The south wind blew and blew green the grass on both sides of the Nagara River, blowing the whole Mino full of vitality, and also blowing the Saito Michizo to cool the heart.

He thought that Yilong was in a hurry, and there were not many supporters.

But in the battle outside Eagle Mountain Castle, Yoshilong smashed Daosan's army with his absolute superiority!

After fleeing to Dasang City, Yilong didn't know why he didn't come to attack for a long time, which gave Dao San a chance to breathe and a glimmer of hope.

Dao San was expecting a wealthy family loyal to him to come to the rescue, but the reality made his heart colder and colder.

To this day, only 2,700 troops have been gathered in Daesang Castle in response to his call.

The number of troops dispatched by Yilong was 18,000, more than six times that of Daosan.

Although Dao San had long been prepared to die in the troubled times, he didn't expect to be forced into this situation by his own son, if he still thought that Yilong was his son.

This is Daesang Castle, the residence of his lord Toki Yoriyi, and at that time he instigated the Mino Hao clan to raise troops together and come to the city.

Now, it is Saito Yoshiryu and the forces of Nishimino led by the three of Mino, and the troops are coming to the city.

…… It's an amazing reproduction, Michizo thought sarcastically.

The terrible sound of the conch sounded, and the army of Yilong lined up in an array and launched an attack on Dasang City.

Dao San looked at the flag opposite and sighed silently.

It was the banner of Inaba Ryotsu, the head of the Mino three, and he was also the one who had the best relationship with him among the three. Yilong sent Inaba Ryotsu to attack him, firstly to test Inaba Ryotsu's position, and then to weaken the power of the pro-Daosan.

But at this time, any sympathy or mercy is useless!

On the battlefield, there is only life and death!

Under the delicate command of Michizo, the Inaba army suffered heavy losses and retreated in embarrassment.

"The castle of Osan Castle is strong, and Saito Michizo has commanded the law, but his subordinates have not succeeded."

Inaba Ryotsu knelt in front of Saito Yoshiryu and pleaded guilty.

"It's okay, Inaba-sama has worked hard." Yoshiryu waved his hand and said, "Please ask Hineno Hiroshi to be the second formation." ”

The samurai who approached the side immediately passed the order, and the mournful sound of the conch sounded again, and another phalanx next to the Inaba military formation activated.

Although Hineno Hiroshi is not a member of the Mino trio, he is also a well-known fierce general in Mino.

"Rush!"

When he was still fifty paces away from Daisan Castle, Hineno Hiroshi gave the order to charge.

His ashigaru men were supervised by the samurai behind them, and they roared with powerful arrows and climbed up the mounds of Daisho Castle.

Their roars were chaotic and high-pitched, whether bloodthirsty or fearful.

"That's just the case with Hineno Hiroshi."

Looking at Hineno Hiroshi, who took the lead in the charge, Michizo just laughed.

After the battle with the Inaba army, the defenders will defend the city in an orderly manner without his command. Michizo took a longbow from the hand of the little surname behind him and aimed at Hineno Hiroshi who was fighting on the city wall.

With a bang, the elongated arrow was nailed to Hineno's shoulder.

"Ahh

Hineno Hiroshi was caught off guard, roared, took half a step back, and slashed his sword to cut off the arrow.

He still had to take the lead in the siege, but he was already pulled behind by the samurai behind him.

On the castle tower, Saito Michizo couldn't help but shake his head when he saw that Hineno Hiroshi was still directing the battle.

"When people are old, not only are they lacking strength, but they can't keep up."

He felt that if it had been in that battle eleven years ago, he would definitely have been able to kill the enemy with one arrow at such a distance.

The fighting continues.

When Hineno Hiroshi came to Saito Yoshiryu to plead guilty, more corpses were piled up under the castle of Daisan Castle.

Correspondingly, however, the city's garrison was severely weakened.

After Inaba Sadatsu and Hineno Hirosashi, there was also Nishimino "wise general" Mamoru Ando, who launched the last attack of the day.

After a day's fighting, the defenders were sleepy and tired, and after a hasty meal, they fell asleep against the base of the wall and the corner of the house.

It wasn't until midnight that they were suddenly woken up.

"The whole army assembles and goes into battle!"

The samurai's order startled Ashigaru, who was still rubbing his sleepy eyes.

"Out of the battle! Night Raid on the Rebels! ”

Michizo Saito gave the order to the thousand soldiers who had been assembled.

The early summer night was still a little cool, and Michizo sat on the back of his horse and tightened his shirt again.

So many messengers were sent to Owari to ask for help, but until now there has been no news from Owari, and the son-in-law probably won't come to the rescue of his old ghost.

…… It doesn't matter if you don't come, after all, it's a troubled time.

After all, it is a world full of betrayal.

A thousand soldiers marched in the dark, and dozens of samurai on horseback also wrapped a layer of linen cloth and a layer of thatch around their horses' hooves so that they would not make a sound when they marched.

Michizo Saito staggered on horseback, and couldn't help but think of the time when he usurped Mino eleven years ago.

I remember the time...... Toki Laiyi also gave up defending the city, led the army out of the city to attack at night, and then fled south.

Now, he also wants to abandon the city, first attack the rebels at night, and then retreat to the mountains to set up a formation.

Toki Laiyi gave up the city because there was an internal response in the city, and he couldn't hold it.

And the same is true of Daosan.

"Tell you, the rebel camp is ahead."

"Hmm...... Attack Hiroshi Hineno's camp. ”

These 1,000 people were all soldiers loyal to Daosan, and in the daytime defense of the city, the weak ones were eliminated, and their steps were uniform, and when they marched in formation, they could only hear footsteps.

The veterans' eyes were cold, and they looked at the camp in front of them, as if they were looking at livestock waiting to be slaughtered.

Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, they launched a silent charge.

Hineno woke up with a sudden start, and he had a nightmare.

I dreamed that he led the army to attack the city again, but was shot by Saito Michisani's arrow. After the little surname brought water to wipe away his sweat, Hineno Hiroshi still had palpitations.

Then he heard a terrible howl not far away.

What's going on?

Hineno Hiroshi stood up, and the little surname hurriedly helped him put on his armor, and just as he was about to put on his headband, a guard ran in in a panic.

"Report! Saito Road three night attack! ”

"I've known for a long time."

Hineno Hiroshi snorted coldly and strode out of the main tent.

A raging fire had already ignited outside the tent, and the Dao San Army seemed to be very fierce.

"Don't panic! Everyone sticks to their posts! The lord will send reinforcements soon! ”

He drew his sword and began to patrol the camp, rushing up to kill a lone soldier of the Michisan, and if he encountered a small warband fighting each other, he led the guards to rush up and repel the Michisan.

His way of fighting by example greatly boosted the morale of his own side, but his personal guards also suffered heavy casualties and were quickly attritional.

In only a quarter of an hour, he became the commander of the light pole.

"Hold on! Don't run away! ”

Hineno Hiroshi slashed down a person who was about to escape, and shouted loudly in the camp, and it was only at this moment that his personal prowess was fully revealed.

Not far away, Saito Michizo saw Higenno Hiroshi who was rushing left and right in the camp, and the reason why his military camp did not collapse was because Hioneno Hiroshi was still alive.

Michizo picked up a gun from the hook under the saddle, and as soon as his legs clamped the horse's belly, he rushed towards Hinenohiro.

"Hineno, I'm here to take your life."
