"Hurry, hurry up!" On the road leading from Tsugawa Castle to Higashiyamaji Temple, Ichiro Yamamoto anxiously commanded Ashigaru to start running wildly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"My lord is in danger now, everyone run fast for me!"

"Hah!"

.............

Kakuyama Castle, since Saigo Kicho was resealed, there has been no castle generation, and it is not far from Tsugawa Castle, so it is rare for Tsugawa Soji to set up a castle generation to manage the city. At present, there is only one squadron of 50 people in Kakuyama Castle who is training.

As the news spread that Tsugawa Soji was preparing for the five-color preparation, the standing ashigaru in the Tsugawa family collar all worked hard to participate in the training, in order to be able to add the five-color preparation in the future assessment, you must know that even the ordinary ashigaru Yulu in the five-color preparation has as many as 15 stones.

"Assemble! Urgent gathering! Saigo Kizo shouted as he came to the place where the ashigaru were training.

Hearing this, Ashigaru who was training hurriedly stopped training and gathered, and at this time, a samurai wearing samurai gear came out of the crowd and came to Saigo Kizo's side. This samurai, Kinoshita Yoshiharu, is a junior samurai who has only recently been promoted from Ashigaru to Ashigaru Shogun, and is currently in charge of Ashigaru's daily training at Kakuyama Castle.

"I've seen Saigo-sama, but I don't know why Saigo-sama stopped the training center?"

"Kinoshita-sama, quick, Higashiyamaji..... The lord is in distress in Dongshan Temple, hurry up and lead people to rescue the lord! Saigo Kizo said breathlessly.

"What?" Kinoshita Yoshiji said loudly, "The lord is in danger? ”

"Quick! Everyone gathers, and the goal is Dongshan Temple moving forward at full speed! ”

"Hah!"

Iwatani Castle, which is closest to Tsugawa Castle, was previously the Chiyuki of Kuroda Iekane, and there were originally 30 ashigaru guards in Iwatani Castle, but now in the autumn harvest season, the peasants and soldiers have also been sent home to harvest grain, so there are only seven or eight ashigaru in the huge Iwatani Castle who are responsible for defense. When Kojuro Matsui arrived at Iwatani Castle, he happened to meet Masashige Tozawa, who was escorting back wood from Odaka Castle.

"It's Tozawa-sama up front?" Kojuro Matsui asked in surprise.

"Exactly down there." Masashige Tozawa was taken aback by the sudden appearance of Kojuro Matsui, but seeing that there was a bellflower pattern of the Tsugawa family behind him, he hurriedly asked, "Why do you dare to ask adults who are in such a hurry?" ”

"I've seen Lord Tozawa.,Down is the Lord's side of Hiroshi Matsui Kojuro.。 The lord is now under attack at Higashiyama Temple, so please hurry to Higashiyama Temple with Lord Tozawa! Matsui Kojuro said anxiously.

"What?" Tozawa said in shock: "The lord was attacked? Who did it? ”

"I don't know yet, but the enemy is numerous, and reinforcements from Tsugawa Castle have already set out, but now in the autumn harvest season, there are only two squadrons of Ashigaru in the castle. Saigo-sama has also rushed to Kakuyama Castle to send reinforcements, and it is also a blessing for the family to be able to meet Tozawa-sama here, and I hope that Tozawa-sama will quickly go to Higashiyama-ji Temple to rescue the lord. Kojuro Matsui said excitedly.

Tozawa Masashi suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go now." ”

Randomly said to the ashigaru behind him, "Put down the wood, you can ride a horse, now ride a horse with me to Dongshan Temple to rescue the lord." ”

"Hah!"

Not long after, a cavalry team of more than 20 people separated from the team behind Tozawa Masashi's body. Although they are all horses, and they are not real cavalry, they are always faster if they are supported on horseback.

"Kojuro Matsui, can you keep running?" Masashige Tozawa turned his head to Kojuro Matsui and said.

"Hah!"

"Alright, you can leave for Nagano Castle and Hondo Castle now, where there are Ashigaru of Nagano Masaba-sama and the horseback team of the main family, and it will be easy to do with these troops." Masashige Tozawa continued.

"Hah!"

The closest castle to the Tsugawa family's domain was Omori and Yokote Castle, which were located in the northernmost part of the Onodera family, and at this time, 500 Ashigaru members of the Onodera family were getting ready to go.

Onodera Uemichi sat in the castle tower in high spirits, and Onodera Quando next to him was reporting on the situation.

"Brother, Maeda Seishige and they have already done it!" Onodera said to Onodera Uemichi with a smile.

"Is this true?" Onodera Uemichi said as he stood up abruptly.

Onodera Quando hurriedly replied affirmatively, "Ha! The news was sent back by Maeda Narishige, and there will be no mistake. And the detective of the family in the Tsugawa family also came with the news.,Tsugawa Castle is on fire.,It's the major cities around Tsugawa Castle that are also urgently mobilizing their troops.,I think the current situation of Tsugawa Soji is not optimistic.。 ”

"Haha, good!" Onodera Uemichi laughed and said, "The whole army was ordered to attack and go straight to the eastern township of Shimono Mountain." ”

"Hah!"

"But brother, if you only attack one place, will the other cities of the Tsugawa family send troops to support? And then the time for our strategy will be slowed down, and it won't be good if the Spoo family takes advantage of the situation to capture most of the area. Onodera said worriedly.

"Hmm," Onodera Uemichi nodded, "Then pass the order to Yokote Mitsumori and Owada Mitsumi, and let them lead troops to attack Rokugo Castle." Haven't these two been ambiguous with the Tsugawa family? Today, I will let the two of them and the Tsugawa family completely tear their faces. In this way, it can also contain the strength of the rest of the Tsugawa family. ”

"Hah!"

"Attack! Go to Mt. Shimono! ”

"Wow!"

.............

"Brother, there is an order from the Onodera family to send troops to Rokugo City." Owada Mitsumi said slowly to the silent Yokote Mitsumori beside him. Although Owada Mitsumi is now the governor of the Owada family, Owada Mitsumi respects his brother Yokote Mitsumori in his heart, so he will consult Yokote Mitsumori no matter what happens.

"Huh." Yokote Mitsumori said self-deprecatingly, "The Onodera family is still not worried about us, let us send troops, first, we can contain part of the Tsugawa family's troops, so that they can safely attack Shimonoyama, and second, we can make friends with the Tsugawa family, so that we have no other way but to sincerely join his Onodera family." ”

"Having said that, but now that we are subordinate to the Onodera family after all, since the main family has an order, we also have to send troops, but in this way, our relationship with the Tsugawa Soji Hall has deteriorated." Onodera said in amazement.

"Now I like the Tsugawa Soji Hall to understand the hardships of my family." Yokote Mitsumori said helplessly, "As a person in troubled times, sometimes I know that I can't do anything, but because of the situation, I have to do it." (To be continued.) )
