A few days later, Liangmu Village.

"Hurry, hurry!"

"Don't delay, move to the other side of the river at once."

"Everyone has to trust Yoshimitsu-sama, and everything that can't be taken away will be left here first. Be sure to move out of Ryoki Village before dark, and I, Ryoki Nagamasa, promise that you will be able to come back. ”

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

At this time, the village of Liangmu had been completely transformed into a small fortress, the center of the village had been raised by two people, a house building had been built, and various main roads in the village had been blocked with wooden boards. In the event of an invasion by a foreign enemy, these transformations will certainly become a good cure for stopping the enemy.

Yoshiki Nagamasa and Yoshiki Kazuhei are also moving the villagers to other places according to Matsugami Yoshimitsu's instructions, both to reduce unnecessary losses and to prevent chaos from affecting the situation of the war.

"My lord, my lord......" At this moment, an envoy ran barefoot towards the two of them eagerly.

"Oh, Heisuke! What's the matter?" This Heisuke was one of the envoys specially arranged by Yoshiki Nagamasa to investigate the situation, so he didn't delay and asked Heisuke directly about his intentions.

"Hah!" At this time, he also calmed down a little, and hurriedly replied to the two of them breathlessly: "Lord Changzheng! Ippei-sama! The grain transport team sent by the lord is here, and there are several large carts!"

"What! Lead the way, I'm going to meet them. After hearing the good news, Liangmu Nagamasa was overjoyed, knowing that the key to a war, especially the battle of defense, depends largely on the amount of military rations.

Even the always steady Liangmu Yiping couldn't help but be overjoyed at this time: "Now it's finally at ease!" With this batch of grain sent by the lord, our Liangmu Village can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai! ”......

So the two of them brought a few entourages and asked the envoy to lead the way, and hurriedly went to meet the grain transport team led by Togo Kojiro, and sure enough, as the envoy said, it was full of several carts of grain!

Yoshiki Nagamasa has always been impatient, so he pulled out his sword and cut the rice stalk with his hand, and grabbed a handful of rice from it, and when he saw that it was the new rice that had been shelled at the end, he was even more overjoyed.

"All soldiers will be rewarded with a bowl of rice today!" After announcing this news in public, which made everyone cheer, Yoshiki Nagamasa proposed to Yoshiki Ichihei and Togo Kojiro: "Togo-sama has brought great news today! In my opinion, Lord Togo will rest here for a day today, and Issei and I will have a good banquet for you. ”

"Changzheng is right!" Immediately afterwards, Yoshiki Ichihei immediately agreed: "Although everyone is loyal to the public, Togo-sama has also helped us a lot this time!" It would be a shame not to thank Togo-sama well. ”

"In this way, I would like to thank the two adults for their friendship." The prestige of the two Liangmu is also thunderous in Matsumoto Castle, and Togo Kojiro is naturally willing to make friends as a latecomer.

A moment later, inside the main house of the good wood.

"Hahahaha, I've admired the prestige of the two Liangmu for a long time, and now I have to taste what I want when I see it."

"Where, the lord can hand over the important task of transporting grain to Lord Dongxiang, which shows that Lord Dongxiang's talent is outstanding, and he is really an extraordinary person when I see it today."

"Long admiration, long admiration ......"

"You're welcome, you're ......"

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

After drinking for thirty years, after a period of mutual praise, Togo Kojiro and Yoshiki Nagamasa and Yoshiki Ichihei quickly became acquainted. After the maids withdrew from the banquet, Togo Kojiro solemnly took out a letter from his bosom and solemnly presented it to the two.

"Lord Changzheng, Lord Yiping, this is the letter that the Lord asked me to pass on to the two of you before leaving."

"Oh~~~, do you have any instructions?" Ryoki Ippei, who was sitting near Togo Kojiro, hurriedly took the letter with both hands and spread it out to read, and then Ryoki Nagamasa next to him hurriedly came up when he saw this.

However, it didn't take long for the two of them to change their faces together, and their expressions were quite complicated, some were difficult to believe, some were regretful, and even some were resentful.

After a long time, Liangmu Yiping, who had calmed down, closed the letter and asked, "Lord Togo, is this the lord's order?"

"Indeed!" Togo Kojiro didn't doubt that there was him, but he replied truthfully.

"Got it!" Yoshiki Ippei quickly calmed down and took a deep breath and said again: "Please tell the lord, we understand what he means, and I and Changzheng will definitely complete the things entrusted by the lord." ”

"Hah!" Togo Kojiro thought that the two wanted to show their loyalty, so he hurriedly said that he should take the matter. ......

Two days later, not long after Togo Kojiro left from Ryogi, Ohno Heinobu, who had been looking at him and delaying, finally couldn't help but ask for instructions from Chongyuanin and officially launched an army to crusade against the "rebel minister" Matsugami Yoshimitsu.

Originally, when this kind of lord and young country was suspicious, it was better to be still than to be still, and Chongyuanyuan, as the guardian of the young lord, should maintain the stability of the situation no matter what.

However, Chongyuanin seems to lack this kind of wisdom, not only does not limit the potential conflict, but fanned the flames on the side, and what is even more unbelievable is that she actually issued a "letter of rebellion" to Matsugami Yoshimitsu and Ohno Heinobu at the same time, so that in addition to allowing the two to obtain the name of righteousness, it is to lose the prestige of the main family.

As a result, the hearts of the people who had begun to be in turmoil in Matsugami Castle became even more chaotic, and the four generals of Matsukami, represented by Ono Jiro, were even more open and devoted themselves to the hands of Ono Heinobu who entered the city first, so for a while, Ohno Heinobu was more powerful and couldn't wait to complete his own "Matsuyoi Unification" cause.

The southern part of Ise is a rare plain area, so Ohno Heinobu led the 300 soldiers he had worked hard to assemble and quickly rushed to the west bank of the Mitsu River, and he also received the news from the spies that Ryoki Village had already been turned into a village.

Speaking of which, the location of Liangmu is actually not dangerous, and most of the banks of the river are plains and some dangerous places. The Santu River, which is really in danger, can stop the attack, but it is not very turbulent, after all, although the river is only one meter deep, the soldiers are really not that high, and Matsugami Yoshimitsu will not sit idly by and watch the Ono army cross the river safely.

What's more, Liangmu is also a nail that has to be removed, otherwise Ohno Heinobu will be in danger of being attacked by the enemy. As a result, Ohno Heinobu, who was well versed in the way of war, had to first set up the military formation not far from the Liangmu Fortress, and while building a wooden platoon to prepare for the crossing of the Santu River, he waited for an opportunity to pull out the nail of the Liangmu Formation.

Such a powerful action naturally can't be concealed from the well-intentioned people Yoshiki Nagamasa and Yoshiki Ippei, and in fact, Ohno Heinobu didn't want to hide it. One is Matsugami Yoshimitsu has long been on guard against him, and the other is a battle for his prestige and construction, and it must be magnificent!

And the two of them, who were guarding the good wood, naturally did not dare to take the overall situation lightly, so they had to send a messenger to inform Matsugami Yoshimitsu.
