The flying snow stopped, the sky and the earth were vast, snow piled up on the long streets of Edo Castle, and the strong wind roared on the empty street corners like a trumpet.
The white snow illuminated the night sky white, and hundreds of black shadows floated down in the sky. A small snake shuttled through the snow, and slender ravines appeared wherever it passed.
In the harsh winter, snakes have long hibernated, but the little snake that appeared in Edo Castle at this time was a strange species. It followed the black shadow and quickly headed towards the military camp in the city.
at this time.
In the front hall of the General's Mansion.
The Emperor of Chu held a dinner to celebrate the achievements of the generals. After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the Emperor of Chu and Zhuge Liang left, leaving the generals behind to enhance their friendship.
When he walked out of the hall, the icy cold wind hit him face to face. Emperor Chu tightened his clothes, his drunken state disappeared instantly, and he glanced sideways at Zhuge Liang.
"Kong Ming, let's discuss how to plan the next war together?"
"Wei Chen has this intention. The Fuso Empire has three islands, Kyushu Island, Beihai Island, and Honshu Island. If the imperial capital of Beihai Island is captured, the Fuso Empire will be doomed. But if Emperor Fuso leads his troops to escape to Honshu Island, I'm afraid it won't be until the end of the year.
Fusang cannot be unified."
Zhuge Liang's calm voice sounded, and Emperor Chu nodded lightly. He also had such worries. He couldn't help but worry about the surrounding countries that were eyeing him, and he also worried that the Fusang Empire was like a centipede insect that would die without stiffness.
During the conversation.
The two came to the outside of the study, pushed the door open and entered. Emperor Chu motioned for Zhuge Liang to take a seat. The two began to divide their forces, preparing to set out in several groups at the same time after the heavy snow dissipated to unify the Fusang Empire in one fell swoop.
Under the dim light, Emperor Chu and Zhuge Liang were holding candles and talking at night. In the front hall, the generals were drinking and chatting happily. However, at this time, the Chu army camp in the city was attacked by the Yamata no Orochi and the snake ghost.
The stove in the military camp collapsed, the tents flew everywhere, and the soldiers fled in panic. At this time, the Yamata-no-Orochi was swinging its eight heads wildly, killing and wounding countless Chu soldiers wherever it passed.
According to legend, the eight heads and eight tails of the Yamata no Orochi possess the power of the devil, the origin of dark power, and the representative of evil. The eight heads represent "souls, ghosts, evil demons, slaying souls and death". The aura released by itself contains poisonous poison, and you will die if you touch it.
"Hiss!"
"Hiss!"
"Hiss!"
The Yamata-no-Orochi, several feet long, soared into the air, vomiting words, and venom dripped down. The ground was corroded by the violent poison, and smoke curled up.
One hundred and eight snake ghosts were like ghosts, frantically harvesting the heads of Chu soldiers. Their silhouettes were flitting around, and their sharp samurai swords were killing people without causing any blood.
There are three leaders of Snake Ghost, namely Shuten Doji, Nine-tailed Fox Jade, and Daitengu. Their names come from the three evil monsters in Fuso legend.
These three men were murderers, whether they were ghosts or demons. Their cultivation had reached the realm of martial masters. It was easy to kill ordinary Chu soldiers.
Led by three people, Snake Ghost quickly shuttled through the military camp, and with the assistance of the Yamata no Orochi, the Chu army's officers and soldiers were thrown into disarray. A strong fear enveloped them. They didn't know when Hang would lose his life and become a sword.
The ghost below may be swallowed by the Yamata-no-Orochi snake.
...........
"Da da da~"
"Da da da~"
On the empty long street, the rumble of horse hooves echoed under the night sky. The Chu soldiers galloping on their horses tightened the reins in their hands and looked back from time to time.
The Yamata no Orochi swung its swaying body and wreaked havoc under the sky. The soldier's face was as pale as paper. He withdrew his eyes, took a breath of cold air, and looked ahead as he galloped towards the general's palace.
A stick of incense passed, and as I looked at the general's palace getting closer and closer, I saw that the soldiers' helmets had disappeared without a trace, and they were in a miserable state.
A few moments.
The soldiers arrived outside the general's mansion, jumped off their horses, and rushed into the mansion rolling and crawling. Suddenly seeing the soldiers arriving in such a hurry, the soldiers guarding the general's mansion asked.
"What happened?"
"The military camp was attacked, and many soldiers were killed and injured. Please notify the generals and the emperor immediately. Otherwise, things will change later, and the consequences will be disastrous."
The soldiers were panting like cattle and their trembling voices rang out. When they learned that the military camp was attacked, the guarding soldiers did not dare to be careless and ran towards the house with the soldiers who came.
"Creak!"
There was a sound of pushing the door open, and the soldiers entered the hall. The generals looked at the sound, and their eyes stayed on the soldiers who came. Although they were not drunk, they were more or less drunk.
"How dignified are you, why are you in such a hurry, thank you that the emperor is not here, if you contradict the emperor, you will not be able to chop off even if you have a hundred heads!"
Huo Qubing, who was young and full of energy and had strong energy and blood, scolded him loudly.
"General, the military camp was attacked and our army suffered numerous casualties. I hope you generals can come up with an idea."
"Haha, a joke?"
"Edo Castle is impregnable, and Fuso's enemy soldiers are frightened. Let alone attacking the military camp, it is impossible to enter the city."
Huo Qubing's determined voice sounded, he raised his head and drank down the drink in front of him, completely disapproving of it.
"Everything from the general's subordinates is true. A big snake dozens of feet long and a hundred men in black whose faces can't be seen clearly are so powerful that no other soldiers can compete with them."
The soldiers' urgent voices sounded, and their eyes were like torches, staring at the generals. Bai Qi was the first to react and glanced sideways at the generals.
"You guys hurry back to the military camp first, and I'll go and notify the emperor and Zhuge's military advisor right away!"
Bai Qi flicked his sleeves and hurriedly left the front hall. Yue Fei, Ran Min, Zhao Yun, and Lu Bu got up and walked out.
All the figures of the generals at the celebration banquet disappeared. They galloped on horseback. Under the blowing of the cold wind, their drunkenness disappeared and they looked towards the direction of the military camp.
A few moments.
"What was that then?"
Yue Fei, who was riding at the forefront, was the first to spot the Yamata no Orochi. Looking at the bodies of the great snakes rising and falling, the generals looked solemn and took a breath of cold air.
"What kind of trick does the Fuso Empire want to play? A big snake wants to destroy our military camp. Seeing this, I will step forward to kill it, stew it and treat it to all the generals."
Lu Bu took off the dragon's tongue bow on horseback, held it tightly in his hand and rushed towards the military camp. Yue Fei, Huang Zhong, Li Guang, and Hua Rong took off their huge bows one after another, because they knew that they could not get close to each other in close combat, so they could only
Use the giant bow to kill it.
Yue Fei held the Divine Arm Bow, Huang Zhong Wanshi Bow, Li Guangling Treasure Bow, and Hua Rong Youzi Bow. Five divine bows appeared in one moment.
a little.
The long street where everyone came to set up camp was in a mess and terrible to behold. Houses collapsed, broken walls were in ruins, and corpses piled up on the ground. The soldiers in the military camp were still frantically resisting the attack of the Yamata-no-Orochi.
"Kill this damn big snake and avenge all the soldiers!"
Lu Bu clapped his horse forward, picked up his bow and arrow, and the arrow, as fast as a meteor, struck at the back of the Yamata no Orochi.
"boom!"
The arrow pierced the back of the Yamata no Orochi, and she hissed, turning to look at Lu Bu. The longest head among the eight heads flew down from the sky, trying to swallow Lu Bu up, both human and horse.
See the situation.
Lu Bu stood up with a loud voice, drew out Fang Tian's painted halberd, raised his hand and stabbed the head of the Yamata no Orochi that was devouring it.
"What kind of monster is this? It has eight heads. It's really terrifying!"
"The people of the Fuso Empire are simply perverted and crazy. A good snake must cultivate such a monster."
"Eight heads is enough. I don't believe it. General Lu, don't kill it. Give me a chance."
Luo Shixin, holding an iron spear in hand, quickly rushed into the military camp, jumped up, pierced the body of Yamata no Orochi with his spear. (To be continued)
