Chapter two hundred and sixty-eight thousand cavalry generals
Chapter 268 Thousand Cavalry Generals
A few days later, a very legendary day in the history of the Hachiki Kingdom came.
On this day, the most famous shogun, Kikugawa Yukizuki, the most famous shogun in the history of the Hachiki Kingdom, cooperated with his right-hand man, the mysterious visitor "Blood Fox" Nidis "Sin Star" Sith from the Roland Continent, and the "Lone Wolf" Roddy began his adventure in Kyoto.
According to the research of many scholars in later generations, the origins of these three mysterious visitors are always controversial. Because according to the later disclosure of General Kikugawa Yukizuki, these three strong men are from the well-known "dark mercenary" organization on the Roland Continent, and the beautiful "blood fox" Nidise once said in person that the "dark mercenary" used countless masters, and its power was spread across the two continents of Roland and Guangming. It can be regarded as a huge force in an underground world.
However, countless scholars from later generations have almost scratched their hair, and they have not been able to find out what this "dark mercenary" is...
At this moment, Nidis was sitting in the carriage and pretending to sleep. She consciously leaned on the soft velvet backrest, but her head was already tilted on Roddy's shoulder. The expression on her face was like a lazy kitten. At this moment, Nidis, the "blood fox" at this moment, never thought that her nonsense had left a difficult problem for those scholars in later generations...
Roddy had lifted up the curtains on the mount window. From a distance, after a few days of rushing, Kyoto of the Hachiki Kingdom was already in front of her.
The architectural style of this city is obviously basically similar to Kawado City, except that the city walls are taller. The buildings next to the road are still some low buildings. However, there seem to be more troops coming and going, and teams of fully armed troops are walking to the south.
The main road leading to Kyoto is very wide. The main road is not the most famous iron wood in the island country, but it takes a lot of effort to plant a row of willow trees that look very romantic.
In the breeze, Yang Liu Yiyi and the soldiers' golden swords and iron horses shine together, showing a bit of iron-blooded and tender feeling.
"It seems that the war in the south is quite tight." Sith sat opposite Roddy, looking out the window, and couldn't help but whisper.
Roddy smiled slightly and nodded. It seemed that the king's army must have put a lot of pressure on the dwarves in the south.
After entering Kyoto City, Roddy discovered that Kyoto actually had two walls, the inner city and the outer city! After entering the outer city wall, most of the people living here were civilian businesses, and the streets seemed a little messy.
The inner city wall was a little taller than the outer city wall. There were a group of full armored warriors standing on it. These warriors wore an extremely strange double-horned helmet and a narrow and long samurai sword hanging under their waists, which was obviously quite martial.
Kikugawa Yukien was a little awake at this moment. Although he was a little tired all the way, since he had returned to Kyoto, he immediately became excited and introduced it to Roddy and others.
Most of the people living in the inner city are rich and wealthy families with status. The streets are much wider than those in the outer city. People often cannot see the noise and chaos. People bow their heads and look serious. There are even more cars and horses coming and going.
"The road we are walking now is called 'Sakura Teng'. On the left side of the road, there are the territories of officers, generals and retainers under my father's shogunate, and on the right, there is the power of the royal nobles." Kikugawa Yukizuki smiled and said, "And this road continues to move forward, you can see the mountain in the distance..." Kikugawa Yukizuki's tone gradually became serious: "That is the highest mountain in our Hachiki Kingdom, the people also call it the Mountain of Wealth. This is the racial symbol of our Hachiki people. You can see the snow on the mountain from afar, but this is a sacred mountain! Every few decades, flames will spew out of the mountain pass!"
Roddy's heart moved... Well, the mountain that spewed out flames? Isn't that just like the "volcano" described in the "Sunflower Book" left by Master Dandong?
Nidise sighed. She seemed to have known this for a long time. She actually showed a bit of fascination on her face. She suddenly laughed: "This mountain seems to be a royal restricted area, and outsiders can't get in. I really want to go in and see what such a magical place is like."
The Sith also showed some fascination, but sighed, "Can it spit fire? So how did Kyoto come here so close to it, so how did he get there for so many years?"
"Well, this mountain has been enclosed for the land of the royal family, and the palace where the royal family lives in our country is at the foot of the mountain! Although this mountain erupts flames every hundred years, there is still a big lake with a radius of more than ten miles below the mountain! Every time the sacred mountain erupts flames, a large sea of fire flows down from the mountain pass, and when it flows to the lake at the foot of the mountain, it will be blocked. So it will not endanger the distant Kyoto Castle and the palace at the foot of the mountain." Kikugawa Yukien smiled and said, "The last eruption of the sacred mountain was fifty years ago, so there is no need to worry about this for the time being... Well, if you are interested in it, we might as well go and have a look together another day. Although the sacred mountain is the territory of the royal family, you can't get in, but the lake at the foot of the mountain can still be seen close to see it."
Roddy lowered her head and thought for a while, and suddenly said, "You said this mountain will spit fire, so I guess every time it spits fire, the earth must have trembled?"
Kikugawa Yukienaki said "Yi" and said in surprise: "How did Mr. Roddy know? This sacred mountain will indeed tremble with the earth when it is blasting fire. It must be the reason for the wrath of the gods. However, only our dwarves know about this kind of thing. Where did you know about it?"
Roddy shook her head and did not answer. She just focused on looking at the tall mountain peaks in the distance, as if she was tracing her mind.
Suddenly, when he heard a buzzing bell sound from outside, Kikugawa Yukien raised his eyebrows and said loudly: "This is my father who is ordering the ministry to be concerned about the affairs of the ministry. We just happened to go to the shogunate first and report to my father about my trip to Kawado this time."
After saying that, he looked at the three of them with inquiring eyes.
Nidise smiled slightly and said, "Young Master Kikugawa, don't worry, we will accompany you. As long as you pretend that nothing has happened, we will do as we have agreed on the way, we will naturally help you secretly."
Kikugawa Yukien showed a hint of joy on his face and nodded vigorously.
The shogunate is on the left side of the "Sakura Pass" road, which is somewhat different from what Roddy imagined.
It turned out that in his imagination, the core location of the highest power of the Hachiki Kingdom should be the kind of huge building with brilliant golden walls and heavy guard. But when he really walked here, he found that it was just a large area of short houses.
The outer edge of the wall was surrounded by rows of green trees. Apart from the few warriors at the door, there were no soldiers patrolling back and forth.
The building in front of me is extremely simple and elegant in shape, not like a general's residence, but rather like a scholar's library.
The warriors of Hideyoshi Fuji who had just been collected outside had already stopped the carriage and stood on both sides. Hideyoshi Fuji was also a little nervous. He opened the car door and helped the people in the carriage one by one. The warriors at the door saw that it was Yukizuki Kikugawa, and immediately ran in to report it. Others also greeted them and stood on both sides.
Yukien Kikugawa returned to his territory, with a somewhat arrogant expression in his expression. He was about to say something loudly, but he heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the road behind. Seven or eight war horses swept from the street like a whirlwind. They ran to Yukien Kikugawa and suddenly stopped. The knight's horse was extremely skilled in equestrianism. Although the horse stopped the horse while the horse was running rapidly, the war horse became manpower and neighed, but the knight on the horse was calm and calm and fierce.
However, Kikugawa Yukien, who was not far away, saw the galloping horse approaching him, and a little fear appeared on his face.
The knight immediately showed a disdainful smile on his lips, turned over and jumped off the horse. He stood in front of Yukizuki Kikugawa and said lightly: "Yueen, are you back?"
Roddy then looked at the guy in front of him carefully.
This man is taller than ordinary dwarves, and his figure looks quite thick and strong. He wears a samurai uniform sewn with coarse cloth. The coarse cloth not only shows any vulgarity on him, but instead highlights his mighty and tough spirit! Seeing that he is less than thirty years old, his long hair tied up a dwarf samurai hairstyle behind him, with clear lines on his face, especially a bit of lust in his eyes.
Could this be the other son of the old General Kikugawa, Kikugawa Yasuichi?
Roddy and others did not know Yasuichi Kikugawa, and were hesitating whether to go up and pretend to be saluted. The young samurai had already glanced at Roddy and the other two. When he saw Nydise, a bit of invasive gaze appeared in his eyes. The gaze looked up and down unscrupulously, and even couldn't help but stick out his tongue and add lips. When he saw Roddy, his eyes flashed with a gleam, and looked back at Yukien Kikugawa, and said in a deep laugh: "It seems that Yukien has recruited a few experts when he comes back this time!"
Kikugawa Yukizuki's eyes were suppressed with anger, but he still replied calmly: "Mr. Nobunaga was joking. These are my newly acquired generals."
Then he looked at Roddy and the other two, and Kikugawa Yukien said in a deep voice: "This is the number one general under my father's command in the shogunate, the 'Thousand Cavalry General' Oda Nobunaga!"
