Chapter 60 The city is destroyed and the friends are rescued from the danger of death
But it was said that outside the city, when the ninja returned and everything was ready, Jingzhen and Takeda Shingen were all dressed up, and led 400 people to the mouth of the sea to touch the castle. It's just the fourth watch, the moonlight is clear, and the city is even more unconscious.
Seeing this, the Mochizuki ninjas, who had been silently cleaning the door in the city and had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly lowered the door shaft and pushed the city gate open. The Takeda Army, who had been holding back their vengeful anger all the way, suddenly roared in and shouted loudly, and under the guidance of the ninjas, they went straight towards the castle tower to kill. The Koga ninja under the command of Jingzhen also set fire to the city, causing chaos in the city.
It is said that the lives of the Shinano people have been exhausted, and the Youzu Nobumasa and the Youzu army, which are the last vigilance force, are also in a mud pool.
Na Tsu Nobumasa was shot the night before, and tonight he was assigned to defend the city, and under the double injury of body and mind, he had already ignored the military order and drank alone in the middle of the night, and at this moment he was drunk and lying in the castle head and Miss Chiyo in a dream. The people under his command naturally went up and down, either they drank and fell asleep after drinking happily in the middle of the night, or they slipped into the people gathered in the city to find female dependents and fooled around, or none of them had a serious vigil.
Suddenly, when he heard the loud noise, Youjin Shinmasa hurriedly asked in alarm, "Why is it noisy?" However, before the words fell, he was dragged over by the Koga ninja who followed the sound and threw out the hook.
Under the scramble of the generals of the Takeda army, the Youjin army, which was unprepared and lost its main general, could not resist such a wolf-like attack, and they either died or fled.
In an instant, Captain Takeda drove straight in, as if entering a no-man's land, and the entire Sea Mouth City was full of flames, and the smoke was lost in space!
But it was said that Umino Yuzuna was still detained in the room, and he could hear the shouts of killing from far and near, and he didn't know that the city had been breached, and he could only try to escape first in grief.
Then, as soon as he thought about it, he saw a few cold flashes of light, and the guards outside the door had fallen down with their throats clutched, and a ninja shrouded in black clothes entered the room in a grand manner. Although I don't know his face, but from the shape and hunch in my heart, Umino Yukitsuna knows that he is the same person as the person who framed himself in the book!
Sure enough, the ninja chuckled under his breath and said in a hoarse voice:
"Seeing His Highness Umino, he left in a hurry in the morning without greetings, which is really rude! In the lower household, Baiyun Zhai, on the order of the lord, please ask His Royal Highness Haiye to talk in person! ”
After that, without waiting for Umino Yukitsuna to react, he took out a blowpipe from behind his back, and a puff of yellow smoke covered his mouth and nose. Umino Yutsunade knew that it was not good, but he was already dizzy, and he fell straight down, letting the household be carried away by Bai Yunzhai.
On the other side, Hiraga Nariyori was drunk and lying on top of the castle tower, until the Takeda army had surrounded the castle tower and shouted that the fire of killing rose from under his feet, and he was shocked to get drunk, knowing that something was wrong. He was about to summon the surrounding people to resist the breakthrough, but when he saw that the generals were still drunk and snoring, he already knew that he could not do anything.
One moment he was still the "No. 1 Shinano General" who repelled Kai Takeda, but the next moment he was already a sinner who lost his family's vital point. Frustrated, Hiraga Chenglai pulled out his ribs and tried to commit suicide, but he couldn't do it after two rounds.
Feeling the amplitude of the tremors of the stairs getting bigger and bigger, and knowing that the pursuers were approaching, Hiraga Nariyori finally sighed, put on his armor haphazardly, and prepared to flee. Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the door, he was hit by an arrow that happened to fly from outside the door and fell to the surface.
"I'm careless, I knew it might as well be seppuku just now."
One last thought flashed through Hiraga's mind, and he lost consciousness forever.
Just as Takeda Shingen looked back triumphantly, ready to show off his archery skills to Jingzhen again, he was unexpectedly dragged behind him by Jingzhen the next moment and stumbled.
Without waiting for his anger, in a burst of exclamations, Jingzhen was also shot down by a Shinano general who was a little less drunk and struggled to pull away the light bow with him!
……
When he regained consciousness, Jingzhen felt that his body was very light, almost lost weight, but everything in front of him gradually became clearer, he found that he was in a strange place, one side was bright and dazzling, the other side was dark and deep, and he was between darkness and light, if his body was formless and uncertain, he could neither return to darkness nor integrate into light, but could only walk leisurely at the junction of light and darkness.
"Am I dead? It seems that the traverser is not always the protagonist's life! ”
Just as Jingzhen gave up her thoughts and was about to submit to the gravitational pull of darkness, first Tsuruko, Master Hirotaka, then Nagasaka Nobumasa, Mibuchi Fuji, Naito Masato, Yokota Takamatsu, then Takeda Shintora, Takeda Shingen, and even the uncle Niko who rarely met for a long time, and the new Mochizuki Chiyo...... The bonds forged in this life flashed one after another.
If there is a light flickering in the darkness, it will brighten up one by one, and Jingzhen will recognize that it is a little starlight. In the boundless darkness, the huge star map gradually became clear, Ziwei, Taiwei, Tianshi, Eastern Canglong, Western White Tiger, Southern Vermilion Bird, Northern Xuanwu, the faint stars with the number of constant sand, fighting and moving stars, never stopping.
Suddenly, the towering Southern Dipper suddenly lit up, like a ball of fire, stabbing him in the eye.
"Oops!" Jingzhen screamed, and the light, darkness, and stars disappeared suddenly, only to feel a void and fall into the abyss.
It seemed like a second, and then a century had passed, and finally, from a far, far away, a voice came: "Master Deben, is the condition of the injured better?" ”
A gentle male voice replied softer: "God and Buddha forbid, that arrow did not penetrate the vital point, and the 'abdominal cure' (note 1) has already worked. His Highness's high fever had already subsided, and he was generally out of danger. ”
Jingzhen wanted to open her eyes, but her eyelids were so heavy that she couldn't lift them. Why is it so hot? Probably the crane burned the stove too hot.
He struggled to lift his eyelids. However, there was a fire in my heart, so hot that I couldn't breathe.
"I want to drink water, I want to drink water!" Gradually, the thought of drinking water became clearer, and the stagnant consciousness slowly began to turn. He wanted to get up and drink enough immediately, but as soon as he tried to move his body, he immediately felt that his body no longer belonged to him, and he did not listen to the call at all.
The crane will bring the water soon. He was going to say to her, "I want to drink water." ”……
In the distance, there was a soft voice: "You (Note 2), bring some water!" ”
"Whose name is this?" Jingzhen tried her best to remember, but as soon as she used her brain, she fell into the dark abyss. He floated up from the abyss and remembered, "I want to drink water." ”
He heard the voice speak again: "Ruoden, this highness seems to have gradually regained consciousness. ”
Then, another soft female voice came to Jingzhen's ear, which seemed closer and clearer: "Lord Jingzhen, do you want to drink water?" ”
Then, Jingzhen's lips touched the smooth mouth of the cup and the nectar-like liquid. The fire in my heart gradually went out.
Satisfied, he whispered, "That's it......"
At the end of May, under the joint efforts of Keisada and Takeda Shingen, the Takeda army finally attacked and attacked Umi no Kou Castle, an important town in Saku Prefecture, on the night of the evacuation, and opened the gate to Shinano.
In this battle, the defender Hiraga Nariyori was shot by Takeda Shingen himself, and all the generals in the city died or surrendered, and the new generation of Shinano, known as the "Shino Sanjie", was also captured alive by the Jingzhen army.
But the biggest hero of this battle, Niko Jingzhen, blocked a cold arrow for Takeda Shingen, and he was unconscious for three days before regaining consciousness.
