Kiyokawa Hengxiu, Matsushima Hengkatsu, and Iwase Hengzhong reached an agreement, and put on a posture of besieging the city for reinforcements, and immediately persuaded the unruly generals of the first formation of the Date Army. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info In their opinion, it is refreshing to go directly to attack the big friendly army, but what Qinghe Hengxiu said is true, once the big army is dispatched, the timid big friendly army will definitely be frightened, and hide in the ravine, and they are not familiar with the place of chasing is not not not chasing. It is better to besiege Fukuji Castle first and induce the big friendly army to throw themselves into the net.

Even if the main commander of the Great Friendly Army has no guts and does not dare to come to the battle, they can calmly deal with it after they break through Sefukuji Castle, and they just push it over, without looking ahead and backwards. Although I am not afraid of Shao Erdongshang's recurrence, there is no need to delay precious time on Shao Erdongshang.

Kiyokawa Henghide led his headquarters to attack and besiege Shifukuji Castle, while Matsushima Hengkatsu and Iwase Hengtada each led their headquarters to guard the two places of Hishita and Matsumachi on the banks of the Chikugo River, monitoring the Otomo army on the other side of the Chikugo River, and feigning to be the main force to contain the main force of the Otomo army.

The dispatch of the army was not an overnight thing, and while the first formation of the Date Army was still regrouping, Tsukushi Yumen's cronies found the spies that Baba Kenshu had planted nearby, and spread the news to the ears of Baba Kenshu, who was loyal to the Shaoji clan.

When Ma Chang Jianzhou suddenly heard the bad news, he was immediately shocked and opened his mouth, but he didn't shout until he arrived, and after thinking about it carefully, this matter was actually expected. Shao Erdong is still hesitant and capricious, and it is understandable that the Date Army wants to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys.

Ma Chang Jian Zhou sighed, he knew that Shao Er Dongshang would not get any courtesy even if he wanted to surrender now, but he still decided to make a final effort and took more than ten horsemen to go towards Shifuji Castle.

Riots in the city.

The news of the enemy's attack, with the sound of the rallying cry, soon spread throughout Sefukuji Castle. The soldiers gathered fast and slowly, and the orders of Shao Er Dongshang came into the army one by one, and the frightened defenders had already been frightened by the sound of trumpets.

Since the news of the fall of Dazaifu came, Sefukuji Castle immediately strengthened its defenses, and the castle was heavily guarded above and below the castle, and the people of the castle town had already fled in the recent cage battle, and there were less than five or six hundred people left in Sefukuji Castle.

It is rumored that the number of Date troops is as high as more than 200,000, and there are tens of thousands of people who captured Dazaifu, and with 500 people to resist tens of thousands of enemies, even if they are given ten courages, they can't believe that they can still hold the ruined Sefukuji Castle.

Shao Erdong was still slumped in the chief, his tired face was full of sadness, he glanced at the retainers who came in one after another, all of them lacked energy, and they didn't have much strength to lift their feet and move, and said in a trembling voice: "How can this battle be fought?" ”

Shao Erdong Shang originally had expectations for Otomo Yoshijin and Toji Michiyuki, but who knew that Date Taimasa was so decisive that he personally led 200,000 troops across the sea, which greatly surprised him.

Originally, Shao Erdong still intended to surrender to the Date family, but the snow was too ruthless, and he was looking at each other from afar on the surface, and secretly there was a hint of warning, which was the reason why he hesitated and hesitated.

Shao Erdong Shang originally thought that if the Date army attacked the Great Friendly Army first, and then there was no constraint of the Great Friendly Army, he could immediately submit a letter to the Date Army to surrender, who would have thought that the Date Army would not fight the Great Friendship but would attack Shifuji Castle first, and also besieged the city to send reinforcements.

Knowing that the horse farm Jianzhou reported the report, Shao Erdong was still panicked and had already run out of ideas. He hurriedly looked at Kamiyo Katsuri, Egami Takeshi, Izumo Yoritsu, and Baba Kenshu, hoping that they would be able to help him get through the immediate crisis.

The always strong Kamiyo Victory also had no idea, he originally wanted to delay the enemy army by clearing the wilderness, but he thought that the cage battle that had just passed had already exhausted the grain reserves in the territory, and the people of the castle town had fled, and the land was barren. In addition, the Date army brought its own military rations and wanted to clear the wilderness, and the order of the Shaoji clan was afraid that Fukuji Castle would not be able to go outside, and the victory of the god said stiffly: "Do you send a letter of help to the big friendly army on the other side, asking them to send troops to rescue?" ”

Even he couldn't believe the words of the victory of the gods, and it was even more difficult to convince Shao Er Dongshang, who looked at the Jiang Shang martial arts, and the Jiang Shang martial arts ability was mediocre, but the famous knife "Small Chest Cut" that had been passed down from generation to generation by the Jiang Shang family was famous all over the world, and he bowed his head and pretended not to know.

Shao Er Dongshang looked at Izumo Laitong, who was also silent, and finally had to look at Ma Chang Jian Zhou, Ma Chang Jian Zhou looked at the gloomy crowd, his face was also very ugly, he didn't expect that Shao Er Jun and his ministers were timid at least, since he was so timid, why didn't he surrender early.

Horse Farm Jianzhou looked at Shao Er Dongshang, and said slowly: "The advance troops of the Date army arrived at Dazaifu are 15,000 people, plus the people of Chikuzen and Hizen countries, the number is more than 25,000, and the soldiers and horses are abundant, this is still the advance army, and there are 60,000 or 70,000 horses in the follow-up. The small soldiers in the castle of Shifuji Temple, how can it be stopped? Some people say that they asked for help from the Otomo family, and you must know that Date Taimasa personally conquered Kyushu and led 250,000 troops, and the main purpose was to conquer the enemy Otomo Yoshitown. Now that the Otomo family is unable to protect itself, how can they lend a helping hand to adults? ”

Shao Erdong still asked anxiously, "What should I do?" ”

Machang Jianzhou looked at Shao Er Dongshang, and said loudly: "If you want to find a way to survive, the only way to save yourself is to save yourself, now that the Shao Er clan is in danger, the Date army is coming out of the twilight, once the city is besieged, even if you want to open the city and surrender, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the adults to live?" ”

Shao Er Dongshang said "ah", grabbed the sleeve of the horse farm Jianzhou and begged: "The horse farm, what is the way to live?" ”

Baba Jianzhou knew that Shao Erdong Shang was a person who cherished his life, and if it sounded good, it was a life, and if it was unpleasant, he was cowardly, so he raised his head and said: "Immediately open the city and surrender, tie yourself up and ask for help, and ask the Date Army for help, as a famous nobleman of the Muto clan, there is great hope for survival." ”

Ma Chang Jianzhou said that he could live, but did not mention whether the Shao Er clan could protect the territory. After he said this, he didn't say more, he dared to go into the city to admonish enough to show his loyalty, as long as Shao Erdongshang surrendered, these servants could also follow the situation.

Shao Erdong is still a little less courageous, but he is not stupid, and he also understands that now surrendering to the capital crime can avoid the living crime and is unforgivable, and the Zhenxi General's Mansion created by the first generation of Shao Erzi Lai may be difficult to preserve, and he hesitates again.

The god of victory cried out in sorrow: "Lord, come down! ”

Egami Takeshi and Izumo Yoritsu are also in line with the words: "Lord, keep the green mountains and don't be afraid of no firewood, as long as you keep your useful body, the Muto clan will not be cut off, and there may be a chance to make a comeback in the future." ”

There are no reinforcements outside, no defense inside, how can such a city be kept?!

Shao Erdong sat down on the ground and muttered, "That's it! That's it! Then you will submit the letter of surrender to the house of Date on my behalf, and if you want to bear the guilt of petitioning, you will bear the guilt of petitioning, and you will do whatever you want. As he spoke, he sat down dejectedly, without saying a word, his eyes were blank, and he stared blankly ahead.
