The author made a small mistake in the previous chapter.

"The Tiger of Fire" is the captain of the fourth team, Ren Saburo Mizushima, and Kanazawa is the "The Dog of Fire".

Moreover, Kanazawa's full name is "Kanazawa Tadasuke", not "Kanazawa Kazuki". I confused his name with another character (Leopard Head Crying.jpg).

The author has revised the previous chapter, please know everything.

Enhanced reflex nerves... Qingdeng nodded slightly, very satisfied with his new talent.

It just makes up for Qingdeng's biggest shortcoming at present.

"Hawkeye +1" greatly enhances Qingdeng's eyesight, but this leads to a new problem - sometimes, when facing an enemy attack, although his eyes keep up, his body does not keep up.

Qingdeng has obtained many talents in various ways, but he has not yet copied the talent to enhance the reflex nerves.

The body's reaction speed did not match his eyesight... When fighting with the man in black who was highly suspected to be Okabata Yishi, Aoden suffered this pain of "the eyes clearly saw through how the other party attacked, but the body could not cooperate with the eyes to act."

Good luck and won the grand prize - this should have been a very happy thing, but Qingdeng now has no time to savor this new and powerful joy.

He looked at Tadasuke Kanazawa at the same time, then turned around at the same time, looking at the "Fire-Fulong" who was walking towards them with his hands behind his back. The captain of the team I team: My grandson Tadaro.

I saw my grandson, who always smiled faintly on his face, rarely showing a serious expression at this moment.

"My grandson-jun." Kanazawa Tadao's mouth twitched slightly, "Aren't you already asleep?"

"I've really fallen asleep, but I've been woken up by the noise you made." My grandson sighed, "Do you think the march is not tired enough? I haven't slept at night, but I'm still competing with martial arts here."

After hearing this, Tadaosuke Kanazawa quickly spoke out and said, "We..."

He had just started to start his speech, and he interrupted my grandson:

"No matter what the reason for you, it is neither appropriate nor desirable to do such physical wasteful behavior during the march. Tonight's competition is not an example. Everyone should go back to the hotel to sleep now."

My grandson's tone was very calm, his tone was not high, and he didn't yell at the top of his voice, but there was a strange pressure invisibly, and the coach's aura was fully displayed.

It is rare to meet a martial arts master who is remarkable in both swordsmanship and practical experience. He just got hot and was about to concentrate and fight with all his heart, but my grandson suddenly stopped the competition with a few words.

This feeling of being in a state of silence...not to mention how uncomfortable it is.

Whether it is Qingdeng or Kanazawa Tadaosuke, they now have a depressed expression - especially Qingdeng.

Because there are few exchanges between the various teams changed by the Huofu Thieves on weekdays, Qingdeng Ben also plans to take advantage of this great opportunity tonight to get more talent from other teams.

However, Qingdeng and the others had to admit: My grandson was right.

They will continue to march tomorrow, and after they arrive at the front line, they will immediately prepare for the battle. The next series of military operations will be a great test for everyone's physical strength. It is absolutely right to retain more physical strength.

--never mind.

Qingdeng thought.

——Anyway, I have gained something tonight.

After thinking about it intimately, Qingdeng took the initiative to put down the bamboo sword in his hand.

Seeing Aoden set an example first, Kanazawa Tadasuke and others no longer struggled, followed up, put down the bamboo sword in their hands, bow and other things, and turned back to the hotel to sleep.

...

...

The weather is beautiful.

The battle started from the siege army from Edo, and the weather was sunny throughout the journey.

There was neither rain nor extreme weather such as sudden cold waves.

Jiafei is worthy of the nickname of "mountain country".

Since entering the Jiafei realm, the scenery around has undergone extremely obvious changes.

There are fewer plains and more mountains.

No matter which direction you look, you will see endless mountains.

Mountains are connected to mountains, and mountains embrace mountains...

Looking at the layers of Kakai Mountains, Aoden suddenly realized that this seemed to be the first time he had left Edo so far since he traveled through time.

After four days and three nights, the crusade finally arrived at the forefront of the battle on a bright afternoon: a mountain village called "Daohe Village".

Looking up, there were trees at the end of the country road under my feet, which stretched to the ridge. There were a few smoke rising from the back of the ridge - that was the location of Daohe Village.

Crossing the ridge, an instant, a stinky wind rushes towards Qing Deng.

Before he officially entered the village, Qingdeng had already discovered one scene after another of the tragic scenes outside the village.

On the open land not far away, the farmland that was mostly planted with rice not long ago has been trampled on by countless people.

The dense footprints are like seals, layer by layer, crisscrossingly on the mud of the rice fields.

The wilted rice ears, scattered rice seeds, broken farm tools, and all kinds of rags that could not tell what they were originally, were thrown everywhere and sprinkled.

There were also many people running back and forth in this "fragmented" rice field.

There are men and women, old and young - they must be the villagers of Daohe Village.

I saw the villagers of Daohe Village either took shovels, hoes and other utensils to sort out the messy land; or used the demolished wooden boards as stretchers to pick up and transport all the garbage and rags scattered in the mud; or stood in a corner of the rice fields without any effort, staring at the rice fields that were no longer as beautiful as the past, silently choking.

Ga! Ga! Ga! Ga!

At this time, several crows suddenly passed by and circled above the rice fields.

Their harsh screams add a strong desolation to this rice field that has been ruined.

Seeing this, Qingdeng couldn't help but feel emotion.

As one of the highest officers of this battle, he had learned a lot of information about this Daohe Village early on.

Rice and rice, rice and... Rice and rice ears are so beautiful that they mean something beautiful. However, the villagers living in the village have always lived a miserable life that is worse than death.

The target of Qingdeng and others in this Western Expedition was a group of bandits entrenched on Xiangma Mountain.

Xiangma Mountain: Although it is named "mountain", it is actually just a small peak with an altitude of less than 150 meters. Although the living conditions are very harsh, due to the dangerous terrain, it is a natural fortress that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The thieves who occupied Xiangmashan as the base area called themselves "Xiangmashan" and had a great influence.

According to conservative estimates, the number of bandits in the Suma people was guaranteed to be 200, including many warriors who had to become bandits because they could not survive.

Daohe Village is located at the foot of Xiangma Mountain, so it is often bullied by the Xiangma people. It is precisely because Daohe Village is very close to the Xiangma people that the fire thieves have chosen the village as the forefront of this war.

As far as Qingdeng knows, Xiangmazhong would go down the mountain every now and then ask the villagers of Daohe Village to "pay tribute".

"Tribute" items include and are not limited to: food, wine, clothes, women...

The Suma people have huge power. Just wave their hands and can make the entire village of Inao Village disappear directly from physical perspective.

In order not to endure the tragic situation of "death of a person and a village is destroyed", the villagers of Daohe Village can only accept it and endure humiliation.

If the grain harvest is good and the scenery is good, then the villagers can still leave a little bit of scraps that can barely make a living after "paying tribute" to the crowd.

But if the grain harvest is bad, the situation will be bad...

This year just so happens to be a famine with unsatisfactory grain output.

This year, due to various reasons, the grain harvest was severe, and a large number of Ikki broke out in various parts of Japan.

For a moment, people were in panic.

The shogunate and the vassal states in various places spent a lot of effort to finally suppress all Ikki.

Ikki: literally interpreted as "unity", which was extended to an uprising in ancient Japan. In vernacular, it is civil rebellion and civil unrest.

Ancient Japan referred to all acts of resisting the rule of the lord as "Ikki".

I don’t know who it is, but I once wrote a "Ten bandits will not rob, seven will not rob, five will not rob, and five will not rob, and those who like to be happy, those who are mourning, those who marry girls and send their wives, and those who are poor are not rob... It’s total nonsense!

Throughout history, no matter which country or region, the crimes committed by the bandits who occupied the mountains and became kings are numerous and hard to describe.

Some fools who don’t know how they are, even fantasize that the bandits are all a bunch of heroic heroes, fantasizing that they become other people’s women who suppress the village or something.

The bullshit you don’t rob, the seventh you don’t rob! The weaker you are, the more the bandits will catch you and bully you!

I hope that the bandits will have a way of robbers... The so-called delusion is just like this.

What the people of Xiangma have done deeply explain why so many people have hated bandits throughout the ages.

The situation this year is not good, and the lives of the villagers in Daohe Village are already very difficult, but the Xiangmazan still toughly requires the villagers to "pay tribute" on time and count, and no grain of rice can be left behind.

They even made harsh words and threatened: either give money and food, or give it to your head!

The snow and frost of the crowd of people has long caused the villagers to hold a burst of unpleasant anger.

These hateful bandits are really too much! This behavior of forcing people to the dead end directly triggered the anger that the villagers have been buried in their hearts for a long time!

The villagers picked up hoes, shovels and other things that could be used as weapons, and launched an angry counterattack on the crowd... and then immediately suffered extremely severe revenge.

The Suma people, who have an absolute advantage in terms of number of people, weapons and combat effectiveness, defeated the simple armed forces composed of the villagers without any effort.
To be continued...
