I started with the Shinsengumi in Bakumatsu

Chapter 20 Okada Izo is defeated
In the dormitory beside Sanjo Bridge, Takeichi Zuishan and others are hiding here. The news that Tanaka Shinbei is about to be beheaded has spread throughout Kyoto.

After all, the murder of Gongqing's sister, Xiaolu Gongzhi, had a huge impact, so the court naturally wanted to announce with great fanfare that the murderer would be brought to justice soon.

In the dormitory, the usually taciturn Okada Izo said excitedly: "Mr. Takeichi, we must save Mr. Tanaka, otherwise he will be beheaded!"

Takeichi Zuishan is the leader of the Tosa Kinou Party, and he is surrounded by a group of cadres. These cadres actually look down on Okada Izo, who is from Ashigaru and is rude.

Yamazaki Tetsuma scolded: "What are you talking about? Is it that simple to save Mr. Tanaka? Tanaka is now being detained in the Shinsengumi camp. Have you forgotten the last fiasco?"

Okada Izo was a little angry and ashamed, but he still prayed unwillingly: "Mr. Takeichi, please!"

Takeshi Ruishan shook his head and said: "Yizang, it's not that I don't want to save him, but this matter involves too much. If I lead people to rescue Tanaka, I'm afraid the court and the lord will think that I am an accomplice of the assassination of the minister. If this is the case, If the Shinsengumi takes advantage of us, our Tosa Kinou Party will be destroyed."

Okada Izo didn't understand what King Qin was like or what he wanted to do to resist the barbarians. He just wanted to stand out. Furthermore, Takeshi Ruishan took great care of him. He had been killing people for Takeshi Ruishan just to repay his kindness.

But in fact, Takeichi Zuishan just took a fancy to Okada Izo's killing skills.

Therefore, Wu Shi Ruishan will never help because of an executioner.

You must know that after Okada Izo was arrested, Takeichi Zuishan even hoped that Okada Izo would die soon, so that there would be no evidence to prove that he participated in the assassination of the secret official.

Regardless of the Qinwang Party and the Anti-Barbarian faction, they are clamoring fiercely. In fact, many people are just taking this opportunity to gain power.

Okada Izo felt a little disappointed when he heard Takeichi Ruishan's reply.

He didn't say anything more, but silently sat back to his seat to eat.

Takeichi Ruishan shook his head slightly, then looked at Yamazaki Tetsuma and others and said: "This time, Tanaka is suspected of assassinating the minister. There are many doubts. It seems that Tanaka was framed. We have to find this person who is plotting against us behind the scenes... "

Late at night, Takeshi Ruishan and others had already gone to bed. Okada Izo quietly got up, picked up his sword and left the dormitory.

Okada Izo broke into the town street alone and soon found the Shinsengumi camp in Qingshui Lane.

The defense of the Shinsengumi camp is very tight. There are two soldiers guarding the main entrance. There are fires and torches around it. It is as bright as day and the surrounding situation can be seen clearly.

Okada Izo did not alert the Shinsengumi members at the front door. He climbed over the courtyard wall and entered the courtyard from the back door. As soon as Okada Izo entered the backyard, he saw a body that had been sorted. He stepped forward and saw that It's Tanaka Shinbei.

In disbelief, Okada Izo gritted his teeth, his eyes were red, and he clenched his fists, as if he wanted to avenge Tanaka.

"You came."

A word behind him made Okada Izo turn around quickly.

Yagyu walked out of the darkness, looked at Okada Izo, and said, "You are the only one here. Will Takeichi Zuisan abandon Tanaka Shinbei?"

Okada Izo didn't answer. He stood up and rushed directly to Yagyu. Yagyu immediately drew his sword and dealt with it.

Okada Izo rushed forward, still drawing the sword with one hand and slashing at a very fast speed. Most people could only see the light of the sword. Yagyu immediately swung his sword to intercept, blocking the sword and slashing his stomach.

But Okada Izo drew his sword and slashed but it was just a feint. The blade passed through Yagyu Onimaru, and he quickly changed his move and slashed the shoulder against the cassock. Yagyu was so fast that he immediately raised his hand to block it with the Receive Slash.

Okada Izo's middle door was wide open. Yagyu kicked him unceremoniously and hit Okada Izo in the abdomen. Okada Izo felt a huge force and couldn't help but retreat. He was worried that he would fall back and fall, so he could only use Hold on to the knife and stabilize your body.As expected, Yagyu pursued and struck at the reverse cassock with a move. Okada Izo quickly drew his sword with his dark hand and used the handle to hit Yagyu's reverse cassock. Yagyu was repelled by the sword, exposing his middle door and leaning back.

Okada Izo seized the opportunity and slashed horizontally with the knife in his yin hand. When Yagyu retreated, he held the knife in his back and let go with his right hand. He grabbed the handle of the knife with his left hand behind his back. He held the knife in his yin hand and stabbed Okada directly. Hidden in the abdomen.

And Okada Izo's horizontal slash was blocked by Yagyu's right hand, and blood quickly fell on Yagyu's shoulder.

Okada Izo, who was stabbed in the abdomen, paused for a moment, and Yagyu immediately kicked him away. The wound on his right hand was even deeper, but Okada Izo had already fallen to the ground.

Okada Izo lay on the ground and gasped, saying: "What a powerful back-to-back sword. It's really hard to guard against."

Yagyu walked up to Okada Izo. Okada Izo struggled to get up, knelt there, pulled out the wakizashi, and Yagyu immediately beheaded him.

"Kill Okada Izo"

"Get Yagyu Shininryu +20"

"Get Ono Itto Style +20, Meditation Akechi Style +10, Direct Point Style +10"

The fight in the backyard attracted the attention of the Shinsengumi team members. They ran to the backyard and saw that Yagyu had beheaded Okada Izo.

Shannan Keisuke hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Mr. Yagyu, your hand?"

Yagyu looked at the wound and saw that the bones were deep. He shook his head and said, "It's not a serious injury."

After Yamazaki Hao's treatment, the wound on Yagyu's right hand has been bandaged, but these days, surgery cannot be performed.

However, Okada Izo and Tanaka Shinbei were both killed by the Shinsengumi, especially the one with a notorious reputation, which made the shogunate in Osaka and Kyoto change their minds. This made the Shinsengumi famous.

In particular, the Shinsengumi caught the murderer the day after Anekokoji Kōchi was killed, and the Emperor actually praised him.

However, Kyoto's Sidai is much inferior.

Originally, the Shinsengumi's area was only in Higashiyama District, but after this incident, the Shinsengumi was authorized by the court to send troops to patrol the streets outside the palace.

In the lobby of the camp, Yagyu, Kondo Isamu, Hijikata Toshizo and others met with the court officials. As the officials read out the court's decree, everyone in the hall was overjoyed.

Once the court officials left, Shannan Jingsuke was the most excited.

"We have the emperor's approval!"

Hijikata Toshizo said with some arrogance: "I can only say that the director and our Shinsengumi are so capable that even the emperor relies on us!"

Isamu Kondo said excitedly: "You all must work harder in the future. We, the Shinsengumi, are for the sake of the shogunate and the court, and will ultimately respect the emperor and fight against the barbarians!"

Everyone was very excited, but Yagyu remained expressionless. He was just like the faceless man in the Shinsengumi.

Yagyu nodded and said: "Kondo is right. We must work harder in the future. Every move we make will be watched. There must be no mistakes. But you don't have to worry too much. As long as we serve the court and the shogunate wholeheartedly, the emperor General He will definitely support us!"
