Chapter 44: More than One Traitor
The plan was gradually set over the course of the next few days. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
During this time, Matsuura Sungoro went to the dilapidated "mountain vegetable house" in different capacities.
Matsuyama Shigeharu used to be an artist in Kaimachi, and he had a wide range of connections. After joining the Miyoshi family, his territory was all in, so now he is reluctant to retreat to Shikoku with him, but to return to Kaijie Town to avoid the limelight.
Kosai Naganshin is quite famous in, and there are also some remnants. His ancestors were from Shikoku, but after coming to, they formed an independent branch and competed with Shikoku's own family for legitimacy, and the relationship was very poor.
Needless to say, Ishikawa Goemon is gone.
In short, they are all people who hide in and oppose the Oda family.
Although the information obtained from various sources is different, it is generally certain that the new Kaimachi of the Oda family, an unknown person named "Kinoshita Hideyoshi", has infiltrated lightly, probably trying to play some tricks of "micro-service private interview".
So Matsuura Sungoro immediately decided on an assassination plan.
Matsuyama used his former connections to exert influence at the upper echelons of the Kaimachi Guild.
Ishikawa was in charge of finding out the location.
Xiangxi dispatched as the nominal mastermind.
Matsuura encouraged a group of people from Izumi to be the vanguard.
In the end, the effect was to let everyone in know that the Kaimachi merchants, together with the people of Izumikuni, fell to the Miyoshi family and assassinated the Kaicho government of the Oda family.
In this way, under the pressure of public opinion, Oda's side is bound to punish him severely.
Most of the merchants in Harakai Town, as well as most of the wealthy families of Izumi, had some doubts about whether they were enemies of Oda. But after creating the established facts, these people are equivalent to surrendering their names, and they can't get off the thief ship anymore!
If they are instigated and instigated, a staunch Waizumi anti-Oda force will gradually be formed.
And who will be the leader of this power?
Since the main force is the people of Izumi and not the Miyoshi remnants, Matsuyama Shigeji and Kasai Nagasobu are not qualified, and at most they can only be deputies. Not to mention Ishikawa. Miyoshi Masayasu originally had this status, but he didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong, and he was unwilling to stand up, but was only willing to hide in the background and pay for it.
After thinking about it, Sungoro Matsuura was pleasantly surprised to find that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him. In the future, under the banner of Miyoshi's successor, it is possible to recruit those who are dissatisfied with Oda to come over.
Of course, when the Oda army came, he still had to hide back in the mountains to live a hard life, but anyway, after so many years, he was used to it, so it didn't matter.
Watching a group of noisy drunks swaggering by, Sungoro Matsuura almost couldn't help but laugh.
Today he was a painstaking man, and the amount of alcohol was well controlled, and most of the people were not clear-headed, but they were not completely incapacitated. The two who are really drunk and can't get up don't affect the overall situation.
Of course, it can't really be relied on by them, and it was the subordinates of Kasai Naganobu and Ishikawa Goemon who were actually responsible for the assassination, and Matsuyama Shigeji would find a way to put the Kaimachi Guild on their backs with a heavier suspicion. And not to mention this group of Hequan Hao clans, do they still have the ability to prove their innocence after waking up? I can't say that I was deceived, just now I clearly and publicly said "Oda retainer Kinoshita so-and-so", who told you not to listen well?
There may be people who will resent it afterwards, but they have already been charged with the crime of killing Kaimachi, so what can they do except make mistakes?
In the past few days, Sungoro Matsuura has met with Miyoshi Masayasu a total of four times, reported on the plan and progress, and took out a total of nearly 10,000 yuan worth of gold. With these openings, the division of labor and responsibility of each person has been done very smoothly.
Coming out of the sake house, it is only a few hundred steps away from the target temple, and the road is also very flat, there are no big buildings to block it, and there are some low houses that will not block the view at all. In the moonlight, Sungoro Matsuura, who was carrying torches, could faintly see two teams that were also moving, and he guessed that they should be the subordinates of Kasai Naganobu and Ishikawa Goemon, so he was even more convinced that the operation would be successful.
"Everybody, keep up the work! Our revenge is today! ”
He shouted two words, but received no decent response.
At best, it's just someone shouting "oh oh" or some nonsense that you don't understand at all.
It seems that they have indeed reached the extreme, and it is estimated that they will fall asleep immediately when they lie down.
But isn't that just right?
Because the temple has arrived!
At this time, no one would be able to distinguish between sect and history, in short, it was a small-scale temple, with only one courtyard, doors on both sides, and the Buddhist hall and dormitory were in it, and it looked like it could only accommodate twenty or thirty people at most.
These people who came today are enough to surround them, and they will definitely not be able to escape!
The first to go up was Dr. Yasuda Terada. It seems that he is the most drunk person, and he moves quite freely, but his mind is not very clear. I saw him rush to the gate of the small temple in three or two steps, and took advantage of the momentum to fly up and kick at the temple gate, making a muffled sound, and at the same time shouting and scolding:
"The coward inside, come out to Lao Tzu! This is Matsuura-sama's team! ”
Sungoro Matsuura couldn't help but shake his head. What kind of assassination is this? Anyone within a radius of miles can be recruited! Fortunately, proper arrangements had been made before, and even if the Oda family's Kaimachi was immediately alerted, it would be impossible to escape.
He didn't suspect that there was something wrong with Dr. Terada. I didn't think about it at all. Terada's words and deeds have always been very trusted, and today's performance can also be explained by the drink.
I don't doubt it, but I can't let it go. Matsuura glanced at the dozens of crumbling drunks, stepped forward and grabbed Dr. Terada, patted him on the shoulder, stuffed a sobering pill into the other party's mouth, and said in a low voice:
"Sober up, you're going to invite messy people!"
People who don't have a clear position are still drunk, but Terada is the most reliable and the most capable of fighting, and Matsuura has long decided that if there needs to be a subordinate who knows a little more secret, it must be Terada.
"Huh? Matsuura-sama, why are you stopping me, watching me kick open this broken door, go in and kill the upper and lower doors......"
The sobering pill was bought from the famous Kyoto doctor Qu Naase Michizo, and the effect seemed to be quite obvious, and Dr. Terada Yasudai only said two nonsense words, and gradually quieted down.
But Matsuura walked to the side.
Because he had already seen that Ishikawa Goemon and Kasai Naganobu came over with people!
When the three of them met, they only showed their eyes, and everything was silent.
Ishikawa showed his old job. I saw that the man stretched his ape arm, and with a gentle throw, the hook and claw tied to the rope were fixed to the top of the wall. He grabbed the rope, ran two steps, suddenly exerted his strength, took a step on the wall, and jumped over the two (about 3.5 meters) high courtyard walls.
In one go, quietly, if it weren't for the wrong occasion, Matsuura couldn't help but want to say hello.
After a while, the door opened quietly.
Matsuura and Xiangxi outside, although they couldn't look at each other before, couldn't help but smile at each other at this time.
Matsuura Sungoro stood aside very respectfully, and watched as Kasai Naganobu brought people in first, and then-
Suddenly take a big step and slide back the same way!
It happened so suddenly, it took Xiangxi Changxin a while to react, and at this time, two figures under the moonlight had already run away, let alone stop it immediately.
This sense of smell is too sharp, isn't it? What went wrong?
As for Ishikawa, not to mention, he had just come out of the door at the moment, and he was also at a loss.
The plan that went so smoothly in the first few days came to this last step, but it failed?
The two looked at each other, and each was stunned for a moment before thinking of leading someone to pursue.
"Hurry up, catch up with the guy in front!" In a hurry, Ishikawa could only make the most modest decision.
"Bow and arrow, bow and arrow! Hurry up and shoot with long-range weapons! "Xiangxi is even more outrageous. With this visibility, the probability of shooting with a bow and arrow is negligible.
It's just that they were in a state of scrambling and didn't last long.
Because at this time a chant sounded in front of him:
"The two of you are not in a hurry, the head of Sungoro Matsuura, I, Dr. Yasuda Terada, have taken it down!"
After all, there is still a person who has never done anything else, and has always stared at Sungoro Matsuura.
