The name of Tanba Province as the Land of Mountains is not in vain, and foreign forces who want to invade Tanba Country have to deal with layers of checkpoints to enter Tanba Country, which is the true origin of why Tanba Country is called the Land of Mountains.

If it is upright, it will have to be beaten one level at a time, which is an impossible task for any foreign force in a short period of time, and it is definitely a difficult thing for Iga Kutaka to rush from Noda Castle to Kuroi Castle in half a day.

However, Iga Kutaka obviously doesn't have to deal with overlapping levels, and the team of 800 people is already a sideways army in Tanba Province, you must know that although Tanba Country is much less than the internal forces of Ise Province, which is known as a "small warring state", except for a few big forces that can make up a team of thousands of people, most of the other local forces can make up three or four hundred people, which is already quite a powerful force.

A heavily armed army of 800 people appeared in the country of Tanbo, first of all, it will be probed from afar, and then close the door and wait to leave, this is what countless small and medium-sized forces will do, no one is easy, no one will be a villain for others, since it is not to deal with themselves, it is better to close the door and hold hands to have children.

The night was like ink, walking between the mountains and mountains of Tanba country, there was no light around, except for the torch in his hand that chilled the ground around a little, so that the team would not take the wrong fork, and more than ten guides sent by Tozawa Baiyunzhai also played a huge role.

Marching at night was inherently risky. The starting point for Iga Kutaka's decision to march at night was to be able to fight a beautiful surprise battle, which had to be fought beautifully, since it had to be a one-shot attack that would have a major impact on the country, and to boost morale with victory, and then to be able to continue the effort. Keep fighting.

In addition to creating significant influence and boosting morale, Iga Kutaka's most important idea was to get the attention of Date Masaki, so that Date Masaki would think that he was also a general, and that his most important purpose was to gain a place in the future Fujiwara regime.

Night raid is a tactic of both risk and opportunity, the greater the risk, the greater the opportunity, during the march Iga Kutaka guarded against the surrounding castle attacks, and the same large and small castles were also worried about Iga Kutaka's surprise attack.

Iga Kutaka was lucky that no one came forward to raid his team. The idea that the well water does not violate the river water and the dead friends do not die and the poor road makes the nearby Chinese and local tyrants close the city gates. Peek as the team weaves across their territory.

At the same time, Iga Kutaka had decided early on to march at night, and he had chosen his soldiers from this aspect, and at least more than half of the 800 men under his command had experience in marching at night, and none of them were left behind with the help of each other.

Fortunately, Tanba Province is already an important area outside of Gogi, and most of the crops such as radishes are planted between the valleys, but it is not rugged. A group of soldiers marched slowly under the leadership of Iga Kutaka.

Iga Histaka was at the forefront, with peaks on either side of the valley blocking most of the night sky. He could only see a long strip of night, but fortunately the torch made him feel a little more at ease, and he asked a guide not far away, "How far is it from Kuroi Castle?" ”

The so-called guides are actually night thieves who wander on the border between Harima and Tanba countries. The border areas are generally chaotic areas, controlled by night bandits, ronin, and some other local organizations, and are not subject to the discipline of nearby lords, such as the current Honganji Temple, who eats and drinks spicy bee Suka Koroku, who is active in the area of Mino and Owari on the border. Tozawa Hakusai was under the orders of Masahiro Yoshida and Fumigo Ishimatsu a few years ago. Begin to consciously gather these people for their own use.

The guide, who was once a small wealthy family in Tamba, fled to the border and became the leader of a bandit group of more than ten men after his family was destroyed, and he replied respectfully: "If you look at the mountain in front of you, you can see Asahi Castle, and Asahi Castle is the residence of Akai Naomasa. Asahi Castle is a branch of Kuroi Castle, and the two castles are not far apart. ”

Iga Kutaka didn't expect that a thief he despised would be coherent in his words, so he smiled and said, "I see? While you still have some time, tell me about this Akai Naomasa's reputation in Tanba? ”

The old guide was stunned for a moment, and he replied respectfully again: "Akai Naomasa should actually be called Ogino Naomasa, the Akai clan is the division of the Ogino clan, and it is the strongest force among the eighteen groups of Ogino. ”

Iga Kutaka breathed sluggishly, his heart was slightly angry, and he clenched his fists, he was originally a retainer of the Matsuda family, and he was also a representative of the lower Katsugami, and his face was slightly gloomy when he heard the words of the old guide, but he was not angry, but he had no interest in talking.

When I climbed over the hill, I saw a castle built on a hill blocking the way forward, and I could vaguely see the hazy and dim lights swaying in the darkness, all of which came from the lights of Asahi Castle, and from a distance it looked like a monster lying across the road.

The Iga soldiers lurked among the mountains, resting and eating and drinking enough to regain their strength.

Iga Jiulong looked at the sparse starry sky in the sky, calculated the current time, and made him forget how much time had passed on the road, he wanted to know how long it was until the night passed, looked at the sky and calculated, and muttered: "Ugly Mo Yin, okay, find out the situation first and then raid, it should be too late." ”

Omori Shengzhong, who came in a hurry, suddenly leaned over, his voice was full of nervousness, and said, "Lord, the situation is not right!" "Iga Kutaka commanded two major generals Iga Xuanxian and Omori Moritada, Iga Xuanxian led the remaining more than 2,000 people as a response, and Omori Moritada followed his side to assist.

"What's wrong?" In Iga Kutaka's memory, the always bold Omori Mori rarely had a trembling voice, and he was not so nervous when he was expelled from the Matsuda clan in the uprising, and a sense of foreboding appeared in his heart, and he said, "Could it be ...... Yaga! ”

Iga stopped abruptly in the middle of his sentence. Instead, he let out a curse. On the other side of the mountain, you can faintly see clusters of black shadows like ghosts coming out of nowhere, and countless broken footsteps are connected in a few breaths.

The shadows in the mountains are full of shadows, and the sound of small fragments is constantly coming. Fortunately, Iga Kutaka and the others had already turned off the lights, and at the same time, they didn't dare to make a sound, he didn't know how many people had gathered. I don't know if they came to ambush them.

Omori asked in a low voice, "My lord, do you want to attack immediately?" His heart was full of nervousness and resentment, knowing that although their group was not fast, no one except his own knew that they would come, and a bad feeling flooded in his heart, whether it was betrayal.

Iga Histaka shook his head suddenly, and the same thought of doubt ran through his mind, but this thought was quickly thrown out of him, and he did not heed Omori Mori's advice. Instead, he went the other way and shouted: "All are hidden, and you are not allowed to raise your head." ”

At the same time, Iga Kutaka expressed his doubts and said, "I don't think it's like they came to ambush us, it's more likely that it's just in time, knowing that if they come out an hour late, they will be able to catch us off guard when they raid." ”

Omori Mori: "This! His heart seemed to be relieved for a moment, and he nodded. That's true, you know, it's almost getting dark. At that time, it will inevitably surprise Akai Naomasa's military formation, and if it suddenly attacks from behind during the raid, it will inevitably collapse under the front and rear attacks, is it really a coincidence.

Iga clenched his fists and said, "See what they want?" ”

Sure enough, just as Iga Kutaka expected, he was just in time. After a period of fear, the team marched from the side of the mountain towards Asahi Castle, where night and day intersected, and the sky was still dotted with the deep blue of the stars, but the east was already a magnificent purple color. And gradually the red light in the sky was fainted.

In the stunned gaze of Iga Kutaka, the originally imposing attack team of thousands of people outside Asahi Castle had just frightened Iga Hissataka and the others to tremble, but now they were stunned and collapsed under the attack of an ambush of two or three hundred people in a short period of time.

Omori Shengzhong's face also showed a trace of consternation, and there was some contempt in the consternation, I don't know if it was the indiscretion of despising this group of people or the cowardice just now, I think he was more despising others, he pointed to the defeated queue and said: "Damn! "Thousands of words turned into one word, by the way, in fact, it was all his heart.

Iga Kutaka's face was also blue and white, and he opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn't say anything, and he could see the broken queue on the battlefield, and the team that rushed to kill like a wolf and a tiger, and both teams had the same banner on their heads.

The old guide, who embarrassed Iga Kutaka, unknowingly appeared where he was supposed to be, explaining to the group the origin of the two teams below, he was just a narrator to a big show, and the guide explained: "It should be the people of Kuroi Castle who are defeated below, and it is the people of Akai Naomasa who are attacking." ”

Ogino Akikiyo of Kuroi Castle didn't know what was going on and what was wrong, so he went out to attack Asahi Castle, apparently he didn't succeed, and was cleanly wrapped dumplings by Akai Naomasa of Asahi Castle, and fled all over the mountains.

Omori Shengzhong listened to the narration of the old guide and hurriedly asked, "Do you want to attack immediately and catch them off guard?" ”

Iga Jiulong shook his head slightly, and the corners of his mouth showed a hint of ridicule: "Don't worry, although the side of Kuroi City has been defeated, it has not been completely wiped out, once the attack is now, there will be a chance for them to gather the remnants, and it will be unclear after the battle." ”

The Ogino people were defeated from the beginning, and it didn't take much time to complete the change, and they turned into fleeing, especially after the arrival of the defenders of Asahi Castle and another ambush, which reached its peak, a team of more than 100 people fled in front in disarray, and a team of thousands of people surrounded and suppressed.

Iga Hisakashi pointed to the current battlefield situation and said: "If you just attack, there is a great possibility that you will be forced to fight a cage battle, and it is possible to win a battle between the two, and now the whole army of Akai Naomasa is attacking, and there will be no more than 100 people in Asahi Castle at most, and there are still more than 100 people left on the side of Kuroi Castle, and if the Kuroi Castle side wants to escape back to Kuroi Castle, it will inevitably be surrounded, tell everyone, prepare to attack, act quickly, and must drive Akai Naomasa's army to the direction of Kuroi Castle, and not let them return to Asahi City." Omori Moritada, you lead fifty people to monitor Asahi Castle and protect the back road. ”

Omori Moritada admired Iga Kutaka's resourcefulness so much that the fighter plane changed rapidly, and now was indeed the best time.

Without waiting for Omori Moritada's praise, Iga Kutaka propped himself up, stood on the top of the hill, drew his sword, pointed at the Akai people in the pursuit battle, and shouted: "Pull up the flag of the Iga family, and then rush with me!" As he spoke, he rushed forward along the mountain road and killed him.

The battle broke out fiercely again, and Naoyuki Yamaguchi, the acting general of the Akai people, looked back, and the flags behind him were waving, and the soldiers were as dense as ants, and the people and flags seemed to have filled the entire valley. But if you count carefully, the number of men and horses is actually only seven or eight hundred.

Naoyuki Yamaguchi's face instantly turned from red to pale, and the scene in front of him made his soul fly, and the only remaining bit of luck was shattered in an instant, he knew that his defeat was decided, and the change in his mood from heaven to hell in an hour made his face change suddenly.

Where did Iga Kutaka pay attention to Yamaguchi Naoyuki's question, he shouted loudly: "The Iga clan under the command of the Fujiwara clan's Date Dazai Daiji Hall has joined the war, rush with me, and kill them all!" As he spoke, he waved the knife in his hand, and with one sword, he beheaded a soldier who looked back in shock, his head detached, and blood spurted.

The soldiers shouted loudly: "Kill! "Swarmed up, snatched knives at the same time, bloody killing, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of people fell to the ground, stepping on the corpses and rushing up, like a group of devils brandishing knives and guns to kill, blood flowing.

Naoyuki Yamaguchi witnessed this amazing scene, his mind suddenly went blank, and the strong sense of suffocation made him smell the breath of death, his head seemed to be about to leave him, his legs were already trembling, and for a while it seemed that the space was silent, only to see the Iga people wielding knives to kill.

Naoyuki Yamaguchi was desperate, and looked at the Iga people who rushed over in a daze. Iga Gruntled and walked between blood and swords and guns, blood dripping from the swords, and he walked straight towards the mountain pass, his eyes full of killing.

Iga Kutaka's knife landed in front of Yamaguchi's neck, and Yamaguchi Naoyuki woke up from a dream and muttered, "Don't. These were his last words, and then he saw his body fall to the ground with a bang, his head fluttering in the wind, and his eyes were pitch black and he didn't feel anything.
