"Report! The Oda Army has captured Nagashima Castle! ”

After an hour or two of confrontation, a ninja soldier galloped to Ji Qin's side and reported in a loud voice. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ji Qin glanced at the Long Island Army who were waiting not far away, and asked the ninja army, "Have all those monks on Long Island escaped?" ”

"I've escaped, I'll be here in half an hour!"

Ji Qin nodded, and ordered Inutaro beside him: "Pass the order to Keiji Maeda and let him bring the team over!" ”

"Yes!"

Soon, the two hundred cavalry who had been cruising quickly rushed towards the convoy, and then, under the protection of the cavalry, the entire team bypassed the Long Island Army and slowly marched towards the location of the Jiqin Army.

In the formation of the Long Island Army, the Wishing Temple Zhenghui looked at all this coldly, and did not want to continue to do anything to the convoy, at this time he already knew that he could not do anything, and he already had the intention of retreating in his heart, but he did not dare to order a retreat easily, because he knew that once he retreated, after being stuck by the cavalry, only death awaited him.

But now, the convoy began to approach the Ji Qin army, which meant that Ji Qin was ready to withdraw. After Ji Qin retreats, there may still be a chance! Zheng Hui thought so, and did it at the same time.

The Long Island Army slowly moved its formation as the convoy moved, adjusting from the defensive formation after being surrounded to the attack formation facing the Jiqin army.

"Sheng Xin, Gu Sheng, you two will leave with the convoy first!" Looking at the convoy that spared the military formation, he seemed to see a pair of beautiful eyes in a glance, Ji Qin turned his head to stare at the Long Island Army, and commanded the two people beside him in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

A thousand people slowly retreated, and only three people from Qingci and two hundred cavalry were left beside Ji Qin. Zheng Hui calmly watched more than a thousand people turn their backs and leave, twisting the Buddha beads in their hands, and their lips did not move.

Ji Qin's two hundred cavalry brought him infinite pressure, so that he did not dare to act rashly now that he had an absolute advantage in troops.

"Lord, it seems that the old monk doesn't dare to move!"

Keiji licked his slightly chapped lips and said to Ji Qin with a smile. Inutaro and Kotaro on the side both had the corners of their mouths raised, and only Ji Qin kept looking in the direction of Nagashima Castle. Seeing that Ji Qin didn't pay attention to him, Qingji also put away his smiling face and looked at the Long Island Army not far away seriously, hoping that they would rush up so that he could kill him.

"Alright, almost, let's withdraw!"

Looking at a group of people fleeing in the distance, the bald heads that reflected all kinds of visible and invisible light in the sunlight made people know their identities at a glance, and someone in the Long Island Army also discovered the appearance of these people, which caused a commotion, and Ji Qin also chose to retreat at this time.

"Lord, the enemy formation is in turmoil, we will definitely have an extraordinary harvest at this time!" Seeing that Ji Qin had turned his horse's head and was about to leave, Qingci glanced at the Long Island Army formation and suggested urgently, but Ji Qin didn't reply, just replied lightly: "There's no need!" ”

Seeing that everyone was leaving with Ji Qin, Keiji sat on his horse and pouted, and beat his horse to keep up with the troops. With Ji Qin and the others leaving, Zheng Hui finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the group of bald heads who were gradually approaching in the distance made him have a bad guess in his heart.

Sure enough, when Zhenghui learned from the mouth of a monk that Long Island Castle had been lost, he just looked up to the sky and sighed, and finally made a very helpless decision: the peasants and soldiers were dismissed on the spot, and all the monks went to Stone Mountain (Stone Mountain Honganji Temple, where the sect leader is located).

When Ji Qin got the news, it was already evening, and the army was resting in a temple at that time, after getting this news, Ji Qin didn't care too much, after all, the monks who saved Long Island City were just thinking about retaining the power of Long Island City, so that they could be used by Zhenghui and others to counterattack Long Island City. Do they want to go back to Stone Mountain, or stay on Long Island to lurk in the capital and Ji Qin.

"Keiji, Changsheng, you two continue to protect the princess of the city and go to Guanyin Temple City, I will rush back immediately, while dealing with everything that will happen next."

"Yes!"

What was the specific situation, Ji Qin didn't say, and the two didn't ask, and Ji Qin also got up immediately, took Inutaro and Kotaro to fight the horses, and when he was leaving, Ji Qin felt a gaze behind him, frowned and looked back, but only saw the curtain on the carriage that was still shaking slightly.

Ah Shi, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly felt a sense of loss, she was afraid that she would return with Ji Qin all the way, but now seeing Ji Qin leave, in addition to joy, there was some loss in her heart, which was really incomprehensible.

News always runs faster than people, and on the day that Ji Qin and the three of them stepped into Minami Omi, a letter was presented in front of Ji Qin.

"My lord, the retainers led by Haibei Tsunashi are impeaching the lord in the middle of Kotani Castle to the main hall."

Ji Qin looked at the letter sent by the crane while listening to Kotaro's account, which came at the same time as the letter.

Putting down the letter, Ji Qin said calmly: "My lord, I'm afraid it won't last long, and it's impossible for Takeda Ju to let go of this opportunity." ”

"What are we going to do, my lord?"

"You don't need to do anything, just wait for the lord's disposal, okay, you go down, go tomorrow and bring Tsuru Chiyo back to Guanyin Temple, and Inutaro and I will go back directly tomorrow."

"Yes!"

It wasn't until Kotaro stepped back that Yoshiqin thought about the contents of the Tsuru's letter. In the letter, Tsuru recounted the recent situation of the Kannon Temple City, and the newly accepted retainers also performed well, especially Nankobo Tianhai, and the excellent ability to deal with government affairs made Yajiro praise it. The beginning of the letter was good, but then, Tsuru said that Onodea had a letter saying that he hoped that Tsuru would take Konohamaru to live in Otani for a while, and that the letter was sent after the news of Yoshiko's affair with the Oda family gradually spread in Omi.

Crane's letter is to ask what to do with Ji Qin. All this made Ji Qin think of the Duchess, a woman who was more than eighty in wisdom and government affairs.

If there is one more person, it is Nagamasa's father, Hisamasa Asai. Although it is two people, their idea should be the same, that is, to control Ji Qin by controlling Ji Qin's wife and children.

Although Ji Qin understood, he had to obey, after all, he was a retainer of the Asai family, and Tsuru was also the adopted daughter of Onoden.

On the third day, Yoshiqin and Inutaro returned to Kannonji Castle, and the next day, Tsuru took the carriage to Kotani Castle with Konohamaru in his arms.

And in Xiaogu City, Changzheng and a large group of retainers are still arguing. The retainers suggested that Yoshiqin be severely punished, and Nagamasa also kept saying that "although the rumors are not groundless, they also need to be investigated, and the specific results need to wait for the detailed report of the Koga ninja." ”

And after Tsuru and Konohamaru arrived at Kotani Castle, Koga's report was presented in front of everyone, and after reading it, Nagamasa smiled slightly, while Haibei Tsunami and the others had very ugly faces.

As for Koga's report, it can be summed up in three words: no evidence!
