At this time, at the top of Tianshen Mountain City.
"What are the Ukita Nao family doing?" Ukita Munekage looked at the Ukita army rushing towards Tenjin Mountain Castle and felt a chill in his heart. When the Ukita army attacked the Oda army just now, Urakami Munekage thought for a moment that he was crazy.
.Dare to attack the 50,000-strong army of the Oda Army when they didn't even have 10,000 men? However, what happened next was beyond his imagination - the Hashiba Army abandoned the camp and fled in panic without even resisting.
Could it be that the Ukita Nao family killed Hideyoshi Hashiba just like they did when they assassinated the Mimura family members? It's not such an exaggeration, right?
After a moment of surprise, Urakami Munekage began to hesitate whether to send troops. If so, which family would he help?
Maybe they can help the Oda family and send troops to attack the Uki family. If they can turn the tide and block the Uki family's attack, it will be considered a great achievement. Maybe they can get more fiefdoms back. However, when I think of Hashiba Hideyoshi's previous bad behavior - the Urakami family clearly
They have already asked for surrender, but they still deliberately let the Uki family come to attack the Urakami family - now the Ushiba family themselves have been unexpectedly attacked by the Uki family. They are really feeding a tiger and deserve it. Such a person, even if you help him, what can you gain?
What's the benefit? Besides, Urakami Munekage couldn't swallow this breath, and he was actually abandoned by Hideyoshi Hashiba like garbage.
Then either help the Uki family and attack the Hashiba family together? In this way, when the Mori family comes, he can explain his previous request to the Oda family as a false defeat. But Urakami Munekage can clearly see it from the top of Tenjinzan Castle, although Hashiba
The army abandoned the camp and retreated, but the Hongye army behind them was not at all confused and was quickly seizing the nearby terrain. Even if the Uki family could overwhelm the Yushiba family, they could not defeat the Yuqiu family, and this battle would never be won.
machine.
It was in this constant hesitation that Urakami Munekage missed the opportunity to fight. Now, the Oda family has successfully turned defeat into victory and surrounded the Ukita family under the Tenjinyama Castle. The desperate Ukita army rushed towards Tenjinyama Castle.
"My lord! The Ukita Nao family has sent an envoy!" Motomasa Goto, who was guarding the door, quickly ran up the tower and came to Urakami Munekage and said, "He is waiting at the door. Do you want him to come in?"
"No, what's there to say to that guy from the Ukita Nao family?" Urakami Munekage cursed loudly, then turned around to leave. Goto Motomasa hurriedly turned his eyes to his father Goto Katsumoto.
After Fujikatsumoto hesitated for a moment, he coughed twice, stopped Urakami Munekage and said, "My lord, the situation is critical now. No matter what, we must listen to what this traitor wants to do."
"What's good to hear?" Urakami Munekage snorted twice, "Since I asked about his words, I have almost completely ruined my ancestor's foundation. What else is there to hear? There must be something going on or some dirty trick, don't even think about it!"
"My lord, no matter what happens now, the Ushiba family definitely doesn't want us to be good. Even if we ask for surrender, they still want to destroy us." Goto Katsumoto earnestly persuaded his lord, "No matter what happens now, the Uki family does too.
We can still listen to Hashiba Hideyoshi’s enemies.”
"Okay, okay, listen, listen." Urakami Munekage complained loudly and impatiently, "Let the messenger come in, and if you fart, hurry up."
After getting the order, Goto Genmasa immediately ran down the castle tower and led the envoy from the Uki family back. As soon as Urakami Munekei saw the envoy, he was so angry that veins popped up on his face, and he pulled out a knife and roared at him.
Said: "Ukita Naojia? How much courage have you given me, and you actually dare to enter Tenjin Mountain City by yourself? Do you believe it or not, I will chop you into pieces with one knife!"
The messenger who came was none other than Ukita Naoie himself.
"Well, well, killing me won't help, my lord?" Naoko Ukita changed to the old title and said sarcastically with a smile, "Besides, why don't I want to kill you? You are still alive, to me
It’s the biggest threat.”
"Then you dare to come to me?" Urakami Munekage suddenly raised the knife and put it on Ukita Naoya's neck, "Who do you think I am? Are you looking for death?"
"My lord, it's easy for you to kill me. But after killing me, the Urakami family will be wiped out immediately." The Ukita Nao family said shabbily in a weird tone, "No matter how you say it, you were once the overlord of one party, and you ended up dead.
But it’s so embarrassing. Even if I rebelled back then, I spared your life out of the bond between my former master and slave. Do you think Hideyoshi Hashiba would bypass you?”
"Do you need to worry about this?" Urakami Munekage fiercely pushed the knife forward and cut Ukita Naoie's neck, bleeding slowly. However, Ukita Naoie remained calm and smiling.
He said, "After all, I was once the elder of the Urakami family, so it's only natural that I do my best for my family."
"Traitor, if you have something to say, speak quickly. I don't have time to listen to your nonsense." Goto Katsumoto also scolded in a deep voice from the side. Ukita Naoie shook his head helplessly, spread his hands and said: "Okay, then.
Master Teng has a request, so I will get straight to the point."
"If you can't explain why, don't even think about leaving Tenjin Mountain City alive." Urakami Munekage threatened fiercely, "I will kill you right away, you traitor, to avenge the countless deaths."
"As you wish."

"The Uki family has sent an envoy to the city."
In the temple that was used as a command post in the distance, Hideyoshi Ushiba was holding the telescope that Yu Qiupei had adjusted the focus for him, constantly looking at the situation of Tenjin Mountain Castle, and shouted excitedly: "The Uki family just sent an envoy to the city.
It’s over!”
"What, does this give you an excuse to destroy the Urakami family together?" Yu Qiuping said casually, "This is too forceful."
"If you want to impose a crime, there is no excuse." Hashiba Hideyoshi himself said without shame, "You have to find some reason. Let's say that they were watching from the other side when the Uki family was attacked by surprise, and after the war, they had an affair with the Uki family.
It’s clear that there is something wrong in my heart.”
"Guess what will happen to them later, Hongye?" Seeing that Yu Qiupei ignored him, Hashiba Hideyoshi pushed Yu Qiupei's shoulder with his other hand and said.
"Either we reach an agreement, and the Urakami family opens the door to let the Yuki family process, and we wait for help together. Or the agreement breaks down, and the Uki family starts to attack Tianshen Mountain Castle." Yu Qiuping gave two answers without thinking.
"Which one do you think is more likely?" Hideyoshi Hashiba asked again.
"The second one." Yu Qiuping responded without even thinking.
"I guess he was the first one." Hideyoshi Hashiba laughed dryly, "And it's very likely that after Ukita's army found a way to sneak into the city, they launched an uprising and the two sides went shopping in the city."
"You have a beautiful idea." Yu Qiuping stopped using the telescope and rested against the courtyard wall.
"Then let's wait and see who can guess it correctly." Hideyoshi Hashiba also put down the telescope, rubbed his eyes, and stretched leisurely.

After a while, there was movement outside Tenjinzan Castle. Ukita's army reorganized their armaments with great force and attacked the unrepaired south gate of Tenjinzan Castle. The soldiers of the Urakami family resisted desperately, but they were still unable to cope with the offensive of Ukita's army.
.
"I didn't expect you to be right." Hideyoshi gloated, "That's good. Ukita's army has destroyed the Urakami family, so we don't have to do it ourselves."
"You shouldn't have taken action against those who have surrendered." Yu Qiuping was still very dissatisfied with Hideyoshi Hideyoshi's actions, "But this is the territory you are responsible for, so I won't say anything. You can do whatever you like."
"The Urakami family came to ask for surrender, so why don't we just pretend not to know. It's not your fault, Hongye, for informing the whole army about the Urakami family's request to surrender." Hashiba Hideyoshi slapped Yu Qiupei on the back with some reproach.
He patted him and said, "Otherwise, wouldn't I have to think of so many tricks to kill someone with a borrowed knife?"
"You were the first person I came to notify. At that time, you were already thinking about how to trick the Urakami family. Don't blame me." Yu Qiuping picked up the telescope, rotated it with both hands, adjusted it, and then aimed it.
The direction of Tianshen Mountain City. He looked at it and suddenly felt that something was not right.
"The Urakami family seems to be retreating." Yu Qiuping greeted Hideyoshi Hashiba. The latter smiled and picked up the telescope to look into the distance. However, he couldn't adjust the focus for a long time, so he had to hand the telescope to Yu.
Qiuping helped. As Yu Qiuping took the telescope, he muttered in disbelief: "The Urakami family retreated? Where to retreat? They should only have an isolated city left in Tenjin Mountain Castle? Are you sure it's not Urakami Munekage who is absconding?"
"How could anyone abscond with thousands of people?" Hideyoshi Hashiba said casually, with his hands on his waist.
Yu Qiuping adjusted it twice but failed to get it right, so he simply handed his telescope to Hashiba Hideyoshi. It took him a long time to adjust the focus of the telescope handed over by Hashiba Hideyoshi. Due to the shielding of Tenjin Mountain Castle, it was not possible to see from inside the castle.
When we arrived at the north gate of Tenjin Mountain Castle, there were indeed many soldiers of the Urakami family running away on the mountain road outside the north gate.
"They couldn't defeat Yuxi's family, so they withdrew? But the north is not their territory, where should they withdraw?" Yu Qiuping shook the telescope in confusion and looked at the situation around him. At this time, more and more
Many ninjas and messengers also rushed over from Tenjin Mountain Castle to report to Uakiuhei and Hashiba Hideyoshi that the Urakami family abandoned the city and fled.
"Hehe." Hashiba Hideyoshi snorted twice, put down the telescope, and casually closed the two cylinders with a "bang" sound.
"Be gentle, I feel bad if it's not yours." Yuqiu gave Hideyoshi Hashiba a flat look and took the binoculars back.
"Momiji, what kind of medicine do you think Urakami Munekage sells in this gourd?" Hashiba Hideyoshi turned his head and looked at Yuqiupei pretending to be puzzled.
"I don't care what kind of medicine he sells, I'm not the one who wants to buy medicine anyway." Yu Qiuping finished the sentence with a smile, turned around and left, not intending to pick up Hideyoshi's troubles, "I'm going to eat.
