"If the family's expectations are good, Yoshiaki Kamiyama wants to see the weight of his Kamiyama family in the hearts of his family! If the reward given by the family to the Kamiyama family is too small, Yoshiaki Kamiyama will either directly refuse the family on the pretext, or even worse, Yoshiaki Kamiyama will directly take the letter from the family to find Yoshimori Mogami! Maybe the price of the most righteous shou will be higher! ”

"So, a reward of 20,000 is neither more nor less! It's enough to satisfy Yoshiaki Kamiyama, and this is also a reward that the Kamiyama family can't get from the top house, only the family has it, the only one! In this way, the family will not have to worry about the mountain family being false and wrongful to the family! After speaking, Tsugawa Soji glanced at Yajima Tadabei with deep meaning.

Yajima Tadabei woke up like a dream and said, "It's worthy of the lord, just from a few words of Yoshiaki Kamiyama, I think of so much, it's really admirable!" ”

Tsugawa Soji shook his head disappretently, "There are no absolutes in this world!" If the family thinks about the problem from your level, it will naturally feel that the reward of 20,000 koku is too much, whether it is the Yashima family or the Hosokawa family of Hosokawa Naomoto, the stone height is only a few thousand koku! 20,000 stone is a lot for you, but for this family, it is only a small part of the territory of the highest family. ”

"The family only paid a small part, but what they got was a big head! More importantly, in this way, you can also get the allegiance of a powerful countryman, so why not? Soji Tsugawa looked at Yajima Tadabei with a preachy face, "Don't care about the gains and losses in front of you, you can only get if you give up!" ”

"Zhongbei, my family has high hopes for you! The Takahashi family has now become the lord of a city, and there are thousands of stone knowledge, and the family hopes that you will also become the next Takahashi family! As he spoke, Soji Tsugawa gave Yajima a look of encouragement.

After hearing Tsugawa Soji's words, Yajima Tadabei suddenly replied with an excited face, "I didn't expect that in the heart of the lord he is so important, I, Yajima Tadawei, will definitely not let the lord down!" As he spoke, Yajima Tadabei looked at Tsugawa Soji with even more eager eyes.

.....

"Retired ???"

"Retired !!"

A burst of exclamations sounded from the Tsugawa family's main camp, and the more than twenty Tsugawa family retainers sitting in the main camp were stunned by Tsugawa Soji's sudden words.

"Lord, although the family's dispatch of troops this time has been a slight setback, it has reached the point of withdrawing troops, right?" Miki Naogo grew his mouth and looked at Soji Tsugawa with an incredulous expression.

Kuji Mizutani, who was sitting next to Miki Naogo, couldn't believe it and said, "Isn't it, what happened in the territory?" ”

"Neither!" Soji Tsugawa replied with a smile, "You don't have to worry, this withdrawal is just a strategy of our family, not a real retreat!" ”

"Policy ???" After Tsugawa Soji finished speaking, the retainers began to be blindfolded again.

"It's not convenient to say much about the detailed family now, everyone just needs to act according to the orders of the family! Early tomorrow morning, all the troops surrounding Okajo will immediately retreat, and the first Japanese family only needs to retreat to the line of Ohanazawa Castle! Soji Tsugawa said loudly, "Did you hear clearly!" ”

"Hah!" Although I don't know what strategy Tsugawa Soji has, the retainers have to do things according to the rules!

Early the next morning, when the Tendo family Ashigaru in Okajo changed guards, a samurai guarding the castle tower was suddenly surprised to find that the Tsugawa family Ashigaru outside the city was retreating in a panic!

The samurai didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly trotted all the way to find Tiantong Laichang, "Tiantong-sama, good news!" Good news! ”

"Bo Qishou, what's the good news?" Tiantong Lai Chang gently put down the small clothes in his hand, and then put them on under the service of several attendants.

Chengsheng Bo Qi Shou and Lai were overjoyed and said, "The Tsugawa family has withdrawn!" ”

"Isn't it the retreat of the Tsugawa family........ Wait a minute! Tiantong Lai Chang's originally disapproving face suddenly flashed with a trace of shock, and then said excitedly, "The Jinchuan family has withdrawn?" Seriously? ”

"Of course it's true! If you don't believe it, you can go to the castle tower to take a look.,The Tsugawa family outside the city is pulling out the camp! Cheng Sheng said with a smile on his face.

As soon as Chengsheng and Lai's words fell, Tiantong Lai Chang had already run out, and by the time Chengsheng and Lai reacted, Tiantong Lai Chang was gone.

........

Two hours later, inside the castle tower, the Mogami-Tendo coalition held an emergency military meeting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think about the sudden withdrawal of the Tsugawa family?" Tendo Lai Chang sat in the castle tower and spoke to the people around him.

As soon as Tiantong Lai Chang finished speaking, Yan Ze, the head of the Yanze family, immediately jumped out, "This is a good opportunity!" As soon as the Tsugawa family retreats, we just take advantage of the situation to pursue, not only to recapture the occupied territory, but also to defeat the invincible Tsugawa family in one fell swoop! It's a win-win! Although he had decided to take refuge in the Tsugawa family before, when he suddenly heard the news of the Tsugawa family's retirement, Yan Ze Manzhong couldn't help but say what was in his heart.

As soon as Yan Zeman's voice fell, the head of the Donggen family, Donggen Zhengchang, suddenly said, "There must be fraud in this matter!" ”

"Although the Tsugawa family has been attacking Oka Castle for a long time, it has only been less than a month now, and the Tsugawa family's Ashigaru still has the strength to fight! Moreover, the Tsugawa family's troops have not suffered much damage at all, and there is no need to withdraw troops at all! ”

"In my opinion, the Tsugawa family must be pretending to retreat, and then lure us out of the city to pursue! This must be a trap! Togen said confidently.

"What Togen-sama said is reasonable!" Higashine Masanaga's words were agreed by the head of the family, Manyasu, "This must be Tsugawa Soji, seeing that Okajo has not been able to attack for a long time, wants to trick us out of the city!" In this way, the Tsugawa family can join us in the wilderness. ”

"Although I don't want to admit it, but in the wild, the chances of us trying to defeat the Tsugawa family can be said to be very small!" Man Kang continued.

After Man Kang finished speaking, most of the people in the castle tower also nodded in agreement.

Seeing this situation, Tiantong Lai Chang couldn't say more, so he had to say, "Since that's the case, then let's wait a little longer in Gangcheng!" You must strictly guard your own troops, and you must not go out of the city to pursue without authorization, so as not to be ambushed by the Tsugawa family! ”

"Hah!"

Seeing that this was already the case, Tiantong Lai Chang and the others were still unwilling to send troops, Yan Ze was full of complete death. If Yan Ze Manzhong still had any worries in his heart before, but now it has come to naught.

........

Ohanazawa Castle, the Tsugawa family's troops retreated all the way, and arrived at Ohanazawa Castle in the afternoon of the same day.

As soon as he entered Ohanazawa Castle, before everyone could catch their breath, Tsugawa Soji's next order came again, "Continue to retreat!" You have to arrive at the small country town early tomorrow morning! For a while, the retainers of the Tsugawa family began to understand again.

If today's retreat to Ohanazawa Castle was a feigned retreat in order to lure the Mogami coalition forces in Okajo Castle out of the castle, then why did they retreat to Kokoku Castle now? It's really incomprehensible!
