Chapter 165: The Wind Has Changed
"Looks like you're going to sacrifice your lives." I looked at Matsumoto Masaga and his men, who were blocking the front of our army.
Since it's a performance, it naturally has to be a little bloody, otherwise wouldn't it be in vain if it wasn't touching enough? Matsumoto Masaka stood in front of me and looked at me with the expression of a martyr who was about to die generously, and then said very firmly and passionately: "We will not die, you don't want to take another step forward." ”
"Good, good. Since you want to be heroes, then I will satisfy you. I said and waved my hand forward. Kill them all. ”
"Yes." A neat answer sounded that the Japanese players who were fleeing almost fell on their heels, but Matsumoto Masaga's people were as fearless as a, and they stood in front of us without the slightest shaking.
In fact, there is not much difference between Matsumoto Masaga's people and Onite Nobunaga's people in essence, and there is a reason why Matsumoto Masaga's team can be different from those led by Onite Nobunaga and show such a strong fighting spirit.
First, Masakamoto Masaka's people had faith, but Nobunaga's team did not. To put it bluntly, Onite Nobunaga organized a group of Japanese who were tempted by profits to usurp the fruits of Matsumoto Masaga's labor, so Onite Nobunaga's team had no fighting faith at all. They are here for profit, and once they find that they are unprofitable, they will have to pay a huge price, where can these people still boost their morale? But Matsumoto Masaga is different. His people knew that they were fighting for the revival of Japan, and they wanted not profit, but fame. Victory in battle is their honor; Defeat in battle, that is their ambition. They have what they have gained regardless of life or death, so they are not afraid of death.
Second, Masakamoto Masaka's people have more confidence than Onite Nobunaga's people. Nobunaga's men were all Japanese players from various small guilds, and although they were driven by profit to fight with Nobunaga Ghost, they did not have a firm belief in whether the battle would be won. Although Matsumoto Masaka had previously been promoting his spring theory, that is, waiting for Japan's combat power to be compressed to a limit, then suddenly rebounding and destroying all the Chinese power in Japan in one fell swoop to recover all of Japan. However, this theory was Matsumoto Masaka's, and Onite Nobunaga only referred to and borrowed Matsumoto Masaka's arrangement, and he himself actually didn't understand the core content of the plan, let alone those who worked with him. At the beginning of the war, everyone saw the benefits, so naturally they didn't say that they were going forward bravely, but now that the attack has been frustrated, these people immediately have no bottom in their hearts. However, unlike them, Masaka Matsumoto's people have a bottom in their hearts. Not to mention that many of Matsumoto Masaga's elite subordinates were the people I sent to him, even those who were real Japanese, they had heard Matsumoto Masaka's detailed plans, so they knew in their hearts what the future battle situation would be like. Just because they understand the future and can see the hope of expelling the Chinese forces, they are different from the people of Onide Nobunaga, they dare to sacrifice, and they also know what sacrifice can be exchanged for.
Thirdly, Matsumoto Masaga's people are much more elite than Onite Nobunaga's. Sometimes the superior actually has a lot of drags, some things that seem simple will become very troublesome to them, and some things that they know should do, but they can't do because of all kinds of problems. Although Nobunaga has basically lost his position as the leader of Japan, this loss is only a loss of trust, not that he has been ousted. So Ghost Hand Nobunaga is still under a lot of containment, his forces are chaotic and have no pedigree, many people are ordinary players, one is chaotic in command, and the other is uneven in combat effectiveness, so it's strange that such a super miscellaneous army can have combat effectiveness. But Matsumoto Masaga is different. Although he is now seeking to ascend to the throne, he is not yet in the ascendancy, so he has a lot of things that can be arranged exactly according to his own vision. As long as he thinks of something, he can execute it immediately, without having to explain it to the public and not being responsible to anyone, which makes his team much more efficient than Onite Nobunaga's people. Besides, although Matsumoto Masaga is isolated on the surface, behind him is actually standing our Frost Rose Alliance. His strategic plans were all arranged for him by our Frost Rose Alliance's think tank, and they were much more reliable than Nobunaga's plans. Moreover, in addition to the planning and arrangement, the strong financial resources of our guild also ensured that Matsumoto Masaka could always reap a lot of unexpected benefits, and the result was that although Matsumoto Masaka's men were not many in number, they were all armed to the teeth, not only well-equipped, but also had special guidance on combat skills, which was much stronger than the motley army of Oni Hand Nobunaga.
Because of the above three bottoms, Matsumoto Masaga's people are not afraid of death at all, they know what they are fighting for and what benefits they can gain after the war, anyway, there is no loss for them to fall one level anyway, and it is strange that they will be afraid in such a situation.
Now the two sides of the war between China and Japan are the troops of our Frost Rose Alliance and the troops of Matsumoto Masaka, one side is like a rainbow of morale, the other side is fearless to death, such two armies collide together, the scene can be described as shocking. For the sake of secrecy and for the sake of realism, Matsumoto Masaga and I never told our subordinates that the place was actually our own people, so the people on both sides were fighting with all our might. Almost as soon as the vanguards on both sides collided together, the front line was immediately a scene of flesh and blood. Because both sides are elites, there is no such situation where one side quickly defeats the other, and the people on both sides are together, and they can still rely on technology to fight at first, and then the crowd is mixed and they don't care about whether they are skilled or not. Hugging the waist, pinching the neck, picking out the eyes, biting the nose, all the messy tricks have come out. However, although the tricks are not good-looking, it does not affect the bloody process of this battle at all, on the contrary, because the personnel on both sides are mixed together, our mage group cannot carry out long-range support, so the battle has become a complete white-knuckle battle, that scene can be said to be more bloody and bloody, and later many people who have watched that video said that this is called the real battlefield, no magic, no equipment, and only blood and soul.
However, although the interception force led by Matsumoto Masaga fought very fiercely and tragically, they were few after all, and although they were elite, we were not a ragtag army, so the battle did not last too long and ended, but this time still allowed our pursuit force to successfully distance itself from the evacuation of Onite Nobunaga's gang. Even if our people chase after us now, it actually doesn't mean much.
Although the fight between the two sides was fierce, Matsumoto Masaga and I did not participate in the battle, but stood face to face all the time. The belligerents on both sides also knew each other about our two leaders, so everyone tacitly avoided the area near us, so Matsumoto Masaga and I were unable to engage from the beginning to the end.
Seeing that all the subordinates in the vicinity had died, Matsumoto Masaga did not show any sadness and unhappiness, but looked at me and laughed. "Hahahaha...... Purple Sun, you lost. ”
Many people didn't react to this at the time, because on the surface, the current situation was that the Japanese army had fled, and Matsumoto Masaga's broken rear army was completely annihilated, and in any case, this victory seemed to have nothing to do with Matsumoto Masaga. But to their surprise, I shook my head helplessly and replied, "Matsumoto Masaka, you are a talent, but it's a pity that our position is hostile. But don't get too complacent, we'll see you again soon. ”
Matsumoto Masaga replied with a smile, "When you settle the polar bear, I will let you understand how much you have lost today." ”
"No, that's not a loss, but a temporary storage here for you, I haven't got what I want yet." As soon as I finished speaking, I suddenly turned around and waved to the Frost Rose Alliance. "Let's go."
No one was depressed, and all the troops belonging to the Frost Rose Alliance on the entire battlefield, whether it was players or NPCs, all turned around neatly and followed me and began to retreat, while Matsumoto Masaga looked at us with envy on his face, and after a long time he turned to the air behind him and said, "How long are you going to watch there?" ”
"You know we're not leaving?" Matsumoto Masaga suddenly opened a spatial door around him, and Ghost Nobunaga, Kohatsu Kenjiro, Red Lotus Phoenix, and several heads of the Great Japanese Guild walked out of it one after another.
Matsumoto Masaga did not answer Kenjiro Kohato's question directly, but turned around and walked back while saying, "Look at your helmet!" ”
"Helmet?" Kenjiro Kohato looked at Matsumoto Masaga who was gradually leaving them and walking backwards suspiciously, and after a while, he took off the helmet on his head suspiciously, but he just took off the helmet and didn't have time to look at it, when he heard a click, and suddenly felt the power loosen in his hand, and the helmet was broken into hundreds of pieces and scattered to the ground.
The sudden shattering of Kohato's helmet startled the others around him, and one of the leaders of the Grand Guild asked Kohato, looking at the debris all over the ground in surprise. "What's going on?"
Kenjiro Kohato himself was stunned as he looked at his empty hands and the debris all over the ground, as if he hadn't heard the president's question. After a long time, it was the Red Lotus Phoenix who reacted first and said, "Purple Sun is really still the world's No. 1 Purple Sun...... The gap between us and him is too big! ”
"What? Could this be the ...... of the Purple Sun? Although Nobunaga Ghost has not finished asking, the meaning is already clear.
Red Lotus Phoenix nodded and said, "Although I'm not sure either, I did see that Ziri had glanced at us intentionally or unintentionally when he was talking to Matsumoto Masaga, and his hand seemed to move, but I didn't see any attack from him at all." However, judging from Matsumoto Masaga's words just now, this should have been done by Zi Sun, and Matsumoto Masaga should have seen Zi Sun's actions. ”
"But aren't we in a subspace state?" Kenjiro Kohato asked in disbelief. "Although we were defeated in that duel space before, the purple sun is not so terrifying!"
"No, he's just that scary." Another president said: "When you were in the duel space before, Ziri was suppressed by the system, and you both had attribute improvements, so it can be said that the gap between the two sides in terms of attributes was forcibly filled by the system. But you still lost, which can only show that Ziri's combat awareness and combat experience are far above you. Now that you have left that duel space, your combat attributes have all returned to normal levels, and the gap between Zi Sun and you has immediately widened, so it is not surprising that he can attack you in the subspace without us noticing at all. ”
"But if he can do that, why doesn't he just kill me?" Kenjiro Kohato still won't believe it.
Red Lotus Phoenix explained a little angrily: "He didn't do it because he didn't think it was necessary. Our men had already run away, and it didn't make much sense for him to kill a few of us. He smashed your helmet as a demonstration, he was warning us that not only did he know that we were eavesdropping, but that he was capable of killing us. As for not killing us, this is also a warning, he is posturing, telling us that he doesn't even bother to do anything with us. Ziri's strength is really terrifying! ”
"I'm not afraid of his strength." Another president of the Japanese guild said, "Anyway, he only has one person, and no matter how strong he is, he can't rely on one person to fight against our whole of Japan." What I'm really worried about is Ziri's intelligence, compared to him we are like idiots being played around. I'm really starting to regret now that I didn't follow Matsumoto-kun's plan! ”
"What do you mean by that?" When Ghost Nobunaga heard this, he was immediately displeased. This action was arranged by him, and these presidents are also the ideological work he did one by one, and now people say that they regret not acting according to the original plan, isn't that tantamount to saying that Ghost Nobunaga harmed them?
Hell, Nobunaga was angry, and one of the presidents next to him immediately said, "Don't be angry, you're the one who is the least qualified to be angry here now." The plan was a mess, and our strength was also a huge loss. We don't know if Matsumoto's plan is feasible or not, but yours has already been verified. For this terrible operation, we not only lost a lot of combat power and materials, but more importantly, we lost the trust of the majority of Japanese players. This loss is what hurts me the most! ”
"yes!" The president who spoke before said, "At the beginning, several staff officers in the meeting told me not to get involved in this matter, but I was still moved by Ghost Hand-kun's words, and it turned out to be like this. I don't have the face to go back to see them now! ”
"Okay, okay, it's all my fault, right?" Onite Nobunaga suddenly erupted. He roared like thunder: "When the battle fails, you know that you will put the blame on me, where did you all go before?" If this plan succeeds, will I take it alone? Why didn't you say there was a loophole in the plan? Why didn't I see you come out and say that there was a problem with the plan? Did I decide on this plan alone? You have always commanded the troops in your hands, and have I given them an order? Now that you've messed up, you know you're coming to me? Why did you go earlier? ”
The sudden outburst of Onite Nobunaga stunned several presidents present, but they then did not refute Onite Nobunaga, but collectively bowed to Onite Nobunaga after looking at each other, and then one of the more prestigious presidents said on behalf of the others: "We admit that we were blinded by interests before, but now we have woken up from a dream, and we have been awakened by the Chinese with a loud slap." We endured the hot pain on our faces, who let us be blinded by interests? But now that there is a slap mark on the left side of the face, we don't want to add another one on the right. You have helped us in the past, and we will never shirk what we need in the future, but for now...... Please forgive us for not following you any longer. Speaking of which, the presidents of the guilds present bowed to Onite Nobunaga collectively, and then before the stunned Onite Nobunaga could react, they ran out after Matsumoto Masaka, and by the time Onite Nobunaga reacted and wanted to stop them, those people had already run away.
"I ...... You ......" Looking at the backs of the presidents who had passed away, Onite Nobunaga felt that he had suddenly aged ten years old. Now he finally realized the feeling he had imposed on Matsumoto Masaga, the feeling of falling from the clouds to hell - it was really worse than death!
"Ghost Hand Gentleman."
As soon as the Red Lotus Phoenix said three words, it was stopped by Onite Nobunaga. He sat down on the ground in a daze, looked down at the ground, and then raised a hand and waved it at the Red Lotus Phoenix. "You don't need to explain it to me, I understand, you can go too."
After hearing Ghost Nobunaga's words, the Red Lotus Phoenix glanced at Ghost Nobunaga with a complicated expression, but she didn't explain anything, but decisively turned around and chased after Matsumoto Masaka.
Ghost Hand Nobunaga let the Red Lotus Phoenix go was originally just a moment of frustration, and he also knew that he couldn't keep the Red Lotus Phoenix. Unlike ordinary women, Red Lotus Phoenix is a very ambitious woman, and she is not something that Nobunaga can keep from falling from the altar. However, although he knew it in his heart, seeing that the Red Lotus Phoenix left him without hesitation, Ghost Nobunaga still felt very sad. However, after being sad for a long time, he suddenly found that there was still a pair of legs standing there beside him. He looked up at the owner of the legs with a slight surprise.
"Kenjiro? Why are you ......? ”
Without waiting for Nobunaga to finish asking, Kenjiro Kohato looked up at the sky and said, "I don't know either." It is said that I should also abandon you to join Matsumoto-kun, originally I followed you just to find a backer, and now you obviously don't meet this condition. But I don't know why, I always feel that Matsumoto and Masaka are not all the way, so I am also hesitant. ”
If Matsumoto Masaga and I were here now, we would definitely be surprised to hear Kenjiro Kohato say such a paragraph, but we are not here now, and Nobunaga Onite does not understand the key, so Kenjiro Kohato's decision is naturally not applauded.
As a super undercover agent we sent to Japan, Matsumoto Masaga naturally can't have the same heart with the pure Japanese player Kenjiro Kohato, so Kenjiro Kohato's intuition is too accurate, but it's a pity that he just intuitively feels that he doesn't fit in with Matsumoto Masaga, and he can't find the key, so he missed the opportunity to reveal the big secret of the day. As for Matsumoto Masaga himself, he's busy dealing with a large group of new brothers who want to mess with him.
