In the early morning of September 4, the sky was not yet completely bright, but Matsueuzu was already unable to wait and launched a fierce attack on Ninomaru. At the same time, he also sent an envoy to ask Miyoshi Yoshi to also send troops to attack - even if Miyoshi's army still had to paddle, at least help him restrain some of Yu Qiuping's troops.

Miyoshi Yoshiki understood that if Matsunaga Hide could not take down Guanyin Temple Castle before noon today, this battle would have failed. Therefore, he did not stand idly by, but instead led his army to attack Ninomaru's Simon.

Under such a situation, Ninomaru's city wall persisted until it was declared to fall at Qishi. However, the Oda family still did not panic under Yu Qiupi's command. They covered each other and retreated into the position between Ninomaru and Honmaru.

However, this time, since the entire Ninomaru wall had fallen, and the space between Ninomaru and Honmaru was not spacious, Miyoshi Jun and Matsunaga could stand on the city wall and use bows and arrows to suppress the long-range soldiers of the Oda Army in the high-rise buildings in the protruding high-rise buildings. Under the cover of the bows and arrows, the Miyoshi Jun and Matsunaga family's progress god took only one hour to seize the block between Ninomaru and Honmaru.

At this time, Yu Qiupi finally stopped retreating - and further back, there was Tianshou Pavilion. Tens of thousands of troops of the Oda family stood on Honmaru and kept the narrow Honmaru tightly. The Miyoshi family and the Matsunaga family took turns to attack, but it was difficult to conquer, and it was almost noon.

"Don't worry, really, really, smartness is wronged." Seeing that there was no hope of conquering, Matsuejue Hide personally rode a horse to find Miyoshi Yoshi. Although there was still a kind smile on his face and no anger could be heard in his tone, Miyoshi Yoshi understands that Matsue Hide was extremely angry: "Don't worry, even if he retains his strength and does nothing, I can still capture this Guanyin Temple City. Unfortunately, this is only the only one who is not good at returning. Isn't really satisfied with this action?"

"Danzheng, you are wrong." Miyoshi Yoshihiko glanced at Matsue Yuuki, and suddenly sneered and said, "Even if I take action, we can't beat this Guanyin Temple City today."

"Oh?" Matsue Yuuki frowned when he heard this, but the smile on his face became even stronger. "I don't know what the meaning of this is."

"Don't you see that the Rain Qiu Red Leaf is still strong." Miyoshi Yoshi looked at the maple bird flag on Tianshou Pavilion with a very vigilant look. "He could not have given up the outer positions so quickly, but in order to protect the lives of the soldiers, he retreated again and again. Until he retreated to a position that could not retreat, he would hold on to his death. His purpose was to delay for two days, as long as he had arrived at the two days and not thrown away. You look like Minomaru and Ninomaru have already been killed in one and a half days. But in fact, those were given to you by him who was unwilling to bear too much casualties. If he was unwilling to give in, he would stick to Minomaru and Ninomaru like he was holding on to Honmaru, we are still far away from Honmaru."

"Even if I attacked with all my strength yesterday, I couldn't fight. He would only change his defensive strategy and endure more casualties in order to delay time. At this time today, we will still be blocked by him in the mast."

"Hehe..." Matsu Yongjiuxiu laughed dryly when she heard this, and looked at the maple bird flag with a complicated look, "No wonder you value this kid so much, it's really something."

"Retreat. Although it is very regrettable, we still have to face the enemy's army." Miyoshi Yoshiki shook his head, not knowing whether he was talking to Matsunaga or muttering to himself: "As for our Gongfang Temple... (Here refers to Ashikaga Yoshiki, who was supported by the Miyoshi family and the Matsunaga family)"

"Ashikaga Yoshiei has already announced the world at the request of his old man, announcing that Ashikaga Yoshiki and others are rebels, and Oda Nobunaga and others' Ueluo army is rebels." Matsunaga Hide nodded to Miyoshi Yoshien, "The news will come out tomorrow."

"Where is Your Majesty the Emperor?" Miyoyo Yoshi-hyun seemed to be interrupted by Matsue-Juhishou. He shook his head with some dissatisfaction and asked, "Can you issue an edict and designate Oda Nobunaga and others as the enemy of the dynasty?"

"You are not unaware that His Majesty the Emperor and those Gong Qingshen have a good relationship with Ashikaga Yoshihiro..." Matsunagahiro smacked his lips and patted the samurai sword on his waist with some fun: "I refuse to issue an edict. I can insist on asking them to speak, but I'm afraid I will hurt the harmony."

"Then you don't have to worry. Anyway, the announcement of the enemy is not as useful as it used to be in this era." Miyoshi Yoshi-ken turned around, but his eyes did not look at Matsunata Hirohiko, but crossed Matsunata Hirohiko and looked at the sky in the northeast.

Matsue Jue Hide noticed Miyoshi Yoshi's eyes, but did not rush to look back, but asked calmly: "Just, what's wrong?"

"Punch it right, you're going to have trouble." Miyoshi Yoshihiko smiled, slowly raised his hand, and pointed to the three balls of wolf smoke slowly rising in the sky in the northeast direction.

Meanwhile, Guanyin Temple Castle Honmaru.

"Wolf smoke! Northeast direction?" The Oda family's senior samurai were standing on the Tianshou Pavilion, looking at the three groups of wolf smoke rising from the northeast in disbelief, "The lord is trying his best to do his life and will never be able to get there at this time!"

"No, that's the signal of the Asai family's wolf smoke, which means attack!" Yu Qiuhei, who has worked with the Asai family for many years, recognized the wolf smoke at a glance, "It's the reinforcements of the Asai family!"

"His Highness Asai? His Highness Asai actually came to reinforce?" Inaba Ichitei was shocked when he heard this: "When we went south to attack, wasn't the Asai family unable to send troops because of the face of the Gongfang Palace? At that time, if he sent troops, he could beat the fallen dog and seize the territory and supplies of the Hexao family. He didn't come. Now that the Matsunaga and the Sanhao family are attacking, why did he suddenly come? He doesn't eat fat, but he wants to chew bones?"

"Because Your Highness Asai is such a person who is so anxious and righteous." Yu Qiuping smiled when he heard this, and secretly slandered Asai Nagamasa in his heart: You passionate idiot!

"Report to Your Highness, the Matsunaga family and Miho family have begun to withdraw their troops!" A messenger rushed from Honmaru, "Misaga family has withdrawn from the west gate, and Matsunaga family has withdrawn from the north gate!"

"Red Leaf, are you chasing?" Yoshihiko Ikeda made a few warm-up moves eagerly, as if he could not wait to start the war.

"If you chase, you will naturally chase and cooperate with the Asai family to fight together."

"Who are you chasing? Mihao family or Matsunaga family?" Yoshihiro Ikeda asked again.

"Of course it's the Matsunaga family." Yu Qiuhei pointed to the north gate of Guanyin Temple City with his hand. "The Sanhao family can't catch up anyway, but the Matsunaga family is different. The direction he retreated from the North Gate is the direction where the Asai family came!"

·

Just as the Matsunaga army was about to retreat, the Oda army in Honmaru bit it mercilessly and chased the city walls and streets along the streets, beating the Matsunaga army to a great suffering. The Sanhao army retreated from the West Gate had already retreated without anyone to interfere.

Matsunaga Hide watched the broken troops being dragged near Ninomaru. He could not evacuate quickly, and the Yuqiu family's troops had already climbed onto Ninomaru's wall and surrounded him. He hurriedly climbed onto Minomaru's wall and looked at him, and the Asai army had appeared in his sight.

"If you break, you break." Matsunaga Hide's face turned fierce and ordered the troops who broke the rear to block the Oda army, while he led the remaining troops to retreat to the west without hesitation. However, the Asai family did not seem to have planned to let them leave easily, and the cavalry led by Isono Tomokazu chased after him. Seeing this, Matsunaga Hide threw down a unit again without hesitation. He led the main force away and retreated without looking back.

After the main force of the Matsunaga family evacuated, the more than 15oo people who stayed behind the Guanyin Temple Castle and the more than 15oo people who stayed to block the Asai Army were defeated without any suspense. Under the pursuit of the cavalry, almost no one could escape back to the mountain city, and were killed or captured in the territory of Nanojiang.

In the afternoon, the Tianshou Pavilion in Guanyin Temple City.

"Changzheng, why are you here?" Yu Qiuping saw the dusty Nagamasa Asai while wiping sweat, tilting his neck and drinking a large cup of water, and asked in a low voice: "Have your Highness the General allowed you to send troops?"

"No, Gongfang Palace is so angry because of my unauthorized actions." Asai Nagamasa shook his head apologetically, then nodded firmly and said, "But my brother is in danger. I can't sit idly by whether it is reasonable or not. Yesterday, after receiving my brother's request for help, I immediately led the troops out of Kogu Castle and finally caught up."

"Is this really good? Do the retainers have no objection?" Yu Qiuhei couldn't help but reminded him with some concern when he saw Nagamasa Asai's righteous look.

"The retainers are indeed unhappy. They think that the Oda family's troops should be the Oda family themselves. Anyway, the Oda family did not inform us before the surprise attack, which was considered a private action. Moreover, the Miyoshi family and the Matsunaga family are quite large. If they really fight together, the Asai family will be hurt." Asai Nagamasa repeated the views of the retainers, and then said in a somewhat disgusting tone: "They, they always think about interests, but they refuse to admit it. If I ask for reinforcements, they will suppress me with the righteousness of obedience of the Gongfang Temple - but this is just an excuse for them to escape morality. You are my brother, and the Oda family is my ally. How can I sit back and see if my allies are in trouble? I am just practicing the morality of a samurai."

"But violating the general's orders also violates the morality of a samurai..." Yu Qiuping noticed the contradiction in Asai Nagamasa's words.

"I know." Asai Nagamasa did not deny it after hearing this, but his expression became more and more firm: "The two righteousnesses are contradictory, and I only want to have a clear conscience. Giving up reinforcements is inevitable to consider the interests, but everyone is going to the danger and is devoted to the great justice. Since that is the case, I will choose the most difficult road."
