Chapter 932 The 'Biochemical Troops' at the end of the Tokugawa Period! 【4500】

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly changed subtly.

A bunch of stunned and surprised eyes wandered in mid-air.

The decisive battle against Lake... Everyone present had a certain understanding of this object - because of this, they showed frightened expressions at the moment.

Omura Masujiro's complexion changed slightly and his pupils shrank slightly:

"...Mr. Takasugi, are you sure? Using our trump card so soon?"

Takasugi Shinsaku said slowly and expressionlessly:

"Honestly, if I had a choice, I wouldn't want to touch such a dangerous thing."

"But the problem is, we don't have a choice now, do we?"

Omura Masujiro pursed his lips and stopped talking.

The Shinsengumi's combat power and advancement speed were not only beyond his expectations as a strategist, but also beyond the expectations of General Takasugi Shinsaku.

Compared with Omura Masujiro, Takasugi Shinsaku is undoubtedly a "conservative".

He had never looked down upon the Shinsengumi, and his assessment of the war situation was far less optimistic than Masujiro Omura's.

However, this is the case, and the war situation is still deteriorating faster than expected!

Omura Masujiro believed that the "high wall" on the southern battlefield could last at least 2 days - he was not so optimistic, but he felt that the "high wall" could last at least 1 day.

But the result... it took the Shinsengumi less than 2 hours to break through the "high wall" and everyone was slapped in the face.

Taking advantage of the moment when Omura Masujiro was silent, Takasugi Shinsaku continued in a solemn tone:

"You all must know that I don't like to punish the party."

"But no matter what we think in our hearts, it can't change the fact that we are now allies with the Fa Zhu Party!"

"In the face of a powerful enemy, we are fighting in our dens. How can we behave like this?"

Having said this, he specifically raised his eyes and glared at the people who had just criticized Shuten Douji.

"It is true that their progress is not going well and they are hampered by the concerted efforts of thousands of people."

"But how good is it here?"

"Only one day has passed, and the Shinsengumi has arrived in front of us!"

"Now is not the time for finger-pointing."

"At this critical moment, how can we act emotionally?"

"Kui-kun and the others are fighting hard in Kanto... Whether they can capture Edo is related to the success or failure of this battle."

"To put it bluntly, as long as they can capture Edo and destroy the Edo shogunate, it will be worth it even if we all die!"

"This is my realization."

"If I can stop the Shinsengumi and buy enough time for Katsura-kun and the others, even if I am asked to take poison, I will hold my nose and admit it!"

In the team of surprise troops, Takasugi Shinsaku's status and authority are unshakable.

Seeing the general making such a firm statement, the eyes and expressions of everyone present gradually changed - like evil wolves, with fierce eyes flashing.

Takasugi Shinsaku looked around the scene again, then held his head high and said loudly in an unquestionable tone:

"Distribute the 'Decisive Battle of Yodo' to all soldiers! Success or failure depends on this!"





After the military meeting ended, everyone retreated in twos and threes.

After a while, only Takasugi Shinsaku and Omura Masujiro were left in the tent.

"Mr. Omura, it's late at night, you should go and have a rest."

After saying that, Takasugi Shinsaku let out a sigh of relief, with obvious tiredness and a vague look of pain on his brows.

Although he had issued a tactful "expulsion order", Omura Masujiro did not leave just yet.

I saw him turning his head sideways and looking at the other person with complicated eyes.

"...Mr. Takasugi, everyone has dispersed, you don't have to endure it anymore."

As if the lie had been exposed, a flash of panic flashed deep in Takasugi Shinsaku's eyes.

However, he immediately returned to normal.

"'Endure'? What do you mean? What have I endured?"

Facing Shinsaku Takasugi who was deliberately pretending to be stupid, Masujiro Omura stopped beating around the bush and said straightforwardly:

"Mr. Takasugi, have you forgotten?"

"Before I joined the army, I was a famous doctor who studied medicine since I was a child."

"As early as half a month ago, I noticed that your breathing was different."

"So, I took your pulse secretly when you weren't paying attention."

"So...I already know your condition."

"You don't have to pretend to be okay in front of me."

After saying that, he took out a stack of papers from his arms and handed them to the other party.

Looking at the stack of papers handed over by Omura Masujiro, Takasugi Shinsaku's cheeks were filled with a variety of emotions - some were surprised, some were sad, some were relieved...

After a while, these emotions turned into calm smiles.

While smiling, he reached out to take the stack of paper and covered his mouth and nose with it:

Then--

"Cough! Cough cough cough! Cough cough cough cough!!"

Even if I muffle my cough into paper, the sound is still terrifying.

This cough lasted for a long time.

The duration was long and the intensity was severe... people couldn't help but wonder if he would cough out both lungs.

Looking at Takasugi Shinsaku, whose shoulders were shaking due to coughing, Omura Masujiro murmured to himself:

"People suffering from blood cough will cough uncontrollably. Mr. Takasugi, it's a shame that you can pretend to be fine in front of others, and you have been pretending for such a long time..."

About 5 minutes later, Takasugi Shinsaku gradually stopped coughing and felt better.

While breathing heavily, he took out the paper in front of his mouth and nose - the paper was stained with dazzling blood.

Looking at the bright red blood, Omura Masujiro felt sad and said in a heavy tone:

"Why are you the one suffering from this disease...!"

He clenched his fists involuntarily as he spoke, and his words were full of strong regret.

As a former doctor, Omura Masujiro naturally understands the horror of blood cough.

A person who suffered from a bloody cough but did not die... He has been practicing medicine for so many years and has never seen such a precedent.

Strong resentment dominated Omura Masujiro's expression... In comparison, Takasugi Shinsaku was much calmer.

He smiled slightly and threw the bloody paper in his palm into the fire pit nearby.

"Mr. Omura, there is no need to show such an expression."

"Some people never smoke or drink, but they die young."

"Some people smoke a lot and drink a lot, but they live a long life."

"Life and death are fateful. I have already looked past them. This is probably my 'fate'."

"Even if I feel unwilling to do so, I can only accept it."

"That's fine."

"This way, I feel a lot more relaxed."

"Once you know that your death is imminent, you can relieve yourself of many burdens and be able to concentrate on what you really want to do."

Looking at Takasugi Shinsaku with a leisurely and contented face, Omura Masujiro frowned:

"...Mr. Takasugi, you look like you are going to the end of the world at the last moment."

Takasugi Shinsaku smiled heartily:

"While my body can still move, I have to seize the time to make this boring world interesting!"





The next day, early morning——

Tenmanzan, the main formation of the Shinsengumi——

Facing the rising sun in the east, Qingdeng stood with his sword in hand, looking at the Nangong Mountain shrouded in the glow.

Last night, he issued today's combat goal to the entire army - within today, completely defeat the Qi Corps! Capture Nangong Mountain!

Thanks to yesterday's fierce attack, the right-wing front has pushed through halfway up Nangong Mountain.

Regardless of the left wing, the right wing has every hope of reaching the top of the mountain today! Breaking through the enemy's main line!

Therefore, Qingdeng designated the right wing as the breakthrough point to "completely defeat the enemy" and used the right wing as the main direction of attack.

The left wing continued its offensive, but mainly acted as a diversion.

The lineup of generals on the right wing remains unchanged. Except for Shannan Keisuke who is recovering from his injuries in the rear, he, Souji, Saito Kazuchi and Nimi Nishikirai still lead the right wing.

On this basis, he transferred Nagakura Shinpachi and Inoue Genzaburo from the left wing, and then transferred Harada Sanosuke, "Multiple Man" Asai Moriyasu, "Little Dragon" Makimura Taichi, and "Thunder Slash" from the main formation.

Kanichi Shimada - the four of them have been sitting in the main formation yesterday, acting as the reserve team.

He has designated today as the "day of decisive battle". In this way, there is no need to leave Harada Sanosuke and others behind - now is the time to concentrate the maximum combat power and defeat the enemy in one go!

As for Boss Kiryu, he continues to stay in the main camp.

The injury he sustained against Katsuki Yamada Asaemon has not yet healed, and he is really not suitable to go to the front line.

Under Aomori's command, the right wing gathered most of the Shinsengumi's high-end combat capabilities... This lineup is truly luxurious!

Qingdeng’s determination to “end this war today” is evident!





This work is uploaded by the organizer~~

Without any warning -

Bang!

A sudden gunshot announced the beginning of the battle!

"Follow me!"

"kill!"

"Destroy them!"

Using the forward position established yesterday as a springboard, the Shinsengumi team members rushed to the top of the mountain!

Looking up, it looks like a surging wave of light green color!

Qing Deng prepared the long boat in hand and took the lead.

Soon, the enemy's figure jumped into his sight - an enemy soldier raised the flintlock gun in his hand, pointed it at Qingdeng's chest and shot him.

Qingdeng spotted the opponent's movements, twisted slightly, and effortlessly avoided the bullet.

While dodging, he set up the Bizen longship in his palm - the next breath, the blade drew an icy arc in mid-air.

Qingdeng aimed at the opponent's chest.

He thought this move was a sure shot.

But the result——

clang!

Accompanied by the harsh sound of gold and iron clashing, Qingdeng's sword was held up!

The moment Qingdeng swung his sword, the opponent quickly dropped the flintlock gun in his hand, then pulled out the saber from his waist and raised the knife to block - although it seemed reluctant, he did block Qingdeng's slash.

hit!

Although this was just a casual slash thrown by Qingden, it was not something that ordinary people could easily take...

Although Qingden was surprised, as a battle-hardened swordsman, he quickly adjusted himself.

His eyes were slightly focused, and he pulled the Bizen longship back to his hand with lightning speed.

Sheath the knife, charge up, and strike out—three actions in one go!

This time the slashing was done with real skill!

No matter the cutting speed or power, it was not comparable to the attack just now.

Although the opponent tried his best to block, his movements were still half a beat too slow.

With a hiss, Bizen Nagabune's blade tore open his belly, and his internal organs spilled all over the floor.

Qingdeng once again displayed his ability of "having no eyesight", the blade only cut flesh and blood, not bones.

The opponent only had one spine connecting his upper and lower body, and after shaking a few times, he fell to the ground.

Logically speaking, after suffering such a serious injury, it is impossible to get up again and can only lie on the ground and wait for death.

The unspeakable pain and the gushing amount of blood are enough to make a person incapacitated.

However...then, an unbelievable scene happened!

After the opponent shook a few times, he planted his feet and stood firm. Then he shouted "Ouch" and pounced on Qingdeng with a knife!

The bright tip of the knife pierced Qingdeng's chest!

The unexpected change caused Qingdeng's complexion to change slightly.

Fortunately, changes of this magnitude were not even a crisis for Qingdeng.

The talent "Speed ​​+7" is activated!

His body took action consciously first, standing half a step to the right to avoid the opponent's thrust, and then stabbed the opponent's throat with a backhand knife.

At this point, the opponent finally lost the ability to resist. His body twitched a few times and then completely lost its vitality, hanging limply on Qingdeng's knife.

There is only a little bit of bone and flesh connecting the upper and lower bodies, but they can still fight back... Such an abnormal fighting will exudes a strong and strange aura!

Qingden lowered his face, raised his head and looked around, and was shocked to find that such strange enemy soldiers were scattered all over the battlefield!

"Damn! How can these guys be so tenacious!"

"Be careful! This guy is not dead yet!"

"How is that possible! I have obviously stabbed his chest!"

As soon as the battle started, the team members gradually discovered that the enemy soldiers in front of them were unusual!

First of all, their physical fitness has become extremely strong!

Strength, agility, concentration, reaction speed...all functions have increased greatly!

Secondly, their fighting will has become very terrifying!

Even if his chest is pierced or his belly is cut open, he will not fall down easily!

So... so... so like not afraid of pain at all!

Facing this group of opponents who suddenly changed, not to mention the ordinary soldiers, even the captains suffered heavy losses!

"Drink!"

Toudo Heisuke shouted, raised his upper right sword, and used a standard cassock slash, hitting an enemy soldier in the upper body.

The opponent's chest was like a shell, split in half, with bones exposed and blood flowing like a stream.

Normally, with such a serious injury, death would be close.

Therefore, Toudo Heisuke no longer paid attention to the opponent, withdrew his attention from him, turned his body sideways, and prepared to deal with the next enemy soldier - it was this moment of carelessness that almost cost him his life!

call!

The blade squeaked. The sudden sound of swiping the knife caused Heisuke Toudou's face to change color instantly!

There was obviously a huge gap in his chest, but the opponent didn't fall to the ground!

Not only did he not fall to the ground, he even fought back with a knife!

The blade drew an arc and slashed towards Toudou Heisuke's neck.

Toudo Heisuke's reaction speed was far inferior to Aoto's.

Although he subconsciously stepped back, he was still half a beat too slow.

He dodged the fatal blow and saved his neck, but not his left shoulder - the opponent's knife tip swept across his left shoulder, and the gurgling blood immediately dyed the light green haori red.

Because the dodge was too hasty, Toudo Heisuke's posture was extremely chaotic. After dodging the opponent's slash, he was unable to stabilize his body center of gravity in time and stumbled to the ground.

Seeing Toudo Heisuke fall to the ground, the opponent did not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He immediately took half a step forward to close the distance, raised the sword above his head, and prepared to strike the second blow.

But at the moment when the knife in his palm was raised into the air and about to be struck down, as if the video tape had been stopped, his body suddenly froze - a knife pierced his throat from behind.

This guy looked like a robot that had run out of power. He could no longer move, his eyes protruded forward, and he was completely dead.

The person who saved Toudou Heisuke at this critical moment was none other than Souji.

The Souji clenched the knife in his hand, swung it to the right, and threw the opponent's body off the knife.

The shocked Toudo Heisuke looked at the Souji in front of him, then looked at the enemy soldiers lying at his feet, and murmured:

"Director...thank you..."

"Okay, no need to be polite, stand up quickly."

The Souji put on a zanshin posture while keeping a serious look on his surroundings.

"How are your injuries?"

"It's just a cut on the flesh, it's not a problem."

Todo Heisuke stood up hurriedly with his sword in hand.

"Director, be careful! These guys are weird!"

"Well, I can see it..."

After saying that, the director subconsciously turned his head to look for Qingden.

Qingdeng's figure is not difficult to find at all.

Because he was fighting side by side with Nagakura Shinpachi, he was surrounded by enemy soldiers—and enemy soldiers were lying at his feet.

PS: According to historical facts, Takasugi Shinsaku, like Okita Souji, also suffered from tuberculosis. Tuberculosis was very popular at that time, and I don’t know why.
