Chapter 238: Ninja Secret Battle
Higasaki Pavilion.
Basilica.
In the early morning, the sky was overcast, and there seemed to be some signs of heavy snowfall.
Yoshinobu Takeda was dressed in armor and stared at the 'Wind Forest Volcano' flag quietly displayed on the edge of the corner, his eyes staring and motionless.
Father, the position of the governor of the Takeda family must be my righteous faith.
Today is the third day of Takeda Yoshinobu's rebellion.
"The retainers and countrymen everywhere have not replied to the letter so far?" Yoshinobu Takeda's cold, slightly muffled voice echoed through the hall.
Nagasaka Masakuni and Sone Shusuke both knelt in the positions of the three rooms behind Takeda Yoshinobu, and only the Xuanyuan ninja Kato Duanzo stood at the door of the hall, occasionally showing a trace of disdain and ridicule when looking at Takeda Yoshinobu's gaze.
It is a mockery of the rebels.
Nagasaka Masakuni replied: "Your Highness, the letter was only sent yesterday, and no one will reply so quickly." ”
Takeda Yoshinobu turned around, shook his head, and said, "Shinano's countrymen, although the lord will not reply so quickly, but in Kai's retainers and countrymen, there should be an echo at this time. What's more, I issued it in the form of a printed writ, and I stamped the dragon seal on each letter. ”
Sone Shusuke thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness, don't rush to conclusions, maybe they are mobilizing peasant soldiers, or some people are waiting and seeing, or they are still thinking about it." ”
Takeda Yoshinobu snorted and said, "It doesn't matter what their decision is, as long as they don't get involved in the Katsurai side, they will let them go." ”
After a pause, Takeda Yoshinobu said, "Anyway, the retainers of this family, the countrymen, they all have hostages in the Kusaki Pavilion, as long as they take care of the hostages, they don't dare to rise up and resist me." I'm really worried about two people right now. ”
The two people Takeda Yoshinobu said, everyone present understood.
Takeda Yoshinobu said, "If things drag on for a long time, things will change." Changguo, Takeda Hachimangu Palace, you just tell Lord Jibu that you don't need to keep your hands, act immediately, and I have prepared for all possible consequences. ”
As soon as Takeda Yoshinobu said this, Nagasaka Masakuni and Sone Shusuke glanced at each other, and they all buried their heads in admonishment.
"Your Highness, please think twice, please Your Highness, and then think carefully."
"You guys."
Takeda Yoshinobu saw that Nagasaka Masakuni and Sone Shusuke reacted so violently that he couldn't help but take a step back, stretched out his hand and pointed at them, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Nagasaka Masakoku's eyes shed tears, and he said: "Your Highness, rebellion is already a great rebellion, not to mention that it is still a father's murder, such a violation of morality and morality, your majesty still implores Your Highness, everything is still waiting for Lord Fan Fuhu Chang, come back and discuss it." ”
Seeing the advice of these two people, Takeda Yoshinobu retreated, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
And at this moment, a samurai with the flag of the trace family flag hurriedly rushed into the main hall and said, "Report to Your Highness." ”
"What's the matter?"
Yoshinobu Takeda said weakly.
"Lord Kibe returned, today is dawn, his army was suddenly attacked by a large number of ninjas in Takeda Hachiman Palace, and in Hachiman Palace, Lord Lord and his flag warriors broke out of the chaos, and now they have escaped from Hachiman Palace."
When Takeda Yoshinobu heard the news, Huo Ran's body trembled violently like a swing, and the expression on his face changed from gloomy to dark, and then from dark to gray, and finally turned into a complete pale.
Takeda Yoshinobu felt something blocked in his throat, and for a while, he couldn't say what he wanted to say, and at this time, he saw his two subordinates, Nagasaka Masakuni and Sone Shusuke, who heard the news of Takeda Shingen's breakthrough at this moment, and their faces actually showed a trace of joy.
At this moment, Yoshinobu Takeda finally couldn't help it, and the torment, worry, fear, fear, and sleeplessness that had been going on for many days erupted at this moment along with sadness, sorrow, anger, and other emotions.
Burst!
A mouthful of blood spurted out of Yoshinobu Takeda's mouth.
Immediately, Nagasaka Masakuni and Sone Shusuke were shocked, stepped forward to support Takeda Yoshinobu, and said loudly: "Your Highness! Your Highness! ”
Takeda Yoshinobu came to his senses, broke free from the support of Nagasaka Masakuni and Sone Shusuke, and said in a deep voice: "I'm fine, say, what the hell is going on, how can a large number of unknown ninjas appear, Kato Duanzo, hasn't Hachimangu been under the surveillance of your Xuanyuan ninjas before?" What are you doing, a bunch of rice buckets? ”
Kato Duanzang's face changed slightly, and a trace of resentment floated in his heart, when Takeda Yoshinobu used them before, he was kind and kind to each other, and he was like a guest, but now he is acting badly, and at this moment, he turned his face ruthlessly and scolded loudly.
Can such a person defeat Takeda Shingen and finally seize the Takeda family governor?
Kato Duanzo looked at Takeda Yoshinobu, his eyes were calm, and he said in a flat tone: "Your Highness Yoshinobu, please pay attention to your words, we Xuanyuan are all acting on the orders of the Sugi Palace, and it is not Your Excellency's turn to scold." ”
Seeing that Takeda Yoshinobu was at this moment, he looked crazy, and in the blink of an eye, he was about to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Kato Duanzo looked at the herald warrior of the Jibu family and said, "I, the Xuanyuan people, have arranged enough ninjas to monitor the Hachimangu Palace, why is there such an omission?" ”
The samurai of the Jibu family lowered his head and said, "The ninja who attacked Hachimangu should be the Toba Shinobi who directly belongs to the lord. ”
Tobo, Takeda Yoshinobu was taken aback, he understood that in addition to employing Tokushinobi, Takeda Shingen had also formed a group of ninjas himself, called Toha.
The previous leader of Tomi was Kansuke Yamamoto, and now it is in charge of Shinnai Takakasaka.
Takasaka Shinnai, this person is said to be the nephew of Takasaka Masanobu, the commander of the Kitashinano Army.
ps: In Edo, the legendary ninja Wind Demon Kotaro was planted in the hands of this brother.
Tsubo directly obeyed Takeda Shingen's orders, and the mysterious surname has always been very high, before Takeda Yoshinobu only thought that this was just a ninja organization responsible for intelligence gathering, but unexpectedly staged a night attack, showing such a powerful combat power.
Then the samurai of the Jibu family said: "And the Xuanyuan people of Kato-sama were going to support, but they were attacked by Togakumi Shinobu Deuramori Kiyoshi and the Sanada family ninja on the way, and suffered heavy losses. According to the report of the escaped Xuanyuan ninjas, Izuura Shengqing performed extremely exquisite ninjutsu and assassination techniques last night, so the Xuanyuan ninjas suffered heavy losses. ”
"Deura Shengqing!" Kato Duanzo shouted angrily.
Deura Morikiyo, like Li Xiao Ninja Yokotani Yukishige, is a great enemy in the eyes of Kato Duanzo, and has opposed Xuanyuan Ninja many times.
Takeda Yoshinobu shook his head miserably, he was powerless to accuse Kato Danzo or Nobuaki Traces at the moment. It's only to blame him for missing a link.
Takeda Yoshinobu immediately opened his eyes and said resolutely: "Immediately order the hostages of the Tsugawa people, the Wuchuan people, and the Oyue people in the hall to write a letter, and ask them to tell their families not to meddle in the internal affairs of my Takeda family, otherwise the lives of these hostages will be in danger." ”
"Oh!" Nagasaka Masakuni agreed, and immediately went down to do it.
Takeda Yoshinobu's decision is still wise, once Takeda Shingen gets out of trouble, he must first gather the Tsugawa people, the Takekawa people, and the Gogaku people, all three of which are directly under his own Kai local samurai regiment.
Yoshinobu Takeda muttered, "Father, he will definitely not be able to muster many troops for a while, so he will not have enough strength to attack the main building. In this way, I can delay the time and let Master Fu kill Shiro and Li Xiao first, hehe, hehe, so that all the blame can be put on Shiro and Li Xiao. ”
"In the end, I cried in front of my father, saying that this rebellion was all because I heard about Shiro's bad intentions and defended myself. When Shiro dies, my father will have no successor for a while, and he won't be too embarrassed for me, and Toko Temple will be closed for a few more years at most. I don't want to give up the position of governor of the Takeda family, even if I can't sit in this position, Shiro doesn't want to sit on it, and he has to pay me a life. ”
Speaking of this, Takeda Yoshinobu looked at the tattoo carved on the wall with Takeda Ling, and there was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.
"I have no regrets about choosing this path, I am not wrong! Anyway, as long as you can survive, everything has a chance. Father, Shiro, I have a longer life than you. ”
Jumo County, Rice Rich Township.
Because of the help of the Imagawa family's reinforcements, Iitomi Huchang's offensive became more ferocious.
Due to the outnumbered enemy, the gate of the mountain city was once breached.
At this moment, even Li Xiao and Shigang Yiyu had to go into battle to kill the enemy.
Drink!
Li Xiao roared and pulled the tip of the spear out of the body of the Imagawa samurai who had been stabbed in the chest with a large hole.
Immediately, another samurai slashed, Li Xiao dodged sideways, and as soon as his body entered, he struck an elbow with his backhand, and hammered heavily on the opponent's armor heart guard.
The whole person of this samurai was overturned by Li Xiao's blow, and then Ashigaru, a wealthy family next to him, made up for Li Xiao.
Compared with Li Xiao, Shigang Yiyu's swordsmanship is even more powerful in a small space.
Originally, several Ashigaru members of the Imagawa family wanted to climb the curved wheel and attacked from behind.
As a result, as soon as these ashigaru landed, they were slashed by Shioka Kazuha.
After the curling wheel, blood poured to the ground, and the seven Imagawa family who attacked over the wall were all killed by swords in the throat.
The soldiers of the Imagawa family who were besieging the city rushed into the city by the people who relied on them, but when they saw that there were actually in the opponent's formation, one was a spear and the other was a sword, and the two people who were so terrifying suddenly had weak feet.
Since the stabbing of the narrows, the courage of the Suruga people seems to have plummeted, and they have lost no matter whether they are big or small, not to mention the brave and good warriors of Mikawa, and now the people of Toe Province are all unable to clean up.
Now that they have come to Kai and seen the courage of the Takeda family, they have lost the courage to fight.
The Imagawa family's offensive collapsed in an instant, and no matter how Iitomi Huchang persuaded the Imagawa family's generals to fight them, these Suruga people just refused.
And now Iitomi Tiger Sho is already anxious, and Takeda Shingen highlights the matter of Hachiman Palace, which is passed into his ears.
He didn't dare to tell his samurai about it at the moment, because he was afraid that if he said it, it would cause turmoil in the army.
And after yesterday's attack, nearly 100 of his subordinates have lost a lot, and the rest of the Chibei have already been sent back to the Awagasaki Pavilion by Iitomi Huchang to protect Takeda Yoshinobu's side.
Fan Fu Huchang gritted his teeth, and now he can only go into battle in person.
