The loud bang of "Boom" sounded again, interrupting Otomo Nagatori's resentful thoughts. He followed the sound and saw the location of the fire again: Shuicheng? The fortress built to protect the Land of the Rising Sun was composed of a moat and a fortress. It used the same construction technology as the wall of Baekje Ungjin Castle. It collapsed so simply... After feeling cold all over, I could only feel fear and uneasiness, and my voice was distorted. Unable to hear his true colors, he said sternly: "Hurry to Ono Castle!"

Ono Castle is a mountain castle built using natural terrain. From there you can see Dazaifu and the beach not far from the water castle. I can't rush to Namba foolishly. I want to see clearly where such a loud noise comes from. Come? The reaction of the king and Minister Toyoura was very strange. They seemed to know something... When they came back from Shuicheng, they said they would rush back to Namba to hold the Gensho Festival. However, it was originally decided that the eldest brother, the prince Katsuragi, would host the surrogate father. Dazaifu's imperial commander personally marched.

Then, there is only one truth: the Tang people are unstoppable!

The people abandoned by the King and Minister Toyoura did not know that they had been abandoned. The sharp voice of Otomo Nagatori recalled their minds and pointed out the target of their escape. The guards took out linen cloth and stuffed the horses' ears. After comforting them, they sped towards Ono Castle not far away.

After the third loud bang of "Boom", those who had not left Dazaifu were completely panicked. Not only the main entrance of the government office had completely collapsed, but also 70% to 80% of the palace walls had collapsed. Not only did the wooden mansion collapse, more than half of it was burned down. , amidst the smoke and dust, some people were sitting on the ground, mostly women. There were more people on the street outside the government office, not only the terrified people, but also Dazaifu's subordinate officials and their entourage. Just when they thought it was just winter thunder, heralding a year of great disaster, they saw two more unknown objects falling from the sky above their heads. The sound of "boom" and "boom" shocked some people and stunned others. The person came to his senses and ran back home frantically, packing up what he could take away and preparing to escape.

As some people fled, more and more people joined the fleeing team. In less than half an hour, the soldiers who retreated from Shuicheng fled back with wounds all over their bodies, panic, low morale and dark expressions. Those who originally wanted to hold on until dawn gave up their illusions... Nearly ten thousand people began to rush to escape from Dazaifu...

... Li Yuanying stood on the central axis of Dazaifu, feeling like he needed to pinch his waist to calm down, "Where are the people? Where have all the people gone? Are the Japanese so timid?"

The streets were empty, not even a chicken, not even a dog... I only fired twelve blasts last night, and a third of them flew towards Ono Castle. I promised to defend the emperor to the death, uh oh. , at this time, the emperor seemed not to be worshiped so enthusiastically.

"My lord, maybe they believe that the gods are angry." Xiao Ruoyuan shook the folding fan in his hand and teased softly. When we were on Ezo Island, the behavior of those hairy people was enough to illustrate the problem. People would attribute things that they couldn't understand to ghosts and gods.

Li Yuanying: "..."

It is said that there are seven gods on a grain of rice, and it is also known as eight million gods. It is recorded in the Kojiki: The troubled boy Suzano was assigned by his father to a place in the ocean where he was granted the title of Poseidon, but he did not obey and later left for Takamagahara. His character was changeable, and he was so noisy that chickens flew, dogs jumped, and monkeys climbed up trees. Amaterasu, whose soul was seriously hurt, was so angry that he hid in Tianyanto (also known as Tianyan Cave). As a result, everything in Takamagahara was dark, and Weiyuan was in China. Everything is dark, the night is long and there is no daylight. The evil gods are like flies in May, swarming up and causing all kinds of disasters. Unable to be disturbed, the eight million gods of Takamagahara gathered at the Tianan River (Galaxy) to discuss countermeasures. The good idea they finally came up with was to hold some kind of colorful singing and dancing party to trick Amaterasu out of Tianyanya. From then on, the Tiantian Nu Dance started the Kagura history of the foot pot chicken.

So, shouldn't they arrange the Tiantian Nu dance? Why did the chickens and dogs just run away and not stay? This is not in line with their tradition of doing things! A certain Chef Fan once said: Just use this to test gb? Which gb can't stand such a test?

"They should run to Ono Castle." Medicine Master Huiri clasped his hands together and said softly.

Suga Anzuo stared blankly at the messy government office: Can someone still live?

Nakatomi Kamako: "..."

If I read a certain item correctly, the King and Minister Toyoura have been here, and they most likely left last night... The key question now is, are they preparing for war in Ono Castle or rushing back to Namba?



No one knows how Tamaki and Soga Ezo discussed it. After returning to Asuka Palace, Tamaki summoned the prince, the eldest brother, and said that he would pass the throne to him. The next day, he held a Zen Ceremony. Go to Tanaka Palace as the Supreme King.

Prince Zhong, the eldest brother, prostrated on the ground and shed sincere tears, and suggested with great dignity that his younger brother, Prince Qing, was more suitable.

After completing the routine of three resignations and three concessions, the eldest brother, Prince Katsuragi, reluctantly agreed to his old father's concession. He officially ascended the throne on the fourth day of the first lunar month, becoming the thirty-fifth king of the Land of the Rising Sun, and followed the habits of the Han people. , the year is designated as Dahua: the stars rotate with each other, the sun and the moon shine, the four eras are governed, and the yin and yang are transformed.

After the abdication ceremony, King Tamokusun Taijo did not make any further stops, nor did he have the idea of ​​watching the new king adjust the positions of his courtiers. He took Toyoura Minister Souga Ezo and other close associates and bodyguards to Tanaka Palace without hesitation.

"Sir, I don't know why I feel very uneasy." King Katsuragi said worriedly after Nanyuan sat down.

Nanyuan was wearing a pale blue round-neck robe and tied his hair with a bamboo crown. He was no different from the Confucian scholars of the Tang Dynasty. He gently stroked his beard and muttered for a while: "Your Majesty, it is very likely that it is related to the Tang Dynasty. I'm afraid Abenemaro Their negotiations are not going well, so you must be prepared for war."

There were only a hundred or so guards who came back with the Supreme King. It was nearly 1,500 miles from Dazaifu to Namba. They rushed back at a speed that would kill a horse... His face suddenly changed, and he suppressed his trembling and said: "Your Majesty, maybe Tang people It's not far away, you must immediately arrange for intermediaries to find out the news, and at the same time arrange soldiers to strengthen the city wall!"

Looking at the map on the table that had just been unfolded by the chamberlain, King Katsuragi instantly understood the unfinished words of Nanyuan's greetings, that is to say, my father did not want to become a king who humiliated the country, and asked me to bear this infamy... mentioned by the Tang Dynasty How harsh are the conditions? He raised his head to greet Nanyuan and said in a deep voice: "Sir, you can't just send intermediaries and spies. I need you to send several disciples to Dazaifu separately. We need to know the real situation..."

After a ten-breath pause, he continued: "We still need to know what the Tang people really think. Ansaku Dalang did not follow him back."

Nanyuan said hello: "..."

Is the king worried about the destruction of the country? The people of the Sui Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty preferred to collect tributes and enjoy the excitement of all nations coming to court. Their thinking was too complicated.
