When Zhu Houzhao and Xinwu returned to the place where they were temporarily stationed in the city,

They discussed, and Shintake said, "Big brother, since the old lady has already said that she has moved, do you think when we will invite Kiyoichi Hojo to talk." ”

"Today, let's just inform Kiyoichi Hojo's relatives so that they can visit Hojo, give him a chance to see his own people, and then let his relatives convince him, and then we will invite him to talk tomorrow." Zhu Houzhao said,

"Well, it's a good plan, I'll let them do it quickly." Shin Wu said,

The next day, according to the previous arrangement, Shintake invited Hojo Kiyoichi to the lobby.

At this time, Qingyi was a little haggard after a few days of detention, but he still looked very arrogant.

"Sure enough, it's the eldest young master of the Hojo family, and he's very arrogant." Shin Wu said,

"Xinwu, it's disgraceful for you to win this time, I'm not convinced." Kiyoichi Hojo said,

"Oh, then how are you going to take it?" Shin Wu said,

"You have to win me one-on-one on the battlefield, or you and I lead the troops to fight head-on, and I will only accept if you win me." Shin Wu said,

At this time, the corner of Xinwu's mouth smiled slightly, he stretched out his hand, and his subordinates handed him a long knife,

He walked up to Kiyoichi Hojo, "Okay Kiyoichi, let's face to face in a duel, if you lose, you will be completely convinced." ”

Kiyoichi Hojo's eyes stared at Shintake, "What if I win." ”

"If you win, I'll quit the city and fight again." Shin Wu said,

"If I kill you, will your men take revenge." Kiyoichi Hojo said,

"When is the time for retribution, if I am killed, the hatred between us will be wiped out, but you will have to be loyal to the rest of my brothers, and one of them will continue to be the great general." Shin Wu said,

Kiyoichi Hojo was still staring at Nobutake, he was thinking about something,

"Come on, Seiichi, if we don't fight face-to-face, you won't be convinced." Shin Wu said,

"Okay, let's fight face-to-face today, and it's certain whether we win or lose." Kiyoichi Hojo said,

Nobutake signaled, and Nobutake's subordinates handed Hojo Kiyoshi a knife, and Kiyoshi looked at it and saw that it was a real knife.

His heart moved, and some changes began to change in his cold eyes,

That kind of mental activity Zhu Houzhao looked at it in his eyes, Zhu Houzhao nodded,

In fact, Zhu Houzhao has quietly arranged for Mu Lan and Feng Zhongyan to ambush on the side, if Xinwu is in danger, they will definitely have a rescue, Zhu Houzhao hopes to be foolproof,

It's just that Nobutake and Hojo Kiyoichi don't know,

They walked to a clearing in the yard, and they were all ready,

Soon, Kiyoichi shouted in his mouth, raised his knife high, and rushed towards Shinwu,

Xinwu smiled slightly, he knew that Qingyi learned the standard battle array martial arts, this kind of martial arts is suitable for use on the battlefield, this kind of martial arts pays attention to strength and ruthlessness, and the angle is also very tricky, but it is different from the kung fu of those ninjas, the kung fu of ninjas is more unpredictable, and his own martial arts are a combination of the two, and in terms of change, his own martial arts must be stronger,

Xinwu swung his sword to meet it, he blocked the first slash that came, and then he quickly shook off Qingyi's knife and slashed directly diagonally,

Qingyi dodged one by one, and stabbed straight again, Xinwu dodged, and then the long knife swung directly at Qingyi,

One by one, he raised his knife and slashed down,

Shin Wu dodged the knife sideways, "Good kung fu." Shinbu shouted,

"Your kung fu is not bad, either." Kiyoichi Hojo said,

"Come, let's continue." Shin Wu said,

"Come on." Kiyoichi Hojo said,

And they continued to wrestle together,

At this moment, Zhu Houzhao was watching their grappling from the side, watching that their fighting was basically not developing in the direction of death, but basically in the direction of pure martial arts, Zhu Houzhao nodded,

He knew that Kiyoichi Hojo didn't have so much hatred in his heart, so it seemed that this time to subdue Kiyoichi Hojo was basically not a big problem.

At this time, there was a change in the field,

I saw that Hojo was in a sneak attack, and Shinwu bent down and slashed in front of him.

Shinwu's counterattack was also very sharp, he directly bent over his back and hit Hojo Kiyoichi, and then his own knife turned around and stabbed Hojo Kiyoichi with both hands from his abdomen,

This move is very hidden and sudden, Hojo was taken aback all of a sudden, he retreated, but Shinbu's move still has a follow-up, only to see Shinbu turn around and use all his strength to slash down in the air,

This trick is called "the cycle of life and death" in the master's gate. "Xinwu spent a lot of time practicing this trick back then, and basically achieved it.

So when he slashed at Kiyoichi Hojo in the air, Kiyoichi was taken aback,

At this moment, because when Shinbu's back hit him, he made a mistake in judgment, and lost the first move, this was a split in the air, Hojo Kiyoshi couldn't resist, he panicked and hurriedly blocked, but the knife was quickly knocked to the ground by Shinbu, and Shinbu's knife had already reached Hojo Kiyoichi's neck,

"Seiichi, you've lost." Shin Wu said,

Kiyoichi Hojo looked at Shinbu, "You won, but the revenge of killing my father does not attack Dai Tian, do you think I can forget the hatred." Kiyoichi Hojo said,

"How are you going to be?" Shin Wu said,

"If my father can be resurrected, I will return to you." Kiyoichi Hojo said,

At this time, someone was there shouting "Kiyoichi, you can't be confused anymore." ”

Kiyoichi Hojo turned his head one by one: "Mother." He shouted,

"Qingyi, General Shinbu has come to our house yesterday, he has incense on your father, I think your father should accept all this, originally your father should not have been involved in the dispute between Master Shinbu and Master Mingji, and it was your father who joined their army to go to Kyoto, and it was not the fault of Master Shinbu that your father died in the chaos, and I told you that I dreamed of your father last night, and he asked me to tell you to accept the command of General Shinmu and continue the prestige of the Hojo family." Old lady Hojo said,

"Really, Mother, that's what Father said." Kiyoichi Hojo said,

"Yes, I see that he is very peaceful, he is just worried about you, he said that you still need to be trained, but you will be the best successor of the Hojo family." Old lady Hojo said,

Kiyoichi Hojo looked at his mother and nodded, and then he heard a child's voice, and he looked in the direction where the voice came, and it was his wife and child standing there,

The child is crying out to his father,

He walked over and picked up the child, and the child smiled,

Kiyoichi Hojo also smiled,

Then he put down the child and walked in front of Shinbu,

He knelt in front of Shinbu, "General Shinbu, from now on, Hojo Seiichi is your most loyal subordinate, please forgive me for my previous rudeness." ”

Shinwu hurriedly helped him up,

"From now on, we will share the glory together." Shin Wu said,

Zhu Hou looked at all this, he smiled, these are all planned by himself, he got inspiration from the stories of Zhang Feiyi and Yan Yan in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, this Romance of the Three Kingdoms is selling very well in the Ming Dynasty market at the moment, and teahouses and restaurants everywhere are talking about this book, many of the cases in it can be used at hand, and now it looks very good.

It's just that I didn't expect this Hojo Kiyoichi to be still interesting, and he didn't let Mu Lan and Feng Zhongyan behind the scenes make a move.

At this moment, it seems that the problem of the Hojo family has been solved, and the power of Ashikaga Nobutake has been consolidated.

Most of the die-hard daimyo who supported the Japanese have died in the suburbs of Kyoto, and the promulgation of the ban on the sea is no longer a big problem, and the solution of the Japanese is just around the corner.
