"Kill, you can't let go of a person from the Matsugami family."

"Find the Matsugami righteous walkers, and enjoy all the fields for 50 stones, whether they live or die."

"Damn, the Xinjin family dared to sneak attack us."

"The Xinjin family's offensive is too fierce, go and report to the lord."

.......

.....

In the Yuanmei Temple, the fierce battle between Shinjin and Matsugami continues. When the remnants of the Matsugami family's forces in Genmeiji Temple sensed the Shintsu family's attack, they immediately counterattacked under the leadership of several samurai. However, at this time, the Matsukami family's forces had already lost more than half of their forces, and they were not enough to resist the fierce attack of the Nakashinjin family. Coupled with the fact that they responded to the battle in a hurry, the outcome of this battle is even more conceivable. Gradually, the Matsugami family's army began to rout.

"Quick, quickly retreat to the Xinjin Pavilion, with the reinforcements of the young master, none of these traitors of the Xinjin family can be let go." A samurai of the Matsukami family, seeing that the situation was not good, prepared to break out and ask for reinforcements.

However, Doi Sajiro and they had already taken precautions against this, and the small Yuanmei Temple was surrounded by the Shinjin army.

"Lord Ono, all the major roads of Yuanmei Temple have been occupied by the Xinjin family, and the family has suffered heavy casualties and has not broken through. What's next?" After several unsuccessful breakouts and the loss of many soldiers, a head of the ashigaru group asked the samurai named Ono, the same samurai who ordered the breakout, about countermeasures.

"Damn." This Ono-sama also knew at this moment that his family was hopeless to break through this time, so he gritted his teeth and said hatefully. "Withdraw, all evacuate to the residence of the lord, even death can't make the Xinjin family feel better."

"Haha." Then the samurai Ono took the remaining soldiers of the Matsugami family and retreated to Matsugami Yoshiyuki's residence in the Yuanmei Temple, and at this time there were only a dozen or so soldiers left in the Matsugami family.

The residence of Matsugami Yoshiyuki in Yuanmei Temple.

Matsugami Yoshiyuki forcibly occupied the residence of the abbot Master Lianwu since he moved into Yuanmei Temple, and of course, the two beautiful concubines of Master Lianwu were also forcibly taken away by him.

"Kill, don't let go of Matsugami Yoshiyuki."

"Heavenly Punishment ......"

"Damn...... Yes. ”

At night, Matsugami Yoshiyuki, who fell asleep early because of the absurdity of the two beauties he snatched, heard a sound of shouting and killing in his ears. Originally, Matsugami Yoshiyuki was dazed and didn't care about the almost inaudible shouting and killing at the beginning, and in his opinion, his arrangement was solid, and there would be no chaos at all. However, as the shouts of killing got louder and closer, Matsugami Yoshiyuki, who was originally calm, couldn't help but worry. He pushed away the beauties on his left and right, then put on his kimono and nightgown, picked up his katana, and prepared to go out to see what was going on.

At this time, a figure suddenly broke in, "Ah......" The two beautiful concubines who had just woken up suddenly screamed in fright.

Matsugami Yoshiyuki was also a little frightened, and he forced himself to perhale and took a look to find that the person who broke in was actually his own retainer. While he was relieved, he couldn't help but feel angry.

"Shut up." Matsugami Yoshiyuki first stopped the two beautiful concubines who were screaming.

These two beauties were just playthings, and when they saw Matsugami Yoshiyuki's angry face, they didn't dare to make a sound at all.

Then he looked at the intruding samurai and asked. "Ono, what's going on? Why are you so panicked?"

Matsugami Yoshiyuki knew that his retainers would not dare to be so rude if nothing happened, so he temporarily suppressed the anger in his heart.

Sure enough, Ono saw Matsugami's inquiry and hurriedly knelt down to report. "My lord, the retainers of the Xinjin family took advantage of the chaos to sneak attack Yuanmei Temple, and the samurai and ashigaru of the main family in the temple suffered heavy casualties. Now there are only a dozen soldiers left in the temple, and the Xinjin army has trapped us here. ”

"What? Where is Yoshisada Shinzu?" Matsugami Yoshiyuki's face changed dramatically after listening to Ono's report, and he immediately asked about Shintsu Yoshisada's situation. As long as Shinzu Yoshisada is still in his hands, the situation will still be saved.

However, in the face of Matsugami Yoshiyuki, who was staring at him, Ono said with a wry smile. "The lord forgave the sin, and the two main family members who were guarding Shinzu Yoshisada were beheaded. The monks in the temple and Shinjin Yoshisada disappeared together, and it must have been the monks in the temple who colluded with the Shinjin army inside and outside to rescue Shintsu Yoshisada. "Actually, as soon as I noticed that someone was attacking Ono, I sent someone to find Shinjin Yoshisada, but then it was too late.

Matsugami Yoshiyuki learned that Shintsu Yoshisada had fled, and immediately knew that he was in a catastrophe this time. He pushed open the door and saw that his small residence had indeed been surrounded by the Xinjin army at this time.

However, temples in the Warring States period were already small fortresses, and the residence occupied by Matsugami Yoshiyuki was once the most important abbot's residence in this fort. Therefore, for a while, the remnants of Matsugami relied on the strength of their residences, and the Xinjin army, which was attacked outside their residences, could not take advantage.

Seeing this, Matsugami Yoshiyuki suddenly felt that there was hope for life, and he hurriedly instructed Ono, who was waiting for his order. "Ono, immediately go out and organize the remaining ashigaru of the main family to resist the attack of the Shinjin family, and the main hall will arrive later. With this sturdy dwelling, maybe the family will be able to wait for reinforcements from the Shintsukan. ”

Such a big thing happened in Yuanmei Temple, and Matsugami Yoshiyuki didn't believe that the Xinjin Pavilion would not notice it. At that time, as soon as the reinforcements from the Shintsukan arrived, he hoped to completely annihilate the hostile forces, but Matsugami Yoshiyuki did not expect that something would happen to the Shintsukan.

"Haha." Ono was also relieved to see that the lord had arranged it in this way, and after receiving the order, he also went up to resist the attack of the Xinjin family. Matsugami Yoshiyuki was also a Warring States military general, and he was ready to come with a sword after seeing Ono go out to defend against the enemy. But in a blink of an eye, he saw the two concubines huddled together in the house, and Matsugami Yoshiyuki's eyes couldn't help but flash a fierce light.

"Ah~~~, Your Highness spares your life." The two women noticed that Matsugami Yoshiyuki's eyes were wide and screamed, and they prepared to run outside the house.

However, how could the two of them be Matsugami Yoshiyuki's opponents, Matsugami Yoshiyuki took a knife and slashed them, and they died one after another. After dealing with these two women who might bring shame to himself, Matsugami Yoshiyuki went out without looking back to resist the offensive of the Shinjin army.

At this moment, the remnants of Matsugami who were trapped in Matsugami Yoshiyuki's residence were only a dozen people in total. But first, they were besieged here, there was no way to escape, and they were forced out of the will to fight to the death, and secondly, the lord Matsugami Yoshiyuki personally fought on the field, which also improved a lot of morale. As a result, the battle situation in Yuanming Temple came to a stalemate.

Outside the residence of Matsugami Yoshiyuki of Yuanmei Temple.

The general of the Shinzu family, Ryo Doki, saw that the last fortress of the Matsugami family could not be attacked for a long time, and the main family was also damaged, so he couldn't help but suggest to the general Doi Sajiro. "Doi-sama, the Ashigaru family has started to get damaged after a long battle here, so why don't you let the Ashigaru rest before attacking?"

"No, that's not true." Sajiro Doi rejected Ryozo Doi's request. "Since ancient times, there has been a lot of vigor in wartime, and then it has declined, and it has been exhausted. If we can't take this place in one fell swoop, then we probably won't be able to attack this place tonight. When the reinforcements from the Matsugami family arrive, all the plans of the family will be in vain. ”

Then, Doi Sajiro ignored Tsuki's reaction and ordered loudly. "Ladies and gentlemen, success or failure is here. The army was divided into two teams, one for cover with bows and arrows from a high place, and the other for a strong attack. The general hereby promises that whoever asks for Matsugami's righteous deeds today will be rewarded with a hundred stones. At this point in the battle, Sajiro Doi couldn't help but boost morale with a generous reward.

"Haha." The morale of the Xinjin side was really boosted. The lives of the people of the Warring States are like mustard, and in order to reward the Xinjin army, they can't care about life and death.

Soon a new round of assault by the Xinjin army began.
