"Kill!" Mifune Castle shouted to kill the heavens, and Shimazu Ashigaru attacked wave after wave.

"Don't panic! Calm down! Bow foot light! Archery! Gun foot light! Chase the enemy down! "Jiafei Zongyun, dressed in Zen clothes, stood at the head of the city and commanded calmly, at the age of seventy-eight, he should have sat alone in front of the meditation lamp, not asking about the affairs of the world.

However, for the sake of the main family, the Aso family, he single-handedly took the lead so that the Aso family can survive to this day. If it weren't for him, it would have been enough for the Aso family to be destroyed ten times.

And this Mifune Castle was originally led by the important minister of the Aso family, Mifunabo. In the 10th year of the Astronomical Decade, the Satsuma Shimazu family, who intended to advance northward, used stratagem to oppose Mifuneboyuki.

In order to prevent the Shimazu family from relying on Mifune Castle as a bridgehead to attack the Aso family's territory, the head of the family, Aso Yutoyo, quickly sent his thirteen-year-old son Senjumaru (Aso Yuisho) to serve as the chief general of the Mifune Castle Expeditionary Army, assisted by Kai Muneun.

In the Battle of Gunmizaka, Kai Soun, who actually commanded the Aso family's army, successfully defeated the Imperial Boathouse, and after the war, Sukko Soun obtained Imperial Fune Castle as a residence, and in terms of name and reality, he was the leader of the Aso family's retainers.

After the death of Yutoyo, Zongyun continued to serve Yutoyo's son, Aso Yusho (Senjumaru). Soon after, Kai Morimasa, the lord of Kumaso Castle, who was also a member of the Kai clan, betrayed the Aso family at the instigation of the Shimazu family and declared his submission to Shimazu. Shouchang's wife is Zongyun's daughter, and Shouchang is Zongyun's son-in-law.

The betrayal of his son-in-law made Zongyun angry, so he led his troops to fight, and the two sides fought fiercely in the area of Maihara, Shouchang was defeated, and retreated to the city to hold out. After two years of siege by Zongyun's army, Shouchang opened the city and surrendered. Zong Yun did not kill him, but gave him a punishment of chasing him. Since then, Kumaso Castle has also been controlled by Zongyun.

"Send the third echelon! Give me a continuous attack! I don't believe it! They are all made of iron! "Shimazu Yoshihiro sat firmly in the big tent of the Chinese army and commanded the army to attack continuously.

Now that the Shimazu army had just taken Kenshida Castle, it could be used as a powerful barrier for the present time of Southern Higo and as a bridgehead for the future attack on Northern Higo, which was a crucial step. Now that the Ryuzoji family is rapidly expanding after the northern hiki, the Shimazu family must also hurry up, otherwise there will be no soup in the end.

The Ryuzoji family in Kyushu is actually a weird guy, it is a monster composed of powerful and wealthy families, similar to the alliance system of the Maori family. These people mainly wanted to resist the invasion of the Otomo family, so they threw themselves into the command of Ryuzoji Takanobu who repelled the Otomo family, and then jointly expanded outward to seize more land.

It is precisely because of the combination of forms that they avoid internal friction, so the expansion is very rapid, especially in recent years, taking advantage of the defeat of the Otomo family, it has expanded vigorously, so that the territory of many wealthy families has expanded several times.

In view of this, the dragon temple family does not have much binding force on these wealthy families, and even the strength is insufficient.

For example, the Akizuki family in Chikuzen originally only had 50,000 koku in the two prefectures of Chikuzen, but now due to the recent alliance of Chikushi, Harada, Kusano, Soka and other wealthy clans, the combined army of 20,000 troops has invaded Chikuzen. A few days ago, he took over Iwaya Castle, the residence of the Otomo family Takahashi Shaoyun, and won Takahashi Shaoyun himself, not only did his territory more than double his territory, but his prestige also skyrocketed, and he became the leader of that small group.

In addition to the fact that they are still besieging the Tachibana family, their tentacles have begun to extend to the Bungo country, and the weakened Otomo family is not an opponent at all, and the territory of the Akitsuki family has also doubled again, and it looks like it is about to catch up with the direct leader of the Ryuzoji family.

Nature... It's not very obedient...

Bang bang bang! The iron cannons fired in unison, and the latest weapons imported from the Hosokawa family came in handy.

"Damn!" Shimazu Yoshihiro watched his own Ashigaru fall in rows, which dealt a big blow to morale, and the third wave of the attack was declared bankrupt.

"The fourth echelon is ready to attack the city!" Shimazu Yoshihiro gritted his teeth, as long as he took the castle and defeated Kai Soun, the remaining Aso family was the fish on the board and let him slaughter it.

"Newspaper... Lord! Minamata Castle sends a messenger! Say there is an emergency report! "The samurai on duty outside the tent went inside to report.

"Huh? Minamata Castle? From Tadachi? Let him in! Shimazu Yoshihiro suddenly had a frequent jump in his right eyelid, and a bad feeling came to his heart.

"Great! Basilica! Oh no! A junior samurai stumbled in, looking at his dusty appearance, he had come all the way.

"What the hell is going on! Talk back! The retainer five generations of Youxi reprimanded angrily on the side, this good person just said such frustrating words, it is really unlucky.

"Yes! It's such a hall..."The samurai first organized his words, and then said, "The Hosokawa army has come from the sea, and now they are committing murder in the Satsuma Domain!" ”

"What! Is what you say true! Shimazu Yoshihiro was so shocked that Huo Ran got up, the news was too shocking.

"It's... It's true. ”

"Impossible! It's impossible! The Hosokawa army does not take the good end of the avenue, and prefers to take the waterway? How is his logistics guaranteed? What do all the troops under his command eat! If you dare to disturb the morale of the army again, be careful that I will skin you alive! "Shimazu Yoshihiro said that he did not believe anything, this is completely inconsistent with tactical logic, and there has been no such war since ancient times.

"Yes! It's true! Basilica! The samurai crawled forward, trying to get closer, to try harder to persuade.

"Rude! Come! Drag him out! Goshiro Yuki immediately stood in front of him, beckoned to the left and right attendants, and dragged the still howling samurai out.

"It's true! He was still pleading.

"My lord! This person must be a spy sent by the Hosokawa family to disrupt our army! They see that we are about to destroy the Aso family and want to stop us in a hurry! Kitago Tokihisa on the side immediately labeled the samurai who reported the news as a spy, he was Yoshihiro's retainer.

"Hmm..."Shimazu Yoshihiro was lost in thought, and he was only half-convinced now.

At this moment, the samurai on duty outside the tent came in again to report: "My lord, Lord Ji Jiu is here." ”

"Oh? Joyful adulthood is here? Where is he? Let him in! When Shimazu Yoshihiro heard that he was an important minister in the family, he was overjoyed, and he was worried about the accuracy of this news.

"Yes!" The samurai on duty immediately took the order, and before he could turn and go out, a man with a disheveled hair and a shabby dress ran in from outside the tent.

"Lord, wow!" Kiriki Ji Jiu cried and knelt on the ground, completely dressed as a refugee, not even a saber, and he couldn't tell that he was usually a samurai.

"It's... This is? "Shimazu Yoshihiro feels that his brain is not enough, this is good, how can it? Still calling yourself the lord? Broken head, right? I want to talk about "Mortals Through the Law of Survival" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
