Martial Arts: Start with 100,000 Xiliang Cavalry

Chapter 203 Showdown, appetite

East Bonakyo.

Daming House.

The contemporary daimyo Nobuo Hojo is pacing in the hall at the moment, with complicated expressions on his face, anticipation, worry, excitement... and so on.

He muttered to himself: "I don't know how things will turn out..."

He has received news that Su Yuan's Bei'an army has landed in Dongwo and defeated the defenders of Changping Road in Dongwa, and is now heading for Naijing.

When Nobu Hojo discussed this matter with Shen Qianle's former great priestess before, they were more looking forward to it.But now, when the Bei'an Army really came, he felt a little scared again.

Of course he hoped that the Shanggong Shogunate would be defeated by the Bei'an Army, but what about after the defeat?What if the Bei'an Army doesn't allow his Hojo family to take back power?
Although Hojo Shin is a puppet, he thinks a lot, especially after defeating the Shanggong family, he wants to take charge of power himself.

At that time, if the Bei'an Army does not agree, then he may have no choice but to sacrifice a lot of benefits.

For example, giving the Bei'an Army several good ports in return is also a helpless move.

certainly.This is based on the fact that the Bei'an Army can win. If they can't win, then of course everything will stop.

At that time, it is not just a simple failure. He believes that if Shanggong Shingen can win, the first thing he will do afterwards is to become a new daimyo.

Depose him Hojo Shin.

Hojo Shin just thought about it and felt chills all over his body, he couldn't accept this kind of thing.The Hojo family had been serving as daimyo hundreds of years ago, if he changed to the Shanggong family in his generation, he would be a sinner of the family.

"I heard that Shanggong Shingen is gathering soldiers and horses. I don't know what's going on...the Bei'an Army..."

Shin Hojo was thinking about it when suddenly his feet became unstable and his body shook.

He held onto the wall next to him, felt the tremors on the ground, and was amazed: "This is..."

……

As Shin Hojo said, Shingen Uemiya is gathering troops.

At the beginning, he didn't take the Bei'an Army seriously, thinking that Changping Road's [-]-strong army would definitely wipe out the first batch of Bei'an soldiers who landed.

As a result, the news came back that all the officers and soldiers of Changping Road were wiped out.

He didn't believe it at first, but after several confirmations, he found out that the news was true.

He was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses and mobilized all the warriors in the house.Let them gather officers and soldiers from nearby cities.

This is not a joke.

Uemiya Shingen had no idea that things would turn out like this.If the first batch of Bei'an troops landed, they would be so powerful.Then when the next one comes again, wouldn't Dongwo only have to raise his hands and surrender?
He made up his mind to gather all his forces and wipe out the Bei'an Army near Naijing.For this reason, he didn't even bother to take care of the daimyo's affairs.

Just when he was busy, the person he was looking for appeared on his own initiative.

"General."

After being notified by the servants, Shanggong Shingen came to the gate of the mansion.When he saw Sen who was waiting here, he was furious.

"Where did you go! Do you know that the Bei'an army has landed, and now is the critical moment!"

He also sent ashigaru to find these Koka ninjas before, but he couldn't find them at all.

Now Sen has come out on his own initiative.

What surprised Uemiya Shingen was that Mori didn't wear a mask this time.

The reason why I can recognize it is purely because of those narrow and long eyes.

As soon as Shanggong Shingen saw this person's eyes, he knew it was Mori.

Mori looked at Shingen Uemiya, smiled and said, "General, the time has come."

"Timing? What timing? What nonsense are you talking about...you...!!"

As Uemiya Shingen spoke, he suddenly felt a burst of fear.

He saw that in Sen's open mouth when he spoke, the tongue definitely didn't look like a normal human's!
"What are you?! Guards!!!"

Shangmiya Shingen let out a loud roar, and there was a rush of footsteps, and tens of hundreds of elite warriors rushed out from nearby.

Some of the samurai blocked him, while the other surrounded Sen, staring at him.

Mori's reaction to Uemiya Shingen was not surprising.

If everyone doesn't care about their snake symbol, then they don't need to pretend to be ninjas.

"The general still can't guess now?" Sen said lightly.

Shingen Uemiya thought about what had happened recently, suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, and blurted out: "Could it be that you are a descendant of the Orochi clan?!!"

"What do you think?" Sen said.

"...!"

Shanggong Shingen was shocked, and those warriors also showed fear.

There are many stories about the big snake and its descendants in the Eastern Japanese folk.Some adults often frighten children with this story.

For example, some adults are abducted by bad guys in order to prevent their children from going out.It will scare the children, saying that if they run around, they will be caught by the big snake.

It can be seen that the big snake is a feared thing in the hearts of every Eastern Japanese.

As the shogun, Shingen Uemiya knew more about what happened to Orochi hundreds of years ago.But he always thought that that incident was fake!Snake monsters don't exist at all.

But now seeing Sen's weird tongue with his own eyes, he only felt chills all over his body.

"So...it's only natural for you to deal with Shenqianle's clan. You descendants of Orochi hate Shenqianle the most."

"good."

"..."

Shingen Uemiya saw Mori calmly surrounded by hundreds of samurai, and realized something.

"Could it be that you...!"

He really wanted to know the answer to that matter, but he was a little afraid to know.

Mori laughed: "General, you are right. Our ancestor, Lord Yaqi, has awakened."

"!!!"

Everyone was shocked.

Shanggong Shingen immediately said: "It's impossible! That's just a legend!"

"Is it a legend... Do you have to see Lord Baqi with your own eyes before you believe it, General?"

"you……"

Boom!
Boom, boom, boom...

Suddenly a strong shock came from the ground, everyone couldn't stand, their bodies shook, and they all shouted.

"Earth Dragon! Earth Dragon turned over!"

"Run away..."

"Move! Don't fall into the crack!"

The warriors were in a mess for a moment.

Because there are frequent earthquakes in Dongwa, their response is also very standard.

Sen Que said calmly: "Don't panic, this is the sound made by Master Baqi from the ground."

"You bloody bastard!"

At this time, Shingen Uemiya couldn't control it anymore and let out a loud roar.

"Take him down!!!"

Although the samurai were flustered, some of them obeyed the order and drew out their samurai swords and slashed at Sen.

Sen sneered, swung his hands, and several shurikens flew out, killing seven or eight people.He leaped nimbly, pulled up more than two meters high, and easily jumped out of the encirclement.

"General." He said, "I came to you first this time, just for the sake of friendship between you and me, and I want you to seek refuge with Lord Baqi. Otherwise...huh."

After leaving a cold snort, he quickly walked away.

"I hope the general can give a suitable answer when I come back next time. Otherwise, Lord Yaqi will not spare you lightly..."

Sen's voice drifted away, and the warriors looked at each other, all powerless.

Most of them are ordinary people who know some sword skills, and there must still be a gap between them and Jonin. If the latter wants to leave, they can't keep them at all.

Just at this time, the sound of the earthquake also stopped, and Shanggong Shingen stood there, a little dazed.

"General, general..."

It wasn't until someone reminded him softly that Shanggong Shingen came back to his senses.

"It's actually true..."

With hindsight, he realized that he was neither used to nor able to accept what had happened so suddenly.

What did Sen mean?Take refuge in Yaqi, take refuge in a monster-like snake?
Isn't this a joke!
But Mori's attitude cannot be faked, he will definitely come back, and when he comes back next time, it will not only be himself... Yamata no Orochi will come too?

Shingen Uemiya regretted it in his heart. If he had been able to detect the conspiracy of these bastards earlier, it might be possible to stop it.

In the end, instead of stopping it, I even contributed to it.

"Shenqianle Clan..."

Shingen Uemiya took a deep breath.

He said to the samurai who were all staring at him: "Everyone heard Sen's words just now. They awakened the legendary Yamata no Orochi... This is undoubtedly the most terrifying nightmare in recent years."

"Now, you immediately go and inform all the soldiers of the shogunate to gather at the Daimyo Palace. We will fight the big snake there!"

Shanggong Shingen was impassioned, and the samurai were encouraged by him, and they all cheered up, and dispersed to inform others.

After everyone left, Uemiya Shingen's face became extremely gloomy.

He understood that Mori came to inform him in advance with only one purpose, and that was to tell him that the descendants of orochi, Yamata no Orochi and Koga ninja, would replace the shogunate and become the new controllers of the East Wa.

Sen came to inform, just to ask him to be more sensible.

But how is this possible?

Shingen Uemiya clenched his fists tightly. He has struggled for so many years and endured so much hardship. He managed to climb to this position with great difficulty, which is only one step away from his dream of being a daimyo.

It is impossible for him to give up now.

Moreover, he didn't have much awe of the Yamata no Orochi in his heart.

Even if there is such a monster, 100 people can't deal with it, what about 1000 people, or 1 people?
He asked all the soldiers to go to Daming Mansion because the terrain was wide enough to accommodate a large number of soldiers.

As for himself, he personally sits in the Daming Mansion, waiting for the Yamata no Orochi to show up.

As for the Bei'an Army...

Shanggong Shingen was agitated for a while, he is a little careless now, there are troubles on both sides, and a lot of manpower is needed.

But in contrast, the big snake is more important.

He must not tolerate his power being seized by some monster.If power is lost, he doesn't care what the country loves, even if it is destroyed!
Shanggong Shingen rushed to the Damingfu, and there were a large number of Ashgaru with him.

From all directions, tens of thousands of people came here.

Nobu Hojo was frightened when he found out.I thought Shanggong Shingen couldn't wait any longer, and now he was going to forcibly seize the position of daimyo.

However, Shanggong Shingen didn't do that. He just told Hojo Shinyagi about Orochi, and said that he would use the Daimyo Mansion as a command site to fight.

Hojo confidently went to be alone in fear, he thought that the prophecy of the great witch Kamichile was really accurate!Isn't the awakening of Yamata no Orochi a catastrophe...

On the outskirts of Nai Jing, a landslide split from the middle, and Yaqi's huge body jumped up from below.

It squinted its snake pupils and looked up at the sun in the sky.

"Hundreds of years..."

The slight pain in the eyes reminded him that he had been asleep for too long.

Not far ahead, the remaining dozen or so members of the Orochi clan were half-kneeling on the ground.

They were all extremely excited.

Because they know that Yamata no Orochi wants to establish a new order, and they will naturally be second only to their ancestors in the order.

Just like the brothers who joined the army want to add a yellow robe to become the emperor, the brothers in that part must be the happiest, and they can be a high-ranking official no matter what.

As for the ones that were eaten by Baqi earlier... who cares.

Including Sen, none of the survivors cared about death.

Mori himself was a little happy. The original ninja had been pressing on top of his head, which made him very unhappy.Now that Ninja is dead, he will naturally be the new Ninzong.

It's a bit cold-blooded to think like this, but perhaps because of inheriting the blood of Yaqi, all the descendants of the Orochi clan are very indifferent.

They have almost no feelings for others, and they are all business-like among their clansmen, and they are no better than strangers.

Only in the matter of awakening the ancestors will all the descendants of the serpent work together to cooperate.

Baqi glanced at the sun a few times, then slowly lowered his head.

Its entire flat head is covered with scales, these scales are harder than armor, and ordinary weapons can't hurt him at all.

And its physical strength is even more astonishing. Just by bending its knees and jumping, it jumped more than ten meters away and landed in front of Sen and the others.

"Master Yaqi..." Mori said, "Are you still hungry? As you ordered, I will immediately catch some people to fill you up."

He previously called Yaqi his ancestor underground, but Yaqi Orochi didn't seem to like this title very much, so Mori changed his name to adults.

Baqi said: "Today, there is no need...in the future...to pay tribute to 100 people every day...for food."

It spoke very strangely, but Sen could hear it clearly.

My own ancestor needs 100 people as food every day.This number is not small, but it is nothing for a country.

"Master Yaqi, in order to achieve a stable supply of food, we need to eradicate some enemies that hinder us. We are not strong enough, and I hope Lord Yaqi can help us."

"Where is the enemy..."

"In the Daming Palace." Mori said, "After eradicating all the enemies there, you, Lord Baqi, can become the king of this country. You can eat whatever you want in the future, and no one will get in your way."

"Da Ming Palace."

The name seems to bring back some old memories of Yaqi.

There was anger in its eyes.

"Daimyo Palace... Daming... Shenqianle Zixue...!"

God Qianle Zixue?
Mori's heart moved when he heard the words, he knew this name, it was the name of the first great witch of the Shenqianle clan.

It seems that the records circulated in the family are correct, the ancestor of Baqi was indeed sealed by the first great witch of Shenqianle.

Mori immediately claimed credit and said: "Master Baqi, we have wiped out the Shenqianle clan."

As soon as the words fell, Sen felt his breathing stagnate.

"Uh……"

Yamata no Orochi grabbed his neck and lifted him up.

"You're lying...the great witch of the Shenqianle clan...isn't dead...the breath of that bloodline...I can feel it..."

"Yes, I'm sorry eight... my lord..." Sen struggled and said intermittently, "Only she is still alive, the others are... dead!"
