Naomasa Ii looked at Shiba Yoshiyin blankly and shook his head.
"Otaisuo, I don't understand."
Yiyin smiled bitterly and said.
“You don’t understand, and neither will the Kamao clan.
You don’t understand what is the comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, body, art and labor, what is the outlook on life, morality and values.
The education you have received since childhood is that family name comes first and family property is the most important. "
Yoshigami glanced at Kamaojigo and Ii Naomasa. They tried hard to understand their master's meaning, but their eyes were full of confusion and they smiled bitterly.
In this world, everything Yiyin insists on is always a wink for the blind.
No one can truly understand him. Just like the historical articles written five hundred years ago, it is difficult for modern people to understand the persistence of ancient people.
he sighed.
"You don't need to understand, maybe this is my moral principle."
Hearing the word "giri", the Ji warriors present nodded silently. At least they could understand this word.
Although their righteousness is not the same thing as Yoshigan's so-called righteousness, at least they have a reason to convince themselves.
Yoshigan drank the warm water in one gulp, handed the bowl to Ii Naomasa, and said softly.
"Give me another bowl."
"Hi!"
While Ii Naomasa was carefully filling the water, Yoshigami said to Kamao Ujigo next to him.
"Hime Kamamao, go and call Lord Kawada Nagauchi and the others. I have something to say."
"Hi!"
Kamojigo stood up and walked out, suddenly stopped for a moment, turned around and bowed to Yoshigami.
"Otai Suo, although I don't understand what your moral principles are.
But I will always stand by your side and work with you to uphold your principles until death. "
After saying that, she walked out quickly.
Yiyin was stunned for a moment, then laughed again. This kid is also an idiot.
When the people from Kamao Clan came back, the Shiba Yoshigan in front of them had transformed back into the majestic Odaisuo, Shiba Kenshin.
After a group of Ji warriors bowed respectfully, Yiyin motioned for them to sit cross-legged on the ground, and then said.
"I have made up my mind. I will choose 20 Ji warriors from each tribe, one person and three horses, to gather all military supplies and follow me out of the mountains to break out of the encirclement.
The rest of the group followed Mr. Ema Huisheng to Hida Country to borrow a way back to Shinkawa County. "
The Hime warriors headed by Kawada Nagauchi were stunned for a moment, and then fell silent, pondering what Shiba Yoshigan meant.
Shiba Yiyin explained.
"It's a critical moment for Echu's deployment. Ichibuki's offensive has collapsed. All we have to do is wait for the arrival of Uesugi Jinho's coalition forces to subdue Ichibuki's rebellion.
I can't leave at this time, I have to go back to the old territory of Shenbao. Cooperate with His Highness Uesugi and His Highness Jinbo to deal with the aftermath to prevent unforeseen consequences.
However, the war horses were in short supply, and so many people were not needed to break out and return, so we simply divided our troops and went back. "
Kawada Nagahime bowed and asked.
"Otaisuo, how should the specific personnel be allocated?"
"Brothers from the Pusheng clan will bring five fellows to accompany me, and you can nominate the rest."
Kawada Nagauchi looked back and said decisively.
"Yoshie Ziken, I, Osaka Nagami, and our elite troops will follow the actions of the imperial commander."
Yamamotoji Takacho also bowed.
"I will take the elite members of my family and act together with the imperial office."
Uesugi Teruhora is about to arrive, and it is impossible for anyone from the Omi faction or the Yamamotoji family to withdraw at this time, making these days of hard work in vain.
A person who has traveled a hundred miles is only half a century old, but he has persisted in ten days of bloody battles. Wouldn't it be a failure to run away at the last moment?
Warrior Ji serves the public with swords and guns, but she must also learn to show her face in front of her lord. There is no one more accomplished than the savior. They saved the Lord's sweetheart, so they are no worse than the savior, right?
This is a good time to show your face. Whether the reward after the war will be rich or not depends on the last fight.
Sibo Yiyin glanced at the ladies and said after seeing that their morale was high and their military morale was ready.
"Regulate your troops and gather your war horses and military supplies. Have a good night's rest and follow me out into battle tomorrow morning."
"Hey! Yutaisuo's military fortune is prosperous!"
"My concubines, may your military fortunes be prosperous."
Yiyin was a little tired, but he knew he couldn't rest. Jiang Ma Huisheng still needs to coordinate and make arrangements for Ji Ji, who borrowed the road to go back.
He glanced at Naomasa Ii who was silent on the side, especially this child, he had to make arrangements.
———
The next day, outside Lihe Village.
Yoshihiro Shiba looked at the Jiangma family's military strength heading north along the river, as well as Naomasa Ii and others who followed them, and was in a daze.
Jiang Ma Huisheng set off first with the army, followed by more than 60 people eliminated from the cavalry army, and a few war horses.
They will go out of the mountain first and attack the local Ichigo clan in Higashiyamami Village to attract the enemy's attention. Then go south along the Shogawa River and return to Hida Country.
And Shiba Yiyin will take the twenty remaining Ji warriors, one man and three horses, to break out to the west and circle back to the old territory of Jinbo.
It wasn't until the army disappeared from sight that Yiyin turned back and spoke to Zhu Ji.
"Let's go too."
"Hi!"
———
Higashinojiri Village.
Yoriteru Shimoma lives in a temple next to the village and waits patiently for his prey to take the bait. What she is most worried about now is that Shiba Yoshigan will go south along the Shogawa River to Hida Country.
Hida Kingdom is still controlled by the samurai family. Although the local samurai family has long been independent of the shogunate, they respect the direct descendants of the Genji family in Kawachi.
If Shiba Yiyin goes there, all the arrangements made by Shimo Yoriteru will be in vain. All parties in the Yixiang sect no longer bought her account and could no longer organize a new offensive to enter Shenbao's old territory.
She could only watch helplessly as the Uesugi Jinbo Allied Forces came to their senses and were about to retaliate against the Ezhong Ichikai clan but could do nothing.
For this reason, she could only take a gamble.
I bet that Yoshigan Shiba would not go deep into the mountains and take a road he was not familiar with to get to Hida Country. The mountain road is steep, and without local people to guide the way, there is a narrow escape from death.
———
Yoriteru Shimoma didn't know that Ema Terushiro had come to support him, nor did he know that Teru Uesugi's light cavalry had arrived at Masuyama Castle.
The defenders of Masuyama Castle were the remnants of Kaga Ichikazu's retreat.
Both the Yuezhong Zonghuan and the Shiina military forces in the Mitani area are alienated from them. Little did they know that they had been slaughtered and the city had changed hands.
Of course, Sibo Yiyin didn’t know either. So, he chose to take a detour.
Viewed from the sky above Tonami County.
At the entrance to the mountain in the upper reaches of Zhuangchuan River, two groups of troops sent troops out of the valley. One group shouted to fight and kill and headed north to Dongshanjian Village. A group of soldiers quietly moved eastward towards Inami Town.
In the Mitani area where Higashiyamami Village crosses the Shogawa River, Shiina's army is encountering a surprise attack from the north. Yamamotoji Sadada was determined to use Shiina Yasuin's head in exchange for his family's future.
Further north, outside Zengshan Castle on the east bank of Shochuan River, a cavalry army of nearly 600 people had crossed the river and advanced into Tonami County.
To the west of Shogawa and in Inami Town in the southwest, the Xiangzong army was always ready to resist the horse fence and block Yoshigan Shiba's road to the southwest.
In Higashinojiri Village in the northwest, Yoriteru Shimoma gathered the largest number of troops he could muster. Four thousand people set up pockets at Shiri Tarizaka, betting that Shiba Yiyin would come to attack.
If the sky had eyes, it would give a bird's eye view of the earth. It can be seen that the armies of all parties are getting closer and closer, some have already collided with each other, and some are about to spark.
