"The old man will let you go today, but you go back and pass a word to the world ghost current politics, you are also a ninja in the territory of the Maori family anyway, don't worry about the revenge of the Urakami family, you must not be employed by the Urakami family in the future, and you are not allowed to do anything hostile to the Kuroda family, otherwise the old man and the Hattori security chief will go to talk to him, and then the world ghost Shizheng will have to be careful of his dog's head. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThat's all I want to say, it's not easy to cultivate after you go back, it's not easy to become a forbearance, you two can do it yourself, that's all I want to say, let's go! Fujibayashi Baofeng said coldly.

"Thank you, my lord, what my lord just said, I will definitely bring it next, let's go." Tsuchiyamaru and the others left after thanking them.

They quickly returned home and released the news that Hattori and Fujibayashi Hoho had defected to the Kuroda family, and from then on, the small ninja forces in Nishikoku and basically did not dare to be employed by the enemies of the Kuroda family. Of course, the ninjas affiliated with the family can only be a different story.

After dealing with these ninjas, the Urakami family became completely deaf and mute, and became a living target for all actions under the surveillance of the Kuroda family, and in terms of intelligence, the Kuroda family, which had a powerful ninja army, won a complete victory.

The Urakami family's army was moving slowly towards Harima Province, and the 1,000 Akashi Kei-pro Reserve Army, who was the vanguard, had just arrived near Kugiya Castle in Waki Prefecture, and was about to enter the territory of Harima Province.

A thousand men marched on the road to Harima Province, and this reserve was mainly composed of the Akashi family and 800 peasant soldiers. As a striker, opening the road in the mountains and building bridges in the water, Akashi Jingqin has done a good job, after all, he is one of the six people that Urakami Zongjing relies on the most.

Akashi Keijin rode on a horse, followed by Akashi Keiyuki, Akashi right near.

"Brother will enter the territory of the Kamitsuki family in Harima Province after walking for half a day, and then you can have a good rest," Akashi Keiyuki said with a smile.

"Yes! It's really been too slow these days, and the Kuroda family is estimated to be ready, if the Kuroda family builds branch cities all over the mountains, then we really have a headache, and the Higashi Harima country family likes this trick the most. And ......" When Keijin Akashi was just about to talk about the crossbow, there was a riot at the front of the army.

"What's going on up front?" Akashi asked, pointing ahead with a horsewhip.

"Go and inquire on your horse," a Hachimoto samurai immediately galloped to the front.

After a while, the flag came back and reported, "My lord, the peasants in front said that a big hole suddenly appeared in the middle of the road, and several people fell into it, all of them died, and now the peasants and soldiers dare not move forward." ”

"What? How could such a thing happen? Akashi Jingqin said in surprise, immediately urged the horse forward, ran out less than fifty meters, and saw that there was indeed a big pit in front, more than ten meters wide, but not deep, there were sharpened bamboos buried under the pit, slowly walked over, and did see seven or eight peasant soldiers in the pit, has been pierced by the sharp bamboo, close to the mouth of the pit, there is a bamboo wearing two people, obviously when the pit suddenly appeared, you pushed me and pulled, fell into it together. There is also one who is not dead, he is still moaning in the pit, his entire right shoulder is pierced, and in this era, the medical conditions are backward, and he cannot survive to save him.

"Give him a good time, the whole army continues to hurry, be careful when you go, this is just a trap, maybe the hunters have nothing to dig it." Keito Akashi said loudly.

In fact, he didn't believe his own words, what kind of trap that hunters had nothing to dig to dig it, this kind of nonsense can only deceive the ignorant peasants and soldiers, and even his own Baomu City people can't deceive, but there is no way, you can't say no! After all, he is a striker, and what he does is cannon fodder, how can he retreat or stagnate! Besides, the dead are all the peasant soldiers in front, so you can just put the people of Baomu Castle in the back to oversee the army.

"Go from both sides, everyone go from both sides, hurry up, speed up, get out of here, there will be no more traps, we will be safe" So Akashi Keijin shouted loudly.

Some of the stupid peasants really believed Akashi Keikin's words, and began to walk on both sides of the road, some of the slightly smarter ones were reluctant to go, but they couldn't go if they didn't go, and the banners and ashigaru of the Hogi Castle took katanas and spears, and followed behind urging, if they really didn't go, they would definitely kill people, so these people were at most muttering a word or two in their hearts, and then they still walked forward honestly.

As a result, after walking not far, another pit appeared, but this time all the peasants were very careful, and only three or five of the first ones died. But the appearance of a trap broke the psychological bottom line of the peasants, didn't it say that it was a trap for hunters? Why do you dig so much? It's not the season to hunt wild boars! And if you are not careful, you will be in danger of losing your life, and the peasant soldiers in front will not leave this time. Even if you die, you can't die in this trap!

"Brother, what should I do? These peasants were afraid of the traps ahead, and they were reluctant to leave, and the overseers did not work. Akashi Keiyuki came back from the front and said to Akashi Keiko.

"No, this is definitely the Kuroda family's means, if you want to delay the speed of our advance, fortunately we are only the forward, if the army encounters this situation, come a few more times, the morale will be lost, and it is really possible to only retreat. No, we can only move forward, we must let these peasants remove all the traps and traps in front of us, even if they die, it has nothing to do with us, and the lord will praise us. Akashi Jingqin's eyes narrowed, and he said in a cold tone.

In his heart, the lives of peasant soldiers are not valuable, and the future of himself and the Akashi family is the most important, so why not exchange the lives of these hundreds of peasant soldiers for his own fame? Moreover, these peasant soldiers are not the people they match, and the death is even less heartbroken, so what does it have to do with all the deaths!

Akashi Keijin drew the katana at his waist and shouted, "All the peasants are scattered, move forward half a meter apart from each other, and if you don't act, kill"

After Akashi Jingqin finished speaking, the peasant soldiers still did not react, the peasant soldiers did not react, it does not mean that they are safe, the samurai of Hoki Castle, the ashigaru will not pity these peasant soldiers, as the warlord, they immediately raised their katana, picked up their spears, and killed the peasant soldiers in front of them without mercy, as if these peasant soldiers were soldiers of the Kuroda family, and more than a dozen peasant soldiers fell to the ground as soon as they looked at each other.

This time it was not a verbal urging, but a naked death threat, and the peasants saw the death of their companions behind them, the corpses on the ground, and the blood dripping from the weapons of the samurai masters, all reminding them that they might really be killed if they didn't move forward this time. In desperation, these peasants and soldiers, who were unclothed and holding hoes and sickles, could only follow what Akashi Keijin said, keep a certain distance from each other, and slowly move forward. If you go forward, you may die, and if you don't go, you will definitely die, and they will still do this multiple-choice question.

"These untouchables, if you don't die, do you think I'm joking?" Akashi Jing put the knife back into the sheath and said contemptuously that he had no feelings about the death of more than a dozen peasant soldiers.

It's just that these peasants and soldiers, who have been frightened by the trap, all stop and go, hoping that they can go behind others instead of walking in front, and in this way, the whole team moves extremely slowly. It didn't go far like this, and another trap was discovered, it was a small trap, and only two peasant soldiers died, and Akashi Keijin was very satisfied. It is still acceptable to exchange two peasant soldiers for a trap. After all, this kind of trap takes a lot of time to make, and it is impossible for the Kuroda family to arrange it on a large scale, and he estimates that there will be no more in front, and even if there are, there are few.

He really guessed correctly, the ninjas of the Kuroda family really only set up these three traps here, and now they were all destroyed by the peasant soldiers under the command of Akashi Kei. The peasants hesitated again, and after the team stepped forward, they all walked forward honestly, but they stopped and stopped all the way, although they were tired, but fortunately they did not encounter traps again.
