Chapter 352 The Heart of Loyalty (Asking for a Monthly Pass, Recommended)

Because Omiya Jinglian has not been in the Yuan service for a long time, he has not experienced many things, so this thought is still very simple, from childhood to adulthood, in addition to teaching him martial arts, Omiya has been teaching him loyalty, over time, Omiya Keiren has already imprinted these two words deeply in his mind, and it is too difficult to make him betray the Kitabatake family.

Although he doesn't know that people outside are sinister, and his mind is full of loyalty, but Omiya Reiko, who is older than him, knows the way, and loyalty as a samurai is of course important, but if it is compared to keeping the family name, this amount is much lighter.

Moreover, she also knows that there is a big difference between loyalty and foolishness, it depends on who the object of allegiance is, if the object of allegiance is wise and resolute, then even if she sacrifices her own happiness, she will unswervingly support her younger brother, but whether the Kitabatake family is Kitabatake Gujiao or Kitabatake Gujiao, it is not worth the cost of his brother at all, and it is not worth using his life and the name of the Omiya family as a price.

The younger brother is still very young, and with his ability, he must have a bright future, if he ends up for the mediocre head of the Kitabatake family, it is really a pity, no matter what, he must not let his younger brother do such a stupid thing.

However, seeing that her brother was so resolute, Reiko Omiya didn't know how to persuade her brother to impress her, but soon, she remembered that before her father died, she had instructed her brother to keep the family name no matter what, and if she wanted to fulfill her father's wish and continue to follow the Kitabatake family, it was absolutely impossible.

Now, if you still want to keep your family's name, the only way to do this is to join the Oda family and pledge your allegiance to Takayama-sama.

I only heard Omiya Reiko speak again: "Onomiya wants to be a loyal samurai, my sister is very happy, but since my younger brother still remembers his father's last words, then he should also remember that his father said when he was dying that he wanted you to keep the name of the Omiya family, and now the situation is very clear, if you continue to be loyal to the Kitabatake family, how can you fulfill your father's wish?"

Besides, the head of the Kitabatake family is not a virtuous person, so why should the younger brother accompany his life and family name for him? ”

After these words, Omiya Jinglian's firm heart finally had a little loosening, from childhood to adulthood, Omiya Jinglian has always regarded his father's words as a wise saying, and has never violated it, no matter what his father says, he feels that it is correct, and the fact is that Omiya is the father, how can he mislead his only son. &*.. Fastest Update**

Omiya Jinglian's young heart has begun to be a little chaotic, his father let him be loyal, which must be right, and his father let himself keep his family name no matter what, which is not wrong, originally, these two things do not conflict at all, but now if you choose loyalty, then, you can't keep your family name, otherwise, this loyalty can't be kept.

Before that, everything would be made by his father for himself, and he didn't need to worry about it at all, he just needed to practice martial arts and be familiar with military books and war strategies, but now, as soon as he inherited the position of family governor, he faced such a crisis, which was really embarrassing.

Thinking of this, I saw him look at his sister Reiko Omiya, why not follow his sister's advice? But in this way, how should I face the world, although my sister was also born in a martial arts family, but after all, she is not a samurai, even if she becomes the enemy's concubine at this time, others will not say anything.

But it's different, now he is not only a samurai, but also the head of the Omiya family, if he turns the enemy at this critical moment, I'm afraid that even the Omiya family will become the laughing stock of others, and he can't stand others pointing fingers behind his back.

In this way, it is simply impossible to keep the name of the Omiya family, alas, is there no way to get the best of both worlds, and to keep the name of the family from being destroyed by the Oda family, and to keep yourself from losing your loyalty? …,

Seeing that her younger brother had begun to hesitate, Reiko Omiya wanted to take this opportunity to continue to persuade her, but perhaps her younger brother would change his mind and be loyal to Takayama-sama.

But before she could speak, she saw a heavily armed bow-footed, running in, first saluting, and then opening his mouth to report: "Report to the lord, the Oda family Takayama clan led more than 300 troops towards the city, and now it has arrived less than two kilometers away from the city, and I ask the lord to prepare early." ”

"What! Quickly order the bow foot to be on guard, and if the enemy dares to take a step beyond the thunder pool, don't wait for the order, just shoot them all with arrows. ”

"It's the lord, and my subordinates will go down and prepare." After saying that, he got up and walked towards the outside of the castle tower.

"Dazhicheng, you can't do this, the person from outside the city is your brother-in-law." I only heard Reiko Omiya say hurriedly.

Now she felt very helpless when she saw that her two closest relatives were about to face each other.

The enemy was approaching, and Omiya Jinglian didn't have time to listen to his sister's persuasion, but he didn't answer at all, so he stood up directly, walked towards the inner room, and after wearing a neat coat, he fought to the death with the enemy outside the city.

Outside Asaka Castle, except for Watanabe Moritsuna and Ashigaru, who were killed in the decisive battle of Kabara and injured and remained at Ise Kameyama Castle to recuperate, the remaining 350 Ashigaru under the command of the clan have already arrived here.

With the idea of the clan, after learning that the Kitabatake Gujiao had been killed in Kabara, and that the elite of the Kitabatake family had been annihilated by the Oda army, and there was no longer any possibility of survival, he should also be like other wealthy families in Minami Ise, and he should not hesitate to switch to the Oda family to keep his family name alive, and even if he hesitated, under the persuasion of Omiya Reiko, there should be no accidents.

But the clan didn't expect that when he first came to the outside of the city, he was greeted not by Omiya Jinglian, but by a rain of arrows, thanks to Honda Masanobu seeing that the momentum was not good, so he immediately advised the lord not to approach the city, otherwise, not only would the army under his command be shot into a sieve by the strong bow in the hands of the enemy, but I am afraid that even his own life would be difficult to protect.

The clan first thanked Honda Masanshin heartily, and then focused his gaze on the heavy bows and feet on the city walls.

Before the clan came, he had already thought that the Omiya family's heavy wisteria bow ashigaru would be very elite, but he didn't expect that they had already been elite to such an extent, not to mention the armor they were wearing, just the heavy rattan bow in their hands was not something that ordinary ashigaru could use.

If it is possible to pull this kind of hard bow apart, it will be too difficult to make sure that the arrows are shot correctly, even if most samurai can't use such a heavy bow, let alone the average ashigaru.

And looking at the armor they wear, it is not a bargain like the barrel river bucket, although the armor they wear is a little worse than the one on the elite armor rider under their command, but it is a grade higher than the armor on the scimitar rider led by Maeda Toshiya and Hori Hidemasa.

Don't look at the bow foot light only a hundred people, but if you use them to defend the city, even if there is a thousand troops attacking the city, you will not want to break the city, and the same is true on the battlefield, if you want to defeat them, unless you wait until they are exhausted, or the arrows are exhausted, you don't want to defeat them at all.
