Chapter 184: The Ancient Tomb Empire is destroyed!
Soga Showa breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ms. Soga, are you planning to follow us back to the Misty Forbidden Zone?"
Luohou said.
Soga Showa shook his head: "I want to return to the Kofun Empire. Now is the best time to take in the remaining forces of the Kofun Empire."
Seeing that she had her own ideas, Luohou and other Mist Generals didn't say much.
At this time, Luohou seemed to have received some information.
It took a half-moon ancient jade from Emperor Guangren's waist.
There are five words engraved on the half-moon ancient jade - "Eight-foot Jade Magatama".
This item is not only the most precious treasure of the Kofun Empire, but also the imperial seal of the Kofun Empire.
Luohou looked at Soga Showa and said, "Master Shenshu told me to give you this jade and the Kusanagi sword. With them, I believe it will be easier for you to act in the Ancient Burial Mound Empire."
Soga Showa's eyes were touched.
These are two magic weapons.
It turned out that the sacred tree was not stingy at all.
This made her reverence the sacred tree even more.
Afterwards, Jin sent General Soga Showa back to the Kofun Empire.
As for the other monks of the Ancient Tomb Empire, they were all killed by the Mist Generals.
The monks from the Ancient Tomb Empire who left with Emperor Guangren were all his most trusted confidants.
Most of them are royal relatives.
With the death of these people, the royal bloodline of the Ancient Tomb Empire was almost extinct.
Soga Showa's prediction was correct.
The Soga family enjoys extremely high prestige in the Kofun Empire.
When she appeared, many defeated soldiers chose to follow her.
Soga Showa wanted to do more than that.
She found the remnants of the Central Army and came to Soga Akechi.
"Showa? Why didn't you go with His Majesty?"
Soga Akechi was surprised and then extremely anxious.
Soga Showa looked at him and sighed: "Brother, Showa is sorry for you, but for the sake of the family and the Kofun Empire, Showa has no choice."
Soga Akechi was puzzled and asked: "Showa, what are you talking about..."
puff!
The next moment, a sword pierced Soga Akechi's heart.
There was also pain in Soga Showa's eyes.
Because Soga Akechi was indeed a very good brother and had always been very nice to her.
however.
The idea of offering sacrifices to communicate with spirits was proposed by Soga Akechi.
If Soga Akechi had not died, how would the Soga family face the 15 million people who were sacrificed?
The Soga family will inevitably be hated forever by the people of the Kofun Empire and will never be able to turn things around.
Therefore, no matter how painful it was for her, for the sake of the entire Soga family and for those 15 million innocent people, she had to kill Soga Akechi.
Soga Akechi's body trembled violently and he looked at Soga Showa in disbelief.
But after a while, he seemed to understand something.
Instead, a relieved smile appeared on his face.
"Showa, I hope you don't blame me."
Soga Akechi said: "When I proposed the sacrifice, I had received the instruction of His Majesty in advance. Even if I did not propose it, someone else would have proposed it.
And if I refuse, the Soga family will be disliked by His Majesty. Without the protection of my eldest brother, the Soga family cannot bear His Majesty's dislike."
Soga Showa's heart trembled, and then he said: "Second brother, I know, so the escape team led by Tuiko Mitsuhito has been completely wiped out."
"When I saw the Kusanagi sword, I knew that His Majesty had not escaped."
Soga Akechi said: "In fact, I am very relieved. Even if you don't kill me, I don't want to live. Now I can use my life to exchange for your reputation and the survival of the Soga family. It can be said that I have played my greatest value.
This way, I won’t have to feel so guilty even when I die.”
After that, he stepped back and said in the loudest voice: "Soga Showa, you are my sister, but you want to kill me for the sake of the so-called people of the world. You are simply heartless and ungrateful.
I, Suwo Mingzhi, will never forgive you even if I go to hell."
"Commander."
Several figures rushed up from behind.
These people were all die-hard fans of Soga no Akechi. They stared at Soga no Showa with red eyes, wishing they could tear the latter into pieces.
At this moment, Soga Akechi's body suddenly exploded.
boom!
Those confidants of Soga Akechi who rushed up were immediately killed by Soga Akechi's self-explosion.
Soga Showa stood there, his eyes filled with tears.
Soga Akechi's move was undoubtedly to use his last life energy to clear the obstacles for her.
She would naturally not let Soga Akechi down.
Immediately, she held the Yasakani no Magatama in one hand and raised the Kusanagi sword in the other: "The foolish Emperor Koujin and Soga Akechi sacrificed 15 million innocent citizens of the empire for their own selfish interests, bringing the entire empire into extinction.
Today, I, Soga Showa, will kill the tyrant Emperor Kōhito and execute Soga Akechi, just to seek justice for the countless ordinary people of the empire.
If you think that I, Soga Showa, am right, then follow me to quell the unrest in the empire, so as to prevent the empire from being completely destroyed.
If you think I, Soga Showa, am wrong, then I am standing here, and you can come and kill me."
It is obvious that there are many people who are loyal to the tyrant Emperor Guangren.
Many soldiers of the Central Army were filled with murderous intent after hearing this and really wanted to kill Soga Showa.
It’s a pity that these people didn’t have the chance to take action.
Because there were more soldiers supporting Soga no Showa.
In the eyes of most people in the Kofun Empire, Emperor Kōnin and Soga Akechi are the culprits that led to the destruction of the Kofun Empire.
Now that Soga no Showa has killed Emperor Kōnin and Soga no Akechi, he has undoubtedly gained the righteousness of the Kofun Empire.
"I support Miss Soga."
"Ms. Soga sacrificed her own family for the sake of justice. This is quite like the ancient sage."
"God has mercy on us. He sent down Miss Soga to kill the tyrant Emperor Kōnin and the evil thief Akechi. This is truly a blessing for our Kofun Empire."
Countless soldiers cheered.
Those soldiers who wanted to attack and kill Soga no Showa were also killed by other supporters.
Under the siege of various rebel forces, the central army of the Ancient Tomb Empire suffered a major defeat, and its army was reduced from a million to a hundred thousand.
But these 100,000 troops are also a huge force.
At this moment, 10,000 people wanted to kill Soga Showa, but were killed by the other 90,000 people.
This army of 90,000 people became Soga no Showa's army.
Soga Showa led the 90,000-strong army and began to deal with the rebel forces around him.
It was learned that Soga no Showa had killed Emperor Kōnin and Soga no Akechi.
As a result, many rebels stopped besieging the central army, and some even chose to join Soga Showa's army.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The situation in the Ancient Tomb Empire changed drastically.
The ancient Kofun Empire has completely collapsed, and dozens of separatist factions have emerged.
The largest separatist force among them was the Showa Army led by Soga no Showa.
The changes in the Kofun Empire had an unparalleled impact on other countries.
None of the countries expected that the Kofun Empire would actually be destroyed.
This is a powerful country that ranks among the top ten in the world today.
As a result, such a powerful country was destroyed by the Lord of Mist.
Although the Misty Forbidden Zone had destroyed the Nanzhao Kingdom a long time ago.
But in the eyes of other countries in the world, Nanzhao Kingdom was just a small or medium-sized country.
Therefore, no country in the world cared much about it.
This time it was different.
It was the Kofun Empire that was destroyed.
In the eyes of all the countries in the world, the Misty Forbidden Zone truly possesses the power to destroy a country.
All the countries in the world are keeping a close eye on the foggy restricted area.
The leaders of various countries want to know whether the Misty Forbidden Zone will make any major moves next.
If it were them, they would think that if they destroyed the Ancient Tomb Empire and gained great prestige, they would definitely take advantage of the situation to expand.
Because under such circumstances, there would definitely be few countries that would dare to offend the Fog Forbidden Zone.
However, the Fog Forbidden Zone not only did not expand, but became more low-key than before.
