Chapter 8: Before the War
In Xia Wei, the four of them rushed out of the ambush circle, not noticing that the face of the dead Onmyoji had changed into another person.
Takasugi Shinsuke led the ghost soldiers to charge to open the encirclement, Sakamoto Tatsuma walked in the middle with Xia Wei, who was completely out of strength, and the two of them were broken.
There was no one to command, and it was all small soldiers, so they successfully broke through, but the more than 1,000 small soldiers who surrounded them behind were not killed immediately, and they were too close to Edo, and there were still unknown reinforcements on the opposite side, which would come soon.
Returning to the ambush place, the group was just about to fight and run, when the people on the opposite side retreated. However, this was undoubtedly good news for Xia Wei, who had been seriously injured, and quickly ran back to the station.
"I'm sorry." Yinshi looked at Xia Wei who was lying on the bed.
"It's fine, but why didn't they set up an ambush directly in Edo Castle, so that we didn't run away so easily, and it was hard to figure out why they suddenly retreated in the end." Xia Wei sat up.
"I don't know, there are too many possibilities." Sakamoto brought a bowl of medicine, "Here." ”
"Thank you." Xia Wei took the bowl, "But judging from the fact that they began to set up ambushes against us, the shogunate has paid more attention to our side. The next step may not be as easy as it used to be. ”
"Anyway, it's been a while since we joined the war, and we can't see any improvement at all." Xia Wei looked out the window, "I have always said that our side can bring miracles, but it can only win in a small area, and on the whole, we will lose." ”
"Yes, we can still walk around the Edo border because the main forces of the Celestial Beings are in other battlefields, and it is said that except for the Choshu Domain, which can hold out for a while, the others are about to surrender." Tatsuma Sakamoto sighed, after all, he was the first to join the war, among the group.
"No matter what, we can't lose yet." Ginshi clenched his fists.
"These Earth Monkeys just aren't useful." A group of people dressed in black cloaks and carrying something like a dustpan formed a circle.
"Now all we can use is to suppress other battlefields, and we don't have time to care about this group of newly jumped monkeys now." A guy who couldn't even see his face spoke.
(Hey, don't you can't see your face in this group of guys, it's definitely on purpose, let me come out and complain and brush the word count.) By glasses) (Okay, I'll just write the dialogue next.,Ask for this more.,Puff by the author)
"Well, if you send people from other battlefields over, maybe these guys will be resurrected again, and it's better to kill them all at once."
"Then bring in the cosmic mercenaries. Even if you can't win, you can drag it out for a while. ”
"The phoenix of the Night Rabbit Clan, didn't you always want that Jihara, only he can participate in the war, then give him Jiyuan after the war."
"And let other mercenaries come over, you can't just rely on one phoenix."
"So be it."
If there is something to do, nothing will pass like this, and after a period of boredom, for Xia Wei, because he has been lying in bed.
"Yo, alright?" Katsura wears a suit of armor.
"Did you just finish the fight?"
"Well, it's just a small war, after all, the celestials don't have time to take care of this side now, but it should be soon." Katsura takes off her armor.
"yes, the leisurely time is coming to an end." Xia Wei did some basic martial arts to move his body.
"Are you here, Chinese kung fu?" Gui watched Xia Wei do some strange movements.
"Ah, I guess so, most of them." Xia Wei felt that there was nothing wrong with his body, "I saw it completely." ”
"Oh, let's celebrate with a banquet in the evening."
"Okay, it's been a long time since I've eaten a good meal, and this will be a good meal. Let's see if we can catch a wild boar or something. Xia Wei picked up the knife and walked outside. At night, 5 people sat on the roof, and there was constant noise from the people below.
"Seems to be fun." summer
"After all, this is a rare time to relax." Sakamoto stood up, "Why do you want to do something after the war is over." ”
"I don't know, I haven't thought about this kind of thing yet." Xia Wei took a sip of wine and poured on the roof to look at the stars in the sky. "I'm going to spend a long time on my own."
"Hey, what does that mean?" Sakamoto turned his head to look at Xia Wei, "I don't understand what I said." ”
"That's it." Xia Wei was perfunctory.
"I still have things to do, and I'll talk about it when I'm done." Gintoki looked at the soldiers who were lying in a ball below.
Takasugi sat on the side and looked at the moon.
("If the moon is bright, you won't be able to see the stars.") "Xia Wei.
"Don't mind that it's just a comic, turn left if you go to the scientific exam." )
In the following period, there were more and more reinforcements from the celestials, and the war became more and more difficult to fight, but compared to other battlefields that were losing and retreating. The victory here stands out.
"Ha, ha" Xia Wei stood among the piles of corpses, "It's been a day of fighting, and there are really a lot of guys in this group." ”
"Ahahahaha, it's amazing, I'm almost hungry." Sakamoto stood next to Xia Wei with a knife.
"Sure enough, it's getting stronger and stronger, the people sent by the shogunate." Katsura looked at the spaceship parked in the distance, "What's going on over there in Gintoki." ”
"I don't know, let's deal with this group of guys first." Xia Weidu glanced at it, "This is the virus celestial." It seems that the end of the war is almost near. ’
At night, a group of people are scrambling for food in the pot.
"Woohoo." Yinshi touched the water next to him and poured a few mouthfuls, "Ah, I thought I was going to die." ”
"I'm full, the pressure is getting bigger, and there's not much left." Xia Wei put down the bowl.
"I heard that another vassal has surrendered, don't rob it, this piece of meat is mine." As Katsura spoke, Gintoki snatched a piece of meat from his bowl.
"Hmph, it's all a bunch of incompetents." Takasugi continued to sit upright in this chaotic environment.
"Well, the future will wait until the future. Now it's just a matter of doing what you can now. Gintoki looked out the door.
"That's right." Xia Wei stood up, "I'll go rest first, I'm afraid it will be more difficult tomorrow." ”
And so a few more days passed in the midst of the constant war.
"A group of rice buckets, mercenaries who have ruined several planets, can't even win with a few monkeys."
"Well, it's true that I underestimate these monkeys, but the general trend has been achieved, and they won't be able to jump for a few days."
"Sure enough, do you still have to deal with it with the people of Amaterasu-in? Let the Eight Birds hurry up and finish the finishing touches over there, and then go and deal with these annoying flies. ”
"Let's do it, is the phoenix still grinding? What did he ask for. ”
"Didn't you let Amaterasu deal with it, this disobedient dog won't be used."
"No, it's better to add an extra layer of insurance, anyway, this dog's teeth are still there, and it can be used for a while, and it's not time to be stocked."
"Let's see, what else does he ask, if it's not excessive, he will agree for the time being. I've bitten a lot of things for us, so give them as a reward. ”
"Okay." A group of people agreed.
