Shichiri Noizhou looked around, and his pupils shrank. Something was wrong. It turned out to be Yorinobu Haoki, the Lord of Matsuno City.
Songren City is a strategic location in Minami Kaga, and Haomu Yorinobu has a lot of prestige among the people. If she dares to take the lead, she must have someone to rely on.
More importantly, she must have collected gold from the Nagao family.
Hoki Yorinobu has a very high status in Minami Kaga. Without her nod, Nagao Kagetora would not be able to pass.
Qili Laizhou said coldly.
"why are you laughing."
Haomu Yorinobu said without fear of looking at her.
"Your news is delayed. I just received news from the past few days. The Dharma Master has a decree for you, so I will bring it together this time."
The ominous premonition in Qili Laizhou's heart became even stronger, and he managed to calm down his emotions and said in a deep voice.
"Please give me the decree."
"By the order of the Dharma Master, Kagami Ichikazu is launching the Ichigo Ichikui to expand externally."
She stood up suddenly and scolded.
"Impossible! The Master would never issue such an order!"
Haomu Yorinobu said leisurely.
“Indeed, those who prove to be the master cannot do it, but those who appear to be the master can.
It is proved that the master is already sitting on the Hua Benshan Mountain, and the master appears to have succeeded to the throne of Hongan Temple. "
Qili Laizhou turned pale and said through gritted teeth.
"What else does the decree say?"
Haomu Yorinobu glanced at her with mockery in his eyes.
"Motoyama asked the boss of the boss, Shimo Yorijun, to come to Oyama Gobo and take control of Kaga.
You will serve as General Kaga and lead us to set off the Hokuriku Highway. "
Qili Laizhou's face turned red. This was such a humiliation.
Honganji Mianru did not deprive her of her rights in Kaga, but forced her to change her ways.
She has been suppressing the pioneering spirit of these people, and now the new Dharma Master wants her to take these bastards to go to war.
So insulting!
She looked uncertain, but finally gritted her teeth and endured it.
Nanari Raishu, who came from a humble background and relied solely on his own abilities, cherishes his current status very much.
Master Zhengru has passed away, and she has no backing. If she offends Master Zhengru, she may fall from the clouds into the abyss in an instant.
Not to mention power, life can't be saved.
Over the years, in order to suppress the ambitions of the public, she has killed so many people and caused so many troubles.
If you step down now, your whole family will die tomorrow!
She had to reluctantly nod and said.
"Give me the decree and I will take it."
Qili Laizhou is such a bachelor, Hao Mu Lai is disappointed in his confidence, and secretly curses himself for not making a decisive decision.
If she had just one more question, the leaders of the group who had contacted her would rise up and kill her together.
This guy was flexible and flexible, so she had no choice but to watch the opportunity fleeting and give up.
Qili Laizhou saw the disappointment in her eyes, and felt something in his heart.
Secretly vigilant, he said.
"The entire territory of Kaga is sealed off. We will wait until the next boss arrives. Everyone will go back and prepare for spring plowing."
Hoki Yorinobu cheered along with everyone, thinking that Terutora Uesugi had already passed Matsuno Castle. She had taken the money and done the work. What happened after that had nothing to do with her.
The Takeda family did send gold, but they just asked Kaga Country to block it, leaving Nagao Kagetora with no way to retreat.
Nowadays, Qili Laizhou's decision to seal the country is his own. Hao Mu Laixin doesn't need to do anything, and he can happily accept the heavy gifts. It's really a good deal.
She was secretly happy in her heart, but she didn't realize that Qili Laizhou glanced at her neck seemingly unintentionally, and it was bone-chilling.

After immersed in traveling for several days, Yoshihiro and his party took a break at the Uesugi family's supply point along the way before setting off again. Finally, they crossed the Ryobai Mountains and entered the Ezhong territory.
At this time, the villages and cities passing by were under martial law, which made the team's supplies in the castle town a lot of trouble.
Naoe Kanetsugu, who came back from inquiring about Shang Town, reported to the two family governors with a solemn face.
"The Yixiang Sect is organizing a blockade, and I am afraid that we will no longer be able to obtain supplies from the castle town."
Uesugi Teruhu asked in a deep voice.
"What happened to Yuezhong Yixiang Zong?"
"It is said that the order came from the Kaga Oyama Imperial Palace, but the details are not yet clear.
Yuezhong Yixiangzong is far more respectful and respectful to Benshan than Kaga Yixiangzong, and I am afraid that there will be big moves after spring plowing. "
Shangshang Huihu said calmly.
"Let's set off immediately and hurry back to Kasugayama Castle."
In the past, the group was concerned about their power and could only travel thirty or forty miles a day.
War horses seem to run fast, but in fact, their endurance after carrying people is far less than walking, and long distances are actually not as fast as people walking.
The group of people was riding one person and one person, and the luggage was quite heavy. In order to cherish the horses, they walked slower.
Now that the situation is unstable, we have no choice but to consume horsepower and return to Echigo territory first.
Naoe Kanetsugu looked ugly, and glanced at Yoshigan secretly, which made Yoshigan's heart skip a beat, fearing that there might be trouble behind him.
Sure enough, she said.
"All the businesses in Fufu County's homes have been removed. The Shenbo family is searching for caravans. It seems... they are looking for us."
Teru Uesugi asked, his heart sinking.
"The Chief God Protector knew about me going to Luo? Who leaked it to her?
Kyoto? Or Echigo? "
Naoe Kanetsugu shook his head.
"I don't know, the merchants at home in Fufu County came to wait for the news. Now I only know that there is no foothold on the way forward, and the news from Echigo has been cut off."
Uesugi Teruhu also remained silent.
After returning to Vietnam, traveling from west to east, we have to pass through Tonami County, Fufu County and Xinchuan County.
Tonami County is occupied by two temples, the Etsuchu Ichigo Sect. To the east of the Yamada River is the Zuisen Temple Territory and to the west is the Anyang Temple Territory.
Fufu County was the territory of the Jimbo family, and even crossed the border of the Kamtsu River and built Toyama Castle to invade the Shiina family of Shinkawa County.
The Jinbo family Shiina family were two of the three guardian dynasties originally established by the Hatakeyama family in Echu. Each occupied a county and attacked each other.
The originally powerful Jinbo Nagasaki was defeated by the Echigo reinforcements invited by Shiina Yasuin, and he hated Uesugi Teruhora deeply.
No matter where she got the news, it wouldn't make it easy for Uesugi Teruhu.
The Nagao family defeated the superiors from below, and their foothold in Echigo was unstable.
After killing Terutora Uesugi, there would be civil strife in Echigo, and she would have no time to come to Echu to cause trouble again. Only then would she be able to put an end to her worries.
In front of them, the chief minister of the gods is blocking the way, and behind them, Kaga Yixiangzong has sealed the country. The martial law of the Yixiangzong in Yuezhong is becoming more and more severe, and it is difficult to stay. The group is caught in a dilemma.
Uesugi Teruhu said to Shiba Yoshigan.
“Mr. Kenshin, you can go south to Hida Country to avoid it for now.
I have an old relationship with the Ema family of Hida Province. You are an envoy of the shogunate, and her family will definitely protect you.
After I return to Echigo, I will assemble my army and march into Echichu, and teach the chief minister of the gods a lesson, then I will come to pick you up. "
"no!"
Yiyin refused directly.
Just kidding, now that the two of them are united, they only have sixty elite warriors under their command.
After separation, Uesugi Teruhu will have only thirty people under his command.
If something goes wrong with the pass and Zhan fails in Yuezhong, he will be made an ugly figure by the system!
If that's the case, what's the point of coming to Kanto after he's gone through a lot of hardships and struggled to death!
Uesugi Teruhu didn't understand Yoshigan's thoughts. She just felt aggrieved and angry.
The trip to Guandong that she had planned before was supposed to be for her to show off her power, conquer the Guandong Plain, and then marry Bai Fumei and reach the pinnacle of her life.
But Sibo Yiyin's wretched growth, step by step, and absolutely no-nonsense layout made her restless.
This is not her script, and the result will never be the beauty she wants!
The exchange between the two in Tsuruga Castle a few days ago had already disappointed her.
Now that the situation was critical, her mind was in confusion, and Shiba Yiyin was unwilling to obey the arrangement, and the string in her heart suddenly broke.
In her impatience, she said angrily.
"Can't you just listen to my arrangements?"
Yiyin responded to her not to be outdone.
"I am the envoy of the shogunate and the governor of the Shiba family. Why should I listen to your arrangements?"
The two refused to give in to each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
