Just as Li Xiucheng hesitated, the Japanese army's offensive was becoming more and more fierce, and under the suppression of the Japanese army, the morale of the Taiping army was getting lower and lower.

If no decision is made, the Taiping army will really have problems.

Faced with this situation, beads of sweat already appeared on Li Xiucheng's head, to be honest, this decision was really difficult for him.

However, the further it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be to the Taiping army, and it must be decided.

Li Xiu is a decisive person to kill, but because of his arrogance, this time he capsized in the gutter and was planted in the hands of a woman, but his wisdom is still there.

After calming down and thinking about it for a while, Li Xiucheng decided to take the risk and retreat.

After comparing the two, he still felt that retreating was more beneficial to the Taiping army than fighting to the death.

Then, since the decision has been made, let's seize the time to deploy, and the relevant orders have also been transmitted to all parts of the Taiping army.

After receiving the order, the Taiping army began to retreat in an orderly manner according to Li Xiucheng's deployment.

However, one thing that has to be said is that in such an unfavorable situation, it is possible to retreat in an orderly manner, and it is not possible to praise the Taiping army if it is not an elite soldier.

However, as soon as the Taiping army was launched, the Japanese army found out, they knew that the Taiping army was going to withdraw, so the offensive was even more fierce, they just wanted to drag the Taiping army back and make them unable to withdraw.

When Li Xiucheng saw this, he was angry, he scolded Sakura in his heart, thinking that this woman's heart was too bad, and she was as simple as a snake and scorpion.

However, Li Xiucheng forgot that the two sides are now mortal enemies, no matter who conspires against whom. That's all normal, it's nothing.

Of course, this kind of thinking about Li Xiucheng is also understandable, because everyone thinks about problems from their own standpoint, which is not an exaggeration.

In short, the Taiping army still let the Japanese army drag it, and it was impossible to get out for a while.

Do we have to fight to the death? Li Xiucheng thought.

He was extremely reluctant to do so, but the situation was like this. He couldn't choose. So, he re-issued the order to the army and fought to the death.

Since you can't retreat, let's fight.

It can only be so.

And once it is said that the battle is good. It is tantamount to abandoning half-heartedness. The combat effectiveness of the Taiping army also suddenly increased by several knots. can really compete with the Japanese army, and is even more prepared to fight to the death.

However, the muskets in the hands of the Taiping army were bayonets. As for the Japanese army, they used Japanese swords, and the strength of the bayonet was to stab but not to change, while the Japanese knife had many changes, so the Taiping army had suffered a loss in this item.

And if you suffer a loss, you have to pay it back, so at the beginning, the Taiping Army could still borrow its own combat power to fight with the Japanese army, but the more later, the disadvantage of this weapon came out, and the Japanese army began to gain the upper hand again.

In this way, the casualties of the Taiping army began to increase.

Li Xiucheng saw these in his eyes, but he was anxious in his heart.

He tried his best to kill, but the Japanese army was killing more and more, endlessly, he felt that he might not be able to be good today, he regretted a little, he shouldn't have listened to Huang Xu's words at the beginning, if he was careful of this femme fatale, he might not have forced her to this step.

said a thousand things and ten thousand, or he was too careless, the more Li Xiucheng thought about it, the more he regretted it, and the more he regretted it, the deeper the hatred for Sakurako in his heart. If Sakurako stood in front of Li Xiucheng at this time, Li Xiucheng would probably have to drink her blood.

Is it really going to be planted here today, Li Xiucheng is very unwilling.

However, he still hopes that a miracle will happen, and it would be nice if someone came to relieve him at this time.

However, the person Li Xiucheng was looking forward to to breaking the siege did not come, but he was looking forward to a bad star.

"Excuse me, you are General Li Xiucheng." I don't know when, a very nice voice came from behind Li Xiucheng.

Woman's voice, very nice woman's voice.

Impossible, this is a battlefield, where did the woman's voice come from, isn't it... Li Xiucheng thought of this, and his whole person not only froze.

He knew who was coming.

Li Xiucheng slowly turned around and looked at the woman behind him.

The first thing that caught his eye was a pair of big eyes, her eyes were very large, and they looked very flexible, which seemed to bring her whole person to life, melon seed face, very white skin, although she was riding on a horse, but I could feel that she was not tall, about the age of her early twenties.

If it weren't for the preconceived impression, then Li Xiucheng would definitely think that this was some girl next door, and she definitely had nothing to do with Mu Guiying of Japan.

However, Li Xiucheng knows that this woman looks petite and sweet, but she is definitely a ruthless character.

"This is General Li Xiucheng." The woman, no, it should be a girl, smiled slightly, and her soft voice sounded in Li Xiucheng's ears again.

Her smile is like a blooming flower, which makes people feel very comfortable.

My mother, is this Mu Guiying? Li Xiucheng's mind began to waver, and he wondered if he was mistaken, isn't there a difference between such a good girl and the femme fatale in his heart.

Seeing that Li Xiucheng was just looking at herself silently, the girl didn't care, and still laughed softly: "Is it General Li?" ”

"Cough, cough" Li Xiucheng only felt that his throat was itching, and his face was a little feverish, he turned his head to the side, avoiding the girl's gaze, and then said: "Li Xiucheng is below, I don't know how the girl recognizes it." ”

After Li Xiucheng finished speaking, he took a deep breath, his face was already natural, and of course he no longer refused the girl's gaze.

"My name is Sakurako, I am the guard general of Kobe, I heard the general's name a long time ago, and when I see it today, it is really a rumor, General Li is a real general." The girl reported to her home, and said.

It's really Sakurako.

And when Li Xiucheng heard that this girl was Sakurako, his face changed.

He calmed down for a moment and continued, "You are the Japanese princess Sakurako?" ”

Li Xiucheng felt that his voice was a little weird.

"Exactly." Sakurako still smiled lightly and said.

"Then I wonder what Sakurako-shogun is doing here?" Li Xiucheng's attitude changed sharply, and he said a little impatiently.

Now that he knows the identity of the other party, even if she is a fairy, Li Xiucheng will no longer speak kindly to her, and there is no evil words, which shows that he is broad-minded.

"General Li, you are a young talent, you have everything in your heart, how to solve today's situation, I think the army has already been in your chest." Sakurako still wore her signature smile, and she didn't care about Li Xiucheng's attitude at all, and she still spoke softly.

"Hmph, what does General Sakura mean by this, forgive Li, I really haven't understood it yet." Li Xiucheng said coldly.

He wanted to hear what Sakurako was trying to say.

"Alas!" Sakurako sighed, and then said, "General, I have a mention of yì, I wonder if the general has intentions?" ”

Of course, she is not unpurposeful, and of course she has a purpose in saying these things.

"Let's hear it first." Li Xiucheng opened his mouth and said.

He had to hear what was going on before he could do it.

"If the general can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, it will not only protect the glory of the general, but also the brothers under the general." Sakurako said.

This woman's persuasion is really good.

"Haha, good feelings, you are telling me to surrender, surrender and surrender, why do you say it so tactfully." Li Xiucheng laughed and said.

I finally understood, it turned out that this woman was here to persuade her to surrender.

"The general agreed." Sakurako said happily.

"Nope!" Li Xiucheng replied very simply.

"Then, General, you...."Sakurako said in surprise.

It was the first time she asked a man, but she refused, although this is not a matter of two people, but a national event, but a woman is rejected by a man in person, and her self-esteem is also quite hit.

"If you want me to surrender, there is no way, if you want to fight, we will fight." Li Xiucheng said coldly.

After speaking, a powerful momentum erupted from Li Xiucheng's body, looking like that, it was not a good thing to provoke him.

Sakurako saw that Li Xiucheng was so decisive in what he said, and seeing that the momentum was about to draw a knife at him, her face also changed, and she already understood that what she said to Li Xiucheng was in vain, and a fight between the two must be inevitable.

Thinking of this, Sakurako's eyes became fierce, and the momentum on her body also changed.

Look at this formation, a big battle really can't be avoided. (To be continued......)
