Chapter 550: Persuading the Monk to Surrender
"Kill!" Under the spring castle, a large number of Hosokawa troops poured into the breach of the gate, and this kind of small branch city could not stop it for half a day, and immediately after the temple island city, it also fell into the city.
"My lord! Young Lord! The city has been cleared! Please invite the lord and the young lord to enter the city to rest! "Honda Masanobu saluted respectfully, since crossing Oshima Castle and beheading Takeda Nobuyo, the Hosokawa East Route Army was overwhelmed along the way, and the enemy fled in despair.
"Well, Yahachiro, there's only the Takeda family's Takato Castle left in front of you, right?" Hosokawa Nobumoto and others rode into the city, and the newly captured Kasuga Castle and Tyoshima Castle were the two branch castles in front of Takato Castle.
"Yes, the lord and the keeper will be Nishina Shengxin." Honda Masanobu replied after him.
"Nishina Shengxin? Hehe, it is worthy of being the important town of the Takeda family in Minami Shinano, and it is either a heavy minister or a family member who defends it. "Hosokawa Nobumoto didn't expect that he had just begged a Takeda Nobuyobu to die, and here is another Nishina Morinobu.
"Yes, my lord, and Takato Castle is also the last important town in Minami Shinano, and if you go north after here, you can enter the Suwa Basin, where the central street can lead directly to Kai Province! But if you take it here, half of Shinano will go to my Hosokawa family. Honda replied respectfully that this expedition was exceptionally smooth, and he won half of the country in less than half a month, which was unimaginable in the past.
"Father, the child wants to persuade him." Smart Pill on the side interjected and said, he now likes scheming more and more, and feels that it saves time and effort.
"Okay, you can send someone to try it." Hosokawa Nobumoto nodded, resourcefulness is very important for the head of the family, and it can be divided into five realms: seeking oneself, seeking others, seeking soldiers, seeking the country, and seeking the world!
"Thank you, Father!" Smart Pill was overjoyed, and his little eyes rolled around, thinking about who to send to the right one.
At the same time, Takato Castle was also surrounded by armor, and in order to resist the invasion of the Hosokawa army, Nishina Morinobu summoned Ashigaru to defend as much as possible. Even the castle generation, Koyamada Masanari, who was far away in the mountain castle of Saku County, also led an army to support, and more than 3,000 people were gathered in the castle to prepare for the battle of the ridge castle.
"My lord! The Basilica has sent a messenger! At this time, Takeda Katsuyori's secret letter also arrived at Takato Castle, and the content of the letter was to ask Nishina Morinobu to abandon the city and go to Kai Province Shinfu Castle to join him.
"Tell the messenger and let him go back and tell the lord that the land obtained by his father is not easy, and his subordinates cannot watch it be seized by the Hosokawa family! I am willing to live and die with Gaoyuan City! Other than that... By the way, send them out. At this time, Nishina Morinobu had already made the consciousness of dying in battle, and knew that the final result would be the destruction of the city, so he sent his sister Matsuhime and his son Nishina Nobuki, daughter Tohime, Takeda Katsuki's daughter Sadahime, and Takeda retainer Koyamada Nobushige's daughter Kagurhime to the Hachioji area of Musashiga Province in the Hojo clan's sphere of influence, and it seems that he is not optimistic that Takeda Katsuyori will eventually be able to hold Kai Province.
"Lord, a monk came outside, saying that it was the envoy of the Hosokawa family, asking to be summoned!" A samurai ran in from outside.
"Monk? Hosokawa family? Let him in! Nishina Morinobu tilted his head and thought for a moment, then waved his hand to let the monk in.
After a while, a monk dressed as a monk walked into the hall.
"Amitabha, the poor monk's Dharma name is Yifan, I have seen Lord Renke!" Yifan folded his hands, he was the presiding officer of Kaishan Temple next to Gaoyuan City, in order to get some benefits, so he took the initiative to apply to be the messenger.
"Humph! You don't want to stay in the temple to eat fasting and chant Buddha, what are you doing here! "Nishina Shengxin didn't give him a good face, this group of monks spends their days drinking and drinking on weekdays, and they are not people who believe in Buddhism at all, this time they must have received the benefits of the Hosokawa family, so they came to be lobbyists.
"Amitabha, naturally, for the sake of the soldiers and civilians in the city from being destroyed, give your adults a way to live!" What Yifan said is high-sounding, and he looks like a universal being.
"Humph! The Hosokawa family's unprovoked attack on the family is unjust, and the slaughter of Oshima Castle is unkind! And to lead the whole city to fight for righteousness, and it is loyal to my Takeda family! You speak for an unkind and unrighteous Hosokawa family, aren't you afraid that the Buddha will blame you! "Nishina Shengxin is righteous and awe-inspiring, and he also belongs to protecting the family and defending the country.
"Nishina-sama's words are wrong, the destruction of the Takeda family is on the verge of destruction, and the Hosokawa family is... Then... Uh..."Yi Fan was for a long time, but he couldn't say anything to refute, he was a bad monk who scavenged the people's fat and people's ointment, and there was no ink in his stomach.
"Humph! No more nonsense! I have already made it clear to my lord that I swear to live and die with Gaoyuan City! If the Hosokawa army wants to go over! Unless you step on a corpse below! "Nishina Shengxin is the king of the eight eating scales: he has an iron heart, compared to those Takeda ministers who can run and descend, his spirit is more highlighted.
"Uh... Hey... The poor monk persuaded Master Renke to come down! The Hosokawa family asked the poor monk to give you a word, as long as you open the city and surrender, you will be guaranteed to be prosperous and rich for a lifetime, and the gold is great! That's a hundred taels of gold, a little care! As he spoke, Yi Fan pouted at the little novice behind him, who obediently presented a wooden box.
When I opened it, it was full of glittering Hosokawa Daikinju!
"Hehe, the Hosokawa family is really generous, it really cost them a lot!" On the surface, Nishina Shengxin said that he was breaking the fee, but his brows were gloomy.
"Hey, hey... Hey... The Hosokawa family also said that if you can surrender, you can also give a certain amount of sealing. Hey..."Yifan smiled dryly, thinking that the goal had been achieved, and he was still secretly happy in his heart. In fact, the Hosokawa family gave a thousand taels of gold, and he only reported a hundred taels to Renna Shengxin, and the rest was greedy for ink.
"Since the master is so enthusiastic, he can't lose his courtesy, and he should give something back!" Nishina Morishin looked at Yifan with bad intentions, and the latter smiled stupidly, thinking that he could deduct some benefits from it again.
"Someone! Cut off the ears of this bald donkey! Nishina Morishin also stopped acting, with a disgusted expression on his face.
"Huh? No! Don't! Nishina-sama, why is that? Yifan was stunned by the 180-degree reversal of Renna Shengxin.
"Humph! He used these filthy yellow and white things to tarnish his loyalty! Don't! Chop off the bald donkey's ears! Go back and tell Hosokawa Nobumoto! Lao Tzu will not surrender even if he dies! Let him die of this heart as soon as possible, and get out of my Shinano quickly! Nishina Morinobu roared angrily, and several samurai came up to hold Yoshifan down, and took out a knife to cut off his ear.
"Nope! No! Spare your life! Poor monk to tell the truth! It's a thousand taels of gold for you! It's a thousand taels! Please spare the poor monks! Don't dare next time! Yifan thought that the price was not enough, and hurriedly said the real purchase price.
"Hehe... Good you bald donkey! This kind of ignorant money dares to be greedy for ink, and I cut off his nose too! When Nishina Shengxin heard this, he became even more angry.
"Ahh Yes! Don't! Don't! Uhh With a scream, Yifan's left ear was cut off by the roots, and the little novice on the side was already trembling with fright, and he was incontinent.
"Come on! And an ear! The executing warrior smiled hideously and turned Yoshifan over, revealing his other intact ear.
"Uhhhh Yifan cried out heartbreakingly, but he couldn't make the executioner stop, and his right ear was cut off again, and then his nose was exposed.
"Don't! Don't! Yifan struggled desperately, but how could his small body break free. At this time, he was already weeping bitterly, his face was pale, and he begged for mercy miserably.
"Ah!!h
Long... The little novice on the side helped Yifan up, and they were driven out of Gaoyuan City.
Before leaving, Renna Shengxin let out a message: "If you come again, you will be beheaded!" "Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find?
