Kojima Uemon's arrow didn't hit Yuzu Katsunao, but it was already indicative of his attitude.

You didn't say much, and immediately turned the horse's head and returned to the formation.

Ueda Nobukata immediately said: "Father-in-law, let's go out, I'll let Yilong open the way for you." ”

Iwashita Ryu immediately led the Iron Artillery Team out of the ranks.

Yuzu Motozhi nodded, brandished his saber, and shouted, "Forward!" ”

Youzu Katsunao immediately dismounted, and commanded the first row of Ashigaru to move forward, and behind Youzu Katsunao was the iron artillery team led by Ryu Iwasita, followed by the bow ashigaru led by Masanao Youzu.

Iwasita Ryu had already seen the power of iron cannons, and in his opinion, such a humble fortress might be captured with just one round of iron cannons.

Within range of the defenders of the castle, a flurry of arrows was fired from the city, no more than fifty, causing negligible casualties.

Masanao Tsuzu immediately ordered his own Bowshigaru to begin a counterattack, while Tsutsu Katsunao and Ryu Iwasita continued their march.

Thirty paces later, Iwashita Ryu immediately ordered the iron artillery team to shoot in two rows.

"Bang bang bang..."

A thunderous sound rang out, sawdust flew from the beating of the castle, and Ashigaru who was hiding behind the fence suffered casualties, and the wounded soldiers who did not die wailed.

The peasants and soldiers, who had never seen the iron cannon, were frightened, and they shouted, "Demon law! The enemy army will use magic methods, run! ”

"This is the heavenly punishment, the heavenly punishment of the Buddha!"

"Run, this is God punishing us against Master Youjin, we can't hold it!"

Kojima Uemon had heard of the iron cannon, but he didn't know that it was so powerful, and when he heard the chaos among the peasants and soldiers behind him, he hurriedly shouted, "Don't be afraid, it's a new weapon!"

The opponent can only shoot once, get back to your position! Kibei, don't be in a daze, let those miscellaneous soldiers come back! ”

Ashigaru, named Kibei, hurriedly got up and went to teach the frightened miscellaneous soldiers.

However, after a while, another round of gunfire rang out, and there were casualties in the city again, and most of the peasants and soldiers who had managed to stabilize directly fried the pot.

Kojima Uemon's hoarse shouts didn't work either.

You immediately shouted: "Listen to the soldiers in the city, capture the leaders of the enemy who resist, and you will be killed!" ”

After waiting for a while, the gate of Youzu Castle was wide open, and dozens of ashigaru people came out in clusters, and the person who was holding the head of Kojima Uemon in his hand was in his hand.

Kojima Uemon's face was full of anger and unwillingness.

Ueda Nobukata and Yuzu Motonao entered the castle at a small price of two casualties.

This was originally the residence of the Youzu family, and there was no castle building, but it was just a camp house.

However, after the Takeda family occupied the area, Kojima Uemon led the construction of a castle, and the theme building was the original Yuzu Residence.

You Jinyuan looked directly at his residence, a little like a world away, even though he had only been away from here for eight or nine years.

In the castle, anyone who was from the Takeda family was identified, and Ueda Nobukata handed them over to Oi Sadakei and Taguchi Nagakei to deal with.

Oi Sadakei and Taguchi Nagakei happily grabbed these people to vent their anger.

In the Ohiro room, Ueda Nobukata said to Youzu Motozhi: "Father-in-law, now that Youzu Township is back in your hands, it is also a gratifying and congratulatory event.

Now this matter is not in the ears of Takeda Harunobu for the time being, we still have a few months, and by next spring, Youzu Township will be in danger.

When the time comes, please ask my father-in-law not to dwell on the momentary gains and losses, and come to Matsuo Castle, at that time, I am ready to start attacking Saku-gun. ”

Yuzu Motonao was a little surprised: "Will you attack Saku-gun next year?" Where did you get so many troops? ”

Ueda Nobukata smiled: "Hahaha, this father-in-law doesn't need to worry, in short, I am confident that I will take Kitasaku-gun when the time comes."

As for Minamisaku-gun, the three Hiraga clans, the Aiki clan, and the Kurosawa clan all belong to the Takeda clan, so I'm afraid it will take a little more time. ”

Seeing that Ueda Nobukata didn't say much, he didn't ask much, and said directly: "Nobukata, then you tell me in advance when the time comes, and I will lead troops to support." ”

Ueda Nobukata pretended to be surprised and said, "Ahhhh ”

After a few people exchanged pleasantries for a while, Ueda Nobukata left Youzu Motonao and Youzu Masanao and left with Youzu Katsunao.

You Tsu Yuan looked straight at Ueda Nobukata and took You Tsutsu straight away, frowned and said: "This person's heart is unfathomable, and he is very thin and cold, he is simply the second Qingxin Gong, and he is bitter." ”

Youjin Masazhi was shocked and said, "Father, is this why the eldest brother went to be a hostage?" ”

You Jinyuan nodded slowly: "Yes, I don't know if the old man's step is right or wrong." ”

Youzu Masaa was stunned, he didn't expect that his father would take refuge in Ueda Nobukata without thinking about it at all, and he was a little depressed in his heart.

I even want to secretly betray the news to see if I can regain my favorability from Takeda Harunobu.

However, remembering that his brother and sister were still in the hands of Ueda Nobukata, he also died down.

Ueda Nobukata led more than 1,000 troops back to Matsuo Castle, and after arranging for the Sakudai people, he was ready to go to Katsuo Castle to report on his duties.

Ueda Nobukata called Sanada Yutaka and said, "Matsuo Castle is handed over to you for the time being, and I will go to Katsuo Castle to report to the lord." At the same time, the reward of Matsuo Castle was determined, as well as the issue of Sanada Township. ”

Sanada Yutaka didn't say anything, just paused: "I hope everything goes well with the lord." ”

Ueda Nobukata left Matsuo Castle with more than a hundred men, leaving only the Sakushi and Sanada clans in the castle.

When Ueda Nobukata arrived at Katsubi Castle, it was snowing, and Ueda Nobukata reached out to catch the falling snow and said with a smile: "Ha, the most missing time is also in place, and I will shine even more brightly next year." ”

Yazaki Heizou smiled, "Ueda is the pillar of the family, and the main guild is relying on you more and more. ”

Ueda Nobukata just smiled and entered Matsuo Castle.

When they arrived at Katsuo Castle, it was already dark, and Ueda Nobukata had met Murakami Yoshikiyoshi the next morning.

Ueda Nobukata bowed and said, "My lord, my subordinates have fulfilled their mission and have taken Matsuo Castle and captured Youzu Township. ”

Murakami Yoshikiyoshi was depressed for several days, and when he led the main force of his family to support Ogasawara Cho, he intimidated the Nishina family, but now it is snowing and the war is suspended.

However, at home, Suda Mankoku failed to capture Fukushima Castle, and Yashiro Masakuni did not take Terao Castle. They came to complain several times.

Murakami Yoshikiyoshi was overjoyed and said: "Nobukata, you did a good job, compared to Suda and Yayo, you really didn't disappoint me." From today on, you will be the lord of Matsuo Castle, and the surrounding 800 territories will be yours.

How did you deal with the Sanada clan in Matsuo Castle? ”

Ueda Nobukata paused for a moment and said, "The subordinates accepted Sanada Yutaka as a retainer. ”

When Murakami Yoshikiyo heard this, he frowned.
