Chapter 598: Strange Hearts

Goo-goo... At night, most of the Maori army rested, but there were constant open and dark sentinels, for fear of being attacked by the Hosokawa army.

However, no matter how tight the checkpoints are, they can only prevent large-scale military operations and cannot prevent the infiltration of people with intentions.

In a military tent, Sugishige, the lord of Matsuyama Castle in Toyozen Province, was looking at a letter in his hand, which was a letter of surrender that Hosokawa ninja shot in at night. The content of the letter is very simple, surrender can be retained, and the time is also limited, and the difference in the order of surrender is limited.

For example, the top five surrender are guaranteed to be blocked, the five to ten are reduced by two percent, and the ten to twenty are reduced by half... Descending order.

It seems that the later you surrender, the more you will suffer, but what if the first few surrendered? The Maori family knew that this battle would be lost, but how could they make their losses smaller? This is the main consideration of each of their families at the moment.

And this restriction order is like a hot sales site, where the number of listings is limited, first come, first served. The hall is crowded with customers who just need it, and every time they hear that a real estate transaction is successful, their hearts will be more anxious, even if it is a little more expensive, they must be the first to take this place.

Sugishige is one of them.

"Uncle Zhengzhong! Arrange it now, we'll leave tonight! Go to the Hosokawa family! Sugi Shigeryo rubbed the letter of persuasion in his hand and commanded a middle-aged samurai in front of him.

"Lord, have you thought it through?" Sugi Masashige asked again, this is a matter of the rise and fall of the family.

"Of course! The defeat of the Maori family is imminent, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that following the Maori family all the way to the dark will only end in destruction! Since we can all see it, others can certainly think of it too! So, it's easy to be early and not too late, don't you see that there is still a quota limit! It's not good to go late. Sugishige made up his mind and immediately gathered his cronies to prepare to flee to the Hosokawa army overnight.

Their Sugi family was originally a retainer of Ouchi, and after Tao Qingxian betrayed Yoshitaka Ouchi, the original retainers of the Ouchi clan were divided. Some followed Ouchi Yoshinaga, some followed Tao Qingxian, and some took refuge in Maori Motokushi like the Sugi family.

"Quick! Fast! Pack up the finesse! Fast! "Sugi Masashi Shigemasa led a few personal soldiers to bring all the valuable things, and the peasant soldiers couldn't take them away, but only some henchmen and retainers and servants.

However, in a dark corner, there is a pair of rat eyes watching them, and it is a ninja: Yarokuro Sada. He is a ninja under Sugihara Moshige, a Maori retainer, and has three brothers, all of whom are good at disguise.

The eldest brother of the three brothers, Hikoshiro Sata, is known as the "change of the fox", the second brother Shigoro is known as the "gecko's lurking", and the last brother Yarokuro is known as the "exploration of mice".

Soon, Yarokuro Sada retreated, and as soon as he turned the corner, he came to Sugihara's camp.

"My lord! Sugishigera has an anomaly there, and it seems that he is about to prepare to escape! Yarokuro Sada quietly came to Sugihara's tent.

"What! Damn fellows! Sure enough, someone wants to rebel! Come! Gather all the people! Destroy the rebels with me! Sugihara Morishige rolled over and sat up from the couch, and immediately began to put on his armor under the service of the attendants. This fire of rebellion must be extinguished as soon as possible, otherwise it will become a prairie fire!

"Are you all packed?" Sugi Shigera came out of the tent, and his subordinates were all in front of him.

"My lord! Everything is packed and ready to go! Sugi replied respectfully.

"Excellent! Let's go! With a wave of his hand, Sugishige was about to get ready to leave.

"It's so late, where are you going?" Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice came.

"What people!" Sugi Shigeryo's entire hair is blown up, and if the machine is not secret, it will be harmful!

"Hahaha! It's me! As he spoke, a group of people walked in from outside the camp, and the leader was Takahashi Kan.

"It's you! Belch... I wonder what Takahashi-sama's late-night visit is? Sugi Shigeliang's eyes rolled wildly, thinking about how to get by, after all, they hadn't left the camp to raise the anti-flag.

"I heard that Sugi-sama wants to serve the Hosokawa family, so I'm here to see him off!" Takahashi Kantan's eyes were cold, and he stared straight at Sugi Shigeyo.

"Hehe... Takahashi-sama said with a smile, in the next... I never thought about turning my back on the Maori family. Tonight... Tonight it's just... It's just..."Sugi Shigera's head was covered with sweat, and he had secretly pressed his hand against the hilt of the knife.

"Hey, hey... Sugi-sama... What is there to hide here, the so-called good birds choose trees to perch, and good ministers choose the lord to serve, in the next year, didn't they also deviate from the Otomo family and serve the Yuan Gong. Takahashi smiled, he had already received a tip, and he happened to come over and block it.

"Takahashi-sama must be a smart person too, so why don't you go with you... Go to the Hosokawa family. At that time... Fengzen is still our world. "Since he was seen through, Sugi Shigeliang simply pulled the other party to defect to the Hosokawa family, anyway, Takahashi was once a betrayer.

Takahashi Jianzhong, the Otomo clan's Shuliu 10,000 Tian clan, the second male in the family. The original name was Ichimanda kinzong. The Chikugo Takahashi clan, who inherited the Great Tibetan Party, was given favoritism by the lord Otomo Yoshikan, and the Takahashi clan's common character ("species") was added, and the name was changed to Takahashi Kangen.

Under the heavy profit of the six counties of the former country promised by the Maori Yuan, he joined forces with the clan and the Akizuki clan to take refuge in the Maori family. Naturally, Otomo Sorin, who was annoyed and angry, dispatched a crusade army to attack Chikuzen Province with Toji Kenren (later Tachibana Michiyuki) as the commander in chief.

That year, it was the 12th year of Eiroku (1569), and it happened that Niko Motohisa and they took advantage of the rivalry between the two families of Otomo and Mori to seize Izumo Province in three cities in one day. Mori Moto was forced to withdraw his troops from Kyushu and fought with the Niko family at Mt. Bube, and was finally defeated and killed alive.

As a result, Takahashi Kan, who had lost his backing, surrendered to Otomo Sorin, and the position of the governor of the Takahashi family was taken away. After that, he was sent back to the Mori family and became the lord of Kokura Castle in Bunzen Province. Otomo Sorin, in turn, appointed Yoshihiro Zhenli (later Takahashi Zhenzu (Shaoyun)) to inherit the Takahashi family, so that the family name survived.

"Hmm... Is it equally divided between the countries of Fengmae? Takahashi tilted his head and thought about it, the Maori family's Beifeng was controlled by the two of them.

"That's right, that's right." As soon as Sugi Shigera saw that there was a play, he couldn't help but take two steps forward, trying to talk about Takahashi's identification again. After all, after losing the territory of Chikugo Province, he has been depressed in the Maori family.

"It's a good idea." Takahashi nodded, as if he had been moved.

"Right? If you want me to say, uh..."Sugi Shigera coldly felt cold in his stomach, and when he looked down, he saw that it was a sharp knife that had stabbed him in the abdomen.

"You... You..."Sugi Shigera only felt that his breathing began to be difficult, and his eyelids were unusually heavy.

"Hey, hey... Pity... I like to eat alone under it! "Takahashi's hideous face is the last memory in Sugishige's eyes... Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find?
