Chapter 403

Kokomi also doesn't know what's going on with the Shogunate side, to be precise, what's going on with that guy Kujou Sara.

It's as if she's gone crazy, launching wars one after another for no reason.

Don't the people on the Shogunate side eat or sleep?

Or is it...

That the Raiden Shogun instructed to speed up the pace of attack, to fight a lightning war, and to scatter the morale of the Resistance as soon as possible?

If that's the case, Kokomi is really feeling a bit desperate.

The Sangonomiya side, which supports the Resistance, doesn't have many resources to begin with.

The land occupied by the Resistance is also unsuitable for farming, and is even a place where few people live.

The food problem is a problem that can plague the Resistance to death.

Originally, there was the Alcor of Beidou coming to support, but now, it has been almost half a month.

The Alcor hasn't come at all.

The food supply for the Resistance is already somewhat unable to keep up.

Kokomi glanced at the Resistance soldiers around her; they were all sallow and exhausted.

Although they were still bracing themselves to guard against the opposite side, Kokomi knew that they were already at the end of their rope.

Looking at the Shogunate army, although they were also very tired, at least they could eat.

After all, that scum of the Shogunate doesn't hesitate to increase the taxes of Inazuma, scraping the fat and cream of the people, and then leaking some resources from their fingers to supply the front line.

The number of people in the Shogunate army is also quite large.

If this battle continues like this, defeat is inevitable.

"Her Excellency Sangonomiya."

Gorou, with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, walked quickly into the big tent and bowed:

"The Shogunate army is still led by Kujou Sara, and they are already gathering their troops, preparing to attack."

Hearing this, Kokomi's vision went black, and she felt some sorrow.

"General Kujou, does she really want to force the Resistance to death? Aren't the Resistance soldiers also people of Inazuma?"

"We just want to strive for the rights we deserve, to resist the Vision Hunt Decree, why force us like this!"

"Is it wrong to take back one's dreams?"

Kokomi clenched her fists tightly, her sharp nails piercing her palms, and fresh blood slid down.

She really doesn't understand why Kujou Sara suddenly became so crazy.

Gorou looked at Kokomi, gritted his teeth and said:

"Her Excellency Sangonomiya, there is no time for sorrow. Please agree to my proposal; let me lead a team to assassinate Kujou Sara!"

"What's the use of that?"

Kokomi asked back, her voice deep:

"Not to mention that Kujou Sara is powerful and completely impossible to assassinate, even if you assassinated her, isn't there anyone else in the Shogunate army?"

"Doesn't the Shogun have other generals to use?"

"Taking a step back, even if you killed Kujou Sara, how would you retreat?"

Seeing Gorou open his mouth to say something, Kokomi suddenly raised her hand, her tone firm:

"No need to say more! I don't want to hear that 'if I sacrifice myself, at least we can strive for a period of rest' kind of talk."

"I don't want to hear such words again! We are already short of manpower; if you fall, we will only be defeated faster!"

Gorou opened his mouth.

"Her Excellency Sangonomiya, I..."

"Retreat!"

Kokomi stood up, supporting herself with some exhaustion.

"Gorou, gather the troops, prepare to fight the Shogunate army!"

Gorou looked at Kokomi blankly, and for the first time, he saw a trace of fragility on her face.

Immediately, Gorou lowered his head, gritted his teeth and said:

"This subordinate obeys!"

Having said this, Gorou turned around and quickly walked out of the big tent.

The Resistance soldiers outside suddenly became noisy.

Kokomi walked slowly out of the big tent, looking at the dense Shogunate army in the distance, as well as Kujou Sara standing at the very front, and closed her eyes in some collapse.

"Shogun, I don't understand... we just want to take back our dreams and defend our wishes."

"Is... is this also wrong?"

"Does eternity really have to sacrifice everyone's future?"

"Shogun, do you really love your people?"

There was no response to the murmurs, only the thunder in the sky remained.

Kokomi sighed powerlessly, reorganized her morale, and returned to her confident appearance.

No matter what...

As the strategist and commander-in-chief, she cannot show fear.

These countless soldiers are still counting on her.

240. Forcibly suppressing the war in Inazuma with the Sword-Controlling Technique

On a high mountain not far away.

Several figures were quietly lurking here.

They were quietly watching the movements below, and after a moment, one person exclaimed:

"My Lady, war is about to start again! What... what should we do?"

The person called My Lady had a trace of nervousness on her exquisite face.

"Thoma, hasn't the Alcor arrived yet?"

The person here is clearly the eldest lady of the Kamisato Clan, Kamisato Ayaka, and the Kamisato Clan servant, Thoma.

Besides them, there are also Yoimiya and Sayu.

Under these four great combat powers, there are also dozens of ninjas raised by the Kamisato Clan.

A few days ago, Ayaka received a message from Kamisato Ayato and learned of the desperate situation faced by the Resistance.

Kujou Sara suddenly accelerated the pace of attack for some reason, and the Resistance had been forced into a corner.

Ayaka decisively called for people to come and support.

It's just that this kind of battlefield really made her feel a bit dazed.

A great battle of tens of thousands of people, how could she and these few people turn it around?

Ayaka understood that Kamisato Ayato's meaning was to try to rescue Kokomi when things became impossible.

As long as she is there, the Resistance is there.

Just looking at the Resistance and Shogunate soldiers fighting together below, Ayaka still couldn't help but have bloodshot eyes.

The elegant Kamisato eldest lady punched the ground hard.

"Why! Why does General Kujou have to force everyone to death?"

"Aren't the Resistance soldiers also people of Inazuma?"

Thoma said in a low voice:

"My Lady, now is not the time to talk about this; we must prepare."

"There is still no movement from Captain Beidou's side. The Resistance has fought battle after battle, and their equipment can no longer keep up. This time, the Resistance will undoubtedly be defeated."

"We must prepare to rescue Her Excellency Sangonomiya Kokomi."

To be honest, he also has no confidence in rescuing Kokomi.

That is a battlefield of tens of thousands of people; the few of them going in wouldn't even be enough to fill the gaps between their teeth.

Even if there are quite a few Vision-wielding powerhouses here, it's just a drop in the bucket.

No matter how strong a Vision wielder is, before ascending to godhood, they are still human.

Human power has its limits.

Yoimiya leaned over and whispered:

"Later, I will create fireworks on the other side to disrupt the battlefield. When the time comes, it will be up to you all."
