Daidoji Masashi's idea was that it was enough to send a few people to control the Bowl City, but not to conflict with the Shibata family, and try to control things within a range that could be handled. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info only controls the castle of the bowl, does not offend any territory of Ueno, and strives for the tacit approval of the shogun for this action.

This action was also approved by the Hojo father and son, very happily.

As a result, Kotaro, the wind demon who was on a mission in Hitachi, was quickly transferred to Ueno and personally worked out a plan to rescue Mitsutoru Saito.

At the same time, the young samurai of the Hojo family, the grandson of Hojo Hanan, Hojo Shitaka, also led fifty ashigaru, twenty cavalry, and twenty iron gunners, a total of nearly 100 people, from Sagami to Hagatatajo Castle.

。。。。。。

Mitsuto Saito put down the book and looked out the window.

It was already dark, and two Shibata samurai came in to bring dinner to Mitsuto Saito, and they noticed Mitsuto's movements.

[Saito-sama, don't think about it, no one will come to save you. 】

One of them scoffed.

To be honest, the Shibata samurai are not originally not like those who embarrass Saito Mitsuto, they are just asked to drink by their bosses on weekdays, and they have been suppressed for a long time, and they need to find someone to vent this emotion, and Saito Mitsuto, a person with a high status and poor treatment, has naturally become a punching bag.

【。。。。。。 】

Mitsuru Saito turned his head, suddenly looked at him coldly, and said:

[Don't go too far, or you'll be punished.] 】

[Saito-sama, I didn't hear what you said。。。。。。 】

The man suddenly threw the food on the tray over, and Saito flashed out, and the food and miso soup were all sprinkled on the tatami mats.

[But a prisoner, not honest。。。。。。 Yes! 】

Before he could finish his words, the person next to him suddenly made a move and kicked him to the ground.

[You're sick, why are you kicking me?! 】

This kicked samurai, usually flying and domineering, was so slammed that he suddenly fell into the mud, he was about to turn around and get angry at his own people, but he saw that his companion even drew his sword, and was looking at himself murderously.

[Ogura, you。。。。。。 What are you doing? 】

[Okura] smiled coldly, but asked Mitsuto Saito on the other side:

[Lord Zuo Majie, this person is disrespectful to you, I will kill him to vent this evil breath for you! ] 】

The samurai was taken aback.

[Ogura, why do you want to do this, we are one party, you are for this person。。。。。。 】

But Saito was light and said disappreciatively:

[Don't do it this yet。。。。。。 I'll do it myself later! 】

[Come on。。。。。。 Someone! 】

As soon as the samurai shouted, Saito kicked him hard -- all this time, he had been bullied by these people, and now, at last, it was reversed.

[You don't need to shout, this is already our territory!] 】

Ogura said in a cold tone.

When the two men escorted the man out of the courtyard, the latter almost fainted with fright - almost all over the dead body!

The people who used to bully Mitsuru Saito together at the beginning are now almost all lying in a pool of blood.

Why use almost?

Because there are still two people who are not dead, but even these two people have long been frightened and do not possess their bodies.

In the center of the courtyard, there were more than a dozen people standing, all of them dressed in ordinary clothes, neither like samurai nor killers, but the knives in their hands clearly showed their identities and what had just happened.

Ogura threw the three of them together and said:

[Actually, I slaughtered the Ogura you knew a long time ago, and then pretended to be him. 】

【。。。。。。 】

Out of nowhere, Saito Mitsuru found a knife and said:

[If I'm not mistaken, it was the three of you who spoiled Yumiko in the first place。。。。。。 Now I will personally send you to her for forgiveness! 】

[Ah!! 】

Only then did these three people understand why they killed the entire courtyard, but left the three of them alone.

[Ah, Saito-sama spares his life, the little one is confused for a while。。。。。。 】

[I beg your pardon, woo, we are bastards, brutes, but。。。。。。 】

[I'm sorry, woo, please forgive。。。。。。 】

[Forgiveness? 】

Saito's bare expression was angry and distorted.

[When you spoiled Yumiko, did you ask for forgiveness? When you beat me, did you ask for forgiveness? When you defended the guy who was close to Kanemori, did you ask for forgiveness?! 】

Saito Mitsuto's knife was swung down, and it was a knife at each of them, and the three of them were disemboweled, and their deaths were extremely miserable.

[Yumiko, I've avenged you。。。。。。 】

The relationship between Yumiko and Saito Mitsutoru is not ordinary, she is not only Saito Mitsuto's maid, but also his lover - although she has no name, she is devoted to Saito Mitsuto, but she is willing to come to Maebashi Castle with him, and it is this affection that makes Saito Mitsutoru feel sorry for him.

Mitsuto Saito sobbed twice, wiped away his tears, and then asked:

[Ladies and gentlemen, won't we make such a big fuss and attract the attention of the Shibata family? 】

Ogura replied:

[Saito-sama, although rest assured, this place is in a remote location, and besides, the arrests in the city are all searched at the east gate and the south gate, and we should not have any problem leaving the north gate. 】

【Good 。。。。。。 】

Mitsuto Saito suddenly fell to his knees.

[Today's great kindness, I, Saito Samasuke, have no way to repay it。。。。。。 Please tell Sagami-sama and Kanto Gong for me that in the future, wherever it is useful to go to the Saito family, please do not be polite, the Saito family is willing to act as the Hojo family。。。。。。 】

The ninjas hurriedly lifted Mitsuto Saito to his feet.

[I can't help it, Saito-sama。。。。。。 And now is only the first step, we need to leave the city, we still need 。。。。。。 】

。。。。。。

In the area around Maebashi, the situation became a little tense because of the sudden disappearance of Akechi Kogoro

In particular, the gates leading to the northeast and Musashi are allowed to pass through the gates, but they are strictly checked.

When it comes to horse-drawn carts, ox carts loaded with goods enter the Tiger Prison Pass, all of which must be opened for inspection to confirm that there are no private people before they can leave Qianqiao City.

It can be said that the current Qianqiao Castle has been strictly inspected at all levels, impermeable, and in addition to the livestock entering and leaving, men, women, and children must be strictly inspected. This is also the death order of Chief Kanemori, all those who encounter suspicious people will be taken into custody, and they would rather be caught by mistake than let go of any suspicious characters.

This also made it very difficult for the Wind Demon Ninja and Mitsutomi Saito and others to escape.

However, there are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom.

And ninjas, what they are best at is disguise.

North City Gate.

The difference between the east and south gates is stricter, but the north gate is 。。。。。。 Well, it's not easy here.

Rows of fences were placed under the city to prevent people from forcibly escaping, leaving only a five-foot-wide road in the middle of the road for idlers and others to pass through.

At the gate of the city, the two Ueno soldiers were holding spears, swords hanging from their waists, wearing armor, holding their heads high, standing in front of the city gate with a serious expression, their sharp eyes as sharp as knives swept over the people who entered the Tiger Prison Pass, and the cold expressions and indifferent eyes made the people passing by tremble, but the people were not only afraid, but also asked in their hearts, is this going to war?

At the same time, a team of catchers also patrolled back and forth under the tower.

【轱辘~~轱辘~~】

An ox cart slowly approached, and seven or eight men around him, dressed in black mourning clothes, made a [deep mourning] expression, and followed the ox cart.

And on the ox cart, there was a round barrel, which emitted a smell of rotting corpses, and there was not a single person passing by around who did not frown.

[Stop, get checked!] 】

When the ox cart drove to the city gate, two catchers stood up to stop the ox cart, and their cold eyes swept over the faces of several [funeral] men, and asked:

Where are you from? Where did it come from? Where to go? 】

The one in the lead walked out.

[If you go back to your lordship, we are running a funeral home, and we are in Hanazawa. 】

Hanazawa is the poorest place in Maebashi Castle, and there are many poor people living there.

[Oh, if you say that, you're giving people a funeral。。。。。。 I said, why does it stink so much。。。。。。 】

As he spoke, a catcher also covered his nose with his hand.

[Yes, my lord, this person is the blacksmith Ma Tai who lives in Hanazawa, and he has been dead for several days, and we are thinking that if we don't send a funeral, I'm afraid the smell will be even stronger。。。。。。 】

While saying, the man also stuffed a money ticket into the body of the catcher.

Catching a quick glance at the money ticket, then at the man, suddenly sinister laugh, said:

[No matter how smelly it is, it has to be checked, it's an extraordinary time。。。。。。 Open the barrel and let's see if it's dead! 】

Okay! If you don't do anything after receiving the money, this is called [Hades is good, but the little ghost is difficult to pick].

The man also looked helpless, and he said to the others:

[Since the adults have spoken, then we have no choice but to comply。。。。。。 Brethren, open the barrels! 】

【Hi Yi~~】

Several people, with extremely reluctant faces, opened the barrel.

【嗷~~~~】

If the smell before could only be said to be [moderate], then it can be 。。。。。。 now Everyone present felt that they didn't run to the dung field, how could they stink this virtue?! Even the two city soldiers in the distance covered their noses.

The catcher, covering his nose, forcibly stepped forward, and after seeing that there was indeed a rotting corpse in the barrel, he hurriedly said:

【Close!】 Close! This taste。。。。。。 It's unbearable! 】

So everyone hurriedly closed the barrel again, and the man laughed:

[My lord, this is okay。。。。。。 】

【Let's go!】 Come on! 】

Catch fast with a look of disgust, plus an impatient look.

[I'm so disgusted that I'm about to vomit out of dinner, you bury this person as soon as possible, or you will have to get the plague!] (To be continued.) )
