Matsugami Castle Nishi no Matsumaru.

Yoshihide Koyama, who broke into the house, looked at Nobuyoshi Yano who was covered in a pool of blood with knife wounds, and then turned his eyes to Matsugami Yoshimitsu and the others who were armed with knives, and couldn't help but question and curse them.

"Matsugami Yoshimitsu! Heinobu Ohno! How dare you murder the last of your family, and you want to rebel and scold?"

However, as soon as the words came out, Koyama Yoshiei regretted it, and the combined power of Matsugami Yoshimitsu and Ohno Heinobu was no longer stoppable in the Matsukami family.

What's more, Nobuyoshi Yano is dead, and it will be in vain to do anything.

Koyama Yoshiei understood that it would be futile for him to say anything in this situation, so he was very decisive and turned around with a knife and wanted to escape from Nishinomaru.

However, it was already too late, and the same Yoshihei Tsuno and Nobuji Nitoki blocked Yoshihide Koyama's retreat, while Yoshimitsu Matsugami and Heinobu Ohno slowly approached with knives on the left and right.

Seeing this, Koyama Yoshiei immediately panicked, and now his life path has been blocked, and he is not known for his martial arts, and it seems that he will definitely die.

"Am I really going to die here like His Highness Nobuyoshi today!"

Koyama Yoshiei looked at Yano Nobuyoshi, who was covered in stab wounds, but suddenly threw down the long knife and shouted: "Yoshimitsu-sama, Ono-sama, I know that today is another catastrophe, but for the sake of our former colleagues, can we allow myself to commit suicide by seppuku to avoid humiliation." ”

Since death is already inevitable, Koyama Yoshiei would rather choose a glorious death to preserve his reputation, otherwise it would be a loss of face to be killed. What's more, samurai have the habit of beheading, and if they don't cut their stomachs, I'm afraid they won't even be able to save the whole corpse.

"This ......" Ohno Heinobu was a pure samurai after all, so he wanted to agree to Koyama Yoshiei's request for seppuku. However, Matsugami Yoshimitsu preemptively said before Ohno Hiranobu: "Seppuku is impossible!" Oyama-sama assassinated and even mutilated the Yano clan because he was jealous of His Highness Nobuyoshi, and Ono-sama and Zaita worked together to kill you after discovering it. How can Lord Koyama deserve the honor of seppuku if he made such a big mistake?"

"Bastard! You're trying to blame me for His Highness Nobuyoshi's death! Do you think everyone in my family will believe it?"

Koyama Yoshiei saw that Matsugami Yoshimitsu was going to put the death of Yano Nobuyoshi on his head, and he was a little anxious, if the Koyama family assassinated the notoriety of the lord family, then the Matsugami family would be doomed.

The ancestors of the Ohno family and the Koyama family are both one of the five retainers of the first generation, and naturally they also have some friendships, but at this time, seeing Koyama Yoshiei in such a tragic situation, Ohno Heinobu is quite unbearable.

"Yoshimitsu-sama, what Oyama-sama said will not make sense, and everyone will believe that Koyama-sama will assassinate His Highness Nobuyoshi. Besides, we already have an edict from Chongyuan Academy, so why do we need any other excuse?"

"Ohno-sama!" When Yoshihide Koyama heard this, he immediately looked at Ohno Heinobu gratefully.

"No!" However, Matsugami Yoshimitsu replied coldly: "After all, Lord Chongyuanyuan is only a woman, and the young master of Gosanmaru is also young after all, so if we use Chongyuan's edict as an excuse, it is inevitable that some people will think that she is being held hostage by us. This is also a big obstacle to your reputation and mine, and besides, does Ohno-sama think that if the Yano faction wins, he will let you and me go?"

"This ......" Ohno Heinobu suddenly hesitated, after all, the Ohno family and the Xiaoshan family have a friendship, but how can they compare to themselves?

Seeing this, Matsugami Yoshimitsu pointed at Koyama Yoshiei and said, "And Koyama-sama is different, if he admits in front of everyone that he assassinated His Highness Shinyoshi, it will be much more credible." What's more, with the situation of you and me joining forces, the key is not to believe what we say, but how we say it. This is just a fig leaf. ”

At this time, even Ohno Heinobu was moved, but Koyama Yoshiei suddenly despaired when he saw the change in Ohno Heinobu's expression.

"Delusional, I, Xiaoshan Jiying, am not even afraid of death, how can I be at your mercy and let the Xiaoshan family be slandered!" In desperation, Yoshihide Koyama shouted at Yoshimitsu Matsugami.

In fact, he is indeed not afraid of death, not to mention that if it is really according to Matsugami Yoshimitsu, then the name of the Koyama family will not be kept, which is difficult for a samurai who values his family above his life.

"Nope! You will. Matsugami Yoshimitsu looked at Koyama Yoshiei and commented: "If you take the responsibility for assassinating His Royal Highness Nobuyoshi, then the Koyama family will not be able to be a samurai at most, but if you don't do this, you will ensure that the Koyama family will be cut off." Since then, there has been no one in the world who is Mu Xiaoshan's family, and he hopes that Xiaoshan will be self-determined. ”

"This ......" is the heaviest Koyama Yoshiei still succumbed, and the inheritance of the bloodline is undoubtedly more important than the continuation of the family name.

"So what needs to be done next?" Koyama Yoshiying, who chose to give in, said helplessly.

"This requires the cooperation of the little adults." Matsugami Yoshimitsu smiled with satisfaction. .......

Yanoya Yashiki.

Somehow, after the departure of his eldest son, Nobuyoshi Yano, Yano Yukisada was quite uneasy, after all, the struggle for power was inevitably accompanied by blood.

"Am I doing something wrong by letting Nobuyoshi plot against the Matsugami family?"

Yukisada Yano, who was in the garden, thought so. However, he soon laughed at himself again, and timidity was not something a samurai should do. However, what Yano Yukisada didn't know was that Matsugami Yoshimitsu and Ohno Heinobu each led a group of men and horses at this time, and the water around the Yano family was exhausted, and his eldest son Yano Nobuyoshi, who had pinned his hopes, had already died at this time.

"Yoshimitsu-sama, Ohno-sama, are we really going to do this?"

Koyama Yoshiei, who was standing in a hidden place outside the Yano family's house, said with some patience. If Koyama Yoshiei hadn't had this kind of boring sympathy in the past, but now that Koyama's family was about to fall, he didn't want to accuse himself of more crimes.

However, Matsugami Yoshimitsu is determined to get rid of the Yanoya family to prevent future troubles. "The lesson of the Kiyomori Gong only needs to be once in this world, and if they don't get rid of the Yano family, they will never let go of the Xiaoshan family in the future."

Yoshihide Koyama has nothing to say. In the past, Taira Kiyomori fought against the queen of the source Yoritomo, but unexpectedly let go of the Kamakura Hall and adopted the Kuro Judge Yoshitsune, but in the future, it was the Kamakura Hall and the Kuro Judge who joined forces to destroy the Hei family. Since then, the matter of Qingsheng Gong has been regarded as a lesson by later generations of martial artists, and there will be a catastrophe if the grass is not eradicated.

At this time, Ohno Heinobu also spoke: "Lord Oyama, you should still act according to the agreement!" Now is not the time to be considerate. ”

After that, Ohno Heinobu ignored Koyama Yoshiei and said to Matsugami Yoshimitsu: "Yoshimitsu-sama, since this place has been surrounded by groups, then let's attack directly!"

Matsugami Yoshimitsu didn't want to be sideways, so he nodded and ordered everyone: "Light the fire and release the arrows!" ......
