On the 20th day of October in the 13th year of the Astronomical Calendar, the city of Ducobalt in the Binai region was under attack from the Great Ge Katsurai. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Since Asari Noriyu united with Kadowaki Masayori's father and son to kill the three of Asari Dinglai, Dage Shenglai took advantage of the fact that the Asari family was not stable for the time being, and sent troops to attack Ducobalt City.

The two sides first confronted each other for more than ten days in Nakano Yuan, north of Nakano City, and originally Asari Zeyou had firmly blocked Dage Shenglai in Nakano Yuan. But unexpectedly, Asari Zelai (the previous governor) suddenly ran out of the army of the Dage family and instigated hundreds of ashigaru to escape, and suddenly the ashigaru of the Asashi family was demoralized and had no desire to fight.

In desperation, Qianli Zeyou had no choice but to retreat to the cage city of Ducobalt City with his troops, and the two sides fought back and forth in Ducobalt City for more than half a month, without any progress.

In the castle tower of Ducobalt City, Asari Noriyu sat on the main seat with a nervous face, and Masayoshi Kadowaki and Masayori Kadoki sat on both sides.

"Father-in-law, Hyogo Suke, the enemy's offensive is becoming more and more rapid, and if it goes on like this, I don't know if we can hold Ducobalt City." Asari Noriyu said to the two of them with a sad face.

"My lord, it's been a month since Da Ge Shenglai sent troops to attack his family, and the weather is gradually getting cooler now, as long as we persist for some time, we will definitely be able to turn the corner into safety." Kadowaki Masayoshi comforted, "Moreover, it should be Da Ge Shenglai who is anxious at this time, right, the lord is relieved for the time being." ”

"Why is that?" As if attracted by Kadowaki Masayoshi's words, Asari Noriyu couldn't help but show a curious look and said to Kadowaki Masayoshi.

Kadowaki Masayoshi smiled, and then replied, "My lord, father, the Tsugawa family has defeated the Ando family, and now the forces of the Tsugawa family's general, Akechi Mitsuhisa, are stationed in Kazebari Castle. ”

"Tsugawa Soji will never watch our Ducobalt City being captured!" Masayoshi Kadowaki said with a firm face.

"Of course, after all, the family is a subordinate of the Tsukawa family." Kadowaki Masori nodded.

"No!" Kadowaki Masakashi shook his head and vetoed, "Tsugawa Soji will not give up his family, not because the family is a subordinate of the Tsugawa family, but because of the unique geographical location of Ducobalt Castle. ”

"Lord, the Ducobalt City of this family is just between the Jinchuan family and the southern family, whether it is the southern family going to the Jinchuan family, or the Jinchuan family setting off to the southern family, you must pass through the Ducobalt City of the family." Masayoshi Kadowaki said slowly.

Before Masayoshi Kadowaki finished speaking, Masayori Kadowaki said with a puzzled face, "But, what does this have to do with us? ”

"yes!" The main seat of Asari Noriyu also echoed, "The Tsugawa family and the southern family are allies, what does the family's Ducobalt City have to do with these two families?" ”

"Huh! It's a big deal. Kadowaki Masayoshi said with a funny face, "Do the lord and father really think that the covenant between the Tsugawa family and the southern family can continue to exist?" Especially this time, the Tsukawa family drove the Andong family to a remote place like Fukushima Castle, could it be that Harumasa in the south of Sanhe Castle could still calm down? ”

"Hyogosuke, you mean, the Tsugawa family and the southern family are about to go to war?" Asari Noriyu said to Masayoshi Kadowaki with a surprised face.

Masayoshi Kadowaki shook his head, and then said, "War is certain, but not now. First, the Tsugawa family has newly acquired the territory of the Andong family, and they need to consolidate the territory in a short period of time, and they cannot send troops on a large scale. In addition, the southern family is also fighting against the Spo family and the Nanaoka family, and they are also not capable of starting a large-scale war. ”

"Second, winter is about to begin, and there is no need to start a large-scale war. Because as soon as winter comes, both sides will strike the army, and then it will be a waste of financial resources. Kadowaki Masayoshi said slowly.

"In this way, the Nanbu family and the Tsugawa family can't afford to fight in a short time?" Kadowaki said with relief, "In this way, our Ducobalt City can avoid a storm for the time being." ”

"Father, you would be naïve to think so." Masayoshi Kadowaki said mercilessly, "As I said before, the unique geographical location of this family is Cobalt City. It can be said that in the future, the Tsugawa family and the southern family will go to war, and whoever controls Ducobalt City will have the initiative to send troops. ”

"It's like Nakano Castle between the main family and the Daikaku family! Nakano Castle was lost before, and the family is now passive and the father has also experienced it. Therefore, before the Tsugawa family and the southern family start a full-scale war, the two families will definitely leave no room to fight for the dominance of our Ducobalt City. Masayoshi Kadowaki continued.

After listening to Masayoshi Kadowaki's words, the two of them, who didn't feel anything, suddenly felt their hearts tugging again.

"It's over, it's really over! First the bastard Katsuyori, then his father and three uncles, and now the overlords of the Tsugawa family and the southern family. This time the family is really finished. Shallow Li Zeyou thought of it in his heart.

As if seeing through Asari Noriyu's thoughts, Masayoshi Kadowaki continued, "Actually, the lord doesn't need to panic, as I just said, this family is absolutely safe now. ”

"Hyogo Suke, I know you must have a way, tell me quickly!" After listening to Masayoshi Kadowaki's words, his eyes suddenly shone again, and he stepped forward and took Masayoshi Kadowaki's hand and said excitedly.

Kadowaki Masayoshi looked at Asari Noriyu, who was sad and happy in front of him, and shook his head silently in his heart, "Is such a family head really an object worthy of allegiance?" ”

Although he was a little disappointed in his heart, Masayoshi Kadowaki did not show anything abnormal on his face, but said solemnly, "My lord! Both the Tsugawa family and the southern family want to take control of Ducobalt City. Now the family is subordinate to the Tsugawa family, so for the time being, the Tsugawa family is an ally of the family. ”

At this time, Da Ge Shenglai was leading an army to attack Duco City, and as we all know, Da Ge Shenglai had fallen to the southern family. Then, once Da Ge Shenglai captured Ducot City, it would be equivalent to the southern family controlling Ducobalt City. This is what Tsugawa Soji does not want to see, so the Tsugawa family will definitely send troops to support Ducobalt Castle. ”

"As for whether the Tsugawa family can repel the attack of the southern family by then, this will not be known until the end." Masayoshi Kadowaki continued, "But, no matter what, it is definitely the right choice to be on the side of the Tsugawa family. Because, in order to fight against the Tsugawa family, the southern family will definitely take Ducobalt City into their own hands. And the family that occupies Ducobalt City will either take the initiative to give up Ducobalt City or .........." Speaking of this, Masayoshi Kadowaki suddenly stopped talking about it.

However, although Masayoshi Kadowaki did not finish speaking, Masayori Kadowaki and Noriyu Asari also understood what Masayoshi Kadoki meant.

"That's true." Asari Noriyou breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly, "Compared with the thunder methods of the southern family, the Tsugawa family is indeed more gentle towards us little wealthy families. ”

"This time, the people of Akita County, except for the Kasei family, who had taken refuge in the Ando family in advance, was confiscated by Tsugawa Soji, and the other wealthy families are still safe and sound." Asari Li Zeyou continued, "It's a big deal, it's transferred to other places, but it's better than losing your name." ”

Thinking of this, the three people in the castle tower couldn't help but feel a little helpless, helpless for the Xiaohao clan.
