Chapter 800: Connecting Several Cities (2)

In addition to the two teams mentioned above, the third team is disguised as a pursuer. This group of pursuers should appear at the right time in the rear of the first two teams pretending to be routs, and then after the "rout" enters Iizuka Castle, they will chase them exactly outside the city, and take Iizuka Castle in cooperation with the "rout" in the city.

The last group of soldiers was only a dozen or so, and they were responsible for staying in the mountains and forests to guard the dozens of captives of the Fulai family who had no effect on the attack on Iizuka Castle. In fact, this time, the alliance between the Fuguilai family and the Tahara family, which totaled more than 400 people, finally left only a hundred people who were willing to surrender to the Luo family without playing cards, and the remaining more than 300 allied soldiers were either killed in the battle or killed after becoming prisoners after the war. Although this is a bit cruel, but this is war after all, in order to avoid accidents, Murakami Takeshi even ordered the execution of those wounded prisoners as well.

It was also the ruthless behavior of the Luo family that suddenly frightened the many prisoners who had surrendered to the Luo family, even if they were mixed with the "rout" pretended to be by the Luo family's army at this time, they also felt that their legs were a little weak.

With the exchange between these captives and the soldiers defending Iizuka Castle, and seeing the embarrassed appearance of these "routs" and the wounded on their backs, the soldiers defending the city have determined that the people who are approaching are the same as their own army that set off in the morning, and where would they imagine that this group of people are wolves in sheep's clothing?

"Quick, open the gates and let the people in." A ashigaru at Otemon said immediately. Immediately, the big door was opened from the inside by the guards with a "squeak".

"Kill!" Just as the "rout" was about to arrive at the Otemen, there was a shout of killing behind him.

"Not good, get into town. The ambushes came after them. "Someone in the 'rout' immediately shouted.

And those defenders of Iizuka Castle originally planned to carefully examine the appearance of this group of "routs" before entering the city. But no less than 400 pursuers appeared behind him. Immediately, he dodged into the city and hidden. There is also the need to scrutinize this "rout" who have fled and returned.

In this way, with the cooperation of the two Luo family forces, the army that pretended to be a "rout" was able to enter the city smoothly.

As soon as he entered the Otemen Gate of Iizuka Castle, Takeshi Murakami, who was mixed in the crowd, immediately showed a cruel smile, and suddenly raised the sword in his hand and slashed directly at a Tahara family guard soldier beside him.

The soldier was glad that he was able to hide in the city before closing the gates, and he thought that the people around him would suddenly attack him, and when he saw the glittering sword in Murakami's hand slashing in front of him, he was immediately frightened. "Ahh exclaimed.

It's just that this is already the last voice he has shouted in his life, and with the flash of Murakami Takeyoshi's sword, his head is thrown directly into the air. Then it smashed into the body of a soldier guarding the city two outside the side.

"Kill!" Murakami Takeshi let out a loud shout.

"Kill!" The Luo family's army, pretending to be a "rout", immediately slashed at the guards around them after hearing the signal from Murakami Buji. The surrounding guards of the Tahara family were originally focused on the enemy troops who were rapidly approaching outside, and they didn't expect the people around them to suddenly attack, so they were killed one after another. Immediately, the Oteemon Gate of Iizuka Castle was opened again. Another Luo family army that had already killed outside the city took advantage of the situation.

At this time, Tahara Kihiro, the defender of the castle, received a report from his own samurai, and learned that an unknown army was outside the castle, and that the 200 reinforcements sent by his family to Lumingyue Castle also seemed to have been ambushed and fled back to the castle with heavy casualties.

Tahara Kihiro, who was taken aback by the sudden news, immediately ordered all the people in the city to be mobilized to go to the city to fight the cage battle. But before his order could be heard from the City Lord's Mansion, his Mansion was surrounded by the Luo family's army. Completely severed the connection between the mansion and the other Tahara family forces in the city, and made the city army lose its command.

Then Murakami Takeyoshi, Wakabayashi Echigo Mamoru and others quickly killed at the gate on the other side of the city, and put the Luo family army of Uku Junding and Uto Xingxing, who had already blocked the outside of the city, into the city. At this time, the army of the Luo family that had entered Iizuka City already had more than 700 people.

Under the division and blow of more than 700 people to the Tahara family's army, the Tahara family's home city, Iizuka Castle, was finally conquered. The governor of the Tahara family and his two sons, Tahara Kinkan and Tahara Kingen, were all slaughtered by Murakami Takeyoshi's order. Murakami Takeshi got the nickname "butcher" because of this.

After taking the Tahara family's Iizuka Castle, Takeshi Murakami and the others paused in the city and quickly had lunch. Subsequently, Murakami Takeyoshi, Wakabayashi Echigo Mamoru and Uku Junding were led by the Fulai family, who had surrendered to the Luo family's captives, and quickly went to Fulai City, the residence of the Fulai family.

This morning's battle against Iizuka Castle must have been seen by the people near the city, and as time goes by, the wealthy clans such as the Fulai family and the Nai family near the Tahara family will definitely know that the Luo family has invaded the local area, so they will either prepare or go out to fight back. Therefore, according to the instructions given by Lord Gongzheng Liang before, before the wealthy families of the Otomo family can react, Murakami Takeyoshi and others must seize as many castles as possible.

And among the Naga family and the Fulai family, which are adjacent to the Tahara family, it is natural that the Fulai family, which has the cooperation of the captives, is easier to overcome. So Murakami Takeyoshi and others naturally chose to attack Fulai's house.

At dusk, Takeshi Murakami and others came to Fulai Home City, and successfully infiltrated the city with the same trick. After a fierce battle, at nightfall, Fulai City was finally taken. But to the surprise of Murakami Takeyoshi and others, the governor of the Fulai family, Fulai Jianzhong, disappeared. It is said that after infiltrating the city, everyone quickly blocked the exit of the two gates of Fulai City, and they really couldn't understand how Fulai Jianzhong escaped from the city. Letting Fu Lai Jianzhong escape like this is equivalent to giving the remnants of the Fu Lai family outside the city a spiritual pillar and commander to resist the Luo family, which is very unfavorable for the Luo family to quickly control the territory of the Fu Lai family.

Just when everyone was distressed by Fu Lai Jianzhong's escape, a person who surprised everyone stood up. directly pointed out the whereabouts of Fu Lai Jianzhong for everyone. (To be continued......)
