Chapter 391 Zuocun was seriously injured and Okita was unconscious
Snapped--!
"Uh——!!!" Isamu Kondo was pushed back by Zuo Cun. He put one hand on the ground and looked at Zuo Cun solemnly.
"Really, I haven't seen you for such a long time, but you are still so strong, Samura." Kondo Isamu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. His arms were obviously shaking, but he still stood up.
Zuocun didn't speak, he just held the crane again and stared at Isamu Kondo, who was at the end of his crossbow.
The tied up rebels on the side looked at Isamu Kondo and Zuomura tremblingly with tears of fear in their eyes.
Why - why are they so strong?!
Zuomura knew that Kondo Isamu had his own beliefs, so he didn't say any more: "Keep fighting, Kondo."
"Haha, that's...natural!!!"
Buzz————
"Cheng Yi——"
"flash!"
Zuo Cun's pupils shrank.
Ping!
this is......
Samura's left upper arm was directly cut open by Kondo from his upper left arm to his chest.
Kondo's figure appeared behind Zuo Cun, breathing heavily.
"It's really...frightening reflexes." Kondo smiled tiredly and barely supported his body with his knife to prevent himself from falling.
Zuo Cun covered his left arm, looked at Kondo Isamu, and showed a faint smile: "So... you have learned it too."
"Shutchi."
"Cough-poof..." Kondo spit out a mouthful of blood, his body swayed, and he knelt on one knee, but his eyes did not leave Zuomura at all, "How is it? Surprise?"
"It's indeed a surprise." Zuo Cun nodded with a smile, "But from the look of you, you're still very unskilled in shakichi."
"I just realized it recently... just for fun..."
thump.
Isamu Kondo lost consciousness and lay on the ground, unconscious.
Zuocun sighed.
He tore off a few strands of cloth from his Wufu, first tied up his arms, then helped Kondo Isamu to the wall, and treated some of Kondo Isamu's more serious wounds.
"Counting the time, Okita and Hijikata are about to come up." Zuomura sighed.
He looked at Isamu Kondo, who was unconscious and sitting by the wall, and showed a helpless smile.
"Even if it's... I'll let you go."
"...I hope we won't see each other again in the future, Kondo."
As he spoke, Zuo Cun came to the window.
At this time, all the soldiers of the Aizu Domain had surrounded them.
Zuo Cun gritted his teeth, climbed onto the roof, and disappeared into the night under the dark sky.
Only a few drops of blood along the way could prove that he had passed by here.
...
"Ha...ha...ha..." Zuocun walked south from Sanjo Bridge.
The blood has dyed half of Zuo Cun's body red. Now Zuo Cun's face is pale and his whole face is covered with sweat.
His eyes were a little blurry, and his consciousness had begun to blur due to excessive blood loss.
But he knew he would be fine.
Pushing himself hard, Zuo Cun walked to the front of a house.
Boom!
He knocked hard with all his strength, and then Zuocun fell to the ground.
Crunch——
A man came out of the door.
He sighed softly.
"How long has it been since you suffered such a serious injury?" Lu Silan hugged Zuo Cun, "Master Annuo?"
...
Okita, Hijikata and Harada rushed to the second floor together.
The situation downstairs has been brought under control, and now the three of them came up to confirm Kondo's condition.
The first time they came up, everyone saw Isamu Kondo leaning against the wall.
"Kondo!"
"Mr. Kondo!"
"Director!"
Several people panicked for a moment and rushed over.
It's just that Okita's running posture is a little staggered.
Harada accidentally stepped on a tied up rebel who was lying on the side.
Hijikata put his head on Kondo's chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, he's still alive."
Several people put their hearts back in their stomachs.
Toshizo Hijikata carried Kondo on his shoulders: "Kondo is seriously injured. I will take him back to the station first. You guys cooperate with the people on guard duty and I will come back after I place Director Kondo in place."
"Understood." Souji Okita nodded.
She has the highest position among everyone present, so she is naturally responsible.
However, at this moment, Okita suddenly felt a tightness in his chest.
She involuntarily covered her chest and squatted on the ground.
Hijikata was startled: "Okita! What's wrong with you?!"
"Mr. Hijikata...I..." Okita felt the heat in his chest and took two deep breaths, "Ahem!"
——
"Pfft——"
A large mouthful of blood was spat out by Okita Souji.
"Okita!"
...
Hijikata Tobizo put the suddenly fainted Okita Souji on his other shoulder, and looked at Harada Sanosuke seriously: "This... I'll leave it to you first, and arrange for the other injured to receive it as soon as possible.
treat!"
"Yes, I understand!" Harada Sanosuke swallowed and realized.
Hijikata hurriedly carried Kondo Isamu and Okita Souji on his back and returned to the station.
Tonight, a big incident happened not just in Ikeda House.
Anno Samura, Souji Okita, and Isamu Kondo were all lying unconscious on the hospital bed.
In the Ikedaya Incident, the two parties to the conflict, the Shinsengumi and the Choshu Domain's anti-barbarian faction, both suffered heavy losses, but to the extent of Shinoku, the Choshu domain's anti-barbarian faction suffered a devastating blow.
Almost all of the famous figures who could be counted, such as Miyabe Daizo of the Higo Domain, Yoshida Minoru of the Choshu Domain, Doyoshioka Shosuke, Mochizuki Kameyata of the Tosa Domain, Junjiro Ishikawa, Kitazome Gima, etc., were martyred.
, only a few people survived.
The anti-barbarian hard-liners were almost completely wiped out in this incident.
For this reason, the Shinsengumi also paid a heavy price. Director Isamu Kondo was seriously injured, 1st Division Captain Okita Souji was in a coma, and more than 20 members were killed or injured. This was the biggest loss the Shinsengumi had ever suffered since the team was formed.
However, the most critical person in this incident managed to survive because he was late for the party, and that was Katsura Kogoro.
The Kyoto Guardian and other members of the Shinsengumi are actively handling the remaining matters.
After the Shinsengumi Deputy Chief Hijikata Tobizo interrogated the remaining personnel, the real plan of these anti-Japanese patriots also emerged.
They planned to create a large-scale fire in Kyoto, burn Kyoto, attract the attention of the soldiers of each domain and the Shinsengumi, and then send people to break into the palace, kidnap Emperor Takaaki, and take him to the Choshu domain.
Then another group of people took advantage of the fire to assassinate the guardian of Kyoto, Matsudaira Yoshiho, and the prince, Nakagawa Palace.
After getting this news, Hijikata Toshimichi's heart felt cold.
Fortunately, these bastards didn't succeed. If they did achieve their goals, the consequences would be disastrous.
These bastards who claim to "save the country" and "serve the country" have no regard for the lives of ordinary people.
And this is just the beginning of the restlessness...
