The battle lasted for nearly five hours, and nearly two thousand ghost soldiers were killed. The Genji army and the Lieyang army also lost nearly four thousand people. This was still compared with the combat effectiveness of Bai Lin and other great gods.
There are dozens of warriors with supernatural powers in the Genji army participating in the battle. If we just rely on soldiers, I don't know if fifty or one hundred soldiers can kill one ghost soldier.
Most of the corpses of the ghost soldiers will rot automatically and will be wiped out in less than half a day, but some of them are not completely transformed, and the corpses will gradually breed poisonous insects. Qingming immediately ordered to gather the corpses of the ghost soldiers, pour them with kerosene and burn them.
To avoid future troubles.
Sure enough, Minamoto no Yorimitsu was in the army, and he immediately warmly invited Seimei and three others to a banquet, which was called a joint discussion of state affairs.
Seimei selected more than a dozen good-looking young men from the Lieyang Army as his personal soldiers, and went to the Genji Army for a banquet in a rather formal manner. Although they were members of the Caotai team, Seimei's pomp and demeanor were still worthy of him.
When I saw Minamoto no Yorimitsu again, he was already wearing a glittering golden cape. Although the neon-style flowering helmet seemed a bit exaggerated and funny to Bai Lin's aesthetics, it also showed his status to some extent. He was no longer a young man of the castle guard.
He is a general and has become the lord of this allied army.
Under Seimei's grand "introduction", Minamoto no Yorimitsu received Bai Lin with the highest courtesy, as if he were meeting him for the first time, without showing that he was an old acquaintance.
Bai Lin instantly understood what Minamoto Yorimitsu meant. He was indeed an official in the officialdom just like Seimei. Although the famous names and families under him were gathered under Genji, their loyalty was hard to say. Although Genji was under the banner of
The signboard of Qingjun is actually very empty-hearted. It seems that he has the intention of causing trouble, and some of his names are not justified.
But with Bai Lin, the "messenger of Amaterasu", it's different. In an instant, he has the moral high ground of "being ordered by God". For Minamoto Yorimitsu, it can be said to be a timely rain, and it is easier to pretend not to know him.
Adding a sense of mystery can convince these famous names and aristocratic families.
As for the authenticity of Bai Lin's identity, it is no longer important. With the recognition of the general, the great onmyoji, and the former crown prince, even if Bai Lin is a pig, he has become a sacred pig at this time, not to mention Bai Lin and his men.
The Shikigami's combat prowess has just been seen by all. Except for a few families that had just suffered heavy losses, most of the families readily accepted it and even wanted to worship Bai Lin.
They are all old foxes. Bai Lin didn't waste a lot of time. As long as he pretended to be sophisticated, kept his feet off the ground, and let Qingming perform some fancy rituals, the image of a living god would be settled.
Bai Lin Dama Jin Dao sat on the main seat that originally belonged to Minamoto no Yorimitsu in the big tent. All the major families came to worship one by one. Don't tell me, knowing that "the messenger of Amaterasu came in person", he was almost defeated by the ghost soldiers.
Genji's morale reached its highest peak in an instant.
Minamoto Boya and Seimei, who came with 5,000 people to vote, have also seen their status in Genji's tent rise, which I won't mention for the time being.
After a day's rest, the army continued to march towards Kyoto. The closer it got to Kyoto, the worse the weather became. The dark clouds in the sky seemed to have piled up into cloud mountains. There was no distinction between day and night on the ground. There were strong winds from time to time and heavy rain came at any time.
They walked away, and some ghost soldiers took advantage of the rain to launch a surprise attack, but they were all repelled by Bai Lin and others.
When they arrived outside the city of Kyoto, they were actually already exhausted, but Minamoto no Yorimitsu beat the drums and gave the order to continue marching and attack the city with all their strength. It's not that Minamoto norimitsu and Seimei were not considerate of the sergeants, but tonight was the night of the full moon, and Emperor Ryuujin
We will head towards the Imperial City and wait until tomorrow. The ceremony has been completed in front of Tamamo and the day lilies have cooled down, so there is no need to attack the city.
There used to be a large number of villages outside Kyoto, but now there were no traces of people. Along the way, I saw gnawed bones scattered everywhere, and there seemed to be many sneaky hiding places in the darkness. This horrifying scene seemed to
Everyone is no longer in the human world, but already in the underworld.
Seimei built a moving big fire basin and illuminated the Chinese army's flag. At this time, the emblem of Amaterasu had been added to the flag. If they hadn't looked at this symbol from a distance, many soldiers would have been frightened.
Got brave.
"Coming!" Minamoto Yorimitsu shouted.
Bai Lin followed his gaze and saw many dark figures standing in front of the "short imperial city wall" in the distance. When he took a closer look, he saw that they were all Imperial Guard soldiers who had been transformed into ghost soldiers. Maybe they were also soldiers.
There were at least four to five thousand strong men who were captured.
On the city wall is also a row of black-armored ghost soldiers, holding strong bows and crossbows, and there is also a familiar face - the Lord of Arakawa.
Minamoto Yoriguang stopped striking the gold, with a very solemn look on his face. Even though the Genji army far surpassed the enemy, the opponent was a ghost soldier who did not know pain and fear. The combat effectiveness of the five thousand army was already much stronger than his own. The Lord of Arakawa should not be underestimated.
I don’t know any strange tricks to press the bottom of the box.
"Seimei..." Minamoto no Yorimitsu frowned into the character "川" and couldn't help but glance at Seimei beside him.
Qingming remained silent, but stared at the sky above the Imperial City. Bai Lin looked up and found that the dark clouds over the Imperial City were dispersing in all directions, as if someone was driving away the dark clouds with a huge fan.
"Fujiwara Akiko's ceremony has begun. When the dark clouds dissipate and the bright moon shines in the sky, the Emperor's Liquid will fall. We can't wait any longer!" Seimei said through gritted teeth.
With that said, Seimei began to summon shikigami, the Great Tengu Mifeng, Black and White Douji, Aoden Xing... Even low-level shikigami like the three Kama Itachi brothers were summoned, and he also transformed into Hakuzo Lord in a burst of white light.
At this time, Qingming obviously no longer cares whether his identity as a half-demon is known to others.
"The Four Heavenly Kings Yorimitsu!" Minamoto Yorimitsu shouted: "Everyone obeys the order!"
All the soldiers loudly accepted their orders. Watanabe Tsuna and Bubu Jiwu both put on long-handled swords and stood at the front, looking as if they were ready to die.
"Ghost soldiers occupy my imperial city! Kill my subjects! Your Majesty is in the imperial city now, all soldiers! Follow me into the city and rescue your Majesty! Amaterasu is above! Die in battle and ascend to heaven!" Minamoto no Yorimitsu said with a long voice.
The sword struck the shield and he shouted loudly.
"Fight and die and ascend to heaven!" "Fight and die and ascend to heaven!" Tens of thousands of troops shouted in unison. Bai Lin sighed slightly in his heart, let them believe all this. If there is no will to die, there is no need to fight today's battle, just let them
Just wait for death.
"Attack the entire army!" Minamoto Yorimitsu ordered.
Immediately, the warriors from all the major families summoned the power of God. At a glance, there were many colorful ones. The army started slowly, and then the sergeants ran faster and faster, forming a charge. At this time, no one could help them.
If he stops timidly, he will be trampled to death by those behind him.
"Master Bai, please take the initiative to attack Arakawa!" Bai Zangzhu turned around and said to Bai Lin. He still had no confidence in the master of Arakawa, but he would be able to exert his combat effectiveness in a large army.
Bai Lin waved his hand, and a katana appeared in his hand. This was originally the sword of Minamoto Norimitsu, the famous "Boyoshi Kiri Yasutsuna". He nodded towards Bai Zangzhu, and Bai Lin raised his head from the horse.
He jumped up high and flew towards the formation of ghost soldiers in the distance.
