Chapter 2358 Zhao Zilong VS Yamata no Orochi
Chapter 2354: Zhao Zilong VS Yamata no Orochi
“Where has Yamata no Orochi escaped to now?”
Zhou Yu asked with a serious face, his eyes full of fear.
“Now Yamata no Orochi has fled into Chikugo Kingdom and is continuing to flee in the direction of Chikuzen Kingdom. The three generals Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Huang Zhong are pursuing them with all their strength, but no trace of him has been found yet.”
"It's not enough. There are many roads leading to Chikuzen. General Dianwei and others may not be able to catch up. Even if they catch up, they may not be able to leave Yamata no Orochi behind."
At this point, Zhou Yu's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he said with murderous intent: "Just in case, let the two generals Lu Bu and Zhao Yun go with them. Even if they chase to the Wei State, Baqi must be captured." Big snake kills.”
)
Zhou Yu dispatched such a luxurious lineup to deal with Yamata no Orochi alone, not entirely to avenge Sun Ce, but more to nip this threat in the bud.
Since Zhou Yu led the army to conquer Japan, apart from a few elites, most of the opponents he encountered along the way were rotten fish and shrimps. Therefore, he naturally thought that the Japanese country, with its small country and few people, could not be cultivated at all. What kind of master is there?
What Zhou Yu didn’t expect was that Kyushu, a country where even the divine generals were incomparable, would actually have Yamata no Orochi, the **** of war.
There is a whale in the small pond. This is simply unreasonable!
The fact that Yamata no Orochi was able to defeat many famous generals such as Sun Ce and Yue Yun in a row, and that he escaped alone from Southern Kyushu to Northern Kyushu under the pursuit of ten thousand troops, is enough to prove his strength.
Even today's Qin army, probably only Lu Bu and Zhao Yun can defeat Yamata no Orochi one-on-one, let alone the three kingdoms of Wei, Song and Wu.
A warrior of this level is worthy of Zhou Yu's serious treatment.
Lü Bu and Zhao Yun were a little surprised when they received Zhou Yu's order. They were just alone. Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Huang Zhong were all gone. Is it necessary for them to also take action?
But after learning about Yamata no Orochi's record, both of them also understood why Zhou Yu went to war. This person was indeed qualified for them to take action.
"It's been almost a month since I came to Japan, and I haven't met anyone who can fight. Now one finally appears. Zilong, you can't **** it from me." Lu Bu said to Zhao Yun.
After unexpectedly discovering that Xiang Yu, his old rival, was still alive and had reached a higher level, Lu Bu was not satisfied with the progress of his cultivation.
Although his strength has been rising steadily over the years, it has been too steady and there has been no qualitative leap. The reason for this is because Lu Bu has lost the goal of catching up.
Although Li Cunxiao and Sun Lingming are stronger than Lu Bu, Lu Bu has no intention of competing with them. In his mind, Xiang Yu is the only one he wants to catch up with.
Lü Bu saw Xiang Yu fall off the cliff with his own eyes and believed that he was dead. After losing the goal he was striving to pursue, his training in martial arts naturally slowed down.
But now it was discovered that Xiang Yu was still alive, which made Lu Bu's cooled blood start to burn again.
He also wanted to fight Xiang Yu, but with his current strength, it was impossible for him to be Xiang Yu's opponent, so he decided to work hard to become stronger.
For generals like Lu Bu, the best way to become stronger is to fight against masters, so he set his sights on Yamata no Orochi.
Although Zhao Yun also wanted to fight Yamata no Orochi, he obviously would not fight with Lu Bu due to his gentle nature, so he smiled and said, "Okay, Fengxian, if you meet this person, Yun will never interfere."
"Okay, that's settled." Lu Bu said with a smile.
After Lu Bu and Zhao Yun packed their bags, they set off from Hizen Country alone.
Red Rabbit Horse and Yezhao Jade Lion are both famous horses that travel thousands of miles. Their location is not far from Chikugo Kingdom, and it only took a few hours to arrive at Chikugo Country.
At this time, the Chikugo Kingdom had entered a state of complete lockdown. All major roads were guarded by soldiers, and portraits of the Yamata-no-Orochi were posted, as if they would not stop until they killed it.
“Have you found any traces of Yamata no Orochi?” Lu Bu asked.
Yu Jin scratched his head and replied truthfully: "This person has a very strong anti-tracking ability, and he did not leave any clues except the initial traces.
However, the entire Chikugo Kingdom is now blocked. As long as he is still in Chikugo Kingdom, he will never be able to escape the capture of our army. "
"That's good."
Lu Bu nodded, and the fighting spirit in his eyes became more and more intense.
Yamata no Orochi, I hope you can please me.
“Report to General Qi that traces of the Yamata-no-Orochi were found in Seifukuji Castle.”
“Okay, I’ll rush over here.”
After Lu Bu roared loudly, he rode away with his halberd, and in the blink of an eye he was gone.
Zhao Yun couldn't help but shook his head when he saw this, but soon realized something was wrong.
If the Yamata no Orochi appears in Seifukuji Castle, it will definitely go in the direction of Tosu Castle and then enter Chikuzen Province.
But this is the only way to pass through Chiqian State. The Qin army has already set up a net here to wait. Will Yamata no Orochi be stupid enough to take the initiative to send it to his door?
Zhao Yun feels that this possibility is very small, and he also has a strong feeling.
The reason why Yamata no Orochi was exposed in Seifukuji Castle may have been intentional, in order to mislead those who were chasing him, thinking that he would take the route from Fukudera Castle to Tosu Castle and enter Chikuzen Province, but in fact But he took other ways to escape.
Zhou Yu has actually analyzed Yamata no Orochi's ultimate escape target, and it must be the Kanmon Strait in Bunzen Province.
Now that Kyushu Island is basically in the hands of the allied forces conquering Japan, the Yamata-no-Orochi has offended the Qin, Song and Wu Kingdoms. If it still stays in Kyushu, it will die sooner or later.
But it is not easy for him to leave Kyushu. After all, except for the Japanese Allied Forces, there are no ships anywhere else in Kyushu.
Even if Yamata no Orochi could **** the ship, he couldn't sail it away by himself. Moreover, he didn't know where the Japanese navy was located.
So, for Yamata no Orochi, the only way to leave Kyushu is to swim directly to Honshu or Shikoku.
It is too far to swim from Kyushu to Shikoku. Even though Yamata no Orochi is strong enough to swim there, he may be overtaken by the enemy's navy midway.
So, relatively speaking, it is safer to swim to Honshu, and the closest place in Kyushu to Honshu is naturally the Kanmon Strait.
At the beginning, after the defeat of Motoharu Mouri, his first reaction was to flee to the Kanmon Strait, with the idea of swimming back to the main state. Unfortunately, he was caught due to Zhao Yun's prediction.
Yama no Orochi did not know that Zhao Yun was capturing Motoharu Moto in the Kanmon Strait, and the way he escaped from Kyushu was to swim back to Honshu Island through the Kanmon Strait.
In this regard, I can only say that smart people think the same thing.
“Chikuzen Province is not the only road to Bungo Country. You can go from Sefukuji Castle to Akizuki Castle, and then take Hikuma Castle to Bungo Country. You can also take a detour to Bungo Country.”
Thinking of this, Zhao Yun had already made a decision in his mind, and he decided to go to Hikuma Castle to try his luck.
Although he had no intention of competing with Lu Bu for credit, and he was not sure of his guess, if he guessed it right, with him on the front line of Hikuma Castle, at least he would not let go of the hidden danger of Yamata no Orochi. "shelf."
With this thought, Zhao Yun decisively rode away and went to Hikuma Castle to guard the Yamata-no-Orochi.
Yamata no Orochi, who was being hunted by the three kingdoms of Qin, Song and Wu, was on his way to Hikuma Castle.
Zhao Yun's guess was absolutely correct. The traces of Shifukuji Castle were indeed exposed intentionally by Yamata no Orochi in order to mislead those who were chasing him.
Not only is Yamata no Orochi not stupid, but he is also very smart. Knowing that there is a trap in the direction of Chikuzen, he will naturally not take the initiative to send it to his door.
But he was not the only smart person, and Zhao Yun saw through his intentions.
On the path passing through Hikuma Castle, some embarrassed Yamata-no-Orochi cursed angrily with a look of resentment: "Sun Ce, you dishonest guy, and these two villains Zhao Guangyi and Zhou Yu, you all deserve to die."
Yama no Orochi felt that he was very unlucky. In order to escape the pursuit of the Oda family, he fled to Kyushu and lived in seclusion. He has been very honest these years and has not come out to cause trouble.
You must know that Yamata no Orochi used to be a murderous butcher, and countless people died at his hands. Now that he is so honest, his enemies should burn high incense.
But he escaped from the Oda family, but he still did not escape from the Japanese conquest coalition.
After Sun Ce focused on the city where he lived in seclusion, he directly launched a massacre after breaking the city.
To be honest, Yamata no Orochi didn't care about the life and death of civilians. He massacred countless civilians when he was a general, so even if Sun Ce killed all the people in Kyushu, he would not frown at all.
Faced with Wu Jun's butcher's knife, Yamata no Orochi could not wait to be killed, so he resisted and after killing many people, Sun Ce was lured out.
Yama no Orochi can speak Chinese, and he made an agreement with Sun Ce before the fight began. If he wins, he will naturally surrender to Wu. After all, nothing is more important to him than his own life.
Yamata no Orochi thought he would easily defeat Sun Ce. After all, in his opinion, Sun Ce was still too young. However, he did not expect that Sun Ce's combat power was so strong that even he would find it difficult, but he was still no match for him.
What Yamata no Orochi didn't expect was that after he defeated Sun Ce, Wu Jun did not abide by the agreement and let him go.
Sun Ce was originally prepared to abide by the agreement, but the Yamata no Orochi struck too hard, injuring Sun Ce and even almost killing him. Naturally, the Wu generals gave up.
Yamata no Orochi felt that he had been merciful and spared Sun Ce's life, but Sun Ce broke the contract and was naturally furious, so he stopped holding back and killed Sun Hao and Sun Yi in the process of forcibly breaking through. .
Sun Hao is the eldest son of Sun Jing, and Sun Yi is the third son of Sun Jian. They are both members of the Wu clan.
The Yamata no Orochi killed them and formed a blood feud with the Sun family. Naturally, it was impossible for Sun Ce to let him go.
Yama no Orochi doesn't care about this, the worst he can do is continue to escape.
But when he fled to the Song Dynasty, he was hunted down by the Song and Wu countries.
Especially the insidious Zhao Guangyi, who on the surface wanted to surrender to him, but secretly colluded with Wu State. He must have wanted to deceive and murder himself in order to please Sun Ce.
Yamata no Orochi thought he had seen through Zhao Guangyi's intentions, but he didn't know that Zhao Guangyi really wanted to recruit him.
What Zhao Guangyi thought was that at worst, after recruiting him, he would hide the Yamata no Orochi and then change his identity, so that Wu Guo would be unable to do anything to him.
But Yamata no Orochi pretended to surrender, killed more than a dozen generals of the Song Dynasty, and then forced his way out. This completely offended the Song Dynasty.
After escaping from the territory of the Song Dynasty, Yamata no Orochi entered the Higo Kingdom. He asked himself that he had never offended the Qin State, and he never wanted to offend the Qin State, but he was still pursued by the Qin State.
Qin has more masters than Song and Wu combined, so Yamata no Orochi also had a harder time escaping.
When being chased by Song and Wu, Yamata-no-Orochi was not injured despite great physical exertion. However, he was injured in the first battle after entering Higo Kingdom. His opponents were Xue Dingshan and Yue Yun.
These two young men, one wields a halberd and the other wields a hammer. Their strength is not weak, but they are still too young in the eyes of Yamata no Orochi.
Although Yamata no Orochi is sure to defeat him, he is now wanted by the Qin army. If he delays for too long and is surrounded by the Qin army, it will be bad.
In the end, Yamata no Orochi defeated and injured Xue Dingshan, who was at the peak of the **** general, and Yue Yun, who was at the **** of war level, in just thirty rounds at the expense of minor injuries.
You know, it took Yamata no Orochi sixty rounds to defeat Sun Ce.
Yamata no Orochi's movements were not unpleasant, but he was still a step too slow. After he defeated Yue Yun, the Five Tigers of Liangshan had already arrived.
In order to prevent being surrounded by the Qin army, Yamata-no-Orochi forced his way out after paying a certain price, but the injuries were superimposed and had affected his condition.
This also made Yamata no Orochi realize that the Qin Dynasty was far from being comparable to the Song and Wu countries. If you wanted to escape, you couldn't just rely on force, but also had to be outwitted, so there were plans to build plank roads in secret.
"I, Yamata Torochi, have not been bullied to this extent since I left the army. Just wait, I will come back with revenge sooner or later."
Yama no Orochi said to himself coldly, his eyes full of hatred, but it was soon replaced by solemnity.
He saw a general with a white horse and a silver spear at the end of the road. It was obvious that he was coming with bad intentions.
When Zhao Yun saw Yamata no Orochi really choose to take this path, he couldn't help but sigh: "Fengxian, it's not that Yun wants to **** it from you, it's just that I met you but you didn't."
Zhao Yun jumped off the horse, pointed the spear in his hand at the opponent, and said calmly: "Yamata no Orochi, come and die."
[Ding dong, Zhao Yun’s skill ‘Reverse Scale’ activates force +5, basic force is 107 (+7), Gentian Bright Silver Spear +1, current force has increased to 113; ]
Looking at the murderous Zhao Yun, the expression on Yamata no Orochi's face was distorted, and he roared: "It's too much to bully others, Nisunai."
【Ding dong, Yamata no Orochi activates the skill ‘Stick God’, with force +4.
Yamata no Orochi (Yamata Torochi), commander 88, force 107, intelligence 77, politics 50, charisma 67;
The current strength of Yamata no Orochi has increased to 111;】
Yamata no Orochi has been injured and his combat power has seriously declined. In addition, he has neither a magic weapon nor a famous horse. Naturally, he cannot be the opponent of Zhao Yun in full condition.
At the twenty-third round of the battle, Zhao Yun discovered a flaw. After a single shot, Yamata no Orochi had a bloodstain on his body, and then the scars on his body continued to accumulate, becoming more and more numerous.
Yamata no Orochi also realized that if he continued to fight like this, he would be killed by Zhao Yun sooner or later, so after repelling Zhao Yun with all his strength, he decisively chose to run away.
Zhao Yun naturally would not let him escape, so he followed closely and pursued at full speed, and this pursuit led him into Bungo Kingdom.
I worked overtime yesterday and had a dinner party in the evening. I came back very late, so I ran out of code. I will make up for it with double updates today.
