Chapter 388 Naval battle, the advantage is mine

There was a "clang" sound.

The short sword fell to the ground, and Xixiang trembled all over, his face turning pale with fear.

"Your Majesty...you..." Saigo Ryo hurriedly spoke, but another cold scolding came from Akihito:

"What? Do you want me to say it again?"

"As a member of Fuso, don't you even have the courage to commit suicide after failure?"

All the ministers looked solemn and silent at this moment. No one dared to come forward to persuade.

In fact, when Emperor Akihito made up his mind to kill Saigo, everyone knew that there was nothing he could do to save his life. After all, His Majesty the Emperor always kept his word.

However, Xixiang Liao, who had a strong desire to survive, was unwilling to accept it. He immediately begged for mercy:

"Your Majesty, the fault is not mine!"

"The general has made it very clear that this defeat is all because of..."

"That's enough! Suicide is the only dignity you have left! If you don't want to commit suicide, then drag him down! Kill him!" Akihito interrupted angrily.

The guards immediately stepped forward.

Xixiang Ryo was shaken by this angry shout. He trembled his lips and looked at his father beside him with pleading eyes.

Saigo Hayabusa's face was stern as he walked out from among the ministers.

But the guards had already picked up Saigo's arm, and Saigo Jun pushed the guards away at this time.

Saigo Ryo, who was out of trouble, looked at his father's actions with a hint of joy in his eyes. He was about to speak, but what he heard next made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

"Your Majesty! Please give me another chance!"

"Let him commit suicide!"

Xixiang stared at his father with horrified eyes, his eyeballs already covered with bloodshot eyes.

"Hmph!" Akihito waved his sleeves, snorted and sat back on the high throne.

Saigo Hayabusa bent down to pick up the short knife, handed the knife into his son's hand, and said coldly:

"Yes! You are my son!"

"You were defeated on the battlefield, but your courage must not be lost!"

"Come on, don't let me down!"

This dagger was not heavy, but Xixiang felt extremely heavy at this moment, and the cold touch gave him goosebumps.

He raised his face and looked straight at his father.

Saigo Hayabusa's face was expressionless, and there was no fluctuation in his eyes.

"hiss--"

After two short breaths, Saigo avoided his father's eyes. He took a deep breath and pulled out the knife from the sheath, but looked at Akihito. At this moment, he became much calmer.

But suddenly, he roared:

"It must be a wrong decision to attack Yan State!"

"The Yan Kingdom's army is extremely powerful now. Given time, he will definitely come to our Fusang!"

"No! They might be on the way already!"

"We are finished!!"

Akihito was so furious that he stood up suddenly and was about to order Xixiang to be dragged down and beheaded, but he saw Xixiang closed his eyes and stabbed the knife in the abdomen!

"what!"

When a high-pitched scream rang out, Xixiang's eyes were red, and he yanked hard, pulling the blade on his abdomen.

There was a "pop" sound.

The abdomen was cut open, the flesh and blood rolled around, and the blood flowed out like a fountain.

"Pattern"

Red blood spilled all over the floor, and the strong smell of blood spread across the venue. Some of the ministers had bitten their lips or half-closed their eyes.

"Not enough! Can't you even do seppuku?!"

"How dare you talk nonsense here!"

Akihito, who was completely angered by Saigo's words, looked like he was going crazy and roared loudly.

Xixiang was trembling all over, his face was bloodless, his hands were already stained red by the blood spurting from his abdomen, but his abdomen was only cut in half!

His hands were also shaking, and the pain in his abdomen became more and more severe.

Xixiang gritted his teeth, looked ferocious, and used all his strength to continue cutting open his abdomen.

"Ahhhh!"

High-pitched screams resounded throughout the hall. Such a bloody scene had never happened before, so no one spoke at this moment.

But the next moment, there was a "bang".

On the side, Saigo Hayabusa couldn't hold on anymore. His eyes were red, and he knelt down and begged:

"Your Majesty! You asked me to be your intermediary! Give me a sword!"

After the words fell, laughter suddenly broke out, not from Akihito, but from Saigo who was committing seppuku.

He grinned like a madman, even though there was a pool of blood underneath him, and his abdominal organs were even exposed.

"Just watch! Just watch!"

"Fuso! I will be destroyed in your hands!!!"

With this last crazy roar and a "bah" sound, Saigo's abdomen was completely cut open!

At this moment, his face was twisted like an evil ghost. He let go of the handle of the knife, grabbed the organs flowing out of his abdomen, and threw them towards Akihito!

There was a "bang" sound.

The organs were not thrown out. The moment they came out of the abdomen, Xixiang's eyes widened and he fell to the ground dead!

Silence, the hall fell into silence for a long time, only the increasingly rich smell of blood continued to penetrate people's noses.

Saigo Hayabusa knelt on the ground, his body stiff and his expression stagnant.

Yamanaka Terajima looked downcast and sighed in his heart.

The ministers said nothing, looking down at the ground.

The long silence was broken by a roar, coming from Akihito's mouth.

"Where is that godman Huang Tianwei?! Where is he?"

"Kill me too!!!"

"It's useless! Kill them all!!!"

After the words fell, Saigo Jun's body moved slightly, and his fingers pinched into the palm of his hand.

Terashima walked out of the mountain and replied in a deep voice:

"Reporting to your Majesty, this person went out for some reason a few days ago and has disappeared."

There was a "bang" sound!

Akihito slapped the table and roared angrily:

"Missing?"

"Where is this? This is Kyoto!!!"

"bang bang bang"

He was so angry that he slapped the table one after another and roared angrily.

"He's a gangster, but he's still missing right under my nose in Kyoto?"

"Ah? How could he be missing? Where are the men he brought with him? They all ran away like that?"

Yamanaka Terajima shook his head and replied in a deep voice:

"There were eighty-six people in total, but he only took six of them away, leaving the rest behind. That's why they didn't notice that he was gone and never came back."

"After all...these are his soldiers who have been with him through life and death. They are his only remaining subordinates."

Akihito's chest heaved violently with anger, and he roared:

"Torture them to find out their whereabouts! Kill those people! Before you kill them, give me the heaviest punishment!"

Yamanaka Terajima shook his head again:

"Your Majesty, they are dead."

Akihito was stunned: "Did you torture him to find out his whereabouts?"

Yamanaka Terajima took a deep breath and then said:

"They committed suicide. It seems that they were already prepared for this from the beginning."

As soon as he finished speaking, Akihito laughed crazily:

"Okay! Hahaha!"

"I asked Xixiang to commit suicide, but he hesitated!"

"This Huang Tianwei can make dozens of his men die for him?! What ability does he have? Huh? Can he make them sacrifice their lives for him like this?"

Yamanaka Terajima said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, if you want us to go to war, we will not hesitate even if we die on the battlefield!"

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers followed suit and expressed their loyalty.

Akihito stared and shouted:

"Well!"

"I'm risking everything on this plan to attack Yan State. You should be like me! Give everything to Fusang!"

"If the Yan Kingdom's army attacks, then help them! Let them die at sea!"

"On Yan Kingdom's territory, that is their main battlefield, and we cannot defeat them."

"But at sea, I, Fuso, have overwhelming combat power! Naval battle! How can they be our opponents?"

"Naval battle! The advantage is mine!"
