In a small wooden house in Setoyama Castle, the city lord Akazu Mitsuki had just finished drinking a bowl of porridge.

At present, the grain reserves in the city are still enough for the defenders to last for several months, but I really don’t know how long the Da Nei Lianjun will be besiege here, so Chixue Guangqing had to order strictly control the grain supply in the city. As the city lord, of course, he can only set an example.

"Report!" At this moment, an emergency report from the nearby servant rang out of the door.

"Why are you panic?" Red Seed Guangqing put down the empty bowl that had not left any traces of water, and shouted...

"Master Lord, a team of enemy soldiers came from outside the city." The close servant immediately walked in and reported.

"Do you want to attack the city again? Humph, let them come. I'll let them see our bravery!" Chixue Guangqing said boldly.

"Master Lord, they did not attack the city. They were setting fires outside the city to destroy the houses of town people." The nearby servant said immediately.

"What? Are there no one in the Chijiu family bullying me?" Chijiu Guangqing stood up with a "thump" sound, then quickly walked out of the wooden house.

He shouted as he walked out, "Come, gather the team immediately, and let us drive away the cowards who only set fire everywhere."

At this time, Naosu Kumaya had already led 200 cavalry to set fire outside the city. The task of setting fire to lure the enemy is too simple. Naosu Kumaya was secretly glad that he had given such a task in time. This is simply a credit for getting it...

"Sir, be careful. The gate of the enemy formation is open." The cavalry beside him shouted.

"Oh?" Kumaya Naosu turned his head and looked towards Seto Yama Castle. Sure enough, he saw that the city gate was slowly opening.

"Don't panic, set fire to me." Kumaya Naoki said calmly. At this distance, it was not too late for him to retreat slowly until the opponent's team completely drove out of the city gate.

"He Fang, you dare to set fire outside the city!" He said this soon. Just as Kumaguchi was about to wait for a while, a loud shout came from the city gate, and then a general rode a dark horse and killed him alone.

"Sir, be careful!" the cavalry beside him shouted.

"Hmm?" Naosu Kumaya obviously did not expect such a situation. For a moment, his brain shorted and he was stunned.

"Haha, die." When Kumaya Naosuo woke up, the other party had already arrived with a laugh. He only saw a big knife slashing over with cold light. Then, accompanied by the screams of the cavalry around him who had no time to react. He felt his whole body fly up, and then his vision gradually became darker. The moment he closed his eyes, he saw his headless body falling off the horse's back.

"Haha, is it that the generals of the internal family who are so powerful?" Kurakui Kura smiled and used his spear to lift Kumagu Naoji's head, which was still blood-lost. Then he was about to put the head away and hang it in front of the horse's head.

The Ouchi generals who were watching the battle and preparing to siege were stunned. Even Yoshitaka Ouchi and Mori Moon were stunned.

"Don't be arrogant, the Genji family's Luo family, Saemon Hiramaemae, comes to take your head!" At this moment, a black shadow suddenly emerged from the enemy coalition that planned to besiege Setoyama Castle.

This black shadow is Zhengliang's mount "Baili Hei". "Baili Hei" killed in front of Chizui Guangqing like a whirlwind. At this time, Chizui Guangqing was about to hang Kumagu Nao's head in front of the war horse. He was also an experienced person. Seeing that Zhengliang stabbed him with a shot, he quickly raised his gun to block it. However, because the spear was carrying Kumagu Nao's head at this time, the weight was different from usual. Chizui Guangqing's movements were obviously slower than usual.

It was just this slow beat that Zhengliang's spear had already stabbed. At the critical moment, the Red Grass Guangqing showed the general again, and decisively relaxed his hand and loosened the spear in his hand. Then, on one side of his body, he tried to avoid Zhengliang's spear.

But Zhengliang is not a vegetarian. The moment when Chizui Guangqing let go of the spear in his hand, Zhengliang predicted the next action of Chizui Guangqing. So the moment when Chizui Guangqing's body began to flash sideways, the spear changed from straight to sweeping.

"Baili Hei" was already fast. Then at such a horse speed, the sweep was actually very strong. Although Kurakui was almost avoided a blow, he was inevitably swept by Zhengliang's spear because he was on the back of the horse. On one side of his body, he was a little lost in balance. Now that he was swept, his body immediately began to become unbalanced. In a critical moment, Kurakui immediately tightened the reins in his hand, trying to use the horse god to regain balance.

However, the most fatal blow appeared at this time. Just as "Baili Hei" and the war horse of Chixiu Guangqing passed by, the war horse of "Baili Hei" actually used its hind legs to give the war horse of Chixiu Guangqing a fierce hind legs. In the pain, the war horse of Chixiu Guangqing immediately staggered. Chixiu Guangqing, who had finally managed to maintain balance, was thrown to the ground and fell four feet towards the sky. The sword on her body also fell aside.

"Swoosh" Just as Chizui Guangqing tried to get up again, Zhengliang was already riding "Bailihei" and turned his head to kill him, and a long spear was pressed on his throat. Then he was hit by Zhengliang's head with a shot and fainted. Such a powerful general was very likely to choose to hit the gun directly.

"Kill!" After finally reacting, Yoshitaka Ouchi, who saw this scene, immediately shouted loudly and ordered the coalition forces to kill Xiang, who rushed to rescue Akazu Mitsuki. More importantly, because the incident happened suddenly, the gate of Setoyama Castle in the distance was still open. How could he miss such a good opportunity? So the Ouchi family shouted and rushed over and covered them up.

Among the crowds, the Luo family's troops quickly surrounded Zhengliang and protected Zhengliang again.

"Tie him up and treat him well!" Zhengliang ordered on the horse. Such a hero is indeed worthy of respect. According to the development of the situation, he should have been accidentally killed by a retainer in Tao Longfang when he was inspecting the city fort defense. In this way, it seems that it is better now than being killed by an unknown arrow.

As Akazu Mitsuki failed to capture Masara, the defenders of Setoyama Castle lost their backbone and their combat effectiveness also declined sharply. Soon the Dawenlian Army occupied Setoyama Castle.

The capture of Setoyama Castle happened to be on June 15, 11th of the 11th of the Astronomical Era. Historical records show that the Ouchi-eika coalition only captured Setoyama Castle in July, and now, after Masara's intervention, it is a month ahead of schedule.

"Hahaha!" In the main tent outside Setoyama Castle, Yoshitaka Ouchi seemed quite happy. Unexpectedly, the long-term unsuccessful Setoyama Castle was finally conquered. He had no reason to be unhappy.

"Your Highness Masaru, capturing the Lord of Setoyama Castle in front of the formation is a great achievement!" Ouchi Yoshitaka praised. As soon as Ouchi Yoshitaka said this, the powerful people around him also agreed. Masaru's attack was indeed impeccable, and it was indeed the main contributor to conquer Setoyama Castle. The most important thing is that they finally don't have to engage in the damn cage battle.

"Tell me, what reward do you want?" Yoshitaka Ouchi was rarely so happy, so he gave Masara the opportunity to choose a reward. The surrounding powerful men saw that Masara actually got such an opportunity, and they couldn't help but become jealous. This is a reward method that Yoshitaka Ouchi had never given before.

"Master Dazai, I have no other request. The only request is to hope that Dazai will hand over Akazu Mitsuki and his son's family to Jaiji to deal with." Masara immediately took the opportunity to say. After capturing Setoyama Castle, Akazu Mitsuki's father Akazu Mitsuki and his son Akazu Mitsuki surrendered with their families. They were imprisoned at this moment, waiting for Yoshitaka Ouchi's hair to fall.

"Oh?" Yoshitaka Ouchi stopped smiling and looked at Masara in surprise.

"It's like this." Feeling Ouchi Yoshitaka's puzzled eyes, Masara immediately analyzed: "It is naturally a celebration to be able to capture such a hero alive, so I plan to bring these people back to the territory and let the leaders appreciate it."

"Puchi!" Before Yoshitaka Ouchi reacted, there were already a few powerful men around him laughing. Is this the fat-fore eagle who bravely captured the enemy general in front of the formation? It's completely different! No, seeing that he is less than a teenager, he is really a young man's heart! The heroic image that Masayoshi and Masayo were not easy to establish in the hearts of everyone collapsed like this.

"Ah hahaha!" Finally, Yoshitaka Ouchi laughed loudly. The powerful men who had been patient for a long time also laughed out loud.

"Accurate!" Yoshitaka Ouchi said at last. It turned out that this Lord Zaemon was planning to show off with these people. That's good! He was extremely angry that Akazu Mitsuki and others blocked their army from advancing to the Avenue. Now, using being shown as a tool for Akazu Mitsuki and others, it is a more vicious way to deal with Akazu Mitsuki and others than directly killing them.

After agreeing to Masarago to hand over the mantra of Akazu Mitsuki and his son's family to Masarago to Masarago to deal with it, Yoshitaka Ouchi awarded another reward for the meritorious person.

After everything was finished, a report that had been cleaned up came from the city. Ouchi Yoshitaka immediately led everyone to Setoyama Castle.

Due to his great contribution this time, Masara was invited by Yoshitaka Ouchi to follow him and entered Seto Yama Castle together.

Everyone walked out of the tent under the leadership of Yoshitaka Ouchi. Masaru accidentally looked at Kato Duanzo who was waiting in the tent, and saw him secretly making a gesture to Masaru. Masaru was stunned when he saw this. Yes, now is the best time to implement that plan. It seems that Kato Duanzo is fully prepared.

Thinking of this, Zhengliang immediately looked into the mountains and forests near the army. Sure enough, in a big tree not far away, there was a red cloth tied to the top of the tree. Since it was on the top of the tree, no one had discovered it for a while.

After confirming the situation, Zhengliang knew that as long as his code was released, the plan could be launched immediately.

But, is now really the best time to start the plan?
Chapter completed!
