a.

Zuo Cun moved his arms.

"The speed of recovery is really fast." Luslan exclaimed.

"Your medical skills are good." Zuo Cun didn't feel any discomfort and smiled.

This scar extends from Zuo Cun's left chest to his left arm, and the deepest wound is Zuo Cun's left arm.

But now he has almost recovered. After all, no bones have been injured, and Zuo Cun's own resilience is different from that of ordinary people.

Putting on the Wu clothes and putting on the washed Yuori, Zuo Cun said goodbye to Hepu and Zhiyu, and smiled at Lu Silan: "It's a pity that I can't stay here for a few more days. "

"You still have things to do yourself." Lu Silan smiled indifferently, "Don't worry about me, if you encounter difficulties, just like this time, come to me."

Zuo Cun smiled and hugged Ruslan before walking out of Ruslan Medical Center.

Luslan smiled and shook his head.

Zuo Cun wore a bamboo hat, avoided the crowd, moved left and right, and came to a place in Kyoto.

Changzhou mansion.

Zuo Cun leaked his scabbard a little from under the cloth, and the guard at the door let it go.

Zuo Cun entered the mansion, went straight to the second floor, and knocked on the door of a room.

The door opened a gap, and the people inside stared at Zuo Cun, opened the door and pulled Zuo Cun in.

"Where have you been this week?" The man wiped the cold sweat from his temples and pointed at Zuo Cun angrily, "If you don't come today, I plan to go back to Changzhou!"

Zuo Cun smiled: "I was injured a little bit, a little bit serious. I have been hiding for the past two days to recuperate. If the injury is healed, I will come right away."

"It didn't delay anything, you said right."

"Mr. Gui Kogoro."

Gui Xiaogoro sighed: "That said, it's always worrying that you have disappeared for a week like this."

"The plan this time is determined by you and me, as well as Mr. Sakamoto and Mr. Takasugi. If you disappear, how should I explain to Mr. Sakamoto and Mr. Takasugi."

"So it's okay, why don't you worry so much?" Zuo Cun pulled the topic away, "I didn't know much about the news outside when I was hiding for the past two days. What's the situation in Kyoto now?"

Katsura Kogoro sat on the tatami and told Zuo Cun what had happened in the past few days: "This Ikedaya incident has spread all over the country in just a few days."

"Those who were attracted by my name survived, six survived, the others died on the spot, and the remaining few are expected to die in prison, so he said." His face showed With a smile, "This operation was successful."

The two bumped fists.

When the spring just started a while ago, a meeting was held among the four people, Ryoma Sakamoto, Shinsaku Takasugi, Anno Sacura, and Kogoro Katsura.

In the understanding of the four people, as Takasugi said, it is just a tool, a means of persecuting the shogunate and the powerful vassal.

But there is a group of people, a group of people that cannot be ignored, who really regard this tool as the ultimate goal.

This group of people is undoubtedly a hindrance.

So, the four conspired for an operation.

First of all, let Takasugi Shinsaku stir up a topic in the Changzhou domain and attract the eyes of stubborn foreigners.

Then, taking advantage of Katsura Kogoro's reputation as a barbarian giant, he gathered these people in Kyoto.

When the group of wolf cubs in Kyoto smelled the smell, it was absolutely impossible to let go of these guys who wanted to set the capital on fire.

On the day of the official party, Gui Xiaogoro was deliberately absent to ensure the safety of Gui Xiaogoro.

At this time, the Xinxuan team attacked and helped the four people complete the lore against this group of stubborn foreigners.

Zuo Cun, who had the strongest force, stayed nearby and was responsible for making sure that these people were almost dead.

It's just that Zuo Cun himself played a little off.

I chose a deadly battle location that limited my Hundred Birds, and I was seriously injured.

===Chapter 390 The Great Fire in Kyoto===

Yuanzhi first year, the end of June (the end of July 1864).

Changzhou domain.

"No, we absolutely can't swallow this breath!" A rough-looking man patted the table in front of him, very angry, "Almost all of our people have been eaten up by those Mibu wolves! We must not swallow this breath. !"

After the Ikedaya Incident on June [-]th, and at the same time that the radical forces of the Choshu Domain were almost wiped out by the army, the Shinsengumi, as a violent organization directly under the shogunate, became famous nationwide.

People call the Shinsengumi "Mibu Wolf" and "the Mibu wolf that eats people".

But this is absolutely a great shame for the only remaining leader of the Changzhou domain.

Takasugi Shinsaku and Katsura Kogoro, who were sitting in the room, glanced at each other gloomily, and smiled invariably.

The person who slapped the table angrily was called Kuijima Yubei, who was the only one left, the leader of the few foreign rebels.

"We have to swallow this sigh, there is no other way!" A man who looked rather prudent exchanged glances with Kajima Maubeiwei, "We have already made a loss, do we still need to go to Beijing to seek an explanation?"

This man is called Zhou Buzhenosuke, and he is a fellow traveler of Takasugi Shinsaku and Gui Xiaogoro.

Kojima Yubei gritted his teeth: "You can't just admit defeat in such a humiliating way!"

After saying that, Kojima Yubei angrily left the table.

Takasugi Shinsaku sighed.

He felt that things were not going to end so easily.

......

three days later.

These days, although the stable faction led by Takasugi Shinsaku, Katsura Kogoro and Zhou Buzhenosuke tried their best to calm the emotions in the domain, their arms could not twist their thighs.

The Changzhou clan has never been a stable and powerful clan.

Just like the bombardment of foreign merchant ships in Xiaguan, the Changzhou domain this time is determined to raise troops.

Led by the three elders, several officials of the Changzhou domain, in the name of "reporting the feudal lord's grievances to His Majesty the Emperor", directly raised their troops and charged towards Kyoto in a mighty manner.

Gao Shan Jin Zuo is stupid, you just take away the army built by Lao Tzu and give it away?

However, because these remaining radicals had been planning for a long time, they directly sent people to watch over a few important officials of the stable faction, and led their troops towards Kyoto without hesitation.

Takasugi Shinsaku tried his best to escape from the guards of the eyeliner, ready to catch up with the march and stop their plan.

However, the radical faction had long since colluded with the feudal lord. Before Takasugi Jinsaku could catch up with the army, he was arrested and thrown into prison, and he was also charged with "leaving the feudal feudal lord".

Katsura Kogoro was also very anxious.

Although it is necessary to rebel and overthrow the shogunate in the process of splitting and establishing a new government, it is obviously not the time yet, and he also collected information in Kyoto when he was in Kyoto a while ago. There are more than 1 people in total, including the Shinsengumi, and the army brought by Iemo Tokugawa.

Maki Izumi, Hisaka Genzui, and the more than 1000 soldiers brought by Kuishima Matabei will definitely end in a disastrous defeat.

Gui Xiaogoro secretly wrote a letter to Ryoma, hoping that Ryoma would let Zuo Village, who was still in Kyoto, think of a way.

But before the letter was sent from Changzhou to Nagasaki, Maki and Izumi had already reached Kyoto.

In mid-July, the soldiers of the Choshu domain launched an attack directly against one of the gates of Kyoto, the Tomomon Gate.

However, the Changzhou domain was originally a place of right and wrong, and the imperial court and the shogunate could not be disturbed. As early as when Maki and Izumi and Kusaka Xuanrui raised their troops, the shogunate issued a combat order.

When the soldiers of the Choshu domain attacked the Kagomon Gate, the soldiers of the Aizu domain and the Kuwana domain directly killed them from inside Kyoto.

However, the Changzhou domain actually suppressed the soldiers of the two domains by relying on the large number of guns purchased from the Kameyama Society.

But then, the soldiers of the Aizu Domain who were guarding another gate of Kyoto came and launched a surprise attack on the Choshu Domain from the side, and the situation turned sharply.

The Changzhou domain, which was attacked by San Francisco, fell directly into a critical situation.

Several generals leading the troops immediately ordered and began to retreat.

But with Aizu in front, Kuwana in front, and Satsuma in back, it's impossible to quit all of them.

In the end, several generals decided to abandon part of the army and let most of them escape.

And the soldiers of the Choshu domain who were left in Kyoto and abandoned, directly activated the backup plan.

Everyone took out the gunpowder and fire book that they had packed in advance, and set fires in Kyoto... crazy.

Because of the combustion of gunpowder, the fire spread very fast, and because the main army wanted to try to catch up with the Changzhou domain, the flames in Kyoto were not extinguished in time.

The result is-

The entire Kyoto was in a sea of ​​flames.

From outside the city, the entire Kyoto looks like a huge brazier, billowing thick smoke.

It is extremely difficult to put out this fire.

Early the next morning, after hearing the news, hurried from Mibu Village to Zuo Village in Kyoto and arrived in Kyoto, the fire still did not weaken.

"How... how could this be?" His pupils reflected the sky-high fire, unbelievable.

Without any hesitation, Zuo Cun entered the city directly and joined the fire fighting team.

Three days later, his whole body was scorched black, his face was blackened, and his hair was only burned to the length of his shoulder blades. Zuo Cun sat on the ground in a corner of Kyoto, gasping for breath.

In the past three days, whether it was the common people, the soldiers of various vassals, or the ronin stranded in various places in Kyoto, as well as the retainers and servants of some princes and nobles, they all participated in the extinguishing of the fire.

The fire in Kyoto was finally extinguished.

But not because of active firefighting, but because there is really nothing to burn, the fire is put out.

"Cough cough!" He coughed twice because of the smoke, "I don't know what happened to Ruslan..."

The fire started from the west, but it was mainly burning the streets of the north and south.

Ruslan's medical hall, on a street to the south, was one of the biggest fires.

Zuo Cun's face was black and blackened.

He walked down the street with a heavy heart.

The houses on both sides of the road have disappeared, leaving only crumbling ruins.

Burnt and disfigured corpses can be seen everywhere, and it is impossible to identify who it is.
