Chapter 222: The Follow-up of the Genji Shogunate
Reedbara, Shinto, Genji Jingu.
At this time, there are also snowflakes here, but hundreds of kilometers away in Kyoto Castle are lit up with thousands of lights, and Fujiwara Fuchu is also a warm family of three to have dinner together, at most the dishes are a little shabby.
At this time, in the Genji Mansion, it was like a mourning, all the heads of the family and the samurai were full of seriousness, and everyone else seemed to be preparing for the New Year, but they were all preparing for the funeral.
"There are more than 15,000 people in the coalition army, including nearly 5,000 samurai, as well as dozens of swordsmen, and one great swordsman, all of whom died in Kyoto, and no one returned......," the Koga ninja read out with the information from the investigation.
"Kyoto lost a city wall, 1,000 acres of buildings, and the total number of dead was less than 200, most of which were caused by unknown oddities, and the casualties inflicted by our army on the enemy were ...... Zero people ......"
Everyone fell silent, not even daring to breathe.
If General Yuan Laichao is very angry, then it is not a big problem, and it is good to dissipate his anger.
However, at this time, Yuan Yorichao did not have any anger, but swept everyone present with his eagle-like eyes.
It's just this situation that makes the people below even more hairy, even if the aura protects the body, it seems that they can't resist this cold.
Obviously, the temperature was close to freezing, but many of them oozed cold sweat under the silence and dripping on the ground.
"There are a total of 15,000 people, and less than 20 days have passed since the expedition, and all of them have died, and there is not even a single living mouth, even 15,000 domestic porpoises, and the Fujiwara clan cannot solve it in such a short time, I need an explanation."
Yuan Laichao's tone was very calm, but this calmness seemed to hit everyone's hearts.
Neither the former Levi nor the current Minamoto Yoritomo could have imagined that there would be super-sized guys like Yi Ji and Demon Monk Wan Hai in Kyoto, who could wipe out this army of more than 10,000 people in just a few minutes.
Levi could do this, but only if all the enemies were gathered together and didn't resist.
And on the other hand, the Faceless helped Levi a lot, and the Faceless almost single-handedly wiped out all the ninjas and downlines of the Genji Shogunate in Kyoto.
If it had been smarter and told all this information, maybe Levi might have let it go, and it would have been able to achieve its ambitions.
Therefore, more than half a month has passed, and the people of Shendu have not received any news for more than ten days before sending ninjas again, and they found that the army has been completely wiped out, and there is not a single living mouth, not even a single corpse left.
The ninja probed outside the city for a long time before recovering the scene and reporting back.
Yuan Laichao was angry when he first got the news, and he didn't know how many maids he had hacked to death, but now he can't be angry.
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
After all, he was the one who created the entire shogunate system, and no matter how angry he was, all he could think about at this time was how to properly resolve this incident and how to deal with the Kyoto Fujiwara clan.
If this incident is not handled well, he may be overthrown like his old rival Taira, and it will become a piece of history and the infamy that will be left in future generations.
Instead, he needs to be calm, more calm than anyone else.
"General Yuan, it's not the fault of our soldiers, it's the Fujiwara clan that doesn't talk about martial arts, the human civil war, they collude with demons and release weirdness, it's really inappropriate, heaven is intolerable, we should send troops again to carry out heavenly punishment on the Fujiwara clan!" A head of the house said.
"Yes, our soldiers basically died from weirdness and demons, and the Fujiwara clan is completely just relying on the snort of others, obviously our soldiers prioritize the fate of the human race and choose to fight with demons and weirdness first, but the Fujiwara clan is despicable and shameless halfway!"
"It must be like this, General Yuan, we should continue to send troops, and then contact other daimyos, this time directly attack the city, and not give the Fujiwara clan any respite."
"General Yuan, we should block the news and announce to the people below that we have won a great victory, and Kyoto will not be able to raise its head after being beaten by us, so we can only retreat into the city. And we recruited troops again, and this time we sent a large army to suppress the border and completely break through Kyoto. ”
The heads of the family basically don't think that it is the strange collusion between the Fujiwara clan and the demons that can win, and the combat power of Kyoto itself is still just a local chicken and a dog, and it is vulnerable.
"General Yuan, it's not proper, it's going to be winter soon, we have already suffered a lot of vitality, and even the head of the Shangquan family and the great sword of Yagyu have died in Kyoto, we should rest and recuperate, and wait for the spring of next year!"
Of course, there are also more rational ones, the food stocks in their Shendu are actually not very sufficient, and besides, they took away a lot of grain and grass from the expedition some time ago, and the rest of the mess needs to be dealt with.
If you go out again in a short period of time, it will really be your own foundation.
However, whether it is a dovish or an eagle, the basic view is to play, but on one side it is that it will be sent again immediately, and on the other hand, it is believed that it will not be sent until the next year when it has recuperated.
At this moment, another person's voice came.
"Gen General, we can directly recognize the identity of the Fujiwara clan's daimyo, that will save many people from the suffering of war, our enemies are more demons, weird, and Ezo people after all." A strategist said.
The strategist of the Sakura Country can also be called a military advisor, or a strategist.
The words of this strategist had always been from the bottom of his heart, and he had not been in favor of marching into Kyoto before, because he had always believed that the enemies of the Terrans were demons and monsters first, followed by the Ezo people, and then considered infighting.
There are only demons and weirdness left outside the city, and even from time to time there are demons or weird people who have entered the city and committed a lot of evil consequences, not to mention the country, and even all the human races seem to be walking on a tightrope, and the whole human race will perish if they are not careful.
But in this case, the shogun and the samurai were only thinking about infighting.
The advisor only felt a chill in his heart, and he often wondered if such a lord was really a master.
At this time, the whole scene instantly cooled down, and it returned to the previous oppressive atmosphere again.
Yuan Laichao looked at him with a cold look in his eyes, but the strategist did not take a step back.
"Drag him out and let him apologize." He was very calm and said the end of the strategist in front of him.
"General! Even if I cut my stomach immediately, we shouldn't fight among ourselves anymore, no matter what, we are all Terrans, but now our bigger threat is demons and weirdness! General Gen ......"
But he had already been dragged down by the samurai, and it would not be long before he would be seppuku because of his shame.
