On the second day of the stabilization of Shichinohe Castle, Igen Tetsu ordered Igen to stay behind and repair the defenses of Kage Castle in case Ishikawa Takanbu of Tsukimori Castle raided. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He took Teng Xin and fifty horsemen back to the base of Tsugaru Aoyama Castle, it was time to go back and prepare, the southern family suffered a big loss in the northern county, and they would definitely not give up the northern county like this, maybe they would gather the samurai under their command to attack.

"Drive! Drive! Fifty-two people galloped on horseback on the road to Tsugaru, and the wound on Imoto's left shoulder was torn and bleeding from the bump, and the pain made his lips slightly pale.

"Do you want to take a break?" Teng Xin looked at him and asked worriedly.

Although Iyuanzhe's horse slowed down, it still didn't stop, he wanted to return to the base before dark, there were too many things to do, the current lack of troops to the offensive against the southern family was halted, and Nanbu Harumasa was likely to mobilize troops to deal with him.

"Hiss~ I can't die, I still have to rush back today."

"Yes." Teng Xin had no choice but to obey when he heard Yi Yuanzhe's words, and he rode his horse and slowed down and walked close to Yi Yuanzhe.

Just as they were hurrying on their way, there was the sound of a fight in front of them.

How can there be a battle here? So they rushed over directly, only to see the three of them dressed in purple, surrounded by a group of more than 20 people in disheveled clothes.

"Humph! Boy, you're going to die now, as long as you lay down your weapons and leave, leaving you alive, but these two women stay hehe.......... A man with a white scarf on his head and a katana said arrogantly to the young man with a scimitar.

"Don't think about it, you scum." The young man replied contemptuously, but with a solemn expression. The two girls were also flushed with anger from the foul language of the others.

Looking at the two girls again, Yi Yuanzhe's pupils shrank, so why did one of them seem to have seen it somewhere, Matsumae Zegao? He remembered that this was his sister who had come to Kozen Castle with Matsumae Sawataka last time.

The leader had been looking at the two women with obscene eyes, and as soon as he waved his hand, his men immediately attacked them with all kinds of inferior weapons of varying lengths.

Sou! An arrow suddenly pierced the throat of the arrogant man just now, and he clutched his throat and fell down in disbelief. The others were also frightened by the sudden turn of events, and the attack stopped.

The man who was beside him, who looked like a leader with a toothpick in his mouth, also drew his knife and stood up.

More than fifty horsemen rushed over under the leadership of Teng Xin, Teng Xin took the lead and brandished a vermilion spear to pierce one person, and the rest of the soldiers of the Yiyuan family also easily killed them and fled.

The leader saw the men turn in horror and ran.

"I want to run!" The young man who had been besieged just now flew over with a shuriken and hit the man's leg. Then after the man fell, he ran directly over to kill him, Teng Xin's spear stopped directly at the young man's throat, and the young man didn't dare to move for a while. The leader was also set up by the Iyuan army.

Iyuanzhe rode over and looked at Matsumae Sakurahime with a smile and said, "Why is the young lady of the Matsumae family here?" What about your brother Zegao? ”

Matsumae Sakurahime blushed and lowered her head, she actually met this guy here, and he saved us.

She slurred, "That...... This, brother, he went back, I just wanted to come to North County to hang out, but I didn't expect to meet these robbers. ”

Yi Yuanzhe smiled and did not continue to talk, then dismounted and walked to the captured leader, who had already been frightened and weak, and he recognized the flag behind the soldiers.

"What's your name? Bandits? Yi Yuanzhe was also curious about who these people were.

The man immediately ignored the pain in his leg, knelt down and replied, "My lord, the villain Manli is the leader of a cottage near here. ”

That's right, he's Mansato, the man who caused Aji to be arrested before, but because Aji never mentioned it to him, all Igen Tetsu didn't know that there was still this person in Tsugaru before.

After the destruction of the Kurokawa family, Manri fled to Beijun in fear, but he didn't expect to join this bandit cottage because of a little martial arts, and then killed the original leader and occupied the cottage himself.

"What are you holding them for?"

Manli heard Yi Yuanzhe's inquiry, and hurriedly lay on the ground and trembled: "My lord, we ...... We happened to see the three of them alone, and we thought...... I beg the adults to spare my life...... "The humanity of this kind of person is always arrogant when bullying people who are weaker than themselves, but once they find that they are stronger than themselves, they wag their tails and beg for mercy.

Yi Yuanzhe didn't speak again, then gave Teng Xin a look and turned around, the two soldiers pulled up Manri's arms, Teng Xin drew his saber and waved his katana under the desperate gaze of Maimanli with both hands, and Manli's head fell to the ground. The others who were caught all fell to their knees and begged for mercy, and some were even frightened into incontinence by Manli's tragic situation, and it is no wonder that they may have been ordinary farmers before they became bandits.

The remaining dozen or so bandits who were captured were also beheaded by the rest of the Yi Yuan family, and their heads, corpses, and blood stained the ground red. Yi Yuanzhe didn't know how he could become so cold-blooded, but being kind to this kind of person was cruel to the people in the territory.

The picture of more than a dozen people being beheaded together startled Matsumae Sakurahime, and he unconsciously took two steps back in the face of Iyuanzhe who came over.

"You, what are you going to do?" Matsumae Sakurahime said as she watched the man approach and stepped back.

Yi Yuanzhe shook his head and said, "Why didn't you go back with your brother?" ”

"Huh?" Matsumae Sakurahime glanced at Chizuru with an unnatural look on her face and said, "I came to Kita-gun because of the family business. ”

"Don't you know that North County is at war? Does your brother really know? Yi Yuanzhe leaned his pale face closer and smiled, "Isn't it safe here?" ”

Matsumae Sakurahime's delicate face was even redder, and no man's face had ever been so close to her, and she suddenly saw Iyuan Zhe's playful gaze and pushed him away.

The wound on Yi Yuanzhe's left shoulder was torn while riding, and he suddenly pushed it hard, and hurriedly covered his left shoulder and bowed up, blood oozing out of his fingers.

His subordinates hurriedly supported him, and when Teng Xin saw this, he hurriedly pointed a gun at Sakurahime, and the adventure army also drew swords to surround them.

Yi Yuanzhe never expected this little lady to work so hard, and she wouldn't tease her if she knew it, she really couldn't live by herself.

Teng Xin put down his gun. Yi Yuanzhe ordered, Teng Xin had to glare at Sakura and withdraw his spear, and the rest of the army also withdrew his sword.

Sakurahime opened her mouth to speak, she didn't expect that she would bleed so much if she pushed him.

"I don't blame you. Wounded yesterday. Yi Yuanzhe saw her panicked eyes: "Where are you going?" It's best to get out of North County quickly. ”

Sakurahime looked at his pale face and replied, "Go home." But suddenly the thought of going home to marry into the Soma family showed helplessness on his face.

"Well, good. Don't go to Antlers, where there is war. Go south to Sanhe via Kunohe, but remember not to go near the Pillar Sen area in the North Gun. The northern county is no longer safe, and it is nothing under the control of my army, but you must be careful of other samurai. Yi Yuanzhe kindly reminded: "And it's best not to do dangerous things." With the help of several of his subordinates, Iyuanzhe stopped the bleeding.

Hearing his words, Matsumae Sakurahime suddenly felt a warm current in her heart, and Chizuru looked at them with a smile on the side.

Iyuan Tetsu was about to get on his horse after his subordinates changed the medicine for him and strengthened the cloth belt for the wound, but Sakurahime suddenly bit his lip and said, "Can we go to Tsugaru with you?" Isn't my brother coming to you again? I'm waiting for him in Tsugaru. It suddenly occurred to him that if he stayed in Tsugaru, he wouldn't have to go back so quickly, and naturally he wouldn't have to get married. Her eyes narrowed again at the thought of this.

Yi Yuanzhe was looked at by her like this, and he sighed in his heart, what is this little girl's idea? Looking at this wild place, it is indeed unsafe. So nodding, Teng Xin vacated two horses for them, Sakurahime and Chizuru rode together, and Teragoro rode a horse, but he had a strong interest in Teng Xin's red gun, so he said nicely next to him that he wanted Teng Xin to give him the red gun to play with.

The men who had given them two horses were also brought by the others, so that Igen Tetsu went to the Tsugaru Prefecture in pain from a shoulder injury.
