In Tsugawa Castle, after listening to the report of Takahashi Xingjia, Soji Tsugawa angrily threw the tea bowl in his hand to the ground. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"The Shimomura family is too deceitful!" Tsugawa Soji said angrily, "There is also the Hanekawa family, and the Hanekawa Haruhi clan even dares to go against the main family!" Send an order to Tadashi Kawakami and ask him to lead troops to capture Hanekawa Castle for me! ”

"Your Highness, slow down!" Takahashi Koke stopped Soji Tsugawa in his rage.

"Your Highness, it is indeed not appropriate for this family to use troops on a large scale at the moment. His Royal Highness also said that this will have an impact on the next spring ploughing of the family, so in my opinion, the family should endure it for a while. Takahashi said.

"Patience! I can't bear it, I don't need to endure it anymore! Soji Tsugawa gritted his teeth and said loudly, "The family has repeatedly backed down, but the Yuri Party thinks that the family is afraid of them." If you don't give them a little color, they won't know how to stop! ”

"Isn't Mizutani Hisaji's Qingbei already rushing to Shimono Mountain? I ordered the horseback team of Hondo Castle to be dispatched, and I also gathered Ashigaru in Tsugawa Castle and went to Shimono Mountain with me! Soji Tsugawa said loudly.

"Large-scale battles can't be fought, and it's still okay to teach a small lesson to the arrogant people of the Shimomura family." Soji Tsugawa said angrily.

"Yes!"

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

"Your Highness, are you going to fight again?" Inside the Tsukawa Yashiki, Yukihime and Xiaolan looked worriedly at Soji Tsugawa, who was fully dressed, and said.

Tsugawa Soji nodded helplessly, "Yes, the Shimono Yamashita Village family continues to send troops to attack the main family, and Takahashi Xingguo and Komura Yoshikei are not strong enough to resist the attack of the Shimomura family and the Hanegawa family. ”

"So I had to take the troops to Shimonoyama to teach the Shimomura family and the Hanegawa family a lesson!" Soji Tsugawa said.

"Can't you send your retainers there?" Xiaolan pouted and said unhappily, "The concubine is about to give birth, I hope Your Highness can be by my side, otherwise the concubine is very afraid!" ”

"Don't be afraid, I'll be back soon. This time I didn't intend to fight a protracted war with the other side, but just to deter the other side. Soji Tsugawa comforted Xiaolan and said.

Xiaolan sighed and said, "Alas, Your Highness, as the head of the family, understands that she can't help herself and is a concubine. Your Highness doesn't need to worry about the concubine when you fight outside, and when you repel the enemy, your Highness will come back. ”

Xue Ji also said loudly, "Your Highness, please pay attention to safety, Xiaolan and I are waiting for you to come back." ”

"Good!" After Tsugawa Soji finished speaking, he strode out of the house. Leaving Xue Ji and Xiaolan alone to be sad............

Shimono Mountain, Mizutani Hisaharu arrived first with Aobei.

"Takahashi-sama, Omura-sama, what's the situation now?" Hisaharu Mizutani asked.

Takahashi Xingguo replied helplessly, "The enemy has retreated, but the canal has been damaged again, and this time the damage is even more serious, and it will probably take a lot of time to rebuild it." ”

"Humph! The Shimomura family and the Hanegawa family are really hateful! Mizutani Hisaharu Zou frowned and said, "But the lord will arrive soon, so let's give the Shimomura family and the Hanegawa family a little color!" ”

"I can't help it for a long time!" Komura Yoshikage said indignantly on the side, "If it weren't for the lack of troops in the Shimono Mountain area, we wouldn't be so passive!" Now that the lord and Mizutani-sama are here, there is no need to be afraid of the other party's strength! ”

"Wait a minute, I must take the lead and wash away the anger of this time!" Yoshiki Komura said "hungry and thirsty".

"It is said that the lord is also very annoyed, and it seems that this time the lord is also going to vent his anger on the Shimomura family and the Hanegawa family." Hisaharu Mizutani continued, "Since the Shimomura family and the Hanegawa family have the courage to use soldiers against their own family, they must be prepared to meet the wrath of this family!" ”

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

On the afternoon of March 8, the twelfth year of astronomy, although the sun was already hanging in the sky, the little warmth brought by it could not affect the chill on Tsugawa Soji's face in the slightest.

At this time, Soharu Tsugawa had already rushed to Takahashi Castle with Ashigaru and Kimoto from Tsugawa Castle, and the horseback team of Hondo Castle also followed. After all, the cavalry is all cavalry, and the speed is much faster.

In the Takahashi Castle Castle, Tsugawa Soji sat on the main seat, looked left and right, and said loudly, "Everyone, now that the troops have been assembled, it's time to use troops against the Shimomura family." ”

"Takahashi Kokoku, tell me about the situation of the Shimomura family and the Hanekawa family." Soji Tsugawa looked at Takahashi Kokoku and said.

"Hah!"

Takahashi Xingguo said slowly, "At present, the Shimomura family and the Hanekawa family are stationed in the area of Shirasawan Castle of the Shimomura family and Hanekawa Castle of the Hanekawa family. In addition, the Shimomura family has a lot of troops in the Shimomura Museum. ”

"The total strength of the Shimomura family and the Hanegawa family is about 600 people. Among them, the Hanekawa family has about 100 people, and the Shimomura family has about 500 people. Yoshikage Komura added.

"Humph! With only 600 troops, they dare to provoke their own family! Soji Tsugawa snorted coldly and said.

Takahashi Xingjia opened his mouth at this time and said, "What the Shimomura family relies on is only the Yuri Party behind them, as long as we attack quickly and don't give the Shimomura family and other Yuri Party members time to react, and withdraw after the fight, the other party will not be able to help the family!" ”

"That's not enough, this attack must be fast and ruthless!" Soji Tsugawa continued, "We must beat the Shimomura family, otherwise it will be difficult to guarantee that the other party will not attack the family again after the family withdraws." The family doesn't have time to spend time with the Shimomura family here! ”

"So, where should we attack this time?" Soji Tsugawa said.

Takahashi Kokoku hurriedly replied, "The territories of the Shimomura family and the Hanegawa family are bordered by three places: Shirasawan, Nangaisho, and Hanegawa Castle. ”

"Bai Zeyuan is 20 miles west of Takahashi Castle, between two hills, which is good for defense and not conducive to attack. This place is guarded by Shirasawa Naganobu, a major minister of the Shimomura family. Takahashi Kokoku said slowly, "Hanekawa Castle is the residence of the Hanekawa family, and compared to Shirasawa, Hanekawa Castle is closer to the family's Kamimaeda Castle. If you send troops from Shimonoyama, the distance is quite long. ”

"And there is a castle in Nanwaixiang called Nangang, which is 15 miles away from Dongxiang City, which is the barrier to the east of the lower village. The lord of the castle is the half-brother of the head of the Shimomura family, Minamioka Kiyocho. Takahashi Xingguo said slowly.

"Minamioka? What is the situation here? Soji Tsugawa then asked.

Takahashi replied, "There are less than 100 peasants and ashigaru. ”

"Good! Then attack Minamioka! Soji Tsugawa said loudly.

"Hah!"

In a short time, hundreds of troops of the Tsugawa family rushed out of Takahashi Castle. A total of about 450 troops from Tsugawa Soji's banner, horseback team, Tsugawa Castle Standing Ashigaru and Aobi went to Nanoka in a mighty manner.

As for the Ashigaru of Takahashi Castle and Togo Castle, they were ordered by Tsugawa Soji to stay, and Takahashi Kokoku led the defense of the Onodera family in the south. Although the Onodera family has stopped a lot recently, such a moment has to be guarded against.

The experience of Dongshan Temple last time reminded Tsugawa Soji that nothing should be left to chance, especially war, and there is no room for sloppiness.
