In the Battle of Kumano Hosokawa Naval Forces, the Horouchi Naval Army suffered more than half of the casualties, and the Horiuchi Tiger, Horiuchi Takaka, and Sanki Dingtaka were captured, and the remnants of the Hosokawa family led by Arima Zensho returned to the Hosokawa family.

The sea route from Kinai to Owari was opened, and the Kii Sea was defended by the Saji Navy to protect the coastal areas of Kaimachi and Izumi Province; The Kumanoda Sea area was defended by the Hosokawa Navy to protect the estuary of Ise Bay, and the entire Ise Bay was designated as the inland sea of the Oda family.

"The lord has arrived!"

In the large room of Devon City, in the center knelt several samurai dressed as water thieves.

"Are you a good man?" Hosokawa Nobumoto looked at a samurai led below.

"Yes, there is Ma Shishan in the bottom, please take it in!" There is Ma's kind and respectful salute, and the defeat in the battle of Kumano is convincing.

"Well, I've heard about you, the Horiuchi family is no longer an heir, so you can go back to the Horiuchi family. In addition, I will marry you as the main room, and I hope that you will fulfill your duties in the future. "Hosokawa Nobumoto let Arima Zenzen inherit the Horiuchi family and change his name to Horiuchi Zen.

And accepted the sister of the Nine Ghosts Mototaka Nana as an adopted daughter and married him to him, and at the same time strengthened the bond between the Nine Ghost Family and the Horiuchi Family to the main family.

"Thank you, Lord! The subordinates are willing to do their duty to the Lord's house! Nine Oni Mototaka and Horiuchi Zen thanked again.

"The Kumano Navy was merged into the water army of the family, and the general of the water army, Murakami Motoyoshi, temporarily took over the position, and the total command of the water army was 2,500 people. With the subordinate army to serve Toriya O Mitsuei, the naval army generals Kuki Mototaka, Kohama Keitaka, Horiuchi Zen, and the head of the naval army Tsuyao Takako, Sugiwaka Clan, Sugi Tsuyoshi, Toba Sotada. ”

"Yes!" The samurai of the water army immediately received the order, Sugi Ruo Wuxin and the Sugi Ruo clan are father and son, and they were originally the small leaders of the Kumano water army.

Hosokawa Nobugen looked at everyone, and the Hosokawa Navy was finally perfected.

"Kill!"

In a deep mountain in Iwami Province's Haraite Prefecture, the two armies are fighting, and the banners are the Niko family and the Maori family.

"Attack! Offensive! ”

Commanded by Yamanaka Yukimori and Tachihara Hisatsuna, the battle was fought to capture the Iwami Ginzan, Japan's largest silver mine, which at its peak accounted for one-third of the world's production.

For this treasure mountain, the Nizi family sent 3,200 troops, and the Maori family garrisoned 3,000 people, and the military strength of the two sides was equal.

Crackling, spears flapping at each other, the two sides are engaged in battle, the first formation of the Maori army is Hattori Zubei, the second formation is Idewa Motoshi, and the third formation is Oda Suke Uemon.

"Drink!"

Yamanaka Yukimori led the Niko samurai to burst into the gun array and began to drive away the enemy Ashigaru.

"Press forward!"

Hisatsuna Tachihara took the opportunity to command the Ashigaru pressure and soon broke the first formation of the Maori army.

"Go up! Don't go back! "Dewa Motoshi led the head of Ashigaru to play against the Nizi Army, and as soon as he came into contact, he obviously felt a lot of pressure.

"Damn! Resist! Resist me! ”

Dewa Yuanzi didn't expect the Nizi Army to be so brave, I heard that it has only been half a year since the army.

"Thrust forward! Rise! ”

"Oh! Oh! Oh! ”

The Nizi march in a neat pace, a thrust every three steps.

Puff puff! Stabbing down one piece, then collecting the gun at the same time, and then advancing and then stabbing again, it is simply a copy of the Oda military formation.

"Ahh

"Ugh!"

The Maori army was greatly demoralized by this powerful blow, and the peasant soldiers were immediately scattered, and the Nizi army advanced into the third formation with an overwhelming advantage.

"Fight to the death! Retreater, slash! ”

Oda Sukeemon led the army to resist bravely, and the desperate momentum blocked the offensive of the Niko army.

"Excellent! And just like that, the enemy has no strength! Counterattack! ”

The Nizi army, which had fought three battles in a row, gradually ran out, and when Oki Kiyoshi saw this, he immediately led the second formation of the Nizi army to catch up and support.

"Don't be afraid! Our army will win! Offensive! ”

Oda Sukeemon is worthy of being a fierce general of the Maori family, and he can still maintain the battle formation in such adversity, and there is a faint tendency to push back.

"The Nizi family has been revived! It's time for me to return! Enemy! Maori Army! Offensive! ”

Puff puff!

"Ahh Belch! ”

The sudden rebellion caught Oda Sukeemon off guard, and he turned his head to see that it was Yonehara Tsunado who raised the anti-flag.

"Damn! Despicable villains, traitors! Oda Suke Uemon scolded.

"Phew! This family was originally a retainer of the Nizi family tree, and it was the Maori family who usurped my lord's territory! Yonehara Tsunahiro was not to be outdone, he was originally a member of the "Ten Banners of Niko", and he had to take refuge in Maori Yuan. But he has always been haunted by the notoriety of being disloyal because he served two families.

Now that he heard of the revival of the Nizi, he had already secretly communicated letters behind his back, about the internal response, and provided the military deployment of the Maori family in Iwami Ginzan.

"Come on! The Nizi family Hengdao Gaozong came to take your head! A Niko samurai roared to the front of Oda Sukeemon.

"The Nizi family is unkind, I'm waiting to return to the Maori family!"

Suddenly, a discordant voice came, it turned out to be Oki Weiqing rebelled, his betrayal was beyond everyone's expectations, you must know that when Nizi Motohisa conspired, it was in his territory Oki Country.

And he's also a former minister of the Niko family.,This Izumo landing also provided a lot of help.,But others don't understand why they rebel.,He Oki cleared his heart to know what it was for.。

It's all because of interests.,Since Oki Weiqing participated in the revival army.,Not only has he not been rewarded too much.。 On the contrary, the hegemony of the mountains and coasts was all taken over by that Nasa Japan, you must know that he was originally an Oki naval army under his own allocation, and now with the merit of capturing Manganji Castle, he is out of his own control and has become an independent Tango naval army.

"Don't panic! Stay in formation! Kill! ”

Yamanaka Yukimori promptly commanded the army to turn the gun and meet the betrayed Oki people.

"Oda Suke Rightemon has been taken from below! Oda Suke Emon was taken from below! ”

"Oh!" Like a shot in the arm, the morale of the Nizi army rose again, also thanks to the implementation of the standing system by the Nizi family.

"Kill!"

Matsuda Seiho of the Niko family detected Oki Weiqing's rebellion in time and led the reserve army to reinforce him.

"Kill!"

"Die!"

"Ahh

Since both sides were on standby, the most tragic battle in history immediately appeared.

When the last person of the Oki group fell, the nearly 1,000 Oki people died 975 on the spot, and the Nizi army also fell more than 800 people forever.

However, due to the success of the Niko family to capture Iwami Ginzan, the momentum of the Niko family increased sharply. He successfully captured 16 castles in Izumo Province, completely eliminated the power of the Mori family, and recovered the entire territory of Izumo Province of the Niko family.

Then, the power of the Niko family, which had greatly increased, rapidly expanded to more than 6,000 people, and began to attack from all sides, and Otaka Castle and Yatsubashi Castle in the Boqi country, and Iwakura Castle in Inhata country were all under the front of the Niko family.

Maori Moto, who was fighting in Kitakyushu, did not expect that the revival of the Nizi family would be so rapid, so he gradually began to shrink his forces, preparing to turn back to the cloud country and remove the tumor in his abdomen first.
