Mao Liyuan didn't know what he was thinking, and he seemed indifferent to the actions of the two sons below, but he may have his own plans, the broken house is still worth a thousand gold, and the foundation he finally laid down can't collapse like this because the third son seized power! He may also have a lot of helplessness in his heart that he can't vent!

On the same day, the ****** of the Maori family was sent to all the wealthy families in the territory, except for some of the necessary troops to guard the border and prevent the Izumo Niko family, the Maori family was almost all in battle, the number of people in the battle reached 13,000, and thousands of people were requisitioned, known as 40,000, to kill Bei China with a fierce momentum.

"The Maori family has finally sent troops, and it looks like we're going to speed up the process." After receiving the news of the Tongxin people, Kuroda said to the samurai.

"Well, and no matter what the results of the battle between the main family and the Mimura family are, the family must start preparing to face the Maori family." Kodera Vocational High School added.

"The battle after that will still depend on everyone," Kuroda said loudly.

"Hey!" The Kuroda samurai replied loudly.

"The inquiry into the Maori family has become a report every quarter of an hour," Kuroda added.

"Hey!" Hattori Baocho, hidden in the dark, replied.

"Kankanwei, let's let the Kuroda family defeat Maori Yuan, the first wise general in the western country!" Kuroda said excitedly.

"Hey! Everything is ready, just waiting for the Maori family to come," Kotera said confidently.

The wealthy clans along the road saw that the Kuroda army was strong, and they all opened the city and surrendered, just like when the Sancun family rose, they turned their backs on the Zhuang family and took refuge in the Sancun family. The Kuroda family's army marched smoothly all the way, and there were only one or two stubborn small wealthy clans, as the concubines of the Mimura family, and the side branch family resisted to the end and was wiped out, and it didn't take long for the Kuroda family to surround Tsurushou Castle. At this time, there were still thousands of people gathered by the three villages in the city, and the three villages had already made all the preparations for the cage city.

The Mimura clan of Tsurushou Castle is the Seiwa Genji clan, and it is the surname because he lives in Mimura Township, Shinji County, Hitachi Province. Later, he moved to Saima Township, Chikuma County, Higashi Shinano Province, a new territory. During the Kamakura period, he moved to Hoshida Village, Oda County, in the Nariba region of Bichu, and was appointed as the head of the land. During the Muromachi period, the Mimura clan was subordinate to the Zhuang clan, but the Mimura family, who became powerful during the Warring States period, destroyed the Zhuang clan and replaced it.

During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, a branch of the Shuliu that separated from the Sancun family gradually prospered and became a Bei Chinese. There is a record of the Shinmi clan, the Nariai clan, the Nasu clan, and the Mimura clan serving Emperor Go-Daigo during the Motohiro Rebellion. After the defeat of Nitta Yoshisada, in response to the Southern Dynasty's plot to use Kyushu to make a comeback, the Ashikaga clan attacked Kyoto, and Mimura Noshi followed the Ashikaga clan at this time.

At the end of the 14th century, Shinano Mimura acquired the territory of Narihaso and infiltrated the Mizuuchi Hokusho, and the Mimura clan gained considerable strength in the Takaliang River valley and became a powerful countryman in China. In the third year of Meio (1494), the matter of the Mimura clan relatives asking for the god of the clan at Nariba Hachimangu Shrine is also recorded in the "Old Records of Nariba Hachimangu Shrine". The clan realized the wish of the ancestors to become the lord of Chengyu and built the Crane Head Castle. As the base of the Mimura clan, Tsurushou Castle was built on a mountain with an altitude of 338 meters, and this mountain resembles the head of a crane, hence the name Tsurushou Castle. On the north side of the castle is the Nariba River, on the west side is the Nitani River, and from the south of the castle to the east of the castle is the Mokuya River. Because of the wrapping of the three rivers and the steep mountain, Tsurushou Castle is a natural danger and has always been an important place connecting Bigo and Bichu.

Seeing the situation of Tsurushou Castle, the Kuroda family did not blindly start attacking the city, but mainly besieged it, first set up a camp under the castle, and began to repair. At the same time, the Kuroda family recruited a local tycoon who had just surrendered to the Honjin shogunate for questioning.

"In Shimo-Hirai Kontake, I've seen the lord and all the adults." After entering the big tent, the head of the wealthy family bowed to Kuroda Zhilong, who was sitting at the top, and then bowed to everyone present, and then said carefully.

"Well, there is no need to be polite, it is indeed a bit abrupt to invite you to come this time, in fact, I just want to ask you, in addition to the avenue of going up the mountain, there are other paths in this Heshou City that can lead to the city on the top of the mountain." Kuroda asked.

"Don't dare to deceive the lord, I have climbed the first city of the crane several times in the next, except for the road up the mountain, there is no way up the mountain anymore." Kohirai said respectfully.

"Oh! In that case, where did Heshou Castle get its water from? Kuroda continued to ask.

"The water source in the city of Heshou Castle is completely dependent on a stream in front of the mountain, which is a tributary of the Nariba River, and there is a large cistern in the city, which will be stored with clear water for a long time, and I remember that His Royal Highness Heshou once said that it can be used for half a month when it is full." After speaking, Kohirai Kontake also pointed in a direction in front of the mountain, and there was really a small stream, which was the source of the water of Heshou Castle.

"In that case, let's send someone to cut off the stream first, and then discuss the rest." Kuroda said.

"Hey!"

The Kuroda family immediately sent four teams of 800 people, Kosaii Zhennao, Saito Nagami, Hanabo Masayuki, and Umino Nobuyoshi, to control the water source of the Mimura family When the Kuroda family came, it had already been discovered by the Mimura family, and the Kuroda family's move to control the water source was seen clearly by everyone in the city.

Before, the small Hirai Kontake said that the water in the city was enough to last for half a month, which actually meant that in a non-war situation, but now there are not only hundreds of ordinary people in the city, but also thousands of soldiers who have gathered, and this water really won't last long.

"Damn, the Kuroda family actually cut off the water source." Mimura said angrily.

"Here, the water in the city is only enough for a few days, I don't know if it can last until Maori's house arrives!" Mimura shook his head and said.

"Sure, you don't need to worry, the Maori army will arrive soon, and the danger of the family will naturally be lifted at that time." The Mimura family said firmly to everyone at this time.

"It's just that after defeating the Kuroda family at that time, the family will welcome the fourth son of the Maori family as an adopted son, so that the family business of the Mimura family will be handed over." Mimura sighed.

"Don't worry, we'll talk about that later! The most important thing now is to guard the city and wait for the arrival of the Maori family. The three village relatives said helplessly.

At this time, the army of the Mori family had already arrived in Bigo Province, but the army stopped for the time being, and Mori Moto sent Kobayakawa Takakei to Noh Island and invited Murakami Takeyoshi to jointly send troops, apparently the Mori family did not know that the Kuroda family had a naval army.
