After Dongfang Bufu led the special combat team away, Huang Xu convened Li Hongzhang and others to discuss some specific arrangements for the siege.

And this time, because Li Xiucheng was injured, Huang Xu did not take the risk of arranging for him to lead the Tenth Army to attack the city, but decided to personally lead the army to attack the city.

Huang Xu swore to Kobe City this time.

Originally, even if Li Xiucheng didn't go up, it would not be Huang Xu's turn to lead the crowd to attack the city, but he was the emperor, Chrysostom had been opened, and everyone present also knew that he had made up his mind, and knew that it was useless to say more, so everyone no longer objected and obeyed the order.

After determining the relevant details of the siege, Huang Xu set the siege time in a week, and he decided to do so because, first, the army can get enough rest, so that the siege can achieve twice the result with half the effort, and second, Dongfang Bufu and others have enough time to deploy in Kobe City.

And so the order began.

So, they took the time to rest, to prepare for battle, and then waited for the siege to come a week later.

And everyone, including Huang Xu, was very busy, busy preparing for the siege of the city, of course, Dongfang Bufu and Li Shixian were not idle.

After the special operations detachment led by them infiltrated the city, they found a place to settle down, and then, after repeated discussions with Li Shixian, Dongfang Bufu and Li Shixian finally determined the next action plan of the special operations team.

They divided the special operations team into two teams.

A team, led by Li Shixian, ambushed around the city gate in advance. According to the actual situation, be ready to cooperate with the army to seize the city at any time.

The other team was led by Dongfang Bufu, secretly lurking outside Sakurako's general's mansion, intending to wait for the opportunity to move and capture Sakura, so as to complete the injury handed over by Huang Xu, and when the task of capturing Sakura was completed, Dongfang Bufu would lead his team to join Li Shixian's team to welcome the army into the city.

And among them, Huang Xu's place made Dongfang not confused to capture the cherry blossoms. There are two reasons for this. First, for the sake of her safety, this time, the Taiping army will inevitably break the city, and after the city. The secret must be that the jade is burned. In the midst of the chaos. No one can guarantee that they will be alive in the end, so let's get Sakurako out first. It's a little safer, and the second reason is that taking Sakura is equivalent to cutting off the head of the Japanese army, the snake can't do it without a head, the bird doesn't fly without a head, if there is no Sakura, the Japanese army in Kobe City is equivalent to a snake bird with a broken head, a headless fly, and can only be slaughtered by the Taiping army.

In the planning of the whole thing, Huang Xu can be said to be thoughtful, but for the Japanese, his trick is definitely ruthless enough.

Anyway, in the final analysis, this last golden key is still in the hands of Dongfang Bufu, it depends on what he does, if he can capture Sakura's hand, he will be able to solve it easily, if he can't capture it, then it's another matter.

Of course, it is very important that the east is not confused, but the siege side is also very important, and if you want to attack the city, you have to break through the city gate, so the gains and losses of the city gate are very important, and since this is the case, it is necessary to find out some of the situation of the Kobe city gate.

As mentioned earlier, Kobe Castle is located near mountains and rivers, so its geographical location is very special, with only one gate in front and only one gate in the back.

In other words, the Taiping army could only attack from the front gate, and if the Japanese army was defeated, they could only escape from the back gate.

One road, two gates, after a battle, it depends on which gate to take.

And the people led by Li Shixian were all in place, and they were lying in ambush around this front door, patiently waiting for the opportunity.

Time passed minute by minute, both China and Japan were silently preparing, preparing for the upcoming life-and-death battle, and the only thing that the Japanese army did not expect was that there was already a special combat team of the Taiping Army lurking in Kobe City.

And the secret chess of the special combat team is very likely to affect the final battle, of course, this is a later story.

And the Taiping army is preparing, and the Japanese army is also preparing.

On the side of the Japanese army, the Japanese general Sakurako knew the importance of this battle, so for several days, she lived in the barracks, eating and living with those Japanese soldiers, so as to discuss defensive strategies.

And Sakurako's presence in the barracks is probably something that Dongfang Bufu, who is guarding at the gate of General Sakurako's mansion, did not expect.

It can be seen that if you want to capture Sakura, Dongfang is not confused and can no longer wait for the rabbit.

And after a few days of hibernation, the news of Sakurako's presence in the military camp finally reached the ears of Dongfang Bufu, who was outside the General's Mansion.

Hearing this news, Dongfang Bufu was a little anxious.

Because Huang Xu had already heard the news that the Taiping army would attack the city in a week, there was not much time left for Dongfang Bufu, and he had to catch Sakura before the army attacked the city.

And once the city is broken, this Sakura will either flee with the brigade, or burn the jade with the Japanese army, and no matter which one, it will not be possible for Dongfang to complete the task assigned by Huang Xu.

Therefore, capturing Sakurako before breaking the city has become the only choice for Dongfang Bufu.

However, this Sakurako has been hiding in the military camp and does not live in the mansion, which makes it difficult for Dongfang to be confused, and it also adds a lot of difficulties to his action of taking people.

Dongfang is not confused, it is not that he did not want to go to the barracks to arrest people, but he also knows that if he dares to break into the barracks to arrest people like this, the difficulty can be imagined, even if he is caught, he may not be able to bring people out.

Therefore, there is no good way for the East to be confused for a while.

However, time is still ticking.

On the morning of the sixth day, Dongfang Bufu really couldn't help it, and he decided to go to the barracks to give it a try.

However, it is easy to go to the barracks, but there are still a lot of constraints to implement the action, just like saying that if the East is not confused, it will not be able to take so many people to go there in a mighty way, because, if there are more people, it will become more crowded, and things will be complicated, but it will make them tie their hands and feet, and it is not very convenient to guide them to do things, and besides, the barracks are so big, if there is no familiar person to lead the way, then looking for someone in it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

Therefore, Dongfang Bufu finally decided to go alone, one comes. It can reduce the risk of being discovered, and secondly, it is convenient for him to adapt to the situation, and if he wants to make a decision or do something halfway, he doesn't have to think too much, just take care of himself.

So, Dongfang Bufu prepared to break into the military camp single-handedly and capture Sakurako.

And the special combat soldiers who followed him were sent by him to Li Shixian's side, and cooperated with Li Shixian to break the city with the siege army.

And Dongfang Bufu, after calculating the time and making a little preparation, headed towards the barracks.

It was the early morning of the seventh day. Other words. After dawn, Huang Xu was about to lead a large army to attack the city.

Dongfang is not confused, and he must hurry.

And the barracks are not far from the General's Mansion, and Dongfang Bufu sneaked into the barracks without much trouble.

He quietly hid behind a military tent, carefully observing every move in the barracks. By this time it was late at night. It was quiet in the military tent. Most of the Japanese troops were already asleep, and only a few groups of Japanese soldiers on night duty patrolled everywhere.

Dongfang Bufu observed for a long time, but he didn't figure out a clue. Because, at a glance, the tents in this camp are all the same, and if he goes blindly to look for them, it will be like a blind man touching an elephant.

He must find a way to find the location of the handsome tent where Sakurako lives, otherwise, let alone looking for someone, he may even get lost.

So, Huang Xu thought about it and decided to find someone to ask first, at least to find out where this Sakura's handsome account is.

Then, seeing an opportunity, he took a Japanese soldier on duty at night, asked from him where Sakurako's tent was, then killed the Japanese soldier, changed into his clothes, and then went to the place that the Japanese soldier pointed to.

After a few turns, or how many tents he had passed, he finally found a large golden tent in the middle of many tents.

This tent is huge, as big as a dozen ordinary tents, the curtain is golden, and the eaves are embroidered with lifelike red roses.

Needless to say, at a glance, it is clear that this is a woman's big tent.

And since it is a woman's big tent, and it is a handsome tent, then there will be no one else living in this tent except Sakurako.

Dongfang is not confused when he sees this, and he knows that he has found the right direction.

He observed the situation around the tent again, found out the pattern of the patrol, and then quietly approached the tent, spotted the cat on the edge of the tent, and then made a small hole in the tent, and secretly looked into the tent.

At this time, although it was early in the morning, the big tent was still brightly lit, and the people in the tent did not rest, but still sat on the desk and worked hard to write.

It's really diligent.

And Dongfang Bufu looked at the person in the tent, and he saw a woman, a beautiful woman, young, with very white skin, especially her big eyes, which were particularly eye-catching.

She is the Japanese princess Sakurako.

Seeing this, Dongfang Bufu couldn't help but feel excited, looking for her thousands of times in the crowd, and suddenly looked back, but the person was in the dim light.

It's really better to be in time than to be in a hurry, this good thing really made Dongfang not confused.

Okay, okay, take the cherry blossoms, then his task will be completed, Dongfang is not confused.

So, he steadied his feelings a little, and gently touched the tent.

After entering the tent, he mobilized his internal force and drifted like a gust of wind to the place where the cherry blossom was.

However, to Dongfang Bufu's surprise, things were surprisingly smooth.

It stands to reason that in terms of Sakura's martial arts cultivation, after Dongfang Bufu came in, Sakurako should have felt something, but until Dongfang Bufu walked behind her, she didn't find that someone was ready to disadvantage her.

This made Dongfang not confused very strange, but he didn't think deeply.

"Haha, Princess Sakurako, it's been a long time, I am ordered by my emperor to ask the princess to come with me." Dongfang Bufu stood still behind Sakurako, and suddenly said loudly.

And as he spoke, he clicked on the six big holes on Sakurako's body with lightning speed.

Sakurako immediately couldn't move.

Dongfang is not confused, so he will succeed.

"Who are you, you, how did you get in?" Sakurako said in horror.

Sakura turned pale, and her eyes showed deep fear.

"Well, I'm known as Dongfang Bufu, and I'm the brother of the current emperor of the Chinese Empire, as for how I got in, the mountain people have their own tricks," Dongfang Bufu replied patiently.

People are in good spirits when they are happy, and of course, from this, their temper will be much better. And when you have a good temper, you will become patient, and it is normal to tolerate other people's things and others.

"You, what do you want to do?" Sakurako said in a trembling voice.

Although she couldn't move, her body was visibly trembling.

It can be seen from this that she is really scared in her heart.

"Come with me." Dongfang is not confused.

"Well, then, you're not going to kill me, are you?" The fear in Sakurako's eyes was even worse.

"I don't know, that's not my business, I'm only responsible for inviting you, and the rest is not my responsibility." Dongfang shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

"Please, don't kill me, kill me." Sakurako almost burst into tears.

It seems that she is not afraid at all, but terribly afraid.

No, Sakurako would be such a pustule, completely different from the person he saw a few days ago, Dongfang didn't think about it.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me..."Sakurako begged with a trembling voice.

Her behavior made Dongfang Bufu feel more and more wrong.

"Hey, stop yelling, if you yell, I might kill you." Dongfang was upset by the noise and shouted.

She felt that the person in front of her was not Sakurako, but someone else.

"I'm not a princess, I'm not a princess, please, let me go." That Sakurako said suddenly.

That Sakurako's eyes were full of pleading, if it weren't for the fact that the acupuncture path was sealed, she might have knelt down to the east and begged for mercy.

She was afraid of death, and not in general.

However, what she meant by not being a princess, Dongfang Bufu was a little confused.

Don't...? Dongfang Bufu thought of a possibility, and couldn't help but be surprised in his heart.

Perhaps only this possibility can explain this strange phenomenon. (To be continued......)
