During the Warring States period in Japan, when it comes to "Fenglin Volcano", people will naturally think of Takeda Shingen, after all, he hung these four words on his military flag as a symbol.And the origin of these four words, I think many people also know, is that in "Sun Tzu's Art of War: Military Struggle", "its speed is like the wind, its speed is like a forest, the invasion is like fire, the immobility is like a mountain, the difficulty is like yin, and the movement is like thunder", that is, the six metaphors of "wind", "forest", "fire", "mountain", "yin" and "thunder" constitute this complete concept.Tonight, the members of the "Joint Assassination Team" who came to assassinate Nobunaga wore masks of six different colors and divided the personnel into six teams: wind, forest, fire, mountain, yin, and thunder.Among them......
The white demon mask represents [Wind] - The members of the Wind Squad are basically ninjas, and their main duty is to sweep the garrison around the Flower Palace as quickly as possible.The green mask represents [Lin] - the Lin team is the largest in number, and the composition of the personnel is also more mixed, from ronins to thugs to killers, their duty is to cover the actions of other groups, and they will go to support wherever they need manpower.The Red Tengu Mask represents [Fire] - The members of the Fire Squad are mostly wrestlers and sturdy warriors, who are responsible for launching frontal raids on the enemy's most heavily defended areas.The Golden Trick Mask represents [Mountain] - there is only one person wearing this mask, he is the number one master in this joint assassination team, and with him, it is equivalent to having a "hole card" in charge.The black street mask represents [Yin] - the members of the Yin squad are all charlatans, street performers, and even thieves, and there are not many of them, but each of them has several unique skills, and they are good at attacking the enemy unprepared and winning by surprise.And the final blue dance mask, representing [Thunder] - the members of the Thunder squad are mainly lower-level samurai, most of these people come from those decaying families, all of them are good at martial arts, and want to rely on this ability to get ahead, their numbers are medium, comprehensive and solid, it can be said that they are the real main force of this assassination operation.Seeing this, some people will probably be curious: Who is the mastermind of this operation?
If you can arrange the people from the ten forces in such an orderly manner, you must not be an idle person.We won't sell it here, anyway, it's not hard to guess......
That man was Mashan Shigezo.It is worth mentioning that the Chongzang Society has to take on the responsibility of this "action planning", and in fact, there are some selfish motives in it......
We all know that Shigezo was supposed to come to Kyoto with Gengoro, Aeda, and Kosuke's three subordinates to participate in the mission, but after all kinds of accidents, Gengoro died, and Aeda was seriously injured......
That Shigezo definitely didn't want his subordinates to die in vain.Therefore, he took the initiative to stand up in the preparation stage of the mission, proposed this plan called "Wind Forest Volcano", and tried to gain on-site command of the operation.Others pondered: Shigezo is a Takeda person, and Takeda is one of the strongest of these ten forces, and may not even be one of them; In addition, the plan of Chongzang Ti does sound really good, and the command position is both a credit position and a blame position, so there is a certain risk......
After weighing it up, everyone agreed that Shigezo would take the lead in the operation.Na Shigezo unceremoniously took over the command, and arranged for Ah Zhi and Kosuke to only "alert" the movement in the city a few blocks away when they acted; He himself joined the "Wind Squad" and was responsible for leading the whole situation in the high places on the outskirts of the palace.But it's the so-called coincidence that there is no book.,Maybe it's because of the tacit understanding between the upper ninja.,The observation place in the recollection tonight is the same as the one that Xiaomei picked during the day.。
So, just as the six squads were operating at the same time, and the flower palace was in a fight, Shigezo happened to be on a roof near the palace and faced Xiaomei Feikite.Ping Pong - After a sneak attack from behind was blocked, the two of them each jumped backwards and regrouped.Under the moonlight, Chongzang immediately saw Xiaomei's face clearly, and although Xiaomei only saw a person wearing a white mask, after the knife confrontation just now, he had actually guessed who the other party was."
HO~ It's really an accident to meet here again......"
After a short period of surprise, Xiaomei spoke first.But Shigezo did not speak, and there was no further movement."
Now I want to come here......
Xiaomei figured out a lot of things in just a few seconds, "It turns out that you and your subordinates came to Kyoto to do this." ”Chongzang was silent for a few seconds before he spoke in a solemn tone, "If you were me, what would I do now?"
”"Hmm......"
Xiaomei muttered, and then said, "You're wearing a mask." ”This sounds like an answer, but Shigezo instantly understands what the other party means."
That's right."
Shizo Road."
Then I probably didn't see what you looked like."
Xiaomei Road."
I don't see it."
Shizo Road."
Then I'll leave here now, and no matter how you end tonight, forget about this conversation between the two of us......
What do you think?
”Mei continued, "Can you forget that I was here?"
”"Yes."
Shigezo was also very satisfied with Mei's proposal.Obviously, neither of these two people is sure that they will be able to defeat the other, and they are not wronged, so it is indeed the best choice to take a step back now.Some people may ask, does Xiaomei leave regardless of the life or death of Sun and Huang?
Isn't this nonsense?
He has to manage it even if he wants to.The previous raid on the Zhengxing Sect was a chivalrous act, and at that time they were in the dark and the enemy was in the light, they had the first opportunity, and they could advance or retreat, which was worth a shot; And now that they are accidentally involved in a political assassination, and the two gangs in the palace have already entered a combat state, if Xiaomei forcibly rushes in to save people at this time, the people on both sides will regard him as an enemy, and I am afraid that Shuang Harmonic will have to save him at that time.Therefore, Xiaomei might as well retreat quickly, and then pray that Shuang Harmonic can survive this catastrophe on her own."
Oh yes......"
But before leaving, Xiaomei still left a sentence, "Sun Sang and Huang Sang are also at the banquet in the Oda now, I think I should tell you about this......
Well, there will be a period later. ”After that, he didn't wait for Chongzang's reply, and hurriedly slipped away, looking like he was afraid that the other party would change his hexagram.But Chongzang was tightened by his words......
He wasn't worried that he would break his original sentence "If you have the opportunity to repay the kindness of the two in the future", after all, this is the scene; Moreover, since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness have been in a dilemma, just like when he changed the object of allegiance for the sake of "righteousness", now he can also give up "righteousness" for the sake of "loyalty......
This will not make him too much of a psychological burden.What really made Shigezo's heart uneasy and his brows furrowed was that he vaguely felt that the double harmony might become a variable or even a resistance to this assassination.And his conjecture came true once again......
At the same moment, in the banquet hall of the Flower Palace, the Twin Harmonic had easily helped the people of the Oda Army gain the upper hand.To the two of them, even the assassins of the "Thunder Squad" were just a group of elite miscellaneous soldiers who were a little more powerful than the miscellaneous soldiers, and they both seemed to be at ease with their bare hands here.If you want to say that the enemy who is the most threatening to the double harmony, it is the guy in the black mask, because when this thing is about to lose, he simply took off the mask, tried to sprinkle a handful of lime powder first, and then combined with the fire fold and mouth squirt wine to bring a wave of fire AOE to the room......
Fortunately, Sun Yihuan is extremely sensitive to this kind of yin trick, as soon as the lime powder in the black mask made a move, Brother Sun swept what the opponent's hands were doing with his small eyes that were basically immune to lime powder attacks, and instantly guessed what the other party's second half of the move was.said that it was too late, that was fast, at that moment, but seeing that Sun Yihong lowered his center of gravity, he took two steps in a row, and Lei Ben walked close to the other party's side.At the moment when the other party poured wine into his mouth and raised the fire fold......
Sun Yihuan raised his hand and slapped the fire fold into the other party's mouth.Then there was a "whoosh" sound, and a ball of fire erupted from between the assassin's teeth and tongue, heading straight into his face.Not to mention that Brother Sun is still benevolent, he didn't let the other party suffer anymore, and a second later, he put a move on the chin of the goods, and helped the other party close his chin with a palm attack that was almost an inch.Although the bones of the other party's jaw were shattered at that time, the mouth was indeed closed, and when the mouth was closed, there was no oxygen in the mouth, and the fire was extinguished in an instant.As for the burning of the hot wine in his throat by swallowing it, it was a minor problem, because before he could feel the pain in his mouth and throat, he had been cut down to the ground by the Oda samurai who had surrounded him, and died under the sword.Most of the other assassins who broke into the house also ended up in this way after being casually put down by Sun Huang.What?
You ask, why is Twin so active in helping Nobunaga defend against the enemy at this moment?
Isn't that clear?
As we said in our last book, the time when these assassins came in happened to be shortly after Takasuke Hosokawa personally served food to Nobunaga; In other words, Hosokawa was near Nobunaga's seat at this moment......
The gang of assassins came in and cut people when they saw them, and they approached Nobunaga all the way, and if this pair of harmonies were left alone, Hosokawa would be hacked to death nine times out of ten, and their clues to find the dragon would be broken.Therefore, the two of them are also non-stop - they have already been involved with these assassins, so they will simply settle this matter completely.After they got it, they sold Nobunaga a big favor, which not only resolved Nobunaga's temptation, but also allowed them to move more freely in the imperial palace in the future."
AhhAt this time, Huang Donglai immediately noticed that something was wrong......
"The fighting sound in the courtyard outside just now was louder than in the house, why is there no movement at all now?"
”Huang Donglai, as the person with the best ear skills in this room, immediately became suspicious.When Nobunaga heard this, he also showed a hint of nervousness, because he knew that the group of soldiers wearing armor, armed with long weapons and even muskets outside this banquet hall at this moment were much stronger than the retainers in the room who did not wear armor and only carried katanas, and the number was not very large.In the previous document, we also explained that in ancient times, armored and unarmored troops were fundamentally two concepts, and this gap is more obvious in Japan, a place that does not pay much attention to internal forces, or closer to the real universe as we know it.The original plan of Shigezo was also to let the men and horses outside drag those Oda Army escort soldiers, and then a small number of people broke into the house to complete the assassination within this time window, not to say that the entire Oda Army in the Imperial Palace was wiped out.But now, when all the assassins who rushed into the house were wiped out, there was no movement outside the house, which was very strange."
Or ......
Brother Huang, go out and have a look?
”Sun Yi's words were not at all unexpected by Huang Donglai."
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
You stay in the house to cover me, and protect everyone by the way, right?"
Huang Donglai didn't need to ask, he knew that Sun Yihui would definitely use this as a loan next......
When the reason to stay in the house."
You're right, Brother Huang, it's up to you."
Sun Yihuan even admitted happily on his face."
Hmph......"
Huang Donglai snorted coldly, and then went out from the big hole in the wall.There was a sentence in his stomach, "If you have the surname Sun, wait for death", although it was not spoken, Sun Yihuan seemed to have heard it, and he didn't care much.A few seconds later, Huang Donglai had already passed through the hole in the wall, stepped over the courtyard corridor, and stepped into the courtyard of the Flower Palace.And at this moment, the scene that greeted his eyes was not much different from what he imagined, but it was ......
The cold moon shines between the clouds, and the frost and night dew are slightly cold.The bloody wreckage is slaughtered.The man in the golden mask, holding a narrow katana in his hand, stood alone among the messy corpses of severed limbs everywhere, as if waiting for something.Seeing Huang Donglai approaching him, he just said coldly: "Is Nobunaga dead?"
”"It's dead~" Huang Donglai replied loudly, and Nobunaga himself in the house heard it, "It's really real, it's all chopped, and his mother can't recognize it when she comes, so you can admit it, go back with peace of mind." ”"Heh......"
Golden Mask naturally heard that Huang Donglai was lying, he just didn't expect that the other party's attitude was calm like a master, but his words and deeds were so small, which made him laugh contemptuously.Before the laughter was over, the golden mask had already swung out a slash with his hand, and an invisible slash immediately flew sideways towards Huang Donglai's throat.If this move is hit, Huang Donglai will undoubtedly be in a different place.Of course, after seeing these corpses on the ground, Huang Dongzi already knew that the opponent was a character who could use this kind of long-range slash, and he must be on guard.In the next second, I saw Huang Donglai lightly pick up a ninja knife on the ground with his foot, and quickly threw this not too long blade forward to meet the opponent's slash.With a strange sound, the ninja knife flew out sideways and landed again.But the slash of the Golden Mask was also dissolved without a trace."
Oh?
I didn't expect you to be such a master......"
In addition to surprise, the tone of the golden mask actually had some surprise, "Heh......
That's right, the famous Oda Nobunaga, there are one or two people like you by your side, and it should be. ”As he spoke, he finally changed his original relaxed and casual stance and made a real attack stance, "Then you can come and have fun with me." ”
