"If you don't let me go to see the general, I'll lose the chance to let everyone in Shanchun City live!" Jing San said with some uncontrollability, looking directly at the angry samurai, "At least let me meet the general, hand over Kimura-sama's body to him, and then tell him what the alien army looks like."

Hearing this, the samurai's vigilance slackened a little, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "Hand over your weapon, and I'll let you into the city." ”

Seeing the guard Ashigaru approaching, Jing San did not resist and obediently handed over all the weapons on his body.

The wooden fence was pushed open, and Izo rode a horse to drive the wooden cart that dragged Kimura Mizo's corpse, and slowly walked down the path towards Yamaharu Castle, accompanied by the samurai who had questioned him earlier.

Shanchun Castle is a small fortress that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and at a glance, the path to the destination is not only long, but also narrow, and even if a large army wants to besiege, it can only gather in a relatively flat place, and it is very difficult to march.

The New Guard divided its forces to guard all the roads down the hill from the inner side of Shanchun City, and in the direction of the English town, Lü Bu's army was responsible for besieging it.

The Dongying cavalry, who were originally cruising near the pass, quickly withdrew to Shanchun City after witnessing the occupation of the pass, and did not dare to have any military action to attack, even the light cavalry who wanted to deliver the letter were attacked and killed by the new guard soldiers who were ambushed in the middle of the road, which made Shanchun City a veritable lonely city.

"A lonely city, a lonely city・・・・・・." On the humble castle tower, Mori Ranmaru stroked the bowstring, frowning and thinking hard, the continuous reports made him feel confused, everything happened too fast, people were not prepared at all, and he was entrusted with the heavy responsibility of guarding the city, becoming the general of everything, and commanding all the remaining armies, but at this moment he felt helpless. "What kind of person is my opponent? What is the purpose of taking the pass by thunderous means, but sitting on an overwhelming force to besiege Shanchun City without attacking it? ”

"Allowing the villagers to collect the bodies of their relatives and send troops to block all roads is to force me to surrender and then win without a fight?" Moriran Maru is aware of the reality that the forces in the city are not enough to resist, and all clues point to this only possibility.

"My lord, there is an ashigaru who claims to have brought news of the Gentile army, and he also brought the remains of Kimura-sama." Outside the door, a samurai half-knelt and said loudly, which immediately made Moriranmaru's brows furrow.

"Sure enough, this is here to persuade you to surrender." Moriranmaru thought to himself, then turned around and said to the samurai who reported the news, "Bury the body of Kimura-sama, gather the Hachimoto samurai in the city, and bring that Ashigaru to me." ”

The gates of Yamaharu Castle opened, and Izo dismounted from his warhorse and followed the instructions to approach the castle tower step by step until he walked up to the attic that represented power.

This high castle tower is the place that Izo is still looking forward to in the period of ignorance, it is a dream city that is cultivated in the fields of the village, wiped with sweat and looked at from afar, a place full of imagination, Izo has fantasized about this place many times, but this is the first time he has been so close to this place, and he can't help but feel a little excited and nervous in his heart.

Passing by the guards, one door after another, and stairs one by one, Izo finally came to the most mysterious room above the castle tower.

In front of the elegantly patterned screen, there sat a neatly armored Senranmaru, and sitting cross-legged on both sides were the samurai of the rank of the mountain spring, and as soon as they stepped into it, Jing San couldn't help but kneel on the ground nervously and lowered his head.

"What's your name?" Moriranmaru looked at Inozo and said, and as Moriranmaru spoke, the samurai on both sides all looked at Inosan, and such a scrutiny made his forehead sweat slightly.

For some reason, at this moment, Jing San recalled the scene in Xiaojia Town, recalled Chen Xiaochu's voice, and the scene where he stabbed the samurai with a bamboo gun, and immediately straightened up and said: "My name is Jing San, I am an ashigaru under the command of Kimura-sama, and I was raided by enemy troops when I was stationed in ・・・・・・the plain branch city, and unfortunately I was captured. ”

"You can say whatever the adults ask, did you just ask you so many questions?" Izo's words were immediately interrupted by a samurai sitting on the top, and all the samurai suddenly showed displeasure on their faces.

"Please forgive the samurai, Izo is here to save the lives of all the people in the audience, I ・・・・・・."

"Needless to say." Mori Lanmaru glanced at Jing San's expression, then stood up with a smile and said, "There are several possibilities for you to come here, but the most likely is to persuade you to surrender, and you want to exaggerate the strength of the foreign army's persuasion to surrender, isn't it?" But persuasion is just a cover for you, you may have taken refuge in the foreigners, a normal ashigaru would not report in this situation, and he is still carrying the corpse of Kimura-sama, and the people behind you are only using you to test the defenders, if the stupid people can't detect it, it is estimated that you will find an opportunity to set fire to the baggage in the city tonight, and then lead the enemy into the city. ”

Jing San couldn't calm down when he heard this, this handsome long-haired man can become the guard of Shanchun City, and it is really not as unbearable as the rumors say, he can directly see through everything he thinks in his heart.

Holding his hands on the ground and leaning down, Jing San said with some pain: "My lord, we have no hope of victory, please let the soldiers in the city live." ”

"You bastard." "I'll kill you now." As soon as these words came out, some samurai couldn't sit still, and they immediately drew their katana and prepared to slash at Inozo.

"Sit down, he's still useful." Mori Ranmaru said in a deep voice, although the voice was not loud, but it had a sense of majesty, which made it impossible to disobey, and the samurai who raised the sword withdrew his weapon with some annoyance when he heard this, and sat back in his place without a fork.

"If it were Nobunaga, what would I do at this moment?" Mori Ranmaru looked at Jing San's kneeling and thought, and then smiled and said, "I want to have your relatives in Ashigaru in Bicheng, this is the only reason I can think of." ”

"You go down the mountain and tell the Gentiles that it is impossible for me to surrender, but I can sacrifice the city, provided that the Gentile army withdraws and let me take the army to Bird City." Mori Lan Maru said unhurriedly.

"My lord, such conditions are impossible, I ・・・・・・."

"You just have to convey that these foreigners are Tang people, don't they like to bargain, then let me see what kind of opponent this opponent is." Senranmaru interrupted Isando again.

Unexpectedly, the meeting with the guard was such a result, and Izo was taken away from the castle tower in some frustration.

"Are you going to face Lord Chen like this?" Walking to the gate of Shanchun Castle, Jing San was a little reluctant, and he kept observing everything around him along the way, but he was never able to find Jing Suke's figure.

Suddenly, a shout of killing sounded, and the continuous shouts resounded throughout the mountain, interrupting Jing San's thoughts.

"What's going on, isn't it?" There was a dull sound at the gate, which immediately caught Izō's attention, and the cracked lines covered the entire gate, making it look very unreal.

"Kill the guards of Shanchun City and become the future city lord." "Dedicate the head of the Shanchun City guard and be the name of the future." The noisy voices kept coming from outside the wall, and Jing San could hear that these were all Dongying words.

"It's the New Guard." The gate finally shattered, and Izo, who was standing directly opposite the inside of the gate, watched in amazement as a pair of wielding silver hammers entered from outside the door and smashed into the surrounding ashigaru and samurai, causing a wail all the time.

Pei Yuanqing rushed to kill, but unexpectedly saw Jing San who was stunned on the way to his killing, and looked at the surprised appearance of the other party sitting on the ground, and immediately smiled: "What, are you kid planning to lie here and not leave?" Quickly stand up and squat aside, under the discipline of Tang Jun, no one will hurt you. ”
