru" banner.

Hearing Kawaro Liliang's order, the gunner hesitated, and the eyes of some of the surrounding Satsuma Zhentai soldiers showed disdain.

Everyone knows that Saigo Takamori can be said to be the benefactor of Kawaro Toshira, if it were not for Saigo Takamori's vigorous promotion back then, Kawaro Toshira, who was born as a low-level samurai, would not have been able to mix with the position of "big police" anyway.

"Bastard! Hurry up and shoot! Seeing that the gunners were hesitating, Kawaro Liliang couldn't help but curse.

The gunners turned the gun carriage, and after the shells were loaded, they began to aim, and as the huge cannon body slowly moved, Uezaki Tatsujiro felt his hands and feet gradually chill.

Only then did he realize how much he did not want his benefactor, Mr. Nanzhou, to die.
