Martial Arts: Start with 100,000 Xiliang Cavalry

Chapter 158 Prophecy, Action, Arrival
Naijing Daming Palace.

Shenqianle Lingmeng held a long stick in his hand, and stood outside the palace gate, waiting eagerly.

The samurai who went in to report came out shortly afterwards and said to her, "Daimyo is not feeling well and doesn't want to see anyone."

"But." Shenqianle Lingmeng squeezed the long stick tightly, anxiously, "This is a very important matter!"

"Sorry, you can't go in."

The samurai refused very simply, even if the opposite was the miko of Kamisenraku Taisha, he still had to put the will of the daimyo as the top priority.

However, he did not dare to neglect the witches, he still had to maintain respect.Especially the shrine maidens of Kamisenle Taisha.

In Dongwo, there has been a saying, "The Shenqianle clan guides the future."

Many people are convinced of this sentence, because the Shenqianle clan has predicted many disasters in the past.And relying on this prophecy, many people successfully avoided disasters and reduced losses.

Therefore, seeing that the witch is in such a hurry, the samurai guarding the gate is also very curious, and can't help but say: "Master witch, you are in such a hurry, is there another prophecy from the big shrine?"

"Yes……"

Shen Qianle Lingmeng nodded.

There was some fear in her heart, because she had never seen her grandma, the great priestess of the big shrine, showed such a sad look.

The big witch said that she had never seen such a prophecy. In the past, when a disaster was about to happen, the prophecy would vaguely specify the specific location or what the specific disaster was.

But this time, there was only one bloody character whose color was so dark that it turned black.This made the great witch pessimistically think that this disaster may be inevitable, and the scale is unprecedented.

Faced with such a situation, the Grand Priestess was unwilling to do nothing.She asked Lingmeng to send the lottery of prophecy to the Daming Mansion, and told the Daming that no matter what the latter was going to do, he must stop immediately, so that there might be a possibility of saving it.

But after Reimu arrived, he realized that he couldn't even see Daimyo's face.

She still doesn't know that the daimyo has already become a puppet in the hands of the Shanggong shogunate.The Shanggong shogunate wanted to get rid of the Shenqianle clan, so naturally they would not let the daimyo meet his clan again.

The daimyo was afraid of the power of Shanggong's family, and heard that it was the witch of Shenqianle who came, so he had to excuse his illness to disappear.

In desperation, Reimu handed over the long lottery to the samurai and asked him to help pass it on to the daimyo.And tell him what the great witch said.

Soon, the long lottery was not delivered to the daimyo, but to Shanggong Shingen.

At the Shanggong Mansion, Shanggong Shingen looked at the crimson "disaster" on the long signature, and frowned.

The prophecy of the Shenqianle clan is very famous in Eastern Japan.This is why many people go to worship at Shenqianle Taisha Shrine every year.

A long time ago, there were rumors in Eastern Japan that the people of the Shenqianle clan had a special physique and were strange "spiritual bodies".This kind of physique can penetrate the deep and deep, and see things that ordinary people can't see.It can also communicate with some mysterious beings.

Legend has it that the Yamata no Orochi, which once ravaged the Eastern Japanese, was surrendered by the Shenqianle clan, and it was for this reason that the common people were given a place of peace.

In Uemiya Shingen's view, these are pure nonsense!

If there really are some gods and ghosts, why did he not get any help when he prayed to God and Buddha when he was bullied by everyone when he was a child?

On the contrary, those who bullied him lived a very chic life.It doesn't look like you will be punished after doing a lot of evil.

Therefore, Shanggong Shingen doesn't believe in any gods and Buddhas, he only believes in himself, in power and military strength.That's why he rose up in one fell swoop after forbearing for several years, trampling down all the people who bullied him when he was a child.Even the high-ranking daimyo have become puppets in the palm of their hands.

How could he look down on the family of witches who "can understand ghosts and gods" after walking all the way like this?
Staring at the word "disaster", Shingen Uemiya snorted coldly and exerted force with his palm.

With a click, the long stick broke from it.

"Hmph... Shenqianle's family loves pretending to be gods and tricks!"

He couldn't see any disaster coming, instead, in his eyes, a great thing was about to happen!

The new emperor of the Southern Zhou Dynasty had promised to give Ozu Island to Dongwo.As long as the island is obtained, the strength of the Eastern Japanese will be greatly increased, and then they will plot the Central Plains and expand the territory.

This is not a good thing, is it still a disaster?

Shingen Uemiya felt restless, and really wanted to send troops to destroy the shrine of the Kamisenle clan immediately, and behead the big witch who pretended to be a ghost.

But he didn't act recklessly. One is that the Shenqianle clan should have some skills, otherwise there is no reason why the Koga ninja would ask him to do it.

Those guys who are proficient in ninjutsu and assassination techniques need help from others to kill someone. This can only mean that the Shenqianle clan is not as weak as it appears on the surface.

Another point is that the Shenqianle clan has a high prestige in the hearts of the people.If you rashly send troops to this family, it will definitely attract the hostility of the common people.

Shanggong Shingen knows that he is not completely the only one, and there are several shogunate besides him.These families must regard him as a thorn in the side. Once he goes to the palace and loses popular support, he may be used by other shogunate to jointly attack.

Shingen Uemiya thought for a moment.Knowing that direct action was the worst strategy, he looked at the broken wooden sign on the ground and thought of a plan.

"Come on!"

"Yes, General!"

"Spread the news that the Shenqianle clan predicted that there will be a catastrophe in Dongwo, and let every commoner know!"

"Yes!"

The samurai under his command received the order and carried it out immediately.

Shingen Uemiya sat at the entrance, with a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Shen Qianle said that there was a catastrophe, but I went to the palace and took Dazhou Treasure Island backhandedly. As a result, Shen Qianle's prestige in the hearts of the people will naturally decline. When the people are disappointed and disgusted with this family, they will It's time for me to do it!"

……

Torioka Prefecture ferry.

This is the nearest ferry to Naikyung, and it is also the main starting point for the East Wa to harass the surrounding coast of Dazhou.

At this moment, a total of [-] ashigaru armed with long poles and wearing bamboo hats are standing by.In front of them were three samurai from the Kamimiya family wearing red torihaori.

Ono, Naze, Hayakawa.

The three of them are samurai chosen by Shingen Uemiya to lead the operation.

The foot is light at the moment, and the fast boat is ready, but no one has come yet.

All three of them had expressions of impatience on their faces, complaining endlessly.

"Why haven't those dark guys arrived yet!"

"Who knows... If you want me to say, it is enough for us to go, and they are not needed at all."

"That's right! But General Kamiya is also thinking about me. It's just that those first-class Koga Shinobi guys are really slack!"

What the three samurai were waiting for was Koga Ninja, a first-class ninja.Before they set off, they were told that there were ninjas going with this operation to ensure that the operation would go smoothly.

But now the three of them waited for half an hour, but the ninja still hadn't arrived.Just when they were about to send someone to inquire about the situation, five masked talents in black arrived late.

"You guys came too late!" Ono asked dissatisfiedly. He was the leader of the three warriors and the commander of this operation.Naturally, he was very dissatisfied with the late behavior of these ninjas.

However, he didn't expect that the ninjas would ignore him at all, and just went to sit on a fast boat, closed their eyes and meditated.

"asshole……"

The three warriors were furious in their hearts, but the mission was in hand, and now is really not a good time to get angry.I can only press it in my heart, and prepare to file a complaint with General Shanggong after returning from the mission.

"Since everyone is here, let's all get on the boat!" Xiaoye said.

"Yes!"

The ashigaru people rushed to the boat one after another. They were agile and skilled, and they had participated in this kind of harassment mission more than once.

A total of [-] fast boats, [-] foot light boats plus three samurai, plus five ninjas, a total of [-] people, starting from the ferry in Tooka County, the destination is the east ferry of the capital.

From Torioka to the capital city, the journey is not too far, but it is not too short. It will take nearly a day to drive at full speed without stopping.

For this reason, the ashigaru people have to bring their own dry food, and they only eat one meal a day, so naturally they can't fill their stomachs.But this is the method that Dongwa has always implemented.

Its purpose is to eat a meal, to ensure strength and a sense of hunger at the same time, so that when they reach the coast of Dazhou, the soldiers can have enough desire to plunder.Moreover, Dongwa has always been confident that he can easily snatch food from Dazhou to fill his stomach.

The action was as usual.

At the east ferry of the capital, the construction of the warship is still in progress, and the watchtower has also been roughly built.

The three small villages that were originally relatively sparsely populated have become extremely lively in recent days.

First of all, the sense of security has been greatly improved. In the past, during the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were only a few soldiers patrolling here. When the Eastern Japanese soldiers came, they immediately ran away without a trace, which made the people in the fishing village resentful.

Now there are nearly a thousand ordinary soldiers stationed here!What a sense of security.

In addition to soldiers, Qi Jiguang, who was in charge of manufacturing warships, also brought a large number of recruited workers and craftsmen from the capital.

And when there are more people, the village becomes lively and lively.Not to mention, the day before yesterday there were dozens of masters from the rivers and lakes. As soon as they came, some children in the village were blown up and ran to watch others practice martial arts.

In the fishing village, there are not many people from the rivers and lakes, and the children naturally yearn for martial arts. Naturally, they will feast their eyes if they catch the opportunity this time.The Jianghu people who were transferred here did not hide it, and they would give pointers to interested children after practicing.

Among them, one of the children was selected as an apprentice by a master born in the third level because of his extraordinary bones, which was considered a chance.

Although they have to work every day, everyone is very motivated towards a bright future.On the watchtower under construction, the workers were painting the dust. The weather was hot. He took the towel hanging around his neck and wiped his sweat. He glanced up inadvertently and saw some inconspicuous black spots floating in the distance of the sea.

At first he didn't pay attention, and continued to lower his head to work, but after a while, he raised his head again, and when the black spots got closer, he suddenly realized what was happening, and his mouth opened wide in an instant.
