Chapter 224: Sending so many elite troops, what are you doing?
Just as Gao Xianda was about to escape, he found that the entire venue was surrounded by soldiers from the Sanhao family.』 Tianlai Novel WW『w.

In order to enjoy the people, the Emperor always allowed civilians to visit. Therefore, the venue of the Emperor was very large, and it was not that easy to completely surround it.
Gao Xianda looked at the densely packed soldiers, and probably there were thousands of people. Although Kyoto is considered the sphere of influence of the Sanhao family, there are definitely not so many troops stationed here.
If the Sanhao family mobilized so many people to serve the king in a short time after receiving the call, Gao Xianda would not believe it even if he was beaten to death. So Sanhao Changqing must have summoned soldiers in advance and sent them to the nearby area. Then he must have had any conspiracy.
Gao Xianda felt that the whole situation became more complicated.
He didn't want to be a leader when the situation was not clear, so he did not rush out, but sneaked back and watched the changes.
"Catch all these rebels who want to assassinate the general!" With the command of the general, the elite soldiers rushed towards the swordsman.
Strangely, he was talking about "assassinating the general" rather than "assassinating the emperor". Although these two people are the top rulers in Japan, there are still differences.
The general is equivalent to the "king" of Japan and has actual rule. But he is still alone and can be killed. The long-term political struggle between Daming and the common conspiracy within the general's family often leads to the general's life not long. Those who can die of death are already considered lucky.
Although the Emperor has the word "Emperor" in his name, it has been deified and blurred for a long time. He is more of a symbol than participating in actual political activities. At most, he is just doing performance activities like Yuqian Tianlan and giving some honorary titles such as "Sword Saint". It can only play a role in appeaseing the people and inspiring the hearts of the people.
But because of this, the Emperor is loved by the people and cannot die. Anyone who dares to hurt the Emperor is the enemy of the people and will be despised by all people.
So no Daming dared to attack the Emperor. Of course, what they fought for was the general's position, and there was no need to attack the Emperor. As long as someone who truly possessed real power and wanted any official position, he would give it to the Emperor.
This time, the generals under Sanhao Changqing said: "The thief who assassinated the general" rather than the thief who assassinated the Emperor". This means that they also know that the sacredness of the Emperor is inviolable.
On the other hand, it is not impossible to catch the thief. Could it be that Miyoshi Changqing has been staying in the Kinki area for a long time, and has developed a desire for the general's position?
Of course, to be precise, this generation of generals, Ashikaga Yoshihiro, was also supported by Miyoshi Nagaki. After Ashikaga Yoshihiro came to power, he issued a series of decrees, all of which were very popular with the people. The following Daming also expressed his desire to go to Luo to support the general.
This time, Ashikaga Yoshihiro participated in the Emperor's Imperial Honour. Although Ashikaga Yoshihiro had the title of Swordsman General and was happy to watch the battles between Swordsman, there were many important officials of various famous masters and even the head of the family in this event. He could not say that he would take the opportunity to hook up with a daimyo and wanted to do something with Miyo Changqing on his back.
Miyo Changqing probably felt that there was something wrong with his control over Ashikaga Yoshiki, so he wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of him. At least he had to sound a wake-up call for him.
If not, why did he send so many soldiers here?
These are soldiers with helmets, crowns and armors, and steel weapons, far from being comparable to those farmers who were forcibly recruited by the lord. They have all undergone rigorous training and mastered certain fighting skills, and can be said to be elite troops.
If ten thousand such elite troops fight against 20,000 ordinary troops composed entirely of peasants, they may also achieve a crushing victory.
Sanhao Changqing actually sent thousands of people here this time? Is he trying to kill the general, or is he really capable and want to show off to other famous people?
You know, this is an elite force. If he had such a unit of 20,000 people and was accompanied by ordinary recruits, I am afraid that the Imakawa family would never have thought about joining Luo in this life.
"This old fox may have come for me!" Gao Xianda said intimately.
The more this happens, the more Gao Xianda cannot leave. He must observe the troops of the Sanhao family to know himself and his enemy. If possible, he has to cause some damage to them.
Under the leadership of the leading generals, these soldiers rushed towards the swordsmen. Although their combat abilities were far inferior to those of the swordsmen present, their armor was strong enough, their weapons were powerful, and their number was large, which could form the effect of fighting less. So they rushed over like a group of locusts, trying to annihilate all the resistance forces.
Ito Yidaozhai is a self-preservative. His contributions are secondary, and his important ones are destined. When he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately retreated and stopped attacking Badao. Instead, he focused his attention on these soldiers.
The first ones to suffer were the disciples of these swordsmen. Most of their strength was average, and they accompanied the master to participate in the competition. The main functions were to serve the master, massage and pinch his feet, stand and cheer, shake flags and shout, serve tea and water, etc. Therefore, in the battle to siege Badao, it was completely useless.
So they were all concentrated on the periphery of the stadium. If they were far away from Badao, they were not massacred by Badao's "Blade Storm".
But at this time, these soldiers rushed in from outside. Seeing that they were also dressed as swordsmen and had swords around them, they naturally had to attack them first.
Although these little disciples are not as good as those of Jianhao, they still have no problem trying to deal with soldiers. When they saw that these soldiers were actually playing, these little disciples also picked up weapons to protect their personal safety.
At the beginning, they claimed that they were also disciples of the swordsman. With two tricks, they fought each other. But they were not the opponents of elite soldiers who cooperated with tacitly? So after the initial confrontation, they had no choice but to form a simple formation to ensure that there was no one on the left, right, and rear, so that they dared to face the enemy head-on.
After all, they have been practicing swordsmanship for several years. At least they can be regarded as swordsmen and have strong combat strength. Once they can concentrate on dealing with frontal enemies, their strength will be revealed.
