Su Shuang's world is collapsing [Comprehensive]

Liu Quan frowned after listening, but there was nothing he could do.

"Where is Yi-kun?!" She could only interrupt Harada.

Harada shook his head, and the worried expression on his face deepened.

"No news has come in yet."

Liu Quan was silent for a moment, "Then, what about Team Chunri?!"

Harada said unsurely: "...should be able to hold on for a while...?! The news I got before is that those guys really deserve to be Tama's good men, and they are fighting desperately with each other..."

With a heavy heart, Liu Quan raised his head and looked in the direction of Mount Iwasaki, where Shinpachi and Kasuga's team were defending, but they couldn't see anything clearly except for billowing smoke and dust.

Kondo stood not far from them, as if he had heard all of their conversation.However, since the start of the war, it has been in a bitter battle, and the situation is overwhelmingly unfavorable to our side. The enemy has continued to kill and injure our own soldiers who only have swords in their hands and are at a loss as to how to use artillery and rifles by means of spears/guns and shelling; positions Flesh and blood flew everywhere.This cruel reality seems to be about to knock Kondo down.

He stood there blankly, with an unbelievable expression on his face, looking sadly at the three positions where the fierce battle was unfolding, watching the shells fall on his own position, sand and stones flew across, and after the smoke and dust cleared, the soldiers fell to this side. Suffering varying degrees of injuries on the ground, unable to move... He murmured, "Damn...how...how did this happen?!"

Only then did Liu Quan remember that Kondo had not participated in the Battle of Toba Fushimi because he was seriously injured by the stabbing, so he had not seen the cruel scene of the defeat of the Shogunate army either.Lacking the necessary understanding of the advanced tactics and equipment of the new government army, they simply thought that this was the era when they could win with superb swordsmanship and firm belief—however, such an idea is completely outdated.

Suddenly, a bloody team member stumbled over—a few steps away from Liu Quan and Yuan Tian, ​​and fell headlong to the ground!

Kondo, Liuquan and Harada were all taken aback.Harada quickly ran up to help the soldier up.

"Hey! Are you okay?! How's it going—"

His voice stopped abruptly.Because he had already noticed that there was a blood hole pierced by bullets in the soldier's abdomen.In fact, it is already a miracle that the team member ran so far covering the wound he was shot.

The team member did not answer Harada, but said hastily and intermittently: "...the enemy...surrounded from behind...fired violently...we suffered heavy casualties! Hurry...go for reinforcements...the Saito group—— "

Before the word "long" was uttered, the soldier's body collapsed heavily under the support of Harada's arm, and his head was tilted to one side.

Harada couldn't bear to close his eyes, and put the team member's lifeless body on the ground before standing up and looking at Kondo.

"What now? Mr. Kondo?!"

Kondo's face was tense, and the eyebrows were almost twisted into a knot.

It's not that he doesn't know how difficult the situation everyone is facing, but now the formation is almost about to be broken by the enemy!There is no soldiers to help!But it is obviously impossible to let Saito live and die in Kannon-zaka so cruelly. The Shinsengumi must not treat their companions so ruthlessly!But now, what else can I do——

Liu Quan took a deep breath and said resolutely, "Mr. Zuo, you are here to protect Mr. Kondo. I will go to Guanyinban alone to reinforce."

Kondo:! ! !

Harada:! ?

After making such a decision that was close to death, Liu Quan's face was pale, his lips trembled, but he still held the sword in his hand, raised his head and forced a smile at Kondo and Harada.

"...You can't just leave Yijun there. Someone has to help him..."

Her voice seemed to be trembling, but the content of her speech was simple and extremely brave, even revealing a hint of reckless bravery.

"Mr. Kondo and Zuo Zhi-kun... Both know my ability. As long as we can cooperate well with Kazu-kun, maybe... we still have a chance to fight back. It is not impossible to destroy the enemy army."

With a trembling voice, she tried to make a joke, but neither Kondo nor Harada laughed.

Kondo seemed to be completely overwhelmed by her suicide-like decision, muttering "How can a woman die alone?" Have you reached such a point where people look down on you?" His face was full of painful self-blame, as if he was going to stop her in the next second, or he was going to announce that he would go to the reinforcements in person when his blood was rushing and his head was hot. .

...Speaking of which, the director is a traditional and old-fashioned man, no matter how many times she or the deputy director reiterates that she does not need special treatment, the director always thinks that she is the kind of person who deserves to be treated and cared for. .So now I have to watch her risk her own life to rescue her loyal subordinates who have followed her since the beginning, it feels very difficult to accept...it must be painful.

Without waiting for Kondo to speak, Liu Quan said to Harada first: "Then, please take care of everything here in this formation."

A trace of unbearableness flashed across Harada's face.He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to stop her, but his reason clearly told him that they had no other way to go now.

"Hello! Xue Ye!" He called out to her, but it seemed that he didn't know what to say for a while.It seemed that his usual easy communication skills were completely useless at this time, he thought hard and managed to squeeze out a sentence.

"If you... let us tell the deputy chief..."

Liu Quan seemed a little surprised, paused, and suddenly laughed.

"Deputy Chief?!" She had already walked a few steps away, but at this moment she stopped because of Harada's shout and turned around, looking at him with a soft smile on her pale face.

"Don't worry. I will tell him myself that I left my post without authorization and went to support Yi-kun. At that time, I hope he won't go into a rage and make me hara-kiri."

She said it half-jokingly, her tone finally got rid of the bewilderment, apprehension and fear just now, and even revealed a little bit of relaxed emotion.

"Also, the order given to me by the deputy chief was 'in the most dangerous time, protect Kondo-kun with Saito'—" She skillfully omitted the premise of the deputy chief's order—when the battle was lost.

"...If even Yijun is lost, I have not fulfilled the deputy chief's order." A trace of determination appeared on her face.

"So, here in this formation and Mr. Kondo, please leave to you. I'm going to get Yikun back."

She said the previous sentence with force and force, making Harada's throat tense as if there was a lump in his throat for a moment; as a result, the tone of the second sentence immediately became light and light, as if Saito was a lost puppy. .

Laughter and sighs crowded Harada's chest at the same time, causing him to be unable to utter a sound. He could only look at Liu Quan and nodded vigorously, watching her turn around resolutely, and put his left hand on his waist The strangely shaped sword that was re-sheathed rushed towards the mountain in the north at a trot.

Bearing the bullets whizzing around his head and sides of his body and the fragments of shells that exploded along the way, Liu Quan quickly burrowed into the woods and ran towards Guanyinban.

Although being in this kind of killing hell would always be scary, fearing that she would be injured or die, but she always kept in mind that the system bacteria had guaranteed it from the very beginning, and players would not really receive the box lunch.It's just physical pain, and it won't detract from it.

Stepping on the uneven mountain road in the forest, Liu Quan pushed aside the branches of the big trees on both sides and ran all the way.

It's hard to imagine how Xiao Yi fought against the enemy under such a disadvantage.There is no need to talk about objective aspects such as numbers, combat power, and firepower equipment. You can tell just by looking at the seriously injured team member who went down the mountain to ask for help——Xiao Yi was a cold-blooded swordsman before, no matter when and what kind of mission he performs, no matter how difficult it is, Didn't send anyone for help? !

In Youxiaolu, didn't he face dozens or hundreds of Satsuma soldiers alone?At Ryuunji Temple in Fushimi, didn't he fight Amegiri Jiuju alone?Every time it was a tough battle that was so close to death and there was no certainty of victory, but he never took the initiative to ask for help.Liu Quan went to reinforce, one time because of Shannan's order, and the other time because of Tu Fang's assignment.

But now... the mouthless swordsmen of the Shinsengumi, what are they going to face——

Liu Quan got out of the woods in one breath, and before he looked around the scene, he suddenly felt a cold and sharp murderous intent coming towards her from behind, causing the hairs on her body to stand on end——

Her reaction was not slow either. Before she could draw the knife, she opened her hands and shouted, "Stop everything!!"

... At critical moments, you still need a little super power to save your life, don't you?

The tip of the blood-soaked long knife cut through the air with a swish, and stopped only a few inches away from her throat.

Liu Quan took a closer look and was immediately terrified.

"...Yijun? Did you kill me as the villain of the samurai?"

She hastily withdrew her hand.At almost the same moment, the young man in black on the opposite side opened his eyes slightly, paused, and then slowly withdrew his sword "Ikeda Kijinmaru Kunisho".

He was panting slightly, as if he felt a little exhausted after the hard fight, and his body, which always stood upright, also slightly collapsed.He stared at the woman who suddenly came out of the woods without warning, his breath was a little short of breath.

"How did you come here?!"

His eyes drifted behind her, but he didn't see anyone.In an instant, he seemed to understand something, and his face became even uglier.

"...You came here alone again...to support me?!"

Liu Quan patted the part of his heart that was beating fast because of the running and the shock of being almost stabbed just now, and showed a bright smile at Xiao Yi who was covered in blood.

"Yeah. I think I'm about to become a professional 'one king's support team'~"

This joke didn't make the face of the young man on the opposite side slightly calm down.

"It's very dangerous here." He warned her in an extremely serious tone, "Even if you have that... that kind of magical ability, it is still difficult to control the enemies who climb up from all directions and attack us. After they dispersed us, they also dispersed Come on, plan to surround and strangle us one by one... They still have powerful fire/guns! No matter how amazing your ability is, can you resist bullets?!"

After listening to Wukouxiaoyi's rare and long series of warnings, Liu Quan slightly bent his eyes, and his smile deepened.

"Hey ~ yes." She actually gave an affirmative answer, looking at Xiao Yi's shocked face full of "What the hell are you talking about?!", she seemed to smile even more proudly.

"I said, my ability can hold bullets in mid-air—so, Yi-kun, let's strangle them next, shall we?"
