Chapter 273: The Raid That Reversed Fate (1)
"Woo......" The battlefield resounded with the long sound of the conch.
"Oh!" Groups of soldiers lined up in formation. War horses neigh, spears like a forest.
"Kill!" The soldiers in two formations slowly began to move, and then began to accelerate......
At this moment, Masahiro was holding the word Jigang in his hand and standing in the center of the battle between the two armies. Watching the horses' hooves approaching. The earth began to shake.
"Boom ......"
The riding arrays swept by the tide collided with each other with strong inertia, and in an instant they bloomed into brilliant waves, the human body was thrown away, the war horses screamed, the cold glow of the blades confused the gloomy sky, and the red blood stained the cold earth.
"Ahh Zhengliang pulled out the sword and raised his head to the sky and roared...... Then the sky suddenly turned black, as if nothing had ever happened.
"Your Highness? Your Highness? Someone in the darkness seemed to be calling out to him anxiously. In a trance, he saw a door. He staggered towards the door, then slowly pushed it open.
The intense light instantly entered his eyes, causing him to close his eyes for a moment.
"Your Highness, Your Highness is awake" At this time, a cry of surprise sounded in his ears.
Masashi slowly opened his eyes. The first thing that catches your eye is Masanao Kinoshita, then Shigemasa Yoshida, Andel, and Shinoburo Roche...... All the retainers were now gathered around him.
"It's... Where is this? Masato felt that there was still pain in the back of his head, and he couldn't help but touch the back of his head and asked.
"Great, Your Highness. You've finally woken up," the retainers said in surprise.
"Your Highness, this is the entrance to the secret passage leading to Kishidake Castle from the family's western territory," Kinoshita said.
"Kishigaku Castle?" Masara closed his eyes and muttered to himself.
"Oops" seemed to suddenly remember something, and Masarashi exclaimed, "What time is it?" What happened to Kishigaku Castle? Yinuo? Black Hawk. Come and report it. The moment his brain was completely sobered up, Masashi asked several questions one after another.
"Your Highness, Kishitake Castle has not yet been captured" Kinoshita Masanao immediately said what Masarashi was most concerned about, "In order to allow His Highness to evacuate safely, Lord Tadajiro pretended to be His Highness and stayed in Kishitake Castle with part of his own army. Now that the coalition forces of the Wave family are storming Kishigaku Castle, I am afraid that Tadajiro-sama may not be able to support it for too long. ”
"So, Guangzong and Zhengzhong?" Masashi said with a sudden change in his face.
"Lord Gwangjong and Lord Jungtashi were raided by the forces of the Haka coalition on their way to Kishigaku Castle. In order to delay the siege of Yue Castle on the other side of the main party, so that His Highness can have enough time to evacuate and fight to the death with the other party, he has been loyal to His Highness," Kinoshita Masanao said in a low voice.
"Ahh Masahiro was dumbfounded. Look up to the sky and roar.
"Your Highness, please calm down, the survival of this family lies in the thoughts of His Highness" Seeing Masayo's hideous face, Kinoshita Masanao immediately admonished.
"Hehehehehehe" Zhengliang endured the grief and indignation in his heart. Said miserably, smirked. His chest heaved violently.
After a long time, he closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Go on!" ”
"Your Highness?"
"Go on!"
"Yes," Kinoshita Masanao hurriedly lowered his head and continued to report, "After the two adults and the rest of the thirty people died in battle. The head was cut off by the Hata family, and at this moment the head is hanging outside the camp of the Wave alliance outside Kishigaku Castle. ”
After speaking. Kinoshita Masanao secretly raised his head and looked at Masayo's expression. I saw that Zhengliang was still with his eyes closed at the moment. The muscles on his face trembled with strong patience, and his hands clenched into fists, and the sound of "beep pop" bone friction sounded.
Seeing this, the retainers also bowed their heads nervously.
Seeing that Masashi didn't speak, Kinoshita Masanao lowered his head again and reported: "On the way to evacuate, we met the Hakata coalition forces in the direction of Karatsu who came to surround Kishigaku Castle, and in order to cover His Highness's departure, Ichino and the leader of the Black Hawk were seriously injured, and several samurai and the Black Hawk were killed. ”
Silence, deathly silence.
Kinoshita Masanao had no choice but to continue to report: "Up to now, the deserters who have taken refuge everywhere after the defeat of the family have returned one after another, but even with the soldiers stationed here, the family has less than a hundred soldiers in total, and there are probably less than sixty guards in Kishigaku Castle. Originally, he planned to directly point out that with the strength of the guards of Kishiyue City at the moment, it was only a matter of time before Kishiyue City was breached. But in the end, he still expressed it euphemistically, because he was afraid that the head of the family would be more stimulated by this.
Is this the end of it?
Masarashi asked himself repeatedly in his heart at this moment. After listening to Kinoshita's report, Masashi was really depressed. It seems that this time I sacrificed my life failed. Judging from the current situation, the situation is extremely unfavorable for the Luo family.
Although the Bojia family was defeated in the battle of Imari Bay, he still had at least three or four hundred standing troops, and judging from the situation this time, the Bojia family not only poured out, but also united some local tyrants in Tangjin Bay. That alone is that the coalition army on the side of the Bojia side is at least five or six hundred people. In addition, this time, the Ryuzoji family and the Goto family seem to have stepped in. With the addition of these two, the number of troops besieging Long'an Yuecheng this time is at least 800 people.
Why? Why did the Ryuzoji family, who had always had a great hatred with the Hakata family, suddenly intervene here? As for the Goto family, as an ally of the Ryuzoji family, it is much easier to analyze it at this moment.
Why? Masahiro pondered deeply. Now Hadogen is dead. There is no concubine in the Bona family, so who has the ability to unify the opinions of the Bona family, and even reach an agreement with the sworn enemy?
Don't? Is that the woman? Masato couldn't help but speculate. According to historical records, more than ten years later, after Hatamori suddenly fell ill and died, he fell into civil strife because he had no son-in-law at home. At this time, it was Hatamori's wife who asked for the grandson of the Arima family to return, and then tried to elect this grandson as the new head of the family. This move aroused the opposition of several important ministers in the family, and even rebelled to seize Kishigaku Castle. And this sturdy woman doesn't know what means Lu Dao used to reconcile with the Longzao temple family. Later, with the help of the power of the Longzoji family, he suppressed the rebellion and regained the real power of the family.
Could it really be this woman? In Masayo's mind, the beautiful young woman he had met in front of the tent of the Banda coalition army before the Hata campaign against the Matsuura family appeared.
"Hehe" Thinking of this, Masahiro suddenly laughed. I really didn't expect that I, Luo Zhengliang, would lose to a beautiful woman. The more Masara thought about it, the more he wanted to laugh. The last one turned out to be Ha Lu Ha Da Lang laughing.
Zhengliang's sudden performance surprised the surrounding retainers, but they were all silent, bowing their heads and not daring to speak.
Masarashi laughed maniacally as he remembered what he had been through since he came here. From appearing here for no reason, to being "posted" to becoming a lord, and then leading the people to destroy the bandits, the most desperate for the dream. One by one, the strong and powerful were destroyed under his sword. Hiromune Tsuda, Masataka Hirasa, Heiji Togo, Kiku...... Togo The familiar figures began to appear in my mind.
Is this the end of it?
No! Zhengliang shouted inwardly. Since you have no worries when you come, why should you care so much? After death, it's just a pile of loess. It's better to fight for the last dying blow. Whether you survive or die, you are worthy of this experience.
"Someone. Drums, bring the drums" Masarashi suddenly stood up and shouted.
The surrounding retainers were stunned and at a loss for a while.
"Where's your drum. Get your drums," said the political conscience of Yoshida, who had been trained in Kyoto culture since childhood, carried a small drum with him for his daily entertainment.
Shigemasa Yoshida heard the head of the family call him, and he fully reacted. Then he quickly fetched his own snare drum.
"Accompaniment for me!"
"Yes!" Shigemasa Yoshida put the drum on his shoulder and struck it.
"Fifty years on earth. Compared with heaven and earth, it is only a small thing. Look at the world. Dreams are like water, and life is one time. Immediately extinguished...... Looking at the world, in the sea and the sky, is there any immortal? Masarashi danced the "Kwok Sheng" that Nobunaga had also jumped over years later when he faced the approaching army of Imagawa Yoshimoto.
After dancing the song, Masahiro stood up, and then shouted: "Herald, assemble!" ”
Although the retainers are still confused at the moment, some people even wonder if Masarashi was knocked by Tadajiro, so he was knocked stupid. But since it was the order of the head of the family, the retainers still quickly went down to carry it out.
Zhengliang put on his mask, picked up the words of Jigang, and walked out of the tent quickly.
The sun was shining, and it was the end of the afternoon (almost 15 o'clock). The political conscience said that he had been in a coma for several hours.
"Who are those people in the distance?" Masashi suddenly saw a team of men and horses working in the distance.
"Your Highness, that's the family's slave brigade, and we're building a road to Nodaka-cho," Kinoshita Masanao behind him whispered.
"Oh?" Masarashi's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Masanao, send someone to send an order to the Kosuke of the Nogaosan Lord's Mansion to transport all the weapons in the warehouse here within an hour. ”
"Yes, Your Highness," Kinoshita Masanao immediately went down to arrange.
"Heavy government, immediately send an order, and gather all the slaves in the territory here," Masarashi continued to give a big order.
Shigemasa Yoshida also immediately went down to deliver the order.
In less than half an hour, nearly 800 slaves were gathered in front of Zhengliang. This is all the slaves in the current Luo family's territory. For ease of administration, these slaves were generally divided into teams and then scattered around the same place for labor. So as soon as they received the order from Zhengliang, these people were quickly concentrated.
"Tell me, do you want to be free?" At this moment, Masahiro was fully dressed, standing on a makeshift high platform, and shouted at all the slaves gathered under him.
"Do you want a field? Do you want to marry a beautiful lady and live in peace? Before the people below could react, Masato raised his voice again and continued to shout.
