Just as the Takeda Army was completely withdrawing from the various castles in the small prefectures, the defeat of the Hojo clan also spread to Haikou Castle.

"Lord of the Pavilion, Lord Hojo Clan's state is too young to underestimate the enemy." Kansuke Yamamoto sat in the big room for a long time and said this.

"Hey, Shin Lian, you go to Odawara Castle once. Tell Hojo to mourn him. "Takeda Harunobu is glad that the Hojo clan is fortunately not the young master of the Hojo family, otherwise his daughter would have been a widow long ago if she got married!

"Yes." Takeda Noburu was also called everywhere by Takeda Harunobu.

"My lord, the family needs to recuperate now, and I can't help the Hojo family avenge." Sitting at the door, the Racecourse Shinbo can also be regarded as expressing his opinion.

"Father, after the death of the master, the strength of the family has also decreased a lot, and the Red Reserve Army has been wiped out." When Takeda Yoshinobu thought about it, he felt that if he inherited the Takeda family, it would be a nightmare!

"I didn't expect Dr. Uesugi to nail all the Hojo Army's war dead to wooden stakes, and now Hachimangahara and Tsumame Mountain are full of corpses. The footmen are expected to spread the word to the nations. Takeda Nobuyhiro also shook his head. The Takeda family's financial situation was poor, and it was difficult to form a second Red Reserve Army. Not to mention the death of a large number of war horses, there are also quite a few samurai on horseback.

Coincidentally, Nagano Ye listened to the informant of his son-in-law Kohata Keijun, and then drove Kohata Kenshige and his son, who were related to the Takeda family, out of Kunimine Castle in Ueno Province. However, Kohata Kenshige was not a fool, and he gathered his old troops and left Ueno Province with 500 cavalry to join the Takeda family.

"My lord, since the Red Reserve Legion has all been killed, then the family should revive the Red Reserve Legion." Kansuke Yamamoto saw Kenshige Kohata, who was also sitting at the door.

"Kansuke, the family's red reserve has been wiped out, how can it be reorganized?" Harunobu Takeda also has no confidence in restructuring.

"The five hundred cavalry of Kohata Kendai can be used as the core of the new Red Reserve Legion." Kansuke Yamamoto dispelled Takeda Harunobu's concerns at this time.

"Since the family can't attack the Nagao family at will, then take the Ueno country!" Harunobu Takeda was still ambitious at this time.

"Yes!" The retainers were as happy as if they had seen hope.

"Lord, do you want to send Princess Kyoko to the Wife and Daughter Mountain?" Kansuke Yamamoto knew that Yoshinobu Takeda had a good relationship with Iitomi Torama, and if the relationship between himself and the future family governor was stiff, life would not be easy.

"Anyway, it's a mixed meal here in my family, send her back to her parents' house!" Takeda Harunobu originally wanted to marry her to Kohata Kenshige's eldest son, but now that he has been entrusted with important tasks, it is useless.

"Yes. Nachen will definitely bring the remains of the Iitomi Military Department and others back to the Kai Kingdom. "Kansuke Yamamoto is already sure, after the last contact with Asada, I know that Asadai will only give three corpses.

In this way, Takeda Harunobu returned to Kai Province. And Yamamoto Kansuke also took Kyoko Takeda and his party to arrive outside Kashiwai Castle, where Asadachi was staying, half a month later.

At this time, Saito Asanobu had already transferred from 3,000 koku from Akada Castle to 5,000 koku from Saijo Castle (Tsumiyamayama) in Nosui County, Okushinomizu, and possessed nearby Maki Castle (the former lord of the castle, Kasaka Chikumaemo, was transferred to Haikou Castle, and the castle was still Kasuga Toratsune), Katsuyama Castle, Omine Castle, Zenko-ji Temple, and Kashiwa Castle. The territory of the Kakizaki Kei family was very close to Akata Castle, and the 3,000 stones of Akata Castle were sealed to the Kakizaki Kei family. And Ichikawa Tengruka, the lord of Ichikawa Tenru, the lord of Ibatami Castle in Takai County, was driven out of Honmaru Seppuku after learning that he had been abandoned by the Takeda family. Takai-gun's 500 stone of Needlei Castle and 500 stone of Sendang Castle were given to Yataro Kojima; Jin Jin Yoshiro was transferred to Suzaka Castle for 3,000 stones.

This time, the referrals were all retainers who obeyed the orders of the Nagao family, and Yang Beizhong and the others could be said to have nothing (did not send troops, did not obey the order to send troops). The Nagao family can now be said to be united except for Yangbei, and the reason for this is that they have opened up their territory. And Muto Kibei, who was sent to Kasuga Mountain Castle by the Takeda family, was finally sent to Kashiwa Castle, and the dragon girl didn't want to be told that she killed the hostages or something, so she handed over the hostages to the court.

"Repair the doctor's hall, long time no see." After seeing Asada and the others who came out of the city, Yamamoto Kansuke first greeted Asada.

"Are you here to see my niece this time?" Chaoding can only rely on his memory now to think of his sister who saw a few times when he was a child.

"Yes, the foreign minister came this time to send Princess Kyoko back to her parents' house." Kansuke Yamamoto motioned for a maid to close the shutters of the palanquin.

As the curtain was drawn, a little girl who was white and tender and a little cute walked out. But the first thing she did was to run to the crowd opposite, and hide behind Guidie. At this time, Gui Die was wearing a red kimono, and since he stayed in Bai Ti City, he and Chao Ding had a rainy day with Chao Ding, and Chao Ding directly called Gui Die his concubine (although after the news reached the spring mountain city, a certain dragon girl was very unhappy and didn't feel any problem).

"Are you Kyoko?" Although Chao Ding is not very good at coaxing children, he is not very old, he is only over twenty years old, and he is still very handsome.

"Yes." Little Lori nodded.

"Why are you avoiding them so much?" Chaoding walked up to Kyoko's side and asked softly.

"Because they all bullied me." Although little Lori's voice was very soft, she cried after she finished speaking. Chaoding had no choice but to let Guidie carry her to Honmaru first.

"Alright, the body you wanted." Asadaki motioned to Ashigaru, who was on standby, and the six of them carried the body covered with a white cloth in groups of two to Yamamoto Kansuke.

"The remains have been disposed of by the monks in Zenko Temple, so you can confirm the bodies of Iitomi Huchang, Iitomi Masashi, and Mieda Shounao." Chao Ding thought of something after looking at the five maids beside the sedan chair.

"Then thanks to the repairman." Kansuke Yamamoto left behind the maid and the sedan chair, and the three bodies were carried by the ashigaru and slowly left the sight of the asada.

"Gao Guang, you let them stay at Ninomaru's and I'll be here soon." Asada wanted to ask who Kyoko was bullied by, he was already a big name of the party, and the name of the Uesugi family was also broken out by him. If there are still people bullying the people of the Uesugi family, then you can only be polite.

"Yes." Hojo Takahiro knew it as soon as he heard this, and he had just vaguely heard what Kyoko said. He also knew he couldn't let them run away later.

However, during this month, Asadashi did not participate in the New Year's evaluation and other activities held in Kasuga Mountain Castle, and waited for Kyoko in Okushinano. And before that, he destroyed all the 'masterpieces' that Hachimanwara and his wife and daughter Yamashita had made by themselves. All the bodies were buried in their place, and the soil was fertile.

"Kyoko, stop crying. Your uncle is here. Guidie coaxed Kyoko, who had never received maternal love in his arms, in Honmaru's room.

"Yes." Kyoko also cried here, and after she was fed by a wet nurse in the Awagasakikan, she was handed over to Takeda Harunobu's main room, Mrs. Sanjo, to raise. At that time, he was called by Mrs. Sanjo as a servant. Takeda Harunobu didn't care when he found out, because he wanted to be friends with the Imagawa family. And she also heard from her wet nurse that her mother was the sister of the current Uesugi family governor Uesugi Asada.

"Kyoko is not afraid, and no one will bully you when you come back." Asahi sat down in front of Guidie and Kyoko.

"Will the maids who have been bullying me also be punished?" Kyoko looked at Asada, who was wearing a black court dress, with two big eyes that were red from crying.

"That's natural, as a member of the Uesugi family, if you're bullied, you're going to fight back. There is a famous saying in the Ming Kingdom: 'It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.' The same applies to women. Chao Ding looked at the Kyoko in front of him who was snuggled in Guidie's arms, and thought of this famous sentence.

"Three of the five maids were sent by Madame Sanjo, and two of them I don't know." Kyoko only knew that three of them had been seen in Mrs. Sanjo's residence, and that there were two good-looking maids who had really not seen them.

"I see, the maid's words are in Wakamatsu City. And there is also this Guidie sister to take care of you, and if you are not satisfied, there is also a sister Aya. Asada felt that only these two people could take care of her, and he had wasted almost two months in Shinano Province. He knew the ability of Ota Shimasa, and let him guard Aizu himself was 10,000 at ease.

"Thank you, uncle." Kyoko thinks Guidie is good, and likes to stick to her.

"Then you can rest here, and tomorrow we will leave for Echigo Hojo Castle." Asadachi thought that Hojo Takahiro still had an 'enclave' in Echigo.

"Husband, let's get busy first, the concubine will take care of the princess." Guidie knew that Kyoko had no mother, so she had to be a 'stepmother', but this stepmother had to be a good ......

"Yes." Asadaki immediately went to Ninomaru. I'm going to interrogate the five maids.

Hojo Takahiro finally saw Asadachi when he waited for a long time in Ninomaru, and hurriedly went over to greet him: "My lord, there are already two hundred saber ashigaru standby inside and outside here, and they can't run." ”

"Well, let's go." After looking around, Asada and Hojo Takashiro walked in front of the five maids.

"Repair the doctor's palace, we are from Kyoto, you are a famous family and should be knowledgeable, and you still don't want us to serve the princess?" An old maid stepped forward and began to question Chaoding. Completely unaware of their situation.

"Well, I'm the head of the Uesugi family, a branch of the famous Fujiwara clan. However, do you have any of the princesses who bullied your family in the country of Kai?! Chao Ding kicked the old maid away, he didn't have any idea of respecting the old and loving the young now. Since they can even bully a child into a pile of complete strangers, what can be seen from what they have done?

"Duan Zang, you should also be careful, there may be ninjas from the Takeda family inside." Chao Ding whispered to Kato Duanzo beside him.

"Yes." Kato Duanzo also began to be vigilant. He's an upper ninja, and it's effortless to deal with a bunch of middle ninjas or lower ninjas.

"No! This is unjust! The old maid knew what she had done, but she couldn't admit it.

"It's okay, it's okay not to admit it. Come on, hold them all up. Chao Ding thought of a very interesting thing - pulling nails.

"Let us go!" The five maids were each held up by ten ashigaru, and then Asadachi let five ashigaru with tongs walk in front of them.

"What are you going to do?" The old maid knew at a glance that something was wrong, and now this was not the country of Kai, but Oshinano! No one will call the shots for them.

"Pull them out one by one." Chao Ding sat on the mazar on the side and watched them pull out their nails. The first to be plucked was the old maid.

"Don't!" The old maid screamed and had her first fingernail pulled out - the nail of her right index finger.

"Ahh After kicking away Ashigaru, who was about to pull out his nails, the two maids snatched their knives and rushed towards Asada.

"Be careful, lord!" Hojo Takahiro and Hojo Takamasa on the side saw it and hurriedly ran to the front of Asadaki to draw a knife to block it, and Kato Duanzo also punched one of the female ninja in the stomach in an instant, and then used the saber in the hand of the fallen female ninja to kill another female ninja who was only seven steps away from the Hojo Takahiro brothers.

"What a guts!" After taking out the poison from the mouth of the fallen female ninja, Kato Duanzo kicked her in the abdomen.

"The ninjas of the Mochizuki family won't tell you what they want to know!" The female ninja said through gritted teeth.

"No way, since you don't say it, then my family has 1,200 troops in this Boti City, what do you think will happen if I throw you into the barracks?" Chao Ding sneered. This is the only way to deal with female ninjas, and I have long heard that the Mochizuki family specializes in training these female ninjas who can 'operate in the room'.

"What?" After looking at the smiling ashigaru around her, she was worried about whether she would be spoiled by the night's play.

"Are you hired?" Chao Ding was a little impatient, and hurriedly said what he had done.

"I said that I used to let the princess do rough work, and I kept beating and scolding her. But these are all forced by Mrs. Sanjo! He also asked the slaves and others to pass the news to the Takeda family after they arrived in Aizu. The old maid couldn't hold it anymore and quickly spoke up.

"If you are told to beat you, you will fight? If you are told to scold you, you will scold? Three of you let you die, why don't you die! "Chaoding looks down on these people who can only sell their masters.

"Mrs. Sanjo didn't let the slave die...... "Before the old maid could finish speaking, Chao Ding interrupted.

"Then how about I let you die?" Asadachi took an iron cannon that had been ignited by Ashigaru and shot it at the old maid's head.

After a gunshot, the old maid fell, and the remaining two maids collapsed to the ground in fright.

"It's a lot of recoil." Asada's first feeling after firing the gun was that the recoil was too great, and then he handed the iron cannon to Hojo Takamasa.

"Lord, what about the remaining two maids and a ninja?" Takahiro Hojo felt that there was no need to stay alive.

"The ninja was left for questioning, and the remaining two were chopped." As soon as Asada's words fell, the two ashigaru drew their sabers and stabbed the two maids who were paralyzed on the ground.
