“Yes, Your Majesty!” Miyazaki Shio nodded immediately.
"Go down!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, please rest early." Miyazaki Shio stepped back.
But these words immediately angered Akihito, who shouted angrily:
"Rest? How can I possibly rest?!"
"Who can sleep at a time like this?! Huh? You can't possibly be asleep, can you?"
"I only slept for an hour, and Chuanxi Port has already fallen! If I continue to sleep, who knows what other bad news might come in!"
Miyazaki Shio's expression froze for a moment, but he still offered words of comfort:
"Your Majesty... there is no need to worry too much."
"The battlefield is in my Fusang, and our people are everywhere here. The enemy is isolated and cannot withstand the attack."
Akihito, still visibly angry, waved his hand dismissively:
"Get out of here!"
——
"General! There are too many! They're all enemy soldiers! Look! There are more enemy soldiers on their way!"
"It seems like there's no end in sight! They... they keep coming! They're everywhere! This..."
"We can't hold on much longer!"
On the chaotic battlefield of Akihara, Yoshino Chido, who had been hit by a lead bullet, clutched his bleeding left arm and spoke to Murata Kosuke with a pale face.
It was just past midnight, but the fighting was intensifying, and they were now in a losing position.
It is obvious that without reinforcements, everyone will die on this battlefield tonight.
Murata Kosuke, his hair and beard disheveled, was filled with grief and anger. He knew that tonight he would truly perish here.

Suddenly, shouts came from behind!
"Quick! Quick! Charge in!"
"Shiho Tamiya is leading an army into the war!!!"
"I, Jizangyuan Dunzhi, have arrived with my troops!!! Kill the Yan people!"
They're reinforcements!
Without a moment's frustration over the loss of Kawanishi Port or Yamanaka Takuma's defeat, the one who immediately rushed to the battlefield was—
Two armies from Chuanli County and Xianhe County!
Upon seeing the reinforcements arrive, Murata Kosuke was startled and burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha! Great!"
"Truly worthy of being called the finest men of Japan!!!"
He turned to look at Yoshino Chido, then said in a loud voice:
"Yoshino, I'm bursting with adrenaline! Come on! Let's defeat them!!!"
——
"You want to compare military strength with me?"
"I'm afraid you won't be enough to kill."
In the distance, behind the Yan army, on a high hill, Qin Ze stood with his arms crossed, speaking expressionlessly.
Then he yawned; he hadn't slept since crossing the sea.
