Chapter 116 Day 7 (9)
As night falls, the moon rises in the west, and the watery moonlight gently shines on the land.
At this time, California Qingguang, who was far away from the Genlai Temple, was lying on the table bored, without the style of a general, but since there were no other outsiders here, he didn't have to hide his desire to "be paralyzed for a while".
"I miss Master so much..." he said weakly, "I don't know if she ate on time, if she went to bed obediently at this point, and if that old bastard Sanriyue took advantage of the opportunity, in case even Yingwan was killed What can he do if he fools around, and Tsurumaru Kuninaga's timed bomb, who looks like he has to blow it twice at any time to be happy..."
Jiro Tachi on the side was already lying down, and a drunken voice came from under the table, a little dull, "Worry so much, be careful of getting old."
"Hey!" California Qingguang's face paled when he heard the words... Oh no, his current appearance can't be considered a "fairy face" at all. If he took off the red scarf, he wouldn't even have the courage to look in the mirror.
"You don't need to worry too much about Jia, California Palace." At this moment, Wu Hutui came in with the wine bottle that had just been warmed. Both Maru and Mikazukiden are very reliable seniors."
That's right, it's because both of them are too reliable that California Qingguang is afraid that when he is not around, the two of them will take advantage of the opportunity to compete for jealousy and end up benefiting outsiders.
However, just when everyone's thoughts were ups and downs, Zong Sanzuo's words came in, exuding the temperament of "unhappy", "super unhappy", and "I'm going to kill someone".
California Qingguang looked at him in surprise, but before he could ask a question, Jiro Tachi put one hand on the tatami, while propping up his upper body, he looked drunkenly at Fu Sangshen with long pink hair, "What's the matter, what happened today? Are you bothered? Let's have a drink or two, Sozo."
Although Zongzo looked very displeased, he turned his head to express his gratitude to Odachi who invited him to drink.
"Thank you for your kindness, Jiroden." He raised the bamboo tube in his hand, and his slender eyelashes cast a faint shadow on his face, "But I have brought some bad news, so I'm afraid everyone can't Keep drinking happily."
"The master used the highest level of communication... to issue a new military order to us."
The bright moonlight shone on the dirt road in the mountains, covering the old loess road with a layer of silvery white frost.
The crisp sound of the horse's hooves spread far away, but the rider was a little absent-minded. Fortunately, the horses made of sword outfits were of excellent quality, and there would be no such tragedy of running around at night and throwing people off.
Yasuhara Tokiha lay on the horse's back and grasped the reins, almost sticking his whole body to the mane on the back of the black horse's neck, so that he did not fall off.While gazing at the scenery of the mountains and forests that were swiftly passing to the rear on both sides, she thought about waiting for her retainers to come to her tomorrow morning, only to find that the lord Yunge Chuanzheng had already shed her shell in the middle of the night with her beloved cat (Mikazuki Zongjin) and her eldest son (Firefly Maru) slipped away together, will it fry the pot.
Since the natural resources along the way were not developed at this time, these forest trees looked like goblins and ghosts in the dark. Although the moonlight made everyone see a little bit more clearly, it did not erase its mystery.For a while, the rumors and stories about monsters in the mountains and forests that the god judge had heard when he was a child suddenly recalled.
"Hotaru," she turned her head to avoid the oncoming wind, or rather, to prevent the wind from blowing head-on so that she could not speak, "Do you know the legends about those monsters in the mountains?"
"Huh?" Hotaru was a little far away from her, coupled with the loud noise, he couldn't hear it clearly, "Is the lord referring to the legend of fireflies?"
Eh?What is the legend about fireflies?
About the legend of fireflies... If you have to pull out one, Yasuhara probably can only think of "Forest of Fireflies", so she just mentioned it casually.
Unexpectedly, Hotaru felt that the journey was a bit boring. As soon as he heard that Yasuhara Tokiha had a story, he wanted to listen to it, and Mikazuki also said that it would be okay to listen to it hahaha.
There was no way, the judge could only speak in a few words.
"Once upon a time there was a little girl who was spending her summer vacation in the country, and one day in the woods she met a boy wearing a mask. The origin of the boy was very mysterious, and he made the little girl never touch her body because he was originally He is an outcast of human beings, and was later adopted by the mountain god, as the price of surviving, he cannot touch human beings."
"As time went by, the girl gradually grew into a lovely young girl, but she still went back to visit her mysterious and lonely friend every year, and fell in love with him unknowingly. But because both of them Can't touch each other, so the whole love story is very restrained and gentle."
Hearing this, the white-haired Zhengtai still looked forward to it, "And then?"
"Then the two of them participated in the summer festival together and confessed to each other. The boy was met by a passing human bear child. So he turned around, gave the girl a hug with his last life, and turned into a firefly. Dissipated under the fireworks on that summer night." Yasuhara Tokiha said dryly, "How is it, is it related to the legend of fireflies?"
Hotaru & Mikazuki: ...
I don't know how Mikazuki thinks about this story, anyway, Hotaru felt that the firefly under his white shirt was frozen into a ball by this sad story.At this moment, the old man looked down at the Taidao hanging on the side of the saddle, and always felt that the stupid crane also felt the power of the story.
After all, the story was too different from what they expected.It was already very cold to gallop on horseback at such a late night, and the interrogator once again brought into play his excellent talent of telling cold jokes, forcing the atmosphere to a new freezing point.
Just when the atmosphere was about to drop to a lower temperature, suddenly a dusty cavalry galloped up ahead, and the God Judge recognized him as one of the soldiers in swords who had been sent out to observe the enemy's marching speed.
"What's the matter?" she asked, reining in her horse, and finally turned her attention from those super-cold stories to the real business.
The two Sword Fusangshen on the side were even more secretly relieved.
The soldiers reported the situation in a simple and clear manner. An Yuan spread out the simple map he carried with him, and found that the group of them was only three or four miles away from the ambush point, and the enemy army was still at least twenty miles away.
"There should be enough time." Hotaru leaned over and commented, "But we still need to speed up a bit."
They had to get there earlier, before the enemy reached the valley.
An Yuan had already dismounted at this time, she sat on the saddle set up by others, took out the western pocket watch in her arms, wanted to use the moonlight to check the time, but was surprised to find that there was a large black cloud covering the bright moon at some point above her head.
Anyone who passes by here will be frightened by this group of unlit torches and silent troops in the dark.They are like scarecrows standing in the rice fields in the dark, seemingly invisible, only when the wind blows, they reveal their frightening true faces.
To be honest, the judge himself was a little scared.
After all, she had never experienced night battles, and she never thought that in this era of cold weapons where the success rate of night battles is extremely low, her sword soldiers can still advance in the dark and arrive at their respective ambush locations with incomparable precision.
And she, as the coach, just needs to shout 666 in the stable rear.No wonder those famous ancient generals had at least one or two elite soldiers in their hands. When encountering such a difficult battlefield mission, it would be no big problem to send them directly - because they are so easy to use.
By the way, Yasuhara-san didn't want to climb the mountain late at night. It would be ridiculous if one of the valleys didn't even have steps and roads.
Sanriyue and the others were also afraid that she would fall down the valley by mistake and die before leaving the army, so they simply placed the main formation on the plain, and the cavalry on both wings watched the direction of the valley calmly.
"Report—the enemy army is still five miles away from the valley!"
The outpost dressed in black suddenly appeared in front of her. Yasuhara Tokiha had been in this world for at least two months, so he knew what to say.
"Continue to investigate."
"Yes!" The outpost soldier bowed and left.
"Report—the enemy vanguard ninjas have already marched towards the valley, and there is a possibility of exposure. Please tell us how we should deal with it!"
"Ambush as much as possible before our army is discovered by the enemy ninjas. If they are exposed, they will be killed immediately." Yasuhara said blankly. At the same time, his hands were folded on the end of the handle of the knife, but his eyes were always looking at the soldier.
"Eliminate the eyes and ears of the enemy army as much as possible."
"Yes!"
"Report—the enemy army is still three miles away from the valley!"
"Explore again!"
"Yes!"
Watching the third spy leave, Sankai Yuezongjin asked her with a smile, "Speaking of which, this should be the first time that the lord personally directs a specific battle. How does it feel?"
Yasuhara Tokiha tilted his head and thought for a while: "It feels like playing a strategy game."
"Hahahaha, grandpa, I want to play games too."
"If there is a chance later, I will get you a ps4 console and controller, so that you can play to your heart's content." Yasuhara said generously, since it's something that can't be realized anyway, no matter how much you promise, it won't matter.
San Riyue nodded enthusiastically, "Then I will thank the little girl first."
It's not that he didn't know that what he got was a blank check, but what if?If a bad check cannot be cashed, is there still no possibility that one of the hundred can be cashed?
"Ah, I'm so envious, I want to play with it too." Tsurumaru Kuninaga's voice suddenly came from the Taidao, he likes novelty things, especially this kind of modern objects that sound fun at first sight.
However, Yasuhara obviously didn't treat him as gently as he treated the old man. She poked the ground with the scabbard of the later national treasure, "Be quiet, Tsurumaru-kun, forget what we agreed before we set off—don't use it!" Is it the matter of the blade speaking?"
"I didn't promise that kind of thing." He Qiu's voice was aggrieved, maybe it had something to do with him being forced to go out for a walk, "You forced me back."
"It's so noisy, if you continue to make noise, our promise about [one person reaches one country] will be voided."
Tsurumaru Kuninaga didn't dare to speak anymore, he felt very wronged, but he was used to being wronged, so after a while he felt nothing - at least now he could come out to breathe, instead of squatting in the dungeon and playing with building blocks.
Just when several people were arguing without saying a word, a group of faint sparks suddenly lit up at the top of the valley.It flashed away, like fireworks bursting from the muzzle of a firecracker, accompanied by harsh sounds, echoing in the night sky.
Hotaru noticed first, "Master, look over there!"
"What's going on?!" Yasuhara Tokiha jumped up from the horse involuntarily, "Hasn't the enemy army completely entered the ambush circle? Which fool took the lead!"
Then her previous series of anticipated battle plans... What is the use of it!
Facts have proved that this is not important anymore, because once the enemy army senses that there is a difference ahead, if they stop or simply turn around and run away, then she spent almost two hours setting up an ambush in the valley and preparing cavalry on the plain. What is the meaning of shock!And once the valley's mechanism is used, the entire valley will be blocked, so the cavalry on her side will not be able to rush over... Wouldn't it just give the enemy a chance to escape?
How can you bear this!
And the outpost who rushed over also reported the situation, and it was indeed as she expected, and the Satake army on the other side of the valley was also shocked—it never expected that the Yunge Chuanzheng would actually come up with a new army.
At the same time, they are also arguing fiercely whether to advance or retreat.In the end, Yoshishige Satake, as the general, decided not to enter the valley, but to set up a position at the mouth of the valley, and then give the opponent a head-on blow.
Satake Yoshishige galloped back and forth in front of the team on horseback to boost morale.After all, after driving for a day and a half, everyone is very tired, and now I just heard that there is an ambush ahead?Morale inevitably declined somewhat.
"I also know that you have worked hard, but I ask you to persevere and be patient! You must know that the enemy's hastily gathered troops must not be as many as ours!"
The examiner turned his head and glanced at the eastern sky, and found that there were already some signs of fish belly.
Although she didn't know that the enemy's combat plan had changed at the moment, her intuition reminded her that she had to hurry up—so Yasuhara Tokiha gritted his teeth, and carried the phone that was still screaming "Ah, ah, where are you going?" Tai Dao rushed out of the formation without hesitation and got on his horse.
"Come on, send me a military order! Now our ambush is exposed, and the enemy has already noticed the intention of ambush! In this case, I will send an order-all sword soldiers in the valley, except for ranged soldiers, all horses will go down to me Jump!"
The one who jumps first will definitely die, but the one who jumps behind may not be sure... This is also the fastest way to get from the top of the valley to the bottom.
It's just that the expressions of the two fusangshen who were following her immediately changed when they heard the military order.
This is also thanks to the fact that the soldiers in swords will definitely execute any reasonable and unreasonable orders. If they were replaced by humans, they would definitely quit.
However, that was only the first one. The judge suddenly pulled out the sword. The black sword had traces of veins like blood, reflecting the color of the dark clouds in the night sky.
"So shy!" Tsurumaru, who was suddenly used by someone, couldn't help but yelled, because he and Oda Nobutada were friends in the name of master and servant, and no one would just wave their friends' heads around.
"Shut up!" Yasuhara Tokiha pressed back with a louder voice, "——all the cavalry obeyed the order and launched an uninterrupted suicide attack to the opposite side of the valley at the fastest speed! Even if it is to kill, kill it for me !"
