The Kyogoku family's troops suddenly arrived, which shocked Masakune Yoshimi and others in Gozeyama Castle.
Seeing the more than 20,000 troops that had been deployed outside Goze Mountain Castle, Masakune Yoshimi and Tomomi Muto also felt the pressure.
But looking at the Goze Mountain Castle under their feet, the two of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Such a fortified city is indeed very safe!
"My lord, the Kyogoku family's troops are plundering the castle town together with the Kuriya family. There are also Kyogoku family Ashigaru setting fires everywhere at Obama Port!" While the two were observing the Kyogoku family's troops, a man The samurai strode up to Tomomi Muto and spoke to report.
Tomoyoshi Muto smiled disdainfully, "Although Omi is big, it is not rich! How can those country bumpkins sit still when they see our wealthy castle town and Kohama Port in Gozeyama Castle?"
"Grab it, let them snatch it! They are useless things after all!" Yijian Changjing also said with a sneer.
Anyway, these things belong to Takeda Nobutoyo, and he doesn't care about them even if they are burned completely.
"Looking at the situation, the Kyogoku family will not be attacking the city in the next few days, so we can breathe a sigh of relief!" Although Takeda Gendo was a little angry, he had nothing to do. If he couldn't fight when he went out, he could only watch helplessly. Watching the Kyogoku family dominate the castle town.
However, for the Takeda family, as long as the Kyogoku family does not attack the city, it is good news. This battle can be delayed as long as possible.
Because once the Kyogoku family begins to attack the city, casualties are inevitable.
Even if it is not difficult to defend the city, if the casualties are incurred, it will be a heavy blow to the Takeda family!
Itumi Masakune, Muto Yuki and others deployed all the troops of the Takeda family on the outermost side of the city, and placed their own troops on the Honmaru and Ninomaru. This was done without the help of Kyogoku. Come home to consume the strength of the Takeda family.
Takeda Gendo also saw these things, and he knew the plans of Muto Tomoe and others.
The situation was just as Muto Tomomi and others had guessed. The Kyogoku family's ashigaru seemed to be obsessed with plundering the castle town, and had no idea about the nearby Goze Mountain Castle. Two hours passed, and the Kyogoku family The Ashigaru people were making trouble in the castle town and Obama Port.
Even standing on the top of Gozeyama Castle, Muto Tomomi and others could clearly see the Ashigaru members of the Kyogoku family moving piles of things from the castle town outside.
And at this rate, the Kyogoku family will not even think about evacuating the castle town and Obama Port within three days.
After hearing the report from Muto Tomoe and others, Takeda Nobuyo's heart was bleeding.
The castle town and Obama Port of Gozeyama Castle were accumulated by the Takeda family for many years. Just watching the Kyogoku family evacuate the castle town, Takeda Nobuntoyo felt like needles pricking his heart, and it was extremely uncomfortable.
"The Kyogoku family is really hateful. I want to go out of the city to fight to the death with Kyogoku Takamasa!" Takeda Nobuntoyo suddenly suffered from a stroke, and he wanted to go out of the city to fight Kyogoku Takamasa.
Frightened, Muto Yuki and others quickly pulled Takeda Nobutoyo, "My lord, please don't be anxious. This is the Kyogoku family's strategy to force our army to leave the city to fight together! If my lord really leaves the city, the Kyogoku family will be harmed." count!"
"It's a pity that Gozeyama Castle and Kohama Port were plundered, but in order to defend Gozeyama Castle, all the losses are worth it!"
"As long as Goze Mountain Castle is not lost and the Kyogoku family withdraws their troops, everything can still be restored!"
Regarding this point, it’s really not Masakune Yoshimi and Tomasuke Muto NB.
Wakasa's unique geographical location makes it easy to develop business. It only took a few years for the Takeda family to build Gozeyama Castle. In just a few years, the castle town of Gozeyama Castle was developed to such prosperity. Even if everything was destroyed, it would be easy to restore it to the original state as long as they worked hard in the future.
Takeda Nobunto was just excited for a moment, and stopped BBing after he calmed down.
Just kidding, for a coward like Nobuto Takeda, even if you put a knife on his neck, he wouldn't have the guts to go out and fight Kyogoku Takamasa.
He couldn't even defeat Kuriya Mototaka, let alone Kyogoku Takamasa in the region.
"Let's keep this account in mind for now. I will definitely settle it with the Kyogoku family in the future!" With no other choice, Takeda Nobuntoyo could only leave a harsh word and then left the palace.
Takeda Nobutoyo's eldest son Hikojiro (Takeda Yoshitomi) has been ill in the past few days, and Takeda Nobutoyo has focused all his energy on his son.
As for defending the city, he had long since ignored it.
"The sky has darkened. Uenosuke should go back and rest first. I will be on duty tonight!" After walking out of the palace and looking up at the sky, Masakune suggested.
Tomomi Muto is not pretentious either, and the two of them have a tacit understanding about this.
"Suruga Mamoru, please take care of me, I'll leave everything to you!"
........
At night, the moon and stars are sparse in the sky. It is already autumn and the weather is exceptionally cool.
Standing at the top of the city enjoying the cool breeze, Yijian Changjing felt very calm.
Just as he was about to call Xiao Xing to have a drink with him, Yijian Changjing suddenly saw a firelight in the city.
"What's going on there?"
"Why did the fire happen? Find out the cause quickly!"
"ha!"
Not long after, a samurai came to Masakune Yoshimi, "My lord, it was the warehouse where grain was stored in Ninomaru that caught fire!"
"Why did the warehouse catch fire?"
"Did you notice anything unusual?"
"There is nothing abnormal. Ninomaru has been completely sealed off. Now our Ashigaru is in emergency firefighting!"
"Asshole!" Yijian Changjing threw the wine plate to the ground, "You guys are watching here, I will go personally to direct the fire fighting!"
"ha!"
The reason why the Takeda family is confident in guarding Gozeyama Castle is that the food reserves of Gozeyama Castle are very sufficient, which can feed and drink the defenders in the city for more than a year.
At this moment, the warehouse was on fire. If the food suffered heavy casualties, it was still a question whether Gozeyama Castle could be defended, so Yoshimi Masakune had to be cautious.
At this moment, in Dongqulun, Yamagata Shengxin also saw the raging fire burning in Ninomaru.
"It seems that Inuhachiro has succeeded!"
He waved his hand and called a nearby man. Yamagata Shengnobu said in his ear, "Hurry to Otemon and see if Isimi Suruga Mamoru is still there!"
"My lord, I just saw Ichimi Suruga Mamoru leading a team of ashigaru to Ninomaru!"
"Who is guarding Otemon now?"
"There are only a few samurai from the Yoshimi clan and a group of Ashigaru!" Sidekami quickly replied.
Shanxian Shengxin smiled slightly and said, "Give me the order, everyone will march towards Otou Gate immediately, and be sure to capture Otou Gate in the shortest possible time!"
"ha!"
As soon as Shanxian Shengxin's order was conveyed, several warriors from the Shanxian family immediately found Shanxian Shengxin.
"My lord, was it you who gave the order to attack Otoumen?"
Shanxian Shengxin nodded and admitted unabashedly: "Not bad!"
"Has my lord betrayed my family?"
"I will never agree to this move!" A warrior stated his attitude directly!
Shanxian Shengxin was just a son-in-law and an adopted son, and he had no close confidants at home. These warriors were also the original samurai of the Shanxian family. At this moment, seeing Shan County Sheng Xin making such a rebellious move, he would naturally not agree to it.
rub!
Phew!
A huge head suddenly rolled on the ground.
Shanxian Shengxin held the bloody sword in his hand, looked at the remaining two warriors with a ferocious expression and said: "I am the head of the Shanxian family, do you have to disobey my order?"
"Don't dare!"
"I will obey my lord's order!" The remaining two warriors were shocked by Shanxian Shengxin's sudden hand. They looked at the headless corpse still gushing blood and said decisively.
Slowly putting the sword into its sheath, Yamagata Shengxin waved his hand, "Tonight, the enemy is in Gozeyama Castle!"
"Kill me!"
