Chapter 207 Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Last Moments

The temptation of profit is infinitely harmful to anyone.

They were even more crazily attacking and killing every Toyotomi soldier they encountered than Tokugawa Ieyasu's own headquarters. The Eastern Army, which was far superior in numbers, attacked the Western Army, which was mostly sleeping and resting. It seemed that the ending was doomed from the very beginning, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi's careful arrangements seemed to have been wasted because the Western Army failed to respond in time, and did not play a role in restricting the Eastern Army at all.

Just like when Honda Zhongsheng led his troops to the chaotic inner city wall, the side door had already been opened. Honda Zhongsheng led his troops into the inner city without any hindrance, and met a group of greetings. Together with them, they killed the Western Army rebels who were heading towards Toyotomi Hideyoshi's residence. Under their guidance, Honda Tadakatsu progressed very smoothly. Advance to the castle tower where Hideyoshi lives, and encounter many resisting Western troops along the way, all of which are defeated by the brave Tadakatsu Honda.

Honda Tadakatsu is like a sharp spear, stabbing at Toyotomi Hideyoshi's heart fiercely, while the rest of the daimyos are like mad dogs, biting anyone they see, gnawing at the soldiers who left Toyotomi Hideyoshi in Nagoya They all gathered in the inner city where Toyotomi Hideyoshi was located, and many of them knelt down and surrendered directly without courage. These daimyos did not reject the acceptance of some soldiers of the Western Army.

So they transformed into soldiers of the Eastern Army who were viciously chasing and killing the Western Army.

This kind of situation continued to happen. When Toyotomi Hideyoshi reacted, the situation was beyond control. The defense was tight and there were even a lot of artillery. The inner city wall, which was praised by Toyotomi Hideyoshi as the unbreakable city wall, failed to protect him at all. He was directly opened by the traitors, and the Eastern Army entered smoothly, and approached his hiding place at the fastest speed.

Although this is not the first time Mrs. Yodo has experienced these things, she is a woman. She is inevitably afraid and shivering in Toyotomi Hideyoshi's arms, screaming and shouting. When he encountered a very critical situation, the rebel army actually attacked his inner city, and they attacked without making a sound. Could it be that the entire Nagoya was captured?
This made Toyotomi Hideyoshi unable to understand.

Of course, he soon understood. A bloody vassal rushed into Toyotomi Hideyoshi's bedroom, knelt down and shouted, "My lord! It is the Tokugawa clan veteran Honda Tadakatsu who attacked the inner city! The Tokugawa clan Betrayed! They betrayed! And the same signs happened in the entire Nagoya Castle! All the daimyos of the Eastern Kingdom have betrayed!"

Toyotomi Hideyoshi frowned.

"How many troops do we have?"

"Less than 2000 people, most of them were defeated by the rioting rebels, and they fled around, unable to gather at all. Right now, we only have [-] troops to protect the lord! My lord! We must leave here! Please retreat through the back gate as soon as possible! "

Toyotomi Hideyoshi was very sober at this moment, unusually calm.

He shook his head.

"If the rebellion was premeditated, they must know where I will leave Nagoya. Toyotomi Hideji and Maeda Toshiie are very familiar with me! They must know where I will leave. It must be full of ambushes. If you Protecting me to break through, we will be besieged, unable to retreat, and lose our only fortress, we cannot do this!"

The vassal looked at Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and then at the flustered Yodohime. He suddenly felt that there was a sentence that he had to say no matter what, even if he paid his life for it!

"My lord! Whether you want to cut off my head or not! You must know! Your enemies are not His Royal Highness Xiuci and Lord Toshika! Not them! Your enemies are the army of the Ming Dynasty, and the army of Tokugawa Ieyasu! North Korea's troops have been defeated by the Ming army! Everyone is lying to you! They just don't want to be punished by you! Almost everyone has been defeated!
It is precisely because they were all defeated that the Ming army's naval ships were able to cross the sea and attack us!Those bombardments were all launched by naval ships of the Ming army, and it was also the Ming army that attacked Nagoya Castle at the beginning!my lord!wake up!You know it very well!The Korean front army has been defeated, and the battle of entering the Tang Dynasty has been defeated!They even hit us in the face!His Highness Xiuci and Lord Toshika are loyal to you! ! "

The vassals were crying while talking, and knelt down on the ground after speaking, crying and begging Toyotomi Hideyoshi to find himself, recognize the reality, and make a correct judgment. Don't continue to be confused. Now the deadly enemy is Right now, if you don't get out of here as soon as possible, everyone will die.

"What did you say?!"

Toyotomi Hideyoshi raised his eyeballs and hit his retainer on the head with a stick: "We didn't lose! The Xiu family won! They defeated the Ming country! We have already conquered the land of the Ming country! We will conquer soon The entire Ming Kingdom! Conquer the entire world! We just encountered some small and insignificant rebellions! As long as we survive and kill all the rebels, we can conquer the entire world! You are lying! I will Kill you!!!"

Toyotomi Hideyoshi looked like a madman, he seemed to use all the strength in his body to shout loudly, and his whole state became quite dangerous.

"My lord! Even if you kill me! I will say it! I must say it! These things have been spread all over us, and the people in the transport team who came back from Busan and Tsushima are also very clear! They all know! It’s spreading throughout Nagoya! Only you don’t know and you don’t believe it! My lord! Please wake up! Please wake up! Please change back to that wise lord! My lord!!”

Goro yelled mournfully, and hit his head hard on the ground, tears streaming down his face like rain, trying his best to call back Kinoshita Tokichiro, who in his mind is the only one who is wise and powerful throughout the ages.

"No! No! I won't fail! Hideka won't lie to me! Sancheng won't lie to me! Kato Kiyomasa and Konishi Yukio will never lie to me! Absolutely not!!! I didn't fail!!!"

Toyotomi Hideyoshi roared frantically, holding up his cane and hitting Goro's head hard again and again for an unknown amount of time. Exhausted, Toyotomi Hideyoshi no longer had the strength to continue beating, and the cane came out of his hand and fell on the ground. On the ground, his body couldn't support anymore, his brain was dizzy, he staggered a few times, and then fell to the ground. Goro was shocked, and immediately stepped forward to hug Toyotomi Hideyoshi, calling Toyotomi Hideyoshi continuously.

The sound of gunfire outside the house was booming, but the house was unusually quiet. The pale Yodohime forgot to cry, and the panic-stricken Goro also forgot to cry. Their lives and the rich and prosperous Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
