Japan's Sengoku period was an era full of miracles, and many incredible things happened in this era. For example, in the Battle of the Barrel Gorge, 2,700 miscellaneous soldiers defeated Imagawa's 40,000-strong army and won the sixth day demon king Oda Nobunaga, who was the head of Imagawa Yoshito; For example, with 16 people, he captured the Hanbei of Imakomei Takechu in Inabayama Castle; Another example is the battle of Sekigahara with 2,000 men to resist the 30,000 Tokugawa army.

Of course, the fact that these Warring States heroes can create such a miracle of winning more with less is inseparable from their own talents, but I am afraid that it is more the result of luck! However, it is clear that the Ashigaru of the Nishiki family do not have such talent and luck, except for the previous Ashigaru who discovered the movements of the Ohno family, and fled on horseback in chaos. The remaining members of the Nishiki family were quickly slaughtered by the large number of the Ono family's army, and the decades-old gate was quickly burned to the ground.

"Damn, I let one go, and I almost wiped them out." Next to the ashes of the Nishiki family gate, Nobuhei Ohno pointed his katana at a foot garigu who was riding away.

In a place like Ise, where agriculture is developed, horses are scarce, and even the entire Onoka family only has four or five horses. Nobutei Ohno never imagined that Shinji Nishiki would equip this small Sekisho with a fast horse, and he was still unwilling to scold the figure that was gradually moving away.

"yes, that's a shame." Nobuya Ohno, who has always opposed the attack on the Nishiki family, also said with some regret. It's just that I don't know if he's regretting that he let go of the Ashigaru of the Renki family and leaking the news of the Ono family's attack, or if he's sorry for the fast horse that the Ashigaru is riding, after all, even Ono Nobuna, who is the young master of the Ono clan, is just riding an old horse.

At this time, Ohno Heinobu, who had been commanding in the rear, also rushed over across the horse, and saw that he was wearing red armor and riding on a land oma, which was really imposing.

"That's what a samurai should look like!"

"What a majesty! It's all mine. ”

Ohno's majestic posture aroused the reverie of his two sons, especially after comparing it with the simple bamboo armor on his body, they were even more yearning.

"Taro, Matajiro, what are you doing? If you don't hurry up and gather your family's Ashigaru and prepare to enter Miki Castle, what a bastard!" Ohno's sudden rebuke quickly interrupted the reverie of Nobuya Ohno and Nobuthira Ohno.

After a moment of panic, Nobuhei Ohno hurriedly explained: "Father, just now a person from the Renki family has run away on a fast horse. If he were to inform Shinji Nishiki of the news of his family's advance, he would probably be detrimental to his family's offensive. ”

"That's right, Father. That's what Matajiro and I were discussing just now. Nobuya Ohno on the side also unexpectedly hurriedly echoed what Nobuthiri Ohno said, after all, he couldn't annoy Nobutin Ohno before he officially became the head of the family.

"I see." Ohno's originally cloudy angry face gradually subsided.

After a pause, he said with Zhizhu in his hand: "You don't have to worry about this, the Renmu family is now in the family's pocket." As for the ashiki who ran away lightly, Shinji Nishiki couldn't change the fate of being destroyed by his own family. Hurry up and get ready, and we'll go straight to Miki Castle right away. ”

"Haha."

"Haha." ......

Miki Castle

Shinji Nitoki, like Heinobu Ohno, also returned directly to Miki Castle after the death of Matsugami Yoshiyuki's father and son, but the strength of the Nishiki family is limited, and he doesn't have any other thoughts, just to protect himself. At first, Shinji Nishiki thought that he would go to Matsugami Castle when the situation calmed down, but as the Matsugami family became more and more turbulent, he gradually stopped this idea and stuck to Miki Castle with peace of mind.

On this day, Shinji Nishiki met with his daughter Hanahime and his adopted son-in-law Nobutaza in the castle tower as usual.

"Xinzhen, when will you let the old man see his grandson after you and Hanako have been married for so long?" During the chat, Shinji Hitoki once again asked his daughter and son-in-law about having a child, and the couple had been married for two years and had not yet given birth to an heir, which made Shinji Nishiki very worried.

Nobutada's father, Narita Ohki, was a prominent minister of the Niki family, and he was loyal to the family and died in battle for Shinji three years ago. In order to repay Oki Chengzhen's loyalty, although Renki Nobuzhen was a little too stoic, but Renki Shinji still insisted on accepting him as his son-in-law and adopted son. This Nobutaha Nishiki is now in his twenties, and he is really a high-spirited samurai with a strong body. However, Shinji Nitoki's words made him a little confused about how to answer.

"This ...... This, father-in-law, Hanako and I will work hard from now on. ”

"Hard work, hard work is not enough, what I want for my father is the result."

"This ...... This ......" Shinji Nitoki's successive questions made the stoic Nobutaha of Nishiki really don't know what to do.

"Father!" Hanako, who was accompanying her on the side, saw that her husband was embarrassed, so she hurriedly said to her father.

"Hahahaha, okay, okay, don't talk about it for my father, otherwise I'm going to make Hanako angry." Shinji Renki suddenly laughed and said, his daughter and son-in-law are so emotional, so he has to feel a lot more at ease.

"Lord, lord, no! The Ohno family has come to the main family. "Suddenly, the Miki Castle Castle Tower rushed in and informed Shinji of the Onono clan's attack, and this person was the only one who escaped from the Nishiki family gate.

"What! What the hell is going on? Shocked, Shinji Hitoki hurriedly asked, he really couldn't believe that the Ohno family dared to attack himself who was also a retainer of the Matsugami family.

"Lord Qi, the Ohno family attacked the family's gate today under the leadership of the head of the family, Ohno Heinobu, and the villain escaped by taking advantage of the chaos. The strength of the Ohno family is as many as forty or fifty people, the lord, the lord must be careful! ”

It seems that this ashigaru also escaped desperately, and as soon as he finished speaking, he passed out.

"Father, it seems that what he said is true, what should the family do?" Seeing that Ashishiki had fainted and died, Nobutada Nishiki hurriedly asked Shinji Nishiki about countermeasures.

"Hey~~~, it seems that the Ohno family is determined to capture my Renmu family this time, and now the enemy is outnumbered, and only the cage city is defending."

The strength of the Warring States Wealthy Clan comes from the territory, and if you lose the territory, you will lose your strength. Therefore, despite the fact that the Ohno family's forces were almost twice as large as their own, Shinji Nishiki decided to hold on to Miki Castle.

"Haha, father-sama, then I'll go gather Ashigaru." In recent years, Nobutada Nishiki has gradually been entrusted with important tasks by Shinji Nitoki, and at this moment, Shinji saw that Shinji Nishiki had a decision and immediately took action.

"Hanako, stay in the castle tower and leave the rest to me and Shin-sada." Shinji Niki instructed his daughter, who was already at a loss, and hurriedly ran towards the city.
