Sakura Cave Castle, the main city of the sister road.

On the day that Li Xiao captured Guiyun City, not long after the news, the ninja spread the news to Sakura Cave City.

When Sister Xiaolu Lianglai heard the news of the fall of Guiyun City, he was silent for a long time.

He sat cross-legged for a long time, then glanced at his sister Xiaolu Lai Gang again, and asked, "How many casualties did Li Xiao have?" ”

"Not a single soldier was lost, and it was ...... at the time"......

"It doesn't matter what it was then." Sister Xiaolu Lianglai waved her hand and said in a deep voice.

After a pause, Sister Xiaolu Lianglai asked, "Li Xiao is under the city, and there can only be one flag book, right?" ”

Sister Xiaolu Lai Gang nodded and said: "Yes, with the three families of Yanwu, Guoshan, and Guangshu, the army is more than a thousand." ”

"Very well," said Ryori Koji, pulling out his katana from the knife holder, the blade shining on his face, which was now full of determination.

Sister Xiaolu Lianglai said categorically, "According to the military service book, a mobilization order is issued, and all men over the age of fifteen and under the age of fifty-five in the territory will be requisitioned, and I will fight to the death with Li Xiaodu." ”

"What?" Sister Xiaolu Lai Gang's body was shocked, and asked, "Father, Li Xiao has just won a new victory, and his morale is strong, and there is not enough chance of winning a decisive battle with him. ”

"You are wrong, if you don't take this opportunity to send troops, after Li Xiao integrates the forces of the Inner Island Family and annexes Guiyun Jinshan, the status of my sister Xiaolu Family Feilin Lord will change hands. Li Xiao has always regarded my sister Xiaolu's family as a thorn in his side, and the first thing he wanted to destroy at that time was his own family, so if he hadn't fought with him when his power was not strong, we would not be his opponents in the future. ”

Sister Xiaolu Lai Gang was stunned when he heard this, thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Father, what you said is good, I will go and prepare, until now, if there is no determination to break the tea and Shen Dan, my sister Xiaolu family is not worthy of being based on Feihui." ”

Sister Xiaolu Lai Gang bowed his head with satisfaction and said: "Very good, this is the man who will inherit my sister Xiaolu's family in the future, but in addition to courage, it also needs strategy." My purpose is not to divide the victory or defeat with Li Xiao, but to prevent him from taking the Uchijima family, in addition to preparing for a decisive battle, we must also contact the Jiangma family, Zhaolian Temple and other forces. ”

"Feihui has been divided for a long time, and all the wealthy clans are unwilling to see the emergence of a capable person who unifies Feihui. At present, Li Xiao is strong, and there is no need to say anything, they will inevitably contact them to challenge Li Xiao with our company. ”

"Oh. Father, I will send an envoy, in short, I must not let Li Xiao annex the Uchijima family. ”

"Wait," Sister Xiaolu Lianglai said, "You have forgotten one thing, send a messenger to see Li Xiao, express my attitude, and declare that if he does not withdraw from Guiyun City, he will wait for the time when my sister Xiaolu's family will fight him in a decisive battle." ”

On the day of the division, the plateau extended to visit the city of Jiangma's main city.

Jiangma Huisheng Yiji got the news that Li Xiao had captured Guiyun City and the inner island family had surrendered.

Jiangma Huisheng heard the details of the news, and after telling the story in detail, he sighed and said: "The fall of Guiyun City is not unexpected, Li Xiao used stone and fire arrows to attack the city. ”

Jiangma Huisheng is not weak, just listening to the detailed description, he guessed the sharp weapon used by Li Xiao to attack the city.

The old god of the family, Xingguang, sighed on the side and said: "Guiyun City is a strong city in the world, and the original Xiangzong couldn't help this city when the flying cherry blossoms were strong. I didn't expect Li Xiao to capture it in just half a day, is he a god? ”

Jiangma Huisheng snorted coldly and said: "You praise Li Xiao too much, he is a person, I admit that he is extraordinary, but in terms of his success, it is just a bit of luck and knowledge." Just like the capture of Guiyun City this time, if he didn't have a sharp weapon like the Stone Fire Arrow, even if he brought three times the military strength, he would not be able to capture Guiyun City. ”

Shen Dai Xingguang shook his head slightly, obviously disagreeing with such a point of view, but he also knew that his son-in-law was very conceited and did not put anyone in his eyes, and he was naturally dissatisfied with Li Xiao, who had repeatedly pressed him.

Shen Dai Xingguang said loudly: "Family master, now that Li Xiao has captured Guiyun City and annexed Guiyun Jinshan, we will inevitably investigate the fact that we did not follow him to send troops to the Inner Island family this time, how should we deal with it then?" ”

Jiangma Huisheng hesitated slightly after hearing this, and said, "Not bad." Whether Li Xiao acts with kindness or hatred, he will inevitably reciprocate. At that time, he pursued himself and sent troops, but it was difficult to do. ”

Jiangma Huisheng paced left and right in the room, obviously thinking about the strategy, after a pause, the cold light flashed in his eyes, and said: "If Li Xiaoruo makes a move on my Jiangma Huisheng, the current Jiangma family has recovered the power of two years ago, even if Li Xiao's army comes, it is not without the strength of a battle, and he will not dare to act rashly." ”,

"It's just that if Li Xiao uses this as an excuse to delay the deadline for the return of the Divine Circle Silver Mountain, it will be a headache. At present, the Divine Circle Silver Mountain leased by the family to the Takeda family has only the last period of less than a year, and if Li Xiao delays, over time, I am worried that I will not be able to get it back. ”

Shen Dai Xingguang said: "The Divine Circle Silver Mountain is very important to the family and Li Xiao, in recent years, Li Xiao has been able to send troops to the east and west to fight, not just relying on the convenience of the Divine Circle Silver Mountain, even Yanwu Qiuzhen, who has always traded gold and silver on behalf of his family, was also co-opted by Li Xiao to become his retainer. ”

"The head of the family, your subordinates have a suggestion, I hope the head of the family can listen to it!"

"Lord Kamiyo, please speak up."

Shen Dai Xingguang said in a deep voice: "Judging from the capture of Guiyun City this time, this Li Xiao is not a thing in the pool, and it is possible to capture Hida Yuezhong in the future." It is better for us to give the silver mountain of the divine circle to Li Xiao, and rest assured that it is the precursor, and when Li Xiao captures Yuezhong in the future, he will definitely not forget the merits of his family............

"No," Jiangma Huisheng rebuked loudly, "My Jiangma family is the queen of the Ping family, how can I be willing to be the queen, and my Jiangma Huisheng's ambition in this life is to be able to replace my father and fulfill the last wish of unifying Hida." This Li Xiaoshang is not in my eyes. ”

Shen Xingguang sighed secretly and said, "In this case, it is the subordinates who have lost their words. ”

Jiangma Huisheng's chest couldn't help but rise and fall, and said: "At present, the momentum of Feida, only the sister Xiaolu family can compete with Li Xiao, and the strategy of this family to gain a foothold in Feihui is to provoke the two strong to compete and make a profit in it." Whichever one is weak, we will help whomever we want, and we must not let any one have the time to suppress the strength of the two. ”

"But now that Li Xiaoxin is victorious, will the sister Xiaolu family provoke this head and put pressure on the Takeda family?"

Jiangma Huisheng smiled and said: "No one knows the character of Sister Xiaolu Lianglai and Li Xiaozhi better than me, these two are ambitious people who want to unify Feihui, and there will be a battle to the death in the future. ”

As soon as Jiangma Huisheng's words fell, he heard the stairs under the stairs and replied: "My lord, the envoy of the sister Xiaolu family asks to see you." ”

Jiang Ma Huisheng smiled slightly when he heard this, looked at the god for Xingguang, raised his right hand with a single palm, and his eyes revealed a sense of confidence, and said: "How, everything is expected by the charcoal." ”

"The head of the house is wise."

The second day of the capture of Guiyun City.

Li Xiaoshang settled in Guiyun City and dealt with the aftermath.

At this time, I got a report from the ninjas, saying that flying... The two strong sisters of the Xiaolu family, the Jiangma family, have already sent a mobilization force to the territory and are gathering troops.

Among them, the sister Xiaolu family is the most powerful, and this time it actually requisitioned almost all the adult men in the territory, and it is expected to dispatch more than 1,200 troops.

In addition, the Jiangma family is faintly to the Divine Circle City, and the Divine Circle Silver Mountain shows the image of gathering troops, it seems that the purpose of the Jiang Ma family is to attack Li Xiao's back road, attack Shendan City, and take back the Divine Circle Silver Mountain from Li Xiao's hands.

At the same time, there was also an unstable trend in the Shenbao family, "Several of the wealthy families close to Chengsheng City were actually secretly mobilizing.

And just now, the representatives of the sister Xiaolu family and the Jiang Ma family seemed to be in the Li Xiao military camp.

They all agreed that Li Xiao, as the first-hand service of the Takeda family in the Hida Echichu Legion, the Great Guide, that is, the general of the legion, should not encroach on the territory of the retainers under his command without authorization, which would violate the system of the samurai.

Therefore, they unanimously demanded that Li Xiao withdraw from the territory of the Inner Island Family, "and must not dispose of any people from the Inner Island Family."

Everything will be discussed by all parties in Feilin, and then the final result will be provided for discussion.

Among them, the envoy of Sister Xiaolu's family brought a handwritten letter from Sister Xiaolu Lianglai, who was the secretary of the Feida State of the Imperial Court, and the official position of Zhongnayan, and said in his handwritten letter, claiming that if Li Xiao did not follow the wishes of the people of Feihui, "they will raise an army to fight."

Seeing Sister Xiaolu Lianglai's tough attitude, although Li Xiao had expected it before, he was somewhat surprised by his actions.

Li Xiao had also thought about Sister Xiaolu's attitude before, but he didn't expect him to take such a decisive step.

This Hida hero is really very old-fashioned, "I don't give Li Xiao the slightest chance to grow up in Hida", it is clear that Li Xiao's power must be nipped in the bud.

Sister Xiaoji Lianglai clearly saw that if Li Xiao annexed the Uchijima family, it would be equivalent to breaking the current balance of power in Hida Country in one fell swoop.

Once the balance of power is broken, the structure of interests of all parties must be reintegrated. ,

If Li Xiao wants to grow, then there must be forces to sacrifice and become his cornerstone, and no force is willing to become the next cornerstone.

And between Sister Xiaolu Lianglai and Li Xiao, there can only be one person who can seize the entire Feilin Country.

After Li Xiao captured the Uchijima family, under the leadership of the sister Xiaolu family, the Jiangma family did not hesitate to follow him and stood in Siyi's position.

At the moment, Li Xiao has to admire his sister Xiaolu Lianglai for grasping the timing very correctly, now that he has just occupied Guiyun City, he has not yet grasped the power of the Inner Island family.

If the sister Xiaolu family comes to attack at this time, the samurai of the inner bird family is likely to take advantage of the situation and rebel, and then Li Xiao will face the passive situation of being attacked by the enemy.

And now for Li Xiao, the Divine Circle City and the Divine Circle Silver Mountain are also under the threat of the Jiangma family.

The two divisions came to attack, and Li Xiao also felt tricky for a while.

Li Xiao immediately summoned the retainers to discuss.

After hearing about this matter, the retainers had different opinions, but in fact, they didn't think much about it.

At present, Li Xiao has only two choices, one is to be oppressed by his sister Xiaolu's family, so he has to withdraw from the territory of the inner island family and retreat to Shenquan City.

The Uchijima family, which is so easy to subdue, will rebel again, and everything Li Xiao has worked hard to do will be beaten back to the prototype.

However, it is also the safest and safest solution.

Anyway, Li Xiao sent 20,000 troops, and it was not an empty trip.

The other option is to show a tough attitude and put on a posture of not hesitating to fight.

It's tempting, but it's risky.

In the military tent, the retainers had different opinions and were inconclusive.

Li Xiao looked left and right at the military tent, and there was only Youbi in the military tent, and Usami Katsuyuki remained silent.

Seeing that the other party had been silent, Li Xiao suddenly said, "Shengxing, do you have any opinions?" ”

Usami Minami was slightly surprised when she heard Li Xiao suddenly click on herself, in fact, she already had an opinion in her heart, but she had been hesitant to say it.

Since she showed her edge in front of Li Xiao that day, she has been low-key and introverted, and she does not express her opinions easily.

But this time, Li Xiao personally pointed at her head.

She raised her head and glanced at Li Xiao, only to see that Li Xiao's eyes seemed to have insight into her own thoughts.

Usami immediately stopped hesitating and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, have you ever thought that there is a third way to choose? ”

"How can there be a third way?"

Among the retainers, there was a buzz.

Usami Minami said with a slight smile: "It's very simple, just let the sister Xiaoji family lose the reason to come to the rescue of the Uchijima family." ”

On the third day after the fall of Guiyun City, Sister Koji Lianglai led 1,200 troops and hurried to the direction of Guiyun City.

On the road, Sister Xiaolu Lianglai was dressed in a bright suit of the world, riding on a war horse, and his heart was heavy.

At this moment, an envoy with a small flag galloped on his horse, galloped in front of his sister Xiaolu Lianglai, and immediately bowed down and said: "Report to the lord, there is an urgent military situation!"

"Say it!"

"The Takeda Army burned down Guiyun City last night, and now Guiyun City is only left in ruins."

Hearing the news, Sister Xiaolu Lianglai, father and son, looked at each other.

Sister Xiaolu Lianglai slapped her thigh suddenly, looked up to the sky and sighed and said: "I didn't expect Li Xiao to have such a calculation, I miscalculated, this person is too cunning." ”

Sister Xiaolu Lai Gang asked: "Father, why do you say that, Li Xiao burned the fortified city by himself, and did not defend it, this situation is exactly in our favor." ”

"You're wrong," Sister Xiaolu Lianglai said, "Guiyun City is worthless to Li Xiao, but it is like life to the Uchijima family.

"You know, the Uchijima family, the reason why they can fight with my sister Xiaolu family and Jiangma family in the Hida Division, is comparable, and the only one who holds it is to return to Yunjian City. Now that Guiyun City has turned into a bird, what can the Inner Island family use to resist Li Xiao, without Li Xiao's standing preparation, within a day, my sister Xiaolu's family can destroy the Inner Bird Family, so what is the use of us saving the Inner Island Family. ”

Sister Xiaolu Lai Gang washed this and then understood.

Sister Xiaolu Lianglai waved his horsewhip into the air and said: "Li Xiaozhi's ability is too terrifying, and he lives in Fei Fei at the same time with this person...... It's really the misfortune of my sister Xiaolu, God don't bless me, collect the troops, and don't have to go to the rescue of the Uchijima family, it's meaningless at the moment. (To be continued)
