Warring States Eagle

At this time, it was Irita Yoshimi (Irita Masaki's son-in-law) who hurried out from Tsuga Murei Castle in the evening and was rushing to Oka Castle.

At this afternoon, Irita Yoshimi received a request letter from Okajo about going to Takajo to rescue Shiga, and when he was hesitating, he suddenly saw thick smoke rising from the direction of Takajo.His heart was also greatly shaken.

You must know that the Luo family's army suddenly invaded from the border yesterday, and it is only the second day of the Luo family's invasion, but the Yuwang family has surrendered, and now the Luo family has crossed the Ono River and reached the east bank, and even The fighting power of the Luo family's army was really astonishing, forcing the tall and strong Gaocheng to the point of being about to fall.

Reminiscent of the loud iron cannon of Luo's family that the inspector of the family saw this morning in the afternoon, he suddenly felt a chill rise from his back.He also knew about this iron cannon.At the beginning, he followed his father, Irita, and witnessed the trial of several iron cannons purchased by Otomo's family from the southern barbarians.It seems that although the trial steps are complicated, the power is amazing.If you attack after forming a scale, the power will be even more terrifying.And now that Luo's family happened to have such a large-scale iron cannon team, it was really enviable and frightening.

Thinking of the sound of iron cannons that came from a distance from time to time throughout the afternoon, he felt frightened.In any case, at this time he is still a young man who has just entered the Yuan Dynasty, and his father, who has always been the master of the family, is not there. He is already a little stuck in the city walled and waiting for his father to come back before making a decision.It's just that once Gaocheng falls, the closest to Gaocheng is his own city and Gangcheng, even if he wants to delay it, he can't delay it.So he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

Think before and after.He finally led a part of the army to Gangcheng in the evening.It was already the second day of the Luo family's invasion.After urgent recruitment.At this time, the Ishigami family had already organized an army of less than 600 people. Obviously, these troops alone could not go to Takashi for support, so he planned to rush to Oka Castle first, join the Kitashiga family there, and then Then contact the wealthy families such as the Tenmanda family and the Luci family who are also mobilizing their forces in the lower reaches of the Ono River, and prepare to unite and rush to Gaocheng.As for whether Shiga's relatives in Gaocheng can persist until the arrival of reinforcements, he can only rely on himself.

Masanobu Kosaka was startled when he learned that the people coming from outside the city were from the army of the family entering the city.Then suddenly surprised.This is really a big fish delivered to your door.

He first pretended to confirm the identity of the other party, and after a while, he asked Rutian Qinyi to actually bring a dozen of his cronies into the city, and after confirming that he was innocent, he then put the troops outside the city into the city.

Yoshimi Irita, who was inexperienced himself, didn't think much about it, and the retainers were not alert at this time, so a group of people like fools entered the city with only a dozen cronies, and after the city gate was closed, they were instantly captured by the Luo family. The army was surrounded.At this time, Irita Yoshimi realized that he had been deceived.In the end, he had to surrender obediently.

The army waiting outside the city to enter the city also heard a burst of scolding suddenly sounded in the city.It's just that the scolding stopped soon.Afterwards, Irita Yoshimi appeared on the city wall.And ordered the soldiers under his command to enter the city in batches.

The soldiers who entered the city did not resist, and began to go to the city in batches.It's just that they felt that the young master's voice was a little hoarse.Isn't the weather too cold tonight?Why is the young master so cold that his voice is hoarse?They even stand so "closely" with the guards in the opponent's city. Is this mutual warmth?

In this way, batch after batch of soldiers entering the city entered the city of Gang, and every time they entered, there would always be a few screams from inside.As time went on, when half of the troops entering the city had already entered the city, the troops outside the city finally realized something was wrong.Why do the city gates always close in time after each batch enters?Immediately afterwards, there will be screams from the audience?Even a fool can see that there is something wrong here?So the army outside the city strongly demanded that the young master, Irita Yoshishi, come out alone and explain to them alone.

Kosaka Masanobu had no choice but to grit his teeth, and personally "accompanied" Irita Yoshimi to the outside of the city to face the army outside the city alone.After a thrilling conversation, the Irita family army outside the city entered the city with Kosaka Masanobu.The moment the city gate was closed, a large number of Luo's family troops emerged, and after another hard fight, they finally subdued all the troops of the Irita family.Masanobu Kosaka also broke out in a cold sweat afterwards, if he hadn't been unlucky today, he probably would have died without a whole body.

Irita Yoshimi brought an army of nearly 400 people this time, and in the main city of the Irita family, there were only more than a hundred guards left at this time. Requesting to send someone to receive Okajo and the captives captured tonight. On the one hand, he immediately escorted Irita Yoshimi to Tsuga Murei Castle overnight. After using Irita Yoshimi to deceive the city gate, he took Tsuga Murei Castle down in one fell swoop. So far, the Irita family has been controlled by the Luo family, poor Irita Masaki, at this moment he is still on the way home.

After learning of Kosaka Masanobu's victory that night, Zhengliang was also very pleasantly surprised.So he quickly sent a logistics team to Okajo to support Kosaka Masanobu overnight.

On the second day, Masanobu Takasaka used Irita Yoshimi to discuss strategies to deal with the invasion of the Luo family to introduce the local wealthy Aso Shaohe and Anan Weixiu into Okajo, and then captured them in one fell swoop.Finally forced these powerful families to surrender.So within a day, all the noble families on the east bank of the upper reaches of the Ono River, except Shiga Qindu who was still sticking to Gaocheng, were all under the control of the Luo family.

"Haha, how is it? It's not far from the day you bet with me." Zheng Liang said with a smile standing on a hill not far outside Gaocheng City.

"Oh!" The person standing beside Zheng Liang could only smile wryly and shake his head.He couldn't imagine that on the third day after Luo Shizhengliang led the army into Bungo country and entered the southwestern region of the army, these wealthy families were completely defeated.

"Hahaha, don't forget the bet between you and me. When our family enters Oita County, it will be the time when your family surrenders to our family." Zheng Liang looked at Yoshimi Irita and others who were escorted not far from Takajo man, said with a laugh.Perhaps at this time, Shiga's relatives in the city have completely despaired.

"Report, my lord, I am fortunate to bring a samurai to see you." At this moment, Zongzhan, surnamed Shenwu, hurried over to report.

"Xingsuke? He's not in Kishigake Mountain City to be his successor, what is he doing here?" When he found out that the person seeking to see him was Xingsuke, Zheng Liang felt strange immediately.Among those who started following Masara at the foot of Nogo Mountain, Tsuda Hiromune and Hirasa Taro died in the Battle of Kishigake Castle; the leader of the Black Eagle, Yi Ruo, retired to train ninjas behind the scenes after being disabled to protect Zheng Liang. Nuo Ze also died in battle; Chujiro, Yubei, and Shinsuke retired respectively, and at this time they became important craftsmen in the Luo family workshop; Onishi Kuni was killed because of the failure of the rebellion, and he did not even have a family blood Leave.Some of the Ye Gaoshan soldiers who followed Zheng Liang died in battle, but their families became the most cared for members of the Luo family's territory. Those who survived also retired from the army and became members of the territory. General management officer.

Now Masara is left with Togo Heiji and Kosuke, two old people from back then.Togo Heiji, a member of the family, is now Yubitou of the Luo family, the chief elder, and he is in power as the cabinet of the Luo family. At the same time, he is also the guardian of Hizen confirmed by the shogunate, responsible for all internal affairs in the territory for Masara.And Xingzhu, who is also a member of the family, is due to limited ability. Although he is also a general of his own family, he can only be the acting city lord of the family's governor of the city.

Normally, as the acting city lord, he has to manage a lot of things, but today he rarely came to a place far away in Bungo to ask Zheng Liang, which surprised Zheng Liang.

Soon, Xingsuke, who was allowed, walked in with another person quickly. After the two saluted Masara, the leader, Xingsuke, apologized to Masara with a dejected expression:

"My lord, Mihime and Nohime are missing."

"Nani?" (To be continued...)
