I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan - Chapter 710: Ogata: "Go and destroy the battleships of England!" [Five thousand...

Popular recommendation:

Although he doubted the identity of this “goatee old monk”, Hasegawa knew that now was not the time to ask such a question, so he could only suppress his curiosity.

And after pretending not to know Hasegawa, Ogata turned his attention to… the Naichi family standing behind Hasegawa.

Looking at Zhizhou and Rushui, and the middle-aged woman whose facial features and Isshiki were very similar, Ogata’s face finally showed the first sincere smile of joy since attacking Koyasan.

“Master Yidaozhai…” Zhi Zhou whispered that only he could hear clearly.

After Ogata appeared, Zhizhou seemed to see the dazzling sunlight, buried his head and eyes low, and dared not look at Ogata for a long time.

Carefully raising his eyes, he glanced at Ogata for a while, and then quickly put his eyes down.

He dared not look at Ogata…

Don’t dare to look at this… the person who betrayed his whereabouts to Toyotomi…

Ogata now has a lot of things to say and a lot of things to tell Isshiki’s family.

But the heat wave that was constantly churning behind his back was like a talisman. After all the gossip poured into Ogata’s throat, it immediately got stuck.

“Master Yuan.” Ogata, who wanted to concentrate on the business, and then slowly deal with the rest, nodded to Zhizhou and the others, and said to Yuanyi seriously, “This is ?”

Ogata pouted towards Xuan Zheng, who was lying on Makimura’s back.

Since reuniting with Genichi and others, Ogata has noticed and has been curious about the identity of the old man.

As soon as his question fell, A-ding, who was standing beside him, lowered his voice, and Dai Yuanyi replied:

“This person… is the Xuanzheng we have been looking for for a long time.”

Ogata’s expression changed immediately.

“You are… that Xuan Zheng?”

He couldn’t help but scrutinize this old man who he and A-ding had been struggling to find from head to toe.

Xuan Zheng’s unkempt appearance… Compared with a decent doctor, he is more like an ordinary beggar.

Ogata is looking at Xuanzheng, and Xuanzheng is also looking at Ogata.

“One step… Oh, I remembered.” Xuan Zheng showed a sudden realization, “You are… that Ogata Ichitosai, right?”

“I’ve seen your portrait on the wanted notice before. Your portrait on the wanted notice is so well drawn, I immediately remembered who you are.”

Having said this, Xuan Zheng looked at Yuan Yi.

“Mr. Toyotomi Genichi, are you still with Ogata Ichitosai? This is really beyond my expectations…”

After speaking, Xuan Zheng’s eyes flashed thoughtfully.

Genichi ignored Xuanzheng’s words, but explained to Ogata intently:

“The cave behind us is connected to an underground prison dug by the Toyotomi clan. We found Hasegawa-kun and Miss Isshiki’s family in it, as well as this Xuanzheng. It’s a pity… We couldn’t find Xiaolin. Xiaolin is probably locked in the rest of the place…”

The source briefly introduced the situation on their side to Ogata.

From how they found out that Toyotomi was trying to remove the prisoners from the underground prison under their feet, all the way to how they reunited with Ogata.

After roughly understanding the situation on Shimogenichi and the others, Ogata said:

“Just now, when I attacked Xianyuan Temple according to the original plan, I saw a mountain fire suddenly burst out…”

Ogata summed up what he had just experienced in very simple sentences, and then he turned to look at the increasingly violent fire behind him: “Toyotomi… Now it’s clear that we want to give up Koyasan…”

Even in the modern age of the 21st century, such things as wildfires are extremely terrifying, and if they are not careful, they will lead to wildfires getting out of control.

Even in the 21st century with such advanced technology, it is extremely difficult to deal with wildfires, let alone ancient times.

In ancient times, if you wanted to put out a mountain fire that already had a certain scale, there were only two ways—

One: Waiting for the rainstorm and pouring it out with rain

Two: When the mountain fire burns to the point where there is nothing to burn, the flame will naturally go out.

Toyotomi dared to set Koyasan on fire directly, and released “mountain fires” that were simply uncontrollable “monsters”. That only means one thing – they have completely abandoned the stronghold of Koyasan!

Combining with what Genichi said just now, “Finding out that the Toyotomi Clan was transferring the prisoners in the prison”, Ogata is now 100% sure that the Toyotomi Clan intends to abandon Koyasan and lead the team to transfer from Koyasan.

“It was put together…” Yuan Yi’s voice was low.

Ogata and the others… Now it’s as if they were trying their best to throw a punch, but they hit the soft cotton.

In the face of the attacking Ogata and others, Toyotomi directly chose to avoid fighting, and released wildfires to delay the actions of Ogata and others, directly making Ogata and others passive.

“The Toyotomi clan on Koya Mountain … most of them have already evacuated now …” Ogata pursed his lips, then slowly raised his eyes and looked at Xuanzheng, “Master Yuan, you are taking this Xuanzheng After being rescued, did you ask anything of value from his mouth?”

As soon as Ogata’s question was raised, Genichi didn’t have time to answer when he heard Xuan Zheng’s gloomy “hoho” smile.

“Just now, I heard that Mr. Toyotomi Yuan has been sipping ‘Xiao Lin’ one by one. Your companion who was taken away… Could it be Xinxiu’s younger sister, Toyotomi Lin?”

“…You really know a lot. Not only me, but also Xiao Lin.” Yuan Yi said lightly, “What if our companion who was taken away is Xiao Lin?”

As soon as Yuan Yi’s voice fell, the corners of Xuan Zheng’s mouth immediately pulled upward in an extremely exaggerated arc.

“Hey, boy.” Xuanzheng turned his head and said to Hasegawa in a very impolite tone, “Let me confirm – you heard from the person who escorted you before: ‘Hurry up and bring them all to the shore. Go’ and ‘you’ll be taken to the East’, right?”

Being called “boy” by Xuan Zheng – such an impolite title, of course, made Hasegawa extremely unhappy.

“Yeah.” Hasegawa resisted the displeasure in his heart, “I’m sure I didn’t hear these two words wrong.”

“So it is, so it is…” The smile on Xuan Zheng’s face became more and more… strange, “So… do you know Ji Yi’s Cape Village?”

“Cape Village?” The one who murmured this doubt was neither from the “Ogata camp” nor from the “Gourd House camp”—it was the “goatee old monk” who was still lying on Ogata’s back. .

“But…that small mountain village in the southwest of Kii?”

“Oh…” Xuan Zheng cast an admiring look at “Old Goatee Monk”, “Old Monk, do you know that place?”

“A long time ago, I went to that place to practice Dharma.”

“That’s right, it’s that small mountain village in the southwest of Kii.” Xuan Zheng showed a gloomy smile that made people feel uncomfortable, “I suggest you all go to this small mountain village right now.”

“In order to facilitate the actions of the two ships, Hikki Maru and Hulu Maru, Nobuhide paid a lot of money to build a simple and secret dock in Japan.”

“And this secret shipyard is built in an inconspicuous strait adjacent to this small mountain village.”

“I’m sure – the Xiao Lin you’re looking for must be on her way to the second ship, ready to be sent to Edo.”

“You have to hurry up.”

“Rihui Maru and Hulu Maru are the most advanced warships bought from England, with both firepower and mobility.”

“At present, all over Japan, no ship can catch up with those two ships on the sea.”

“If you don’t get to the dock before the fleet sails…”

Xuan Zheng smiled sadly.

“Then you can only watch your Xiaolin being sent to Edo, and then thrown into Kanda Shangshui as a human pillar.”

“At that time, it’s not just your little Lin who will die miserably.”

“All the people of Edo are going to die.”

Ogata, A-machi, Genichi, Hasegawa, the old monk with the goatee… Everyone’s expressions suddenly changed as Xuanzheng said these words.

“What do you mean by Human Pillar?” Ogata took the lead with a stride and approached Xuanzheng, and hurriedly asked, “All the people of Edo are going to die, what does this mean?!”

…

…

Koyasan, at the foot of a very remote mountain.

“Tuk, tuk, tuk, tuk…”

Toyotomi Nobuhide lightly rubbed the mane of a white horse in front of him, and repeated “Tuk Tuk Tuk” with a very rhythmic frequency.

“Very good… Akon, that’s it. Calm down.”

Akang – the name of Toyotomi Nobuhide’s beloved horse.

Under the comfort of Toyotomi Nobuhide, Hakuba, who had become restless due to the raging wildfire, slowly became calm, and his breathing gradually became gentle.

However—just when Hakuba had just recovered his calm, a figure suddenly sprang from behind Toyotomi Nobuhide.

The figure that suddenly appeared, made the white horse, who had finally calmed down, be frightened and restless again.

“Yoshihisa.” Toyotomi Nobuhide cast an angry look at the figure who suddenly jumped out from behind him, “You made me have to start over to appease Akang again.”

“I am so sorry.”

Toyotomi Nobuhide didn’t bother much about this small mistake.

After simply complaining about Jijiu, he asked Jijiu:

“How is my sister?”

“Miss Toyotomi has been transferred smoothly.” Ji Jiu replied succinctly, “In a short while, Miss Toyotomi will probably be able to leave the boundary of Koya Mountain under the **** of the motorcade.”

“Good job.” Toyotomi Nobuhide’s mouth twitched in admiration.

“but…”

“But what?”

“Gao Qing… lost contact…”

Toyotomi Nobuhide comforted Hakuba’s hand.

“… Gao Qing probably had an accident.” Toyotomi Nobuhide said lightly, “Maybe it was attacked by Ogata Ichitozai… or my uncle…”

“It is impossible for Ogata Ichitosai to attack Koyasan alone.”

“Uncle, he must have been lurking somewhere in Koyasan, either preparing to attack Ogata Ichitosai back and forth, or… just waiting for me to find my stronghold in Koyasan when I sent a large team to attack Ogata Ichitosai. Location.”

“Forget it, if there is an accident on Gao Qing’s side, there will be an accident.”

“Anyway, Hasegawa and the others in that prison… are not people who can’t be abandoned.”

“As long as you can make sure that there are no accidents on my sister’s side.”

“…But…” Ji Jiu said solemnly at the moment, “Isn’t Xuan Zheng still locked in that prison? Don’t we try to take him away too?”

Toyotomi Nobuhide’s hand stroking the horse’s mane paused again.

“…Let him fend for himself.” Toyotomi Nobuhide said slowly with an expressionless face, “Look at what he looks like now…he will definitely not serve me again.”

“That being the case, let him do what he likes to do now, whether he is burned to death by the mountain fire, or escapes by chance, or is captured by Ogata Ichitosai and the others, let him go by himself.”

“I’m too lazy to take care of him anymore.”

“Lord Toyotomi.” Ji Jiu frowned, “Xuanzheng knows a lot of my secrets…”

“He knows all the details, including the Edo battle.”

“I’m just worried… If Ogata Ichitosai and the others find Xuanzheng, Xuanzheng will tell Ogata Ichitosai and the others too many secrets that I have been guarding for so long…”

“Humph.” Toyotomi Nobuhide smiled with a “hum” through his nostrils, “He can say what he wants.”

“At the moment when the Edo War is about to start, I’m not afraid to let people know our ‘secret’.”

When referring to the word “secret”, Toyotomi Nobuhide emphasized his tone.

“I understand… Mr. Toyotomi, there is one more thing to report to you.”

“Say.”

“I found Venerable Xianyuan. Venerable Master, he fled to the foothills not far from here just now, and smoothly merged with Chuan Jiulang’s team.”

“Oh!” Toyotomi Nobuyuki raised his brows and his eyes lit up, “Master, he escaped…I haven’t received any news from him for a long time. I thought something had happened to him.”

“Yes. But he looks a little embarrassed now, and his right foot seems to be slightly sprained from running too fast.”

“It’s good that people are still alive.”

At this time, Toyotomi Nobuhide had successfully calmed the mood of the white horse in front of him again.

I saw him get on his horse with a very neat movement.

“Let’s go, Jijiu.”

Toyotomi Nobuhide looked up at the sky where the dark clouds were getting thicker and thicker above his head.

“Quietly this sky, it’s about to rain heavily.”

“I’m going to hurry up and get to the dock before it rains.”

“I don’t want to be drenched in soup halfway through the journey.”

Jijiu: “Yes!”

…

…

Koyasan, somewhere at the foot of a mountain—

“Asai-senpai, won’t you sleep for a while?”

“Do you think I can fall asleep under such circumstances?”

“I’m not sleepy either…”

The two carriages that Mamiya got last night were quietly parked at the foot of this inconspicuous mountain.

Asai and Shimada were leaning against the walls of the two carriages.

Last night, the two knew that their combat power was greatly damaged after being injured, and it was difficult for them to play any role on the battlefield, so they volunteered and took the initiative to take on the task of driving.

Ogata and the others originally planned to have a few people who could drive take turns to change the car, so that everyone could take turns to rest.

However, in order to allow Ogata and others to have more time to rest, Asai and Shimada rejected the proposal of “changing the guards by turns”, and they each drove a car. With mental strength and willpower, he stayed up all night and sent Ogata and others to the foot of Koya Mountain.

After successfully sending everyone to Koyasan, Asai and Shimada thought about taking turns to sleep for a while, waiting for Ogata and the others to return, while supplementing the lack of physical strength due to staying up all night.

But who knows – just as their eyes were closed, they smelled a burning smell that was getting stronger and stronger…

Open your eyes and take a look – Koyasan, originally full of clear water and green trees, is surrounded by a sea of ​​fire…

Aroused by the sight in front of them and the smell on their noses, Asai and Shimada were completely drowsy.

Shimada, who still lacked determination due to his experience, has been asking Asai anxious questions since a while ago: What should we do now?

Koyasan was engulfed by a fire that seemed to scorch the sky – this was completely unexpected.

In the face of Shimada’s anxious question, Asai’s answer has always been concise and powerful: I’ll just wait here for Gen-sama and the others to come back.

Asai, who has seen far more storms and waves than Shimada, has always had a very clear understanding of their current status: at present, apart from continuing to stick here with people and vehicles, other than waiting for Ogata and his party to return, There is nothing else to do.

Despite Asai’s relief, Shimada couldn’t be as calm as Asai.

In order to calm his emotions as much as possible, Shimada put his hands on his eyes and looked around frequently.

He simply hoped that he could see the familiar figures return safely.

“Asai-senpai…”

“What’s the matter?”

“If… we can’t find the lord in Koyasan… what should we do?”

Asai didn’t even hesitate, and said directly:

“When the time comes, I will slowly think of a way. As long as you work hard to find a way, the solution is always more difficult than the difficulty.”

“If…the lord can’t be found…then what should I do?” Shimada’s mouth pulled down, and his neck shrank, his face was filled with worry and fear that he couldn’t hide.

“…Shimada, you’re always a pessimistic character, you really need to change it.” Asai gave Shimada a stern look with a complaining look, “Can’t you think of something more positive? ”

“Sorry… eh?”

Shimada’s eyes narrowed suddenly, and then he put his hands on his eyes with a “swoosh”.

He was staring intently at the woods to the northwest of them.

Immediately afterwards, the worry and fear that hung on his face turned into ecstasy.

“Asai-senpai! Min-sama and Ogata-senpai are back!”

Hearing Shimada’s words, Asai, who was leaning against the wall of the car, closed his eyes and rested, immediately jumped up.

“Where?”

“there!”

Asai looked in the direction Shimada pointed his finger at—as soon as he cast his sight, Asai has far better eyesight than Shimada, he was immediately stunned: “Why is Hasegawa Heizo here…? What happened to this number of people? thing…?”

Before Ogata and the others entered the mountain, UU read www.uukanshu. com has a total of less than 10 people.

And when they return now, they have become a big team.

Ogata carries an old monk on his back…

Makimura is carrying an old man covered in dirt like a beggar…

Behind them is a large group led by Hasegawa…

While Asai was still staring at the inexplicably large team with astonished eyes, Genichi, who ran at the front, shouted at Asai and Shimada from a distance:

[The book chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend who I have known for ten years, Mimi read! It’s so easy to use, I rely on this reading aloud to pass the time before driving and before going to bed, you can download it here]

“Asai! Shimada! Ready to go!”

Genichi’s loud shout made Asai recover from his astonishment.

He didn’t go to Yuan Yi to ask “Where are we going now?” or something else.

The source told them to get ready to go right away – all he had to know was that.

Asai jumped into the “driver’s seat” without saying a word, tightening the reins.

Although Shimada also followed Asai and jumped into the driver’s seat of the carriage he was in charge of, he didn’t have Asai’s determination, so he couldn’t help but ask Chaoyuan aloud:

“Master Yuan! Where are we going?”

Yuan opened his mouth and seemed to be ready to answer Shimada’s question.

Ke Yuanyi just had time to open his mouth, and Xu Fang, who was beside him, took the lead and answered on his behalf:

“Go and destroy the English ships!”
