Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Japanese are crazy, but the results are tragic.

    Emperor Toba was driven out of the city by his grandfather and led a hundred thousand soldiers and horses to fight in the field with Daliang. However, he was easily defeated by the prairie light cavalry and the Jurchen heavy cavalry.

    "Curse the royal family and cut off their descendants."

    Seeing a prairie cavalry charging towards him with murderous intent, Emperor Toba's resentment that had been accumulated for many years burst out. He yelled desperately at Heian Kyo behind him, pushed away the samurai in front, and faced death with an open chest.

    Killing the Emperor of Japan seemed to be more glorious than capturing the Emperor of Japan. The prairie cavalry had no intention of capturing prisoners. The saber suddenly swung by, and Emperor Toba, who had been aggrieved for more than 20 years, was found dead.

    Emperor Shirakawa looked at the soldiers and horses outside being killed from a high place in the city. Only a few soldiers and horses returned to the city. He said to Taira Takaramori on the side: "For the glory of Japan, fight to the death, I will always stand here.  , looking at you."

    Taira Takaramori is the second generation head of the Ise Taira clan, and his father Taira Masamori is the first generation head of the Ise Taira clan and a northern samurai of the Shirakawa Hiroyuki. Therefore, Taira Takaramori's official career is prosperous. He is now the Echizen Kuni-shou and the Shirakawa Hiroyuki.  His confidant, so Emperor Shirakawa asked him to lead the northern warriors to stay in the city to prepare for a street fight with Daliang.

    "yes"

    Although he knew that it would be difficult to repel Da Liang's troops with thousands of warriors in the city, Taira Takaramori did not have the slightest fear.

    Ping'an Jing was built after Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty. No city walls were built. The Suzaku Avenue in the city divides Ping'an Jing into left Jing and right Jing.

    The central y¨¡ng in the north of the city is the palace city where the royal family is located. Outside the palace city is the imperial city used for government offices, and outside the imperial city is the capital city where ordinary officials and civilians live.

    The streets in the city are crisscrossed and intersected symmetrically, making it a beautiful city in the shape of a chessboard.

    Since Ukyo (also called Chang'an City in Little Japan) is located in a swampy low-lying area, it was gradually abandoned and the main development of the city was concentrated in Zuoking (Luoyang City).  The nobles lived in the high and dry areas north of Shijo, while the common people lived in the lower areas to the south.

    Even today, Japanese people often refer to Kyoto (Heian Kyo) as Jingluo, Luoyang, and Luocheng.

    Ping'an Jing can be said to be a complete knockoff, or a knockoff without city walls.

    After the prairie cavalry defeated the soldiers and horses outside the city, they rushed into Ping An Jing without hesitation.

    But the crazy northern warriors quickly gave them a blow. The northern warriors used the terrain in the city to continuously dismount the prairie cavalry, and then killed the prairie cavalry with fierce fighting.

    The prairie cavalry behind saw the people entering in front falling on the street one after another, and had to rein in their horses.

    Chao Yong saw that the Japanese were actually preparing to engage in street fighting. He said to Fujiwara Tad¨­ on the side: "Take your people in and give you an hour. After one hour, I will bombard Heianjing."

    There are already more than 60,000 people under Fujiwara Tadamichi, and the total population of Heian Kyo is only a few hundred thousand. Hearing this, he immediately said: "Yes, we will definitely capture Heian Kyo within an hour."

    Fujiwara Tadamichi did not dare to disappoint Chao Yong, and immediately rushed into the city with the surrendered Japanese samurai and civilians.

    When Emperor Shirakawa saw the Japanese led by Fujiwara Tadamichi rushing in, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He was ready to fight to the death with the Daliang soldiers, but he did not expect that it was the Japanese who were waiting.

    A heroic sacrifice for the country turned into a death due to internal fighting.

    Emperor Shirakawa did not want to see this situation, so he asked Taira Tadamori to take the northern samurai to protect him and kill him at the royal flag of Fujiwara Tadamichi.

    The samurai from the north are much more elite than the samurai gathered by Fujiwara Tadamichi. Although they are smaller in number, they still continue to advance towards Fujiwara Tadamichi and at the same time have people send messages to Fujiwara Tadamichi.

    Fujiwara Tadamichi heard that Emperor Shirakawa wanted to talk to him, and also saw Emperor Shirakawa's flag move over, telling the samurai in front to move away.

    The two of them stood several feet apart with a few close warriors.

    In the past, Fujiwara Tadamichi would kneel down and lick Him when he saw His Holiness Shirakawa, but today, Fujiwara Tadamichi looked at His Holiness Shirakawa arrogantly, wishing that this old immortal could come over and kneel down and lick him.

    Emperor Shirakawa did not accuse Fujiwara Tadamichi of being rude, and said: "You are also a pillar of Japan. Now Japan is facing a national crisis. If you can lead the troops with me to resist the invasion of Liang and repel the Liang army, I will  The government system can be abolished and the Fujiwara family can regain power."

    Fujiwara Tadamichi shook his head and said: "Da Liang has strong soldiers and horses, as well as irresistible artillery. If you continue to resist, you will only destroy the country and destroy your species. The Yue Dynasty and the Koryo Kingdom are examples. I don't want Japan to become the third country that Da Liang has completely wiped out. The era of the imperial family has passed.  I will continue to lead Japan in the future.¡±

    Emperor Shirakawa stared at Fujiwara Chudou: "Don't you think about the Fujiwara family?"

    The northern warriors behind also moved to both sides, revealing what was behind them.Tadashi Fujiwara.

    Seeing his father being held captive, Fujiwara Tadamichi couldn't help but change his expression, but immediately said: "I will let the Fujiwara family stand on a higher ground. I'm sorry, father."

    With that said, he bowed to Fujiwara Faithful, straightened up, turned around and walked back.

    At the same time, he ordered his warriors to go forward and kill him.

    ¡°You bastard, kill Tadashi Fujiwara.¡±

    When Emperor Shirakawa saw the treasonous samurai rushing forward, he stepped back and ordered the samurai from the north to kill Fujiwara Tadashi.

    In fact, he also knew that this method would probably be ineffective, but in order to vent his anger, he still arrested Fujiwara Tadashi.

    Not only the royal family has no family ties, but Japanese aristocrats are also constantly performing dramas of father and son, uncle and nephew fighting against each other. This is the case for the Qinghe Genji and Ise Taira.

    This is also a Japanese tradition.

    The samurai from the north were rare elites. Seeing that the surrender failed, they actually rushed up to attack and kill Fujiwara Tadamichi.

    But Fujiwara Tadamichi was not stupid either. He quickly retreated to the back and let the returning samurai resist the ferocious northern samurai.

    The northern samurai are powerful, but Fujiwara Tadamichi has many soldiers and horses. If three people are replaced by one, Fujiwara Tadamichi can use up all the northern samurai.

    Emperor Shirakawa retreated to the back and watched for a while. He saw that there were fewer and fewer northern samurai under his command. The remaining samurai were about the same level as the samurai gathered by Fujiwara Tadamichi.  After thinking for a while, he led the people to the palace.

    Fujiwara Shoko was already under guard, and no matter how hard she tried, she failed to impress the people who left her under the supervision of Emperor Shirakawa.

    Seeing the Emperor Baihe coming back with murderous intent on his face, he trembled and said, "Father."

    Emperor Shirakawa looked at Fujiwara Shoko, whom he had loved for more than ten years, and said with a smile: "Japan is going to die. Please choose a way to die."

    Hearing this, Fujiwara Shoko couldn't help but fell to the ground in fright. It took him a long time before he blinked and said, "Father, don't kill me. Maybe I have a chance to get close to Prince Daliang or Tadamichi Fujiwara, and I can find an opportunity to kill them."

    Emperor Shirakawa stared at Fujiwara Shoko and said, "If they really like you, will you kill them at the cost of your life?"

    Fujiwara Shoko said resolutely: "They are the enemies of my country, and I will never let them go."

    Emperor Shirakawa also hesitated. He also knew that Shoko Fujiwara probably just wanted to escape death, but if she really wanted to avenge the royal family, this strategy was still manipulative.  After all, Fujiwara Shoko's beauty is rare in Japan.  The worst result is that this person will be ungrateful and fall into the arms of the enemy.

    Emperor Shirakawa thought for a while, walked to Fujiwara Shoko, touched his adopted daughter's smooth face and said: "If you can kill one of them, you will definitely be remembered in history and become a god in Japan."

    Fujiwara Shoko nodded and said, "Don't worry, foster father, I won't let you down."

    Emperor Shirakawa patted his adopted daughter's face and led the others outside.

    Not long after, there were two screams outside.

    Fujiwara Shoko stood up in fear and opened a crack in the door. The two waiters who had just been waiting on the side had fallen into a pool of blood. They had obviously been silenced by Emperor Shirakawa.

    Fujiwara Shoko breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the two people were dead. Now no one except the Emperor Shirakawa knew what she just said, and the Emperor Shirakawa was destined not to survive today.

    Emperor Shirakawa stood in the courtyard, looked at the palace, whispered a few words to the two waiters on the side, and then led the warriors out of the palace.

    Under the heavy bounty offered by Fujiwara Tadayoshi, the Japanese samurai who surrendered one after another drowned the northern samurai in the sea of ????people. Seeing that the remaining miscellaneous samurai were no match for the samurai under Fujiwara Tadayoshi, they either surrendered or escaped.

    After the prairie cavalry withdrew, they surrounded Ping'an Jing. Many people were shot to death by random arrows as soon as they escaped from the city.

    Under the overwhelming power of Emperor Shirakawa, no one dared to flee before the war. When they saw that the situation was not good, there was no way out.

    The Patriarch Shirakawa was like a mad dog looking for someone to fight for. No one of the defecting samurai dared to confront the Patriarch Shirakawa. A group of people surrounded the Patriarch Shirakawa, but no one dared to attack him. Instead, the Patriarch Shirakawa took the opportunity to injure several people.

    When Fujiwara Tadamichi heard that Empress Shirakawa was surrounded, he hurried over. Seeing that no one dared to attack, he didn¡¯t feel anything was wrong with his men.

    Such an important task must be entrusted to him.

    When Emperor Shirakawa saw the people surrounding him suddenly giving way, Fujiwara Tadamichi came out from behind. He stopped killing the rebels and stopped in the middle. He gasped and said to Fujiwara Tadachi: "Do you dare to kill me?  ?¡±

    "Why don't you dare? The seventy-fifth generation of your royal family's rule will end today. From now on, it will be my Fujiwara family's world, and I will be the first generation king of Japan."

      Fujiwara Tadamichi waved behind him, and a samurai came out holding Emperor Sutoku.

    "Let him go."

    As soon as the samurai let go, Emperor Sutoku ran towards Emperor Shirakawa in the encirclement.

    When Emperor Shirakawa saw the emperor who didn¡¯t know whether he was his great-grandson or his son, he couldn¡¯t help but open his arms and wanted to give one last hug to the countless generations of descendants he had loved for several years.

    A hint of cruelty flashed across Fujiwara Tadamichi's face. He saw Emperor Sutoku running past him. With a sudden swing of his katana, Emperor Sutoku's head was missing.

    The head fell to the ground and rolled to the feet of the Emperor Shirakawa.

    Emperor Shirakawa looked at his head on the ground with a joyful expression, howled, and rushed towards Fujiwara Tadashi with a katana in both hands.

    Fujiwara Tadamichi sneered, holding a katana in one hand and went forward.

    The two of them passed by each other, and Emperor Shirakawa fell to the ground.

    Fujiwara Tadamichi turned around and wiped the blood off the sword on Emperor Shirakawa, and looked around at the Bushido: "Japan will have no emperor from now on, only a king." (To be continued.)
