"Look at the guns!"

"Eat me a stick!"

As the two riders approached, each shouted his own harsh words.

At that moment, the two intersected, and the sound of "bell" sounded, and Yasuei Shimizu's iron rod made contact with Araki Murashige's spear and crossed over.

"Oh! It's all sparkling! ”

On the hillside, in the main camp of the Ogasawara army, a group of generals exclaimed, and even Yoshicho stood up and reached out to pick up the one-eyed lookout.

This is a monocular that Yoshinaga bought from the Nanban people at Tennoji House a long time ago.

Through the binoculars, Yoshicho saw Yasuei Shimizu and Arakimura staggering by, and neither of them was injured.

Shimizu Yasuei turned the horse's head and looked at Araki Murashige, he felt that the force, it was stronger than Shihe Yicun, he raised his stick and shouted: "Yes, it's enjoyable, the kid is eating my stick!" ”

Arakimurashige, who turned the horse's head, let go of his hand, stretched his palm, and felt a little more comfortable, this time he had some understanding of Shimizu Yasuei's strength, and in terms of strength, that weapon had an advantage.

He raised the ten-word gun and shouted: "Let's stop here!" ”

"Drive!"

The two quickly approached again, and Shimizu Yasuei swept over when he was close to Araki Murashige, who didn't care about it, just stretched out his gun and stabbed it.

Qing Shui Yasui immediately changed, the sweeping big iron rod stopped instantly, he grabbed the stick in his hand and sent it up, and the hand that pushed the stick quickly touched the bottom of the stick and sent it again.

This speed is very fast, the lightning and flint are completed, the stick head hits the head of the gun that Araki Village stabbed over, and the two weapons collide together, this time it is a "ding...", clear and long, like the sound of the golden chime, and it will never rise, and the residual sound will sink far away, and it will be slowly exhausted.

The two failed to stagger at this time, and were directly entangled together. This is also the original intention of Araki Murashige.

Without the acceleration of the war horse, the huge force that Arakimura bears is not as heavy as before.

Shimizu Yasuei looked at Araki Murashige and said, "It's really a hero from a young man, the old man hasn't seen a heroic boy like you for a long time." ”

Araki Murashige was very respectful of Yasuei Shimizu, and he replied, "It's also an honor to be able to fight with you Shimizu!" After all, you are a brave warrior who has defeated Ghost Shihe twice, and even if you can't defeat it, a tie is enough to make a name for yourself! ”

Qing Shui Kangying smiled: "Roar~ Young people are vigorous, then the old man has to see if you have that strength!" Look at the moves! ”

As soon as his voice fell, the direction of the stick's attack changed, and the lower stick attacked Araki Village's heavy abdomen.

Arakimura didn't have time to defend again, so he had to lean back with his whole body, and Yasuei Shimizu hit the air.

At this time, Yasuei Shimizu withdrew a section, and the stick was smashed downward, Araki Murashige hurriedly got up, and it was too late to play halfway, so he had to hold up the gun to block the stick.

Araki Murashige's posture was unfavorable, and he was suddenly beaten by Shimizu Yasuei's stick The blood was uneven, and he always felt that he had something in his throat.

He hurriedly held back, raised his left hand, let go of his right hand, and the iron rod fell towards the lower right side of Araki Murashige, smashing on the butt of Araki Murashige's horse.

The war horse suffered a blow, and was immediately stimulated, and rushed out directly, and Araki Village didn't have time to grasp it again, and the whole person fell off the horse.

Araki Murashige hurriedly got up and looked at Yasuei Shimizu on the horse with a gun.

Yasuei Shimizu also got down from the horse and said, "Young man, come and fight again!" ”

Arakimura Shigehei raised his spear and slowly approached Shimizu Yasuei, Shimizu Yasuei changed his breathing, suddenly exerted force under his feet, and used the iron rod as a spear, and hit the head of Arakimura's heavy gun, swinging away Arakimura's spearhead, and then raised his hand slightly, smashing towards Araki Village.

Araki Murashige is quite flexible, his steps change rapidly, his position changes rapidly, and he and Shimizu Yasuei become ninety degrees in the direction.

Araki Mura Shigeichi changed his position, and directly swept at Shimizu Yasuei, Shimizu Yasuei sent away his left hand, grabbed the iron rod with his right hand, and erected the iron rod to block the weapon that Araki Murashige swept in.

Arakimura immediately retreated as soon as he missed a blow, and then fought with Yasuei Shimizu in several moves, and neither side had to be cheap.

He originally wanted to rely on his youth to consume Shimizu Yasuei, but it turned out that Shimizu Yasuei was like no one else, and he felt that he could fight for a long time.

Arakimura took a few steps back and said, "Qing Shui Xiang, I was in a hurry to fight today, I didn't eat enough in the morning, and now I'm hungry, stay and eat and fight again!" After saying that, he retreated and ran away.

Shimizu Yasuei didn't pursue either, he chuckled, turned around and rode back to his war horse back into the military formation.

In the Ogasawara army formation, the soldiers raised their swords and guns and shouted.

A group of generals praised the returning Shimizu Yasuei for his bravery just now.

Even Yichang got up and said: "Kang Ying is really a fierce general, I'm afraid no one in the Miyoshi family can stop you!" ”

Qing Shui Kangying let out a breath and said: "Your subordinates are old after all, and if you fight for a while, your subordinates won't have so much strength." ”

Yichang had to raise his thumb and said, "Hey, I've been deceived by Kang Ying's calm appearance, it's really amazing!" ”

Who would think that Yasuei Shimizu was just a simple fierce general? Ginger is still old and spicy!

It is said that Arakimura ran back to Akutagawa Castle again, facing a group of military generals of the Miyoshi family who didn't seem to have a good face, as well as the lord of his own family: "It's not that I'm defeated, but in fact, I'm exhausted in the battle with Shimizuki, if Your Highness doesn't believe it, you can send troops to invite you to fight!" ”

Miyoshi Yoshiken walked up to Araki Murashige, leaned over and stared at Araki Murashige, who was half-kneeling on the ground, and said, "What do you think will happen to you if he fights!" ”

Arakimura's face did not change color, and he insisted: "Trust your own judgment in the next!" ”

Miyoshi Yoshiken immediately ordered his subordinates to send a military general out to invite the battle. Arakimura pricked up his ears and listened to the movement outside.

As a result, it was Inaba Ryotsu who played, not Yasuei Shimizu.

Arakimura secretly breathed a sigh of relief, to be honest, he had just had a gambling component, but he won.

Miyoshi Changqing said with a smile: "Okay, a hero is a young man, and being able to fight a draw with such a fierce general is enough to show your bravery, and you will get the reward you deserve." ”

Araki Murashige hurriedly thanked him, and then retreated.

Miyoshi Changqing smiled and said to the left and right: "Everyone, what else is there to worry about in this battle? Hahaha, rejoice! The three good families will definitely dominate the Quartet because of this battle! ”

"Oh!"

The day ended as the cheers of the retainers ended, and it was quiet after the battle between Ryotsu Inaba and Kenyoshi Sakamoto, Yoshiken Miyoshi's retainer.

Because Akutagawa Castle has a lot of troops, twice as many people as the rebel chief's army, but the Miyoshi family has no intention of going out of the city to fight, which makes Yoshicho have nothing to do for the time being.

In the next two days, Yoshinaga discussed the war with his retainers, and finally decided to wait for the arrival of Uesugi Masatora's army, and then he could divide his forces to attack Yamato and other places, and force the Miyoshi family to attack.

However, the arrival of a letter bankrupted Yoshicho's wishful thinking.

It's a secret letter, and it's urgent.

The content of the letter is simple, Hojo Shiyasu committed suicide.

Yoshicho's mind was stunned for a moment, Hojo Shiyasu committed suicide? Why did he commit suicide, could it be that Uesugi Kenmasa took advantage of the fact that Uesugi Masato sent troops to Kamiraku and forced him to death when Kasuga Mountain Castle was not there?

This is unlikely, Uesugi Kenmasa has already moved to Hirai Castle in Ueno, and the retainer left behind by Kasuga Yamajo Castle is Kasumi Keichi, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Uesugi.

During the Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima, Keichi served as the palace army in the Senkuma River formation, and fought fiercely with the Takeda Army Special Brigade that came down from Mt. Tsuma-me, so that the Takeda Army mistakenly thought that this temple army was Kenshin's own army.

Because of his outstanding performance in Kawanakajima, he left an account of "the general of Kenshin Secret Collection, Ganji Omi Moriya" and "the general of wisdom and courage" in the "Koyo Military Guide" and "Matsulin Night Talk" respectively.

Therefore, with the ability of Kansaki Keiji, he will not watch Uesugi Kenmasa force Hojo Shiyasu to death, because Usami Dingman will also ask Gansaki Keiji about the importance of Hojo Shiyasu.

Then Hojo's death is very strange.

First of all, he killed and then disguised as suicide, Hojo Shiyasu was killed by someone else, then this assassin was hostile to Uesugi Masato, which is inevitable.

If this is the case, the news of Hojo's death will spread quickly, otherwise the assassin would not have killed Hojo Shiyasu, and he must have killed Hojo Shiyasu to achieve the Hojo family's goal of being hostile to Uesugi Masatora.

The other is suicide, and Hojo Shiyasu's suicide must have seen the Uesugi family's purpose of keeping his life.

But now it's useless for Hojo Shiyasu to commit suicide, and the current Hojo family is relatively weak and powerless to resist Uesugi.

If Hojo Shiyasu knew that he wanted to commit suicide for this purpose, it would mean that someone was telling him about the current situation, which made Hojo Shiyasu see an opportunity, as long as he died, the Hojo family would have no scruples.

When Yoshicho thought about it, he suddenly felt that the matter of Shangluo was very urgent, and the current strength of Kanto was very weak, and if someone set off a big chaos, Uesugi Masahu could only go back to quell the rebellion.

Just leaving Yoshicho himself, plus the shogunate army, Hosokawa army and Rokkaku army, the advantage is gone, and he can't stay too long, the Imagawa family is already in Mikawa.

He had planned to discuss the movement of the Imagawa family, but now that there were signs of turmoil in the Kanto region, the situation was somewhat unfavorable to Yoshinaga.

His retainers were already arguing, but Yoshicho just shook his head slightly and muttered, "It's a wave..."

"Lord!" Kamizu Kenra shouted, "Let's make peace with the Miyoshi family, that's it, if the Imagawa family really attacks Mino from Mikawa, our army's retreat will be gone!" ”

Isshiki Yoshilong was also very worried: "My lord, Shenjin's worries are not unreasonable. ”

A group of Minong people hurriedly agreed, and their territories were all in Mino.

Shimizu Yasuei said angrily: "Is the Imagawa family terrible! It's just a chicken, a dog, and the old man can stop them alone, the lord asks for a soldier and a horse for his ministers, and the ministers go down to block the Imagawa family! ”

Yasutoshi Mamiya and Keimune Sakahara followed Ying He, they often fought with the Imagawa family in Izu, and they were not afraid of the Imagawa family at all.

Inaba Liangtong said softly: "Qing Shui, what if our army's grain route is cut off? How can such an army guarantee supplies.

Moreover, Hojo Hall committed suicide, and it is very likely that Hojo Hall will be bewitched by people with different intentions, and the Kwantung Coalition Army is very likely to have problems, and our army will not even have backup at that time.

While we can still use our power to suppress others, it is best to negotiate peace as soon as possible. ”

Shimizu Yasuei still wanted to argue, but Yoshicho raised his hand and said, "Okay, let's discuss it here today, let's go down and rest." ”

Seeing that the chief personally came forward to mediate, the retainers hurriedly responded and withdrew from the curtain one after another.

Yasuei Shimizu, Yasutoshi Mamiya, and Keimune Sahara got together after the curtain came out.

Yasumiyasu frowned and looked at Yasuei Shimizu and Keimune Keihara and said, "Hojo Hall is dead... Why did he commit suicide, was it resentment? ”

Shimizu Yasuei and Sahara Keimune's eyes were a little red.

Takuhara Jingzong clenched his fists and said: "We are already retainers of the Ogasawara family, and the lord treats us well. ”

Yasuei Shimizu said with a straight face: "Of course, I am not a samurai who is in the evening.

I support Shangluo to continue, because I think that once Shangluo succeeds, this will be a very good thing for my family. ”

Yasumiyasu shook his head and said, "Everyone can see this, it depends on how the lord decides." ”

Another day passed, and Miyoshi Changqing in Akutagawa City was in a rare good mood, and he already knew the news that the Imagawa family had sent troops to Mikawa.

He stood in the small attic on the top floor of the castle tower, looked at the Ogasawara family outside the castle and said, "Imagawa Jibu Daisuke has sent more than 10,000 Chen soldiers to Mikawa, do you think Uesugi Guan Leader is here to support Ogasawara Yoshinaga, or to help guard Mino?" Hahahaha..."

Miyoshi Yoshiken said with a smile: "With Ogasawara Yoshicho's family, plus Hosokawa Guan Ling, they won't be able to take our Akutagawa Castle in three years!" ”

As soon as Miyoshi Yoshixian's voice fell, he saw Miyoshi Changqing's face change, and Miyoshi Changqing looked at Ogasawara Yoshinaga's main formation, showing a puzzled expression.

Yoshiken Miyoshi and the others also looked up at Ogasa's original formation.

In Ogasa's original formation, Yoshinaga put on his armor and took his ten-character spear from the hands of the people close to him.

With a "tom", the spear was plunged directly into the soil for more than an inch.

Yoshicho looked around at the retainers and said, "In my Yoshicho, there is no fortified city that cannot be attacked, and Odawara Castle has been broken by me!"

Today, I'm going to go into battle to see if this castle is harder than Odawara Castle! ”

"Oh!"

Yasuei Shimizu, the others, Shinano and others raised their hands and cheered.

Yishi Yilong hurriedly persuaded: "Lord, you are a daughter, you only need to sit in the Chinese army." ”

Yichang glanced at Yishi Yilong, and Yilong saw a trace of murder in Yichang's eyes, which frightened his neck.

Yoshichang raised the ten-character gun and shouted, "Out of battle!" ”

"Oh!"

"Kill! Destroy them! ”

"Be sure to teach the three good a lesson!"

Yoshicho walked out of the curtain surrounded by a crowd of generals, and the people around him raised his banner and horse seal.

When the Ogasawara army saw Yoshinaga's banner and horse seal in action, they raised their weapons and cheered, and the sound was so loud that the defenders of Akutagawa Castle were greatly shaken.

Miyoshi Nagakei asked in surprise at the castle tower, "Is this the oni Shinano?" ”
