A general wearing rattan armor walked up to Shimazu Shuo and said respectfully: "General, they are all samurai who died in battle, do you want to bury them and let their souls return to heaven?" ”

"Not necessarily!"

Shimazu Shuo said lightly: "Where can weak and stupid samurai reach the kingdom of heaven, they die under the sword of their opponents and do not deserve respect at all. Leave them alone, leave their corpses to be eaten by the Bone Maiden, and order the samurai to step over their corpses. ”

The general's heart trembled, and he hurriedly retreated.

Shimazu Shuo, the lord of Motoyama Castle, has always been known for his coldness and ruthlessness in Motoyama Castle.

Towards noon, the army finally arrived at Kono Castle, only to see that the gates of the city were wide open, there was no one to guard at all, the houses on both sides of the street were closed, and there was not a single figure in sight, and occasionally one or two corpses could be seen lying on the side of the road, there were men and women, the male corpses died very miserably, and the female corpses died even more miserably.

Shimazu Shuo frowned, and sent a team of men to close the city gate and defend the city wall, while he led the rest of the people straight to the city lord's mansion.

"Ashina Mori meets General Shimazu!"

If Cao Wei was here, he would definitely find out that this Ashina Sheng clan was the old man who knelt in the City Lord's Mansion and gave him silver. At this time, Ashina Mori knelt on the ground again, and it was Shimazu Shuo who knelt.

Shimazu said lightly: "What happened to Kono Castle?" ”

"Yesterday a man came to look for General Otomo, and then General Otomo led the samurai in the city out, and he hasn't come back yet......"

"That idiot is dead, who is the person who is looking for Otomo's true righteousness?"

"Toyotomi Shunyi!" Ashina Mori said: "It is precisely because Toyotomi Shunyi came to General Otomo that General Otomo will lead his troops out of the city." ”

Shimazu Shuo stared at him and said seriously: "Are you sure it's Toyotomi Shunyi?" ”

Ashina Mori said: "General Shimazu knows, I used to be a house slave of the Toyotomi clan, and I watched Toyotomi Shunyi grow up, although he has changed a lot over the years, I will never admit my mistake."

Then a gang of robbers came to Kono Castle, they took advantage of the fact that there were not many samurai in Kono Castle, robbed everywhere, and even robbed the castle lord's mansion, Toyotomi Shunyi also came, I saw him, he also saw me, although he was masked I still recognized him, he must have recognized me, but I don't know why he didn't kill me. ”

"Interesting, could it be that Toyotomi Shunyi still wants to rebuild the Toyotomi clan? Otomo Makotoshi, that idiot, didn't kill Toyotomi Shunyi immediately after seeing him, but thought about catching them all, it's really stupid! At the beginning, I asked him to give Kono Castle to me, and together we could greatly increase our strength, but he just refused, and now that he is dead, Kono Castle is mine.

Toyotomi Shunyi? Did he think he could turn the clouds and rain on his own? I'm not that fool of Makotoshi Otomo, I won't give him a chance......"

Shimazu Shuo suddenly realized something as he spoke, his face became extremely ugly, and he said word by word: "You just said that Toyotomi Shunyi took advantage of the lack of defense of Kono Castle and robbed this place with robbers?" ”

Ashina Sheng nodded and said: "That's true, the people in the city have been robbed, and I moved out all the belongings in the treasury of the city lord's mansion and handed them over, so they were allowed to retreat." ”

Shimazu Shuo's face suddenly turned pale, and he turned his head to a samurai and said, "Hurry back to Motoyama Castle, if there is anything abnormal, come back quickly and tell you." ”

The samurai said yes, then got on his horse and galloped off.

Shimazu squirted his lips and looked up at the sun, feeling dazzling. Kono Castle has already shown some ruin after some looting, and this mountain castle is his roots, if it is swept away by bandits like Kono...... He couldn't help but start praying in his heart that something like that would never happen.

"No, it must be that I think too much, Toyotomi Shunyi is a fool, how could he have thought of it, as long as I send five hundred samurai, I can defend Benshan Castle......"

In the evening, a fast horse galloped to Kono Castle, and kept neighing: "Tell the general, Benshan Castle has been robbed, and the city lord's mansion has been ransacked......

In the castle lord's mansion, Shimazu Shuo let out a beast-like roar after receiving the news, and no longer had the previous calmness, he pulled out his knife and slashed at the things in the room, his face was so fierce that the guards were frightened.

"Toyotomi Shunyi, I will definitely kill you!"

……

……

West Garden City, with Kono and the mountain in a situation, coupled with the proximity to the sea, can be attacked, retreat can be escaped, the geographical location can be called superior. Both the former Toyotomi clan and the current Chiba clan have made this place their clan roots.

In the Daimyo's Mansion, an old man with white hair looked at the military newspaper on the table with a gloomy face, and there were several people standing in the room, some wearing armor, some wearing robes, everyone played an important role in Xiyuan City and was in an important position.

However, usually these big people who can shake Xiyuan City by stomping their feet don't even dare to breathe at this time, even the current head of the Chiba clan, Chiba Takeyoshi, stands respectfully below, waiting for the old man to speak.

The old man's name is Chiba Hara, and he is the head of the Chiba clan, many years ago, he led the samurai to slaughter the Toyotomi clan, and then reported to the shogunate to stabilize the situation, so that the Chiba clan became the new daimyo, one of the three largest daimyo in the Wa Kingdom.

Although he has stepped down as the head of the family, who in the Chiba clan dares to despise him? Years of majesty made him feel oppressive even if he didn't speak.

"Kono was lost, the lord of the castle was killed, and then it was plundered, Shimazu Shuo sent troops to reinforce, but the enemy seized the opportunity to break the mountain castle, is it time for the enemy to attack the idea of Nishien Castle next time? If this continues, I won't be able to keep my Chiba original head.

Shimazu Shuo has always been strong, but now he has sent a military report to ask for help, and it seems that the situation is indeed not good.

The person who led the army was Toyotomi Shunyi, very good, very good, I watched this child grow up, this child has been smart since he was a child, and he still doesn't admit defeat, he still hasn't changed for so many years, and he still doesn't admit defeat ......"

Chiba Hara's tone was light, like an old man recounting the past.

“…… Since he doesn't admit defeat, he will completely defeat him, and let the dissenting families in Xiyuan City know that the bloodline of the Toyotomi clan is not as good as the Chiba clan, so let them all take care of it, after all these years, there are still a few old guys who are unwilling to respect the Chiba clan as a big name, and some of the things they do behind their backs don't think I don't know?

In half a month it will be my 70th birthday, and as I get older, the more I live, the more unstable I become, and I don't know if I can die in bed in the end...... Which of you is going to bring the head of Toyotomi Shunyi to me for my birthday? ”

"I'll go!"

A young man looked up and said, "Grandpa, I will definitely bring back Toyotomi Shunyi's head as a birthday gift for you." ”

Chiba Yuan laughed heartily, but shook his head and said, "You can't leave these days, the young lady of the Akuzu family is in our Chiba clan, you have to go around more......"

"Let Chiba Noyoshi go, and I'll go too!"

A woman with a good face walked in from outside the door with a smile, she was fragrant and jade-skinned, her appearance was pure, she looked gentle and upright, but there was a bit of charm between the corners of her eyes, and Chiba Noyoshi's gaze never moved away from her from the moment he entered the door.

It stands to reason that it is a great sin for a woman to break into the council chamber at this time, but there is no dare in the room to come out and accuse her.

Because she is Akutsu Hui, the pearl of the Akutsu clan. I want to talk about "Da Ming Qingshi" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
