At dusk on May 7, Noyama Yoshitomo received an urgent message from Kodoshima in Kishiwa and Tian Castle, Hanafang Masayuki and Murakami Tomiyuki urgently told Noyama Yoshitoaki that Xiangxi Motoqing wanted to mess with Shanglin City, and Shihe City Miyoshi Yoshitoshi launched an attack on Shanglin City, trying to quickly destroy Shanglin City and deter the distorted forces.

The attack on Xiangxi Yuanqing will not only not deter the people of the country, but will cause everyone to die and cause a split between the old and new forces

Since the fall of the Kamakura shogunate, disagreement has always been the angle of contention between the northern and southern dynasties, and at one time the Hatoko clan and the Ueda clan also worked for the southern dynasty. Later Hosokawa Yoriyuki announced the establishment of the Northern Dynasty's rule, and during his tenure as guardian, he reused the Yasutomi, Nara, and Kagawa clans who had followed him from the eastern country to Sanki, and suppressed the hate-considered rebellious clans such as Hameko and Ueda. The Ten Rivers clan is just a Ueda family in Yamada County, and it is difficult to act independently and has been repeatedly constrained by the main family, and it is the object of contempt for the four heavenly kings of Hosokawa and other guardians of the direct retainers, and it is questionable whether the **** world can guarantee its survival. However, in the flickering light of the candle in the wind, the Shihe clan actually became the master of Sanuki, giving orders to his former peers, striving to remove the obstacles to the development of feudal centralization at the local level, and becoming a major pillar of the Miyoshi regime's hegemony in Ki, and its achievements are enough to make people stagger. The emotion is not exhausted, Shikoku has repeatedly changed its flag, Daisuke Minbu died in Tosa, and Ten Rivers Castle fell into the hands of his second brother, Miyoshi Yoshiken.

Hanafang Masayuki and Murakami Tongyuki made an analysis and judgment based on this, Miyoshi Yoshixian tried his best to attack Shanglin City, even if he could get lucky for a while, the momentum of the counterattack under the tragedy of the rabbit and the fox was already predictable, and the momentum of the prairie fire had been achieved, and now was a good time to attack.

Hanafang Masayuki and Murakami Tsuyuki consulted Noyama Yoshitomo for their opinion, whether to invite the legion commander Noyama Yoshitomo to come to Sanqi or Awa to preside over the overall situation of the legion, and lead the army to rush to Sanqi to support the people who plotted against the country, and attack the enemy with the strength of one skill, and use warships to attack and harass Miyoshi Yoshixian, block Miyoshi Yoshixian, and those who lag behind capture Shanglin Castle, exhaust their military strength, disturb their military morale, and complete the situation of entrapment of Miyoshi Yoshixian, so as to achieve the first victory of the four countries as soon as possible. At the end of the emergency report, it was implied that Shimizu Soji was eating meat and drinking soup now, and they were about to lose the soup.

The fact is that where there are people, there is a struggle, there is a competition of interests, although the Qing Shui Soji attacked the Awa country, no matter how the final interests of the Noyama Yi Dynasty will have a piece, but the four countries are so big, there are so many interests, and it is difficult to smooth out a glass of water if you occupy more or less

When Noyama received an urgent report, his heart moved, and the time was gradually ripe, and it was time to leave. As soon as the urgent report was put down, the good news came, Ichinomiya Castle was captured, Ogasawara Narisuke led the defeated army to flee to Kamizakura Castle, and Shimizu Soji sent the Saga people to follow behind, chasing and killing at the end of the day.

Even if he knew that Shimizu Soji and Date Army were strong, Noyama Masatomo was slightly shocked when he received the good news, and he couldn't believe it, so he invited the messenger to ask urgently, and when he learned that the good news was not false at all, he couldn't help but admire the power of the cannon. In half a day, Ichinomiya Castle was captured, and in this way, Shengrui City in Pingchuan was not able to hold much time, and he hesitated for a while.

Noyama Yoshitomo was not angry but happy, he was not jealous of Shimizu Soji's martial arts, but appreciated Shimizu Soji's behavior of abandoning Shengrui and attacking the first palace. However, on the other hand, Shimizu Soji's good news is also secretly urging him to dispatch as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late for Shengrui City to collapse without a fight.

It is impossible for Shengrui City to collapse without a fight, before the fall of Ichinomiya Castle, he didn't believe it, but Shimizu Soji took a palace castle in half a day, and Shengrui City has become a chicken rib to defend it, and only relying on the mountains and mountains may be able to hold on for a while.

Noyama Masatomo ordered the main force of the army to land on Naruto Bo Castle, cut off the retreat of Katsurui Castle, and attack Katsurui Castle with Shimizu Soji in the south and north, so as to achieve the final victory of the Awa Kingdom as soon as possible, and then attack the Saki Province with victory, completely blocking the back road of Miyoshi Yoshiken.

He also ordered Shodoshima Hanafang Masayuki and Murakami Tsuyuki to immediately lead a fleet to support Kabayashi Castle, attack Katsuga Castle, strike at Miyoshi Yoshiken's army, delay Miyoshi Yoshiken's actions, and prepare for landing at any time, showing a north-south attack.

Then he personally led the 5,000 main forces staying in Kishiwada Castle and quickly took a boat to Awaji Island, from which he turned to land at Naruto Port Castle.

The Saga people, who were chasing the defeated soldier Ogasawara Narisuke, were attacked by a small group of ambush soldiers five miles away from Kamizakura Castle, and were caught off guard.

The Saga people, who were good at iron cannons, were beaten by the iron cannons, and Suzuki Yoshikane and the next thousand Zaga people were all red-skinned, and they were completely enraged, originally because they didn't get any battle merits in the battle of Ichinomiya Castle, and they wanted to achieve battle merits in the pursuit battle, but they never thought of being tripped by ants.

Suzuki Yoshikan was ashamed and palpitated, if he hadn't shivered as if he had been helped by God just now, and bent over, the guards behind him became his substitute ghost, "Bang! Half of his head was blown off with a bang.

Yoshikane Suzuki looked at the guards who had been following him on the expedition, half of his head was gone, bursts of bright red blood appeared, and he fell heavily to the ground, only to hear a muffled snort, convulsions and then no movement, if he hadn't bent down, he would have been attacked.

"Bang Bang Bang"

There was a sound of fried beans, and except for the first projectile that hit the Zaga people, the rest of the projectiles were inaccurate, and only raised some dust. Yoshikan Suzuki was shocked, bowed down, and mused, "I'm afraid there are no less than a hundred iron cannons?" ”

Suddenly, the hillsides exploded, and thousands of miscellaneous congregations were in chaos. Yoshikane Suzuki quickly calmed down and commanded the Saga people to act, and the sound of iron cannons sounded, and the location of the ambush had been exposed, just on the slope of their more than 300 meters.

Three hundred meters away, opposite the hillside.

Almost at the same time as lighting the arquebus and pulling the trigger, a tall and strong baby-faced young man bent down, lit a string of firecrackers and threw them into a hole in the ground.

Saga reacted quickly, coming up the hillside on all sides, leaving them with only a dug fortification, and a scorched cannon in a hole no more than half a foot deep, and several squibs delivered to Yoshikane Suzuki.

Seeing this situation, even fools can see that they have been tricked. The Zaga people, who expanded the number of thousands of people, played a majestic Zaga crowd in the battle of Zhongbuchuan, and were played by a small group of ambush soldiers, which sounded good was a handful, and if it was ugly, it was a person, and he didn't know who it was, and he didn't even know who to seek revenge.

Throwing the squib to the ground, Yoshikani Suzuki crushed it with his foot, panting in disbelief, gritting his teeth and roaring, "Damn, whoever it is, I'm going to catch this cunning fox with my own hands and skin him alive." ”

Yoshikama Suzuki stumbled, was inexplicably ambushed, and watched Ogasawara Narisuke, who was about to catch up, flee into Kamizakura Castle, very embarrassed, he returned to Ichinomiya Castle with a red face to ask Shimizu Soji for guilt, and vowed to break through Kamizakura Castle to wash away his defeat.

The Shimizu Sect governed the embarrassing situation that Suzuki Yoshikane was currently in, and besides, he also needed the elite army of Saga Zhong, but he didn't blame him for his failure, but he was just appeased, but this made Suzuki Yoshikane feel even more ashamed.

On the evening of May 8, Shanglin City.

At this time, Shanglin City, not even a complete tile can be found, the ancient and strong city wall completely collapsed, the city tower built on the city wall was almost overwhelmed by the fire, completely turned into a ruin, yes, Shanglin City became a ruin.

Before the smoke of gunpowder was over, at least 500 soldiers of the Sanhao Army poured into Shanglin City from all directions, they wanted to confirm the life and death of Xiangxi Yuanqing, but what was waiting for them was a scorched earth, and they did not find even a single survivor on this scorched earth that was still burning.

Miyoshi Yixian did not enter the city, he stood on the earthen ridge, chatting about the messy Shanglin City, vaguely seeing the scorched black limbs and stumps of the defenders, seeing this scene, his face finally recovered a trace of blood, and muttered: "Hope is still too late." ”

Xiangxi Yuancheng, who had adjusted his mentality, came to serve in front of Miyoshi Yixian when he attacked Shanglin City, and when he saw that Shanglin City was broken, he was relieved and asked cautiously: "My lord, is it an attack on Shengtong Temple City?" ”

Miyoshi Yoshiken didn't nod, he wanted to go to Shengtong Temple Castle immediately and beat Nara Motoshin, but he knew that the Date army would arrive at any time, and it would be detrimental to the army's morale to stay any longer, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Let them live a few more days." ”

Xiangxi Yuancheng nodded regretfully and replied: "Yes!" ”

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and following the sound, a cavalryman hurried over, only to see his dusty and tired face, he must have done a lot of work, and when he approached, he also avoided it, waved his horsewhip twice, and planned to rush through the army.

Xiang Xi Yuancheng saw that someone was bold, and immediately jumped out and scolded: "This is the military formation of Lord Miyoshi, and you won't tie me up, if you dare to resist, you will cut it immediately." "He is a villain, and he has done a lot of things to do power, and no one dares to despise his master.

Miyoshi Yixian saw the banner behind the cavalry, and shouted: "Stop, quickly bring him to me, this person has military intelligence." ”

The cavalry was quickly brought to Miyoshi Yoshixian, who recognized Miyoshi Yoshixian, immediately knelt down, raised the bronze medal around his waist, proved his identity, and then bluntly said: "The villain does not dare to deceive the adult, the villain is in a hurry this time, not because of his business." Instead, this morning, the Date Army's Shimizu Soji Department attacked Ichinomiya Castle, and Ogasawara Nagato was defeated, so that it was breached Ichinomiya Castle within an hour, and more than a thousand defenders were annihilated, and Ogasawara Nagato was missing. After the fiasco, the Date army immediately attacked Sakura Castle! The villain came to ask for help on the orders of Yamato Shou. ”

When Miyoshi Yixian heard the bad news, he was extremely shocked, and immediately said angrily: "What?!" The fall of Ichinomiya Castle?! Ogasawara is an incompetent rat, how strong Ichinomiya Castle is, more than a thousand defenders, can't even resist for an hour, and the entire Awa country is going to mess with him! ”

Xiangxi Yuan Chenggu is a villain, but he is not a fool. He could hear the messenger's words with a pale face, and he had already heard something bad from the words of Miyoshi Yoshiken who did not attack Nara Motoshin. Now that he heard the fall of Ichinomiya Castle, he confirmed his conjecture that Miyoshi Yoshiken had already retreated. Miyoshi Yoshiken retreated, and how should Kanishi Motonari in Katsuga Castle deal with himself, it makes people's scalps tingle to think about it, whether it is a rebel who is disrespectful or the Date Army that is about to land, he will not let go of Kasai Motosei, a traitor who aids and abuses.

Xiangxi Yuancheng knew that the only way to save himself was to make miraculous achievements, he peeked at the three good Yixian, bowed his head and said nothing, a trace of hideousness flashed in his eyes, and when he looked up again, he was still that humble and obedient servant.

Miyoshi Yoshinori was a full slave before and after the saddle, and Xiangxi Yuancheng had just flashed a vicious thought, and he was still shocked by the bad news of Ichinomiya Castle, and he asked urgently: "Who else knows about this?" He was worried that the news of the destruction of Ichinomiya Castle would spread.

The messenger replied that he had come directly from the City of Ten Rivers, and that there were only a few people in front of him. However, this kind of news that changed the overall situation will not be hidden for long, and it will spread throughout the four countries and even the world in a day or two at most.

Yoshiken Miyoshi ordered the news to be blocked, and did everything he could to block the news.

He knew that the bad news spread, and half of the tens of thousands of horses under his command would be dispersed immediately, and he wanted to return to Ten Rivers City immediately, and then transfer to the more difficult Tiger Pill City. At the same time, he ordered the Shinohara-nagabo of Katsurui Castle to abandon Katsurui Castle and come to join him.

Kasai Motosei knew that he would definitely die if he continued to stay in Katsuga Castle, and he didn't even return to the city, so he followed Miyoshi Yoshiken in, and from time to time he looked at Miyoshi Yoshiken's eyes full of viciousness and hideousness, and he knew that there would always be a time to be alone.

Shinohara Nagabo Xian couldn't get Miyoshi Yoshiken's retreat order, he stood on the head of Katsurui Castle and chatted at the military formations surging from all directions, his face was pale, there was no trace of blood, and his younger brother Sakichi Bei's trembling voice sounded in his ears: "Brother, break through!" ”

If a few days ago, he heard the cowardly and incompetent breakthrough suggestion, even if it was his younger brother, Shinohara's long room would have slapped him hard. But when the bad news came from Ichinomiya Castle, no one dared to swear that they could defend Katsurui Castle in Yima Pingchuan.

Shinohara, Nagabo, glanced at the turbulent Yoshino River and sighed. If he could build a dam on the Yoshino River, he wouldn't have to be so passive, digging the dam and flooding the Seventh Army, the first dam across the Yoshino River would not appear until a hundred years later, and the current Yoshino River is still the Yoshino River that has not changed for thousands of years.

At the end of one's resources.

The Yoshino River, which Katsurui Castle thought was a natural trench, blocked their way to break through, and even if they wanted to break through, it was not so easy. Victory or defeat was only in a blink of an eye, and everyone in Shengrui City was depressed. Shinohara's long house turned his head and said, "Break through, where to break through?"
