Chapter 683: Tangled Ishida Aido (Three Watches!) )
Brain-dead!
This is the evaluation given by Zhao Hongyu.
The guy called Kogoro that Kizo said was a brainless existence in Zhao Hongyu's eyes.
However, it is precisely because of Xiao Goro's brain-dead that the Iga people have the upper hand, and Zhao Hongyu still has to thank Xiao Goro for his brain-dead.
At the same time, for the love-hate relationship between Kogoro and Amber, as well as the ugly new soldier, Zhao Hongyu said that it was a bit like a soap opera at nine o'clock in the time and space of the later generations.
Dog blood! The sacrifice between men and women, as well as love rivals and conflicts, if the directors of later generations knew about it, they would definitely write a shocking and bloody drama at one time.
Not to mention anything else, Hattori Chizuru, who was beside Zhao Hongyu, widened his eyes after hearing about this, and he looked very surprised.
Of course, in addition to being surprised, Hattori Chizuru is more of a gossip.
Although Hattori Chizuru is also a ninja, she is still a woman after all.
As long as she is a woman, then she will have a natural curiosity and inquisitive heart for gossip.
This, Hattori Chizuru is no exception.
It's just that in front of Hattori Chizuru, in front of Hattori Onizo, it's not good to ask too much about these things that have aroused her gossip, so she can only slowly suppress the flame of this gossip in her heart.
Looking at Hattori Chizuru's expression, Zhao Hongyu secretly felt funny.
"What did the intelligence say, did that Kogoro reveal any useful information?"
Zhao Hongyu is different from Hattori Chizuru, what he cares about is what useful information he got from Kogoro's mouth.
After all, the crusaders were about to arrive on the outskirts of the camp, and he had to know what news about the Koga ninjas who appeared before the crusaders.
Compared with the crusading army, these ninjas with special abilities and elusive are what Zhao Hongyu cares about the most.
Crusading armies can defeat them on the frontal battlefield.
But for which Iga ninjas. Frontal battlefields will not make a difference.
Although he has Iga by his side, Zhao Hongyu still doesn't feel very safe.
Of course, it would be best if this so-called 'Iga Ten' could be solved, because only the dead could make Zhao Hongyu feel at ease.
Seeing Zhao Hongyu asking about this, Hattori Kizo hurriedly said: "Very useful news, according to that Kogoro's account, the guy who led the team this time took the other seven remaining people to find the crusading army and contact them." The leader of Koga has no intention of infiltrating our camp right now and attacking us. ”
Kogoro can't stand the methods of these people in Iga. So these things are all figured out.
For this, Zhao Hongyu didn't feel anything strange.
If you don't even have the means to do this, then Iga and these people are too dish.
"Oh, it's a good thing not to attack our camp. But what is the purpose of them going to contact those crusaders? ”
Zhao Hongyu said that it was very strange about this.
Hattori Kizo heard this and replied, "According to that Kogoro, these people contacted the crusading army. May come back with the Raiders. Then, when the crusaders attack us, take advantage of the chaos to inflict casualties on us. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu narrowed his eyes, and his expression became solemn.
I want to follow the crusaders. When they attack, will they take advantage of the chaos to inflict casualties on our troops?
Well, this matter has to be taken seriously.
For this matter, Zhao Hongyu knew the danger.
Very simple. If these people from Koga attacked those generals on the battlefield, it would be quite harmful to the war.
One is not good. Total annihilation is not impossible.
"Your Highness is worried about this?"
Seeing Zhao Hongyu's uncertain expression, Hattori Hidezo thought about it for a while, and guessed what Zhao Hongyu was worried about.
Zhao Hongyu nodded: "Yes, I'm worried that they will be mixed in the enemy's army and will bring us a lot of trouble." ”
Hattori Kizo smiled: "Could it be that they know that Lu Dao does this, so we don't know that Lu Dao does this." We may be doing better than they do to govern others in the way of others. ”
Hattori's words made Zhao Hongyu's eyes light up.
No, they'll do it, but they can do the same thing.
No, it's even better than them.
Besides, the genetic people are not comparable to ordinary Japanese people, even if the general is killed, there will naturally be other people in the genetic people to take the place of that position to continue to command.
At this point, Zhao Hongyu's troops have an advantage.
But on the other hand, the Japanese army is not good.
If both sides really use such means, then Zhao Hongyu believes that it must not be his own troops that are in chaos.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongyu nodded: "Yes, we can do the same." Then it's up to you. ”
Hattori Hidezo let out a 'oh' and agreed.
"I'm really strange, why would these people in Koga let my camp go?"
Zhao Hongyu was a little curious about this.
Hattori Kizo replied, "We also asked the man named Kogoro about this question, and his answer was like this. Then Hattori Onizo relayed Kogoro's words to Zhao Hongyu.
According to Kogoro, the purpose of their coming to the Osaka area this time was actually not for Zhao Hongyu and them at all.
Rather, it was aimed at the Iga people who had been discovered earlier.
In other words, the target of these Koga-ryu people is Hattori Onizo and Tokugawa Kayo.
Therefore, there is no interest in Zhao Hongyu at all.
It's just that what these people didn't expect was that the Iga people actually took refuge in Zhao Hongyu.
Otherwise, how could they have spared the camp.
And the reason why they went to the side of the crusading army was to search for the Iga people along the way to see if they had fled in that direction.
By the way, contact the crusaders, and then help the crusaders.
Zhao Hongyu's side is less than 1,000 people, but the crusading army is almost 10,000 horses.
When the time comes, the two armies will face each other, and it will not be long before the battle will be over.
So. Help, it's not too much of a problem.
After the problem is solved, they will continue to track down the people of Iga.
That's what those Koga ninjas think, and that's what their leader, Goda, thinks.
After Zhao Hongyu listened to the narration of the belly ghost, he nodded silently.
"I see, then I know." , Zhao Hongyu knew the cause and effect, and couldn't help but sigh that his luck was good. Otherwise, if these Koga ninjas knew that the Iga people were here, their camp would not be peaceful.
"Your Highness. When the crusade comes, we'll protect you. Rest assured, we'll take care of everything. ”
Hattori Ghost Hide said that if the crusading army arrived at the periphery to set up a formation, those Koga ninjas would definitely target Zhao Hongyu as well.
Therefore, they must protect Zhao Hongyu's safety.
Now they have a relatively large advantage in numbers, so the loose manpower can protect Zhao Hongyu.
When you get rid of those Koga ninjas, you don't have to worry about it anymore.
Besides, now for their situation. Those Koga ninjas don't know at all. That is, this is an extremely favorable situation for them.
One side is in the light, and the other side is in the dark.
If it suddenly erupts, it can be done in a short period of time. Kill most of Koga's strength.
These Koga ninjas, although they are powerful, they don't have much actual combat experience.
With this to make a surprise attack, you will definitely have a good harvest.
Until that time. Even if the Koga people want to turn the tables, it will be impossible.
Frontal battles, Iga these people may not be useful. But when it comes to dark warfare...... Hehe, that's what they're good at.
Zhao Hongyu nodded at Hattori Onizo, and agreed to his arrangement.
"Hasn't the sentinel who sent out the sentry haven't returned? I wonder where the Lu Dao Raiders have been. ”
Zhao Hongyu asked.
"Your Highness, the Sentinels haven't returned to camp yet, but judging by the time, those crusaders should not be far from us."
Zhao Hongyu stood up, and Chizuru Hattori beside him also stood up.
"Order, the whole army is on alert, and at the same time go out of the camp and line up!"
"Hey!" ——
Dividing Line –
Osaka Castle, the residence of Ishida Aido.
At this time, in front of Ishida Aido, a guy who claimed to be a messenger of the crusading army came.
Ishida had been in fear in Osaka Castle for a few days, and he had been fearing that the foreigners would take advantage of the defeat of him to attack Osaka Castle.
However, after waiting for so many days, the foreigners still did not come to attack the place, as he feared.
This relieved Ishida a lot.
However, he was always worried.
Just because foreigners don't come now doesn't mean they won't come in the future.
Therefore, the timid Ishida Aido closed the gates all day and hid in Osaka Castle.
It seems that only by hiding in Osaka Castle can he feel safe.
However, these days have made him a little tired, because I don't know who is distributing a lot of leaflets in Osaka Castle.
The contents of those leaflets were, according to the words of later generations, very 'reactionary' and very filthy.
In the description of that flyer, he became a little sorcerer, playing chrysanthemums with some of the generals of Osaka Castle every day, and he was wheeled by these generals.
There are many more descriptions like this.
And, on the leaflets, there are also the names of some people.
Home address
With all this, the content on the flyer is considered by many to be true.
If it's not true, then those people have water in their brains, and they still leave their addresses and names to guarantee it.
Bastard!
Ah, these bastards!
Where am I so unbearable, I can't be a small sufferer.
If you really want to say that I play chrysanthemums, I have some, but it's just a small surname.
How could it be possible to play with those generals and dedicate their own chrysanthemums.
It's just nonsense!
What nonsense!
As Ishida Aido, of course, he was very angry about this.
But what if he was angry, he had no way to find the people at the flyer's address and punish them.
He was very worried about what he would be attacked after he left Osaka Castle.
I wonder if the enemy is trying to use these flyers to lure himself out of Osaka Castle.
You must hold back yourself.
However, just when Ishida was tired of doing so, a messenger from the crusading army came to Osaka Castle.
How could a crusader have a messenger here?
This has to mention Takahashi, who is 'cross-eyed'.
You have to know that Takahashi has always looked down on Ishida Hedao, and because he had some conflicts with Ishida Hedao when he was a child, he has always hated him.
This time, Takahashi was very happy when he heard that Ishida Aido had been defeated by some foreigners.
Because, I finally have something to make fun of Ishida Aido.
In this matter, he Takahashi has to laugh at Ishida Aido for the rest of his life.
Especially this time, he was appointed as the commander of the crusade army, and he led 10,000 men to crusade against 1,000 foreigners, and it was a sure victory to see it.
So, how could Takahashi not show off Ishida Aido.
Besides, after a day and a night of traveling, Takahashi's Danma soldiers were exhausted.
Seeing it, it must be a big reduction in combat effectiveness.
Therefore, Ishida Aido came up with an idea, that is, to recruit a group of men from Osaka Castle in the name of the commander, of course, it would be best if Ishida Aido was the leader.
Because in this way, Ishida Aido will definitely come to the crusade against the army in person, and he will be dispatched by himself.
When the time comes, in addition to making fun of and insulting him, he can also assign Ishida to charge or something.
If Ishida Aido was unlucky and died on the battlefield, wouldn't it be his wish.
Well, that's a good thing to kill with one stone.
So, thinking of a bad move, Takahashi sent an envoy to Osaka Castle.
Besides, there is another reason for Takahashi's consideration.
That is, if Osaka Castle also sends troops, then the military appearance of the crusading army will be even more prosperous.
Wouldn't it be more certain to defeat those foreigners when the time comes?
At that time, the battle exploits will be their own, but it will be Ishida Aido who will suffer.
Looking at the messenger in front of him, Ishida did not have the slightest smile on his face.
"Takahashi sent you?"
Ishida asked.
"Yes, my lord, Takahashi-sama sent a villain to meet my lord, and asked my lord to send troops to gather in xx place and deal with those foreigners together."
Of course, the messenger did not understand the reason for this, and he was only responsible for delivering some messages.
Didn't this guy Takahashi hate me all along?
Would he be so kind as to let me send troops to deal with those foreigners?
No, there must be something wrong with this.
Ishida Aido is not a fool either, he knows Takahashi's cautious personality, so he guessed that there must be another reason for this.
However, Takahashi is now the commander of the crusading army, and it is said that he has the right to temporarily recruit some local daimyo soldiers, so he can't refuse himself.
What can I do?
Ishida was in a tangle...... (To be continued......)
