More than ten days after being defeated by the Niko family on the border of Izumo Province, in the Imperial Pavilion of Hamada Castle, when Yoshikawa Motoharu walked out of the room and appeared in front of everyone again, Yoshimi Masariri knew that the time had come to send troops. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because at this time, Yoshikawa Motoharu has completely recovered to the demeanor that had just led the army and entered the outdated time, and swept away the shadow of being defeated by the Nizi family. His face is no longer the frustration after failure, and there is that deep incomprehension and self-blame, replaced by a kind of self-confidence and arrogance under the free and easy, this is what the historical famous Yoshikawa Motoharu should be.

The depression after being defeated before is the test of the transformation of Yoshikawa Motoharu to a famous general. Some people may not be able to cross this hurdle in their hearts, but Yoshikawa Motoharu is definitely not them, he is the son of Maori Motosa, the famous general Yoshikawa Motoharu of the Western Kingdom, this is his self-confidence and arrogance.

After that, the remaining 2,500 troops in Hamada Castle, under the leadership of Yoshikawa Motoharu, left Hamada Castle again, and marched towards the camp of the Nizi family as last time, preparing to fight against the army of the Nizi family.

This time, the army of the Nizi family did not use any more schemes, because they had already defeated Yoshikawa Motoharu once before. Therefore, knowing that the military strength of the Mori family came to challenge again, under the result of the self-confidence of the general Yoshihisa Niko, the army of the Niko family prepared to face the army of the Mori family led by the famous general Yoshikawa Motoharu this time.

The two sides met again this time in Xinggao Mountain, this time the Nizi family was not using any ambush tricks, after Nizi Yoshihisa was a famous family, he deeply thought that some methods would be too much to use once, and the open battle was what the samurai did, and he thought that he was the descendant of a bright and upright samurai, and he should abide by the laws of the samurai, intrigues or something, or leave it to Kuroda Vocational High School who was born as an eye medicine seller.

Because it was a head-on battle, the Nizi family had already set up a formation under the Star High Mountain early. And the army of the Niko family, under the order of Niko Yoshihisa, was very gentlemanly and gave the Maori army time to arrange the formation, instead of rushing directly over, this is one of the rules that Niko Yoshihisa believes that samurai should follow, and the enemy should be given a certain amount of respect.

In this way, at the foot of the Hoshigao Mountain, the two sides of the Nizi family and the Maori family quickly started a battle, this time by the 7,500 people of the Nizi family, facing the 2,500 people of the Maori family.

Originally, it should have been a one-sided battle in terms of numbers, after all, the Nizi family was much stronger than the Maori family's army in terms of numbers and strength on paper, and there were iron cannons to help. However, under the excellent command of the general Niko Yoshihisa, it is also because the soldiers of the Maori family are indeed superior to the soldiers of the Niko family in terms of combat effectiveness.

Therefore, in the end, although both sides hoped to win the final victory in this battle, in the actual battle process, the armies on both sides formed a posture of fighting on the battlefield. For a time, the two sides became a stalemate situation, and they could only continue to fight each other. After an hour of fighting, after dropping hundreds of corpses on each side, they retreated to their own camp and waited for the next battle.

After that, the two sides fought each other three times in three days, all of which ended up in this kind of indistinguishable victory, and in the end, both sides were unwilling to cause more casualties, so a confrontation situation was formed in Xinggao Mountain. Occasionally, the two sides would fight on a small scale, but they also won and lost each other, but no one could help anyone, and the Niko family and the Maori family were at a stalemate in Iwami Province.

But in any case, this time in the battle of Iwami Province, the Niko family was the victor. After all, in how many years, they once again entered Iwami Province and regained control of Iwami Ginzan, which is something worthy of praise for Niko Yoshihisa.

Of course, in the absence of Maori Yuan, the Nizi family hit the small one, and it can be regarded as agreeing. But after Maori Yuan returned to the army, how long the Niko family could be in Iwami Province, I really don't know.

But for this kind of grand strategy thing, Niko Yoshihisa doesn't know anything at all, and he doesn't have any interest in asking, this is not something he likes, if someone praises him for recapturing Iwami Silver Mountain, maybe he will still be happy!

Anyway, Niko Yoshihisa doesn't like these, and he can't care so much, for Niko Yoshihisa, who is sitting in Iwami Province in this matter, what he is thinking about in his heart is the money of Iwami Country that he got back, how many screens can be exchanged for him in Sakai Town, as well as tea bowls and Nanban, there is a Nanban that he has wanted for a long time, it is a large grandfather clock with a statue of a naked woman, since he saw it once, he has been thinking about buying one, and this time he finally has money.

By the way, there is one more thing that Yoshihisa Niko also wants, and that is Kuroda-yaki, a specialty of the Kuroda family. Can I send someone to Kuroda's house this time, and as an ally, buy a long-coveted best Kuroda ware at a low price? It is said that in Sakai Town, it is a precious treasure that can only be bought for hundreds of dollars, and even Sen no Rikyu is full of praise for tea ware! Go directly to Kuroda's house to buy it, with your handsome appearance and the identity of your allies, you can get a discount!

The Maori family already has an army of thousands of people, and has gone to Kyushu to conduct a conquest, and is currently fighting with the Otomo family in Bunzen Province, and will not be able to return for a while; And in addition, there is Yoshikawa Motoharu's army, which is facing off against the Nizi family in Iwami Province, thanks to the pig teammate Nizi's family, if you don't grasp such a good opportunity, I'm really sorry for God's gift.

Originally, the Kuroda family had already made up their minds this year, and they were bent on developing the internal affairs of the territory, not preparing to go out to fight, and hoarding grain and grass for future events. Now that Kuroda Vocational High School sees that there is such a good opportunity, Kuroda Vocational High School, who has always liked to sneak attack the rear of others when other people's forces are weak, how could he miss the opportunity!

However, it is true that the Kuroda family has had too many military operations in recent years, so it is not suitable to send a large army again, but Kuroda Vocational High School brought Takatomo Musatomo, Hanafang Masayuki, Umino Nobuyoshi, Kuno Shigekatsu, Masuda Masaaki, Miyake Ieyoshi, and Yoshida Nagatoshi to prepare for China.

After converging the 2,000 troops sent over before (1,000 standing ashigaru and 1,000 elite peasant soldiers), as well as the 1,000 Beizhong people led by Imate Tomoshi himself, he raised a large army of 3,000 and pointed his sword at the Houguo. Without the knowledge of the Mori family, they entered Fukatsu-gun in Bigo Province from the Takaya Street at the junction of Bichu and Bigo. (To be continued.) )
