different warring states of japan

Chapter 429
After resting for a while, Terutora Uesugi stood up resolutely and said to Shiba Yoshigin.

"Mr. Kenshin, let's go."

"it is good!"

The two went out side by side without taking anyone with them.

Matsukura Castle is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with Ninomaru in the lower part and Honomaru in the upper part. The barrel narrow road first goes around the Honmaru for half a circle and arrives at Ninomaru.

The main entrance of Ninomaru is facing inward again, and it makes a half-circle from the side of Honomaru, and all actions are under Honomaru's view. If the enemy attacks, it will be poured with projectile weapons.

The entrance of Honomaru is stuck on the side of Ninomaru. To attack Honomaru, you must take down Ninomaru.

Otherwise, the army line in the narrow path of the barrel, which is already in the form of a long snake formation, will be flanked by Ninomaru behind when attacking Honomaru.

The layout of this kind of mountain city is extremely disgusting. The whole process of siege is to advance while being beaten. Some strong cities even have a five-maru structure.

In the Middle Ages when there were no artillery, attacking such a mountain city could only be filled with human lives.

But in peacetime, it is convenient to go from Ninomaru to Honmaru.

Terutora Uesugi and Yoshigin Shiba only need to cross the main gate of Ninomaru, walk up the ramp for a while, and they will arrive at the main gate of Honomaru.

The retainers leading the way were extremely respectful, and the two of them crossed the threshold of Honmaru with expressionless faces.

With the closing of the wooden door behind him, Yiyin stood covered in hairs, as if he had fallen into hell.

He thought he had already adapted to the cruelty of the battlefield, but he still overestimated himself.

When he was alone and in danger, far away from his own warrior Ji, he found himself afraid, which felt like the first battle in Owari.

At that time, Yiyin broke out in fear, charged back at the enemy, and beheaded for the first time in his life.

Taking a deep breath, trying to adjust his state, suddenly his palm felt warm, it turned out that Uesugi Terutoro held his hand.

Her hands are like catkins, her skin is like creamy fat, her ten fingers are like pointed bamboo shoots, and her white and beautiful jade shines through.

He stared blankly for a moment, and said in a low voice.

"Let go, what a shame."

Uesugi Terutora chuckled and answered in a low voice.

"Don't let it go."

Yoshigin curled his lips, and found that his fluttering heart had settled down again. He glanced at Terutor Uesugi, saw her solemn expression, and took his hand to move on.

I can't see that you are quite reliable.

Yiyin smiled unconsciously, and was led forward by her.

Uesugi Terutoro felt a strange feeling in his heart, suddenly he was grateful to Shiina Yasushi, and only hoped that this road would never end.

The Tianshou Pavilion has not been around for a long time. The endless wars in recent years have made each family pay more and more attention to the city, so the Tianshou Pavilion appeared.

The house governor's residence was turned into a castle tower for the purpose of having a wide view and occupying the commanding heights.The lower floor of the castle tower is used as a residence, and the upper floor serves as a command tower in wartime.

Matsukura Castle is a structure of double towers, with the two towers as the main body of the maru, and the outside is divided into the inner court, the middle court and the outer court.

The outer periphery is the residence for the servants such as Ma Huizhong, Xiaoxing, servants, etc., and the inner courtyard is the residence of the relatives of the lord.

Shiina Yasunon wanted to besiege and kill Uesugi Terutora, so he must choose to meet with Xiao Tianshou, who is far away from his relatives in the inner house.

The small tenshu was one level lower than the larger one. Uesugi Terutora and Shiba Yoshigin walked through the inner courtyard and entered the aisle inside the small tenshu.

Since entering the room, the surrounding area was much darker, Uesugi Terutoro squeezed Yoshinori's palm.

Yoshihiro kowtowed slightly, and the two of them took advantage of a blind spot, Uesugi Terutoro covered the mouth of the retainer leading the way, and pushed her down to the ground.

Yiyin turned around and looked outward to be vigilant, but the outside did not notice any changes here.He gestured to Uesugi Terutoro, indicating that she could interrogate.

Uesugi Terutoro put the rib across the retainer's throat, and warned in a low voice.

"Don't shout! Tell me, why did Shiina Yasushi attack me?"

Although the situation was weird, Uesugi Terutora still couldn't be 100% sure of Shiina Yasunon's betrayal, so he had to make a gesture to scare this person.

Holding the last trace of fantasy in my heart, maybe it was really a misunderstanding.

The Shiina retainer was pressed to the ground, his eyes rolled wildly, and he asked in a low voice.

"What is the meaning of His Highness Nagao? My Highness invites you to come to Songcang Castle for a talk, and there is no malice."

Teruhu Uesugi cheated on her.

"Stop quibbling! My family has already reported to me in secret, why did they set up an ambush in the city to kill me?"

The retainer's mind was instantly confused, and an inner ghost appeared!Since Xiangzong cooperated with the Shiina family, the two sides were wary of each other and did not trust each other.

She actually believed Uesugi Terutoro's probing words, thinking about which link had gone wrong, and forgot to refute for a while.

Seeing that she was silent, Uesugi Teruta's heart sank, this matter is likely to be true.

Only then did the Shiina vassal realize that his hesitation was the best evidence, that his success fell short, and he couldn't pretend anymore.

She is Xiaoma Changguang's confidant, and she was sent to do tricks to lure the enemy into the depths. At this time, the situation was exposed, and she suddenly became desperate and shouted.

"Come on! Changwei Jinghu found out!"

The shout echoed in the corridor of the promenade structure, Uesugi Terutoro made a decisive decision and wiped her throat.

She made a strange noise, and wanted to shout, but the air went straight into her throat, and she could no longer make a sound.

Blood poured into the trachea, spit out blood foam, clutched his neck in pain, suffocated to death.

She yelled outside and stopped for a moment, and then there was the sound of the impact of weapons and armor, and the sound of running steps, getting closer and closer.

Most of the castle towers were made of paper doors and wooden boards, which Uesugi Terutora took out as fuel, and Shiba Yoshigin struck with a flint to ignite the paper doors.

Uesugi Terutora took out the jug from his waist and sprinkled it around, and Yoshihiro tapped it one by one with the paper door.

After doing all this, they thought about retreating towards the way they came from.

At this time, two Ji warriors rushed out of the Tianshou Pavilion, holding swords and looking ferocious.

The corridor was blocked by the fire, and they gritted their teeth and rushed through the fire, chasing after them.

Yoshihiro and Uesugi Teruhu rushed to the inner courtyard outside the gate, only to see seven or eight Ji warriors posing with sabers.

Yiyin pushed her back into the door, closed the sliding door, and shouted.

"You solve the last two!"

Although Terotora Uesugi felt that it was not appropriate for Yoshigin to deal with seven or eight warriors, it was too late to argue and turned around with his sword drawn.

Prepare to kill the two pursuers first, and then go out to help.

She rushed towards the person in front, and at the moment when the sword positions in the middle of the two were about to intersect, Uesugi Terutoro made a sudden stop, dodged the sword, kicked out and hit the opponent's calf.

The opponent's calf bone hurt, he leaned forward and bowed his head slightly, trying to kneel on one knee, trying to control his body, but Terotora Uesugi chopped off his head with a single knife.

After dealing with this person, he hadn't stood firm yet, and a person behind him had already arrived, killing him with a single blow.

Uesugi Terutora's strength had faded, but his stamina had not yet developed, so he could only hold back the opponent's attack with his sword.

The opponent hit her with a knife and pressed her hard against the wall.

Relying on his short stature, Uesugi Terotora was smaller than the average Ji Samurai, so his short stature took advantage of the situation to release her strength.

Then he hit her chin with a left uppercut, and when she was dizzy and retreating, he swung the knife with his right hand along the opponent's back, cutting off her palm.

At the moment when she was unable to bear the pain, she kicked her to the ground, stepped on her chest and stabbed the knife into her neck.

He drew the knife and spattered blood, and silently wiped away the blood on his face.

Uesugi Terutora had no time to stay, walked out quickly, opened the door and rushed out, wanting to fight side by side with Yoshigin.

Then, be silly on the spot.

In just a few breaths after she killed the two Ji warriors, seven or eight Ji warriors in the inner court had all fallen to the ground and died.

Yiyin looked back at her and scolded.

"What are you in a daze for! Come here quickly!"

Uesugi Terutora came back to his senses, and followed.

Yiyin looked out through the crack of the door, surrounded by naginata nuns.

"No, they are all long-handled naginata, we can't kill them, so we block the door and find another way."

Saying that, Yiyin pulled all the objects that could be moved around to block behind the door.

The outside seemed to be surprised by the accident, hesitating for a while, and has no plans to rush to the door.

Uesugi Terutoro helped finish pulling, gasped a few times, and asked.

"What should we do now?"

She meant what she said, and she promised to obey Yiyin's orders before, so she really obeyed her orders.

I feel calm in my heart, the worst is to die together and become a pair of desperate mandarin ducks.

If Yiyin knew what she was thinking, he would definitely give her a blank stare, but right now he had no time to think about it, and walked around the inner courtyard wall.

The inner court is not the outer wall of the city, it cannot be used as a city wall, and it does not need to be repaired from time to time, there are always some damaged places.

Yiyin found a hole, which seemed to be a dog hole dug by wild cats and dogs. The soil was loose and could be dug downward, and if it was enlarged, it could barely pass people.

Terutor Uesugi stared dumbfounded, pointed at the dog hole with trembling fingers and said.

"You want me to climb the dog hole?
no!I just died here, fighting these nuns!Can't climb dog holes either! "

Yiyin couldn't stand her and cursed.

"What does it mean that the nuns appear here? You don't understand?

The Ichizo Temple in Shincheon County has teamed up with the Shiina family!Shiina Yasunon is going to use Etchu Ichikomune to fight against Jinbo Chief!

You are useless to her, it is best to die here, and the chaos in Echigo will be the best.

Is now the time to save face?The most important thing is to get out alive! "

At this time, there was a rushing sound from outside the wall.

Yoshigin grabbed Uesugi Terutora's arm and said sharply.

"Your and my subordinates are fighting to the death outside, do you still want to waste their lives in order to save that bit of face!"

Terotora Uesugi looked at the angry Yoshigin, gritted his teeth and bowed his head.

"I'll drill! I'll just drill! Ahhh! Shiina Kangyin, you bastard!"
