The final trump card was exposed in advance, and there was a head-on confrontation. Taking advantage of Shimazu Yoshihiro's caution, he took the initiative to break away from the main force and kill him one-on-one.
To be honest, there is no shop like this after passing through this village. It will be difficult to find such good opportunities in the future.
An exam of this difficulty can kill a famous name that will go down in history, and the post-exam evaluation will be complete.
Either take the initiative to give in, act according to the plan, hold on to Shimazu Yoshihiro for a while, let the cavalry charge head-on for a while, and show off on the battlefield.
In doing so, there are two strategic goals that can be achieved:
Consume the vitality of the Satsuma Legion.
It gave the Japanese the illusion that Nanyuan had many soldiers and generals.
The latter can also be achieved after killing Onimazu, and the effect will be better...
Thinking of this, Lu Li had already made a decision.
He gradually reduced the protection surrounding him.
Almost at the same time, Shimazu Yoshihiro noticed that the golden elixir-like thing was condensing at an imperceptible speed.
Obviously, the demon inside can't hold on for long.
For such a strange and powerful monster, maybe after its death, its blood essence can be refined into high-quality elixirs by Buddha's fire.
Used to nourish the body, I think it will be very effective.
Thinking of this, Onishimazu, who was already in his sixties, had a fiery color on his face, and became more and more patient. He held a wakizashi in his hand, quietly crossed his legs and meditated, waiting for the nourishing product to take shape.
But Lu Li didn't know that the old Japanese pirate would have such a weird idea, and it just happened to suit his purpose.
In order to prevent Shimazu Yoshihiro from discovering the clues and lowering his vigilance, Lu Li condensed extremely slowly, showing a state of exhaustion and barely holding on.
After about an hour, it can be shrunk to about the size of a soybean, completely paralyzing Onishimazu.
Millions of miles away.
A seaport.
Determined to make a desperate move, Toyotomi Hideyoshi slowly stepped onto the warship. In the past, when he first conquered the peninsula, he originally intended to go out in person, but later his retainers persuaded him not to do so for various reasons.
Now, Hideyoshi finally embarks on a journey for the inheritance of the Toyotomi family for generations.
According to the historical process, he should have died of illness in Fushimi Castle, which caused the commanders of the major armies who were fighting hard on the front to give up everything and retreat back to their homeland.
Now, history has taken a big turn.
"Yihisa, I'm sorry to bother you."
Hideyoshi held onto the side of the ship and looked to the side.
"Fighting for Lord Taikaku is the honor of the Shimazu family."
A spirited old warrior answered.
Yoshihiro Shimazu, who is known as the Ghost of Satsuma, has an older brother named Yoshihisa.
He had no son, so he married his daughter Kamesuhime to his brother Shimazu Yoshihiro's second son Shimazu Tadashi, and designated Tadashi as his heir.
Prior to this, when Japan had not yet been unified, Yoshihisa served as the head of the Shimazu clan and led troops to fight against the Toyotomi army.
Later, he saw the situation clearly and became the first among the brothers to surrender. The reason was: If a famous family of four hundred years was destroyed by my own hands, wouldn't it be unfilial?
So, when Toyotomi Hideyoshi led his army to Taiheiji Temple in Satsuma Sawauchi County, Shimazu Yoshihisa took the initiative to shave his head and become a monk in the snow window courtyard of his mother's Bodhiji Temple, and brought with him the five ministers who "saw the world" and his daughter as a hostage. Go to Taiping Temple and formally request surrender.
In addition, because he had never met Toyotomi Hideyoshi before, Yoshihisa did not understand his style of dealing with people.
But I heard that when Toyotomi Hideyoshi attacked Bitaka Takamatsu Castle, he committed hara-kiri by the castle lord Shimizu Muneharu in exchange for sparing the lives of the soldiers in the castle.
Therefore, Shimazu Yoshihiro is ready. If necessary, he will commit seppuku at Taiheiji Temple to beg Toyotomi Hideyoshi to pardon the Shimazu family and allow the Shimazu family's incense to continue to be passed down.
However, the notorious His Highness Guan Bai was extremely passionate about him——
During the meeting in the garden, Hideyoshi-sama was sitting in the house. He had just been ordained and his religious name was "Long Bo". He and his entourage knelt down and worshiped on the white sand outside the garden. His face was frightened and he did not dare to look up.
Yijiu was already prepared to accept all kinds of humiliation, but what came to his ears was a warm and yet polite greeting:
"Come! Come here! Come here!"
Without knowing what was going on, he silently stood up and approached Toyotomi Hideyoshi. The whole process seemed extremely cautious, like a woman.
At this time, I had shaved my head, was wearing black silk clothes, holding a string of rosary beads, and was looking at His Highness Guan Bai.
The adult's gaze stayed for a long time, then he suddenly showed his face and asked with a smile: "With nothing around your waist, isn't it lonely?"
In Japan, every samurai wears two swords, one long and one short, on his waist, a katana and a wakizashi.
However, if he chose to become a monk, he would no longer be a warrior, let alone carry a sword. Faced with this smiling inquiry, he could only bow his head and respond:
"yes."
As soon as he finished speaking, hearty laughter resounded throughout the temple.
His Highness Guan Bai stood up, took the initiative to untie the samurai sword from his waist, and handed it over in person:
"The sword's name is Bizen Baohei, and the wakizashi's name is Eagle Nest Munechika. Please hold it carefully."
Bizen Hakuhira was a supreme craftsman who was active at the end of the Heian period. The swords he forged were usually inscribed with the character Hōhira, which is a fitting name for a boy:
Two horizontal lines, east and west.
The Eagle's Nest Munechika was forged by the famous craftsman Sanjo Munechika. Like the famous sword Mikazuki Munechika, he considered it an unsurpassed masterpiece.
And Mikazuki Munechika is known as one of the five swords in the world. As its twin brother, Eagle Nest Munechika will naturally not be inferior.
When the Lord met for the first time, he rewarded his subordinates with his personal belongings, which meant that he had forgotten the past, pardoned the Shimazu family, and would regard the Shimazu family as loyal ministers from now on.
Shimazu Yoshihisa, who no longer had to become a monk, regained his status as a samurai, and obtained two famous swords, remembered that he cried loudly and shouted:
"Thank you, His Highness Guan Bai!"
"I am willing to die for His Highness Guan Bai from now on!"
Now, His Highness Guan Bai has become Lord Taige, with gray hair growing on his temples. He is over sixty years old, but he is still able to fulfill his promise.
When he heard that Hideyoshi was about to personally expedition to the peninsula, he immediately led the Shimazu family's warship docked near Fushimi Castle to serve in order to repay the kindness of pardoning and granting swords.
Aboard a warship across the ocean.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi seemed to have returned to the past, when he was full of momentum to unify Japan and raised his voice:
"Set off!"
Under the sunshine, Shimazu Yoshihisa, who was standing aside, looked at the gradually disappearing coastline, thinking of his past great enlightenment and the death poem he had written in advance:
"In the midst of the world, the tribulations of rice and water are exhausted, and the tribulations are exhausted, and the water is exhausted, and the nirvana is welcomed."
"Drain all the grain and water in the world, exhaust all kalpas to welcome Nirvana."
Such a poignant and beautiful death poem, even the most ferocious enemy will be touched by it.
Looking at the water waves, Yoshihisa imagined that he would die like a cherry blossom in order to be loyal...
However, he never imagined that his stepson, nephew and son-in-law Shimazu Tadashi had taken it out and used it in advance because he was uneducated and could not compose a death poem before he died.
