April 9, 15th year of astronomy, Daikoji Castle, Tsugaru-gun.

The name Daekoji Castle is derived from the Daekoji Temple, which was founded in 1397 and has been the domain of the Oura family since the Oura family "swept through" the entire Tsugaru gun. The Daguang Temple family, on the other hand, lost their name and seemed to have disappeared from this world.

Today's Daguang Temple Castle is the territory of the Tsugawa family, and after the Oura family surrendered to the Tsugawa family, most of the territory of Tsugaru County was forced to be handed over, leaving only the old domain before and part of the territory of the Anto family and the Nanoka family, but even so, the current territory of the Oura family is several times larger than before.

The scale of Daguang Temple City is not large, mainly in the north of the city there is a Daguang Temple, the area of Daguang Temple is not small, vaguely larger than Daguang Temple City!

At this time, in the apse of Daguang Temple, there was a crowd of people! There were forty or fifty men dressed in different costumes sitting in the hall.

"Ladies and gentlemen! The defense of Dakoji Castle is considered to be the weakest in the neighboring area, there are only more than twenty ashigaru in the city, and according to the Tsugawa family, there are only two squads! And the jodai (garrison) of Dakoji Castle is the drunkard of the Osamu Ozaki family, isn't it true that the heavens are helping us? In the apse of Daguang Temple, a man with a disheveled hair and a hideous face waved the sword in his hand and said loudly.

And as the man's voice landed, there was a sudden echo in the hall!

"Now that a lot of results have been achieved in various places, only we are still cowering here, and I really can't lose this face! Tonight, I'm going to cut off the head of that idiot of the Ozaki family and let him know that the people of the Ozaki family were a waste and are a waste now! The man at the head continued to say loudly, "Tonight, Inusan Saburo and Matsumoto Lang will lead a team of people to loot some villages outside the city of Daguang Temple, and attract the Tsugawa family troops in the city!" Then I'll take the rest of the men to ambush me halfway through! ”

"At that time, we will fight back and forth and wipe out the Ozaki family in one fell swoop! In this way, Daguang Temple Castle will be back in the hands of the family! The man said loudly.

"Wow!"

........

When a crescent moon appeared in the night sky, the castle of Daikoji Temple, which was shrouded in night, lit up with a little fire.

Osamu Ozaki had just fallen asleep in his clothes and was about to enjoy the "nightlife" with a side room in his new place, but was soon interrupted by a rush of footsteps!

"Panic what! Panic what! Is the sky falling? After Osamu Ozaki calmed down the side room with a resentful face, he scolded angrily outside the house!

"My lord! The sky has really fallen, bandits, bandits have appeared outside the city! Outside the room, a samurai leader in a shabby belly roll said with an anxious expression.

After hearing the words of the leading samurai, Ozaki was taken aback, and then desperately got up from the tatami mat, grabbed the sword placed in the corner of the wall and rushed out.

"Bandits? Where are the bandits? How many people! Ozaki said loudly as he looked at the samurai with wide eyes.

Holding back the pungent smell of wine coming from Osamu Ozaki's mouth, the samurai hurriedly replied, "My lord! Outside the city, Xiaoyang Village and Ado Village were robbed by bandits at the same time, and the head of Xiaoyang Village just came to report the matter to Zaixia! ”

"According to the head of the village, there are about ten bandits who attacked the village, and the situation is similar to that of Ado Village!" The samurai continued.

"Bastard!" Osamu Ozaki said angrily, "These damn bandits, I didn't think they would appear here with us, but I didn't expect them to really come!" Immediately mobilize the troops in the city and rush to Xiaozao Village and Addo Village, and repel this group of bandits for me! ”

"Hah!" The samurai immediately commanded.

Osamu Ozaki scolded and returned to the room, asked the side room to serve him and put on the family heirloom armor, and then walked out of the room.

"My Ozaki family can revitalize the family name, it all depends on the appreciation of Tsugawa-sama and Togo-sama, if this district of twenty or so bandits will mess up the Daikoji Castle, then what kind of face do I have to meet Tsugawa Hall and Togo-sama?" Osamu Ozaki clenched the sword in his hand, and his mind was clear!

The Ozaki family was born in the Ozaki family, a wealthy family in Tsugaru Prefecture, but the Ozaki family was destroyed by the Daikoji family more than ten years ago, and the Ozaki family's original base, Ozaki Castle, was also burned down.

In the face of the powerful southern family, the Ozaki family was helpless, and seeing that there was no hope of reviving the family's name, they had to borrow wine all day to drown their sorrows, so the people around him called it the drunkard's family!

Fortunately, the Tsugawa family rose to power and dominated the Mutsu region with absolute power. Yoshisuke Togo, who was appointed by the Tsukawa family as the head of the Mutsu area, had to use some local samurai in the Mutsu area in order to stabilize the situation in the Mutsu area as soon as possible.

A samurai like Osashi Ozaki was a good candidate, so Togo Yoshisuke appointed Osashi Ozaki as the Daikoji Castle Castle.

This is actually a helpless move, after all, the Tsukawa family had no roots in the Mutsu area before, so they could only recruit a group of down-and-out ronins to work for the Tsukawa family. Although the ability of these people may not be very outstanding, the Tsugawa family has revitalized the name of the family, and they will naturally work hard for the Tsugawa family.

In fact, the effect of this was really good, and it only took more than a month for Togo Yoshisuke to take control of the Mutsu region with this strategy. It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and no one thought that there would be such a thing as a large-scale attack by bandits!

A quarter of an hour later, the garrison of two squads of Dakoji Castle was assembled outside the Daikoji Castle Castle, and with the order of Osamu Ozaki, they began to march in the direction of Kozaki Village outside Dakoji Castle.

........

At the same time, Ishikawa Castle, not far from Daikoji Castle.

Ishikawa Castle Lord Togo Yoshisuke was also woken up from his sleep, but unlike what happened in Dakoji Castle, the person who woke up Togo Yoshisuke Togo knew that it was Rukai Castle Lord Yoshiyu Kamai Nagalian.

The Rui family is also a native of Tsugaru County, but their strength is low, and they only have a stone height of about 1,000 koku from a few villages near Rujing Castle.

The Rui family is also a very active member of the Tsukawa family's control of the Mutsu Olympus, and they are also extremely obedient to Togo Yoshisuke, and they are an indispensable help for Togo Yoshisuke to stabilize Tsugaru County.

Looking at the anxious Rui Nagalian in front of him, Togo Yoshiyu said with a puzzled face, "Rui-sama, is there any urgency to wake up so late?" ”

"Lord Dongxiang, there is a piece of news that is both bad news and good news to inform the adults, and the stakes are so high, so I can only come and disturb the adults in person." Rujing Changlian hurriedly spoke.

Togo Yoshiyu was blinded by Rui Nagatori's words, "What good news and bad news?" Rui-sama said slowly. ”

Seeing that Togo Yoshiyudu looked unflustered, Rui Naglian, so he said slowly, "Lord Togo, what happened is this....... 5610
