"Is there a problem with the supply?" Yoshihiro Shimazu said thoughtfully. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Hey! The Kuroda family's army was dispatched, and even if the Kuroda family's navy had many warships, it would be difficult to transport too many supplies after carrying such a large number of troops. The reason why the Kuroda family chose to land in the inner city and immediately besiege the city at the same time is probably because the Kuroda family does not have much food and grass, so they can fight quickly compared to the main family. Ijiin Tadato said.

"I see."

Everyone suddenly realized, and finally understood the meaning of Ijiin Tadato. This Ijiin Tadato is the head of the Shimazu family, and he is indeed a resourceful man, and he has won the trust of the Shimazu family since the Shimazu Takahisa period. At this time, he pointed out the weakness of the Kuroda family in this battle, and he really still has some ability.

It is true that the Kuroda family only carried ten days of grain and grass with them on this trip, but what Ijiin Tadato didn't know was that the Kuroda family's army was transported by the Tosa Province Navy after expanding to a thousand people and a hundred ships, and there was also a group of supplies transported by fifty Daifuku ships, which would arrive two days later.

"I already know what Ijiin-sama means, but even so, it will be difficult for us to support more than ten days!" Tadasuke Kayama asked at this time.

"This is indeed more troublesome, at this time we only have 500 people in the city, if we mobilize the people in the city, we should be able to get about 400 people." Ijiin Tadato said.

"Now the situation is peculiar, and all men in the city, up to sixty-five years old, down to thirteen years old, as long as they are not men who cannot stand up, are all armed, and they must be fast. All the families of the important ministers were transferred to Honmaru in case Ninomaru was attacked. Also, go and inform Toshin-sama that everyone in his dojo must also participate in the defense of the city. Yoshihiro Shimazu said.

"Lord Toshin! What a great idea! Ijiin Tadato nodded and said.

Toshin-sama here refers to Toshin no Jo, who is a retainer of the Shimazu family, a swordsman of the Shimazu family, and a celebrity of the body house, who opened a dojo in the Shimazu family and taught samurai and young martial arts.

More than ten minutes later, someone reported that except for a few outer disciples who were unwilling to leave, Dongxin Zhicheng had already taken everyone in his dojo out of the inner city.

"The so-called people have their own aspirations, in this case, let's defend ourselves against the Kuroda family!" Yoshihiro Shimazu said.

In fact, Shimazu Yoshihiro didn't know that there was a reason for Higashi-Shin-nojo's departure. He originally wanted to live and die with the Shimazu family, after all, the Shimazu family has always been very good to him, although it is a purpose, but Dongxin Zhicheng is still very grateful.

It's just that a day ago, five people came to the dojo of Toshin no Jo, which is located in the city.

Among the five people, one old and two young, were dressed as ordinary samurai, and the other two seemed to be retinues, because many of these samurai came to the inner city every day, so they could enter the city relatively easily.

They were all young men, the first one was a young samurai in his twenties, the other was a middle-aged man, and the other three were just twenty years old, and the other two were only in their teens.

They just inquired about the location of Dongxin Dojo, and the people who eat melons have always been very enthusiastic.

It was a dojo that occupied a large area, and Higashishin no Jo had trained a lot of samurai for the Shimazu family, so he still had some power in the castle. If you just want a piece of land, the Shimazu family can still be satisfied.

The gate of the dojo is built in a quaint and imposing manner, and if you talk about the width, it is at least as wide as eight tatami mats. At a glance, you can see that there is a good wood of the year, and it seems that in order to train middle and lower class samurai, the Shimazu family is still willing to bleed, even if they are not financially rich.

When they came to the front of the gym, the old man and the young man who were the first to knock on the door did not go up, but the shy young samurai who came with them went up.

"Is anyone in there, please?" He knocked on the door twice and said!

Soon a young man came and opened the door for him.

"We're here in the dojo of Toshin-sama, do you have anything to do here?" The young man from the gym asked.

The shy young man showed an embarrassed smile, he pointed to himself and a few people behind him, and said to the young man who opened the door: "I'm sorry, please help inform me, we are here to kick the gym." ”

"What?" The young man said in shock.

"Well, I said please help inform us, we're here to kick the gym." The shy young man said again.

"Everyone, it's not good, someone is coming to kick the gym, everyone come out!"

With the shouts of the young people, dozens of people rushed out of it, and finally a middle-aged man in his forties came out, and this middle-aged man should be the Dongxin Zhicheng they were looking for.

"You're here to kick the gym?" Dong Xinzhicheng said.

"Yes, we're just here to kick the gym." The young man at the head said.

"In that case, you should know the rules of kicking the gym!"

"So here we are, five of us."

"Since you know the rules, I don't have anything to say, let's get started!"

"That's the best!"

When you kick the gym in the gym, you can choose one person to kick the gym, or you can choose a five-person competition, and now they have five people, and they have already said that it is a five-person competition, so it should be the latter.

A one-on-one competition is easy to say, it is a game to decide the winner, and whoever wins and who loses can get the result quickly. The five-man competition is different, and it is not a simple best-of-five round.

Instead, it contains not only the best of five games, but also the victory or defeat of the last game of the normal battle. In other words, even if you win four games before and lose in the normal battle, you can't win, this is the rule of kicking.

They actually gave up in the first two competitions, because the other two teenage young people who followed behind were just ordinary two of the middle-aged disciples, and if those teenagers were to come, there would be absolutely no problem.

Even if you don't need to be too guarded, a few other Kuroda family teenagers who are good at martial arts can definitely face them and achieve a great advantage. But these two matches are not expected by the kickers at all, so even if they lose all of them, it doesn't matter at all.

Because of this, the final result of the competition between these two young people and the disciples in the dojo was one win and one loss, and the middle-aged and young people who started with this were very satisfied, which was an acceptable thing.
