I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

Bang!

This time, it wasn't just the sound of the door being slammed.

There was also the sound of the door being knocked down and falling heavily to the ground.

The dozens of soldiers who were in charge of knocking on the door fell to the ground after the wooden door was finally overwhelmed, and the rest of the soldiers who were behind the dozens of soldiers who had already been ready to go immediately stepped over the ten. Several comrades who fell to the ground followed the door and rushed into the house along the door that was knocked open.

However, as soon as they rushed into the house, the soldiers were all frightened by the scene in front of them, stopped in their tracks, and froze in place.

Behind the gate of the mansion is a corridor that is neither long nor short.

At this moment, the floor of this corridor and the walls on both sides are all filled with knives and wakizashis. There are dozens of them in total.

Dozens of swords are densely scattered throughout this corridor, making this corridor look like a "steel forest" where swords are used as trees and flowers.

In the middle of this "forest", there are 3 people standing.

3 people who seem to be waiting for their arrival.

Chapter 241 Three Husbands in Charge!

"Come on"

Seeing that the generals of the shogunate finally broke in, Ogata, who was standing in the middle of the three, raised his left hand holding the saber, raised the saber in his left hand to his chest, and then slowly drew the saber out. sheath.

The cold light reflected from the unsheathed sharp blade, while bringing some light to this dim corridor, also illuminated Ogata's face.

Seeing Ogata draw his sword, the generals of the shogunate army in front all threw away the spears in their hands nervously, and pulled out the swords around their waists.

They are all elites in the army, so even without the commander's order, they know that the spears are not easy to use in such a narrow corridor. Not only is it extremely difficult to use well, but it is also easy to accidentally injure friendly troops.

Therefore, there was no need for an order from the commander, and they all changed their weapons very consciously.

The officer who was frightened by the "steel forest" in front of him finally came to his senses at this moment, swung the knife in his hand violently, and shouted: "Kill!"

Following the officer's order, the soldiers behind him shouted, raised their knives high, and killed the three of them towards Ogata!

However, even though the shogunate army had already launched a charge, the three of Ogata still looked unhurried.

Mamiya, who didn't even draw his sword, even asked Ogata and Mucun beside him in a half-joking tone:

"Want to come and see who kills more people?"

"I don't want it." After replying to Gamiya in such an annoyed tone, Ogata raised his sword and walked slowly towards the shogunate army who was coming towards him in front of him.

The swordsmanship practiced by the soldiers of the shogunate army is not a school or school of swordsmanship, but a swordsmanship passed down from generation to generation in the army.

The army is an organization whose main task is to plunder life, and the swordsmanship they teach is naturally not a "no-kill sword" that pursues "no-kill" for self-cultivation and self-cultivation.

Instead, it goes straight to the vitals of others and pursues the "killing sword" that kills people efficiently.

There are not too many fancy sword skills, and every move and style is very ordinary.

But these seemingly ordinary sword skills are deadly.

Of course, not all soldiers use swordsmanship in the army.

Just like the soldier in front of Oku.

At this moment, the soldier who was facing Ogata, only from the posture in which he held the sword, Ogata recognized at a glance that the sword technique used by this soldier was the Katori Shinto style of swordsmanship that he was quite familiar with.

The moment after the breath was switched to "Original Breath", the sword of the soldier who used the Katori Shinto style also happened to strike at Ogata's head with tremendous power.

This kind of battle with one enemy and many, Ogata also fought too much.

All played experience.

For this kind of one-to-many battle, Ogata summed up a lot of valuable experience.

One of them is that if you can not accept other people's swords, don't accept other people's swords.

Taking other people's knives hard will not only cause great damage to the knives in your hands, but also greatly affect your own physical strength, which is not conducive to your long-term combat.

After making a wrong step and using a step to avoid the soldier's attack, Ogata raised the sword in his hand, aimed at the soldier's throat, and stabbed at him without any hesitation.

The familiar feeling of the sharp blade piercing through the flesh and piercing the bone spread along the handle to the palm of the hand.

Before he had time to retract the saber, a soldier beside Ogata shouted while raising the saber in his hand and stabbing Ogata.

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the soldier's location and the attack he made, and without any hesitation, Ogata let go of the handle of the knife in his hand, and directly gave up the knife that was too late to draw.

With a short body, he dodged the soldier's stabbing attack, and then pulled out the wakizaru that happened to be inserted at his feet, and with all his strength, he aimed a bird stab at the soldier's abdomen.

A violent shock force made Ogata's hands and palms slightly numb.

After exerting all his strength and paying the price of directly breaking the tip of the wakizashi knife in his hand, he finally managed to pierce the soldier's armor and stab into his abdomen.

It's a pity that because of the protection of the armor, although it successfully pierced his abdomen, it still couldn't penetrate deeply.

Failing to inflict a fatal wound on the soldier, Ogata once again discarded the sword without hesitation, pulled out the knife stuck in the wall next to him, and slashed the soldier's face with a "falling water", giving him another knife.

After moving the ten fingers of his hands that were still slightly numb due to the shock force just now, Ogata thought to himself:

To deal with this kind of armor-wearing enemies, it is still necessary to cut less places where they are protected by armor.

When Ogata had already started killing, Jiangong and Mucun were not far behind Ogata.

After cutting the throat of a soldier in front of him with a horizontal slash, the knife in Mucun's hand remained undiminished, and he slashed heavily on the wall next to him.

"tsk"

Mucun shook the knife in his hand, and muttered, "It's really hard to use the knife."

Makimura is good at using Odachi.

And the knife technique he uses is a self-created knife technique, which he calls "Wo Liu knife technique".

The "Wo Liu Dao Technique" created by him is characterized by wide opening and closing.

His sword technique, coupled with his height and his Odachi, can exert great power in a wide area.

However, in such a narrow corridor, it is greatly restricted.

The astonishingly long Odachi is destined to be the same as a long spear in this not spacious environment, it is extremely difficult to exert its due power, and at the same time it is easy to accidentally injure his own people, so Mucun can only carry his Odachi on his back On the ground, reluctantly use the Da Dao to meet the enemy.

Because Mucun's knife technique is wide open and closed, he frequently cuts to the walls on both sides, or to the ceiling above his head.

It's just that although due to the knife technique, Mucun's body frequently appeared flaws, but still no soldier could hurt Mucun.

Although Makimura is tall, he is not bulky.

Even if there are frequent loopholes, Mucun can always rely on his extraordinary agility to quickly adjust his posture, preventing the shogunate army from having any chance of hurting him.

At the same time, because of Mucun's arm length, it was extremely difficult for the shogunate army to approach Mucun.

My own knife has not yet been able to cut Mucun, but Mucun's knife has already been able to cut them.

Because the three of them have different sword techniques, the number of enemies they have slashed so far is also different.

Mamiya currently kills the most enemies among the three, slightly more than Ogata.

One of the major characteristics of Wuhe Jiangong's sword technique is its speed.

The knife is as fast as lightning, and at the same time, the precision of the knife is suffocating.

"Oh oh oh oh!" A soldier with a loud voice yelled and rushed towards the palace.

Mamiya watched the soldier rushing towards him with great interest, then slowly retracted the bloody knife in his hand into its sheath, spread his feet leisurely, stood still, and then turned his side, Lowering the center of gravity of the body, the right hand rests naturally on the handle of the knife hanging on the left waist.

Mamiya and the soldier only fought one round.

Before and after rushing to Jiangong, a silent sword light swept across his neck, and then the soldier suddenly seemed to lose his strength, slowly slowed down, and then fell heavily on the ground.

Gamiya maintains the posture of drawing the sword, and the soldier who has fallen to the ground also maintains the posture of charging forward, but his head has fallen off, leaving only a thin layer of skin and flesh connected.

Chapter 242 Don't let one go!

The sound of shouting and killing on the first floor can be heard clearly even if it is far away on the third floor.

The villagers headed by Konnosuke huddled in every corner of the third floor, listening to the continuous sound coming from the first floor, with various expressions on their faces.

Someone showed fear.

Some people looked terrified.

Someone looked excited.

Some people look forward to it.

As for A-Machi——she was holding her wakizashi tightly, standing on the only staircase connecting the 3rd floor and the 2nd floor, looking solemnly towards the stairs.

"Miss Machi..."

At this moment, Konnosuke walked towards A-cho with a confused face, and asked A-cho.

"Aren't you going to help Mr. Ogata and the others?"

"I really want to help." A-Ming put on a bitter smile on his face, "But I have helped everything I can at the moment..."

"After setting up the enemy's position together, I actually want to stay and follow them to stop the shogunate army."

"It's just that Ayi told me—"This corridor is too narrow, and it can barely accommodate me, Mamiya, and Mucun to fight. If you add one more person, there is not enough space. A-cho, go to the third floor Protect them and help them.'”

"Although he said it nicely, I understand it in my heart - the real reason is just because my sword skills are not good enough, and staying there may get in the way."

"Although I feel a little upset, I have to admit——Ayi is right."

A-Machi shrugged.

"My principle of doing things is to do what I can help, and never do what is beyond my ability."

"Since I can't help you on the first floor, then I will obediently follow Ayi's instructions and come to the third floor."

A-cho turned his head and smiled at Konnosuke.

"Although I can't face the elite of the shogunate army head-on, I can still manage to protect you at the stairs on the third floor."

"...Thank you." Konnosuke with slightly red eyes said to A-Machi in a very solemn tone, "Thank you very much..."

"It's okay to thank you." A-Ming waved his hands freely, "Whether it's me or A-Yi and the others, they just want to save themselves."

"While saving myself, I'm just helping you guys."

……

……

The 150 soldiers of the shogunate army responsible for landing on the island have carried out two divisions since landing on the island.

1st Division - Leave 30 men to guard their ships.

The second division of troops - after breaking through the wooden wall of Fenghe Village, 2 people were left to guard the gap again to prevent islanders from escaping through the gap.

After the two divisions, there were only 90 generals left to attack the wall.

The 30 soldiers who were in charge of guarding the gap are all now ready with their knives out of their sheaths.

Although these people are all standing guard and monitoring the movement inside the wall, they are actually standing guard here with a rather relaxed mood.

Because they don't think that there will be islanders inside the wall who can escape here smoothly.

There were a total of 90 companions rushing into the wall.

With such a number of people, it must be easy to wipe out the unarmed islanders inside the wall.

It doesn't matter if there are really lucky islanders who escaped here from the siege of their comrades-in-arms.

There must be very few islanders who can escape here smoothly.

At that time, it will be enough to make up a few dollars for these islanders who are lucky enough to escape here.

In terms of the ease and safety of the task, it is second only to those comrades in charge of guarding the ship.

Because no one felt that they would encounter any danger in the task of "guarding the gap", very few people even started chatting there.

Just at this moment—a loud voice suddenly sounded from behind them:

"Isn't this a soldier of the shogunate? What are the soldiers of the shogunate doing here?"

The sudden loud voice startled all the 30 soldiers who were in charge of guarding the gap.

After turning their heads following the sound, they saw a huge and very strong man walking towards them slowly with a big naginata on his shoulders.

In addition to the strong man, there was also a young man of ordinary build who followed closely beside the strong man with a cautious look.

The young man seemed to be very afraid of the strong man's appearance, and he didn't seem to dare to step ahead of the strong man's pace when he walked.

Looking at the strong man and the young man who suddenly appeared, the 30 soldiers stood up as if they were facing an enemy.
