After thinking about it for a while, Honma Toshitai finally couldn't help but speak, "Everyone, if you want to go to the castle cage castle, I will ask to lead the family's troops in the cage castle of Kuchi Castle. ”

"You can directly reach Kuchi Castle from Kamo Castle and Yanliangjin Bay, and you can't watch Kuchi Castle being captured by the Tsugawa family!" Honma Shitai said slowly.

After listening to Honma Tokitai's words, Honma Takaji couldn't help but say, "But if Tokitaya leads the army back, the strength of the city will be reduced, and when the Tsugawa family attacks, we will be at a disadvantage in terms of the number of ashigaru." ”

"That's it! Wouldn't it be better for the Tsugawa family to break through each of them? Honma Sadanao on the side also said loudly.

After listening to the words of the two, Honma Shitai suddenly became angry. Made, the city of the two of you is in the rear, and defending the city of Aoshang is equivalent to defending your territory, but what about the city of your own family? If the Tsugawa family captures Kuchi Castle and there is no castle, what is the use of me even if I live?

Thinking of this, Honma Shitai suddenly became angry, "Honma Takaji, Honma Zhenzhi, you two don't have backache when you stand and talk." If Kuchi Castle were your domain, would you also abandon Kuchi Castle to defend it??? ”

"You!" Honma Takaji suddenly pointed at Honma Tokitai with an angry face.

Honma Tokitai and the others were originally gathered together temporarily, and if they couldn't achieve unanimity with the outside world, then the coalition would naturally fall apart. The alliance of everyone is not stable, and looking at the situation, before the Tsugawa family can fight, the coalition will be disbanded.

Honma Taitaka saw that the atmosphere was a little tense, and although he had the heart to say something to relieve it, he swallowed back when the words came to his mouth.

At this moment, Honma Masaharu outside the castle tower strode in and said to everyone, "Taikoden, father, and gentlemen, Shibuya Masamui, the head of the Shibuya family, asks to see you." ”

"Shibuya Shinsei ???"

"The Shibuya family was destroyed by the Tsugawa family, wasn't Shibuya Makiyoshi captured? How did you come here? ”

As soon as they heard that Shibuya was true, everyone in the hall suddenly said with doubts on their faces.

Honma Taigao thought for a moment, and then said, "Let's let Shibuya Makiyo come in and ask about the situation first." ”

"Hmm." And all the people in the temple agreed.

A quarter of an hour later, the dusty Shibuya Masaaki entered the castle tower under the leadership of Honma Masaharu.

As soon as he saw the Honma Tai Gao people sitting in the hall, Shibuya Makiyo seemed to have found an organization, and said loudly, "Tai Gao Dai, I finally saw you in the next place, woo." ”

The Shibuya family was also a subordinate of the Honma family like the Akami family before, so after seeing the Honma Taigao, Shibuya Makiyoshi was immediately excited.

Honma Yasutaka hurriedly asked, "Shibuya-sama, weren't you captured by the Tsugawa family?" ”

"It's hard to put it into words............" After hearing Honma's words, Shibuya Makiyo shook his head and said with a painful expression.

...........

On the evening of September 22.

In a small courtyard in Ninomaru in Kamo Castle, Shibuya Makiyo sat in the courtyard with a desperate face, looking up at the bright crescent moon in the starry sky, and couldn't help but shed tears of remorse.

"The ancestors of the Shibuya family, Mankimaru is ashamed of his family!" Shibuya Makiyoshi choked up and said, "Mankimaru was confused for a while, and actually listened to the nonsense of the Tsugawa family, so that the family's sixty-year foundation was ruined in one fell swoop. Wanxi Pill has no face to see the ancestors again, and is willing to apologize for his sins with death! ”

As he spoke, Shibuya Makiyo looked around, but it was a pity..... No knife was found.

"Is it so hard to even die?" Shibuya is in despair.

The two Ashigaru of the Tsugawa family not far away looked at Shibuya Makiyo with pity, and one of them said, "Yoshichiro, this person is really stupid, if it weren't for him, we'd be blowing a cold wind outside the city now." ”

"yes!" Yoshichiro nodded and said, "Along the way, many people got sick, and I heard that more than half of Yagyu-sama's ashigaru was sick and couldn't even walk. ”

"The food is almost eaten, and I heard that Lord Yamamoto has asked Lord Motoyama to return to Minato City with the sailors to transport food. Now there is only enough food in Kamo City for 10 days, and if the Lord of the Mountain doesn't hurry up and bring the food, we will all starve to death here. Yoshiro continued.

The other ashigaru looked around cautiously, and then said softly, "I heard that the Honma family on the island has formed a coalition and is stationed in the nearby Osajo Castle, and today the samurai lords are very worried that the enemy will come over, because the main family does not have much combat power to block the enemy's attack now." ”

"Fortunately, the enemy didn't attack, otherwise I would have wanted to escape!"

"You're crazy!" Yoshichiro said excitedly, "If you run away, you will be beheaded." “

"Hehe, I'm just talking." The other ashiki scratched his head and said with a smile.

Yushiro scolded with a smile, "Just like you, I didn't know what luck I had at the beginning, and I was selected to be a garrison achigaru." ”

"Hehe, you don't know. Kira-sama and I belong to the same village. Ha ha! ”

"I see."

"Okay, let's not talk about it, it's time for you to be on duty tonight, take care of this person! I don't know how to break a hole in the backyard, don't let this person escape, otherwise Lord Kira will blame us, and we will suffer. Ashigaru continued.

"I know, I know!" Yoshichiro said disappreciatively.

Although the conversation between the two ashigaru was quiet, it was still heard by Shibuya Makiyo, a person with a heart.

"There's a hole in the backyard???" Shibuya Makiyo was suddenly happy in his heart, although he wanted to run out of the hole in the backyard immediately, but the two ashigaru in front of him made Shibuya Makiyo dispel the idea.

"Looks like we'll have to wait for an opportunity."

Two hours later, the sound of snoring with Shichiro could be heard from time to time in the silent night.

Shibuya opened the door cautiously, and then quietly walked past Yoshichiro, sneakily walking towards the backyard. When he saw that there was really a big hole in the wall of the backyard, Shibuya was immediately excited.

"Haha! It's a great way to go! Tsugawa family, wait for me, I, Shibuya Makiyo, will definitely take revenge! Shibuya Makiyo looked back at the direction of the castle tower and said indignantly. With that, Shibuya Makiyo slipped out of the cave and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

And at this time, Yoshichiro, who was sleeping with his eyes closed in the small courtyard, suddenly opened his eyes.

At this moment, a man dressed as a samurai came out of the room next to him and came to Yoshiro's side.

"Kamo-sama, Shibuya Makiyo has already escaped." Looking at Kamo Jiuqing in front of him, he said cautiously with Shichiro.

Kamo Hisaaki nodded, patted Yoshichiro's shoulder, and said with a smile, "This is a good job, let's go to Lord Kira to receive the reward later." ”

"Thank you, Gamo-sama!" Yoshichiro said with a grateful face, and strode away after speaking.

After leaving with Shichiro, Gamo Hisaaki clasped his hands in front of his chest and grinned, "Shibuya Makiyo, don't let me down." In order for you to escape, I have suffered a lot of sins by digging this big hole, and my hands still hurt to this day.........
