Chapter 970 Qing Deng’s big boy is vomiting bento! [4500]
To be fair, Saigo Yoshinosuke is worthy of being the leader of the three masters of Satsuma and deserves it.
The battle of Changzhou, the fall of the Great Nei, the emergency of Edo, the second major return of China, the second Sekigahara war, the Edo Cangcheng City, the failure of the Long March... Looking at it, this series of changes is like a
Large chain of plans.
As soon as Aoden led the Xinxuan team to rescue Edo, Saigo Yoshinosuke made layers of designs, making the "Changzhou Conquest" fail.
At first glance, Sa, Chan and Fa seem to have formed an alliance and united to destroy the Shogunate's plan to conquer the scourge.
But after careful consideration, Qingdeng dispelled this judgment.
Based on the current known information and his intuition, Qingdeng does not think that Satsuma is the same as the father and Fa is involved.
Although I couldn't tell the reason, Aoden was just sure--at the beginning, Saigo Yoshinosuke absolutely did not expect that Noo and Kanto would be attacked, and he never thought of usurping the real power of the siege army.
Whether it is a scattered and peaceful environment or a peace with Changzhou, it is all his temporary intention! There is no prior plan!
If the Fauci coalition did not attack the rear, Qingdeng would have stayed in the Disaster Army.
In this way, the disintegration of the Discipline Army would not have happened.
Not to mention anything else, Qing Deng’s own prestige alone is enough to suppress the sluts under his command.
Under such circumstances, Saigo Yoshinosuke had no room to implement the "lower defeat" and he would definitely not dare to cause trouble under the nose of Aoden.
In other words... the cause of all comes from "Qingdeng's sudden departure" and the power vacuum caused by it.
It must be the arrival of this opportunity that inspired his ambition! Then he came up with the idea of "back-slaying the shogunate, controlling the siege of the siege, and protecting the siege"!
The so-called "opportunities" have always been fleeting.
Whether it is discovering opportunities or seizing them, it is not easy.
If it were ordinary people, facing such major choices that would affect their lives or even directly affect the direction of history, they would most likely be hesitant and unable to make a decision.
It took only more than a month to leave the Zhengchang front line to Matsuhira Toruki.
Saigo Yoshinosuke was able to make a judgment in such a short time and take action immediately... Such courage is really second to none.
Poor Matsuhira Yokoba was played with by him.
Although Qingdeng is unknown, why Yoshinosuke Saigo wants to protect Changzhou, it is not difficult to guess.
It's nothing more than a loss of lips and a cold teeth, and he doesn't want to let the shogunate dominate the country and wants to maintain the situation of "heroes arise together".
If the marquis succeeds, the authority of the shogunate will be greatly increased, which will not benefit Satsuma.
Only by staying behind Changzhou can we disperse the power of the shogunate to the greatest extent and share the pressure of Satsuma.
Anyway, in terms of the result, Saigo Yoshinosuke and the Satsuma behind him are undoubtedly one of the biggest winners of this battle!
It not only saved Changzhou, but also preserved Satsuma's power, but also sold the face of the vassals. After all, it was thanks to Saigo Yoshinosuke's strong mediation that the war ended early and the army of the vassals returned as soon as possible.
Home.
A kill of three birds with one stone... It's a wonderful plan.
Saigo Yoshinosuke Ma is like a poisonous snake... If he doesn't move, he will run to the deadly place when he moves!
However, in this way, Satsuma has no way to go.
He made peace with Changzhou without authorization, which made the "Changzhou Conquest" fail... This move was equivalent to expelling himself from the Zuomu camp!
As early as a year and a half ago, Satsuma and Changzhou formed a bloody feud.
The night when the Changzhou forces were expelled from Kyoto, the Satsuma army made a lot of efforts.
Since the "August 18th Coup", the words that Changzhou patriots most often wrote on their soles are, in addition to "Juqingdeng", "Qin Demon", "Teiji" and "Sa thief".
A despicable title.
The Satsuma Army also made great efforts in the subsequent "Kyoto Xia Formation", with a lot of blood from Changzhou people on its hands, which aggravated the hatred between the two sides.
The people of Changzhou have a very small hatred for Satsuma, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they "want to eat his meat raw."
At present, Satsuma and Zunrong camp have become enemies first, and offend the Satsuma camp later... From a diplomatic perspective, Satsuma is already in an embarrassing situation of "international orphans".
What exactly did Saigo Yoshinosuke think? How did he plan to act next?
It is absolutely impossible to fight against the two major camps alone with the power of a vassal. "Zunlang" and "Samaku" are the only two political lines in Japan at present, and Satsumaku will eventually join a certain camp.
Will Saigo Yoshinosuke repair his relationship with the shogunate afterwards?
Or... he wants to eliminate the hatred between Sa and Chang, and promote the Sa Chang alliance?
The deeper I think about it, the more I feel heavy the mood.
It was finally difficult to repel the invasion of the Fauci coalition. Before long, new troubles followed...
In terms of difficulty, Satsuma is not inferior to Changzhou, and the law punishes the party.
In a sense, Samo is more threatening!
Although the Fazhu Party is elusive and has a large number of strange people, they are just a secret association after all, and the upper limit is very low.
It might be okay to let them play some conspiracy and make some small moves behind enemy lines.
But if they want to fight head-on, they will definitely end up dying when they see the light! You can be beaten by the new selection team in one encounter!
Samo is different. Samo is a serious country! And it is a big country with more than 600,000 stones of land, advanced industries, and even able to build warships independently!
If it comes to head-on, Satsuma is not worthy of Qinjin.
Since a long time ago, Qingdeng has no good impression of Satsuma.
One reason is that Tianzhangyuan suffered grievances in Satsuma.
As for the second, he did not like Satsuma's "fence-riding".
It is true that "hurning a fence" is a normal behavior in political activities, but Qingdeng just doesn't like this fence-swinging and swaying back and forth.
Saigo Yoshinosuke's shameless betrayal in the "Changzhou Conquest" made him very disgusted, further aggravating his disgust for Satsuma.
To be honest, he wished he could immediately order the Western Expedition to mobilize all the manpower and material resources of Qin Jinfan to eliminate Changzhou and Satsuma together, and to expel his anger.
Of course, this is just a delusion that has been in the back of the mind for a moment.
As soon as this thought came out of his mind, he consciously gave up this idea.
Satsuma is located at the southwestern end of Kyushu Island, far from Honshu Island.
If Qingdeng wants to send troops to attack Satsuma, he must organize a large fleet to cross the Xiaguan Strait.
[Note: Xiaguan Strait: The waters at the western end of Benzhou Island and the northern end of Kyushu Island have been a must-fight place for military strategists since ancient times.]
Cross-sea combat... I think it is clear that the logistics difficulty has increased sharply.
Furthermore, the Xiaguan Strait is controlled by the Changzhou Phantom.
If Qingdeng wants to attack Satsuma, he must first wipe out Changzhou!
Just by the current national strength of Qinjin's vassal, it is simply not enough to maintain such a large-scale expedition.
Besides, they just experienced a big battle.
Although the "Second Seihara Joint Battle" ended with a "big victory", they also paid a very heavy price.
At this stage, the scholars and soldiers in Qinjin urgently need to rest and recuperate, and should not start a war again.
At this moment, Qingdeng frowned slightly, looked at the void ahead, and secretly thought about the "strategy of the Sa" afterwards.
After a while, he let out a long breath, his face full of fatigue:
——Forget it...No rush to think about it later...
After thinking about this, he slowly stood up, moved to the window not far away, and stared at Edo Castle in the distance.
Changzhou, which has not yet disappeared... the ambitious Satsuma... the cunning Fazing Party... These powerful enemies are indeed difficult to deal with.
But compared to these enemies that will be defeated by him sooner or later, what he cares most about now is Tokugawa Ishima's physical condition...
After Chiba Eijiro came to life, Aoden's two confidants - Tobayashi and Elorti - also survived the dangerous period one after another.
Both of them suffered serious injuries, especially Elorti, who was not the kind of strong-body, but also suffered the most difficult and most likely death-dead penetration injury.
The person responsible for treating Elordi is still Qingdeng's old friend - Beifangren, who is superb in medical skills.
According to him, Elorti was very lucky that the boy Shuitun's knife did not stab his internal organs.
Unfortunately, she has a lot of bleeding and has severe bleeding.
When the treatment began, the amount of blood in her body was only at a barely sustained life.
Beifangren told Qingdeng directly: The key to her survival is no longer my medical skills, but God's will and her willpower.
Qingdeng did not doubt the willpower of his apprentice, so the only variable was the illusory "will of heaven".
Fortunately... God's will stand on Elorti's side!
Beifangren's treatment was a great success and he snatched Elordi back from the gates of hell.
The same is true for Tu Fang Sui San.
Thanks to Beifangren's full rescue efforts, Tufang Sui San came back to life and his vital signs had stabilized.
Chiba Eijiro, Tobayasu and Elorti escaped from danger one after another, which made Aoden's originally depressed heart revived and stretched.
With these three precedents in it, he couldn't help but think optimistically: Tokugawa Ishiki will be fine too! Yes, he will be fine!
What if he does... the greater his expectations, the greater his disappointment...
In order to save the general, the shogunate made the best efforts.
From the doctor who rejuvenated his heart with a beautiful hand to the precious medicinal herbs, they all gathered in Edo Castle.
Thanks to the lofty public expectations accumulated by Tokugawa Ishimatsu in his daily life, many famous doctors spontaneously came forward to sign up - including Hitoshi Bei.
After learning that Tokugawa Ishishi's treatment team had Hitomi Bei, Aoden felt relieved.
The superb medical skills that Bei Fangren has shown in recent days have completely conquered Qingdeng.
In Aoden's mind, Hitoshi Bei is the well-deserved "No. 1 Doctor of Edo".
If even Hitoshi Bei was helpless against Tokugawa Ishima's injury... then he would be completely finished.
Although Qingdeng had high expectations for Beifangren, no matter how powerful his medical skills were, he was still a mortal.
Since it is a mortal, it is a limit that humans cannot reach.
The boy Shuitun's knife was extremely fierce, from his left shoulder to his right abdomen, cutting both flesh and bones... Just looking at the text description, you can tell how serious the injuries Tokugawa Ishishi were!
After checking Tokugawa Ishimatsu's injury, Henry Bei looked serious.
He neither said "I can cure it" nor said "It depends on God's will", but said silently, "I will do my best."
Such an attitude has already explained everything...
To this day, the "Famous Doctors Group" has been treating Tokugawa Ishimatsu for several days, and there is still no definite ending...
...
...
Two days later—
Edo Castle, somewhere—
Qingdeng, dressed in a simple dress, walked on the corridor in a meteorically strode.
After a while, he stopped in front of the door of a certain room.
The maid who was kneeling beside her immediately turned sideways and raised her hand to open the door.
Qingdeng stepped into the room lightly, and the maids behind him consciously closed the door.
As soon as he entered, he saw the familiar figure.
"Sheng Qing..."
Tianzhangyuan turned his head and stared at Qingdeng with a numb expression.
The war was over, and her outfit changed back to her past appearance.
Wearing a lilac hood, her long shoulder-length hair tied into a light short ponytail.
But... compared to before, her expression has changed dramatically.
In the past, no matter where she was, she would always show a charming but serious smile.
But now... her face looked unhealthy and pale, her eyes were so red and swollen, and her body was emitting a haggard aura.
This sad look is really a true portrayal of the word "I still feel pity for you".
It is conceivable how great mental pressure Tianzhangyuan was under during the period when his adopted son was struggling on the brink of death...
Right next to her, there was a girl sitting - Tokugawa Ieshiro's wife and Miya.
In terms of the degree of haggardness, compared to the palace, it is even better than that of Tianzhangyuan.
As soon as the "Edo Cage Battle" ended, Kawamiya, who was taking refuge outside, immediately returned to Edo.
At that time, after learning that Tokugawa Ishimaki had been seriously injured, she did not breathe and fainted on the spot. It took a long time to wake up.
Recently, she recites scriptures in front of the Buddha statue every day to pray for Tokugawa Ishimatsu.
In order to show her sincerity to the gods and Buddhas, she started a hunger strike the day before yesterday.
Her body was already delicate, and after such a struggle, she became dying.
Tokugawa Ishiki had not passed away yet, so she was about to die first.
As far as Qingdeng knows, Tianzhangyuan forced her to drink some porridge last night, which made her "live".
Qing Deng gave a gentle polite greeting to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and then sat consciously beside them.
Tianzhangyuan carefully looked at the linen on his body and asked softly:
"Sheng Qing, is your injury okay?"
"It doesn't matter, you can get better after recuperating for a while."
After saying that, he subconsciously turned his head and looked at the door, as if waiting for something.
Suddenly, he suddenly asked Tianzhangyuan:
"Your Highness, Jia Mao... General He..."
Before Qing Deng could finish his words, Tianzhangyuan shook his head with a heavy expression.
Seeing this, Qingdeng stopped talking and silently shut his mouth.
The reason why the three of them gathered here today is because Hitoshi Bei said to them last night: Today will be a critical period for Tokugawa Ishiki! If he can survive today, then
There is still rescue!
Beifangren carefully did not say the result of "I haven't survived today."
In fact, it doesn't matter whether he talks or not. Even without his explicit explanation, Qingdeng and others can guess why.
In order to receive the treatment results from Tokugawa Ishimaki as soon as possible, the three of them agreed to wait in Edo Castle together.
Time passes by minute by minute...
The heavy atmosphere and annoying silence flowed between the three.
Affected by anxiety, tension and other moods, for the three of them, every second at the moment is as long as a year.
Finally, after waiting for a while, a maid's notification came from outside the door:
"Your Highness, Mr. Beifangren is asking for advice!"
The three of them instantly cheered up.
Tianzhangyuan replied in a hurry:
"Let him in!"
"yes!"
The next breath, the door opens.
Bei Fangren, who was covered in blood, raised his foot and came to Qingdeng and others in three steps in two steps.
Before they could ask questions, he said bluntly:
"The General is alive."
For a moment, an indescribable joy bloomed in the hearts of the three of them.
However... Before they could get excited, Bei Fangren changed the subject:
"only……"
He paused, sighed, and then finished speaking in one breath:
"Whether he can wake up is an unknown."
