They were about to arrive in Tokyo, and Zhang Wuji had to urge Qianye Kong again. Of course, the so-called "you will bear the consequences at your own risk" was true. If Qianye Kong could not do anything, then Zhang Wuji would really doubt her ability. Zhang Wuji would not care about an incompetent person.
After receiving the order, Longze Aoi and the others hurried to the army to look for Sakura.
But compared to Ryuzawa and Aoi's excitement, Sakura at this moment was filled with fear, trepidation, inexpressible panic, and a little at a loss.
Because Xiaoying saw too many headless corpses, and these headless corpses were the result of Zhao Min's order last night.
At the beginning, Sakura was still on the other side of the river, so she only knew that the Ming army had won another victory, but she did not know about the cruel methods used by the Ming army.
However, at this moment, she witnessed the cruelty of the Ming army with her own eyes.
The local laborers recruited by the Ming army were dealing with the headless corpses. The method of disposal was very simple, which was to throw them directly into the Edogawa River. As for the Japanese who died in the battle in Tokugawa Hideyoshi's camp, they were also loaded into a cart like a group of dead animals, and then taken to a place for burial.
Sakura has been with Chiba for many years and considers himself to be a knowledgeable and decisive person, but the scene before him only makes him feel sick.
However, just when Sakura was vomiting with a pale face, Ryuzawa and Aoi had already come behind her.
"Sakura, are you okay? If you can't bear to see this kind of scene, why don't you find a place to rest?"
Sakura turned around and saw that it was Ryuzawa and Aoi. She glared at them fiercely and said, "Accomplices, you are the accomplices of that devil."
Ryuzawa and Aoi are not people to be trifled with, they know who the devil Sakura is talking about.
After hearing this, Long Ze slapped him loudly without saying anything.
Five bright red fingerprints instantly appeared on Sakura's pretty cheeks.
"Your Majesty is the most noble man in the world. I don't allow you to call him a devil."
Sakura was beaten again. She wanted to fight back, but in the end she didn't dare to do so.
"Zhang Wuji kills so indiscriminately. Do you know how many people he has killed since he came to our Japan? You two are from Sakura Pavilion and are Japanese. Even though you have become Zhang Wuji's women now, why can't you persuade him to kill less?"
Sakura had just finished speaking when Aoi slapped her in the face.
"You bastard, we are not Japanese. My sister Longze and I are both citizens of the Ming Dynasty. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth apart."
"Japanese!" Sakura was stunned for a moment. At this moment, she didn't know what to say. If the word "Japanese" was said by the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, it would be fine, but when Longze and Aoi said it, it was really a bit too much.
"You, how could you two do this? Have you forgotten the cultivation that the Pavilion Master has given you?"
"Have you forgotten that you were once Japanese?"
Long Ze sneered and said, "Sakura Pavilion is not a serious place. In order to please Hirohito Hiroichi, Chiba Sora once gave us sisters to him. But fortunately, that idiot Hirohito Hiroichi later sent my sister and me to Ming Dynasty. If he hadn't made that decision, my sister and I would have passed by the most brave and powerful man in the world."
After hearing this, Sakura was speechless: "You two are hopeless, you, you are not worthy of being Japanese."
Long Ze couldn't help but laugh and said, "Unworthy? In your Majesty's words, there aren't any people in Japan. What's here are just a group of monkeys that haven't evolved completely yet."
"These monkeys are not the same species as us."
Sakura was stunned again. She never expected that Ryuzawa and Aoi could say such words.
Sakura said no more, because she knew that she, Ryuzawa and Aoi were from two completely different worlds.
Longze continued: "Sakura, His Majesty has already fought to the east of Edogawa River. I'm sure you know what this means."
"Continue eastward from here. In less than ten days, your majesty's army will be at the gates of Tokyo. Arrival at the gates of Tokyo is the final deadline. If Qianye Kong cannot send the defense map of Tokyo, then she will bear the consequences herself."
Sakura glared at Ryuzawa and Aoi coldly without saying anything.
Aoi smiled and said, "Sakura, I know what you are thinking. You think my Majesty is too cruel and why he has caused so much killing. But I want to tell you that even if my Majesty has caused some killing, it is the punishment the Japanese deserve."
"Back then, Hideki Musashi led an army of 200,000 to invade Middle-earth. It's only been a few years since this happened. Haven't you forgotten it?"
"After Musashi Hideki invaded Middle-earth, how many people did he kill with his butcher knife? Did those people deserve to die? After all, everything in this world is nothing more than tit for tat."
"If Hirohito Hiroichi had not sent the Musashi Hideki to invade Middle-earth many years ago, the current Emperor of the Ming Dynasty would probably not bother to waste time on this tiny country."
"If you think that the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are cruel, then think about the people of Middle-earth who died unjustly in the past few years."
Xiaoying quickly said: "Musashi Hideki did lead an army of 200,000 to invade China back then, but the number of innocent people he killed was definitely not as many as Zhang Wuji."
Longze laughed and said, "Xiaoying, you have been with Chiba for many years, but you can still say such things."
"Even if you're borrowing money, you have to pay some interest. When Musashi Hideki invaded China, he killed one person. Now, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty has come here in person to kill one hundred people. There's actually no difference between the two. The extra ninety-nine people killed are just interest."
"The longer you delay, the higher the interest rate will be."
After hearing this, Sakura was completely speechless. If a person changes his mind, then she can do anything.
Take Longze and Aoi for example, they have already regarded themselves as citizens of the Ming Dynasty, so when considering issues, they naturally stand on the side of the Ming Dynasty. This also makes it difficult for them to communicate with Sakura.
…
Three days later in the evening, the fast horses galloped all the way to Tokyo City. Tokugawa Hideyoshi did not hide the fact that he was defeated. The situation was like this. Concealing the battle situation would only make the masters of Tokyo City misjudge the current situation. In this way, it would only lead to more serious consequences.
"Baga, baga".
Above the Amaterasu Palace, Hirohito was still raging and roaring helplessly.
"The Edogawa defense line has been lost. Abe Saburo, Tanaka Ichiro, didn't you two say that Tokugawa Hideyoshi was a useful talent in our Great Japan? Why was the Edogawa natural barrier taken down by Zhang Wuji in just one day?"
