The Tsugaru family's Fukushima Castle was located at the northwest tip of Mutsu Province, and Kunohe Yasumin's army marched northwest from the Nanaoka Imperial Palace to Fukushima Castle, and according to the intelligence provided by the battlefield ghosts, it would take four days for Kunohe Yasumin's army to reach Fukushima Castle.

Compared to Fukushima Castle, which was far away, Ishikawa Castle was much closer, and the main army of the Yanhuang family, led by Bai Feng, arrived at Ishikawa Castle, which was surrounded by Wendell, before nightfall the next day, after two days of marching.

Ishikawa Castle, which had only been garrisoned by a standing army of 1,000, was able to expand its army to 6,000 in just four days under the active mobilization of Tsugaru Noshinobu, and the newly added 5,000 peasant soldiers did not even have decent weapons, and the role they could play was hardly worth mentioning.

"Thales, you send a samurai to Ishikawa Castle at once to inform Tsugaru of the destruction of the two armies of the Tsugaru family and the surrender of Numata Yumitsu and others, and also inform him of the conditions under which I promised Kanheunsunori, and let him open the gates and surrender by himself. ”

"My lord, what if Tsugaru is unwilling to surrender?"

"Isn't it a good thing that I am unwilling to surrender?" Facing Thales' surprised gaze, Bai Feng smiled slightly and said, "The reason why I agreed to the conditions of the Ping Gang is just to reduce the casualties of the family soldiers, not that I am willing to leave this hidden danger for the family. ”

"Lord, what do you mean......" Hearing Bai Feng say this, Thales, who had never been very accustomed to using conspiracy to solve problems, looked at Bai Feng with a cautious expression.

"Thales, I don't mean anything else, since I have promised Kanehei Tsunari, then I will fulfill my promise, and the persuasion of Tsugaru is the way I do it, and if he is not willing to accept it, it has nothing to do with me. ”

"My lord, I understand. Thales, who suddenly came to his senses, assured in his usual firm tone: "If Tsugaru is unwilling to surrender, I will personally kill Tsugaru and the family to completely eliminate this hidden danger that should not exist!"

"Thales, you have to understand a truth, no powerful force is established by conspiracy, whether it is the Yanhuang family here or the Roman city in the wild land, we must be above board if we want to be truly strong.

Perhaps, in the turbulent times of war, it is more difficult to choose such a path than other roads, but we will also gain more than other forces.

Therefore, I will not break any of my promises, and I will even try to fulfill every one of my promises, which is my principle, and this is the bearing that the city of Rome and the Yan Huang family must have, even if our enemies will increase as a result. ”

"Lord!" At this moment, Thales finally truly understood Bai Feng's good intentions, this simple warrior who was born as a gladiator, expressed his inner repentance for the belly of a gentleman who was jealous of the villain just now with his own almost choked voice.

"Okay, you're a warrior who bleeds and doesn't shed tears in the arena, don't let me down in you!" Bai Feng, who didn't care, just smiled and patted Thales on the shoulder, and instructed: "Hurry up and send the samurai into the city, it's getting dark." ”

"Yes!" Thales, who was moved by Bai Feng's shoulder patting, immediately took the order and turned around to give the order to the samurai.

With the arrival of the main army of the Yanhuang family, Wendell's encirclement on all sides became encircled on three sides, and the northern wall of Ishikawa Castle was surrounded by the newly arrived Yanhuang Standing Army, while Bai Feng himself remained on the periphery under the protection of the soldiers of the personal guard battalion.

At this time, even if Tsugaru swore to die and not surrender, it didn't make much sense, and the sky was about to fall, making it impossible for the main army of the Yanhuang family to attack Ishikawa Castle today, and this was a force majeure factor that no one could change.

If Tsugaru really chooses to defend to the end, then the Yanhuang Standing Army of the Yanhuang family will launch a full-scale attack on Ishikawa Castle early tomorrow morning, and Ishikawa Castle, which has only 1,000 standing troops and 5,000 peasant soldiers, is estimated to fall if it cannot resist even a morning.

The Yanhuang Standing Army, composed of 4,000 barbarian warriors and 6,000 longbowmen, was not an existence that a rabble of the 6,000 Tsugaru families had temporarily formed could resist, and even if the opponent had Ishikawa Castle to rely on, it would be impossible to stop the attack of the Yanhuang Standing Army.

The longbowmen had a range of up to 400 meters, enough for them to cover the walls of Ishikawa Castle with a rain of arrows from a distance of 300 meters from the walls.

The war situation is nine out of ten, so Bai Feng doesn't have to worry too much, he just needs to wait quietly for the result in the distance, everything else has been handed over to Sanada Nobuyuki and Sanada Nobuyoshi, who makes them the cutting-edge generals that Bai Feng values.

Thales, who carried out the order, quickly arranged for a samurai to enter the castle, a mid-level samurai dressed in the samurai uniform of the southern family, riding a dwarf horse native to Mutsu and carrying two flags behind him, and rode away in the direction of the gate of Ishikawa Castle.

It was also a tradition for the warring sides of the Yamato Empire to send envoys to each other, and the samurai who were tasked with the task of envoys would usually carry two flags behind their backs, one representing their own family and the other a white flag representing the status of the envoys.

Seeing that this samurai entered within a hundred meters of the walls of Ishikawa Castle, the hanging heart in Bai Feng's chest was also relaxed, and the Tsugaru family's bow and arrow Ashigaru did not stop the envoy from approaching, which showed that Tsugaru still had plans to negotiate with him.

Sure enough, when the samurai arrived at the gate of Ishikawa Castle, the gate of Ishikawa Castle was opened, and the samurai who entered the castle through the gate stayed in the castle for about five minutes, then came out of the gate again, and rode all the way back to the place where Hakumine was.

"Lord Yanhuang, the governor of the Tsugaru family, Tsugaru is willing to hand over Ishikawa Castle immediately, but he has one condition: he wants to take with him 1,000 soldiers loyal to the Tsugaru family in Ishikawa Castle when he leaves Mutsu Province. ”

"You go again and tell Tsugaru that I promise him this condition, he can take away a thousand soldiers from Ishikawa Castle, but I also have one condition, that is, he must leave Mutsu Province within three days, and he will never be allowed to return to Mutsu Province!"

"Hey!" the samurai turned around and sped away towards the gates of Ishikawa Castle again.

This time, the samurai entered the city in less than a minute, and came out of the city gate, in fact, without him coming back to report, Bai Feng already knew what Tsugaru's choice was, because the closed gate of Ishikawa Castle was completely open, and this was Tsugaru's choice.
