Beishin, Toishi Castle.
Toishi Castle was the gateway to Hokushin. It was defrauded by Yukitaka Sanada, so Takeda Harunobu was able to quickly capture the territory of Murakami Yoshikiyo.
After the Spring War, Sanada Yukitaka was generously rewarded.
Not only did they receive the Sanada ancestral land and the security certificate for Sanada Township, but they were also appointed to become the lord of Toishi Castle. The Sanada family became the number one samurai family among the Higashi believers under the Takeda family.
Yukitaka Sanada knew that Takeda Harunobu wanted to use the Umino bloodline of the Sanada family to win over the hearts of Toshin's Shino clan.
But even so, the reward was so great that the Sanada family was determined to work for the Takeda family.
During the Battle of Kawanakajima, Sanada Yukitaka led the Higashi Believers to accompany the army, and his daughter, Sanada Masayuki, led the important town of Toishi Castle.
The Sanada family has been in trouble for many years, and three generations of the family have been wise and cautious Hime samurai.
Masayuki Sanada lived in Toishi Castle, and his daughter Yukiyuki Sanada assisted him attentively, and the family business grew day by day.
Only the second daughter, Benmaru, who has not yet entered Yuanfu, goes crazy all day long and wanders around the mountains with a group of wild girls. She is often scolded by her mother Masayuki Sanada.
Benmaru came to the mountains outside the city and walked in the forest. Suddenly a stone hit her forehead, causing her to fly into a rage.
"who is it!"
When no one responded, she turned around to look for her, and another stone hit her on the back of her head.
"Sarutobi Sasuke!
It must be you bastard, get out of here! "
A figure jumped out from the dead leaves that were turning yellow in the autumn, and laughed at Benmaru, whose forehead was red from being hit by a stone.
Benmaru couldn't help but laugh too, then he suppressed his smile and pretended to be angry, and stepped forward to fight with his friend.
Sarutobi Sasuke is the daughter of a local scholar in the mountains. He studied martial arts with the reclusive Koga-ryu master Tozawa Hakuunsai since childhood.
Benmaru, however, was from a serious Hime Samurai family. The two of them got into a fight, and Sarutobi Sasuke could only beg for mercy.
"It hurts, it hurts, I know I was wrong. Let go Benmaru, my arm is going to be broken, it's going to be broken!"
Benmaru let go of Sarutobi Sasuke's hands that were being cut behind her back, kicked her on the butt, kicked her out, and smashed her head into the dead grass in front of her.
Sarutobi Sasuke shook his head, and just as he was about to stand up, a bird egg fell from the air and hit her face, splashing a thick yellow color on her face.
"Kirigakure Zaizo! Bastard!"
Just as Benmaru guessed the troublemaker immediately, Sarutobi Sasuke knew who was teasing him immediately.
She is a master of Koga-ryu. She can instantly see the opponent's position and point her anger at a thick branch.
The branch swayed three-thirds, a piece of bark fell off, and the camouflage cloth was rolled up in the girl's hand.
Kirigakure Saizo looked at Sarutobi Sasuke with a smile and said.
"I took out a few bird eggs and thought I would share them with you.
Who knew that Koga-ryu people couldn't even catch a bird egg? They were so weak. "
Sarutobi Sasuke stared at him angrily. This guy had no idea where he came from. He had only recently come to the Shinano Mountains.
With his excellent Iga-ryu ninjutsu, Benmaru was so addicted that he managed to sneak into their small circle.
Benmaru didn't care about Sarutobi Sasuke's depression, she waved to Kirigakure Saizo.
"There are bird eggs. Come down quickly and bake them for me. I haven't eaten yet and I'm already starving!"
Kirigakure Saizo jumped off the branch, handed the bird egg to Benmaru, and asked smoothly.
"How is that possible? You are the second daughter of the Sanada family. We can't starve you even if we starve to death."
Benmaru took the egg and hurriedly found flint to make a fire to bake the egg, complaining.
"It's not because Kawanakajima's logistics were cut off and the news was blocked, my mother took out her temper on me.
He said that I was not doing my job properly all day long and did not learn from my eldest sister to work seriously. He wanted to starve me to teach me a lesson. "
Benmaruno was used to speaking without restraint. Sarutobi Sasuke on the side was a little wary and looked at Kirigakure Saizo.
This man seems to have no desires, but he is always testing the Sanada family's affairs. It doesn't matter if it happens once or twice, but it always makes people uneasy after a long time.
Sanada Benmaru thought that Sarutobi Sasuke hid his displeasure with Kirigakure because of the ninjutsu dispute between the Koga and Iga families. He had always ignored Sarutobi Sasuke's advice.
Kirigakure Saizo said.
"Since you don't know the situation on the front line, why don't you send ninjas to check it out?
빨녕 bⅹшⅹС〇●С〇м 녕. The army set out, and the heavy supplies had to go through the Qianquchuan River. But if you bear the goodwill of others and travel through mountains and rivers, you can definitely go through the mountainous areas. "
Benmaru shrugged.
"Who knows, this is beyond my control."
Sarutobi Sasuke didn't like it, Kirigakure was trying every word, so she couldn't help but interrupt.
"Why are you asking these questions! Benmaru hasn't yet taken his full form, so how can he discuss family matters with her?
You, I'm afraid your efforts are in vain. Even if the Sanada family wanted to send someone to investigate, they would not tell a child! "
Before Kirigakure Saizo could speak, Benmaru got angry and cursed.
"I will be serving Yuan server next year! Don't treat me like a child!
Some of the Wu family went into battle when they were twelve or thirteen years old, and I was the one who suppressed them, otherwise I would have been defeated by Yuan Yuan!
Don't you just go to Kawanaka Island to check the situation? Why can't I do it?
Walk! After eating this bird's egg, we'll set off! I'll see for myself! "
Sarutobi Sasuke was stunned on the spot. She was mocking Kirigakure to hide her evil intentions. Why did she blow up Benmaru?
Little did she know that Benmaru was depressed.
The war on Kawanakajima took time away from Kai, and the Takeda family in both Shinano and Japan had subordinate military forces. If the army was out for a day, the Hime samurai who stayed behind would not feel at ease.
Tianma Masayuki has been in a bad mood these days, and Benmaru has suffered a lot.
She is just a wild girl who is not peaceful. She has many things to hold her accountable for and is scolded by her mother every day.
I'm hungry today and my temper is bad. Meeting Sarutobi Sasuke's words completely exploded the grievances he had been feeling these past few days.
When Benmaru's emotions aroused, he couldn't suppress them. He suddenly thought of doing something to show his mother that she was not a waste in the family!
Sasuke Sarutobi's head was pounding, and he began to persuade him in a low voice, while Kirigakure next to him hid his smile and remained silent.
She is a disciple of the Three Taifus of Momochi. She came to Kanto with the Shiba Army and entered Shinano Country to search for information.
I met Sanada Benmaru and Sarutobi Sasuke in the mountains and fields. The three of them were both in a girlish state of mind and became friends with each other.
Kirigakure Saizo did not deliberately approach Benmaru to collect information. As Sarutobi Sasuke said, what information can the children of the Sanada family in the original uniform have?
She had her own other channels to inquire about the military situation, and the way she talked to Benmaru was just a professional habit and something she did subconsciously.
Unexpectedly, Sasuke Sarutobi, with the sensitivity unique to ninjas, seemed to be aware of her identity, and this led to a misunderstanding.
The relationship between the three of them was linked to Sanada Benmaru. At this time, Benmaru wanted to go to Kawanakajima to visit, and the two of them could not stop her.
For the sake of their friend's life, the two ninjutsu masters had no choice but to let her go.
The area around Kawanaka Island is not peaceful.
The Uesugi family's Xuanyuan ninja and the Takeda family's Touha ninja investigate, test, lurk, and assassinate each other. The seemingly peaceful mountainous area is full of murderous intent.
In addition, a large number of starved mountain people formed a samurai hunt, moving around the edge of the battlefield. They watched the lone Hime warriors on both sides and attacked the ashigaru who escaped.
샷요 요. He thought about exchanging the belongings of the dead for supplies for the winter, and exchanging the heads for rewards from the enemy martial arts.
How dare they let Benmaru go into a place like this alone, so they had no choice but to follow.
