Kikutoki Sanma is the last backup team of this operation, and he has already let go of his arms at this moment, who was still a little worried about this operation. This action of the Miyoshi family is very desperate, although Cheng does not dare to say that he will regain control of the world, but at least it will make the situation that has been controlled by the Oda family chaotic again, if it fails, the days of the Miyoshi clan's existence in will be numbered! The fierce resistance that I thought I would encounter did not actually appear, but according to the latest news from the previous news, the battle for the siege of Honnoji Temple has begun!

"It seems that I am too worried, His Highness Changyi's plan is still thorough!" Ju Shi Sanma pulled his cloak and covered his face tighter. "As long as Ashikaga Yoshiaki is gone, His Royal Highness Yoshiei will be the most orthodox general's heir! Oda Nobunaga's face will inevitably plummet, and those 'wall grasses' in will also begin to sway, and the Miyoshi family finally has a chance to breathe! But...... It's really a pity, His Royal Highness Zhengkang's injuries suffered a year ago have not healed so far, if the three highnesses go out together, this time the certainty should be greater......" Just thinking of this, he suddenly heard a strange "creak, creak、......" sound from behind, and when he looked back, it was a large number of cavalry rolling over. "Anyone else?" He said to himself. Later, the cavalry came to a place less than a hundred feet, but strangely they did not identify themselves with a banner, and each of them carried several strange riding spears.

"It's the Oda Army!!" I don't know who in the team shouted hoarsely, and after a moment of surprise, there was uncontrollable chaos.

************************************************************

The Miyoshi army in front spotted us, but did not put up in time the dense formation that infantry usually handles cavalry, the thick snow greatly slowed down the movement of the people, and the futile shouts of the samurai only added to the confusion of the troops.

"Month! Three! Keiji Maeda threw his broadsword into the air and uttered two simple but loud syllables from his mouth, having officially taken command since Mainhull finished teaching. As his order sounded, 1,000 cavalry spread out horizontally to the two flanks as they ran, except for a small group of people who wrapped me tightly, the others lined up in three rows and arranged in a half-moon formation protruding in the middle to cover the past. While the other generals were scattered and at various points in the shape of a half-moon.

"Not bad!" I secretly complimented. Although I didn't know much about military affairs, I did not miss a lot of training in Mainhull. This formation is not a formation used for assault, but for pursuit when the enemy is fleeing, and the enemy army in front of him has completely lost effective command, and this half-moon formation can cause maximum lethality.

"Cluck!" Keiji Maeda took the lead and cut one of the Miyoshi soldiers who tried to stop him in half along with his spear. The cavalry who followed behind put the scimitar in his hand and pushed it forward, and in an instant, dozens of heads rolled on the snow, bright red blood sprayed everywhere, and in an instant, countless roses bloomed.

"Quick! "A high-ranking samurai tried to gather an effective defense, but before he could finish a sentence, he was kicked down and trampled by a horse....... The morale of the Miyoshi soldiers quickly collapsed under this thunderous blow, and they began to flee aimlessly, but ...... Will they be able to outrun these devilish horses?

"Kill!" Kerr, who was three feet in front of me, let out a loud shout, and raised the body of an enemy soldier with his spear high and threw it backwards. "Poof!" Feeling that the situation was not right, "Gold" struggled forward, and this was what allowed me to escape.

"Bastard!" I cursed under my breath and straightened up to adjust my seat.

"Stop! Assemble! With Maeda Keiji's order again, the army went around in a circle together and recovered into a phalanx. Looking back, the snow behind him was littered with corpses, flags and weapons scattered in between. The chaos of the enemy army, the snow field with nowhere to hide, and the extremely wide attack surface, all of this was the result - in this only attack, not a single one of the Miyoshi army escaped from the ascension! Through the light of the torches, it can be seen that the eyes of countless dead bodies still have fear, shock and helplessness.

"There's a fork in the road ahead, what are we going to do?" Keiji Maeda came to me, and he was clearly pleased with the result.

I turned my head sideways and listened carefully, and there was a faint sound of shouting and killing from the direction of Honnoji Temple. "I'll go straight through Kyoto and go back to Katsura Kawaguchi Castle!" After I finished speaking, I knocked my legs on the horse's belly and galloped in the direction of Kyoto.

The streets of Kyoto are silent, with no lights in sight of the house, except for the occasional bluffing bark. The inhabitants of this place do not seem to have completely erased the memories of the cruel past years, and know what to do in such a situation, after all, brutal massacres like Kiso Yoshinaka do not occur very often, and the few people in power recently should be said to be quite "elegant" figures, and maybe tomorrow morning they will only change the banner on the head of the castle!

The clatter of more than a thousand horses on the stone pavement sounded like a thunderstorm that would frighten the sleepless inhabitants, but at the moment I couldn't care less!

"Who?" There was a shout from the front, and I took the horse and looked forward. After a while, the former army that had stopped still did not march again, as if it was Keiji Maeda and Ke'er who were hiding and talking to someone.

"Let's take a look!" I led Nagano Yoshimasa and others to urge the horse forward, complaining in my heart about the two guys who didn't know what to do. There were seven or eight men armed with swords and guns standing in front of the front army, but it didn't look like they had the ability to stop us. "Why are you still mushrooms here, I don't know...... It's you! "I was about to lose my temper, but suddenly I saw that the group of people led by Ji Xiu was actually Zhengqin Town." What are you doing on the streets? I don't know if the Miyoshi anti-party has entered Beijing? I asked, surprised.

"It turned out to be Lord Cheng of the Stars Army! Brother, I haven't had time to thank you for your generosity years ago! "At this time, Ji Xiu, who was in the town of Zhengqin, was wearing an arrow suit and holding a sword, his expression was relaxed, and he actually thanked me calmly." I also just got the news that the Miyoshi family is besieging Honnoji Temple, and no matter what the result is, I think we'll see it at dawn! I was worried that there would be a rebel army harassing the royal family, so I led my son and family to guard the palace gates! ”

"You guys?! Guarding the palace gates?! He looked at these people, the two sons of Ji Xiu in the town of Zhengqin were actually weaker than the half-guards of Takenaka, and those servants were not "good material", at most, they often did some rough work. "You...... Are you a little reluctant? "I don't even know how to persuade him.

"Although I can't do anything, I will do it with my heart! In any case, I am also the three ministers of the imperial court, if I am all cowering, how can I blame the people of the world for misbehaving? When he said this, he took it for granted, and he didn't have the impression of "slippery" left on me at all. "Are you on a mission? Then I won't delay you! ”

"Ahh Be...... Luckily! "I felt a fever on my face, and I turned around to hide my embarrassment." You lead 200 people with your Excellency Shokincho, and if you notice anything wrong, you will immediately protect the emperor from danger! ”

"Yes!" Yamanaka Kanosuke agreed, and led 200 horsemen out of the brigade.

"It couldn't be better!" Ji Xiu said with relief. "Even if something happens, there won't be no countermeasures!"

"I hope Your Excellency will be careful...... "I think it is necessary to persuade him not to be hot-headed." If there is any eventuality, please advise His Majesty the Emperor to put the overall situation first, and never do anything to shatter the palace! If you need anything, Katsura Kawaguchi Castle is ready to welcome you! ”

"This is natural!" Zhengqin Town Ji Xiu nodded immediately, he is basically a realistic person.

After this episode, I continued with the remaining 800 people and left the north exit of Kyoto in a short time. When I saw the hill where Katsura Chuankou Castle was located from afar, I became more and more nervous, perhaps because of the proximity to my hometown, and my heart beat violently 、...... "tom, tom, tom".

"Who? Stand still! Otherwise, you will release the arrows! "When we were a stone's throw from the gates, there was a sudden shouting over the city." This is the territory of Lord Cheng of the Stars Army, and you are not allowed to move forward without permission! ”

When I heard this, I was so excited that I almost cried.
