Volume 4: The Undead Chapter 238: The Shogunate Army Attacks (Part 1)
Ichijun is over 7 feet tall, and the length of one of his arms is even taller than some of Aotaro's subordinates.
With such arm length and the huge naginata, Yichun's attack range is so wide that it makes people's scalp tingle.
These subordinates of Qingtaro didn't even have the chance to touch Yijun and were directly killed by him.
With an attack range of this level, Ichichun's subordinates were not only unable to get close, but also unable to escape.
Many people who had lost their will to fight planned to turn around and run away, but none of them could successfully escape Yichun's attack range before Yichun's blade hit them.
Not only is the attack range wide, but Yichun's power is also extremely terrifying.
Aotaro saw with his own eyes—Ichijun cut three of his subordinates in half in one breath.
At the same time, the large naginata in Yichun's hand is still an extraordinary sword.
After killing so many people, there is still no nick on the blade, and it is still so sharp.
Yichun's tremendous strength combined with the precious sword allowed him to easily kill a man in armor by cutting him at the waist.
In less than 10 breaths, all of Aotaro's subordinates who remained here were slaughtered by Yichun.
Not counting himself and Sotaro, Aotaro already had 40 subordinates.
Twenty of his men are now following Sotaro to borrow rice from Toyowa Village, but for some unknown reason they have not returned yet.
The other 20 subordinates stayed here.
And now, these 20 people have all turned into incomplete corpses, scattered all over the ground...
However, Qingtaro did not have the time to feel sad about the death of his subordinates.
Because - Yichun was now dragging a large naginata that was still dripping with blood, slowly walking towards him...
"Wait, wait!" Qingtaro, whose face turned pale with fear, said anxiously, "I think there is no grudge between us, right? Why are you trying to kill us?"
"...Ah?" Yichun raised his eyebrows as if he had heard some stupid question. "Do you need a reason to do something that makes you happy?"
After saying that, Yichun slowly raised the large naginata in his hand.
" Wait ! Wait!"
Aotaro, who clearly realized that he had no power to fight back against Isshun, screamed out all the words of begging for mercy he could think of.
But Yichun remained unmoved by Qingtaro's pleas for mercy.
Just as Yichun clenched the naginata in his hand and was about to chop it down...
Bang...
Bang...
Bang...
…
A series of muffled sounds suddenly came from a distance.
"Hmm?" Yichun, who was attracted by the muffled sound, had a look of confusion on his face.
After slowly putting down the knife in his hand, Yichun quickly walked to the entrance of the valley and looked around in the direction of the sound.
Aotaro breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if he had "saved his life".
However, before Qingtaro had time to relax for long, Yichun's sudden voice made every nerve in Qingtaro's body tense again, and cold sweat began to break out from his skin again.
"Hello!"
Yichun, who didn't know what he saw, had a hideous smile on his face.
While turning back to look at Aotaro, he said:
"It seems like something interesting is happening there."
"I'll give you a chance to live, do you want it?"
Although he didn't know what this "chance to survive" that Yichun was talking about, after Yichun finished speaking, driven by the desire to survive, Qingtaro nodded quickly.
The intensity of the movement was so intense that it seemed as if he wanted to throw his head off.
"I have a problem, which is that I have a poor sense of direction."
“ Even more so in the dark of night.”
“I’ve clearly found the right direction and am walking straight ahead in that direction, but for some reason I always end up going the wrong direction.”
"Lead me to that place."
Ichijun raised the naginata in his hand and pointed it in a certain direction.
"Just take me to that place, and I will let you live."
Qingtaro, who was currently slumped on the ground, could barely see the scenery outside the valley entrance from his current position.
Therefore, Aotaro could see that the end of the direction that Ichijun's naginata was pointing was Toyowa Village.
…
…
A few breaths before Ogata began to comfort Amaji and Ichijun began to slaughter Aotaro's subordinates -
Click, click, click, click…
The torrent of sounds of armor colliding slowly approached the wooden wall of Fenghe Village.
About a few hours ago, Matsudaira Sadanobu arrived at the military camp and issued a bloody order to Inamori - to send out 150 elite soldiers tonight to wipe out all the living people still alive on Butterfly Island.
Inamori naturally did not dare to neglect the order , and immediately began to organize a landing force.
The 150 soldiers responsible for landing on the island were all elite soldiers in the army.
It goes without saying that their skills are far superior to those of ordinary soldiers. At the same time, they have all undergone special night combat training and are good at night combat. Even without torches, they can still see and move in a pitch-black environment.
After successfully landing on Die Island in the evening, the 150 soldiers were divided into two groups - 30 soldiers stayed on the coast to guard the ships.
Another 120 soldiers took advantage of the cover of night and began to advance into Die Island and launch a night attack on Fenghe Village.
As generals of the shogunate army, they naturally had a map of the Butterfly Island, and they knew exactly where Fenghe Village was.
These 120 soldiers were lucky - the journey to Fenghe Village was very smooth, and they successfully got rid of all the cannibals they met along the way.
The man in charge of the team was an officer who was nearly middle-aged and was highly regarded by Inamori.
When he finally saw the wooden wall that isolated Fenghe Village from the world, the expression on his face relaxed.
Arriving at Fenghe Village meant that half of their mission had been completed.
What they have to do next is very simple.
The officer waved his hand to his subordinates behind him and shouted in a low voice:
"Battering ram."
Following the officer's order, dozens of soldiers carrying a huge battering ram rushed towards the wooden wall in front of them!
This wooden hammer, which is specially used to knock down city gates, requires the combined strength of more than a dozen adult men to lift it.
They knew that Fenghe Village was surrounded by tall wooden walls, so they brought siege equipment commonly used in siege warfare.
This huge battering ram, operated by a dozen soldiers, rammed straight and fast towards the wooden wall of Fenghe Village, and then -
BANG!!
A deafening thud exploded in the ears of these soldiers.
The noise alarmed Ogata, Atachi, and everyone in Toyawa Village.
At the same time, it also alarmed Ichijun, who had just raised the naginata in his hand and was about to kill Aotaro.
Under the impact of the battering ram, the wooden walls in this area tilted inward significantly.
