Before Tsuda Masanatki discovered that the enemy had appeared outside the castle, Ishikawa Goemon had already received an order from the clan to lead his ninja army to infiltrate Tsuda Castle first. 【Shrimp Literature.xiamiwenxue.】

When Ishikawa Goemon quietly killed the only ashigaru on the lookout, he saw a ninja come to him and whispered: "Lord Ishikawa, the subordinates have already investigated, the samurai mansions in the city are empty, and there are less than fifty people left in the city, and now they are all concentrated in the attic of the training center, except for the lord and the other, the remaining fourteen ninjas have surrounded this attic, and have blown a lot of smoke inside, I am afraid that now the ashigaru inside has been slaughtered, Please decide. ”

Although the ninja did not say it explicitly, the meaning he wanted to convey was obvious, that is, to directly capture the city before the arrival of the lord.

However, Ishikawa Goemon, who has been with the clan all the year round, is a knowledgeable man, and the lord dislikes his subordinates the most, and he clearly remembers that the first of the eight slashing methods of the family is to kill those who do not obey the order, and he still doesn't want to challenge the majesty of the main attack.

However, if the situation here is reported to the lord, it should not be a big problem, thinking of this, only to hear Ishikawa Goemon immediately ordered: "Zhilu Dao, you immediately report to the lord, the defenders in the city have been slaughtered, and the subordinates led the ninjas under their command to besiege the castle tower and wait for the lord's order." ”

And the ninja couldn't help but feel a little lost when he saw that the siege was definitely no longer his own, but he didn't dare to disobey. I saw that after he answered, he cautiously ran out of the city.

And Ishikawa Goemon was not idle, immediately went to the training center, gathered the ninjas, and went to besiege the castle tower, when he and the fourteen ninjas just arrived outside the castle tower, they saw people rushing out of the castle tower, only to see that one of them was wearing a plain jacket, and one was wearing a white coat with a small surname. *.*.*/*【Shrimp Literature.xiamiwenxue.】

"Hey, this city has been taken over by the Takayama family. Where are you going? As soon as Tsuda Masatoki and his attendants rushed out of the castle tower, they heard someone behind them say lightly.

I saw that he immediately stopped and turned around sharply. I saw a ninja wearing steel armor and a steel ninja helmet standing at the entrance of the castle tower.

At this moment, Tsuda Masashi only felt a chill in his back, his whole body was weak, and the sword in his hand also fell to the ground, and now he was sure that Tsuda Castle would definitely not be able to save it.

"Lord, go quickly. Subordinate to take cover. After the attendant finished speaking, he picked up the sword in his hand and rushed towards it like Ishikawa Goemon. When he saw that the other party was still holding his shoulders and had no intention of resisting, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, although he already knew that the other party could silently capture this Tsuda Castle, there must be more than this ninja, and he might not be able to survive today, but it was worth it to be able to pull a person on his back.

But the only fly in the ointment is that the other party is just a lowly ninja, no matter how well he wears it. Nor can he change his identity.

And after Tsuda Masashi saw this, he had also come to his senses, since the other party dared to stand here, he must be completely sure, he didn't want to let his close servant who had followed him for many years die in vain, so he hurriedly shouted: "Come back to ...... quickly"

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a "poof", and a shuriken pierced his neck. And the attendant fell sideways.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen ninjas came out from all directions and surrounded Tsuda Masaka.

Tsuda Masakashi knew that in order to keep the name of his family, there was no other way out except for seppuku, but he hoped that the enemy would not embarrass his family, so he did not wield a knife to cut himself, but waited for the main owner to appear.

After a short time, I saw the clan leader leading two hundred troops to the outside of the castle tower, only to hear him say lightly: "Do you have anything else to say?" ”…,

I saw Tsuda Masashi who was closing his eyes and recuperating. Slowly opened his eyes and said calmly, "As a samurai." I had long expected this day to come, but. My family members are innocent, and they beg the adults to spare their lives. ”

"Okay, I promise not to embarrass your family, you can go with peace of mind." I only heard the clan sect say lightly, and the clan sect couldn't raise any interest in such a small person, and as for his family, it was even more difficult to attract his attention.

"Thank you, sir." After speaking, I saw Tsuda picking up the knife on the ground, and after wiping it clean, he slowly stabbed it towards the abdomen.

"Immediately expel his family members from the city, and I will give you a pillar of incense, and then set fire to the incense and evacuate."

In the big tent of the Miyoshi family, although it was late at night, Miyoshi Yoshitsugu and the retainers who went out with the army did not rest, but all talked about the next move here.

The reason why the meeting was held so late was because the retainers had great differences about the next strategy, so they had to tie up the military and march forward after the consensus was unified.

Although Miyoshi Yoshitsugu has inherited the family governor for a few years, but, before that, he was elbowed by the retainers everywhere, if it weren't for the Oda family Shangluo, it would make the Miyoshi family have the same hatred, then he didn't want to mobilize a soldier at all except for the three thousand banners under his command and the temporarily recruited peasant soldiers, and now such a painful day is finally gone, since Matsu Nagahide was forced away by the three people, with the support of these three people, he finally grasped the power of the Miyoshi family, otherwise it would be impossible to mobilize 20,000 troops.

However, now that he has the power, so does the responsibility, and now he has a choice to make.

After everyone sat down, I saw Nakagawa Kiyohide take a step forward and take the lead in speaking: "My lord, my subordinates think that although the army of this family is more powerful than the Oda army, but half of them are temporarily recruited peasant soldiers, and at the time of the decisive battle, the peasant soldiers are useless, and looking at the Oda army, although there are only 13,000 people, but they are all elite, so it can be seen that the army of this family is not as strong as the other party, so the subordinates think that they should not collide with the army of the Oda family, just follow the example of the Rokkaku family, choose a few cities to carry out the ridge city, and wait for their food to run out, The army will be withdrawn, and at this time, the lord is leading the army out of the city to cover the killing, and the Oda army will be defeated. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he only heard Iwaki Tomotomi, the most upright of the three of them, say, "The lord's subordinates think that they can't defend the city, and they must have a decisive battle with the Oda family. ”

In Miyoshi Yoshitsugu's heart, he still plans to face off against the Oda family, after all, he is in charge of the Miyoshi family for the first time, and he urgently needs a big battle to prove his ability, so Iwanari Yutong's words can be regarded as saying that he is in his heart.
