◇ ◇
Celebrating sixteen years (1611) on the eve of December and July -
An assault by 1,000 Toyotomi troops with Sansei Ishida as general general began.
The sky on the Osaka, where the clouds finally fell out, is stained with orange as if it reflected his burning heart.
In the meantime, the intense voice of Jiuya Ono, who had been entrusted with the vanguard, was tearing apart the nasty Shogun Army.
"Guuuuuuuuuu!! I'll smash you!!
The spear-wielding Jimura of the gods and the soldiers he led overwhelmed the Sakai army that was consolidating the plain entrance of Osaka Castle.
Compared to the rigid and delicate breakthrough of Yoshihiro Shimazu, "Shimajimazu", who cut ahead during Sekigahara, he is rough and rough, but only temper has not lost him either.
That was as if clearing up the puffs that had accumulated so far.
"Come on! Get back in line and ask Lord Satake for help!
Sakai's army general, Sakai Jiaji (Sakai no Tsugu), gave desperate instructions while chewing on his remorse, but was undone by the impending intimidation of Jiuji's chamber. And the Sakai army unilaterally reduced the number of soldiers.
What was even more inconvenient to the Sakai Army was that the Buddhist Sabaki Army did not move at all.
Through Hideyoshi Tai, he is bonded with Sansei Ishida in a hard way. As a result, he hesitated to storm for the Mitsune flag that had left the castle.
Of the generals who then consolidate the east, there is only one team left to rely on.
That was the Maida team.
However, Shinjichi Maida is only twenty-six years old and his younger brother Shinji is also a twenty-four year old who is in charge of the general as a nominee for Shinnochi Maida. It was the first line for them, and they were in formation, supported by the elders around them.
The battlefield you see for the first time, the fierce bump of soldiers you try, and the temper of enemy generals you try for the first time...
All of this overwhelmed their brothers, and they could hardly give instructions.
In the meantime, without waiting for their instructions, some soldiers popped up behind Mitsune, but against the Toyotomi army, which was no longer transformed into Shura, it was like watering a burning stone.
And the soldiers scattered their lives every once in a while.
The brothers of Shinji and Shinji, who heard the news, shook up completely, finally letting the Toyotomi army go a long way without their hands or feet.
The Toyotomi army, thus lightly breaking through the siege net on the eastern side of Osaka Castle, pushes forward with increasing momentum.
"No more enemies before Jiayang!! Run all at once like this. Ooh!!
- Ooh, ooh, ooh!
Sansei and the soldiers were united, trying to pierce Okayama in a straight line exactly like a spear.
But that was when I reached the foot of Shinoyama, which is at the end of Maru Maida...
"Let it be!!
And from the right hand came the army into the force.
It was Fujido Army, which was fiercely attacking Maidamaru. The number of troops is approximately 5000.
Takati, who excelled at seeing the opportunity, saw that the momentum of the Toyotomi army was increasing, and he quickly rushed the soldiers together if he could not stop it.
It should also be noted that the Maeda and Iui armies, which were also attacking Maeda Maru, are now under attack of the Fort Long Residence at the behest of Jiayang.
In other words, the attacking squad on Makitamaru is dressed to have been attacked as it is.
- As it is, it takes the form of a longitudinally stretched formation being poked across the side of the belly.
Intuitively so enlightened, the feet of the Toyotomi Army dull naturally.
If it had been the previous Sang-chung, he would have been in a hurry here, but now he was different.
As he quickly proceeded with his horse, he followed it beside the horse of Goto and the soldier who would go forward.
"Soldier Hall again! Forward command, please!
"Oops! I'll take care of it, but what will the Lord do? No way......"
Sansei nodded small and replied, as the soldier also urged the tip of his words as he raised his nigga and his mouth horn.
"I will avenge my friends"
Mitsune's "friend" came to mind... it was Yoshihei Otani -
In Matsuo Mountain, Yoshihei scattered as a shield for his son Yoshiji.
Mitsune did not forget that it was Fujido's army that took its neck.
- One day I'll let 'Friends' mindless clear up!
Even when he named himself "Zongying" and was committed to the establishment of the school in Kyo, and when Hideyoshi decided to "coexist" with the Shogun, the thoughts held in his chest continued to burn as his living power.
A great opportunity to finally patrol.
His strong determination to accomplish it in his own hands had been firmly conveyed to the soldier, even if he did not speak.
The soldier also said, "You big fool," and when he snapped small, he kicked his horse's belly hard and jumped to the front line.
"Wow!! Terra!! Not if you're stopping here!! Keep on following me!!
And when the voice of the soldiers was whipped, and it echoed in the hearts of the soldiers of the Toyotomi army, they forcefully resumed their advance.
And only a team of 3000 soldiers led by the remaining Sansei collided from the front with Fujido Army.
It was the dawn of a battle known as the Battle at the Foothills of Shinoyama in future generations.
Well, Sansei, who broke up with the soldier again, quickly changed his mind.
And the extraction he took was' assault ', not' interception '.
"Move on!!
At the same time that the soldiers on the front line burst into the Fujido army, Mitsune also issued a decree to the soldiers on the rear.
"Ugh!!
- Dodd dodd dodd!!
Fujido's advance is slightly blunt when simultaneous fire is fired from the rear to support the soldiers making the assault.
But Fujido Takati, the general of Fujido's army, is also a famous general.
He gave instructions out loud when he quickly re-established his posture without panicking about the offense of his unexpected opponent.
"They're pigs! Wait for me to come in! Long gun!! Previous!!
- Babba!
By the moment of Takati's decree, the spears are simultaneously directed in front of the Sansei Squad.
But the Toyotomi army continued to move forward without fright.
And close enough, Sang-sung's voice echoed.
"Cover the crossbow!!
The soldiers, who had advanced just in front of the spear tip of the Fujido Army, stopped their feet perfectly and set up a tiny crossbow on their back.
The Fujido army could not react properly to a weapon that had never been seen as a trained, flowing operation many times.
And......
"Whew!!
Countless arrows were unleashed over the head of the Fujido army, along with an intense caller that
Of course, it was the grenade that was attached to the arrow.
- Daddy, daddy, daddy!!
A bomb that explodes at close range. From there bounced pieces of iron were relentlessly bathed by the soldiers of the Fujido army.
"Wow!
With the screaming, the power of the gripped spear is dull.
Mitsune didn't miss that gap.
"Destroy them!!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa!
The momentum of the Toyotomi Army, which bracketed a blade on the gun and resumed its advance towards the Fujido Army like a bullet, was faint.
That's as if Sang-sung's thoughts on the 'friends' of the years he had had moved on.
Mitsune was leaning nervously in her own chest as she saw the Fujido army slammed apart.
I was the only one who wanted to clear up my own carelessness for losing Yoshihei, who was his understanding and best friend.
I would have left this place to Goto and the soldiers, and he would be in a position to command the main unit's assault.
I know that no one would point that out to me if I were a wise guy.
But since then, he has decided to be 'honest' with his mind.
Now here, if I do not clear my mind with my friends, what face shall I make of my friends when I go into the afterlife?
Once scattered, it's the same life.
Then I want to burn down that life without leaving a trace of remorse.
- If you don't know what's going to happen tomorrow, you'll survive the present! That's the samurai's life!
"I'm Fujido Takati and Tokugawa Jiayang, I'll have them both turned into necks!! A greedy man!!
The moment I shouted like that, the words of the late Hideyoshi Tai came to mind.
- You get everything you want. Don't spare any effort for that. That's how heaven smiles at the guy who lives!
That is exactly the same thing that came to mind during the battle of Sekigahara when Rushui Kuroda, who was in Kyushu, decided to march to Osaka Castle.
In other words, at this moment, "The Greed Genealogy" led from Hideyoshi to Rushui, and now to Sansei.
Hideyoshi, Rushui and Hanbei Takenaka don't feel like they're staring at him with a smile on their face.
Nature and his mouth burned.
"Your Highness... Sakichi would have been an interesting man, wouldn't he?
When he snaps like that, he moves the horse forward
And when I took the crossbow myself, I aimed at one point.
It was the enemy general, Fujido Takati.
"Prison hall. Forgive me for being stupid."
If the arrow hits and the hit is bad, Gao Tiger will lose his life.
That would be a huge loss for the Shogun.
Maybe it will be such a blow that the ground that makes the world of heavenly Tahei will shake.
Mitsune called herself a "fool" only because he recognized it.
Perhaps if you were Yoshihei Otani, you must have said this to him with an arrow.
- Don't get caught up in personal grievances. For the sake of the world, see what you can see.
But he pulled the trigger without getting lost.
- Dosh!
One arrow advances in a straight line to the high tiger.
There was nothing to block the destination of the arrows that ripped the wind apart.
And......
- Dogan!!
and the arrow grenade exploded in front of the high tiger.
And the arrow pierced his shoulder deeply.
"Guha!!
As soon as there was a short scream, the giant of the high tiger collapsed.
"My lord! My lord! Ooh!
The famous warlords, who heard the shouts of the general, rush to begin to consolidate his surroundings.
It was at that moment that Mitsune didn't even know when she was waiting...
And when he raised his mouth, he made a decree with a roaring voice unto heaven.
"There's the Admiral over there! Start shooting!!
Quickly loaded from behind, the soldiers of the Toyotomi army, who pulled the shooting iron, unleashed artillery simultaneously against the warlords who were solidifying themselves.
- Dodd, dodd, dodd!!
If we have to somehow protect the still breathing High Tiger, his loyalists will be exactly 'shields' to cover the High Tiger.
"Whaaaaaa!!
"And protect my lord!!
Many generals, including the clan Fujido Takashi (Torino), feed on the uninterrupted artillery attack, making it fold and fall.
Sansei kept staring at the look on his face with a rugged look.
"You will never be allowed to be alarmed! Attack! Keep attacking!
- Dodd, dodd, dodd!
As I echo Sang's words, here comes the bursting sound of a cannon with its ears stuck.
When this was no longer the case, the soldiers of the Fujido army, who lost their morale and lost their commanding generals, had no way left than to scatter and flee.
- No, no, no, no! Help!!
- Run! Run! Run!
Fujido's flag disappeared from the battlefield as he mirrored, and the carcasses of the hived generals piled up around the high tiger.
That's how Mitsune and Fujido clashed, only four and a half minutes later (30 minutes later)......
The Toyotomi army 'destroyed' the Fujido army until it was completely skinless.
Sansei, who saw it around, stopped the soldiers from attacking,
"That's it! And then take your neck and settle it!!
And, skip the instructions.
It was a great opportunity for the soldiers to cite military merit, forgetting their tiredness, and flying in unison to the samurai in their helmets.
But it was then.
"Lord Ishida! No more!!
And a certain army approached before him.
Sansei stared at the general who led the army and opened his eyes wide to a familiar appearance.
"Mountain castle..."
The general is a front-line, helmet-wearing figure who follows the word 'love'.
He was Naoke Yamajo Shou-Jitsu, a military master of Uesugi Jingsheng and a "friend" of Mitsune.
But even "friends" once were, they are now divided into enemies and allies.
"Crossbow, cover it!!
Mitsune skipped instructions to the soldiers who were after the neck of the high tiger.
Quickly lined up, the Toyotomi clad their crossbows against the looming Upper Cedar Army.
But when Mitsune went forward with his army to Mitsune, he said, "Stop!" and commanded the soldiers of his own army.
A concurrency that slowly advances the horse to near Mitsune.
Mitsune on the other hand also slowly advanced the horse.
It would otherwise be a nostalgic reunion.
Because they are friends united by strong bonds.
But on this occasion, if one commands you to "attack," instantly this place will be a blood-washing misery.
We both fully understand that.
That is why words that came out of the mouth of continuity were things that I did not think were intended for my enemies.
"Now my Uesugi army has been ordered to attack 'Maidamaru' by His Holiness the Great. I hope you'll come through here."
Mitsune's mouth loosened slightly because she felt no hostility at all to the words of concurrence.
And he explained the sincerity of the word of concurrence.
"In other words, I will not allow my army to hold back on Takati Fujido. Instead, Uesugi misses our army, right?
"That's Lord Ishida. You can talk fast. Fujido is no longer dying. If the victory of Lord Ishida is obvious to anyone's eyes, let any further pursuit be instead a bad review of Lord Ishida. You don't have time to get lost in that. As soon as possible, the forces of Maeda and Iui are beginning to expand so as to protect the headquarters of the Great Hall. If they're completely in formation, it'll be hard to break through even Ishida Hall."
"Still a taller man...... well, that would be good. What the Lord has said is good. It's a shame about Takati's neck, but it's not his main hope to fight the Lord because of it"
The main unit of the Toyotomi army, already led by the soldiers, is pushing far ahead.
Mitsune was hunched that Tokugawa Jiayang could not have allowed the assault if it was that easy.
And it became clear from his concurrent advice that he was right.
If you're eating roadgrass poorly here, even if the troops he leads rendezvous with, you could end up in irrevocable circumstances.
Sansei said, "Put the crossbow down! All units, proceed!" and gave instructions to the soldiers.
Soldiers moving in unison, according to his orders.
Beyond such soldiers, he also tried to leave the spot with a concurrence.
But when he advanced the horse only a little, he was put on his back with words of continuity.
"Do you think this has fulfilled Lord Otani's carelessness?
It had a sharp tone to pierce, but Sansei didn't even try to stop the horse's leg or answer his question.
So when he looked back toward Mitsune's back, he spoke his true words out loud to him as he went away.
"It is my dream that the day will come when we will drink together again! You're never gonna die!
When he finished hearing the words, Sansei quickened his horse's legs.
The warmth of the two 'friends' disappears from their hearts as they leave the foothills of Shinoyama.
And what overshadowed my mind by trying to be replaced was the scorching hatred of my beloved Tokugawa Jiayang.
Jiayang is Teng Hideyoshi, the "father", who took everything he had built as his possession and slaughtered his beloved family and ministers in a tragic manner.
I have lived my days of sleeping gall for eleven years now, and all but because I have 'dreamed' of this moment.
"You're the one who'll never stop!
An impending assault on Sekigahara just a few steps away.
The grin that Jiayang showed back then still creeps me out of my head.
And the movement of his mouth...
"Thanks...... right. I have to thank you too."
Yes... he was thankful for heaven now.
Once again, we are lucky to have the opportunity to stick a spear of righteousness on Tokugawa's head.
But......
The gear of history was cruel against him everywhere......
That was on the verge of his joining Goto again with the soldier and storming Jia Kang's main unit, which was in havoc as a result of an ambush by Tsuda Kiyohachi and Mr. Heavy's parents and children.
"Taiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiku!! Retreat! Whoa!
How dare Governor Ono, bearing the stamp of Kim's "Chisei Ladybug", break into the battlefield.
It should be noted that the stamp of the horse in "Thousand Cheng Ladies" is the mark of the Toyotomi family, and it is the iron code that the orders of the Admiral with his stamp on his back should never be broken.
"Such an idiot... why...?
Sansei couldn't believe what the governor did.
But behind his feelings, the soldiers of the Toyotomi Army, who saw the stamp of the horse of "Thousand Ladies", stopped the foot of the assault perfectly. And he kept walking away from the battlefield, following the orders of the governor who waved the flag of the stamp in desperate shape.
"Don't go! Jiayang's neck is right in front of you! Our army's victory is almost there!!
Sansei flies instructions to flip to the soldiers diligently with tears of blood.
But the voice was only vanished in vain by the footsteps of the great army.
"When it does, it's just me!!
"Fool!! Stop!!"
Another soldier desperately pulled him off when Sansei found him trying to make his way home alone.
"Get off me! This is all I can give away!
"Don't go!! I've already decided!!
"What! If you win or lose, you haven't decided yet!!
When he shouted that far, the soldier finally grabbed his neck disappointingly.
"Ugh! What are you doing? Ha ha ha ha..."
"No, you can't let go until you're grown up!
Words disappear from Mitsune's mouth, and his face, which has lost air, gradually turns blue.
But the soldiers did not loosen their hands again until the fire of hatred was extinguished from his eyes.
And finally, he let go roughly, weighing the power of Mitsune's body.
"Guha......! Hey, hey..."
Sansei was finally able to breathe and couldn't move off the spot.
Again, the soldier told him with a bite of remorse.
"I've already decided on 'harmony'..."
Mitsune's thin eyes open ever wide.
"Nah...... what!? 'Harmony'......!?
Then he finally calmed down, and the governor's cry came into his head.
"Yoshi-sama has decided 'harmony' ah!! So the war is over!!
and…….
"Master Yoshi... why..."
Mitsune, who is still unable to move.
Soon the color of the sky has changed from orange to ruthless purple.
And as many soldiers left, the army of Jiayang became visible.
Then…….
I jumped into his eyes...
He looked like Tokugawa Jiayang.
Coincidentally, Sansei and Jiayang, who have eyes for each other.
Jiayang, unlike in Sekigahara, her hair and clothes are messy, and she is certain that her life is in danger.
From his bright blue face, he must have also been caught in a fear he had never tasted before.
But......
It was the moment I captured Sang-seong's appearance in its eyes......
- Nitali......
And Jiayang smiled.
And when he moved his mouth wide, Sansei, who saw it, was stunned.
"Ah... Ri... but... and... well..."
That's the exact same word...
As Mitsune's face twisted into a shamble, he cried to tremble in heaven.
"Wow!
Celebrating sixteen years (1611) December 17.
Called the Battle of Okayama for future generations, that battle, in which Jiayang was supposedly in the most critical situation since the Battle of Triangahara, thus closed the curtain.
The sun sank completely, and the tears of Sansei cried forever in the night sky dominated by the pitch-black darkness -
