Tennis Shinsengumi's Blood Dance Sakura

Echizen and Xiaojin, who retreated from the Nihonmatsu domain, led the remnant soldiers back to Mucheng Pass. This is the last checkpoint to stop the new government army. If it is broken through, the enemy army will come to the castle.Tezuka came to the front line to take over the command, and replaced Echizen and Xiaojin to rest.Atobe wanted to take care of them, and when he sent someone to call them, he found that they had already fallen asleep.The almost sleepless fighting for several months has caused the two of them to reach the point of serious overdraw both physically and mentally.The two of them slept for a day and a night before waking up.Atobe hosted a banquet for the two of them, the heartless Xiao Jin almost devoured the sea drink, eating a mess, but Echizen didn't have much appetite.

"Ah, I haven't eaten such delicious food for a long time. Echizen, don't you want to eat it? If you don't eat it, I'll eat your portion too!"

"Whatever you want!" Echizen handed over the plate in front of him, turned his head and said to Atobe, "Speak quickly if you have something to say, we will leave after eating." After witnessing the death of so many young lives, Echizen's calm face It's hard to be as calm as before.

"Hey, let's go now. I'll be staying for two days. It's hard to take a rest!" Xiao Jin said.

"Shut up, eat your food, maybe you won't be able to eat it tomorrow." Echizen scolded.

"There is no words, but there is a gift." Atobe said, "But you don't have to worry too much. I have already arranged the people of Hyodi to Mucheng Pass. They will help Tezuka. There should be no problem."

This was not a good gift, and when Echizen stood in the corridor and saw the welcome boys in the yard, he felt his heart was cut again.This is a team composed of teenagers, almost the same as the situation of Nihonmatsu Domain.

"Do you want to repeat the mistakes of Nihonmatsu Clan?" Echizen stared at Atobe fiercely.

"It is precisely because I don't want to repeat the same mistakes that I hand them over to you. Train them into a strong team as soon as possible!"

The name of the team is the White Tiger Team, which is a team formed by petitioning teenagers in the feudal domain.In their words, "It is our honor to be able to sacrifice for His Royal Highness Matsudaira!"

"Unexpectedly, there are idiots like them who want to work for you these days!" Echizen joked.

"My uncle is still attractive, but you haven't noticed it yet."

"Let's save this and tell the minister!"

In the following days, Echizen and Xiaojin devoted themselves to the training of this team, from swordsmanship to shooting, from traditional fighting skills to Western-style formations.I don't really hope that they can count as ten, create miracles, and stop the attack of the new government army, but I want to fulfill their wish, let them become a qualified warrior, and complete the last mission of life!

The lack of troops has become the biggest hidden danger of the Aizu domain. The new government troops have increased their troops here again and again, putting pressure on Mucheng Pass. Know that he is challenging the limit, and the limit will be broken one day.Finally, in the middle of the night, news came that Mucheng Pass had been breached.Tezuka and Ice Emperor retreated to Wakamatsu Castle, and the new government army also approached the city.

The Atobu held another meeting the next day, and all the vassals and generals attended. This is the moment to decide the fate of the Aizu Domain. Whether to make the final resistance with the determination to die, or to admit defeat and raise the flag to surrender here. In one fell swoop.Lai Mu, the old Xixiang of the Aijin feudal family who fought in the Shirakawakou War, also retreated. Knowing the strength of the enemy, he carefully analyzed the battle situation and finally proposed a countermeasure for reconciliation.

Atobe listened carefully to his speech amidst many objections, nodded and said, "I understand."

"If there is a reconciliation, isn't that asking His Royal Highness Songping to go to die? I firmly oppose it!" Everyone in the Bing Emperor and many vassals all reported this view.

"Yes, yes! If we want to surrender, what's the point of our fighting until this point, and what's the point of sacrificing so many lives!"

"You can't surrender, you can't surrender!"

……

"Now is not the time to cherish my life." Atobe interrupted everyone's condemnation of Saigo, "It doesn't matter if everyone thinks it is necessary to sacrifice me. Hijikata, what do you think?"

"I have no objection, you decide! I'm sorry, I'm leaving first." Tezuka stood up with a pale face, did he have hallucinations after being severely exhausted?He actually smelled the smell of blood floating in the air, and his bloodthirsty desire was also aroused in due course.

"Tezuka..." Atobe looked at Tezuka's back and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Saigo's speech.

"I don't want His Royal Highness Matsudaira to die. That's why we are going to war, isn't it? How could I go back to the old way after shedding so much blood?"

"then you?"

"I want to say that our previous blood was not in vain. Although we have been losing battles, I think the new government army should have seen our courage and determination. It is not easy for them to take down the Aizu Domain. We The fight against them just proved this, so we are qualified to negotiate terms with them."

"That's a beautiful surrender, what's the difference!"

"Ah...Sorry! Blood!" Tezuka seemed to have collided with someone in the corridor, but there was a different kind of anxiety in his voice, and Atobe was the first to stand up and open the door.

Tezuka gripped the railing in the corridor nervously, his breathing was a little disordered, and he barely suppressed his urge to suck blood, but the body of the servant who was knocked down by him in front of him was covered in blood.

"What's the matter?" Xixiang already recognized this person as his retainer.

"It's not good, my lord, Madam led a whole family and committed suicide." The servant knelt down and wept softly.

"What did you say?"

"Madam said that she didn't want to be a burden in the defense of the city, so she committed suicide with her family members who had no fighting power!"

"all……"

"All... 21 bites."

Xixiang suddenly aged ten years, he walked out a few steps quickly, but stopped, his shoulders were trembling, "His Royal Highness, let's go to war!"

"Echizen, take Tezuka to rest, and I'll come to see it." Atobe said to the next cadre, quickly follow Saigo.

"I'm back..." Tezuka raised his head from the darkness, and he knew from the sound of footsteps that Atobe had returned.There was no answer, Atobe's unusually heavy body approached, and he stood silently in front of Tezuka, the only sound of water dripping in the silent room.

"What's wrong with Atobe? You're crying..."

Atobe suddenly took a step forward and hugged Tezuka with his trembling body. The violent shaking of his body showed what kind of pain he was going through, and the silent crying was heartbreaking.Tears kept falling, burning Tezuka's skin.

Unable to imagine such a tragic situation, Tezuka used his teeth to bite the skin on the neck of Ajibu, and the blood mixed with the bitterness of tears flowed into the mouth. Only in this way can he empathize with the pain and sorrow that he cannot express in words.The blood-spattered courtyard, the shocking red on the doors and windows, the decapitated corpses of children, and the quiet smiles on women's faces, these vivid memories flashed in Tezuka's mind like lightning. As he moved, the tearing pain passed from his blood and spread throughout his body!

"It's not your fault...Atobe...not..."

The cold lips suddenly blocked the powerless comfort, and the tightly hugging hands seemed to want to gain strength from his body.Sensing the abnormal excitement of the other party, Tezuka did not refuse, and responded gently to his request.Atobe, let me warm your chest if you need it!The moment we drank your blood, we began to fuse with each other.After tearing Atobe's clothes, Tezuka bit the second and third wounds on his chest, not only blood flowed out from the wounds, but also unbearable pain.Let Atobe become one with me, pain, sadness, happiness, everything, we bear together.Use your blood to nourish my life, use my life to ignite your soul, in this space full of death, we live in each other's world like this.

The blood snaked on the skin, dyeing the bodies of the two people with the same color.The trembling skin overcomes fear in the caress, and slowly restores the vitality of life.The smell of each other was gradually infiltrated in the heavy breathing, and at the moment when he felt the possession of each other, Atobe finally cried out, "Tezuka..." Then the tears submerged both of them like a sea breaking a bank.

"There is nothing to be afraid of, Atobe, I will always be by your side..." Tezuka lifted his long drooping hair, kissed the tears on his face, and then moved to those trembling lips, cold lips Gradually there is a temperature.

"I'm not afraid, Tezuka, I'm just ashamed..." Atobe covered his face in shame, pressed his chin on Tezuka's shoulder, and murmured, "When those of us who claim to be walking in the Shura field When the people who lived in the past were still thinking about the outcome, the women and children behind us made decisions that were far more decisive and courageous than ours. What kind of righteousness made them give up their lives without hesitation! I dare not imagine, it seems that just to fulfill the so-called ideals of us foolish men, they calmly smiled and walked on the road of death..."

"Shame... indeed!" Tezuka sighed, maybe they are not qualified to talk about ideals.War is really cruel and fascinating. In the face of the most real fear, it reflects the cruelty and ugliness of human nature, and at the same time reflects the brilliance of human nature!

"Tezuka, this is the last time I cry... I promise you... I'm such a shame!"

"What does it matter? This is the real you."

"Yeah, so this is me!" Atobe said.
