That night, when Kuroda Vocational High School was still eating, he got the news of Nikaido Hideka's submission. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info because of the words to Nikaido Hideka, it was completely aimed at his weakness, so everything was logical, and there was no possibility of failure at all, so Kuroda Vocational High School didn't think much about it.

But to be honest, Nikaido Hideka has just experienced the tragedy of her own family being completely wiped out by the Kuroda family. Nikaido Hideka himself went from a noble castle lord to a prisoner of the Kuroda family. It's a huge identity shift for everyone.

Although Nikaido Hideka is indeed under the coercion of Kuroda's high school now, he has accepted the conditions of surrendering to the Kuroda family, but at this time, Nikaido Hideka has experienced the death of two brothers, and his family's lives have been threatened, and his loyalty can be imagined.

However, none of this is something that Kuroda needs to think about, what he needs to think about now is how to successfully take Tanba Province. As for Nikaido Hideka's loyalty, it's better to wait until he is transferred to Inaba country, and Matsui Shigetaka will have a headache!

The next day, the Kuroda family's army had already repaired and stopped, and all of them marched rapidly, and came to the Shinoyama Basin, where they came because the home of the Shikai family, Rani Castle, was here. Because the previous head of the family, Shinoi Kyoye, died in Kusano Castle, the current head of the family is his eldest son, and now only nine-year-old Shinoi Tsunori. And he was assisted by some of the retainers who remained who were not very capable.

In fact, the Shinoi family is a new wealthy family that has only risen in recent decades, and its source of wealth is the abundant timber resources in the Shinoyama Basin.

Because the previous head of the family, Mikai Kyoye, had taken almost most of the soldiers in the family in order to help the Hatano family, and now there are only dozens of people in the Nuoda Shinoi Castle. After learning that the head of the family, Yori, had died in Kusano Castle and that the Kuroda family had come here, the Sakai family was completely in chaos.

Under the persuasion of the retainers of the Kuroda family to surrender, Tsunashi Shinoi, as the head of the family, showed a tenacity that did not match his age at all, and said that he would not surrender.

In the end, the Kuroda family only used one charge to take the weakened Shiai Castle. Tsunashi Shinoi, who died of resolute resistance to the Oda family in history, died because of resistance to the Kuroda family more than ten years ahead of schedule.

After capturing Sawai Castle, under the leadership of the Araki clan, the gates of the castle were opened, and the Kuroda family completed the suppression of Taki County.

After that, Kuroda Vocational High School also took a break and visited the famous local Cendishi Shrine.

Kuroda Vocational High School also decided on one thing, that is, to marry the fourteen-year-old princess Tsuruhime of the Hatano family for Genji, and to marry the princess and son of the Nikaido family for Saburo Zuo, provided that Kuroda Vocational High School has already seen these two girls, and they are indeed cute girls, otherwise he would not pit his own brother.

What's more, these two girls will only be a side room in the future, which is why Kuroda Vocational High School dares to do this, if it is the main room, it must be agreed by Kuroda Vocational High.

At this time, in the eastern part of Sanki Province, a big war was about to take place, counting the more than 7,000 people of the Kuroda family and the 17,000 people of the Miyoshi family, and the number of people on both sides reached 24,000, which is an incredible number.

The Kuroda family set up a main camp at Tenfukuji Temple in Yamada County early on, and sent a front to guard the pass of Mt. Ishikami, while the Miyoshi family set up a main camp in the Sanjo Hakusan area opposite Mt. Ishigami on the opposite side of Mt. Ishiga.

"It seems that the Miyoshi family has an absolute advantage at least in terms of numbers this time!" Kuroda said as he looked at the barracks on the other side.

"Hey!" Everyone around him nodded in agreement.

"When the family was just rising, it encountered the attack of the Urakami family, and the Urakami family attacked the Urakami family twice, when the family only had 2,000 soldiers, and the Urakami family faced an army of 10,000 people." Kuroda said with a smile.

"Yes! At that time, I and my brother also participated in that battle, and it was really hard at that time! If it weren't for the young lord who came up with a way to sneak attack Bizen Country with a partial division at that time, this family should have been in danger at that time! Funatsui said with a smile.

"That's true, when I saw the army of the Urakami family below in Murozu Castle, I felt a little desperate in my heart, but fortunately I can live until now." Sakabuchi Nagatsu said.

Speaking of the Kuroda family's expedition to the army of Sanuki Province, only Kuroda Yotaka, Hattori Hocho, Miyata Mitsuji, Sakabuchi Nagatsu, and Funatsui Tsuji participated in the battle of Murozu Castle, and the others were all retainers who joined later, at most Suzuki Shigesei, the mercenary of the Urakami family at that time.

"How should I deal with it this time? The number of people on the other side is more than twice that of the family! Harada asked.

"Gengoro, what do you think?" Kuroda asked directly to Sanada Masayuki at this time, which surprised many people here.

"My lord, and my lords, the reason why I asked my lord to seize the mountain pass of Shijing Mountain was to seize the advantageous terrain." Sanada said.

At this time, Aoki Kazuki asked, "Was the seizure of Shijing Mountain out of Sanada-sama's idea?" ”

"Hey! This is because this is the most suitable location for this joint battle after I have looked at all the terrain in the vicinity in a few days. Masayuki Sanada said.

"I see, then there is no opinion below." Aoki said.

"The family has now set up a position in the mountain pass of the Stone Realm, and the crossbowfoot light reserve has also been arranged on the mountains on both sides, and then the two iron artillery teams of the family snipe the enemy's vanguard team in front of the mountain pass. If the enemy is close, retreat to the mountains on either side and continue sniping at the enemy's follow-up team.

As for the army of the Miyoshi family, they fought with their backs to the Nagao River, which should mean fighting on their backs. However, there are many conditions required to fight against the water, and it cannot be done with the back of the river, and the result may be to boost morale or finally collapse. ”

"What Sanada-sama means is that the Miyoshi family made a mistake in choosing to set up a formation in the Sanjo Hakusan area this time?" Shimizu asked.

"Hey! The family set up a formation in Shijing Mountain in order to seize the advantageous terrain. And the Miyoshi family set up a formation in the opposite Sanjo Baishan place on the opposite side, but they fell behind, because they purely wanted to confront the military strength of their own family, and at the same time relied on their numerical superiority, so they made this choice, and they were already led away by their own family. Masayuki Sanada said.

"So what are we going to do?" Miyata Mitsuji asked. (To be continued.) )
