Chapter VI: Executions
Just when Xia Wei, Yinshi and Katsura were fighting with dozens of samurai on the opposite side, Takasugi in the woods behind the right of the general on the opposite side saw this opportunity and rushed out with more than 20 people.
Then the more than 20 soldiers led by Takasugi entangled several guards around the opposite general, and Takasugi killed the opposite general with two knives, cut off the head and handed it to a soldier next to him. Then the head of the still unknown general was tied to a spear by the minions and raised for display, and then a group of minions shouted "The enemy general has been taken,......
The battle ended quickly, and it took less than an hour from the battle to the defeat of one side, and the reason was naturally that the opposite side did not pay attention to the cannon fodder strikers on this side. However, as time passes, the more prominent the records of Xia Wei, Yinshi, Katsura and Takasugi, the stronger the enemies they will face.
After the end of the war, the general of the right forward army once again invited Xia Wei 4 people, and then said that I reported your merits, as long as you regain the lost position, I will recommend you to become the commander of the left forward, and I said a lot of things, and then wanted to get closer to each other.
However, Yinshi has been eating non-stop, Takasugi left directly to sit outside to admire the moon and drink, and Gui didn't come at all to check the loss, so this commander has been talking to Xia Wei, and then Xia Wei looked at him with a smile on his face and didn't speak. The commander smiled a little as he spoke, not mentioning it, and then it was like he was really just having another celebration feast. The atmosphere was a bit strange, though, and after a while the Commander left on his own.
"Oh, finally gone, twitter affects my eating." Yinshi buttoned his nose and ate the meat with chopsticks.
"It's not good, the social relationship with people is so bad, but it affects the career." Xia Wei looked out the door.
"I didn't come here to get ahead in order to get ahead, and besides, aren't you the same?" Yinshi looked at Xia Wei and took a bite of meat.
"Ah, it doesn't matter, I don't want to be too troublesome with this kind of thing." Xia Wei fell to the ground, "War, after a while, we will set off again, maybe it will be tomorrow." There are some things that you have to do even if you don't want to. ”
"War obviously doesn't like this kind of thing, I really hope there is no such thing, but now I have to use the power of war, it's really ridiculous sadness, the sadness of living in this era" Silver time drink a sip of wine "Since you want to do it, you have to do your best, now I don't have time to feel sad, if it's just a waste of time to sigh here, then I will definitely regret not doing it in the future, rather than feeling regretful and sad because I didn't do it, I want to do it and smile to meet the final result whether it is what I want or not. ”
"yes, hopefully you can get the results you want." Xia Wei was lying on the ground, and Xia Wei didn't say the words in his heart, 'It's a pity that it's destined to be sad'.
"I only have the sword in my hand now, and if they don't give it to me, then I'll take it myself." Gintoki's expression now wasn't as lazy as before, but this serious expression only lasted for a while, and then it turned into a look of indifference.
No one spoke after that, Xia Wei lay on the ground, Yinshi drank without saying a word, and waited until the people outside dispersed.
Xia Wei opened his eyes, supported the ground with his hands, stood up, walked to the door and looked back at Yinshi, "Let's go, let's get ready to recapture everything, start with the lost position the day before yesterday." Then he walked out.
The next day, the order was issued, Xia Wei 4 people will lead the team to recapture the lost position, and the 4 people will become temporary commanders again, and after regaining the position, they will turn positive, which is also because the current situation of the Zaoyi Domain is not optimistic, and a group of heroes are urgently needed, heroes who can bring hope, so Xia Wei 4 people who have made 2 big moves have been promoted relatively quickly. However, the opposite side will not allow any further changes on the side of the Zaoyi Domain, so Xia Wei and the four will become the key targets.
Since the damage caused by Xia Wei's 4-man run last time has not yet recovered, the recapture battle this time is still relatively easy, and he has not encountered particularly strong resistance.
After officially commanding the First Army, Takasugi began to select people in the army, and instead of singled out the so-called noble-born Choshu Domain samurai and the children of nobles, he selected members from among the lower samurai and commoners. Forming a special operation team, Takasugi named the Ghost Soldier Team, a team used for surprise attacks, ambushes, and assaults, and the mortality rate when joining in is very high, so it is a ghost soldier.
Just when Xia Wei and Yinshi were constantly fighting and then winning miraculous victories, there were also some people in other forces who did not exist to climb to high positions, and of course more people died.
"In a great victory, the former army of the Choshu domain once again defeated the Celestial and made a breakthrough, and the next step will be to approach Edo." A teenager who looked to be only 14 years old squatted in a chair, drinking porridge while watching the report sent from above.
"Can you not read while eating, it will all be spilled on the table." A middle-aged man in a white suit who looked imposing like a hegemon was sitting at a low table and eating breakfast slowly.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm used to it, and besides, aren't you tired after you've been preaching for half a year?" The boy was still drinking porridge while watching the report.
"Then you should have changed it sooner." The middle-aged man said in a very flat voice.
"Ah, people with cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive disorder really can't stand it." The boy stepped out of his chair and said, "Hey, this is." ”
A photograph of Natsu Yui, Takasugi, Gintoki, Katsura, and Tatsuma Sakamoto as reinforcements.
"Hey, come and see, there are people who are not afraid of death and are with the protagonist." The boy waved the piece of paper in his hand.
"It's never been like this, isn't it? Staying with the protagonist is the most dangerous, but it is also the most rewarding. Didn't we just dare, that's why we stayed in the Satsuma Domain? The middle-aged man wiped his mouth slowly.
"This time it should be the time when Yoshida Matsuyo died, are we going to fight?" The boy said.
"No, this time it is inevitable to lose, it is this time that the celestial people have increased their troops on a large scale, the shogunate has completely surrendered, the sword order has been abolished, and Yoshida Matsuyo has died. Besides, the person on the other side will also make a move. We just need to stay on this battlefield until we accept it, and we don't have to worry about it. The middle-aged man put down his handkerchief.
"Ah, I don't know why I worked with you at that time, I don't have any adventurous spirit at all." Sitting in a chair, the boy hugged the back of his head and looked at the ceiling.
"Because you don't want to die." The middle-aged man glanced at the young man with his spare eyes, "I'm done eating, it's time to go on patrol, hurry up." ”
"Hey, I see, it's really troublesome." The boy picked up the bowl and gulped down the rest of the porridge. Stood up and picked up the coat that was sitting next to him, looked at the photo printed on the paper before going out, paused, and turned away.
And Xia Wei also received the news that the shogunate was going to execute the prisoners arrested during the Kansho prison.
