Chapter 621: Attack on Hyuga Castle

Li Zhan went all the way to Hizen's house under the leadership of Hizen Masaya, how to say, at this time, almost all of the Wajima were thatched houses, and bricks had not yet been popularized in Wajima, which was the Hizen family, and the house they lived in was only a wooden structure.

Moreover, the form of the houses of the Hizen family is basically copied from the housing architecture of the Sui Dynasty, and they are all the mode of cornices, so it can be said that the houses of Wajima are really inspired by the Sui and Tang dynasties.

If you want to see the architecture of the Sui Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty, which is entirely wooden, take a look at Horyuji Temple in Wajima, which is also called Ikaryuji Temple, located in Ikaruga Town, Ikoma-gun, Nara, Wajima, and is a Buddhist wooden temple built by Prince Shotoku during the Asuka period.

Its entire building, which is influenced by our Sui and Tang Dynasty architecture, is divided into two courtyards, the east and west, the west courtyard preserves the golden hall and the five-storied pagoda; The eastern courtyard is home to the Dream Hall and other buildings, and the western courtyard is the oldest wooden building complex in the world.

There are more than 40 buildings in the temple, preserving hundreds of pieces of art from the 7th ~ 8th centuries, covering an area of about 187,000 square meters. There are more than 2,300 cultural relics in 190 categories.

On the contrary, there are not many real all-wood buildings.

..................

After arriving at Hizen's house, everyone in Hizen's family came out to pay homage to Li Zhan, and they knelt to greet each other, Li Zhan let the people of Hizen's family be exempted, and followed Li Zhan to be invited into Hizen's house to rest.

Seriously, Li Zhan's place of residence is not bad, and the young lady of the Hizen family, Xinzi, is serving her closely, Li Zhan did not refuse, because this is a sign of trust in the Hizen family.

Just when Miss Xinzi of the Hizen family was serving Li Zhan.

Hizen Masaya returned to his place with his reward, and at this time, all the heads of the Hizen family also came.

At this time, Hizen Masaya took all the things that Li Zhan had rewarded him and said, "I know, you must be wondering why I want to become that person's retainer."

I don't want to explain, but I'm just going to show you what He gave me. ”

After saying that, Hizen Masaya's son took out the brocade rewarded by Li Zhan, and the first thing to make clear was that the best clothes worn by the Wajima people at this time were just hemp.

The brocade that Li Zhan rewarded was Shu brocade.

Shu brocade has a history of 2,000 years, most of them are colored with warp threads, color stripes are added to flowers, warp and weft are flowered, first color strips and then brocade groups, square, strip-shaped, geometric skeleton is added to flowers, symmetrical patterns, quadripartite continuous, bright colors, strong contrast, is a kind of colorful brocade with Han national characteristics and local style.

The appearance of Shu brocade shocked the people of the Feiqian family present, when had they ever seen such a beautiful thing.

Then I listened to Fei Qian said: "I will not use this brocade alone, I will make a uniform costume for everyone, this is the face of our first retainer." ”

In addition to displaying Shu brocade, soap, soap, perfume, crystal tiger, mirror... After moving out one by one, the people of Hizen's family understood Hizen Masaya's intentions, and they all believed in the power of the eldest son of the Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty.

Seriously, every one of these things will be an immortal treasure, but the eldest son of the emperor will be rewarded so casually, you don't have to guess to know that this person's strength must greatly exceed the current Tachibana clan, Su I clan, and Monobe clan, so it should be the most correct to follow this emperor's eldest son.

Finally, the Hizen family is united, and you have to say that the Wajima people are also very strange, they are cunning and greedy by nature, but when they surrender, they will be your most loyal people.

After they really decided to surrender to Li Zhan, the Hizen family began to regard Li Zhan as their god, and Li Zhan's words would be the highest instruction of the Hizen family, and not only Li Zhan, but even the Tiger Benjun also became the object of the Hizen family's goodwill.

I don't know how many young women got into the Tiger Army's barracks that night.

Because these soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army are all young men, so... Of course, Li Zhan didn't blame this matter, after all, he was his first minister, and Li Zhan understood the thoughts of the Hizen family.

This is also the reason why Li Zhan did not refuse Xinzi.

Li Zhan knows that the Hizen family wants to borrow seeds, so you can give it to you if you want... Li Zhan needs the loyalty of the Hizen family.

............................

The next morning, Li Zhan was full of energy when he saw Cheng Chumo and the others, and he was also very happy while Feiqian Zhengya.

Li Zhan smiled: "Everyone had a good rest yesterday... So today we're going to do it. ”

"What action...!" Cheng Chumo was the first to shout: "The last general is already tired of staying on the ship, Your Highness, you can give orders, and the last will complete all your Dade orders." ”

"Your Highness... The last will too. Qin Huaiyu also got up and bowed down to ask for his life.

The others were not far behind, and they all got up and bowed down to ask for battle, this scene made Hizen Masaya look stupid, Li Zhan said with a smile: "Our actions today still depend on Hizen-kun." ”

After speaking, Li Zhan asked Zhang Yaozu to tell Hizen Zhengya, and asked Hizen Zhengya, Li Zhan wants to defeat this Kyushu Peninsula, how many forces there are in this Kyushu Peninsula, how many soldiers there are, and what is the combat power.

After listening to Zhang Yaozu's translation, Hizen Masaya immediately told Li Zhan that there were three forces on this Kyushu Peninsula, namely Hizen, Higo, and Hinata, of which Hinata controlled Fukuoka and Oita, and Higo controlled Kumamoto and Miyazaki.

Hizen Masaya told Li Zhan that he could go and talk about the Higo family, because Higo and Hizen's family still have something to do with each other, but the Hyuga family can't, because the Hyuga family is a retainer of the Suga clan, and with 3,000 soldiers in their hands, they are the strongest force on the Jiuzhou Peninsula.

Li Zhan smiled slightly: "Very good...!" ”

After laughing, Li Zhan looked at Cheng Chumo and the others: "Generals, our task is coming, to annihilate the Hyuga family within three days, those who surrender will not be killed, and those who refuse to surrender will be killed." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Hizen Masaya on the side immediately said: "The Hizen family is willing to be a pioneer." ”

However, Li Zhan shook his head with a smile and said: "Fei Qianjun's mind is alone, but the lonely Tiger Ben army will still not have casualties against these miscellaneous troops, and Fei Qianjun can send a guide to us and point out the location." ”

"Ahh Hizen Masaya hurriedly said: "My son Hizen Ichifu can be used as a guide." ”

"Oh...!" Li Zhan nodded and smiled, "Okay... Let your son be your guide, and tell your son that if his path is accurate, let him be Lone's personal guard. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness...!" Hizen Masaya was overjoyed.

Hinata is not the family in the Hokage, Hinata is both the name of the place and the name of a family, only later Hinata disappeared and was replaced by Miyazaki.

The climate here is warm and the sunshine hours are long, so it is called "Hyuga Country". The forest resources are abundant, the forest coverage rate is 76%, and there are luxuriant subtropical plants growing everywhere, known as the sunny and green land, and it is called "the county with superior living conditions" by people from other counties.

"Wow... It's so beautiful here...! Cheng Chu laughed silently.

That's right, the people in charge of attacking Hinata's family are Cheng Chumo, Yu Chi Baolin and Yu Chi Baoqing.

"Cut... I still prefer the women here, the little birds are human, and when I go back, I must bring two back. Yu Chi Baoqing grinned and said, this Yu Chi Baoqing was happy last night.

It's just that when Yu Chi Baoqing finished speaking, Cheng Chumo and Yu Chi Baolin on the side showed envious expressions.

Why did the two show envious expressions, because the two also liked the obedient women of the Fat Front family, but the two couldn't take them back, because Cheng Chumo and Yu Chi Baolin were married.

What do you say about a married person taking a woman home, if his father knows about it, he won't be killed.

Now I can see that there is no benefit of marrying, and you can be unscrupulous.

Just when the two of them looked at Yu Chi Baoqing with envy, a small city appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Hizen pointed to the city in front of him and told Cheng Chumo that the city in front of him was the Hyuga City of the Hyuga family, Cheng Chumo beat his horse and took a look, and at this time, the people in the opposite city also found the Tiger Army.

There was a loud sound of brass in the city, and the city gate was slowly closed, followed by soldiers on the city wall to guard.

Cheng Chu silently observed the small city opposite and smiled: "This city is really small...!" ”

Why did Cheng Chumo say this, because the city in front of him is only about one mile, Chang'an City is more than sixty miles, and the Hyuga City in front of him is still the largest city here.

At this time, the castle of Wajima was generally connected with the wild area, the area of the war, and the area of the war.

The "wild area" is made of natural stones, and small stones are inserted between the gaps to strengthen the castle wall. The advantage is that it is good for drainage, and the disadvantage is that the enemy can easily climb up. "Jointing" is to process the stones into a flat surface and then pile them up, and then stuff small stones between the gaps.

Most of them adopt this construction method, and the city wall can be steeper and more domineering. "Cutting and jointing" is to process the stones into rectangles and then pile them up, with almost no gaps between the stones, similar to a brick wall.

The inner castle in the center of the castle is called "Honmaru" and is the headquarters of the government, the outer castle is "Ninomaru", and the outermost "Sannomaru" is the residence of the lord or retainer. The moat is called Hori, the moat that encompasses the entire castle town is Sohori, the moat that surrounds the entire castle is called the outer hori, and the moat closest to the center of the castle is Uchihori.

The largest place in the inner city is called the pavilion, and the architectural styles are roughly divided into four types: free-standing, composite, connected, and vertical.

A free-standing pavilion is a single one, similar to a five-storied or seven-storied pagoda; The compound pavilion is connected to the oar; The connecting type is to use the verandah to connect the large pavilion, small pavilion, oar and other buildings; The continuous vertical type connects the large and small pavilions with the turrets and city walls into a small castle.

"It's all wooden...?" Cheng Chumo looked back at Yu Chi Baolin and Yu Chi Baoqing, and the brothers laughed evilly.

On the other side, Wei Chi Baoqing said: "Ah... There aren't many canisters to bring this time, so don't mess around. ”

"How much did we share?" Cheng asked with a smile.

"A hundred cans... And His Highness made it very clear that we will only use it when necessary. Yu Chi Baoqing emphasized.

It's just that Cheng Chu, who was on the side, said silently: "It's very necessary now." ”

That's it... Under the guidance of Cheng Chumo, the three thousand tiger army stood in front of the so-called Hyuga City, and a person who followed Zhang Yaozu went to shout, the content was very simple, that is, to let the Hyuga family go out of the city and surrender.

At this time, the Hyuga family saw Hizen Ichifu, and some people recognized Hizen Ichifu's identity.

So soon someone on the city wall shouted: "The people below are from the Hizen family, what do you want to do when you come to my Hyuga Castle?" ”

Hearing that he was named, Hizen Ichifu had no choice but to beat his horse and come out and said: "It's Uncle Hinata in the city, I am Hizen Masaya's son Hizen Ichifu, and the army below is not from my Hizen family, but the personal guard army of His Royal Highness the eldest son of the Tang Emperor of the Celestial Empire, the Tiger Ben Army."

The purpose of coming here this time is very simple, His Royal Highness the eldest son of the Tang Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty has taken a fancy to this place and wants to build a city here, hoping that the Hyuga family can contribute. ”

"Yaga...!"

Before Hizen finished speaking, there was a voice of insult on the city wall, and then I heard someone from the Hyuga family scolding below: "His Royal Highness, the eldest son of the Tang Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty, the master of our Hyuga family is only the Su I clan."

Your Hizen family has been someone else's dog, and our Hyuga family doesn't care, but we won't be half-hearted. ”

Fei Qian Yifu frowned slightly, and at this time, Cheng Chumo walked over and smiled: "They scolded you?" ”

Hizen didn't speak, while Zhang Yaozu's people translated the words of the Hyuga family just now, so Cheng Chu laughed silently and said, "Oops... We are being underestimated. ”

At this time, Hizen Ichifu nodded and said: "The Soga clan has a military strength of nearly 20,000 people, and it is united with the Monobe clan, they are the biggest force in Wajima, and the Hyuga family is short-sighted, and they just want to lean on the side of the Soga clan." ”

"Hehe... I said, or our strength has not been shown, I think if we don't show our strength, your father and the Higo family will not be able to negotiate. ”

How to say it, Cheng Chumo, this guy is really a good and not a bad spirit, what he said at Hinata's house was really said at Higo's house, and Feiqian arrived at Higo's house and explained his intentions.

The head of the Higo family didn't mean to move, although there was a trace of origin in the Higo family, but the head of the Higo family told Hizen Masaya to be careful of being deceived, which actually meant that he didn't believe in the identity of Li Zhan and others.

Following Hizen Masaya took out the glass mirror in order to prove Li Zhan's identity, the magical glass mirror finally convinced the head of the Higo family, but now the Higo family is considering becoming a retainer of the Soga clan.

Therefore, the head of the Higo family still wants to see how well Li Zhan's army is fighting, and it just so happens that according to Hizen Masaya's introduction, Li Zhan sent 3,000 troops to fight Hyuga City.

At this time, the head of the Higo family made a decision, if Li Zhan's army could capture Hyuga Castle in three days, then the Higo family would become Li Zhan's retainers.

But if Li Zhan's army doesn't defeat the Hyuga family in three days, then ask Hizen Masaya to leave.

For a while, Hizen Masaya was a little apprehensive, because Hizen Masaya knew how high the Hinata family city was, and this time Li Zhan only dispatched 3,000 troops, and the Hyuga family also had 3,000 troops, and there was also a city, so Hizen Masaya thought that three days was a little less.

He wanted to convince the head of the Higo family to give him a little more time, but the head of the Higo family did not agree, which made Hizen Masaya anxious.
