Under Goze Mountain Castle, in the Kyogoku family's main formation, Kyogoku's high-ranking general Kuriya Gentaka was invited over.
"Sakyo came into the palace and called me here late at night. What's the important matter?" Kuriya Mototaka said with a puzzled look on his face.
After plundering Gozeyama Castle's castle town all day today, Kuriya Mototaka was exhausted both physically and mentally. He originally planned to rest early and prepare to attack the city tomorrow. As a result, Kyogoku Takamasa called him over just as he lay down.
Kyogoku Takamasa smiled slightly, and then said slowly and mysteriously, "Ukyo Ryōden, didn't I say that it only takes one day to break Gozeyama Castle? And the day to break the city is now!"
"Oh?" Kuriya Mototaka quickly sat up straight, "I would like to hear the details!"
"To be honest, I have successfully instigated the rebellion of Yamagata Shimonosuke in Gozeyama Castle, and the other party has promised to open the Otemon Gate of Gozeyama Castle tonight! In order to ensure that the plan is foolproof, I have sent my capable ninja Yamaoka Inuhachiro to go there Thanks for your help, I believe there will be some movement soon!"
"What?"
"Sakyo entered the palace and actually instigated rebellion against Shimonosuke of Yama Prefecture? He is a member of the Takeda family!"
"How did Sakyo enter the palace?" Kuriya Gentaka couldn't believe his ears. If the person who spoke was not Kyogoku Takamasa, he would even think that someone was joking with him.
Of course Kyogoku Takamasa would not tell Kuriya Mototaka about his PY transaction with Yamagata Shixinnobu, otherwise what would happen if Kuriya Mototaka knew about it?
After all, Kuriya Gentaka rebelled with the intention of capturing Wakasa. And Kyogoku Takamasa is now playing another trick behind his back. Before everything settles, Kyogoku Takamasa will not reveal any information to him.
"There is no need to elaborate on the details of Shimonosuke's plan to rebel against Yama Prefecture. Ukyo Ryōden just needs to know the result!"
"If nothing else happens, chaos will break out in Gozeyama Castle soon! I have already sent a team of Ashigaru to respond, and a battle will soon break out at Otemon! By then, the entire army of Gozeyama Castle will be heading towards Otemon. If they gather everywhere, then the defense of the Shoumen will naturally be weak!"
"In the morning, I asked Ukyo Ryoudon to station his troops in the direction of Otote Gate with the troops in mind, taking into account the joint battle tonight! So I also ask Ukyo Ryodon to return to the main formation quickly and prepare the troops immediately. Once the battle at Otemon is over The battle has begun, command Ashigaru to attack the city immediately!"
"It's getting late, and I'm really not very good at night fighting!" Kuriya Gentaka said with a confused look on his face.
Kyogoku Takamasa raised his eyebrows, "If it's too dark, light more torches. This is the only chance to capture Gozeyama Castle. Do Ukyo Ryōden still want to miss it?"
"Don't worry when Sakyo enters the palace, I will definitely go all out!"
After saying that, Kuriya Mototaka hurriedly ran towards his home formation.
At this time, Uesaka Munanobu strode into the main formation and said excitedly, "Sakyo enters the palace, Gozeyama Castle is ablaze, and our plan begins!"
"good!"
Kyogoku Takamasa suddenly stood up excitedly and said loudly, "Send the order! The entire army begins to assemble!"
"Pay close attention to the movement of Gozeyama Castle Otemon. Once Yamagata Shimonosuke starts to take action, immediately attack the city!"
"ha!"
Many Kyogoku family warriors in the formation immediately stood up, each put on their headbands, and then left the formation to assemble their troops.
Gozeyama Castle, Takeda family, this time it’s real pills!
.......
On the upper floor of the Otemon Gate of Gozeyama Castle, Yamagata Shengnobu appeared in everyone's sight with his head held high, and then said loudly, "Yatsumi Kazuo is dead, and I, Yamagata Shimonosuke, have joined the Kyogoku family." , the Ashikaru of the Yoshimi family immediately put down their weapons and surrendered!"
"Otherwise, shoot to death!"
Seeing the sudden appearance of Yamagata Shengxin and the head in the hands of Yamagata Shengxin, the Ashikaru of the Yoshimi family suddenly exploded.
"What! Lord Yijian is dead!"
"How is that possible! Wasn't Lord Yijian still here just now?"
"It's the Shanxian family. The Shanxian family has rebelled!"
Ashikaru of the Yoshimi family looked at the head in the hands of Yamagata Shengxin, trembling all over.
At this time, they were completely helpless and had no idea what to do next!
Yijian Changjing is gone and Yijian Qingqing is dead. They have no backbone at all.
"kill!"
Seeing that the ashigaru present seemed unmoved, Yamagata Shengnobu immediately threw away the head of Yoshimi Kagome, then raised his arms and shouted.
The Yamagata ashigaru who had been prepared for a long time rushed out from both sides of the Otemon gate, knocking down some Yoshimi ashigaru who didn't react in time!
In fact, the Ashigaru members of the Yoshimi family were just frightened by the sudden bad news and had no time to react.
When I finally reacted at this time, it seemed too late to call for surrender, because the Ashigaru of the Yamagata family didn't care whether you surrendered or not. When you met the Ashikaru of the Yoshimi family, you would kill them one by one without any mercy.
These days, the 25th generation has to be treated thoroughly!
Although the Yoshijian family guards Otote Gate, not all their troops are deployed here. The entire Otote Gate only consists of two to three hundred peasant soldiers.
The Yamaxian family suddenly came out and dealt a fatal blow to the Yijian family in a short period of time. The Yijian family's troops at the Otou Gate were immediately defeated!
The ashigaru at Otemon were first cleared. Yamaoka Inuhachiro also ran out from the crowd and opened the Otemon with several ashigaru. Then Yamaoka Inuhachiro and several Ashigaru held their torches high and waved them in the air several times.
At the same time, the people of Ika County including Akao Kiyosuna, Isono Umasa, and Amemori Kiyosada who were ambushing under a grassy slope outside Otemon also understood and immediately commanded the ashigaru to rush out.
"Kill!"
"The gate of Goze Mountain Castle has been opened, everyone rush!"
"oh!"
In this battle, no one from Kyogoku Takamasa's team participated in the battle except for Nobuharu Baba's riding team. To ambush such a force, it must be led by a strong general and cannot have too many people. Too many people will easily expose it.
After thinking about it, only the famous "Three Generals of Hai Chiyu" in history can take on this important task.
Although Tsunachika Uboku did not participate in the battle in Imahama City, Isono Kama Masuna was a more awesome general than Tsunachika Uboku.
As the Kyogoku family's troops marched out, the Yoshimi family's Ashikaru at Otemon were quickly annihilated.
At this time, Masakune Yoshimi, who was fighting the fire in Ninomaru, also learned of the incident at Otemon.
When he heard the news that Sheng Xin of Shan County had rebelled and Yijian Qingqing was killed, Yijian Changjing, who was carrying a wooden barrel, felt weak at the feet and almost fell to the ground without stopping.
"How can it be?"
"How could Shanxian Shengxin rebel?! This is fake!"
"Illusions are all illusions!"
"My lord, it is undoubtedly the Ashigaru of the Yamagata family who attacked Otemon! Not only the Yamagata family, but also an ashigaru of the Kyogoku family outside the city attacked the city. Now Otemon has been lost!"
"Sir Yi Jian!" Muto Tomoe also hurried over at this time, "There is no need to say anything, I already know everything!"
"Yamaki Shengxin rebelled and Otemon fell! Fortunately, the Kyogoku Ashigaru who invaded the city were only a small team, otherwise they would not have been able to ambush quietly outside the city!"
"The top priority now is to retake Otemon before the Kyogoku family's army enters the city!"
"Otherwise, you and I will have to be buried together tonight!"
