Pillars of the Wu family

() Inubushi Castle is located in the northwest of Echigo Uonuma County. To the northeast of this mountain city built on a high mountain is the authority mountain. On the east side of the mountain is a beautiful cherry blossom forest. To the east of this cherry blossom forest is the famous At the foot of the mountain is the Shinano River, which is a small ten-day mountain city. At the same time, because of the loss of the princess, there is a big fight. Xu is divided into two groups, playing the game of big tyrants, Long Tail Hu Ji is very happy, there is indeed a piece of late cherry blossoms here in the season when the cherry blossoms are withering, she is grateful for her decision to sneak out for the first time, she is not at all I didn't realize that I had gotten into a catastrophe.

Another game ended, and the sun was already setting. The little maid Axu worriedly tugged at her sleeve and said, "Your Highness, should we go back?" Ji warriors also stopped and gathered together. Looking at her in a hurry.

Long-tailed Hu Ji pouted, and said helplessly, "Okay, let's go back."

About an hour after the girls set off, a group of Echigo cavalry with Chikuwa two feather flying sparrow flags was slowly marching on the Echigo street of Yakushi Yueshita. He shouted to a group of dejected warriors behind him: "Hurry up! We must hurry up to Shikaichuan before the sun sets, and we can set up camp there."

"My lord! The hall is unfair to us!"

"Of course it's not fair! He never looked down on our Yangbei people!" Ben Zhuang Fanchang bit his lip, whipped the dead branches and rotten leaves beside the mountain road wantonly, and said viciously: "My father insisted on resisting the long-tailed scenery back then. Bear the grudge, it must be because of this reason!"

Honjo Fanchang's uncle, the mature and prudent Sungoro Honjo reminded worriedly: "My lord..."

"What are you afraid of? Who will know about this barren mountain?" Fanchang said viciously: "He can rebel and become the lord of the country for the sake of Changwei, why can't I, Fanchang, marry the princess of the Changwei family? Why? You tell me?"

Sun Wulang of the village took his nephew's arm, glanced left and right at the deserted mountains and mountains, and advised: "My lord! It's over! It's really over! If you talk about it, it will be bad for my family!"

"Why can't you say it? Are you afraid that his Xuanyuan will not succeed? You are not afraid of me!" Honjo Fanchang pushed his uncle away, and continued to curse: "His Nagao clan is from the Kamakura clan of the Bando Heira clan, and I, Honjo Clan is the Chichibu clan of the Bando Heira Clan! Everyone is not a direct descendant and is also the Bando Happei Clan, no one is higher than anyone else, so how can the Nagao family be the head of the country? Is it because of rebellion?"

Benzhuang Sun Wulang was pushed and almost fell off his horse. Being so humiliated in front of his family, Ben Zhuang Sun Wulang almost cursed, held back his anger and continued to admonish: "My lord! The hall is not that kind of person, but he never I haven’t taken the initiative to target my dealer, so don’t hurt the unity of Echigo because of a little misunderstanding.”

"Not that kind of person? Then why did he tie me up and make me look ugly in public? I just want to marry Changwei Jinghu's sister, why should he stop me, why? I just want to marry her, no one can stop me! I can't!" Fanzhang roared with a ferocious face, and no one from the warriors of the Zhuang family tried to persuade him, and the silent team marched far away.

Not long after, a horse-riding warrior from the village came galloping from the mountain road in front, and when he saw the growth of the village, he shouted loudly: "My lord! There are dozens of warriors on horseback in front, and their banner is Jiuyaoba. "

"Nagao's family?" Honjo Shigeng showed his white teeth, and shouted at the horse-riding warrior behind him who was eager to try: "Boys! Come with me to see how the warrior from the Nagao's family ran to the countryside Yes, maybe we still need our help! Hahaha..."

"Yes!" Like hungry wolves, the horse-riding warriors of the Benzhuang Army bared their fangs viciously and galloped forward. <The weather is getting warmer, and under the boundless sunset, the fully armed warriors are already a little sweaty when they galloped wildly. Yamaoka Tokicho rode his Oshu good horse, and slowly leaned over to persuade: "The owner of the hall My lord! Don't be in such a hurry! We still have time."

"Can I not be in a hurry? Look at the time, it will be dark in another hour."

"Speed ​​up! Even faster!"

When the last rays of the sun faded from the sky, the [-]-horse back from Kira's family finally rushed to the eastern slope of Juanshan Mountain. Looking at the scattered cherry blossoms and pastry crumbs, Kira Yoshishi's face was ashen, and Nagao Hu Ji disappeared completely, and the news was like a bomb exploded in his head.

"What's going on!" Nagao Jinglian also rushed over, seeing the obvious traces of activity on the ground, he faced the mountain city! "

"Yes!" The Nagao family samurai hurriedly turned his horse's head and looked around.

"Jing Liandian! Please contact all the people of China and Vietnam, block all the crossings, and make sure to find Princess Hu Ji!"

"I understand!" Nagao Jinglian rode away without saying a word.

Yoshihime Kira restrained the anger in his chest, and ordered: "Zenjiro! Bring your men to find me now! Dig three feet and find Princess Toraki! If you can't find Princess Toraki, don't even think about leaving!"

"Yes!"

Nearly a thousand riders seemed to be scattered in this wilderness, and Kira Yoshishi also abandoned the guards around him and picked up a torch to search in the wilderness. The dots of flames spread in all directions like dancing fireflies in the dark night.

At the foot of Mt. Bashi, Shihai Kawahara, a group of scarred Ji warriors surrounded an exhausted girl in white clothes. They didn't wear big letters, nor did they carry extra rations, and they didn't have anything to protect themselves except for the sword and bow in their hands. Axu anxiously pulled the long-tailed Hu Ji and said, "Your Highness! Run quickly! We will buy you time."

After escaping all the way through hardships, the Ji warriors were exhausted and unable to go any further, while the horse-riding warriors of the Honzhuang Army still kept up. They relied on the advantage of numbers to adopt segmented pursuit tactics. Running while the other teams moved forward slowly, and when the team in front was tired, they switched to another team to continue chasing. Such a pursuit was like a pack of wolves hunting, which made Long Tail Hu Ji angry and desperate.

"Where are you going?"

"Minlun Mountain City is nearby! As long as Her Royal Highness gets there, you can call for reinforcements? That's guarded by the water hall of the Lord of the Little Kingdom!"

"It's getting dark now, do you think they'll open the mountain city to welcome me?" Long-tailed Tiger Ji lamented, "And that mountain city, including the old and the young, only has a hundred or so people. A knight on horseback, no one will come to rescue us."

At this moment, Fanchang came out surrounded by a group of torches, and said with a big smile: "Your Highness, we are really destined! When I Fanchang thought that I would never have a chance to get you again, the gods and Buddhas actually sent Her Royal Highness to you." It is my great fortune to have it delivered to me!"

Nagao Torahime's face turned pale from anger, took a deep breath and scolded: "Chiyo Inomaru! You need to know what you are doing! Blatantly attacking my Echigo's cavalry team, are you plotting treason?"

"Conspiracy? Hmph! I, Fanchang, have no fault at all, but I was trapped in a tree by your brother and exposed to the sun for a day. How can I swallow such a shame!" At this point, Fanchang's words changed, and he said hesitantly : "Of course, if Her Highness the Princess can get married with you, all of this will not be a problem. I wonder what Her Highness the Princess would like? Hahaha..."

"My lord! What are you doing?" Ben Zhuang Sun Wulang grabbed his arm and tried to persuade him, "You are trying to force me to death!"

"Stop talking nonsense! I'm the governor of the house, and you have to take care of what I want to do? Leave it to me!" Ben Zhuang Fanchang pushed his uncle away, and shouted: "Listen carefully, I can't mess with any of them. Kill them all, let me catch them all!"

"Yes! My lord, you can rest assured!" The horse-riding warrior of the Benzhuang army rushed over with a smile, waving the long rope in his hand.

At this moment, a group of cavalry rushed over with torches in their hands. When they saw the movement in front of them, they sped up and rushed over. The leader was Kirayoshi who was chasing all the way. At this point, when he saw a group of warriors forming a semicircle surrounding more than [-] cavalry, he immediately shouted: "Follow me and rush over! Don't love to fight, save Hu Ji and go!"

The rumbling iron cavalry alarmed the mounted warriors of the Honzhuang army. When they saw clearly that there were only about 20 cavalry in front of them, they relaxed. Honzhuang Fanzhang let out a loud roar: "What are you still doing in a daze, catch people quickly, and the others will follow me and turn around to fight!"

In the dark night, with the dim moonlight shining on the ground, a group of mounted warriors charged at each other with swords and guns. In the dim light, the horses of the Kira family gave up the troublesome big body guns and switched to more efficient scimitars. At the moment of close combat, he suddenly threw the torch in his hand to the formation of the Honzhuang army. Caught off guard, the Honzhuang army fell into chaos.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the horses of Kira's family quickly drew out their scimitars, and swung them suddenly when they were in the same position as Honjo's army. The knight on horseback was cut into two pieces by the waist, and then he tightened his grip on the reins and put his feet on the stirrups to relieve the momentary imbalance.

One knife after another is like flowing clouds and flowing water. In just a short moment, 23 riders completed a beautiful round of slashing. At the moment of the battle, 18 people from the village army were killed on the spot, and 26 people were hacked. Eight people were cut in half and [-] were wounded, while the Mahui people suffered only a few minor injuries. With their excellent defense, they were able to withstand the hasty swinging guns of the Zhuang army. fight back.

And Honjo Fanchang escaped the slashing of two horsemen one after another, and even took the opportunity to stab one of them in the gauntlet. He can be sure that the warrior's arm must be injured, but he can only do this step. See Seeing the people who had suffered heavy losses, Honjo Fanzhang shouted angrily: "Bastard! Take a spear and stab! Why do you want to avoid it? Why!"

"My lord! They have broken through! They are going to run!" A warrior reminded him, awakening him from his anger.

"Don't let them run away! Catch up!" Benzhuang Fanda roared: "I will charge anyone who can mount a horse! Never let them escape!"

After a round of assault and slashing, the physical strength of Kira's army also dropped to freezing point. After all, they ran non-stop for an afternoon and chased them so far. : "My lord! Please take Princess Hu Ji and leave first! I will separate and escape for the other Ji warriors later!"

Kira Yoshitoki asked worriedly, "Are you alright?"

"It's okay, it's just that the gauntlet has been cut off in half, and there are some flesh wounds on my arm. Fortunately, I reacted quickly... Don't waste time, Lord Master! Please leave quickly!"

"Okay! I understand! Hu Ji, follow me! Everyone else takes one person and leaves quickly!"

"Yes!"

More than 40 riders scattered into more than 20 torches and fled in different directions, making Honjo, who was chasing after him, gritted his teeth angrily: "Don't stand still, let everyone else give up! No matter what, we must chase Her Royal Highness! "(To be continued.)
