Chapter 322: The Chrysanthemum and the Knife
"It's better to ask for others than for yourself, of course the anonymous will make a move, it's okay if they don't make a move, we will either win or the jade will be broken, at least, in front of my Tokugawa Taka, there will never be a third way to go. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Takashi Tokugawa's voice was as thin as water, without the slightest human touch, success or failure, and no compromise, which made Tojo Yasu awe-inspired.
"No matter what, I'll follow the general!"
The afterglow in Tokugawa Taka's eyes saw Tojo Yasu's exuberant excitement and humility, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of bitterness in his heart.
"You must have thought about how things became like this, and even thought about how your life and mine became like this." A hint of contempt hung on the corner of Tokugawa's mouth, and he continued to monologue in Tojo Yasu's frightened and puzzled gaze, "I've thought about it too. β
"I remember when we were young, there were chrysanthemums on the hills over there, and I can still smell the fragrance when they bloomed, what a beautiful memory."
Tojo Yasu looked fascinated, yes, this scene that Tokugawa Takashi said was also something he often felt, and it definitely belonged to one of the softest things in his memory.
"But our children, when they reach your age and mine, will they have such good memories in their early thirties?"
Tojo Yasushi saw the deep compassion hidden in the contempt of the Tokugawa Hawk.
Of course, Tojo Yasu knew that the chrysanthemums that Tokugawa Takashi talked about were the result of the hard work of his father and Tokugawa Takashi's father, but more than ten years ago, Tokugawa Takashi's father was killed in that sea of flowers that he loved the most, and Tojo Yasu's father was difficult to support independently, and in the end, the chrysanthemums that no one cared for withered and withered, and the hills became barren again.
"I don't understand what the general means."
What Tojo Yasu didn't know was that the man who killed Takashi Tokugawa's father was Ling Tian.
Tokugawa Takashi knows. The revenge of killing his father was the strongest motivation to support Tokugawa Hawk's slaughter in Northeast Asia 10 years ago, and he wanted to force Ling Tian out and give him a humiliation in front of the world.
However, Tokugawa Eagle didn't do it, and Ling Tian didn't pay attention to him at all.
Now, when Ling Tian came, Tokugawa Takashi didn't have a happy feeling in his heart, but suddenly became confused.
If your fate is revenge, then what is the fate of your children?
Is it to become a complete Yanhuang who can't even speak Japanese?
Other than that, there doesn't seem to be anything bad, at least it's an infinite number of times better than following those hysterical bastards in the Mayan Star Domain to their demise.
Growing up, Tokugawa Takashi became more and more afraid of the powerful and unparalleled assimilation ability of the country of Yanhuang.
Since the First World War a decade ago, Tokugawa Takashi has stayed out of the way, and as a bystander, he has seen only the breadth and tolerance of the country of Yanhuang, as well as the narrowness and superficiality of his people.
He knew very well that with his e-sports strength back then, it would be too simple for Ling Tian to destroy him.
Or let him die directly, for Ling Tian, it would not be a matter of effort at all.
Ling Tian gave him time to grow, let him see more things, and also made him understand more truths.
He also knew very well that with the comprehensive ability of the He clan now, it would not be difficult for Yan Huang to destroy this nation.
"The elegant chrysanthemum and the slaughtering knife are two extremely contradictory, just like our nation, advocating harmony and love and common prosperity, but also murderous and dictatorial, so that we have fallen into what we are today."
When the chrysanthemum is said to be elegant, an expression of almost piety appeared on the face of the Tokugawa Taka. And when it came to the slaughter of the sword, there was only a deep disgust in his eyes that could not be concealed.
"The empire is still standing in the Mayan Star Domain, and the Yamato nation will surely go to glory again, General!"
"But is that your empire or my empire or the empire of the Yamato people?"
Tokugawa Taka's momentary rhetorical questions made the inexplicably excited Tojo Yasu speechless.
"It's still the empire of a small number of people, the ancestors of my Tokugawa family created the shogunate era, so that our nation has the foundation to prosper, and the later Meiji Restoration is a miracle beyond the epic, and what are the people of the Pheasant Empire doing?"
Yasu Tojo still had nothing to say.
"Like the fools of World War II, they shouted noble slogans, but they did things of destruction and destruction, and history has proven that the result of this is only destruction. I can't see the future, I can't see hope, you see? β
Yasu Tojo was stunned.
In private, he had never thought like this, but he didn't think that Tokugawa Taka would think the same way, and he would actually say it to himself now that the war was imminent.
"General..."
Tojo Yasu suddenly understood why Tokugawa Taka had just said to himself that he only had two paths to go.
Yes, for people like Tokugawa Taka, if you fight, you will die, and if you don't fight, you will die.
"Chrysanthemum and knife, if you have to choose one, which one do you choose."
Tokugawa Takashi withdrew his gaze, and he suddenly smiled heartily, he already had the answer in his heart.
"The general's choice is my choice!" Tojo Yasu thought to himself, even if you choose chrysanthemums, general, I will admit it, even if you have a third way, I will follow you if you want to compromise, at least then you may be able to see chrysanthemums blooming all over the hills again in your lifetime, right?
However, Tokugawa Taka chose a sword.
"I'll choose the knife and leave the chrysanthemum to you and my children... You help me contact the Yanhuang Red Soldier Alliance and tell them that I have something to say to Senior Ling Tian, please be sure to tell him, I very much hope that he can give me a chance. β
As a Shinto shogun, Tokugawa Takashi knew that he was a role model for many Wazu players.
Ten years ago, he himself seems to be nothing more than the word naΓ―ve today, the kind of e-sports youth full of personal goals and emotions, should not be called a dream, not the slightest brilliance, let alone form any positive energy for the next generation.
Tokugawa Taka wanted to change all that, and he also wanted to plant a hill of chrysanthemums for his children like his father, so that they would have at least some fond childhood memories.
He needs time, but after so many years, now that the second region of Northeast Asia has made a comeback, there is no time for him to cultivate countless beautiful flowers, he wants Ling Tian to give him a chance, even if he fails, even if he will die, then, after defeat, before death, give him time, let him have the opportunity to leave a beautiful memory for the children.
"What a chance... Yanhuang Red Soldier Alliance, Ling Tian... That legendary skirmisher king!? β
As a military and division-level figure in a huge straggler organization, Tojo Yasu certainly has a deep impression of the name Ling Tian, every detail of this emergency, Tokugawa Taka knows it, and because of this, he is even more inexplicably shocked, listening to Tokugawa Hawk's tone, Tokugawa Taka obviously knows a lot of things he doesn't know.
At least, he was very familiar with that Ling Tian!
