C688 Two Cities of the Wall (1/2)
Sakamoto Ryoma and Zhong Gangshentailang were known as the two generals of the Tide Reversing Faction, Sakamoto Ryoma's Sea Aid Society and Ceng Tai Lang's Land Aid Association were both extremely important forces.
In the past, Sakamoto Ryoma had provided a large amount of financial support to the Inverted Pie through the Southwest Maritime Trade and the arms trade.
Although Sakamoto Ryoma was good at business, and was able to make his business sound good, but he was not only limited to business, Mr. Ryoma's sword master, Thousand Leaves Master, who was a disciple of River City Bei Chen, could be considered as an expert amongst the swordsmen in Japan at that time.
Mr. Ryoma was the first one to rush to the top of the city in this crazy cage battle. Since the start of the battle, he had been holding back his anger. The eighth plan on his ship was obviously for the good of Japan, but the result was that everyone rolled their eyes at him. The entire reverse force looked at him with hostility, and some people even called him a traitor.
Mr. Ryoma knew, that if Xiao Letian did not support him, he would have been excluded from the forces in the room. Some would even lose his life.
In order to prove that he was not a traitor, Sakamoto Ryoma killed extremely crazily, his hands holding two Katana s, one short while the other one long. Two Colt Revolvers were stuffed on the ox-hide armed belt at his waist, the blood splashed all over the city like how the Katana split apart tigers, and the handgun hit white smoke all over the place.
”Long Mingjun …” ”Be careful of your back …” and Mr. Ryoma gasped for breath, with their backs facing towards each other.
”Well done, Mr. Ryoma, you used your blood to prove your loyalty. Others won't believe you, but I, Shentu Lang, will believe you …”
The Dragon Horse's nose felt sour and tears almost burst out of his eyes. ”Monarchs …” A bloody battle! ”Breaking through First City …” Under his excitement, the elites of the sea and land rescue teams started to expand their line of defense. The Osaka City, which had been unable to break through these last few days, was finally smashed to pieces.
”I've broken through …” Board load! He broke through … ”Board load!” The allied army on the battlefield was actually the same. Seeing the Tokugawa's flags being thrown down to the city walls one by one, the cheers were like waves after another.
The allied forces were domineering, while Deichuan's side was fighting with all their might. The de Chuan army who was retreating to the second city wall had reduced their defensive area, and their firepower had become even denser. The Gun's bullets rained down on the first city's wall, causing stone chips to fly everywhere.
Very quickly, Sakamoto Ryoma's left shoulder was bitten by a bullet. His blood couldn't be stopped even with a handkerchief, but he still continued to run atop the city walls, using his actions to boost the soldiers' morale.
Right at this moment, the city guards from First City were knocked aside, and Shan Xianyoupeng, who carried the main force of the army, rushed in: ”Slaughter the city! Slaughter the city! Slaughter the city! ” The crazy Shan Xianyoupeng raised his head and saw the injured Sakamoto Ryoma and Zhong Gangshentailang whose body was covered in blood.
”Screech ~ ~” Thank you for your hard work, General Xi Xianglongsheng has already seen your bravery, you have obtained the first contribution, please go back and rest! ”
”What?” Zhong Gangshentailang raged at the city wall like thunder, ”Shameless! ”You actually shamelessly stole our contribution …”
With regards to the insolent action of a warrior coming back halfway from the battlefield where he was about to win, Shan Xianyoupeng had already challenged the bottom line of the warrior spirit.
Sakamoto Ryoma pulled his sleeves: ”Don't be so violent, Shan Xianyoupeng represents the interests of the Changzhou vassal, the commander of this war is Xi Xianglongsheng, the leader of the Shimadzu Family, and the commander of the western village must consider the interests of the Changzhou vassal. This is a political matter, you don't understand …”
”It seems like Lord Xi Xiang is giving Changzhou vassal the credit of breaching the Heaven's Tower to the Changzhou vassal …”
Zhong Gangshentailang did not know what politics was, he only knew that this kind of behavior had already caused him to be humiliated. But the dignity of the commander on the battlefield was not to be challenged, so other than scolding people, he had no other choice.
Changzhou vassal's soldiers replaced the sea and land assistance teams to defend the city's walls. Musketeers began to shoot against the two cities.
The guard supported Sakamoto Ryoma as they walked to the front of Xi Xianglongsheng. Mr. Ryoma pushed aside the guard and bowed towards the commander, ”Luckily, the mission was completed.
It was only until now that Xi Xianglongsheng had a good impression of Sakamoto Ryoma, ”Un, Mr. Ryoma has worked hard. Your name will appear in the contribution book after the battle.
The Dragon Horse knew that it would not have any contribution later on, but it was not a recognition of contribution. After giving a deep bow, Mr. Ryoma returned to the rear camp.
At this time, Shan Xianyoupeng had already started his assault on the second city along with his primary matrix. The streets were densely filled with soldiers, and the Musketeers on top of the city walls was suppressing the enemy's firepower with all his might.
”Here's the duck …” Slaughter the city … Slaughter the city! ” Thousands of soldiers roared like wild beasts, causing the entire city to shake.
General De Chuan, who was in Heaven's Tower, sneered and looked down from above, ”It really is the Life Death Hell! ”I know that you all want to take revenge for what happened two hundred years ago. Alright then, I'll give you all a break …”
Following the command given by the general, a dozen city bricks were suddenly pushed out of the wall. Two Gatling machine guns were pushed out, and after training for half a year, one of them moved the crank at a uniform speed, the other started installing the bullet chain.
