...can only be described as depressed.

I was in a panic, and I probably only used 50% of my 100% strength.

Regardless of whether they are Saito or Komuro, no matter how good they are at fighting, they only have one head, two hands, and two feet. Their strength is not strong enough to even out the huge difference in numbers with their individual strength differences.

.

After a while, under the dense human offensive of the rebel group, Saito was unable to defeat the four-handed Saito with two fists, and Komuro's offensive was gradually blocked.

Under the fierce attack of the rebel group, the original "cone-shaped" formation was gradually compressed into an oval.

Saito and Komuro, who could no longer make breakthroughs on offense, had to switch from offense to defense.

Their defense line... was frighteningly thin. After all, their numbers were at an absolute disadvantage.

Unable to break through this dense "blood-red sea", they had to turn from defense to offense, which made Komuro and his team's already sluggish fighting spirit and morale become even more depressed.

As for the anti-barbarian group...their morale and fighting spirit are waxing and waning.

They launched an attack even more frantically, compressing the already thin defense line of Komuro and others.

Saito, Komuro and the others relied on their superior skills to barely keep their part of the defense from retreating.

But others don’t have Saito, Komuro and the others’ ability to keep the defense from retreating...

One after another, the guards were knocked down and killed because they were outnumbered.

The defense lines in other places retreated, and Saito, Komuro and the others had to retreat with them...

The "oval" defensive formation was squeezed smaller and smaller...

The members of the anti-barbarian group are also getting closer and closer to Anthony, Elodie and others who are guarded by everyone in the center of the "oval".

Anthony and the others could even clearly see the ferocious facial features.

A certain guard's psychological defense seemed to have completely collapsed.

Facing the seemingly endless enemies in front of him, a guard whose lips were trembling slightly lowered the knife that was originally placed in front of him.

"wait for me……"

He wanted to beg for peace from the members of the resistance group in front of him.

He wanted to tell the people in front of him, all wearing blood-red feathers, that he was only ordered to protect Anthony and the others. He was not a Yi. He wanted to ask the people in front of him to give him a way out.

However... he only had time to open his mouth, without even speaking a complete sentence. A member of the anti-barbarian team in front of him quickly hurriedly sent the knife in his hand forward.

The guard who lowered his sword power had no time to defend or dodge.

So...his chest was stabbed right through.

The guard didn't even utter a complete sentence of begging for mercy, and the rest of his unspoken words turned into the sound of vomiting blood.

After vomiting out a large amount of blood, the guard slowly fell to the ground, no longer alive...

Tonight, the anti-barbarian group did not think about taking any prisoners or sparing their lives.

Because their original plan was to kill all these "national scum" who worked for the barbarians!

In order to be able to clearly see the movements of Anthony and others, Yamada, who is in charge of the frontline command, is now standing on a large rock about 20 centimeters high, looking at Komuro's defense line that is being continuously compressed.

Seeing the current battle situation in which their anti-barbarian group had the upper hand, Yamada proudly shouted excitedly in his heart:

Won!

Before the war started, Yamada was still worried about whether there would be any unexpected situations that were difficult to deal with.

For example: the barbarians headed by Anthony could not be found.

Another example: Anthony and the others managed to escape on horseback, but they failed to catch up with them.

But now it seems that none of the unexpected situations that Yamada was worried about before the war has occurred.

The action went so smoothly that Yamada couldn't help but smile with relief.

At this moment, the one who showed a relieved smile was Suehiro.

Suehiro remained on the high slope.

This high slope can be regarded as the "main formation" of their anti-barbarian group's operation tonight.

Under the high slope, there are 20 members of the anti-barbarian team who did not follow Yamada into the camp - these 20 people were specially left here by Suehiro, led by him personally, and are ready to deal with any emergencies.

"Reserve Team".

Suehiro's eyesight has always been good. Standing on this high slope with a good view, Suehiro can barely see the current status of the frontline battlefield with the light of the torches in the camp.

After seeing that Anthony and others had been completely compressed into a ball, and it would probably not take long for their people to tear through the thin defense of Anthony and others, Suehiro also showed a pleasant smile.

Suehiro, who thought the victory was certain, placed the Kazakiri on the snow beside him and put his hands on his hips.

Suehiro could not help but imagine.

Imagine the scene where they successfully removed the heads of Anthony and others and returned home victorious.

Imagine that the name of their anti-barbarian group has successfully spread throughout the country after tonight! From then on, everyone in the country knows that they are a group of loyal people who serve the country and vow to fight for the imperial court and the shogunate to fight against all the barbarians in the country.

People with lofty ideals will drive out all living scum!

The snow...is falling even harder.

The sky is also darker than before.

Just now, there was still a faint moonlight shining through some gaps in the clouds, and it was like light dust scattered on the white snowfield.

But now, the clouds have become thicker, completely blocking the moonlight from the sky.

The night wind that had been blowing from time to time also stopped at some point just now.

The wind stopped and the air became "viscous".

The freely falling snowflakes fell quietly and "lifelessly" under the "viscous" air.

Under the dark night, the perpetrators led by Suehiro and Yamada smiled triumphantly.

Saito, Komuro and others, who were still fighting hard, had solemn expressions and struggled to support themselves.

Some of the guards had almost lost their fighting spirit and looked distracted.

The maid Leroy held Elodie tightly in her arms, although her hands holding Elodie tightly in her arms declared her determination to protect the little master in her arms until the last moment.

, but I have never seen her in such a big battle, and she still couldn't help showing naked fear in her eyebrows.

Anthony, who had tried his best to support Komuro and others with his revolver, struggled to maintain his composure, but there was still a look of despair beating in the depths of his eyes...

Some people are happy, some are contented, some still have a glimmer of hope, and some are about to despair...

Between the sky and the earth, under the falling snowflakes, in this small square inch of land, various expressions are reflected.

Only... one person.

Since the start of this melee, he has been showing an expression that is completely different from everyone around him.

…

…

What on earth is this...?

…

…

Qingden, who was staying in the center of the safest "oval" with Anthony and others, his left and right arms hanging down naturally, the tip of the saber in his right palm hanging down to the snow, looked around with a... blank expression.

it's wired……

Really...so strange...

Since just now, Qingdeng has felt that his mood and his... vision are very strange.

The "radical anti-barbarians", numbering close to 200, stormed into the camp with great force... They should feel scared and at a loss.

But Qingdeng didn't feel any of these emotions.

After seeing a large number of enemies rushing toward them, Qingden felt that he was terrifyingly calm.

He was so calm that even Qingden found it incredible.

On the first night after traveling to this era, Qingdeng would feel panicked when faced with a sneak attack by a handful of three "radical anti-foreigners", and would feel terrified because his life was in danger.

But now, facing an attack by the "radical anti-barbarians" whose number of enemies was a hundred times greater than that he encountered that night, Qingdeng could not afford to panic at all.

Why can I be so calm now?

Qingdeng himself couldn't figure it out.

Compared with the strangeness in his current state of mind, it was the strangeness in his vision that made Qingden feel even more shocked.

I can see... so clearly...

Qingden turned his eyes blankly and looked to his left and right.

The location and movements of Saito, Komuro and others.
To be continued...
