Chapter 848 Appears again, [Transparent World]! [4600]
Taking a closer look, Hijikata and the others' facial expressions were dominated by intense fatigue.
First, they secretly crossed Tianwang Mountain, then rushed down from the mountain, and then pursued the enemy without stopping.
Even if it is made of steel and iron, it cannot withstand such an intense battle.
Until now, they have become "bloody men".
The light green feather fabric on his body was dyed dark brown by blood, and the original background color was almost unrecognizable.
Fortunately, they were only exhausted and not seriously injured. They still had the strength to sit and eat.
The dashing Hijikata Toshizo and the respectful and quiet Saito were more elegant, eating slowly and leisurely.
Nagakura Shinpachi, Serizawa Kamo, and Shinmi Nishiki have never been associated with the word "gentle".
I saw them destroying all the food in sight with the force of wind and clouds, and eating with revenge.
Seeing that their appetites were so good, Qingdeng felt relieved.
Since he can still sit and eat, it's no big deal - this is a simple truth that Qingdeng realized after experiencing many bloody battles.
Eating is human nature.
If you can't even eat, that's a problem.
By the way, the generals and strategists of the Satsuma Army—namely Saigo Kinosuke and Ichichi Ryūemon—were also here.
In order to facilitate command, the main formations of the two armies were combined into one.
Seeing Qingdeng coming, the two men stood up quickly and saluted Qingdeng respectfully.
Although Saigo Kinnosuke is the actual leader of the Satsuma Domain, his apparent identity is always just a minister of the Satsuma Domain.
In terms of political status alone, he naturally cannot be compared with Qingdeng, who is a prince.
Saigo Kinosuke is not good at personal force, so naturally he will not charge forward.
Ichichi Ryuemon is a military advisor, and he doesn't know how to wear armor and go into battle.
Therefore, in comparison, these two looked much neater and calmer - after all, they had been staying at the back without even breaking a sweat.
Hijikata Toshizo half-jokingly said to Aoshito while chewing rice balls:
"Tangerine, are your hands and feet too slow? We have almost finished the fight, and you are so late."
Qingdeng smiled helplessly:
"We are here at full speed."
After making a little joke, Toshizo Hijikata stuffed the last rice ball in his hand into his mouth, swallowed it whole, and then moved to the tent with Aoto, Saigo Kinosuke and others, and introduced the current battle situation to Aoto based on the map.
In fact, there is not much to talk about.
Hisaka Genrui led more than a thousand remaining soldiers to guard the top of Tenno Mountain, blocking all the main routes into the mountain, and assumed a "fight to the end" posture.
Hijikata Toshizo, Saigo Kinosuke and others are not worried about what kind of trouble these guys can cause.
Although the ancients said, "Don't chase poor enemies" and "A sad army will win", everything must pay attention to specific conditions.
In the face of absolute strength, no matter how sad the soldiers are or how poor the invaders are, what can they do?
Now, attack and defend the aliens.
The Changzhou Army became the weaker side, and it had just experienced a disastrous defeat and its morale was declining.
In short, Hijikata Tobizo, Saigo Kinosuke and others no longer regarded the remnant soldiers on the mountain as a threat. They believed in their hearts that even if they occupied the favorable location of Tenno Mountain, they would be nothing more than grasshoppers in the autumn. It won't be long.
The only thing that Hijikata Toshizo, Saigo Kinosuke and others are worried about now is how to capture or kill Kusaka Genzui.
Tianwang Mountain is not an unknown hill, it covers a large area.
Even with the reinforcements brought by Qingdeng, Tianwang Mountain could not be completely surrounded.
At best, it can only block the main road out of the mountain.
As for those remote trails that are inaccessible, it is impossible to take care of them.
In this way, once the war breaks out, Kusaka Genrui and other high-level figures are likely to take advantage of the chaos and escape by taking a small road.
That's it for the others, Kusaka Genrui will definitely not be let go.
This person is the leader of the radical faction, an important leader of the anti-protest movement, and the most wanted criminal in the shogunate.
If he dies, the impact on the Zunbo Sect will be the "Ikedaya Incident"!
If the head of Kusaka Genrui cannot be taken off, even if the bandit army on the mountain is completely wiped out, it can hardly be called a "complete victory."
After quietly listening to Hijikata Toshizo's concise and concise introduction, Aomori nodded lightly.
Then, he raised his eyes and cast complimentary glances at Hijikata Toshizo and Saigo Kinosuke.
"Suisan, Xixiang-kun, your results far exceeded my expectations. Well done! I will definitely do my best for you!"
As soon as Seito finished speaking, Saigo Kinosuke hurriedly straightened his back, showed an expression that was neither humble nor arrogant, and said humble words such as "I dare not take it" and "You are too generous".
Hijikata Toshizo smiled slightly and didn't say much.
He only exchanged a look of understanding with Qingdeng, then changed to a serious tone and asked:
"Tachibana, what are you going to do next?"
"It's not difficult to destroy the bandit army."
"The difficult thing is how to capture or kill Kusaka Genrui while destroying the traitor army."
"Personally, the latter is just as important as the former."
As soon as Hijikata Toshisan finished speaking, Ayoto immediately said:
"Susan, you are just worrying too much."
He reached out and patted Hijikata Tobizo on the shoulder, and continued with a smile:
“The more you covet perfection, the easier it is to end up in vain.”
"Since there is no suitable means to capture the thief at the moment, let's do our best to wait for destiny."
"If we can take off the head of Kusaka Genrui, that would be the best."
"On the contrary, it doesn't matter."
Qing Deng waved his hand and said, with a firm tone and amazing momentum:
"I only want Tianwang Mountain now! I don't care about the rest!"
At this point, he suddenly stood up and looked down at the map on the table in front of him.
"Our current military strength is nearly 4 times that of the enemy."
"In this case, there is no need for any battle plan!"
Qing Deng grabbed a handful of military flags and casually scattered them on the map, all over the "Tianwang Mountain".
"No need to set up any feints or auxiliary attacks! All are main attacks! Kill the enemy as soon as you meet them, and hit them hard! Fight until Tianwang Mountain is full of our flags!"
...
...
The sun in the sky passed the highest point and gradually set in the west.
After a short rest, the army at the foot of the mountain was ready to go.
If you look down from above, you can see the spectacular scene of swords and guns like a forest!
Although the remnant of the Choshu army on the top of Mount Tenwang could not fully appreciate the might of the newly elected Satsuma coalition, they could see the uniform military appearance and the high morale.
Anyone who saw it knew that the newly elected Satsuma coalition was about to launch a general attack!
In comparison, the top of the mountain and the foot of the mountain formed two completely different worlds.
It seemed that a materialized cloud of sorrow was shrouding the top of Mount Tenwang.
The remnant of the Choshu army showed miserable, painful, panic, and angry expressions.
It was terribly quiet... No one spoke.
The battle was imminent, but there was not even one person who spoke to boost morale.
Their fighting spirit was weak, which could be seen from this.
Suddenly, with a sound of - choke - Qingdeng pulled out Vairocana, stepped forward, and moved to the front of the formation.
When his figure jumped into the eyes of the generals, it immediately caused a strong sensation.
"Lord Niou!"
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!"
"My lord, you will fight with us!"
The cheers one after another dominated the entire Tianwang Mountain.
Without doing anything, just showing up, the morale of the army was greatly boosted - Qing Deng now undoubtedly has the ability and prestige to control people's hearts!
Qing Deng raised his head and looked up and down at the Tianwang Mountain in front of him.
The altitude of Tianwang Mountain is not high, only 270 meters.
The mountain is full of lush, undeveloped dense forests.
Needless to say, cavalry will definitely be useless.
Due to the limitations of the terrain, it is difficult for the musketeers to form a formation, and their combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced.
Therefore, next, it is the turn of the melee infantry!
It is now afternoon, and it will be dark in another two hours.
If it is dark, the battle will be difficult to fight.
In any case, we must end the battle before dark!
In order to win the battle quickly, Qing Deng decided to continue to use his tough style of "leading the troops and taking the lead"!
For Qing Deng, this is just what he wants!
The enemy army on the Fushimi battlefield collapsed too quickly.
Qing Deng felt that he had not even exerted his strength yet. He had just warmed up and cut off the head of Kurushima Matabei and destroyed his army.
Although Qing Deng said "no need to force it", Hijikata Toshizo, Nagakura Shinpachi and others insisted that "we have rested" and insisted on joining the battle.
"I don't like climbing mountains..."
Souji walked to Qing Deng's side and said with a wry smile.
Qing Deng curled his lips and said half-jokingly:
"If you feel tired, you can stay in the back, I don't mind."
"After all, you have just recovered from the wound you suffered in the battle of Ikedaya."
"Even if you stay in the back to rest, no one will say anything about you."
After hearing this, Souji immediately shook his head:
"That won't work. You and Mr. Hijikata are fighting on the front line. If I stay in the back and have fun, I will have trouble sleeping and eating in the future."
Qing Deng laughed dumbly:
"In that case, you have to follow closely."
After saying that, he raised the Vairocana in his hand and raised it above his head.
At the same time, he took a deep breath with a hiss -
"Follow me!"
While shouting loudly, he chopped off the Vairocana in his hand, and then took the lead and rushed out!
His shout was like a magic.
In an instant, the foot of Tianwang Mountain was engulfed by huge heat.
Souji, Hijikata Toshizo, the Shinsengumi soldiers, and the Satsuma soldiers howled, roared, and rushed, like a surging tide, rushing to the top of Tenno Mountain from all directions!
"They are coming up!"
"Don't be afraid! Everyone has to die, even if you die, you must die heroically and live up to the name of Choshu samurai!"
"Kill! Fight with these shogunate running dogs!"
Accompanied by the angry shouts, the soldiers of the Choshu army immediately launched a stubborn resistance.
In a flash, a white light flashed - a knife chopped from Qingdeng's left.
Qingdeng twisted slightly, adjusted his posture, raised his left palm like lightning, grabbed the enemy's right wrist, and prevented the blade from falling.
The next breath, his right arm bounced violently, and Vairocana drew a purple afterimage in the air, hitting the opponent's chest and knocking him to the ground.
Suddenly, a mountain wind blew.
Along with the mountain wind, a short gun stabbed out from the inconspicuous bushes.
Qing Deng let the wind blow his hair and squinted his eyes slightly - moving, changing position, raising the sword, and attacking - four actions were completed in one go, and it was difficult to tell the order.
A half-broken short gun and a warm corpse appeared on the ground.
Before Qing Deng could catch his breath, he suddenly heard a loud shout, and a swordsman jumped out from the strong wind and bushes, and rushed towards Qing Deng with the momentum of the attack.
Instantly, the two of them were fighting.
This guy was quite capable, and he could fight Qing Deng for several rounds.
He put on a skilled Qingyan stance and used strange moves.
It seemed to be a upward strike, but it was actually a feint.
It seemed to be a powerful strike, but the blade unexpectedly changed its direction.
Although his swordsmanship was unique and tricky, Qing Deng saw through his routine after just a few glances.
Qing Deng was calm and composed, and he countered the opponent's moves one by one. After cleverly dodging the opponent's first few swords, he suddenly lowered his body center of gravity and slashed Vairocana from bottom to top.
The next moment after the purple blade enveloped the opponent, the opponent's head and body were only connected by a little flesh and blood, and he fell to the ground without even a groan.
Compared with the open and close cavalry battle,... it turns out that the flexible and free foot battle can make Qing Deng feel more excited!
Qing Deng rushed straight to the top of the mountain, galloping easily on the rugged mountain as if walking on flat ground.
The lush and dense forest provided shelter for the soldiers of the Choju Army.
There were Vietcong everywhere... ah, no, there were Choju soldiers lurking everywhere waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
It was like now - with a whoosh - another gust of wind hit Qing Deng.
The person who started the new trend this time was a short man squatting on a tree trunk, hiding his body with leaves.
Because of his short stature and thick leaves, at first glance, it was impossible to tell that there was a person hiding here.
The man looked at Qing Deng who was getting closer and closer to him excitedly, thinking that he could successfully launch a sneak attack, take Qing Deng's head, and become a person who made history.
He probably never thought that his painstaking hiding was completely useless.
Qing Deng found him early in the morning.
As soon as the man jumped down from the tree trunk, he saw a blade with a purple glow bounce up from the bottom and sweep towards his body... The man who fell was split into two halves.
—— Very good! Very sharp senses!
Qing Deng let out a long breath, a joyful arc hung on the corners of his lips, and a slight surprise appeared on his cheeks.
Perhaps because of his excellent physical condition, Qing Deng felt that his senses were particularly sharp today!
He knew clearly where people were lurking and where there was murderous intent.
The huge mountains and forests, the complex terrain and conditions, were all visible in his eyes!
To exaggerate a little... This feeling was like having "perspective eyes"! Easily see through everything you see.
Qing Deng didn't think much about it, just sighed "I'm in great physical condition", and continued to move towards the top of the mountain, fighting and advancing.
At this moment, suddenly... It was really very sudden! Qing Deng suddenly found that his vision had changed strangely!
Flowers, grass, trees, mud, stones, people... everything he saw, whether alive or dead, all emitted indescribable "air currents".
These "air currents" seemed to have life, rising and falling from time to time.
Although his vision was filled with strange "air currents", he did not feel any discomfort in his eyes or his vision was blocked.
It was just the opposite - he felt that his vision was particularly broad now!
It was like looking down from above... No! It was even better than looking down from above!
Even if it was looking down, there would always be blind spots, but Qing Deng could see everything at this time, without any blind spots.
In his eyes, the whole world was like "transparent"!
This perspective... rather than being an "eagle's overlooking view", it was better to say it was an omniscient "God's perspective"!
He could even "see" Souji and others behind him!
Qing Deng had no eyes behind him, so of course he could not see Souji and others' every move.
But the strange thing is that all their actions and behaviors are clearly visible in front of Qing Deng, just like seeing it with his own eyes.
Qing Deng is not unfamiliar with this kind of "airflow" and this kind of perspective.
He has experienced this situation several times before.
But this time is different.
Compared with the past, Qing Deng feels that he can see more "airflow" now, and his vision is wider and clearer.
Of course, these are not the most significant changes.
The most significant change... is the touch.
Somehow, Qing Deng has a vague but wonderful touch of "palms and the handle of the knife are integrated, feet and the earth are integrated, and the whole body is integrated with the air"!
This touch... is great!
Endless power gushed out of the body!
