The news of Saigo's death blew through the east gate like a whirlwind, and the startled Saigo Captain Ashigaru panicked. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Baishi Jingshan also reacted at this time, and shouted tremblingly, "Lord! Lord! ”

At this time, he stood behind the city gate and said loudly: "Saigo Kicho is dead, if you want to live, immediately lay down your arms and surrender!" ”

"You're dreaming!" Baishi Jingshan gritted his teeth and said angrily, "The lord treats me like a father, and the light dance is long, you despicable villain, I will take your head and avenge the lord!" ”

"That's right! Saigo-sama is like father and son, let's die as a traitor to the Asa Mai family! Saigo Wood Captain Ashigaru said loudly with red eyes.

Since serving as the lord of Iwamatsu Castle, Saigo Kicho has been very lenient towards Iwamatsu Castle, and Iwamatsu Township has also developed rapidly under the leadership of Saigo Kicho. Before the lack of water in Yansong Township, the chief of Xixiang ordered people to dig more than ten wells in Yansong Township, and ordered people to dig several diversion canals, which solved the problem of land irrigation in Yansong Township.

In addition, Chief Saigo is also very friendly to the people, and often goes to various villages to observe the people's situation and solve some problems of the people. It can be said that in Iwamatsu Township, the prestige and reputation of Saigo Kicho are already on a par with that of Tsugawa Soji, the head of the Tsugawa family.

Such a lord and samurai, who was deeply loved by the people, was suddenly killed by a traitor. The ashigaru of the Saigo Wood Long Team took the lead and quit.

Baishi Jingshan said loudly: "Everyone! The traitor of the shallow dancer killed the lord, and although we have a low status, we don't want the lord to die in vain! ”

"I, Baishi Jingshan, originally avenged the Lord, but I am willing to follow me!" Shiraishi Jingshan shouted softly at the Saigo wood team around him.

"I am willing to avenge Saigo-sama!"

"Kill the traitor!"

"That's right! Avenge! ”

The ashigaru of the Saigo Wood Long Team responded to Shiraishi Jingshan one after another!

"Good! Kill these traitors! Baishi Jingshan roared loudly, "Kill!" After speaking, Baishi Jingshan took out the sword on his waist and killed it towards the shallow dance long road.

"Kill!" Suddenly, the remaining twenty or so ashigaru of the Saigo Wood Captain rushed out with Shiraishi Jingshan.

Light Dance said in shock, "Quick! Stop them! ”

Michitoshi Nishino also threw Saigo's head aside, and said loudly, "Protect Asai-sama!" ”

The peasants and soldiers of the shallow dancers are not vegetarians, although the situation on the battlefield is changing too quickly, which makes these peasants a little overwhelmed for a while. However, there were still many die-hard loyalists in Asai Nagamichi, and immediately more than a dozen samurai and ashigaru rushed in front of Asamichi Nagado and blocked the attack of Shiraishi Jingshan and others.

"Look, my lord! The forces of the Owada family have already been killed! Just as Shiraishi Jingshan was fighting with Ashigaru, a Ashigaru said loudly.

Shiraishi Jingshan forced back a shallow dancer warrior with a sword, and turned his head to look. I saw that the east gate of Jinchuan Castle was opened, and hundreds of enemy troops had begun to rush into the city in a steady stream.

"Die!" Shiraishi Jingshan howled and cut down a shallow dancer samurai, and then said loudly to a samurai beside him, "Kojiro, the shallow dancer is colluding with the enemy, you go and tell Komura-sama!" I'm holding the enemy down here! ”

In the ashigaru of Iwamatsu Castle, Shiraishi Keizan is the head of the ashigaru of the squadron, while Kitagawa Kojiro Naomi is the leader of the fourth squad, and he is from the same village as Shiraishi Keiyama. Seeing the situation at this time, Shiraishi Jingshan understood that if he didn't tell Komura Yoshikage about the situation at the east gate in time and let Komura Yoshikage respond, Tsugawa Castle would probably be lost.

"Good!" Naomi Kitagawa on the side also understood the intention of Shiraishi Jingshan, and hurriedly ran in the direction of Erzhimaru. Since Kitagawa Naomi and the others were in the rear, and the Asa Mai's forces were near the city gate, Kitagawa Naomi was not blocked at all.

Seeing that Kitagawa Naomi left safely, Shiraishi Jingshan was also relieved. At this time, Shiraishi Jingshan had only one thought in his heart, that is, to hold back the enemy as much as possible and buy time for Omura Yoshikyo and the others.

Of course, it would be better if he could get away with killing Asai Nagamichi.

However, what a cunning person is Asa Mai Changdao, how could he give Baishi Jingshan a chance? Seeing that his own troops were blocking Shiraishi Jingshan, and the others outside the city were slowly entering Tsugawa Castle, Asami Nagado retreated behind Ashigaru and quietly watched the battle ahead.

There are seventy or eighty people in the ashigaru of the shallow dancers, and there are only more than twenty people in Shiraishi Jingshan and others, but the ashigaru of the Saigo Ki Long Team is all standing ashigaru, and there are several samurai such as Shiraishi Keizan who are not afraid of death, so even if the number is at a disadvantage, it is still not lagging behind.

The Saigo Ki team has Shiraishi Keizan as the head of the ashigaru, and there are 5 leading samurai like Naomi Kitagawa, and even though Naomi Kitagawa has left, there are still 4 samurai left. Shiraishi Jingshan and the others led several ashigaru to form four circular formations, and firmly nailed the ashigaru of the shallow dancer like four nails.

At this time, Yokote Mitsumori and Owada Mitsumi and others also entered Tsugawa Castle. Yokote Mitsumori and Asai Nagado have had several encounters, so the two know each other.

Seeing that Yokote Mitsumori had entered Tsugawa Castle, Asami Nagado hurriedly came to Yokote Mitsumori's side and said loudly, "Yokote-sama, Saigo Kicho has been taken under the command, and the remnants of the enemy army are currently resisting stubbornly. ”

Yokote Mitsumori said with a smile on his face, "Lord Asamai, you did a good job!" However, this bit of strength is not enough to worry about, and it is annoying that Lord Asa Mai is dragging this remnant of the ashigaru, and the family immediately attacks Ninomaru. ”

"Good!" Asa Mai replied loudly.

Yokote Mitsumori then said to Owada Mitsumi beside him, "Jiro, you march towards the south gate with a force to support Kurosawa Yorito and others who are besieging the city, and I and Omiya Tsukasa march towards Honmaru. ”

"Hah!" Mitsumi Owada said loudly.

"Rush! Capture Honmaru and occupy Tsugawa Castle! With a wave of his hand, the troops behind him began to kill towards the city.

Looking at Yokote Mitsumori and the others who were marching towards Ninomaru, although Shiraishi Jingshan was very anxious in his heart, he couldn't do anything about it. Shiraishi Jingshan and the others were already surrounded by the forces of the shallow dancers, and they couldn't get out at all.

"Lord Komura, you must block it!" Shiraishi Jingshan prayed silently in his heart.

At this time, in the main pill of Tsugawa Castle, Kitagawa Naomi entered the castle tower panting.

"Komura-sama! Oh no, Asa Mai Changdao rebelled, and Saigo-sama has been killed! Kitagawa Naomi anxiously said to Komura Yoshikage, "The east gate of Tsugawa Castle has been opened by the Asami Long Road, and the enemy army has entered the city!" ”

"What!" Yoshikyo Komura stood up in surprise and said in disbelief, "Lord Saigo... Saigo-sama died in battle? ”

"Lord Komura, quickly mobilize troops to defend Ninomaru!" Kitagawa Naomi said loudly, "Lord Shiraishi is fighting against the Asa Mai, but there aren't many people around Ashigaru around Lord Shiraishi, so I'm afraid it won't be able to stop for long!" ”

Yoshikage Komura also recovered from the shock at this time, "Now that the Asa Mai Nagado has communicated with Yokote Mitsumori and opened the city gate!" Then Yokote Mitsumori and the others must have already entered from the east gate, and the current defenses of the west gate and the south gate are meaningless, so they can only retreat to Ninomaru. ”

"Naomi Kitagawa, right? I'll give you a squadron of Ashigaru, and you immediately go to Ninomaru and defend Ninomaru's tiger's mouth! Keep the enemy at bay from Ninomaru! Yoshiki Komura said loudly.

"Hah!" Kitagawa Naomi hurriedly strode towards Taishou's outside.

Yoshikage Komura then said to a flag book beside him, "You immediately give an order to let the troops of the main family at the south gate and west gate of Tsugawa Castle retreat to Ninomaru. ”

"Hah!"

Yoshikage Komura muttered, "How can this be? ”

"No matter what, as long as my Omura Yoshikei still has a breath, Tsugawa Castle will not be lost!" Yoshikage Komura made up his mind, picked up the saber that was placed on the ground, put on his helmet, and walked out of the castle tower.

"Second Squadron, come with me!" There are two squadrons of Togo Castle under the command of Yoshikei Komura at Honmaru, and Naomi Kitagawa has taken one squadron with him, and there is one left.
