In less than half an hour, a big battle ended without suspense. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The enemy and the enemy are not on the same level at all, how can the Araki people be the opponent of the powerful and numerous Yamaguchi people? With just one charge, Abe Enta slashed Araki Shintaro to the ground with a single sword. The people who rushed out of the mountain pass immediately dispersed the Araki people. Shintaro Araki died, and the Araki people surrendered after paying the casualties of more than a dozen bandits.
Gintaro Suzuki and Kamiki Yozaburo looked at everything that happened in front of them in a daze, and it took a long time for the two to finally react.
"Silver ..... Gintaro, this... We're being bandits.... surrounded, what to do! Shenmu and Saburo said to Gintaro Suzuki beside him with weak legs.
Suzuki Gintaro also licked his lips, and looked nervously at the murderous Yamaguchi people in front of him, and he was at a loss for a while.
After a while, a person came out of the crowd and said loudly, "Who are you two?"
"Are you blind?" Shenmu and Saburo really wanted to slap this thief in the face, but unfortunately, he didn't dare, so he had to answer honestly, "This... This Lord, we are. He was a merchant who was going to go to the Binai region to do business. ”
"Merchant?" The thief touched his beard, the fierce expression on his face weakened a little, and then asked, "Where did the merchant come from?" There may be a trade article promulgated by the Tsugawa family. ”
"Merchant Provisions..... What are the trade provisions? Kamiki and Saburo looked at the bandit with a confused expression, and then turned to look at Gintaro Suzuki with a question mark on his face.
Gintaro Suzuki hurriedly replied, "Yosaburo, did you forget?" When we passed through Tsugawa Castle, the lord of Tsugawa Castle, Komura, had issued us a letter! ”
To be honest, the Tsugawa family's business rules are not available to everyone, at least not at least Gintaro Suzuki is not qualified to get them at the moment. This is also the reason why Gintaro Suzuki wants to follow Kamiki and Saburo........ Because Shenmu and Saburo have the business regulations issued by the Tsugawa family in their hands.
"Oooh! There is such a thing! Shenmu and Saburo reacted suddenly, and said excitedly, "My lord... We have. Yes! I'll go get it. ”
The bandit nodded when he heard this, and motioned for Shenmu and Saburo to go and get it.
Shenmu and Saburo immediately rummaged through the only small carriage behind them. Shenmu and Saburo were very anxious in their hearts at this time, this business article originally Shenmu and Saburo didn't care about it at all, and they didn't even look at the paper that the lord of Tsugawa City sent to him.
However, at this time. Kamiki and Saburo finally understand that this piece of paper is something that can save their lives.
After a while, Shenmu and Saburo finally found the piece of Zou Baba's paper that had been kneaded by him, and then strode to the front of the thief and handed it to the thief like a treasure, and the shower curtain said flatteringly, "My lord, is this it?" ”
The thief's face showed a hint of displeasure, and then he took the paper in the hands of Shenmu and Saburo and looked at it. After a while, the bandit turned his head to Abe, who was counting the loot behind him, scratching his head and said, "Chief... I'm illiterate. ”
Kamiki Yozaburo and Suzuki Gintaro instantly had black lines on their faces.........
Hearing the bandit's words, Abe Madota hurriedly walked over, took the article in the thief's hand and looked at it, and then said to Shenmu and Saburo, "Your name is Shenmu and Saburo?" ”
"Hah! Under it is Shenmu and Saburo. Shenmu and Saburo nodded hurriedly.
Enta Abe handed the article to Kamiki and Saburo and said, "Since you have the article issued by your family, then you can pass it safely here." ”
"Thank you, sir!" Shenmu Yozaburo and Suzuki Gintaro finally breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully.
Enta Abe looked at the goods behind the two, and then said, "Your people are all gone, and there is no way for the two of you to transport so many goods." Why don't you keep it for the time being, and wait for the two of you to find someone to collect it. ”
"This ......." Shenmu glanced at Saburo and Suzuki Gintaro, both of whom had some anxiety on their faces.
Abe Enta saw the concerns of the two, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, as long as there are the business regulations of the Tsugawa family, we Yamaguchi people will never be embarrassed, and this is also for your good." ”
"It's no secret that my Yamaguchi people are under the command of the Tsugawa family, and this is not a secret in the Hago region. It's just a few hundred stones of grain, and I, Abe Enta, haven't seen it yet. Enta Abe continued.
Gintaro Suzuki knows a little bit about it, but it's come to this, even if the two don't want to, what can they do? If the Yamaguchi really wanted to swallow their goods, they couldn't stop it.
Gintaro Suzuki hurriedly said, "So, thank you, Lord Abe, we'll go back to recruiting people immediately." I just don't know, where are we going to look for adults when the time comes? ”
"Do you see the mountain ahead?" Enta Abe pointed to Mt. Moriyoshi, not far away, and said, "Just go there and find me, and then report my name Abe Enta!" ”
"Hah!"
..........
Although Gintaro Suzuki and Yozaburo Kamiki were unwilling, they had no choice but to return to Tsugawa Castle.
"Gintaro, do you really believe what Yamaguchi said?" On the way, Shenmu and Saburo anxiously said to Suzuki Gintaro, "That's a bandit, have you ever seen a bandit who will return the goods?" ”
Suzuki Gintaro sighed and said slowly, "If they are really the strength of the Tsugawa family, it is not impossible. Relatively speaking, this mountain pass is much better than the first wave of bandits, at least we're still alive now, aren't we? ”
"That's just as well." Shenmu replied with the same feelings as Saburo, "I thought I was going to die, but I didn't expect to suddenly kill a group of Yamaguchi. If you want me to say, the situation in your Izuwa country is really complicated. ”
"Since the rise of the Tsugawa family, our Hago region has changed a lot. However, the various policies of the Tsugawa family have benefited us businessmen a lot. Gintaro Suzuki said slowly, "Okay, let's speed up." The closest place to this is Komatsuyama Castle of the Tsugawa family, so I hope I can find someone somewhere. ”
However, it turns out that Gintaro Suzuki and Yozaburo Kamiki were lucky. On the same day, the two found a dozen or so peasants, promised a reward of 50 yen each, and the next morning Suzuki and Gintaro took the peasants to Moriyoshiyama.
Compared to Suzuki Gintaro and the others, these peasants were very calm, because they knew that the bandits of Mt. Moriyoshi would not embarrass the lords of the Tsugawa family.
In the afternoon of the same day, Gintaro Suzuki and Kamiki and Saburo left Moriyoshiyama with the goods belonging to the two of them. Along the way, Abe Enta also sent a team of bandits to escort them along the way, all the way to the vicinity of the Kirinaikan of the Kasei family. This made Gintaro Suzuki and Kamiki and Saburo feel very strange.
Since ancient times, it has been common for thieves to rob merchants, but this escort of merchants is really the first time that a big girl gets on a sedan chair.
(Gintaro Suzuki and Kamiki Yozaburo: Well, it's strong.) I can blow this wave for a year! )
