Chapter 105: Iwami Fights

"Kuroda-sama, why are you so arrogant? The number of opponents is indeed large, but it is not so bad that they don't even have the courage to face the enemy! Irita Yoshishi asked unhappily, saying that it was serious, he had already questioned the decision of the commander.

"And the elder brother has already led people to set off, as long as we can hold on for two or three days, presumably the elder brother will be able to solve all the problems!"

"Then let those 3,000 people go to Iwami Province? There's an important Iwami silver mountain there! Yoshimi Irita said loudly.

"This ...... Brother, as I just said, the actions of this group of centaurs are very suspicious, can you be sure that they are really going to Iwami Province? If they didn't go to Iwami Province, but deliberately lured us out of the city, no matter how strong our soldiers were, it would be difficult for them to be the opponent of the 5,000 prepared enemy army! Irita said.

"It's just that I think that we should still go out of the city to fight, as long as we can attack the team of the Otomo family here, presumably the entire Otomo family's plan may be disrupted by us, and when the time comes, everyone will work together, are you afraid that you won't be able to win against the Otomo family?" Yoshimi Irita said loudly.

Obviously, Irita Yoshimi is very dissatisfied with the Kamiki Castle, he has been thinking about revenge against the Otomo family since the second-order collapse more than ten years ago, and now that the Otomo family army is in front of him, how can he not be blushing? Now Kuroda Toshitaka and Irita Totoshi have agreed to hold on to the castle, which makes him very unhappy.

"It's just that we don't have many people in the first place, and I don't want to take this risk." Kuroda said.

Irita Yoshimi lowered his head, looking gloomy and dripping water, Kuroda Toshitaka saw his appearance, and immediately said: "Irita-sama, I know the blood feud between you and the Otomo family, and I understand your feelings very well, but you have been waiting for this opportunity in the Kuroda family for ten years, are you still in a hurry at this time?" We only need to wait for less than two days, when the elder brother comes, it will be when we defeat the Otomo family, do you want to rush out and take risks now and lose the chance to finally set foot in Kyushu and take revenge on the Otomo family in person? ”

"This ...... But. Irita Yoshimi wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Kuroda Toshitaka.

"Lord Irita, there's nothing to do, at the moment we are the weaker side here, if we can't bear it, we must be the ones who lose in the end, if we don't even have a name, what are we talking about revenge on the Otomo family?"

After Irita Yoshimi took a long breath, he calmed down his mood before bowing to Kuroda Toshitaka and said, "Second Lieutenant Zuobei, your hard work has been completely understood, and you will guard the city until the arrival of the lord." I must live in the next and take revenge on the Otomo family in person. ”

"Irita-sama said it very well, and since that's the case, I'm relieved." Kuroda Toshitaka finally convinced Yoshimi Irita.

"Are the Kuroda family ready to fight?" Yoshihiro asked.

"The Kuroda family's defenders are all cowering in the city, and they have no intention of going to war at all." Yoshihiro Kanri's sister-in-law, Yoshihiro Jinshin, replied.

"Didn't even the hot-tempered Yoshimi Irita, who had a hatred for exterminating the clan with his family, not go to war?"

"Hey! Yoshimi Irita also had no intention of fighting. ”

"It's really interesting! It seems that the military master is still powerful, everything is under his control, and now we are waiting for the team that went to Iwami Province to destroy the Iwami Silver Mountain of the Kuroda family, and we can start the final step," Yoshihiro said with a smile.

"I really didn't expect that the Kuroda family, which is so miraculous, is nothing more than this in the palm of a military adult!"

The one who led the 3,000 people of the Otomo family to prepare to destroy the Kuroda family Iwami Silver Mountain was the famous Kyushu general Shiga Kinmori, who was an important minister under Otomo Sorin, in fact, as early as the fifth year of Eiroku (1552 AD), he gave the family governor to his son Shiga to live in seclusion, and then became active as the lord Otomo Sorin, Otomo Yoshitomi.

In the sixth year of Tensho (1578 AD), he participated in the Battle of Ogawa with the army of the Otomo family, and in the fourteenth year of Tensho (1586 A.D.) he participated in the Battle of Tomosa, but unfortunately these battles ended with the defeat of the Otomo family, especially the Battle of Otogawa, he lost his sister-in-law Shiga Qindu, and it was regarded as a white-haired person to send a black-haired person, and experienced a human tragedy.

After that, Shiga returned home and served as the second guardian of his grandson, Shiga, and attended the funeral of Sorin. At the time of the Battle of Bunroku, as an elder in the family with both prestige and ability, he was responsible for staying behind in the Bungo Kokudai Tomo family, and the trust that the Otomo family has always had in him can be seen.

It is precisely because Shiga is deeply trusted by Otomo Sorin, and he is also very capable, that he was able to accept such a dangerous mission.

Unlike Nagato Province, Iwami Province is the area closest to the territory of the Otomo family's Toshimae Province, and if there is any unfavorable situation, they can immediately retreat to Toyozen Province.

Iwami Province is different, at least the Kuroda family still has a lot of people in the Boqi Province and Bigo Province, as long as the Kuroda family can respond quickly, this army of 3,000 people is really not enough.

It is precisely because this mission is very difficult, so Kakuma Ishizong's request for Shiga is only one word "fast", as long as Shiga's army advances fast enough, it can naturally quickly destroy Iwami Ginzan, and then quickly retreat and join the army, and then it will be relatively safe.

Just as Shiga was urging the army to move forward quickly, he encountered the 3,000 army of the Mori family on the way.

After the Maori family surrendered to the Kuroda family, they have been very respectful for more than two years, after all, the Kuroda family is really good to the Maori family, and there has been no embarrassment.

In particular, several leaders of the Mori family, such as Mori Terumoto, also saw the strength of the Kuroda family after the Mori family was defeated by the Kuroda family, and the Mori family, which now only has 100,000 stones, is not the opponent of the Kuroda family at all, and it is normal to be well-behaved.

The biggest change in the Maori family is actually the change in their soldiers, the Maori family has also been separating farmers and soldiers in the past two years, although it is not yet to the extent that the Kuroda family is basically a standing army, but among the current 3,000 people, there are 1,000 people who are standing elite soldiers.

These people are all veterans who fought with the Maori family in the south and the north, and they are all fierce men who lick blood with knives, and there is absolutely no problem in terms of combat effectiveness. The other 2,000 people were also semi-standing peasant soldiers trained according to the methods of the Kuroda family, and their combat effectiveness was far stronger than that of the peasant soldiers who were temporarily conscripted.
