Chapter 62: Sending Troops

"Did Yamada Masamura say so?" Mizuno Nobumoto looked at Hisatsu Toshikatsu and asked in a deep voice. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info His expression was very bad, and it was obvious that the conditions proposed by Yamada Masamura were not within his acceptance at all.

"Yes......" Hisamatsu replied cautiously, in fact, because of his jealousy of Yamada Masamura and certain factors, he came in without permission with many unreasonable conditions.

"Got it...... Let's go down. Mizuno Nobumoto said lightly.

This tone made Hisatsu Toshikatsu even more frightened, and hurriedly continued to persuade, "My lord, that Yamada Masamura is so rude, he didn't put his family in the ...... at all."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mizuno Nobumoto, "Let's go down......" At this time, Hisamatsu Toshikatsu finally heard the impatience in Mizuno Nobumoto's words, and hurriedly left.

Looking at the back of Hisamatsu Toshikatsu who disappeared at the door, Mizuno Nobumoto suddenly felt a little sad, "Is it true that the family can't rise?" ”

Mizuno Nobugen is not a fool, there are too many flaws in Hisamatsu Toshikatsu's words, at least Mizuno Nobumoto has a hard time believing that kid from Yamada Masamura dares to make such a harsh request. In this way, it can only prove that Hisatsu Toshikatsu deliberately made trouble in this matter. As for why he did this, Mizuno Nobumoto didn't bother to pay attention.

"Someone's coming!" After pondering for a moment, Mizuno Nobumoto suddenly shouted, and then a young surname walked in quickly.

"Bring pen and paper."

After a while, Mizuno Nobumoto wrote a letter, ordered his cronies to give it to Yamada Masamura, and asked for a handwritten reply from Yamada Masamura.

Although Mizuno Nobumoto didn't believe Kumatsu Toshikatsu's words, he still wanted to verify it. At the same time, it is also a temptation. Well? As for why not write directly to Oda Nobunaga? Hawkers, Mizuno Nobugen believes that if Oda Nobunaga really wanted to meddle in this matter, he would have come up a long time ago, where has there been no movement until now?

On the same day, Mizuno Nobumoto's letter was placed on Yamada Masamura's desk, and after reading it, Yamada Masamura only felt a cold sweat behind his back, where did he think that things would almost develop to the worst. Don't look at what Yamada Masamura said before, but if Mizuno Nobumoto really fell to the Imagawa family, he believes that he will definitely be blamed a lot, and even Oda Nobunaga may not be able to protect him.

"It's okay...... okay," Yamada Masamura thought to himself, and at the same time kept the name Toshikatsu Hisamatsu in his heart, but the most important thing now was to give Mizuno Nobumoto a reply.

Soon, Yamada Masamura wrote the letter, in which Yamada Masamura used sincere sentences that he would never use before, and at the same time, even Yu Da was proposed by him to pull the relationship. In a word, as long as the Mizuno family is willing to become a retainer of the Oda family, the Oda family will definitely not treat him badly!

At the same time, in the letter, Yamada Masamura did not mention that if he did not become a retainer of the Oda family, he would not send troops to the rescue. In fact, in the presence of the messenger, Yamada Masamura asked Maeda Keiji to gather troops as soon as possible. On the same day, he led 150 standing soldiers plus 100 temporarily mobilized Ashigaru to Muraki Castle.

There is no way, he really doesn't dare to test it anymore, if he provokes Mizuno Nobumoto, God knows if he will fall to Imagawa Yoshimoto. Although this may not be big, otherwise Mizuno Nobumoto would not have sent someone for the second time, but Yamada Masamura did not dare to bet. After all, gambling with his own future and a small fart wealthy family is really full and has nothing to do.

Well, he finally found out that he was doing it too much? Strictly speaking, what does Mizuno Ienari have to do with whether he becomes a retainer of the Oda family?

Seeing Yamada Masamura's reply, Mizuno Nobumoto's brows suddenly stretched, "Hehe, this little ghost is still a little tender......" Mizuno Nobugen sneered, and then ordered someone to gather troops. Muraki Castle has already built the rough framework in the past few days, and it can't be delayed any longer.

On the 24th, the Yamada Army and the Mizuno Army converged at the foot of Muraki Castle, with a combined army of more than 800 people. Although the more than 600 people of the Imagawa army did not lose too much in terms of troops, they were still stationed in Muraki Castle.

"Mizuno-sama, it's late to come down, so it's no wonder......" As soon as Yamada Masamura saw Mizuno Nobumoto, he took the initiative to explain why he had not been able to come to help for a long time. Although everyone understands it, this little face project still has to be done well, at least tell those who don't know that we are fine, no problem!

And Mizuno Nobumoto was also very cooperative without blame, and at the same time thanked Yamada Masamura again for his support. The two seem to have completely forgotten what happened before, and they also have a tacit understanding that they did not mention whether the Mizuno family is a vassal to the Oda family.

"Lord Yamada, now that the Imagawa army is guarding Muraki Castle, and the defense of Muraki Castle has just been observed, it is not so easy to capture." Mizuno Nobumoto said with a frown.

"That's true, but it's only a little more difficult...... Yamada replied casually. He has also seen the city defense situation of Muraki City, to be honest...... Well, he really can't look at it.

"Really? Then it's up to Yamada-sama you......" Mizuno Nobumoto glanced at Yamada Masamura and didn't ask much.

"Hehe, why don't we compare? Let's see who captures Muraki Castle first~" Yamada Masamura suddenly laughed, as if he didn't take the defenders of Muraki Castle in his eyes at all.

"Good!" Mizuno Nobumoto said in a deep voice, although he didn't say it, Mizuno Nobumoto could hear the meaning of Yamada Masamura's words. However, he has no objection to this kind of child's play, perhaps because what happened in the past few days has made him see the situation clearly?

"Brothers, let those Imagawa family waste show us how good we are!" Yamada Masamura shouted and rushed out first. Behind him, Keiji Maeda and Yukihisa Shiraki followed, and behind him, there was a ghost head like a little giant, carrying a big flag and charging with four big characters written on it, "Unparalleled in the world"!

"Unparalleled in the world? Hehe, I really don't know how thick the sky is......" In Muraki Castle, Okabe Motonobu said disdainfully when he saw this flag. No way, who made these words too arrogant? Even Tsukahara Buchuan, the sword saint, doesn't dare to say that he is a swordsman unparalleled in the world, right? It's completely a rhythm that ridicules and doesn't take the world in its eyes.

"Bow team ready! Shoot! A Imagawa samurai shouted. Immediately, countless arrows were shot from Muraki Castle.

"Raise your shield! Keep rushing! Keiji Maeda shouted, casually removing the arrows that flew towards him.

Hearing this, Yamada Jun raised the small wooden shield hanging on his right arm, which was something that Yamada Masamura casually researched. Well, Yamada Masamura doesn't know why there are basically no shields in this era, but Yamada Masamura still researched one by himself, the cost is not very high, and it is easy to move, just hang it on his right arm.

And the arrows of this era, to be honest, are not very good in terms of strength or accuracy, and under the defense of the small round shield and the hat on the head, this rain of arrows did not cause any damage to the Yamada army at all. In the blink of an eye, Yamada Jun rushed to the foot of Muraki Castle, and looking at the broken wooden door not far away, Yamada Masamura suddenly shouted, "Ghost head! ”

"Leave it to me!" The ghost head responded loudly, and rushed to the city with a quick step, still holding a huge mallet in his hand.

"Look! What is that?! ”

"Weird...... Monsters! ”

"How...... What to do? ”

Not to mention, the appearance of the ghost head is really scary, but when he showed up, he scared a lot of Ashigaru in the Imagawa army. This makes the ghost head's charge much less difficult, after all, it is large and easier to be attacked~

"Humph! What monster!? Isn't it just that you have grown bigger? Okabe Motonobu also saw the ghost head, but he didn't believe that there were any monsters in this world, and even if there were, it was impossible to join a hillbilly family like the Oda family.

I saw him snort coldly, bent his bow and set up an arrow, and then an arrow shot at the ghost head at a rapid pace. Well, as I said earlier, bows and arrows in this era were very powerful, but now I would like to add that one is for bows and arrows. In fact, the power of the arrows shot by most samurai is quite large.

"Poof!" With a thud, the arrow struck the devil's arm.

"Whew!" The sudden injury made the ghost head roar, like an ancient beast-like roar, which scared others into a daze, even Maeda Keiji and others, who often practiced with the ghost head, couldn't help but be stunned.

Immediately, I saw that the ghost head suddenly increased its speed, and its two huge thighs kept running, and it rushed to the front in an instant.

"I'm rubbing, this is going to transform?" Yamada Masamura thought speechlessly when he saw this, but he still shouted, "Keiji! Xingjiu, go and protect the ghost! ”

"Yes!" Hearing this, the two also came to their senses and hurriedly led people to follow. There's no way, such a stupid big guy suddenly rushed to the front, isn't that a live target?

"Quick! Stop him from getting closer! At this time, Okabe Motonobu also seemed to sense the crisis and hurriedly shouted. It's just that it seems to be too late.

"Bang! Boom! Boom! A heavy knock sounded, as if it were striking on the heart of every Imagawa army. Looking at the crumbling city gate, I am afraid that no one thought that the war seemed to be so simple and would be lost.

"Don't be discouraged! Keep shooting! Aim for that big guy for me! ”

"Someone! Speed to block the city gates! Don't let the enemy in! ”

Okabe Motonobu kept giving orders, he hadn't yet conceded defeat, and as one of the leaders of the younger generation of the Imagawa family, he couldn't just admit defeat so simply.

"It's really ......" Mizuno Nobumoto, who was watching the battlefield from afar, didn't know what to say at this time, the Mizuno army and Yamada Masamura attacked from two directions at the same time, but the Yamada army was already about to break the city gate, and they hadn't approached the city wall yet.

"Whoa!" At this moment, the ghost head roared again, and a burst of monster-like roars seemed to give him new powers? Anyway, just after a few sounds, "Boom! With a bang, the gates were broken......
