In fact, Fili could understand the mystery of the cruel massacre that Mitsui Ryuki insisted.

For the old shogunate, the current Nagasaki court, and all the rulers who control the country, those radical samurai who are active among the people everywhere and fear that the world will not be in chaos are actually similar to terrorists or cultists.

——When the situation was still stable, these people secretly carried out "heaven punishment" and assassination and other sabotage activities, trying their best to create a terror atmosphere and panic among the people, and shake the foundation of the government's rule. When the situation was finally disrupted, they immediately turned into "rebels" generals, robbed, burned and killed, and used the most cruel and despicable means to achieve the purpose of cracking down on the prestige of the rulers and creating social unrest.

Therefore, rulers from ancient times to the present have learned this lesson that we must never negotiate terms with terrorists

If the backbone of these terrorists can be completely destroyed in Kagoshima Castle at one time, the country will be stable for a long time. The cruel punishment of the rebels' family's death can also make the ambitious people hidden in various places feel a little cowardly, so that the new war will not be easily provoked again, the people can withstand less war disasters, and the country can withstand less disasters.

In a sense, such decisive massacre is actually true kindness for the entire country. For example, it is equivalent to removing a tumor. Although it hurts for a moment, it can prevent the lesions from spreading to the whole body until it is hopelessly in a state of incurable.

However, this understanding is understandable, but seeing that the Giant Bear Legion that he had worked hard to be cut off a large piece of it in the meat grinder in this street battle, and also consumed a large amount of precious ammunition transported from thousands of miles away, Fei Li couldn't help feeling a little distressed...

Fortunately, there were still a group of newly surrendered cannon fodder available, so he asked these guys to go up and take the lead first.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Without further expectations, this Kagoshima offensive and defensive battle was extremely fierce from the beginning.

Although these radical warriors trapped in the lonely city were poorly equipped, lacking guns and cannons, and unorganized and disciplined, and did not even have a recognized leader, they still seemed to have knocked on stimulants and exerted at least 300% of their combat effectiveness under extreme despair.

Therefore, the first wave of siege team sent by Major General Fili Taylor - about a thousand bandits, bandits, homeless men and local wealthy private soldiers who were temporarily recruited on the way, could not even touch the narrow trenches that were temporarily dug out on the outside. They were shot by a rain of arrows and iron cannons, plus countless slingshots, and fled out in a fright. Due to fear of being dealt with by military law, some of them did not even return to their own formation, but fled directly to the surrounding wilderness, and disappeared in a flash.

Seeing that these cannon fodders that don't seem to be very useful, Feiri had to invest in the 10,000 local recruits recruited in Kamakura to conduct practical training.

Because these recruits have weak combat power and poor weapons and equipment, more than half of them even held cold weapons. In order to clear the obstacles for them, in addition to the bombardment of naval guns from the sea, the field artillery positions arranged in the suburbs also fired three base solid bullets and flowering bullets, and even the last little extremely precious white phosphorus incendiary bombs were fired.

The houses in Japan are pieced together with paper and wood, and are packed together, which is most likely to burn. However, dozens of white phosphorus incendiary bombs were thrown into it, and the streets and towns were immediately lit up, and a spectacular sea of ​​fire was formed in an instant. Even if you stand in the upper wind near the sea, you can feel the heat waves coming. From time to time, someone is burned to death, howling and running out from behind the fortifications or houses, wanting to jump into ponds or rivers, but unfortunately they are thrown down halfway and burned into a ball of coke.

Unfortunately, the Giant Bear Legion lacked the experience of siege in Japan. It actually fired all the incendiary bombs first, and then followed by a series of overwhelming solid bombs. So it immediately collapsed a large area of ​​fired buildings, causing the fire to spread further along the sea breeze... Although it did kill and injure a large number of living forces of the defenders, it actually helped the defenders in the city to extinguish the fire.

As a result, after filling the trenches and entering the city with a large scale, the 10,000 troops of the Giant Bear Legion still suffered tenacious resistance from the defenders between the streets and towns. In the window of every house, in the shadow of every narrow alley, behind every pile of broken rubble ruins, cold guns and arrows would appear from time to time, and stone tiles would be thrown out, or a dead swordsman screaming "Heavenly punished" would be slaughtered. It was really hard to guard against.

——Although these radical samurai trapped in Kagoshima Castle, although they fought with different small groups, they did not have unified coordination and command. However, this street fighting model of dispersing guerrillas in the city with a unit of more than a dozen or dozens of people seemed extremely flexible and efficient.

Therefore, between the streets and alleys where there was no force, the soldiers of the Giant Bear Legion who were rigidly integrated into a group according to the Caodian Hedgehog and slowly advanced along the avenue were soon dizzy by this messy sneak attack. They were at a loss for a moment and fell into a passive beating.

However, although these recruits have not been trained for a long time, they have not even experienced actual tests. However, before joining the army, they were "non-human" and "filthy" untouchables. Since they joined the super tree of Western colonists thirty years ago, they have become the dog-legged of foreigners, and have jumped to the top-level stepping stones in the bottom of society where everyone can despise and bully, the conflict between the untouchables and the old warriors in various places has never stopped. Therefore, almost everyone from childhood to big untouchables are experts who are good at street fighting and rural fighting. They are the kind of guys who can cut several streets with a watermelon knife, which is much more capable than ordinary underworlds.

Since they were beaten so fiercely that they didn't care about military discipline, they soon broke into pieces, holding various strange gate weapons from nunchaku to mace to hardwood hammers, and fought with the defenders from street to street.

Because the traditional building materials in this country are mainly wood and paper, houses and walls are easily penetrated by digging and scattered soldiers and raiders can freely run around the city, resulting in no distinction between front and rear as they fight on the entire battlefield... Tens of thousands of fierce and vicious men were crowded in this compact town with a small area, running back and forth in a mess, fighting each other. In the most intense place of the battle, layers of corpses could almost be built into fortifications, and even the rammed earth pavement was stained with blood and purple-black.

Within half a day, two groups of soldiers fought from the street to the house, and from the house to the roof. All of them were used, such as knocking sticks, sprinkling lime and throwing fishing nets, and setting fires and smoke. In addition, a bloody and dirty "mud battle" broke out between the gutters and rivers in the city... Flames were burning everywhere, and shouts of killing were echoing everywhere. All strategies and strategies were nowhere to be implemented in this comprehensive chaos. The fire support of artillery and fleets outside the city was also impossible to find the target for bombardment because of this chaotic and entangled chaotic situation. Only uncovered violence and blood are the key to the decision of the outcome.

As time went by, Kagoshima Castle, with the help of strong sea breeze, gradually burned into a pile of charred rubble by the flames.

The balance of victory also began to gradually tilt towards the attacking side.

——The total number of recruits from the Giant Bear Legion who were involved in the siege was about 10,000. Although the equipment was not very well-equipped, at least they could throw grenades and open the road, and arranged some people to use shotguns to suppress the opponent's counterattack. They could even push the small-caliber eagle cannon directly into the city. Each gun was smashed out and the house could be smashed into a hornet's nest, creating a large piece of tragic flesh and blood paste.

The radical samurai guarding the city town originally had only three or four thousand people, which was only one-third of the attackers. Then they were bombed and burned to death in the shelling and fire, causing the gap in troops to further widen.

Moreover, because they came from the crisis, their carry-on weapons were very simple, and all the people didn't even have a cannon, and the turret in Kagoshima Castle itself had long collapsed and destroyed. Therefore, most people only had a few knives or even bamboo spears on their bodies, and twenty people could not spread a musket, and even if they had guns, they didn't have a few bullets. The most important long-range weapon was a slingshot snatched from local children...

What's even more terrible is that more than 5,000 Kagoshima Town citizens who were forced to dig fortifications before the war took advantage of this chaos. Some of the citizens fled outside the city and were supervised by veterans of the Giant Bear Legion who were on guard, preparing to release, exile or be executed after checking their identities. Another group of people who were robbed of property or their wives and daughters by foreign warriors simply joined the ranks of the Giant Bear Legion on the spot, acting as guides and guidance for these siege soldiers.

Some of the bravest guys even started picking up swords and guns, screaming and directly joined the hand-to-hand combat... With the strong assistance of these native leaders, the pace of the progress of the battle further accelerated.

Therefore, during the fierce battle, the casualties of the defenders were far more severe than those of the attackers.

In the afternoon, Feili invested a decisive new force on the battlefield of the city-city town that had been dragged for a long time - three thousand well-equipped and experienced former Inca Kingdom Imperial Guards. Under the efficient and efficient killing of these plateau warriors like machines, the remaining radical samurai finally collapsed on the entire line and could no longer continue to deal with the city-city town. They had to retreat to the castle of the vassal lords and try to fight to trap beasts.

However, while they were fighting in the melee in the city, a thousand elite marines of the Far East Fleet of the Naseril Empire had landed on a small boat from a beach, inserted directly into the back of the defenders, and cut off the passage between the city and the castle. For the view of military defense, the castle in this country is usually separated by a distance.

Moreover, the castle where the vassal lord lived was usually built on steep hills, while the castle was arranged between the flat ground at the foot of the mountain. If you want to enter the castle from the castle, you must follow a mountain road that was deliberately built to be very twisted and difficult to attack.

Therefore, after barely plucking up Yu Yong and launching several attacks on the unstable Marine Corps, but was defeated by a dense rain of bullets like a firewall, the remaining last 400 radical warriors looked up at the unreachable castle ahead and the large number of enemies slowly coming from behind, looking at each other for a few glances, all of them realizing that they had reached the last moment...

————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Stepping on the rubble, scorched earth, garbage and corpses everywhere, breathing the turbid air full of scorched odor and blood, Major General Feri Taylor and Miss Ryuki Mitsui were riding on the back of a dark and shiny cockroach-shaped military iron golem, surrounded by a large number of elite guards, slowly passing through the dilapidated Kagoshima Castle Town.

However, when they finally arrived at the edge of the city and approached the open space between the castle and the castle, which was the last battlefield, they saw a rather strange scene.

——Hundreds of ragged warriors gathered together in a small depression, although they were very poor in appearance, but they were kneeling seriously. There was also a guy who was like a leader who was shuttled back and forth among the crowd, waving his hands vigorously, shouting some slogans, as if he was giving a speech to his subordinates.

The tens of thousands of giant bear soldiers standing outside did not intend to launch a final attack, but simply surrounded them from afar, silently raised their guns at these people, but none of them fired, as if they were waiting for something.

"…Well? What are they going to do? Could it be that they are preparing to surrender?"

While Feili ordered the messenger to find out what was going on, she turned around and asked Mitsui Ryuki.

"...No, they are preparing to maintain the last dignity of the warrior."

Mitsui Ryuki replied with a sigh, and raised her palm and slashed her belly in a schematic manner, "…in this traditional way."

At this moment, the little leader who delivered the speech seemed to have finished speaking, then knelt down, pulled out his sword, and stabbed directly into his body. A large bunch of blood immediately splattered out, and then he threw himself backwards.

Then, a chaotic and bloody mass suicide began, the scene was tragic and disgusting.

Since many people's swords were damaged or lost in the battle, not enough for everyone to cut off their stomachs separately, several leaders took the knife and chopped down one by one at the rows of knelt warriors. Although several of the warriors who were kneeling on the ground screamed before they died, most of them were still waiting for death in silence, as if they took this collective suicide for granted - the one in the front had been cut to death, while the one in the back was still waiting silently.

Sometimes, because the executioner's skills were not good, the first time he was not cut, the dying warrior rolled on the ground and had to repair several times. Grotting blood flowed out of these corpses, and soon turned this small depression into a pool of blood, reflecting the bright red sunset that was about to fall westward on the edge of the sky, which looked particularly gorgeous and cruel, especially fear and shock.

Faced with such a tragic and cruel scene, even though Feili had been on the battlefield for a long time, she couldn't help but feel a little numb from seeing it.

But looking back at Mitsui Ryuki, I found that the young lady was actually calm and even had a little appreciation.

"...uh...madam, when you encounter such a situation, what should we do?" he asked tentatively.

"...What should I do? Just stand by and watch it. This is the troubled times. This is the character of a warrior. This is the fate of a loser."

Mitsui Ryuki replied naturally, "...In this troubled world, either the enemy has such an end, or the troubled world has ended, and this kind of thing is the last time - these last warriors use death to maintain their dignity and glory, while we live and enjoy all the fruits of victory, and save the trouble of surveillance or pursuit in the future. Isn't this the ideal ending?"

Before Feiri could think of how to interfere with this cold-blooded comment, she heard another exclamation from the soldiers in front of her. When she looked up, she found that a group of vague figures emerged from Kagoshima Castle on the hillside.

——Is this a sneak attack?

The experienced veterans of the army immediately turned around and raised muskets, while the recruits also picked up their own weapons... Then none of them fired and were a little at a loss.

Because, the women and children who ran out of the castle were about two or three hundred people. Some were dressed in rags, some were dressed in bright clothes, but none of them carried any weapons. Several of them were holding unweaned babies in their arms, making slight crying from time to time.

About dozens of steps away from the position of the Neseril Marines, the women stopped and knelt down and hurriedly bowed a few times toward the remnants of the warriors below where they were committing collective suicide.

Then, one of the women holding the child stood up first, combed their hair slightly, and tidied their messy clothes.

Then, the woman suddenly screamed and smashed the baby in her arms hard on a rock. She broke her brain on the spot. She took out a dagger and stabbed her chest suddenly, then she fell softly to the sky and fell down.

It seemed that using this as a signal, another cruel collective suicide began to take place in front of tens of thousands of officers and soldiers. The women threw their children to death with hideous faces, then they either took medicine to take poison, snatched their own swords, or jumped off the cliff, and each went on the road of death in an orderly manner. In a short while, only corpses were left everywhere and the whimpering sound of the sea breeze.

The sunset that was about to set was slanted on this slaughterhouse, causing everything to be covered with a bright red color.

The smoke of gunpowder dissipated and the war was extinguished. With this visually shocking "blood end" effect, the entire inverted war that lasted for more than a year ended on the historical stage.

However, for Major General Ferie Taylor, there is still a little tail to clean up in this mess.

——That night, he had just fallen asleep in the camp and found that he suddenly appeared in a strange place, and there was still the true Lord of His Highness Mistera, who was standing next to him.

Then, before he could figure out what was going on, he was told by the oracle of the goddess himself, which was thundered on the spot.
