"The situation is out of control?" After hearing Tsugawa Soji's words, Nozawa and Kuro said with a puzzled expression, "Isn't there a Togo lord in the Mutsu area?" What's more, the family's support forces have already gone to the Mutsu area, how can it still get out of control? ”

As soon as Nozawa and Kuro's words fell, Soji Tsugawa shook his head and said helplessly, "The family thought about the situation in the Mutsu area too simply. ”

"A few days ago, the family asked Abe Enta to go to the Mutsu area, with the intention of integrating the bandits in the Mutsu area, and by the way, to investigate the matter from the side of the bandits."

"Unexpectedly, when Abe Enta was convincing Hatta Kozhong, he accidentally bumped into a conversation between Hatta Kozhong and Akimoto, a retainer of the former Asa Yorishi family. After coming down, Abe Enta grabbed this Akimoto as a scene, and through severe torture, he finally learned something from his mouth that his family said he didn't know. Just these news are enough to make the scalp of the family tingle. ”

"At first, the family thought that it was really just the bandits involved in this matter, but later I guessed that there were other forces involved in this matter, but I didn't expect that so many forces would be involved." Soji Tsugawa said with a solemn face, "This is a letter from Enta Abe, you can see for yourself." With that, Soji Tsugawa threw a letter on the desk in front of him to Nozawa and Kuro.

Nozawa and Kuro picked up the letter from the ground and read it.

After reading it, Nozawa and Kuro's eyes suddenly shrank, and they said in disbelief, "How can there be so many forces involved?" ”

"yes!" Soji Tsugawa nodded, "What the family is more worried about is that these forces are probably just the tip of the iceberg." It's just that the remnants of wealthy clans such as the Shishi family and the Daguangji family are simply not enough to launch such a large-scale bandit attack."

"Whether it's in terms of influence or financial resources, there must be other forces behind this. Moreover, the family is also worried about the participation of the retainers of the family, and some of the retainers in the Mutsu area were temporarily activated after Togo Yoshisuke went to Muchinoku, and the family knows very little about these retainers, so they have to guard against it, after all, the lessons of Minezawa Castle are in front of us. Soji Tsugawa said slowly.

"The lord means to let him go to the Mutsu area to investigate the matter?" Nozawa and Kuro asked tentatively.

"Not bad." Tsugawa Soji nodded, "Although Iwaki Jiro has already gone to the Mutsu area to investigate this matter, Iwaki Jiro is on the surface after all, and he is afraid that these people will be more wary of him." You, on the other hand, know very little about you, even the retainers of the family know very little about you, so the family decided to send you to the Mutsu area to assist Jiro Iwaki in investigating the matter. ”

"Once all these forces are investigated, the family will be able to wipe out all the hidden dangers in the Mutsu area! In this way, the family will have no worries about the use of troops in the Hazen area in the future. Soji Tsugawa continued.

"Don't worry! In the next decision, it should live up to the trust of the lord! Nozawa and Kuro immediately replied with a firm face.

In fact, sending Nozawa and Kuro was also a deliberate decision by Soji Tsugawa.

Nozawa and Kuro were the leaders of a ninja in the Mutsu region before, and they have been the ninja leaders of the southern family for a long time, so they naturally know much more about some of the twists and turns in the Mutsu region than Jiro Iwaki. If Nozawa and Kuro were to be sent, it would naturally make it easier for Jiro Iwaki to investigate.

......

Hatta Kozan, in a secret room where Hatta Kozan was holding hostages.

A man covered in blood was hung from the beams of the room, and beside him were two adults who looked like bandits, waving their long whips, and on the other side of the secret room sat a man with a smile on his face.

Looking at Akimoto Weijing, who had been beaten to a bloody pulp, Abe Enta's eyes also had a hint of admiration in them, "Akimoto for Jing, say other people early, so it's good for you and me!" Why should you suffer any more from these flesh and skin? ”

"Abe Enta, that's to kill me, I won't say more." Akimoto said with a hideous face.

Enta Abe shook his head and stood up, "Weren't you very cooperative before?" Since so many people have already come out, why not say a few more? ”

"Humph!" Akimoto snorted for Jing Leng and then replied, "What I said before is just to save my life!" If I tell the rest, will I still be alive? ”

Hearing Akimoto's words, Abe Enta was also stunned, and then said with a little embarrassment, "Although I don't know why you say that, I still have to reiterate that if you are willing to tell the rest of the people honestly, then I will definitely spare your life." But if you continue to die like this, then I can't guarantee it! ”

"Humph!" It's a pity that what responded to Abe Enta was nothing more than Akimoto's cold snort.

Abe Enta suddenly became angry and said loudly, "Keep fighting!" ”

"Yes!" The two bandits on the side hurriedly continued to whip Akimoto for the scenery.

Akimoto silently endured physical pain and mental devastation for Jing, but Akimoto knew that he couldn't say it anymore no matter what.

Akimoto knew that if he told all the rest of the people, there would be no way to live.

The news that Enta Abe or the Tsugawa family wants to know from their mouths is their own life talisman, and as long as they haven't said it, they can't die. And if all the explanations are completed, then I will not have the slightest use value, and I am afraid that I will not even have a place to bury myself.

And looking at Akimoto for Jing, who refused to continue no matter how he fought, Abe Enta was also a little discouraged, to be honest, Abe Enta was indeed ready to kill Akimoto for Jing after saying the rest of the information in Akimoto Weijing. But this Akimoto for the scenery obviously has some concerns, just don't say it.

It was also a little difficult for Abe Enta to make it difficult.

"Lord Abe, this is a letter from Ishikawa Castle, please take a look at it." Just when the atmosphere was a little awkward, Shiro Kasahara suddenly entered the secret room, and then said to Enta Abe with a respectful face.

Putting aside the identity of the samurai of the Abe Entatsugawa family, the posture of Abe Enta directly killing Masaki Kamataro's mother and son and more than a dozen of his cronies that day is still in the mind of Shiro Kasahara. For the unsightly god in front of him, Shiro Kasahara didn't dare to look at it directly.

Enta Abe turned around and took the letter from Shiro Kasahara's hand, looked at it roughly, and then scratched his head a little embarrassed, "This... Is Kasawara-sama literate? ”

Shiro Kasawara "..........."

.........

The Ousekan is the residence of the Ouse family, one of the four heavenly kings of the former southern family.

However, with the decline of the southern family, the Okusekan is now the domain of the Tsugawa family.

Located at the foot of the mountain on the eastern side of Mount Kotar, Okusekan is a mid-mountain castle that is small in size but has an important location.

In the castle tower of the Ousekan, the atmosphere was a little heavy at this time, more than a dozen people were sitting in the castle tower with a solemn face, and the Ousekan guard, who was supposed to be sitting on the main seat, was kneeling in the castle tower with a panicked face at this time, and beads of sweat were constantly dripping from his forehead.......
