Chapter 650 The Eastern Front is in emergency! Deploy the general reserve team?41
Shinsengumi position, Western Front (the defense area responsible for the 5th and 10th divisions)——
"Damn it! These guys are all wearing chainmail! It's impossible to cut through them!"
"In addition to chain mail, they also have hand armor and foot armor!"
"You can't even hurt the opponent! How, how are you going to fight like this?!"
"Don't chop their torsos and limbs! Chop their heads and necks!"
"You put it lightly! Do you think that all of us are great swordsmen with superb swordsmanship?"
"I, I, I won't fight! This is simply sending me to death!"
"Hey! Come back! Don't run away! Come back here!!"
…
With a casual movement, Sanosuke Harada put the spear presented to him by Aoto - Narakukan - on his shoulder, and glanced ahead with an expressionless expression.
In this chaotic battlefield, he was particularly eye-catching as he was "doing nothing".
Niimi Nishiki, the captain of the fifth division, stood beside him. The light green haori on his body was stained with blood, as was the katana in his hand. It is not difficult to imagine that he had experienced many bloody battles.
As one of the rare "Non-Subeikan faction" among the Shinsengumi cadres, compared to the fiery-tempered and sharp-edged Serizawa Kamo, and the warm-hearted and friendly Hachiro Kiyokawa, who is quite popular, Shinmiki Nishiki is not the most popular one.
He doesn't show off, doesn't like to talk on weekdays, and has no sense of existence.
However, since this person can be promoted to the leader of the team by Qing Teng, then there is something special about him.
Although he does not have specific permission certificates such as "catalog" and "no permission required" in hand, there is no doubt that he is a master of Shinto Muken-ryu!
During the initial "entry assessment", Qingdeng couldn't help but admire his skills.
At this moment, while wiping the sweat and stains from his face, he cast a confused look at Harada Sanosuke who was not far away.
"Harada-kun, what are you doing? Are you in a daze?"
"..."
Harada Sanosuke ignored the other party's question and continued to roll his eyes and glance around.
Suddenly, his eyes froze.
His eyes were firmly fixed on the young man who was shouting "no escape" over and over again, struggling to maintain order. There was a very conspicuous birthmark on this man's face, and he was a "birthmark face"
.
The next breath - thump thump thump thump thump - Harada Sanosuke stepped hard on his back foot and rushed out like a sharp arrow! He ran straight towards the face with the birthmark!
In the blink of an eye, his figure was already approaching the opponent!
After hearing the series of strange noises coming towards him, the birthmark face immediately followed the sound, and immediately his face changed color, and he subconsciously picked up the short gun in his hand.
In his desperation, he ignored the prohibition that "all Shinsengumi soldiers are fully armed and cannot attack their torsos."
He held the gun, lowered his waist, exerted force, and stabbed Harada Sanosuke's chest!
Playing with a gun in front of Harada Sanosuke... Such behavior cannot be said to be playing with a big sword in front of Guan Gong, but it can also be said to be playing with a big ax in front of Lu Ban.
Harada Sanosuke waved Narakukan lightly.
Hearing a "click" sound, he effortlessly deflected the birthmark-faced pistol.
There is a counterattack hidden in the parrying action.
Soon enough, he skillfully turned the muzzle of the gun and thrust it forward - just like using a soaked dagger to pierce cooked rice paper, and without using much force, he pierced through.
【Note: Compared with raw rice paper, cooked rice paper is very thin and soft.】
The face with the birthmark on his chest didn't even have time to scream, his eyes widened, he vomited blood, and he went straight to the west.
Harada Sanosuke flicked his wrist and retracted his spear.
Looking at the black gun body in his hand, he couldn't help shaking the gun and grinning:
"Hehe~ It is indeed a treasured gun that Mr. Orange bought for a lot of money. It is very useful when used!"
The commander responsible for maintaining order died... This was like a bolt from the blue for the bandits who lacked organization.
Suddenly, the surrounding bandits fell into an increasingly terrifying chaos.
To give a vivid metaphor... they are like a camel that is about to be crushed, waiting for the last straw to fall.
At this time, Harada Sanosuke gave this "camel" the last straw at the right time.
"Brothers! Follow me! Defeat them completely! Beat them until they don't even dare to look back!"
Harada Sanosuke brandished his spear, plunged into the enemy group as dense as grass, and then... started mowing wildly!
He was like holding a lamp grass, waving the black gun in his palm with ease.
The black gun came out for the first time and penetrated the bodies of the three thieves in one breath.
When he took the black gun back, he knocked down two people.
Pushing out, withdrawing, pushing out again, withdrawing again... the cycle repeats.
Although it is a monotonous attack method, it has a frightening efficiency in killing enemies!
Occasionally, some people mustered up the courage to stop escaping and turn around to challenge Harada Sanosuke, but no one could contain his fierce offensive!
Shinami Nishiki was the first to respond to Harada Sanosuke's "Follow me" instruction.
He rushed forward, with wind under his feet and lightning in his hands. In conjunction with Harada Sanosuke, he swung his bloody blade and tore apart one bandit after another!
The two men's "leading demonstration" soon became fruitful.
The soldiers of the 5th and 10th squads rose up one after another and joined in the pursuit of the bandits. One was worth ten, and ten was worth a hundred!
In addition to the superior level of food, another of Qingdeng's military achievements - purchasing armor for every soldier - shines brightly now!
In today's era, bulky armor has become outdated.
The lightweight chain armor is enough to satisfy Qingdeng's positioning of the Bato team as "specializing in hand-to-hand combat."
Therefore, when the newly elected chamber of commerce made its first pot of gold, Qingdeng immediately used the money to purchase equipment.
In this way, everyone in the Shinsengumi has a complete set of chain mail, hand armor, and foot armor, and they are all brand new and of high quality.
Having armor on the body means that it is not easy to die, which is equivalent to having an extra life.
Not only that, because it is well protected, it can greatly increase the morale and fighting spirit of the soldiers, making them more daring to attack.
Therefore, it is just a normal operation for a man wearing a helmet and carrying armor to beat up ten men wearing only civilian clothes.
Relying on the individual combat power that is far superior to the opponent's, and the high morale that is like divine help, the battle situation on the Western Front is excellent.
So far in the battle, the rebel army has suffered heavy casualties. On the other hand, Harada Sanosuke and others... only two people were slightly injured!
Soon, the light green waves overwhelmed the dark tide of chaos.
The rebel army's first wave of attacks on the western front seemed to be showing signs of collapse.
As far as the eye can see, the thieves who were beaten to a pulp used their actual actions to vividly explain what "a defeat is like water" means.
They ran down the mountain desperately... only wishing that their parents had given them a pair of wings or a pair of legs and feet.
Many people accidentally fell into a deep ditch and hit a fence while escaping, leaving them in such a state of "embarrassment".
After the pursuit reached a certain distance, Harada Sanosuke waved his left hand and signaled to the subordinates behind him that "there is no need to pursue anymore."
The soldiers of the 5th and 10th divisions stood and looked at the defeated enemy group in the distance.
The western battlefield, which was originally extremely noisy, gradually became quiet.
Shinjian Jin snorted coldly, shaking the knife and shaking off the remaining blood on the blade with a look of disdain.
"Hmph! Vulnerable!"
Harada Sanosuke raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.
"Although we were just lucky and were sent to defend the easiest place, the fact that we were able to achieve such a dazzling and brilliant record is a credit to all of you who bravely took the lead and killed the enemy with all your strength!"
As he spoke, he turned around and faced the subordinates behind him.
"This war is far from over! We just repelled the first wave of the bandits' attack!"
"Having said that, we should celebrate, we still have to celebrate!"
At this point, he raised his spear high and launched the classic "victory coax".
"Eh! Eh!"
The next moment, the soldiers of the fifth and tenth squads raised their fists and swords above their heads and shouted in unison:
"Ohhhhhhhhh!!"
Of the three east, west and south sides of the Shinsengumi position, the west side has the steepest terrain.
In the same period of time, the rebel army can deliver hundreds of people to the southern front, but to the western front, they may only be able to deliver about fifty people.
For this reason, the defensive pressure on the Western Front is minimal.
And this is also an important reason why Harada Sanosuke and others were able to defeat the bandit army in front of them so quickly.
At this time, Niimi Nishiki suddenly squinted his eyes and glanced at Harada Sanosuke secretly with complicated eyes.
Under Qingdeng's arrangement, each front has a frontline commander.
The commander responsible for commanding the Western Front was Sanosuke Harada.
To be fair, Xinjianjin was very unhappy with Qingdeng's arrangement.
Although he is generally not familiar with the "Taiweikan School", after so many days of getting along with each other, Niimi Nishiki has already understood: Harada Sanosuke is basically... at best, he is frank and natural, at worst, he is a brain.
A weak person!
Is it really okay to let such a person serve as the commander...this kind of nonsensical personnel appointment?
Ever since, Shinami Nishiki subconsciously concluded: Qingnobo is simply a nepotist! Deliberately leaving important positions to his own people, excluding the "non-test Weikan faction"!
In addition, after the bandits officially launched their offensive, Harada Sanosuke's various performances made Niimi Nishiki firm up in his belief that "this person cannot take on a big responsibility."
When the war was about to begin, he still had time to eat wild fruits, and even invited him to eat together...
At this time, Nimi Nishiki's contempt for Harada Sanosuke had reached its peak.
However... as the war officially began, the impression the other party gave him gradually changed significantly.
When the bandits attacked, Sanosuke Harada first followed Ayoto's instructions and waited until the bandits were restrained by trenches and fences before allowing the archers to shoot freely.
Immediately afterwards, he picked up the spear without hesitation, took the lead, and launched a counterattack against the rebels, completely disregarding life and death.
When faced with a tough battle, he really dares to fight!
Not only do you dare to fight and charge, but you can also accurately find the key points of the rebel army every time.
Just like just now - he found the commander who gave orders and maintained order, and sent him to the west in time, disrupting the deployment of the rebel army and greatly aggravating the chaos of the rebel army.
As soon as he thought about this, Xinjian Jin couldn't help but think to himself:
——This guy...maybe not as stupid as he looks...
At this moment, Harada Sanosuke's sudden words brought him back to consciousness:
"Xinjian-kun, we should be relaxed for now."
As Harada Sanosuke spoke, he stretched his neck and looked around.
Shinjian Jin nodded slightly to show his agreement.
"Well, if nothing else happens, even if we stay here for seven days and seven nights, we will still be invulnerable."
"Right now...I'm only worried about Serizawa..."
After that, he turned his head and looked east, his facial lines tensed, and a worried look appeared on his face...
…
…
Shinsengumi position, Eastern Front (defense area of the 4th and 6th divisions)——
Wow!
Serizawa took off the gourd from his waist, opened the bottle, and poured the water on his head.
With the sound of "crash", wisps of translucent hot steam suddenly rose up.
Genzaburo Inoue, who was standing next to him, frowned slightly and said in a caring tone:
"Serizawa-kun, why don't you take a rest first?"
As if he had heard some funny anecdote, Serizawa sneered, and then answered half jokingly, half seriously:
"Rest? I want to too! Now I can't wait to get into a soft bed and hold a woman in my arms, but look at this scene!"
He raised the knife in his hand and pointed it directly in front of him.
"Can you still sleep after seeing such a scene?"
"..."
Genzaburo Inoue stopped talking.
Looking up...in front of them, on the huge eastern front, were thieves and bandits all over the mountains and plains!
In the true sense of the word, mountains and plains!
One after another, fierce figures crowded every path leading to the eastern front, attacking every empty space from all directions!
If the western front took advantage of the steep terrain, then the opposite was true for the eastern front.
The eastern part of the Shinsengumi camp has a gentle slope and is wide enough that anyone with long legs can climb it.
In other words, the amount of troops that the bandit army can send to the eastern front at one time is overwhelming!
In addition, the bandit army obviously uses this place as their main direction of attack!
The rebel soldiers gathered here are significantly younger and stronger, and many of them have obviously learned some martial arts.
There is no doubt that...the soldiers of the 4th and 6th divisions on the eastern front have endured tremendous pressure that other troops cannot match!
Without the trenches and fences to stop the enemy, and without the desperate fighting of Serizawa and Genzaburo Inoue, this place would have been lost long ago.
Fight without stopping...
A fight where you can’t even take a breath...
Under the crazy attack of the bandits, even those as strong as Serizawa Kamo and Inoue Genzaburo couldn't help but feel powerless.
At this moment, the light green feathers on their bodies were stained with blood, and the original color was almost invisible.
People who didn't know better might have thought they were wearing a bloody feathered fabric!
Genzaburo Inoue pursed his lips, and then suggested to Serizawa Kamo next to him:
"...Serizawa-kun, please ask for help from this formation."
"Teams one, two, and three are all in our formation, ready for action."
"As long as we can get assistance from these three divisions, we will be able to stabilize our position."

Why did Qingdeng deliberately short Dongmian? Can any readers guess it? (Baohan)
