One Piece: General Xuanming, Defeat the New World

"Kill!"

"Kill me!"

"Kill one to get your money back, kill two to make a profit, kill a Langlang world for my wife and children!"

Taking advantage of the chaos that had already fallen into the Fujiyama rebels, the thousand-man vanguard from the Flower Capital rushed forward roaring, trampling on the corpses of the enemies, their feet stained with blood, waving their long swords wildly, their eyes full of blood.

This was also a tactic commonly used by the Kozuki Family. Before every battle, they would send three swordsmen to lead a death squad to attack the enemy's position. They would use the swordsmen's joint attack technique to deceive the enemy, making them mistakenly believe that there was a great swordsman to support them, thus causing widespread panic.

Taking advantage of the panic, they could rush into the enemy's position and avoid being intercepted during the charge and thus being meaninglessly annihilated.

They are a veritable suicide squad. They know that as a thousand people, their mission is to die. It is like throwing an egg against a rock. Relying on a thousand people to attack an army of fifty thousand, and there are strong men on the opposite side, they cannot go back alive.

But the purpose of their launching this suicide attack was, firstly, to kill as many enemy soldiers as possible and create fear.

The more important purpose is to test the enemy's trump card. Once the opponent has any unknown trump card, if it is used in a head-on melee, it is likely to cause thousands of casualties.

The role of these one thousand people is to use their flesh and blood to test out this trump card on behalf of more colleagues.

"Kill them all! Kill them all!"

There were even quite a few extremists who carried explosives, jumped into the crowd, ignited the gunpowder, laughed like crazy, and took their enemies to hell.

They no longer have any worries. As the vanguard suicide squad, their loved ones have enough wealth and glory to last them ten lifetimes, and every living soldier is a guarantor of such rewards.

Although this pension was unimaginably high, no one dared to interfere. Kotsuki Sukiyaki's younger brother was beheaded by Kotsuki Sukiyaki for embezzling the pension of two suicide squads. The daimyo personally took the head to apologize to the entire army.

With this precedent, no one dared to touch this money.

The damage caused by such a group of powerful, fearless and worry-free soldiers in the enemy's center was undoubtedly horrific.

In just a quarter of an hour, the left wing of the coalition forces almost completely collapsed, and the wave of rout even affected the central army, resulting in more than two thousand casualties.

But at this time, the elite pirates from the Beasts Pirates had already stabilized the emotions of the army. With a few slashes of swords and a roar, they immediately frightened the deserters and made them stand still, not daring to continue running away.

"How ridiculous! There are only a thousand people. A thousand people! Take out your guns, take out your cannons, and fight back!"

The team leader from the Beasts roared, chopped off the heads of several more deserters, and suppressed the murderous intent in his heart.

He had never seen such a useless army. In the Beasts, even though the corpses of their companions were all around them, no one dared to retreat. They all followed the footsteps of Kaido, the Beasts, and fought hard.

A thousand people can break up the entire team. If Kaido were here, he would probably want to use Thunder Bagua on every person.

"bang bang bang"

“Boom boom boom…”

After they reacted, the situation turned around in an instant, countless bullets poured down, and fierce artillery fire exploded among the group of suicide squads. Less than five minutes after the first shot was fired, the scene had returned to peace.

All that remained was the pungent smell of blood and the shattered bodies on the ground.

……

"You are the heroes of Wano Country! Farewell!"

In the distance, Kitsune Kin'emon's scarlet eyes were filled with tears. He raised his fists and pounded the ground hard. Watching the warriors he had been with day and night die in front of him, the shock was unparalleled.

Even though he already knew that these people were doomed to die, witnessing it all with his own eyes still caused a severe shock to Kitsune Kin'emon's heart.

He wanted to rush forward, fight, tear the enemy's head to pieces, and avenge his brothers, but he knew that he could not die because he had more important tasks to accomplish.

"All troops, retreat!"

Kitsune Kin'emon wiped away his tears with his sleeves, choked with sobs and roared, then led his troops away quietly.

This little gangster from Wano Country used to follow Kozuki Oden because of his admiration for his strength, but at this moment, he seemed to realize something more important.

It is often these brothers in the underworld who, despite eating, drinking, gambling, and even playing with cats and dogs all day long, may lack minor virtues but maintain their major virtues.

The righteousness they talk about and the loyalty they cherish can often be sublimated in war and in the sacrifice of their companions, sublimated into righteousness and the admirable love for their country. (I suddenly thought of some content and was inspired.)

……

In the military camp, Kitsune Kin'emon, with red eyes, reported the situation in detail to Kotsuki Nohara.

Kitsune Kin'emon knew what the key points were, but he reported even the seemingly useless details.

As many as thousands of soldiers participated in this report. Certain details had to be reported as long as one person saw them, regardless of whether they were true or false.

As expected, Kotsuki Nohara looked at the long information column in front of him, listened to Kitsune Kin'emon's description, and quickly summarized the contents one by one.

"The rebels' command was chaotic, and it was suspected that they were simply suppressing the rebels with violence, and their internal management was in a mess."

"Judging from the way they marched, the Supreme Commander is probably not good at large-scale battles. This is the way bandits march."

"It is important that the soldiers have no desire to fight."

"The rebel soldiers lack basic qualities and are unable to effectively resist even when faced with a life-and-death crisis. More than 80% of them are likely to be new recruits."

"Then, there appears to be some brand new weapon that can emit a flash of fire and kill people from a hundred meters away. It is incredibly efficient. There is also a brand new cannon."

"The strong man in charge is unknown, the supreme commander of the rebels is unknown, and this sneak attack did not involve any strong man, it just demonstrated the power of artillery."

……

Every piece of information, even the appearance drawings of pistols and cannons, were recorded by a capable person and drawn for Kotsuki Nohara.

"If that's all, then it won't be difficult to defeat the opponent in this battle, but we don't know who the enemy is, so there might be unexpected dangers."

"Weapons? Shells? These things are easier to deal with."

Kotsuki Nohara sat on the chair, the pencil in his hand spinning unconsciously, pieces of information flashed through his mind and were quickly classified, organized and refined.

At this time, Kotsuki Nohara was trying hard to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of both sides and find a way to win.
