Tomorrow's Ark is too real

Chapter 1074 Assassination
Dongzhou, Eastern Mountains.

After the Victoria Army launched a general offensive, the "Ghost Troop" from Kjerag finally turned the corner, and the Sakura Takeshi army, which had besieged them for several days, retreated.

The snow in the mountains has not melted, the hustle and bustle has faded, and there is only tranquility in the air.

In front of the tent, looking at the gloomy black clouds in the sky, the silver-gray eyes were so deep that it was hard to understand.

"master."

After experiencing this thrilling and long guerrilla warfare, Jiaofeng also lost a lot of weight.

When he came to Yin Hui, he asked for the final order aloud.

"Master, all the enemy troops on the periphery have withdrawn, and Heigang's helicopter has rushed to the main battlefield."

"kindness."

"According to the last information from Penguin Logistics, Victoria's Central Army is launching a full-scale attack on Dongzhou, and we are safe."

"I see."

Seeing Yinhui's incomprehensible attitude, Jiaofeng continued to ask.

"Master, what are we going to do next? Collect some supplies along the way and cooperate with the Victorian army?"

"Do not."

Yin Hui looked up at the dark sky.

"Go back to Xichuan along the way, and then we will go back to Kjerag."

Jiaofeng was taken aback.

"Back to Kjerag? But the war is not over yet."

"No, it's over."

Yinhui's deep voice revealed a complicated and deep meaning.

"From the moment the Victoria Army stepped into East Continent, the war was over."

Looking back, Yinhui tightened the black coat tightly.

"Next, the Victoria Army will successfully capture Dongzhou. Our mission has been completed. As for Xia Feng, this time his mission can only be solved by himself."

The military intervention of the world power Victoria in the name of a crusade has dealt a devastating blow to the Sakura family of the Eastern Kingdom.

In more than half a month, under the high-intensity advance of the army, the entire Dongzhou has been turned into a hell filled with gunpowder.

Xia Feng had expected this result long ago, and in a sense, the current scene was all thanks to him.

However, when he really heard one cold and cruel battle report after another, under the seemingly calm appearance, he still had complicated emotions.

Of course, he didn't regret it. If he didn't intervene out of selfishness, then these cruel things would happen on the land of Xichuan.

It was inevitable, and at the same time he didn't want to excuse himself.

If this dispute that is destined to be unavoidable must find a sinner through the ages, no problem, he is willing to bear this crime.

He doesn't care about other people's definitions, and there is nothing great about what he does.

He is just an ordinary person who only protects the people he wants to protect, is there really something wrong with that?

In his heart, what is really wrong is not how to choose, but not to choose.

Xichuan, Xiye Mansion.

In the half month since the war started, the Nishinomiya mansion, which is the rear area, was not absolutely safe as predicted.

"boom!"

The door was pushed open, Hong Dao's body exuded a strong wave of origin stone, and he walked in covered in blood.

"Xia Feng, a total of 32 people have been killed."

With the Shenyue Knife in his mouth, Xia Feng gave an indistinct "En" while wrapping a bandage around his wrist.

At this time, the courtyard outside was a bloody scene.

The 32 assassins lying in a pool of blood were shocking. At the same time, in every corner of the mansion, at least more than 200 hospital guards died tragically.

Some people had their necks smeared with daggers, some were blown to pieces by explosives, and some were poisoned and turned purple and vomited black blood.

Soon, noisy footsteps came, and a large number of warriors poured into the courtyard again.

These people skillfully began to clean up the corpse, and then, the samurai with a samurai sword and a look of death took the place of the deceased again.

This was already the fourth assassination at the mansion of the Nishinomiya family after the outbreak of the Eastern Continent War.

The first time there were 2 assassins, the second time there were 8 assassins, the third time there were 12 assassins, and this time, the number of assassins has been increased to 32.

These 32 assassins are all proficient in assassination, the best of the best, but the number of dispatches can no longer be called assassination, this is simply a suicide attack.

Obviously, the Sakura Takeshi family is in a hurry.

The more violent the assassination, the more difficult the situation of the Sakura Takeshi family was. The successive defeats on the main battlefield had completely panicked Sakuratake Yamao.

In the house, after Xia Feng simply tied up the wound on his hand, the assassination was over, and the assassins were all killed by the red knives that entered later.

Inserting the Shenyue Knife back into the scabbard at his waist, Xia Feng let out a heavy breath.

"It's okay, come out."

The wooden plank on the ground was lifted, and Guigui was the first to get out in a daze. Afterwards, Qiancai, Nishinomiya Ling, and some female family members of the Nishinomiya family also climbed out one after another.

In order to cope with the unscrupulous assassination, people who were easily regarded as targets hid in the basement according to Xia Feng's request.

Although it looks very cowardly and embarrassing, but I have to say, the effect is great.

After crawling out, Qian Cai leaned to Xia Feng's side worriedly.

"Brother Xia Feng, you are injured!"

Xia Feng waved his hand that had just been bandaged.

"It's okay, I just got scratched by a dagger, and there is no bleeding anymore."

Chicai bent down.

"You tied it too loosely like this. I'll give you some medicine and tie it up again."

"Well, that's fine."

There was no worry on Guigui's face at all, instead he muttered optimistically.

"It's fun to hide so many people in the basement, but it's a bit boring after staying for a long time."

On the contrary, Nishinomiya Ling, who is the head of the family, turned red. Of course, he was not bored, but ashamed.

Wearing a very embarrassed appearance, Nishinomiya Lingyi said in words.

"Your Excellency Xia Feng, this is the last time I hide in the basement. The warriors of the Nishinomiya family are brave and good at fighting. As the head of the family, I have no reason to escape in embarrassment."

Xia Feng glanced at him like an idiot.

"Take a break, you are alive to be handsome. The other party uses extraordinary means to assassinate, and we use extraordinary means to deal with it. It is not shameful."

"But."

"It's nothing to worry about. I guess today's assassination will be the last wave. According to the front-line battle report, the vanguard of the Central Army has pushed to a position less than 200 kilometers away from the Dongzhou Prefecture. If this battle is won, the Sakurabu family will basically be defeated." Let's stop eating."

It has to be said that the assassins trained by Sakura Takeshi's family do have two skills, and the assassination methods are extremely tricky.

People like Nishinomiya Ling who straightened his neck and said, "As the head of the family, how can I avoid it in embarrassment", it seems that the previous life was too comfortable, or was praised too much by the servants, and he never had a meal. Big loss.

Although the samurai of the Nishinomiya family's nursing home are equally powerful, they still lack experience in dealing with such crazy assassinations.

If he hadn't pushed Nishinomiya Ling to the basement with his head in the early stage, this guy would have been cold.

the next day.

The latest intelligence came from the front.

According to the intelligence, according to rough statistics, more than 15 people were killed in the Sakurabu family army in this battle.

The Central Army, advancing eastward from the plain, was in full swing, and had captured a large city closest to Dongzhou Capital overnight.

The other two teams advancing eastward from the coast and mountains have basically reached the central position.

According to this trend, as long as the three armies encircle from the west, north, and south respectively, the Sakura Wu family, which is struggling to support, will only have two options left.

One, give up resistance, fully surrender, and unconditionally accept any disposal by the Victorian military.

Second, abandon the Dongzhou capital, and retreat to the eastern mountains before the encirclement is formed, and continue to linger on.

However, if the Sakura Takeshi family made the second choice, their situation would become the same as half a month ago, retreating to the mountains and forests, losing supplies, and being isolated and helpless.

For the former overlord, the end of this slow death is probably more uncomfortable than direct death.

Of course, the Sakura Takeshi family has a third choice.

That is to neither surrender nor run away, even if the last soldier is exhausted, he must fight to the end for the last word of honor.

To be honest, the only one who can make such an extreme choice from the heart is the head of the family, Yamao Sakuratake.

As for the generals and ordinary soldiers under him, since there is no hope of a comeback in the family, there is a high probability that they have lost their fighting spirit. What still supports them to continue fighting at this moment may only be the deep-rooted warrior spirit.

If the head of the family seemed to be in a daze and ordered to fight to the end even though he knew that the entire army would be wiped out, these generals would most likely obey.

But if that happens, it's the worst possible outcome for both parties.

Therefore, in order to resolve this worst result, the Central Army needs to complete a task of "killing people and killing people".

This task was the same as Xia Feng had completed at the end of the Dark Ages when the army of the infected and the last army of the empire were in a deadlock in the north.

That is, to destroy the enemy's brains that give orders.

When the enemy soldiers knew that there was no hope of a comeback, they were completely unable to receive the highest-level orders from the Patriarch.
