In June, it's already a hot summer day in Japan.

Near Kyoto, war raged.

Yoshida Shoin's army has reached Kyoto and has launched a general attack. For a time, the armies of the reformists and the shogunate were at war, and you came and went, and both sides had their own casualties.

In the barracks, Yoshida Shoin looked at the map in the big tent and said in a deep voice: "At present, we have arrived in Kyoto, but the army of the shogunate is also gathered here, and the strength of the resistance is too strong, and it is very difficult to capture Kyoto!" ”

Ito Hirobumi said, "Teacher, the disciple is willing to go to supervise the battle in person. ”

Yoshida Shoin shook his head lightly and said, "Don't worry, your senior brothers Takasugi Shinsaku and Inoue Shin are both in front of the command, and I am relieved to have them." Now, what we need to do is to come up with a way to defeat the shogunate as soon as possible, enter Kyoto, and then preside over the national government and realize the revival of Japan. Time is of the essence, and now that there is a shortage of food, there is no time to spend it. ”

"Report!!"

The tent door curtain was rolled up, and a soldier ran in.

Yoshida Shoin asked, "What happened?" ”

The soldier said in a low tone, "My lord, Takasugi-kun is dead!" ”

Yoshida Shoin exclaimed, took two steps back, and turned pale. Among his disciples, Takasugi Shinsaku was a very assertive person with unlimited, unlimited, and now he was killed in battle, which made Yoshida Shoin feel extremely sad. He looked at the soldier and asked in a deep voice, "What the hell is going on?" ”

The soldier said sadly: "Lord Hui, our weapons were purchased from the hands of Li Zhen, the king of Zhennan of the Great Qing Kingdom, but the weapons and firepower of the shogunate are also very strong, and they are not inferior to us in the slightest. When Takasugi-kun was charging with a large army, a grenade fell, and it landed right next to Takasugi-kun, and Takasugi-kun was killed. The army has suffered setbacks one after another, and the situation is not good! ”

Yoshida Shoin stabilized his mind and said, "Go down, I know!" ”

The soldier turned to leave, and Ito Hirobumi said, "Teacher, Takasugi-kun sacrificed for the sake of the country and died for the sake of righteousness. Before that, Takasugi-kun was ready to die, and so did we. For the sake of the country, he will not hesitate to pay for his life. Teacher, we must lift our spirits and take Kyoto as soon as possible, so that Takasugi-kun will not die in vain. ”

Yoshida Shoin took a deep breath and said, "Well said, let's cheer up!" He forcibly cheered up, but Takasugi Shinsaku's death still stimulated Yoshida Shoin, and his mind was a little dazed and he couldn't concentrate on doing things.

"Report!"

It didn't take long for another soldier to walk in.

The soldier grimaced and said, "My lord, Your Excellency Inoue Shin is dead!" ”

"Ah!!h

Yoshida Songyin exclaimed, and took three steps back in succession, his body staggered, his face was cloudy, and after being silent for a long time, Yoshida Songyin opened his mouth and squirted out a mouthful of blood, rolled his eyes, and passed out.

Just imagine, two of the most powerful disciples died one after another, and no one could afford it.

Yoshida Shoin was hit hard and felt extremely uncomfortable.

Ito Hirobumi was also very sad, but he still supported Yoshida Shoin, helped Yoshida Shoin to the bed and put it away, and then asked, "How did Senior Brother Inoue pass away?" ”

The soldier said, "In order to encourage the soldiers, Lord Inoue personally led the soldiers to charge. While charging, Her Excellency Inoue was shot in the head by a bullet and died instantly. ”

Hirobumi Ito said, "Got it, let's go down!" ”

The soldier did not leave, and said helplessly: "Lord Ito, there is no commander in front now, and the soldiers have been defeated and retreated. If we continue to fight, the situation will be even more difficult! ”

After hearing this, Ito Hirofumi said in a deep voice: "If you retreat, everything will be done in vain, and the efforts of several senior brothers will be in vain. No, you must not retreat. After a pause, Ito Hirobumi called two soldiers to take care of Yoshida Shoin who had fainted, and then left the camp with the soldiers and took the initiative to go to the front line to lead the troops.

……

As the commander of the three armies, Tokugawa Ieshige sat in the big tent of the Chinese army, looked at Miyamoto Yoshihiko, and said with a smile: "Miyamoto-kun, this battle depends on the weapons you transported, otherwise we may not be able to resist the army of the traitors of Yoshida Shoin!" ”

Yoshihiko Miyamoto said humbly: "The general has an overreputation, even if you don't have this batch of weapons, your army can win." After a pause, Miyamoto Yoshihiko said: "It is the credit of Miyamoto Taijian to be able to bring back this batch of weapons. He opened up a channel in Guangzhou and privately purchased weapons manufactured by the Great Qing State Ordnance Factory, which was done without Li Zhen, and Li Zhen did not know about it until now. That's why our weapons are so powerful. ”

"Good, good!"

Tokugawa Ieshige praised, "If you do a good job, you should do it, and you will grow us invisibly." ”

"Report!"

A soldier walked in with a happy expression on his face.

Tokugawa Ieshige said, "Say! ”

The soldier said happily: "General Huiyu, I killed Takasugi Shinsaku and Inoue Shin, the main generals of Yoshida Shoin's army, and now I have killed Ito Hirobumi, a Deli disciple under Yoshida Shoin, and the opponent's army is beginning to rout. In a few days, we will win. "Ito Hirobumi is really unlucky, just led the army into battle, and before he could charge, he was shot in the head by a soldier in the shogunate army, and went directly to see Lord Yama.

Tokugawa Ieshige said in a deep voice: "Very good, launch an attack and take Yoshida Shoin as soon as possible." ”

"Yes!"

When the soldier received the order, he immediately turned and left.

Yoshihiko Miyamoto congratulated: "Congratulations to the general, this battle will be a complete victory." Miyamoto Taijian had been sitting next to him, and after he got the news, he nodded slightly at Miyamoto Yoshihiko, and also got up and left the big tent.

Tokugawa Ieshige had a happy expression on his face and said, "This battle is all up to Miyamoto-kun's support. When the rebellion is completely quelled, I will talk about the reward for meritorious deeds, and Miyamoto-kun has made great contributions! ”

Yoshihiko Miyamoto expressed his gratitude again and again, but a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

……

On the battlefield, the situation has collapsed again, and the army under Yoshida Shoin is still struggling to hold on. In the big tent of the Chinese army, after Yoshida Shoin woke up, he saw that Ito Hirobumi was not around, and immediately shouted a few times. When two soldiers arrived, Yoshida Shoin immediately asked, "What about Ito?" Where did the people go? ”

The soldier said truthfully: "Yoshida-sama, Ito-sama has gone to the front line to command the battle. ”

Yoshida Shoin's brows furrowed, and a bad premonition rose in his heart. He has already sacrificed two disciples, and now that he has another disciple to command the battle, what will be the result?

Report!!

When Yoshida Shoin was worried, a soldier ran in and said loudly, "Lord Huiyu, Ito-sama led the army into battle and died again. The shogunate's army has launched an onslaught, and we can't stop it. ”

Yoshida Shoin was struck by lightning, and his body shrank suddenly.

At this moment, Yoshida Shoin really felt hopeless.

But as soon as he thought of his disciple dying so innocently, he thought that he couldn't let his disciple die in vain. Yoshida Shoin thought of Li Zhen in the rear and shouted: "Quick, notify the king of Zhennan of the Great Qing Kingdom and ask him to send troops to help." With Li Zhen's help, we will definitely be able to win, and we will definitely be able to defeat the shogunate and take revenge. ”

Yoshida Shoin gave the order, and ordered the soldiers to hold on, waiting for Li Zhen to come to the rescue.
