The Mimura family had just lifted the siege, and there were really nothing good in the city, except for rice balls, miso soup, and a little pickled radish and cabbage, which looked very crude indeed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Lord, Tsurumou City has been besieged by the Kuroda family for many days, and there is a lot of food consumption in the city, so I can only prepare such an unbearable thing, I hope the lord and all the adults will not be surprised." The Mimura family said apologetically to everyone.

"Well, this is already much better than the food of the march, why wonder? Don't take these little things to heart, we are not the ministers who pay attention to them. Mao Li Yuan said with a smile, after confirming that the Mimura family agreed to his fourth son to inherit the Mimura family, Mao Li Motoshi has always been in a good mood, and he is still in the mood to joke with the Mimura family.

"Yes! It's much better than salting rice balls. Yoshikawa Motoharu also said with a smile.

"By the way, Lord Mimura Xiu Liang, the old man asked you, you just said that the Kuroda family has besieged Heshou Castle for a long time, which means that the Kuroda family should not have gone far when the family's army came, so do you know the current movements of the Kuroda family?" Mao Liyuan asked the Mimura family.

"Don't hide it from the lord, the Kuroda family besieged Tsurushou Castle for a long time before, and they also attacked the city, but we waited to defend it to keep the city. In the morning, Tsurushou Castle was still under the siege of the Kuroda family, and at noon today, it is estimated that after the Kuroda family got the news of the arrival of the lord's army, the Kuroda family gave up the siege of Tsurushou Castle and retreated in the direction of Matsuyama Castle. Mimura said respectfully.

"You said that the Kuroda family was still besieging Tsurushou Castle in the morning, and they just withdrew at noon." Mao Liyuan said in surprise.

"Hey! It is true that the Kuroda family only withdrew at noon today, and it should have been heard that the adults were about to bring a large army here, so they retreated first. Mimura replied.

"The Kuroda family's fine work is very powerful!" Mao Liyuan said with a frown.

Mao Li Yuan knows very well that when the army is marching and fighting, the importance of intelligence is self-evident, especially Mao Li Yuan is this old fox, the strategist is stupid is well versed in military affairs, and he knows this truth, now it is obvious that in intelligence, the Kuroda family has an absolute advantage, which makes Mao Li Yuan consciously vigilant, the Kuroda family is really a difficult opponent to deal with! I must not be careless, otherwise the result of the Maori family's appearance this time is really hard to say.

After the Maori family got the news of the Kuroda family's withdrawal, they were afraid that the Kuroda family would have ambushes and other tactics, so they did not immediately pursue it, because the reputation of the Kuroda family for liking to use intrigue and trickery has indeed been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, although the Maori family has an absolute advantage in numbers, but it is really hard to say what the actual combat effectiveness is, and if it really encounters the ambush of the Kuroda family, even the Maori family will not be much better, and the Maori family really can't afford to lose now!

A day later, the Mori family reported that the Kuroda army had abandoned Matsuyama Castle and retreated to Kaya County.

"My lord, the Kuroda family has a total of 7,000 people in the battle this time, and this time they retreated to the east of Matsuyama Castle, obviously because they are afraid of the Maori family! After all, Lord Zuo Matou raised 13,000 troops, which was twice the number of the Kuroda family, and it was natural for the Kuroda family to be afraid of Lord Zuo Matou. Mimura said.

"Father, I think what Mimura-sama said is reasonable, but the number of people in the Kuroda family is indeed insufficient, which is a fatal weakness. At the same time, the red pine and mountain names attacked by the Kuroda family before were just the ancestors of the Meng Yin Ancestors, and they were not enough to worry about. When encountering a real opponent like our Maori family, the Kuroda family began to retreat, hahaha. Yoshikawa Motoharu smiled at Mori Moto, and he seemed to be particularly confident about defeating the Kuroda family this time.

Mao Liyuan thought for a long time and didn't speak, and the old man just sat there, as if he didn't know anything, didn't hear anything, seemed to be thinking, and didn't seem to think about anything. Maori Yuan has not hesitated like this for a long time, and the retainers of the Maori family have not seen Maori Yuan for a long time, and the last time is estimated to be before the Battle of Itsukushima! Maori Yuan's performance also affected the people below, and everyone in the Maori family here began to whisper to each other at this time.

"Father-sama" Yoshikawa Motoharu didn't speak when he saw Mori Moto, so he shouted tentatively.

"Oh! Jiro, do you really think that the Honke should pursue the Kuroda family's army? Mao Liyuan suddenly came back to his senses and asked.

"Father, please don't think about it too much, as long as the family pursues, this time I will definitely be able to repel the Kuroda family in one fell swoop." Once again, Motoharu Yoshikawa suggested pursuing the Kuroda family.

"So that's what you think, but what about you?" Mao Liyuan looked at the people below and asked.

"My lord, I dare to think that this family does not need to pursue, this family has an absolute advantage in the number of troops, this family does not have to be busy chasing the army of the Kuroda family, just advance slowly, you can obtain the land of preparing for China, even if the Kuroda family has any conspiracy and tricks, under the situation that the family has an absolute advantage, the family does not need to worry, just move forward at our own pace, if we are not led by the nose of the Kuroda family, we should not fall into the trap of the Kuroda family!" Gui Yuancheng said at this time.

"I think Yoshikawa-sama's method is better, and the Kuroda family is indeed good at using crooked ways, but the real combat effectiveness is really hard to say! In the past, the Kuroda family fought against weak people, and this family is different from those who sell bids. And it's really difficult for China to use tactics, so please don't hesitate any longer. Kumagai Motonao said that he was the number one militant of the Maori family, and at this time, he wished to start a war with the Kuroda family as soon as possible.

At this time, Mao Liyuan saw Ankokuji Huiqiong sitting on his left, and he was sitting there, drinking the miso soup in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking, just sitting like that, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

"Huiqiong, tell me about it." Mao Liyuan suddenly squinted his eyes and said.

"Oh! The lord, in the next thought, maybe this time the family really doesn't need to worry too much, in the next is to agree with Yoshikawa-sama and Kumagai-sama. Anguosi Huiqiong slowly put down the bowl in her hand, bowed to Mao Liyuan, and said indifferently.

"That's it! Even Hui Qiong said this, so let's not discuss it anymore. In that case, Jiro will lead 3,000 men with you first, and I will arrive with my own army later. Mao Liyuan said loudly. (To be continued.) )
