The flames on Mt. Matsukura burned until dawn. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Below the main pill, almost all of them were burned down, leaving more than 100 walls in the air.

The main entrance to the castle was breached at 10 minutes of dawn, and by this time the Jinbao army had been trampled into charred pieces.

After attacking and defending in the middle of the night, both armies were very tired. The chief of the god wanted to take the Honmaru castle tower of Matsukura Castle in one go, but the wealthy clans and the people under his command did not cooperate, so in desperation, they had to go down the mountain to rest for the time being.

"When the sun is past noon, it is the time to siege the city!"

The chief of the jimbo gave an order and agreed with his generals to continue attacking Honmaru in the afternoon.

Seeing this scene, the people of the Shiina clan who guarded Honmaru couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Shiina Keinao wiped the sweat from his forehead, his handsome cheeks were stained with ashes.

"Father, please rest as soon as possible, until the Divine Protection Army attacks again, I will be in charge of the guard."

"Hmm...... Jingzhi, you've worked hard. ”

Shiina Yasuyin was relieved, although he had accepted Jingzhi as his adopted son, he was not close to him, but in the past half a month since the Jinbao family attacked the city, Shiina Jingzhi gave Kangyin a great favor with his brave battle and obedience to his words.

Yasuyin Shiina couldn't help but think that if Jingzhi was his parent, everything would be perfect.

However, nothing is perfect.

Sasa Naruma had already understood this before, but when the plan that was perfect became no longer perfect, he was still a little unhappy.

The imperfection this time comes from the flare fired in the east last night.

The flare came from Matsukura Castle and was left to Keinao Shiina before Sasa Naimasa led his team into Uozu.

At that time, he agreed with Jingzhi that when the last resort was exhausted, he would light this flare, and Sasa Naruma would immediately return to help after receiving the information.

What Sasa Chengzheng didn't expect was that Shiina was so ineffective, and it was only half a month before he could do it.

According to the original plan, he would carry out a ransack-like destruction of the Jimbo clan's territory. The burning of the castle towns was only the first step in the plundering plan.

Next, he planned to attack the mines and ports, dividing his cavalry into several squads to lure the defenders into attack.

But...... Time is running out, and under the onslaught of the Divine Protection Army, the Shiina family can no longer hold on.

"Pass the order, immediately pull out, and go to Uozu."

"Hay!"

Kawada Nagajin left in a hurry, Sasa Narumasa sat on the maza, slightly distracted, just now, he seemed to see a figure flashing.

It was a makeshift camp in their western Vietnamese, in a sparse wooded area next to the riverbank.

The cavalry was quickly mobilized, and the soldiers quickly put on their saddle bridles and were ready to go.

"Wait, wait for me."

Sasa Chengzheng was suddenly enchanted, stood up on his own, and walked towards the river embankment.

"It's just a meeting with the old people, you don't need to come with me."

As if he had eyes behind his back, Sasa Narumasa rebuked Oda Nobumasa and Sanada Hatsune behind him.

The two looked at each other, and they were both very curious about the "old man" that Cheng Zheng said.

Oda Nobumasa blinked his big eyes and asked Hatsune:

"Keep up?"

"Huh? Didn't the lord say that he didn't need to follow? ”

"He just said that he didn't need to follow, and he didn't let him follow, right?"

"Hmm...... Sounds reasonable. ”

"Let's go...... Be quiet, his ears are very smart. ”

The two crept over a river embankment with Sasa Narimasa, and as far as they could see, they saw Sasa Narumasa stop under a thick cherry tree.

Cherry blossom trees? It's not the flowering season, is he going to enjoy the cherry blossom leaves?

The doubts in my heart have not gone, and the sharp-eyed Sanada Hatsune has already discovered the clues.

"Tree ...... There seems to be someone. ”

Sasa Narumasa looked up and saw a pair of calves swaying back and forth hanging from a branch.

The legs are long and powerful, and the feet are also one size larger than the usual mud bombardment, and if you just look at the legs and feet, it seems that there is a man with a grown figure sitting in the tree.

Sassi ignored him.

"Yo...... Zuo Zuo-kun, you really found it. ”

"Don't you forget...... My martial arts are no longer what they used to be, and it's easier than ever to recognize you. ”

Sasa Chengmasa smiled lightly, he was in the camp when he saw a tall figure that disappeared in a flash.

At first, he was still a little confused, but after smelling the other party's unique body fragrance, he was able to determine the identity of the person who came.

That man...... It turned out to be the one he had missed so often throughout the year.

"What's more...... Your body odor is different from that of others, and it is easy to recognize. ”

The man on the tree seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Cheng Zheng's body smell, and snorted coldly:

"Tell me, then, what is the difference between my taste and other people's? Why have I seen so many people, can you tell the difference? ”

Sasa Naimasa laughed under the tree, and the laughter turned out to be a hearty laugh that was often difficult to hear.

"That's because...... The musky smell of you will always arouse my lust and make me want to possess you. ”

"You ......"

The man in the tree was obviously a little surprised.

Since they met, although she has spent a long time with Sazo Chengzheng, she has spent most of her time in intrigue and forbearance.

Even though they experienced the support of Kitashinano's life and death, even though they had given each other's backs to each other and were comrades-in-arms who could trust each other, they still failed to completely open the barrier between the two.

However, after missing that great opportunity, I wonder how many years they will have to wait for the next opportunity in the vast sea of people?

In the three years that they have been together, Sasa has rarely had the frankness he has today.

"Sure enough, it's a big pervert...... It's very inappropriate for you to call it a 'lone wolf in the North Continent', you should call it a 'North Continent pervert'. ”

"You're right, I agree."

The two of them were on the tree and the other under the tree, chatting about seemingly rambling topics like this, but it was a rare time for him and Sasa to be Masa.

After Sasa Narumasa seriously injured Harunobu Takeda during the Battle of Kawanakajima, she disappeared from the camp of the Uesugi family.

At that time, Sasa Narumasa knew that she must have followed the Takeda clan's army to Katsuo Castle to confirm Takeda Harunobu's death.

Maybe...... Harunobu Takeda's injuries were so serious that she died, and she still had a part of it.

She has since disappeared.

Not even a letter was left, and she was like this, evaporating from the world, and never heard from again.

Sasa Narimasa knew that the reason why she was willing to work for him back then was only because Seisa gave her a promise of revenge.

A promise of revenge to Harunobu Takeda.

However, Takeda Harunobu died, and Sanada Yukitaka became a powerful nickname that Sasa Narumasa relied on to control Kitashinano.

There is no reason for Guoxin to stay by Naruma's side, whether it is because of Takeda Harunobu's death or because of Sasa Naruma's default.

Even though Sasa Seimasa once asked Kato Duzo and Chiyo Mochizuki to mobilize all ninjas to find the whereabouts of the "Fruit Heart Layman", it was like a stone sinking into the sea.

"I know, you've been looking for me for a long time since I left."

The fruit heart of the tree said suddenly.

Sazuo Chengzheng didn't know why she mentioned this incident, but just smiled:

"I also know that if you don't want to reveal your whereabouts, no one will find them."

There was a chuckle from the tree, and the laughter sounded rather pleasant.

"You're right."

After this, the two seemed to have nothing to talk about, and fell into a brief and awkward silence.

In all fairness, Sasa Naruma has a lot to say, and he wants to tell her that he has missed her a lot over the past year. He wanted to tell her that after she was gone, he still spoke into the air many times, thinking she was still around.

He also wanted to ask her if their relationship could go beyond the employment relationship.

However, all of this was stuck in Sazo Chengzheng's throat like a fish bone, unable to advance or retreat, and at a loss.

"After being separated for so long, I just miss you, come and see you, you seem to be doing well, and I am relieved."

"So...... Bye. ”

The words fell, and Zuo Zuo Chengzheng only felt that the figure above his head flashed, and the heart of the fruit disappeared without a trace.

Cheng Zheng stood under the tree for a long time, and finally turned around and returned to the camp.

Stepping onto the broad back of the black cloud, Cheng Zheng whistled, and five hundred bows slowly drove out of the woods, looking for a way to the northeast.

Of course, Sasa Naruma understands that if he can't give her exclusive love, he is destined to not be able to get together with her.

However, in the depths of love, how can it be as simple as being together and not being together?

On the Milky Way, there is a magpie bridge to meet, but he and her, I don't know if there will really be a day of goodbye? (To be continued.) )
