Chapter 587: A Choice of Life and Death
In the castle of the Kikuchi family in Satsuta County, Higo Province, Kyushu, Kansuke Yamamoto is reporting good news to Masayoshi.
"My lord, in addition to the good news that Jia Fei is directly here, there is also good news from Shangyicheng County." Kansuke Yamamoto continued to report.
"Oh?" Zhengliang's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard this. He instantly thought of Aso Weiqian, who had been secretly sent to Shangyicheng County before. Before Aso Weichang and his son Aso Weiqian were forced to flee from Higo, their old nest was in Shangyicheng County, so Masara sent Aso Weiqian to secretly bring people back to Shangyicheng County this time, hoping that he could launch his old department there and promote the revival of Aso Weizen's family there. Is it possible that there will be results there so quickly now?
"Hehe, my lord. Aso Yuzen secretly united with Lord Kato Duanzo of Zhongshan Castle in Hyuga Province not far away, taking advantage of the negligence of the guards of Iwao Castle in Kamiyijo County, and sneaked up on Iwao Castle, and took the defender of the city, Nagano Yukikiyo, at this time Iwao Castle has been occupied by the family, as long as the army of the family arrives after that, Kamiyijo County is the family. ”
"Okay, great!" Unexpectedly, Kato Duanzo and Aso Yuzen actually gave him a surprise at this time, which made Masarashi overjoyed, so he hurriedly continued to ask, "Is there any news of the defeat of the Otomo family and the Kikuchi family?" ”
"It's a pity, my lord, no, presumably they all passed directly from Shangyicheng County and didn't make any stops." Kansuke Yamamoto said. He really couldn't understand why Masarashi cared so much about the defeated defeated soldiers. But he also knew that Masato was actually concerned about Ryuzoji Takanobu and Toji Jianren among the defeated soldiers. These two are fierce people.,Maybe when I'll give Zhengliang a fierce one.,That's what Zhengliang enjoys.。
"What is the situation in Heshi-gun now?" Since I can't get any news from these two people. Zhengliang had no choice but to turn his head and continue to pay attention to the strategy of Hezhi County.
"Yesterday, Isono Yuanmasa's cavalry team and Enjoji Nobuyin's sixth standing ashigaru team, a total of 900 people, suddenly crossed the Kikuchi River. hit the Hezhijia on the other side of the river by surprise. After a fierce battle, the defenders of the Aishi family flying to the castle were convinced that the combined forces of the Otomo family and the Kikuchi family had been defeated by the main family, and finally chose to surrender in Kaejo. At this time, the army of the two adults had surrounded the main city of the Hezhi family, and the governor of the Hezhi family, who had returned in a hurry, did not seem to have the intention of surrendering the city. ”
"Huh?" Masato couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Know the way. In history, Hezhi himself is known for his soft bones, and he has betrayed Kikuchi Yoshitake twice at a critical moment and made the latter disgraced, and even in yesterday's decisive battle, he had just betrayed Kikuchi Yoshitake, but he didn't expect this guy to suddenly harden at this time.
"My lord, your majesty thinks. The reason why Hezhi is so tough is probably because he thought that the Kagoko family and the Inner Space family, who were allies, would send troops to help, and as long as he delayed for a while, the Otomo family, who had reacted, would send troops to rescue the Hezhi family again. Kansuke Yamamoto analyzed.
"Hmph, in that case, let's get rid of his closest ally first." Masato said.
Just as Masarashi and Yamamoto Kansuke were discussing Higo's next strategy, the council hall of the Kagogi House in Higo Kunita Prefecture was now full of sighs.
At the head was an old man, with a round face with sorrow and a short mustache like thorns, and a high nose but not too big eyes. The hair is sparse, but the skin is white. This person is the governor of the Luzimu family. A member of the Kakoki family in his sixties. At the beginning, with his bravery, the Luzimu family created a world for the Luzimu family in the fat queen of the wealthy family. At this time, he had already passed the time of youth and vigor, his temples were now white, his waist was fat, his movements were slow, the pain could not be driven away, his body was no longer flexible, he could not even ride a horse, so he had to sit in a sedan chair.
The second seat is none other than Kagogi Town, who had just escaped from Kenshida Castle yesterday. Yesterday, he almost died under the knife of the general of the Otomo family, Ichimanda Qinshi, but fortunately, it was at this time that the army of the Luo family appeared, so that he was able to pick up a life from the ghost gate. But there were still a lot of colors hanging on his body, and he was sitting there dressed like a mummy.
After there is a town in Kagogi, it is the son of Kagogi and his grandson Kagogi. Thinking that Luzimu, who was nearly forty years old, was still addicted to wine at this time, the Luzimu relatives were angry. Fortunately, there is also a grandson who is angry. Since childhood, the Kako Wood Inspector has shown his extraordinary intelligence, and even won the appreciation of Otomo Yoshikan, who gave one of the "characters" in his name to the Kako Wood Inspector. In addition to the Luzimu Qinjun and the Luzimu connoisseurs, at this time, the council hall also gathered some wealthy families and retainers who were close to the Luzimu family. At this time, everyone's faces revealed a trace of bitterness.
Glancing at the expressions of everyone in the council hall again, Lu Zimu's relatives couldn't help but sigh secretly.
He understands the current situation, and his fate may fall inexorably like a maple leaf in autumn. Although he is old, he still doesn't want to die, he still wants to eat and drink spicy food, and he still wants to play with the little girl, and the name of the Luzi family can't disappear from his hands, but the current situation doesn't mean that he can live if he wants to.
While the member of the Kagogi family was pondering, the others in the council hall all looked at him. The Luzimu family members are now the backbone of the Luzimu Pavilion, and they are also the backbone of the Luzimu family, but they have just heard the words of the Luzimu Town that experienced yesterday's battle, and know that when the Luo family army is about to enter the city, if the Luzimu family proposes to go out of the city and fight with the Luo family at this time, they will definitely not agree, who wants to die, but defending the city, where can they defend it?!
As for whether they can hold on or not, the people in the council hall don't have much confidence anymore. Even the meaning in their hearts is very clear, that is, let Lu Zimu's relatives send people out of the city to negotiate peace with the Luo family on behalf of everyone, it is best to keep their territory safe, as long as their lives and territory are safe, they will not pay attention to any loyalty or not.
Of course, Luzimu's relatives understood the thoughts of these guys, but let him surrender like this, he seemed to be a little unwilling in his heart, who knows what kind of result awaits them after Lu Dao surrenders. Even if the Luo family made enough promises, they had already sent someone to secretly investigate the fate of those relatives of the Luo family who surrendered to the Luo family's wealthy family in nearby Kikuchi County, but they were worried in their hearts. Because once they surrender, the Kagoko family is likely to be forcibly transferred or even reduced like those wealthy families in Kikuchi County.
It's just that if you don't surrender, it's likely that you will be killed!
What is now in front of Luzimu's relatives is a choice between life and death. (To be continued......)
