Chapter 425 Blood Oath

 Shima Shengmeng said slowly.

"Three hundred and fifty years ago, the Kanto imperial family headed by the Bando Hachihei family followed the first shogun Minamoto Yoritomo.

They went through all kinds of difficulties and won the Genpei War, supported Lord Kokata, and established the Kamakura shogunate.

From then on, the imperial family received the reward of Genji in Kawachi, shared the world, and blessed their descendants."

All the Ji warriors looked at each other, this was different from what they thought.

Isn't it time to offer them enough benefits in exchange for their allegiance? How can we say it has gone down in history?

The battle between Genpei and Yuanping are all bad old jokes. Which Ji samurai hasn't grown up listening to them, and his ears have already developed calluses.

Dao Shengmeng ignored their whispers and just relaxed his voice, whispering over their hum.

"Back then, Takauji, the first Ashikaga shogun, was forced by the imperial court and fled to Kyushu with one man and one horse.

As a direct descendant of the Kawachi Genji, he called upon the descendants of the Hime samurai who were stationed in Kyushu and Shikoku by the Kamakura shogunate.

The people of the imperial family gathered under her imperial white banner, shouting slogans of loyalty to the pillars of the Wu family. Eighty thousand Wu family members went to Luo and conquered the world again.

Afterwards, the Muromachi shogunate was established, and the Ashikaga Shogun rewarded me, and I gained more than a hundred years of honor and wealth!"

She was talking to herself, and Warrior Ji finally couldn't help but ask.

"What does this have to do with us!"

Daosheng glared at her fiercely, as if he was biting someone, making her tremble in fright.

"Of course it does! Look! What is this!"

She took off the items on her body and pulled away the satin, revealing a sword.

This sword has a simple style, similar to the Tang Dynasty sword and is flat and long, slightly shorter than the Da Dao, and slightly longer than the rib gap.

Warrior Ji has been dancing with spears and clubs since she was a child. She has insights into weapons and talks with each other.

"It looks like a Tang knife."

"It is much shorter than the Tang Dynasty sword, but the style is made in the Tang Dynasty."

"What's this?"

"I seem to have heard of a sword like this. It seems like... it can't be..."

"It's Edgeworth! That's what Edgeworth looks like!"

"It's really a royal sword. The pattern on the hilt is made by the imperial court and cannot be overridden. There has been no such craftsmanship since the fall of the emperor."

"Isn't the sword in the hands of Lord Gongfang?"

Dao Shengmeng was very satisfied that they recognized this object.

When Akechi Mitsuhide handed over to her, only a few people knew that she was taking the sword with her on the road. This time it was exposed to the public.

Isn’t life difficult for Peking University and Iga Public School? It’s much better than before.

The Peking University and the people were bullied by the nuns and martial arts family of Yamato, and the Iga people were even more suffering in the feudal country. Both sides were the poor people of the B country who were kicked out of the guardian system.

Although it has been torn into pieces now, it is definitely better than before when we only talk about life and status.

But people's eyes are always looking upward. If something is better, it will be better, and if it is better, it will be even better.

It is not easy to be grateful, and resentment is common. The so-called fighting for kindness and enmity is human nature.

Those who can restrain their nature and adhere to morality are saints. Most people just want to get better and better.

Peking University and the Iga people are afraid of the future, but they have forgotten what a miserable situation they were in when they had nothing.

If Dao Shengmeng talks to them about gratitude and the past, will these people be touched?

Maybe, maybe not.

Dao Shengmeng had no money to gamble, so she had to take these Ji warriors to kill Yuezhong.

Then, let's convince them with great righteousness! As Sotechi Asakura said, great righteousness is great benefit!

Seeing the Ji warriors asking each other and knowing clearly that this was Yujian, with awe on their faces, Shima Shengmeng knew that the time had come.

she shouted.

"The sword is the property of your lord, and giving orders is as if you are here in person.

General Ashikaga ordered me to bring my sword into Kanto and accompany Lord Kenshin to conquer Buchen, do you understand what this means?"

The Ji warriors looked around and saw each other's doubts.

Shima Sheng shouted loudly.

"Kneel down!"

Everyone hesitated.

At this time, Kamaojigo had already figured out what Shima Shengmeng was going to do, and he made a decisive decision and knelt down.

Someone started, and other Ji warriors followed suit and knelt down, all with their trunks in their hands. They all knelt down on one knee.

Daosheng Meng's eyes widened, he pulled out the sword with his right hand, and held the blade with his left hand, blood immediately seeped out from between his fingers.

The Ji warriors looked at her and saw her covering her forehead with her left hand, letting the scarlet liquid flow down along her eye sockets, the bridge of her nose, and her cheeks.

“Last year, our island Shengmeng had nothing.

When I become an official, my lord is afraid of me, my family property is destroyed by the army, and I am saved by my lord between life and death. I am so grateful that I shed tears of gratitude."

Her eyes were deep, as if she saw herself at that moment, despair blocking her family.

The cavalry was galloping behind her, and it was he, the boy she deeply loved, who brought hope and gave her new dignity.

His pupils were shining in the sun, and tears could no longer be restrained and overflowed.

"The Lord once said, Ji will not let me down, and I will not let Ji down!

You treat me like a soldier of the country, and I will repay you with my body and bones! Dao Shengmeng swears a blood alliance! I am willing to be my master, an eagle and a dog, and I will repay you with death!

Three hundred and fifty years ago, the Kanto samurai family followed Minamoto Yoritomo out of seclusion!

Two hundred years ago, the Western samurai family followed Ashikaga Takauji to Luo!

Today, I am waiting with you! Returning to Kanto with the sword in hand, I will follow the direct descendants of the Genji family in Hanoi and change the sun and the moon again!

The imperial family has followed the Hanoi Genji family and gained wealth for hundreds of years! I am also willing to shed my last drop of blood for the pillars of the Wu family!

Blessed by my ancestors! May I die fighting in Guandong and gain fame for all generations, and may my descendants exchange blessings and blessings with my life for endless rewards!

So... what about you! Are you willing to come with me to pick up His Highness?"

"I'm willing!"

"Are you willing to go to Guandong and establish unparalleled achievements?"

"I'm willing!"

"Are you willing to follow the direct descendants of the Genji family in Hanoi, the elders of the Genji family, and the pillars of the Wu family to create a foundation for eternity?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!"

The voices of all the people were hoarse, some were fighting for their heads, some were in tears, and the crowd was furious.

Shima Sheng meng coldly cleaned up the injury on his palm and bandaged it to stop the bleeding. He carefully wiped the blood stains on the sword to prevent it from staining and rotting the sword.

By the time the silk was wrapped and the sword was tied, the atmosphere at the scene had reached its peak.

She got on her horse and ordered.

"All of us, let's go! Follow our Highness!"

"Destiny is in Spo! Destiny is in Spo!"

"Kaga ahead, the target is Yuezhong, who dares to stop our army?"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

A group of Ji warriors stood up from the ground, mounted their horses and lined up. Their morale was like a rainbow and they rushed out of the Asakura station.

Asakura Keiki looked on in a daze, and saw Shima Shengmeng bowing slightly to her, riding forward with no intention of looking back.

After a while, Asakura Kageki came back to his senses and took a deep breath.

When she returned to the shogunate of the Central Army and told Asakura Sotechi that she knew about it, she also remained silent and spoke after a long time.

"The Qianxin Lord is extraordinary, and all his subordinates are heroes and heroines.

This woman is so terrifying, she will become a great person in the future. If you have a chance to meet her again, you should make good friends with her."

Asakura Kageki cheered and asked again.

"Then how long do you think her words can incite these Ji warriors?"

Asakura Sodi laughed.

"Incitement? Incitement is not terrible. The most terrible thing is telling the truth and doing what you say.

If Lord Kenshin is really allowed to lead this group of wolf-like warriors and successfully open up a new territory in Kanto, I'm afraid the world..."

Asakura Sondi closed his eyes and remained silent. Asakura Kageki was shocked, but due to taboos, he did not dare to ask any more questions.

———

Yuezhong, Songcang City.

This city is the foundation of the Shimei family. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers. It has been repaired over the years and has become larger and larger.

Yoshihiro and his party walked through the castle town at the bottom of the mountain, went up the slope, and entered a wooden gate surrounded by horses.

The main castle is surrounded by earthen ramparts and walls in front, with the Ninomaru on the lower side facing the water and the Honmaru on the higher side facing the mountain. There are two castle towers in the Honmaru.

Between the two pills are several winding narrow roads with barrels, and there are shooting holes on the walls on both sides.

Yiyin glanced at it and knew that this city was difficult to attack.

Just attacking from the top of the slope is enough to consume the physical strength of the charge, not to mention the narrow twists and turns of the barrier. Without killing several reserve teams, there is no way to enter the city and fight in close combat.

No wonder the Shiina family has been able to stand for decades. The weak logistics of the samurai family cannot bear the casualties of attacking this city. Unless there is an internal problem, the only choice is to besiege.

But there are three cities of Yujin watching from behind. If you want to besiege this place, you have to capture the three cities that are horns with each other, which is even more troublesome.

The three cities are all located between Katagawa River and Kadokawa River. Even if an invader takes one or two cities, they will be limited by logistical inconveniences.

Once the army is withdrawn and only a few guards are left, it will be immediately attacked and recaptured by the Shiina family's army.

The only way to conquer three cities in one go and then besiege Matsukura City was to impose too high logistical requirements.

No wonder Jinbo Choji, the master of the ZTE who revived the family business, couldn't wipe out the Shiina family in one fell swoop even with all his strength.

Being dragged to exhaustion, Terutora Uesugi picked peaches and drove them all the way back to the west bank of the Shiroiwa River, committing a crime other than war.

As Yoshigan followed, he listened to Terutora Uesugi's explanation of last year's war, nodding and thinking from time to time.

At this time, Kamiizumi Nobutsuna suddenly raised his head and looked around, with a solemn look on his face. He rode forward and stood side by side with the two family governors.

"Sword Master Shangquan, what's the matter?"

Both of them looked at her politely. The friendship between Kamiizumi Nobutsuna and fighting side by side was respected by the two house governors, and a little arrogance could be tolerated.

Kamizumi Nobutsuna said in a low voice.

"Murderous."
