I formed the strongest swordsman group.

Chapter 934 Qing Deng becomes more and more bloodthirsty and crazy [4600]

Nangong Mountain, the top of the mountain, the main camp——

A messenger ran quickly towards Takasugi Shinsaku, knelt on one knee in front of him, and spoke loudly, word by word:
"Lord Takasugi! Our army has gained the upper hand on the northern front!"

"It's just... due to insufficient manpower, the troops on the northern front can only suppress the enemy but cannot completely drive them back to the foot of the mountain!"

After hearing this, Takasugi Shinsaku nodded slightly:
"very good!"

"Send a message to the troops on the northern front: Maintain the current positive momentum and never let down your guard!"

"It doesn't matter even if we can't repel the enemy."

"As long as we can hold them back, our goal will be achieved."

"Isamu Kondo and Kame Serizawa are both brave and skilled warriors."

"If we become enemies with them, any carelessness may lead to irreversible and severe consequences!"

"Go and pass the message!"

The messenger answered loudly "Yes", then retreated with big strides and rushed to the northern front to deliver the message without stopping.

As soon as the messenger left, Omura Masujiro, who was standing next to Takasugi Shinsaku, said calmly:

"As expected, Tachibana Aoto has focused his attack on the southern front."

The Shinsengumi's main attack direction - this is not difficult to predict.

No matter from which angle or aspect, Qingdeng has no reason not to set the southern line as the main attack direction!
Therefore, in order to stop the Shinsengumi's offensive, Takasugi Shinsaku deployed most of his troops on the southern front.

As for the northern front, he retained only the minimum number of troops.

He had no further desire for the troops guarding the northern front.

As long as they can hold back the enemy and prevent them from getting close to the main camp or supporting the southern front, their mission will be accomplished.

Now it seems that they did not disappoint him!

Although they had few troops, with the help of "Decisive Battle of Dian", they not only successfully blocked the enemy's offensive! But also occupied a considerable advantage and suppressed the enemy!
There is no need to worry about the northern line for the time being.

Now, feeling a little less stressed, Takasugi Shinsaku can finally focus all his attention on the southern front.

Compared with the North Line, the South Line is the top priority...

Judging from the currently known information, Qing Deng has placed most of the Shinsengumi's high-end combat forces on the southern front.

Takasugi Shinsaku had no doubt about the effectiveness of "Battle of Yodo".

However, to be honest, he was not sure whether this "external force" alone could stop the swordsmen led by Niou.

He sat on the stool in silence and with a stiff expression, anxiously waiting for the messenger's report.

The overly anxious mood made the sense of time become strange.

He kept looking down at his pocket watch.

It felt like a long time had passed, but the minute hand had only moved a few spaces.

Only in front of Katsura Kogoro and Omura Masujiro did he dare to show his negative side so unscrupulously.

Finally... a messenger covered in blood stumbled and staggered into Takasugi Shinsaku's sight.

"Lord Takasugi! Lord Takasugi!"

Takasugi Shinsaku immediately perked up, not caring about anything else, and asked hurriedly:
"How's the southern front going?"

The messenger fell in front of him, gasping for breath and saying quickly:

"The enemy forces on the southern front... the southern front... have been suppressed!"

"Under our army's fierce attack, the enemy was defeated! On the verge of collapse!"

After hearing this, Takasugi Shinsaku and Omura Masujiro both breathed a sigh of relief, with joy on their cheeks.

However, before they could smile...

"Just, just..."

The messenger suddenly added.

Seeing the other party change the subject, Takasugi Shinsaku was stunned for a moment, then asked anxiously:

"Just what?"

The messenger showed a horrified expression that almost made him cry:

"There are four monsters, and we can't stop them!"

……

……

"Those four guys are coming to kill us! Hurry up and send someone from the rear!"

"The fifth gun squad has assembled!"

"Fifth Gun Squadron! Follow me!"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Don't just stand there! Come on!"

"Shoot! Shoot!"

"Fire! We finally got such advanced muskets, but all you know how to do is charge with bayonets?"

"Do you think I don't want to shoot? In this situation, how can we reload safely?!"

"Damn it! I can't hit them!"

"Damn it! There are too many obstacles here! It's hard to shoot them!"

"The Fifth Gun Team was completely wiped out!"

"What? Didn't they just go into battle?"

"Yes! But as soon as they went into battle, they were confronted by Niou and Tianjian!"

……

The soldiers of the Special Forces rushed forward in a hurry to fill the gaps on the battle line. Among them were some "biochemical soldiers" who had eaten the "Decisive Battle Sediment" and gained powerful strength from it.

They are very brave, and their courageous actions are admirable.

However... the battlefield in front of them was like a bottomless pit, constantly devouring lives!
Looking around, the front line has become a horrifying sea of ​​corpses and blood!
Four figures of different sizes stood there, their robes stained with blood, emitting a terrifying murderous aura!
In an instant, these four figures rushed out from the sea of ​​blood and corpses! They took the initiative to face the newly appeared enemy group!
The Bizen Nagashune in Qing Deng's hand drew a neat arc in the air, and with just one strike it chopped the bodies of the two men into pieces.

When he swung it again, two more bodies were shattered!

In a flash, Qing Deng had already penetrated deep into the enemy group! Like a small boat that plunged into the center of a storm, it charged left and right, breaking the enemy formation like waves breaking apart!

Souji, Nagakura Shinpachi, and Saito all showed their lion-fighting-rabbit momentum! They spared no effort in unleashing their sword skills, turning the enemy soldiers into corpses one by one.

They always wanted to catch up with Qing Deng in front and share his pressure.

What can they do... they simply can't keep up with Qing Deng's attack speed!

In desperation, they could only follow him closely and eliminate the remaining enemies that escaped his sword.

The four of them were silent, running, and attacking.

The enemy soldiers were screaming, dying, and collapsing.

There was no one else wearing light green haori around the four of them.

In other words - they really broke through the enemy's formation with only four people and turned the tide of the battle!

……

……

After the death of the captain of the first musketeer team, Matsumiya Sagara, and others, the responsibility of commanding the southern line troops fell on the shoulders of the captain of the second musketeer team, Matsumura Gorokuro. To be fair, although Matsumura Gorokuro's personal ability may not be that outstanding, he was able to become the captain of the second musketeer team of the special forces, so he must have some ability.

However... the extremely noisy battlefield movements, the ever-changing battlefield situation, and the increasingly severe battle situation were like a raging torrent that poured into his mind! He was overwhelmed and dizzy!

He even had the urge to give up on himself and abandon his position.

Like Takasugi Shinsaku, Matsumura Gorokuro was very resistant to the "decisive battle at Yodo".

Apart from anything else, the side effects of taking this substance alone would make him stay away from it.

But...even though he was filled with disgust, he had to admit: this strange pill named "decisive battle" was indeed worthy of its name!

The fighting power displayed by the soldiers who swallowed this medicine... To be honest, even though Matsumura Gorokuro was mentally prepared for this, he couldn't help but feel his throat tighten and was shocked!
We can win! As long as we use the power of "Decisive Battle Yodo", we will definitely be able to defeat the Shinsengumi - he determined this with full confidence.

In fact, when the war broke out, his judgment was absolutely correct.

The Shinsengumi were caught off guard by the change in the Kiheitai's combat power and were beaten to pieces!

Without a doubt, this was the most embarrassing day for the Shinsengumi since its establishment!
Seeing that the Shinsengumi's front line is about to collapse... Suddenly, Nioh and the "Shinsen Three" go into battle!

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

It was these four people... Only these four people! No matter how hard Matsumura Gorokuro and the others tried, they couldn't stop them!

They are like lions among dogs! They stand out from the crowd!

When he thought that these four people were about to kill him, Matsumura Gorokuro felt a chill run through his body.

Although he felt timid, his loyalty to Takasugi Shinsaku, his support for the cause of Sonnōjō, and his hatred for the shogunate gave him the courage to fight.

With a clang, he drew the sword from his waist and raised his head and shouted:
"Second Gun Team! Follow me!"

The Second Gun Squadron under his command was the last unit he could freely call upon...

While drawing his sword, he took out a red pill from his waist, put it in his mouth, chewed it roughly a few times, and then swallowed it in one gulp.

Then, within just a few breaths, his eyes changed significantly - they became extremely focused, and his entire temperament became completely different.

"Follow me!"

He led the soldiers of the Second Gun Team to the front line!
In a moment, a strong smell of blood hit my face.

Just by smelling this smell, you can intuitively feel the cruelty of the front line!
Tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick…!
Without any warning... the rapid sound of footsteps coming from the front made Matsumura Gorokuro feel goose bumps all over his body!

"Captain Matsumura! Be careful!"

Along with this reminder, a blood-stained light green haori filled his entire field of vision...!
Qing Deng turned into a shadow and flashed in front of Matsumura Gorokuro like a whirlwind, and swung the knife covered with blood and fat from below!

Matsumura Gorokuro's pupils instantly shrank to the size of a pinhole.

He had heard about the tragedy in which the captain of the First Gun Team, Matsumiya Sagara, was chopped away by Qing Deng.

Therefore, he didn't dare to take it head-on and twisted his body to the right, trying to dodge it.

With the help of "Decisive Battle", his skills became exceptionally agile and his reaction speed was greatly enhanced.

What a pity, he still underestimated Qing Deng's slashing speed!
After striking in the air with his sword, Qing Deng immediately adjusted the direction of the blade, aimed at the direction where Matsumura Gorokuro was escaping, and struck again - this series of actions happened almost simultaneously!

Not to mention a chance to catch his breath, Matsumura Gorokuro didn't even have time to blink before he had to face Qingdeng's second slash.

His body was still in the action of "dodging to the right" just now. The old strength had been exhausted and the new strength had been generated... This time, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't dodge it!
The Bizen Osafune slashed deeply into his chest, splashing out a thick mist of blood.

He groaned a few times and then gradually lowered his head. His limbs went limp, the knife fell, and he knelt on the ground. A large pool of blood immediately spread out on the ground with his body as the center.

The captain of the Second Gun Team of the Special Forces, Matsumura Gorokuro, was killed in action!

He had clearly taken the "Decisive Battle Drops", but he didn't even put up a decent resistance before dying tragically at the hands of Qing Deng!
Seeing Matsumura Gorokuro being killed instantly, the soldiers behind him all showed expressions of horror, and even their pace of charging slowed down.

"What's wrong? Why are you in a daze? Come over here quickly."

Qing Deng's calm voice reached their ears.

Also reaching their ears was the sound of the crackling blades!
……

……

"The enemy has only become a little stronger, but you are already at a loss. I am really disappointed" - Qing Deng just said this to the soldiers, half for the purpose of provoking them, and the other half because he was really angry.

Just because they encountered an unexpected strong enemy, they panicked to such an extent that the battle line was almost collapsed... It's really outrageous!

For the first time, Qing Deng felt disappointed with the army he had built.

Facts have proved that the current Shinsengumi is still quite far from the indomitable iron army he envisioned!
In addition to regret, there is another emotion - called "anxiety" - lingering in his heart.

He has always regarded "protecting important people" as his responsibility.

But the result...

Tokugawa Iemochi and Tenshoin were trapped in Edo...

Hijikata Toshizo and Elodie were struggling to survive on the Hachioji Plains...

In order to help him conquer the "high wall", Shannan Jingzhu was seriously injured...

Whenever the faces of Tenshoin, Hijikata Toshizo and others flashed through his mind, he would unconsciously tighten the sword in his hand!

Get out of my way... I don't have the time to fight a messy battle with you guys in Sekigahara!

I want to become even stronger!
This anxiety and anger created the scene right now - he dared to charge straight into the enemy's main camp with only Souji, Nagakura Shinpachi, and Saito Hajime!
He consciously put himself in danger, rushing to wherever there was danger, not giving himself any chance to breathe, charging, swinging his sword, and fighting without stopping!
He is well aware of his own characteristics - his potential will only be unleashed when he is forced into a desperate situation!
After chopping down Matsumura Gorokuro, he suddenly leaped towards an enemy soldier like a hungry tiger pouncing on a sheep.

As he leaped up, he raised the Bizen Osafune in his hand above his head, and then with the help of gravity and the potential energy of his falling body, he chopped the knife down fiercely!

Qing Deng's body functions are very strong, and you can't fight him with swords - although this is widely known, but in the fierce battle where things change rapidly, few people can "control their bodies freely."

Looking at Qing Deng flying over, the other party subconsciously raised the flintlock in his hand, intending to take it head-on.

The consequences can be imagined - Qing Deng directly chopped off the flintlock, and then, with the remaining force, chopped the man in half.

clang!
Suddenly, a strange clanging sound was heard - the Kitabizen long ship in Qing Deng's hand broke!
The blade broke in the middle, leaving a fracture like broken glass.

The sword is broken... This is actually a matter of course.

Although the Bizen Osafune is a rare and good sword, it cannot withstand the use of Qing Deng!

Qing Deng looked expressionlessly at the half-broken blade in his hand, then threw it away without blinking.

In fact, he wanted to change the knife since just now.

After killing countless people, the Bizen Osafune, covered in blood and fat, had become unusable.

Since it's already broken, just change the knife!
Just at this moment, an enemy soldier saw the opportunity of Qingdeng's broken knife, stepped forward hurriedly, thrust out the bayonet in his hand, and stabbed Qingdeng in the chest.

Qing Deng quickly jumped to the right.

When his feet landed back on the ground, he suddenly saw a katana in his right hand - it was pulled out quickly from the opponent's waist at the same moment he dodged, with such a quick and swift movement that it seemed like lightning.

After snatching the knife, Qing Deng swung the knife back, slashing at the opponent's body.

The opponent is also a "biochemical warrior" who has eaten the "Decisive Battle Sediment".

He took a half step back, trying to avoid Qing Deng's attack.

But in fact, the chopping is fake, and the cutting in half is real!

At the same moment he retreated, Qing Deng quickly changed his tactics! He slid forward like a loach, passed under his left armpit, and let the blade from the guard to the tip of the blade completely cut across his waist and abdomen.

——It’s not enough…

He attacked the next opponent without a break.

At this moment, he was no longer limited to "slashing", but directly swung the blade horizontally, hitting the opponent's cheek with the blade.

Although it was just the blade, it was an iron tool after all, and a lot of force was used, so the man's facial bones were probably broken.

——It’s not enough…!
He chopped twice in succession, and when he pulled the knife back, a total of four people fell to the ground.

——It’s not enough! I want to become... even stronger!
Suddenly, wisps of strange light appeared and disappeared in his eyes - this was a light that was completely different from the "state of no self".
