I burn the sky in Kyoto

Afterwards, a monk handed over to Li Wei a stack of land deeds and scrolls recording temple material personnel.

On the contrary, this made Li Wei feel incomprehensible for a while.

"Why?" Levi asked.

"Pursue sentient beings, the Buddhist scriptures can't save the world, so we want to choose another method, I want to see the world where flowers are blooming." Master Lianhua looked at Li Wei, and at this time he knelt down to face Li Wei. To Levi,

"The Kakyoin family and the 14 temples they control, 87 monks are willing to swear allegiance and become monks of the Fujiwara family..."

……

At this time, in the camp of Genji's army, Kamizumi Nobu arranged for the warriors to take a simple rest.

He was not in a hurry to attack. At this time, Kyoto was like a turtle in a urn, and it was as easy as picking something out of a bag to capture it.

With 500 ashigaru provided by other daimyos, plus [-] samurai, and less than [-] defenders in Kyoto, this battle is [-] against [-].

Their spies also went to check the defenses in Kyoto, and found that the warriors in Kyoto didn't practice swordsmanship, didn't learn weapons, and they didn't know what kind of broken stick they were tinkering with all day long, so their combat effectiveness was so weak.

Especially the Master Fujiwara, Kamizumi only felt that that person was as vulnerable as a dead bone in a tomb.

As the master and coach of everyone, he doesn't practice martial arts, and he doesn't even come to inspect the city walls. It seems that he lives in the mansion all day, singing, drinking and having fun every night. He is simply a scum among generals.

Kamizumi only felt that Hojo Daimyo was such a hero, and it really shouldn't be defeated by such a person.

His thinking at this time changed from how to break through the capital to how to complete this request with the least loss, and it would be best if he could break the city without dying.

The Umizumi family has gradually withered since the death of the sword sage Umizumi Ise.

The Umizumi Ise Swordsman is like a treasure to the Umizumi family, but it is also like a curse. He seems to have absorbed all the luck of the entire Umizumi family by himself. From then on, no one from the Umizumi family can surpass Da Swordsman.

He needs to win this war perfectly, and then replace Hojo Tokimune as the daimyo in Kyoto, so that the Umizumi family can reproduce the strength of the era when the sword master was born, and make the Umizumi family great again.

Moreover, there is now an uncut jade in the Shangquan family who even exceeds the qualifications of a sword master thousands of years ago. As long as you spend resources to carve that uncut jade into a jade article, and once again achieve the title of the Shangquan family's sword master family, then let Shangquan The Quan family has survived for thousands of years.

"General, please see the ninjas lurking in Kyoto." An attendant saluted.

"Let him in." Kamizumi said.

So, a ninja walked into the tent, saluted Nobu Uizumi respectfully, and handed over the information of the entire Kyoto and the defense map to Nobu Kamizumi.

"General Kamizumi, I think that the Fujiwara family is a formidable enemy who wants to burn Kyoto and destroy Hojo. We must take it seriously." The ninja returned.

However, according to the information, the master of the Fujiwara family still hasn't even left the house for several days, and it seems that he and the princess of the Fujiwara family have been nesting in the mansion all the time.

Kamizumi snorted coldly with disdain: "Fujiwara? He's just a weakling, vulnerable. If he dares to join the war, he will never return."

Chapter 190 Four: The advantage is mine

"But the general..."

"Needless to say, I have Admiral Yagyu, who is the leading swordsman in the capital of the gods, and he is determined to defeat the capital." Umizumi said.

No wonder Umizumi is so inflated that he doesn't take Kyoto seriously.

In their field of vision, this is 5000 versus 500, a [-]-fold difference in the number of people. Each of these [-] people can drown [-] people with just a dip in water.Anyone who changes it will turn into an ancestor on the spot, swelling to the limitless.

Even if your 500 people are [-] swordsmen, it is impossible to win with such a huge gap in numbers.

In the Xuzhou battle of a certain transportation team leader, he had a small advantage of 80 against 60. It is my theory that he can put forward such a brilliant opinion.

As for Nobumi Umizumi, this advantage in numbers and strength is equivalent to letting Yamata no Orochi attack the ant nest, and there is absolutely no possibility of failure.

However, Kamizumi Nobu is still very cautious. Although he despises the enemy strategically, he attaches great importance to the enemy tactically.

He has been familiar with military books since he was a child, and he understands the truth that a lion fights a rabbit with all his strength. What's more, what he needs now is not just to capture the capital, but to capture the capital without injury.

So he still planned to act according to the original plan. Waiting for him to pass the message to the crowd, the coalition forces invited troops, opened the city gate inward, marched in the outfield, and encircled and suppressed on both sides.

"General, here is a piece of information that is hidden very deeply. It is a secret letter from Daimyo Hojo. Because the information is so dense, it can only be read by you alone."

Respectfully, the ninja took out a scroll with the word "secret" written on it.

"Then all the staff members go out first." Umizumi waved his hand and said to the staff and samurai around him.

Because the ninja took out the secret order of Hojo Tokimune, he had to be cautious.

Not only because Hojo Tokimune is the original Kyoto daimyo, but also because if his Kamizumi family wants to get mixed up with the Kyoto daimyo, they must find a way to kill Hojo Tokimune secretly, so Kamizumi is so secretive to Hojo Tokimune. Pay attention to.

After the other staff and samurai had left, the ninja handed over the secret scroll to Umizumi, and he himself stood behind Umizumi.

Umizumi opened the scroll suddenly, but found that the scroll was actually a pillow-e (chungongtu, which later gave birth to a branch of Ukiyo-e) with a terrifying scale, and it was not the simple line painting of this era. wind, but completely realistic.

No matter how many military books he has read since he was a child, he has fallen into an unparalleled bewilderment at this moment.

"Pfft!"

A hand pierced through his heart from behind, and the ninja mask behind him was taken off. At this moment, he became a monster without any facial features.

And the beauty painted on the pillow on the scroll also lost all facial features, turning into a monster with only a body but no face.

"Have you ever thought that all the information you see is what I want you to see." The faceless ghost's body became flat in an instant, as if turning into a starfish that had been eating All the spilled blood was swallowed up.

This is the real plan of the monsters. When the Genji army separates the monk soldiers from the warrior troops, letting the monk soldiers lead the way and the warriors follow up, then their monsters can perfectly execute the plan of replacing the civet cat with the prince.

Genji's army has always thought that this war is purely a struggle for hegemony with the princes in Kyoto, and it is a power struggle among human beings.

But they didn't expect that the essence of this war was actually a war with monsters, and they didn't have a good plan to deal with monsters at all.

After a few heart-to-heart talks with Nobumi Umizumi, the distorted Faceless Ghost changed into Nobumi Umizumi's appearance.

He picked up the scroll on the ground, and looked at the pillow painting on it with narrowed eyes.

The appearance painted in this picture is the faceless ghost himself. It was originally the most special kind of monster born in the dark. It can mimic various shapes and change any structure of the body at will.

For it, there is no concept of "gender" at all. As long as it wants, it can even pinch itself into a peerless beauty whose figure is so good that it can affect people's sense of size to complete the task.

The last time I secretly ate Hojo Daimyo was using this method. I had a private meeting with Hojo Daimyo while the priests and monks were away, and then mimicked him after eating Hojo Tokimune.

It's just that it can only have one kind of mimicry at the same time, and the shape it made by itself is counted among them. Once it gives up the previous mimicry, it can never change back.

After receiving all the memories of Kamizumi Shin, the Faceless Ghost also felt that this time was really dangerous.

After all, Nobumi Umizumi is a member of the sword master family with the blood of Susan. He is a swordsman himself, and even in terms of personal force alone, he is enough to fight with a great swordsman without defeat in nearly a hundred moves.

Therefore, when the mimetic ninja before the Faceless Ghost proposed to meet alone, everyone had no objection, because they all believed in Umizumi's own strength, even the world's number one swordsman, could not kill silently kill him.

It's a pity that none of them could have imagined that there is a monster with mimicry ability like the Faceless Ghost.

Even Levi's tracking technique (level C), a skill from the ancient Nordic witchers, couldn't perceive the faceless ghost under the mimic human.

Under various circumstances, the Faceless Ghost once again completed a wave of perfect stealing.

On the other hand, fortunately, the Faceless Ghost came alone, and the other ten disguised shogunate ninjas were still hiding outside.

Even if the shogunate army chose to separate the monk soldiers from the samurai, there are still many people from the temple family in the banner army, and these people are likely to find other ten people disguised as ninjas.

At this time, Nobumi Shangizumi, transformed by the Faceless Ghost, had a fierce look on his face. It wanted to use the identity of Nobumi Shangizumi to start clearing out these people from the temple family. Then, the other ten people were undercover together, as if controlling Once the Hojo family controlled all the samurai.

……

On the Kyoto side, the haze of war hangs over everyone's heads. The people of the Fujiwara family almost used more than half of their labor force to strengthen the city wall of Kyoto these days.

And after the Kakyoin family took the oath of allegiance, a large number of monks with muskets on their backs also joined the practice of the fire gun way and the defense of the city wall of Kyoto.

It's just that the man who looked like a detached monk put down his Zen staff and held a revolver, and the Buddhist beads on his body disappeared, replaced by grenade beads strung together like Buddhist beads.

If the Buddhist scriptures can't save the world, then the Buddha would pick up the wheel and use physics to convert the world.

The Genji shogunate wants to fight, so the monks behind their famous Jijingin will give the Genji shogunate a war to let them know the power of the merciful and merciful wheel-turning Buddha.

Under the light of Buddha, they will understand pain, feel pain, and accept pain.

Only when they understand what pain is, people in the world will want peace. Now, these monks understand what it means to "kill life to protect life".

Chapter 190 Five: Stealing

"The shogunate army is starting to move? Take a long way around Kyoto?" At this time, Li Wei looked at the information sent back by the ninja, and he already had doubts on his face.

According to intelligence, the original Genji shogunate's army should start attacking Kyoto after a day's rest.

At that time, it may be a long tug-of-war and a war of attrition. Li Wei's original plan was to find a perfect opportunity to release the stick of God during this period, preferably when they joined forces or gathered together.

If it doesn't work, Li Wei is also planning to recruit some people to play a trick similar to Huang Gai's, and let them join forces.

At that time, the people here also experienced some Tianxiu's large meteorite technique and the fire alliance.

It's just that Li Wei really didn't understand the operation of the shogunate army.

To the west of Kyoto is Hyogo Himeji Castle, which is also one of the five major capitals of the Sakura Country. Li Wei can only think that the shogunate army wants to join forces with other daimyo soldiers, and then gather an army of 5000 people to fight a war of attrition.

But Li Wei couldn't figure it out. It would be more advantageous to attack with east and west at the same time, but the general of the shogunate army still chose to join forces.

It's like playing a game where you can push the base in a wave, but you have to choose to go jungle, which is unpredictable.

Although there are more than 1 daimyo coalition forces, they are basically ashigaru, and the number of samurai is pitiful. The other three daimyo are like rice worms who want to reduce food consumption before winter. All pulled out, and his precious warriors did not participate in the battle.

At this time, if the shogunate army wants to bypass Kyoto, at least it needs to travel nearly [-] kilometers more before they can detour to the west and join forces with the daimyo allied forces.

And along the way, they may encounter strange things and monsters, so what are they planning?

This kind of operation really made Li Wei completely at a loss as to how to deal with it. He originally thought that the opponent was the king, but he looked like bronze, but Li Wei couldn't face this war in the same way as facing bronze. .

When the enemy makes a stupid operation, one is really stupid, and the other is that there must be some conspiracy.

Li Wei could only think about it carefully, but after thinking for a long time, even if Eva analyzed it, he couldn't find a good guess.

Even Eva with artificial intelligence needs a lot of data support to make calculations for analysis, but the other side was well prepared, and it suddenly seemed like a show started.

"Come up to the city wall with me, I'd like to see what kind of medicine is sold in the gourds of these elite shogunate." Li Wei finished speaking and was about to leave Fujiwara Mansion.

"My lord, the food and military supplies have been arranged. Do we need to deploy from the east wall to the west wall?"

"Deploy half first, and the rest will remain on the east wall. The same is true for personnel."

"Hay!"

Li Wei soon came to the city wall, but he could only see a haze from a distance, tens of kilometers away, no matter how good the vision was, he couldn't see the situation clearly at this time.

With the information sent back by more ninjas, the shogunate army indeed left the original station, and always kept a distance of about [-] kilometers from the city wall of Kyoto and moved towards Himeji Castle in the west.

Moreover, the original garrison was completely deserted at this time, and the ninja still found some food, grass, bows and arrows that could not be taken away. It seemed that the shogunate warriors marched away in a hurry.

"My lord, can we take the initiative to go out of the city to stop the attack and intercept the shogunate army here." Koizumi came to Li Wei, bowed and said.

"No, I suspect fraud. Although the shogunate army moved in a hurry, they did not panic. Besides, our main combat power comes from firecrackers and detonating arrows, and our number is still too small." Li Wei replied to Koizumi.

Going out of the city to fight is really too risky. Even if Li Wei's entire army attacks, the shogunate army is ten times as large as them. As long as they are surrounded layer by layer, it will be difficult for Li Wei to break through even if he goes out in person.
