"Actually, I was lured by the Kuroda family in Xia, and then I encountered an ambush by the Kuroda family, so I rushed to meet the battle, and I lost a lot of losses, and it was not clear how many troops the Kuroda family sent, and several of the generals who led the team were not the famous Kuroda generals described in the previous intelligence, so I really don't know. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Otagaki Teruyan knows that he must not completely tell the truth, and can only describe it half-truthfully.

"Ambushed? Or lure the enemy, did Lord Otagaki really only lose 500 men? Tian Jiezhuang continued to ask, Otagaki Teruyan was very angry, and his old bottom was about to be asked. If this was in normal times, it is estimated that he would have drawn his sword a long time ago.

"It's true that only five hundred men and horses were lost? It's a shame to say that after the sneak attack at that time, the situation was extremely chaotic, and the next people collapsed almost instantly, so most of them fled back, and now the 1,000 troops of the family have all gathered in Takeda Castle, and the Kuroda family may attack at any time, so the three adults must help the Otagaki family once. "After all, Teruyan Otagaki is an old fox, so he immediately thought of a statement.

"As far as the Kuroda family knows, it is estimated that there is only one person who can come up with such a tactic." Gakiya thought for a moment and said something unfinished.

"You mean......" Toyonobu Yagi was surprised and didn't continue.

"Exactly, the small temple vocational high school." Gakiya said in a low voice.

"Kirin of Harima Country! It is said that the battle in which the Kuroda family destroyed the Takino Akamatsu family was planned by the then fourteen-year-old Kotera Vocational High School as a military advisor to the Kuroda family. In the next two battles of Murozu Castle, he was also extremely active as a military advisor, and the subsequent Bizen Country Raiders are also said to have been planned by him. Before the Kuroda family destroyed the Uetsuki family, he played for the first time as a general general. When the Kuroda family attacked Kamizen County this year, he was also the chief general, and wherever he passed, he heard the wind and surrendered, and he didn't taste a battle. It is said that the Bessho family sent an army to take the opportunity to invade Jinzen-gun, but they were attacked by Kodera Zhigao's tactics, and the whole army was annihilated, and the main general was spared. The prestige of this son has spread throughout Harima and Bizen. If he really led the army, Lord Otagaki would not have been wronged. It is said that there is also a young man called Kirin in the distant country of Mino, and in addition to Izumo's Kanosuke, they are called the three Kirin of the island country outside! It's a momentary handsome, but I didn't expect us to meet one of them so quickly! Tian Jiezhuang said.

"Although it is through an ambush, it can easily defeat the army of the Otagaki family, and the number of people will not be less than two thousand!" Toyonobu Yagi asked cautiously.

"The three adults are fully mobilized, plus some people from the small wealthy clan, they should be able to gather five or six thousand people, and they should be able to compete head-on, why are they afraid of the two thousand people and horses in Kuroda?" Terunobu Otagaki said with great confidence.

"It is said that Kodera is a scheming person, and every time the Kuroda family goes to war, they are exhausted by their tricks. Although we have the advantage in numbers, I am afraid that he will not compete with us head-on! And fighting on the land of my Danema, no matter what the battle looks like in the end, it will be bad for my Danema! Lord Otagaki. Gakiya said worriedly.

"I am willing to compensate each family for the cost of sending troops, and all the grain and grass will be taken care of by the Otagaki family, what do you adults think?" Otagaki Teruyan had long known that they would not easily cooperate with the troops, and they would have to pay a certain price.

"The Otagaki family sits on the Ikuno Silver Mountain, so they won't be so stingy, right?" Gakiya said with a smile.

"What does Agakiya-sama think is not stingy?"

"Ikuno Silver Mountain is a treasure given to Tajima by God, and it should belong to Tajima Province, and all people in Tajima should benefit from it, what do you think, Lord Otagaki!" Gakiya Susei looked at Ota Gaki Terunobu and said resolutely.

"It's impossible for other small wealthy families, you three families will give it to you...... How much does it benefit from 10% every year? Otagaki Teruyan gritted his teeth and said.

"Wouldn't it be better to have 20 percent?" Toyonobu Yagi said in a low voice.

"One into five, there will be no more price increases, anyway, now the silver mountain is still in the hands of the Kuroda family, it's a big deal to hand it over to the Kuroda family" Otagaki Huiyan made a bloody effort to repel the Kuroda family, but as long as the Kuroda family is repelled, but the horse country is still up to him, and the Ikuno Silver Mountain is still under the control of the Otagaki family, and the Ikuno Silver Mountain is the private property of his Otagaki family, and no one wants to snatch it.

"In this case, Lord Otagaki has expressed so generously, and the old man can only send troops to fight against the invasion of the Kuroda family for the sake of the independence of Equestria and the safety of the people." Gakiya said with a smile.

"I'm willing to contribute to Tajima Country," and Toyonobu Yagi also agreed to send troops.

"Under ...... Lord Otagaki, as well as the two adults Yagi and Gakiya, forgive me for not being able to agree to this, so I retired first. Tian Jiezhuang is righteous got up and was about to leave.

"Lord Tayuzuku, why is that? Are you still not satisfied with the conditions you are given? "Otagaki Teiyan thought that Tian Yuzhuang was righteous because he was not satisfied with the conditions he had offered, and he just pretended to leave so that he could ask for more benefits.

"It's not like that, but I really don't dare to face the Kuroda family, please forgive me" After saying that, Tian Yuzhuang is righteous left the room.

"Damn, when I repel the Kuroda family, the first thing to clean up is your Tian Jiezhuang is righteousness." Hearing the footsteps of Tian Yuzhuang Shiyi walking away, Otagaki Teruyan gritted his teeth and said.

At this time, Tian Yuzhuang was actually just stomping his feet in the corridor a few times, Otagaki Terugen was standing outside the door when he spoke, and every word he said reached his ears, he squinted, his face was gloomy, and he left the house of Otagaki's house softly.

After the discussion, Gakiya and Yagi Toyonobu immediately returned to the territory and began to assemble troops, and at the same time, some small wealthy clans attached to the three families also gathered in the residence of the three families, and two days later, when the three armies converged, they really put together an army of nearly 5,000 people. Although there are a large number of people, among the 5,000 people, there are less than 500 samurai and standing ashigaru who are really capable of fighting power, and the rest are all peasant soldiers, so it is really difficult to say how much strength they can exert themselves.

But what Otagaki Terugen didn't know was that when the Otagaki family was ambushed in the Mahugaki Pass, the Kuroda family did send 2,200 troops, but now in addition to these 2,000 ashigaru and 200 Ming country firearms, there are also 2,000 and a half standing peasant soldiers who then entered Tajima Province together, so the Kuroda family sent a total of more than 4,000 troops this time. Because he had roughly figured out the ability of Tajima to send troops, Kotera dared to rest in Iwashu Castle, recuperate, and wait for the Tajima army to assemble.
