"My lord, the battlefield has been searched, and no escaped enemy soldiers have been found." A navy army came to report on it.

With Fulai Minao and Rufa Temple being killed separately, the remaining soldiers of the two coalition forces of Fulai and Tahara were either besieged or abandoned their weapons and surrendered. The Luo family immediately began to clean up the battlefield in an all-round way.

"What are you going to do with those captives?" After listening to the report of his subordinates, Wakabayashi Echigomori on the side asked.

"Leave those who are willing to surrender to their families and assist us in the next move, and those who are unwilling to surrender will be killed directly." Next, they will pretend to be the rout of the Tahara family to attack the Tahara family's Iizuka Castle, in order to avoid the delay of time and accidents, they can only be ruthless, so Murakami Takeshi made a decisive decision. Although Murakami Takeshi was only about twenty years old at this time, after several years of training in the Luo family, he had already grown into a qualified general.

"In that case, I can only hope that they can cooperate with me and wait." Wakabayashi Echigomori nodded and said. As a former retainer of the Otomo family, he saw a lot of familiar faces among those captives this time, so he was a little unbearable in his heart at this time.

"If you don't want to see them die for this, then the next thing to do is up to you. But you only have two quarters of an hour. In two quarters of an hour, we will clean up the battlefield and start moving as enemy soldiers. As for how many people can be saved, it depends on how these captives choose. Takeshi Murakami also seemed to know what Wakabayashi Echigomori was thinking, so he said.

"Thank you!" With Murakami's permission, Wakabayashi Echigo Mamoru felt much better. Then he went down and began to persuade the captives to surrender.

Looking at the figure of Wakabayashi Echigoshou leaving. Takeshi Murakami turned his head and glanced at Ahri on the side. The latter immediately understood, and immediately led two of his men to follow Wakabayashi Echigo to defend it. Murakami Buyoshi This is to let Ahri go to spy on Wakabayashi Echigo. Although Wakabayashi Echigomori also killed several enemy soldiers in this battle, he also showed considerable courage in the previous battles of the Luo family's naval army, which can be said to be a full surrender. It's just that the so-called defense of people is indispensable, and Murakami Takeshi doesn't want to go wrong at this critical time.

After Wakabayashi Echigomori and Ahri left, Murakami Takeyoshi immediately ordered: "There is Urataka!" ”

"In!"

"Immediately take someone to clean up the battlefield, hide all traces of the battle, and don't let anyone passing by here find out that there was a battle here."

"Yes!" Aripu Gao immediately took the order and left.

"Ujiu is pure, Utu Xingxing!"

"In!" Yu Jiu Chunding and Yu Tu Xingxing immediately responded.

"You and the two of you go down immediately, and each of them selects more than a hundred people from their own army. Dress up the enemy soldiers separately and disguise the dead enemy soldiers as seriously wounded, which they later use to infiltrate the enemy's fortress. ”

"Order!" After receiving the order, Uku Junding and Uto Xingxing also immediately went down to arrange tasks according to Murakami's requirements......

At noon, it was lunchtime, and the two Ashigaru who were standing guard at the Otemon Gate were leaning on the edge of the stone wall of Iizuka Castle in Tahara Home Castle and sighed, and one of them touched the belly of his back against his chest, and complained: "Why is it not time to eat, I am really starving, and I am vomiting yellow water." ”

The other ashigaru booed, "Don't complain, I heard it's for the relief of the homeless." There is not much food in the city, and the lord has been angry about this recently. ”

"Don't you even have food to eat?" Hear Ashigaru on the other side say this. The ashigaru who complained at the beginning said immediately.

"Hey, who knows? It is estimated that in order to save food, so that the territory can survive until next year's spring ploughing, I have to eat gruel recently. Come to think of it, when will such a day end? My mother-in-law is now digging wild vegetables all over the mountains with her children. ”

"My family is a little better, the old man went fishing."

"What? Fishing? Your old man is really not afraid of death. Since the family's navy was wiped out by the Luo family's navy, not many people dared to go to sea to fish. If your old man's fishing boat runs into the Luo family's sailors patrolling nearby, it will suffer. ”

"Hey! What else could it be? My old man said that he could only try his luck. If you really run into the Luo family's water army, it will be an old life at most, but if you are lucky enough to catch a few fish and come back, you will save several lives of the family! ”

Just when the two ashigaru kept complaining, a force rushed in the distance. When it was about to approach Iizuka Castle, this army of more than 200 people was divided into two, one army of more than 100 people continued to go straight to Iizuka Castle, while the other force of more than 100 people went directly around the city.

"Who?" When the group of troops who came straight to Iizuka Castle was still dozens of meters away from Iizuka Castle, the ashigaru people who defended the castle finally discovered them, so they hurriedly stopped.

"It's us, go and inform the city lord, we have encountered an ambush, and even the Lord of Rufa Temple has been seriously injured." In the face of the shouting of the defenders of the city, several soldiers walking in front of the army shouted with sad faces. They were scared to death at this time, because they were surrounded by several soldiers of the Luo family who would draw their knives and hack them to death at any time.

This army, which is approaching Iizuka Castle, is the army of the Luo family wearing the clothes of the soldiers of the Tahara family and waving the banner of the Tahara family. Led by Murakami Takeyoshi, Wakabayashi Echigomori, and Ariurataka, they carried some of the Tahara family captives who had surrendered to the Luo family, and carried the corpses of the Tahara family soldiers who were actually dead, pretending to be routs, in an attempt to infiltrate Iizuka Castle.

According to the plan formulated by everyone before, this time for the attack on Iizuka Castle, the army of the Luo family was divided into four troops, and the first part of the army was led by Murakami Takeyoshi, Wakabayashi Echigo Mamoru and Ariurataka, pretending to be the rout of the Tahara family and mixing into Iizuka Castle from the front.

The second part of the army is led by Ahri, Uku Junding, and Uto Xingxing, pretending to be the rout of the Fulai family, passing through Iizuka Castle, and then when passing through the rear gate of Iizuka Castle, after the sound of fighting in the city, quickly approached the back gate of Iizuka Castle, and while controlling the back door, the Luo family in the city entered the city with the assistance of the army. In this way, as long as the only two gates in the front and back of Iizuka Castle are controlled, the defenders in the city will become the turtle in the urn, and the news of their invasion of the local area will not be leaked in a short time.
