Wasuka Masakatsu looked at the burning sky with a slight smile on his face in front of him, and said with a big laugh: "This place is adjacent to the country of Iga, if it is a ninja from Iga, with his exquisite ninjutsu, he can make me and others suffer, how can they try to fight with us in vain after a clumsy ambush." ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky will also think back to the battle that happened just now, these so-called ninjas really did not take the ninja tactics to the extreme, if the Iga ninja who is good at assassination and lurking only has this level, I am afraid that the Iga country will be annexed by other nearby Gyeonggi territories early.

Wasuka Masakatsu then continued: "These ninjas should be the private ninjas and warriors of the Asai family, but I didn't expect the information in my family to be leaked, and the effect of this batch of iron cannons on Yokoyama Castle made the 'Omi Eagle' fearful, which can be difficult for you and me." ”

Then Wasuka Masakatsu changed the topic and asked at Burning Sky, "How did you find out that those coolies are samurai?"

After hearing this, Burning Sky said with a smile: "That kind of momentum that instantly merges with the sword when you get the weapon, if you are not a person from the martial arts, how can an ordinary peasant soldier have this kind of momentum!" ”

After hearing this, Wasuka Masakatsu continued: "After these people have transported the iron cannons to Yokoyama Castle, I will ask the lord to organize these people into packers, who will be responsible for transporting the supplies from Yokoyama Castle to several nearby villages, as well as the grain collected from each village. ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky thought for a while and said, "What Wasuka-sama said is reasonable, and I will send a request to Kinoshita-sama together with my lord, but I have a different way of dealing with those Sunfu samurai. ”

Seeing that Wasuka Masakatsu did not say anything against it, Burning Sky opened his mouth and continued: "We coincide with troubled times, the people of the samurai family are fighting each other to expand the territory or to protect the territory, and the court minister marries his daughter because there is no one to support him in the troubled times, and even gives his young son to be raised. ”

After hearing this, Wasuka Masakatsu nodded and said, "If Mingshamen has other plans, I can also propose it to the lord, so that we can discuss in detail the final ownership and disposal of these coolies." Then Wasuka Masakatsu said to the burning sky again: "Lord Murai has handed over the identity deeds of these people to me, and what will happen to these people after that is up to the lord." ”

After the two finished talking, they returned to the team and sorted out the team, and Wasuka Masakatsu and his party hit the road again and walked towards Yokoyama Castle. On the way back, Wasuka Masakatsu quickly spread the news to Yokoyama Castle, and Kinoshita Hideyoshi increased the defense of Yokoyama Castle while sending samurai and ashigaru to set up checkpoints on the road to Kita-Omi to prevent the Asai family from secretly sending ninjas again, and Bailiqi attacked the Oda family's army and other teams.

A few days later, Wasuka Masakatsu and his entourage successfully returned to Yokoyama Castle, which was still being repaired, and Kinoshita Hideyoshi personally went down to the castle to greet the returning Wasuka Masakatsu after hearing the report of his samurai. But to Burning Sky was a little surprised, Kinoshita Hideyoshi looked at his eyes, which were not as sharp as before, and had more of a show of goodwill.

Kinoshita Hideyoshi first expressed his concern for Masakatsu Wasuka and once again condemned Asai Nagamasa, dispatching the hatred of the surrounding Ashigaru towards Asai Nagamasa. Then Kinoshita Hideyoshi said to the burning sky standing behind: "Mingshamen broke the strength of Asai 500 troops with less than 100 people, and I have reported to His Highness Nobunaga the brave people who showed bravery in the cage battle before, among which Mingshamen was rewarded with a sword by the lord for the brave performance of the cage castle last time, and he also has 50 Yongle Tongbao. ”

After that, Kinoshita Hideyoshi handed a beautifully decorated Taisaber to the stunned Kinkyo with both hands in front of many Ashigaru and samurai who repaired the castle walls, and Akiyoshi looked at Kinoshita Hideyoshi with a smile on his face in front of him, and under the reminder of Fushiwa Akijiro, he hurriedly took the Taidao handed by Kinoshita Hideyoshi with both hands.

Then Kinoshita Hideyoshi asked the attendants behind him to put the box containing the fifty open Yongle Tongbao up and put it in front of the burning air, and the burning empty stared blankly at the real fifty Yongle Tongbao, and then said to the surrounding ashigaru and peasant soldiers: "The battle of Hengshan City, if you don't sacrifice your life and forget death, you may not be able to survive in the next, today the lord rewarded me with fifty Kaiyuan Tongbao, which is not meant by me, but to tell you that this family has never been bad to meritorious ministers; That being the case, in my eyes, you are all meritorious people, so I decided to take this fifty Guan Yongle Tongbao to buy some sake, so that the meritorious people of this family can relax a little after a busy day, which is also a little bit of my heart for you. ”

After saying that, he tied the sword to his waist, and handed over the knife that had followed him for a while to Mingshan. Then Burning Sky said to Kinoshita Hideyoshi: "I hope that what Kinoshita-sama said can be handed over to Kinoshita-sama to do, and I hope Kinoshita-sama will not refuse!" ”

Kinoshita Hideyoshi was a little stunned, but after just a breath, Kinoshita Hideyoshi reacted and said to the respectful and pleading Kanku: "In this case, I will take over this task, and I hope that Ming Shamen will continue to work hard and spread the reputation of my family throughout Japan." ”

The two then looked at each other and smiled, turned around and returned to Yokoyama Castle together. And the surrounding Ashigaru and samurai also shouted the names of the two of them.

Kinoshita Hideyoshi walked towards the castle tower with the samurai and said to the sky: "Mingshamon, this time the lord has not only sent some rewards back, but also a friend of yours who has come with him!" ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky said to Kinoshita Hideyoshi: "Could it be that the lord sent people to support us and others?" ”

After hearing this, Kinoshita Hideyoshi said with a smile: "Although the situation in Nagashima and Seshu has always been not optimistic, the lord has made up his mind to first sweep away the two vicious dogs in front of his house, and then suppress those lawless evil monks and believers... Mingshamen, I lost my words, I'm so sorry! ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky lowered his head and said: "Kinoshita-sama, it's okay, thousands of monks in thousands of worlds, and they are not from the same world, Kinoshita-sama doesn't need to be taboo!" ”

As he spoke, Kinoshita Hideyoshi and Yakora arrived in front of the castle tower, and Akira fixed his eyes on the fact that the elite samurai in front of the castle tower was Hidetaka Kawajiri. Before Burning Sky walked out, Hidetaka Kawajiri had already walked quickly in front of Burning Sky, patted Burning Sky on the shoulder and said, "Mingshamen, I haven't seen you for many days, but are you okay?" ”

After that, he tied the Tai Knife that was briefly tied to his waist, and said while tying it: "Recently, the Lord sent me to find out the enemy situation in the area of Long Island, and I just returned to Gifu a few days ago, and I have already heard of your name of 'Pig Tu', you really didn't let me look at it wrong!" ”

After Kawajiri Hidetaka helped Burning Sky to tidy up the sword, he looked at Burning Sky with his chin and said with a laugh: "Your sand gate is so untidy, not only the Dharma robe is tattered, but even the white monk's turban is dirty and black. ”

Kinoshita Hideyoshi on the side instantly understood what Kawajiri Hidetaka meant, and immediately said to the attendants behind him, "Go and prepare a new set of robes and headscarves." ”
