After Yu Qiuping's command took away all the costumes and various ninja tools from the attacker's corpse, he almost evacuated the village. As for how the people in the village would deal with the corpses and houses, Yu Qiuping didn't care. If the enemy was really the famous Wind Demon Ninjas in the Warring States Period, it would be extremely dangerous to stay outside for a moment. Who knows whether those dozens of people would make a comeback with more companions?
By the time Yu Qiuping returned to Immiya Castle, it was already evening. He could see from afar that the checkpoint on the mountain road was about to be completed. What surprised him was that the people from the Takeda family seemed to be talking to another caravan outside the castle. Immiya Leding led many people to be on guard on the mountain road.
Yu Qiuhei then led his subordinates to the scene of the conversation. The two brothers Sanada Nobutsu and Sanada Masayuki seemed to be talking to a young man. When Yu Qiuhei arrived, he happened to hear Masayuki Sanada asked.
"I wonder how old this boss is this year?"
"This year 2o." The new boss replied cheerfully, "I took over my father's caravan in Sagami."
"That's it." Masayuki Sanada raised his eyebrows and stretched out his hand with a smile: "Master Yuwashi, please give me some advice."
Yu Qiuping saw the sudden contraction of the pupils of the Shishi Shi Su, and laughed, "Sir, I was also trapped in this way yesterday." This sentence seemed to be helping the Shishi Shi Su Su, but in fact it was standing on Masayuki Sanada, hinting that the Shishi Shi Su Su Su Su Su, don't pretend, we all know.
The corners of Yuhe Shixu's mouth twitched twice, and shook his head helplessly.
"Looking at the reaction of the two adults, I guess they are from the Takeda family and Imakawa family. It is estimated that the same task as the one in the Xia family." Yukawa Shisu did not hide it. "He is here to investigate the missing contact in the Shimoto Hojo family." He held the hand that Masayuki Sanada reached out with his left hand, and his right hand stretched towards Yu Akihei, "I don't know the names of the two?"
"Sir," Yu Qiupi held his hand and smiled, "That adult and I guessed each other. If you want to know our identity, you need to exchange it for some information." Although he said this, he was very alert. So the Hojo family brought not many people, only fifty. The number of people outside the Sanada family is probably more than seventy, so it is still okay to suppress him. He was afraid that the ninjas in the Wind Demon Ninja suddenly appeared.
"So that," Yukashi Shisu was not dragging on the slut. "Our ninjas investigated the intelligence of Surugashi and Fujishi, but no powerful local forces have participated in the ambush of the messenger." Yu Qiuhei was silently digesting this information. Now that the Uesugi family and the powerful local forces have been ruled out... Speaking of which, why do these two families have ninja intelligence support, but I have nothing?
"So, two, tell me your names?" Yukashi looked at Yuqiehei and Masayuki Sanada, who had already vaguely replaced his brother as the head of the Takeda family.
"It's raining Qiuping." Yu Qiuping whispered. Anyway, it won't be hidden for long, so it's better to tell him.
"In Shimo Sanada Nobusuka." "In Shimo Sanada Masayuki."
"Master Yuqiu, Master Sanada. I don't know what information you have collected, but I am willing to cooperate with you." Yuheshi continued sincerely.
Yu Qiuhei and Sanada Masayuki looked at each other.
"The most useful information we have collected so far is-" Sanada Masayuki said with a lengthening tone.
"The Hojo family is likely to be the mastermind of this attack." Yu Qiuhei smiled.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the three families' teenagers held their weapons one after another, as if they would be tense in the next moment.
"What do you two mean?" Yuhe asked in a deep voice unhappily, "Don't let the empty talk and be innocent."
"There is no evidence in the air, but there is evidence in the lower body." Yu Qiuhei asked his subordinates to bring the seized sachets and Fengmoli-style ninja tools and clothes, and carefully paid attention to the expression of Yu Qiuhei. The latter was stunned for a moment and handed back these things back to Yu Qiuhei. "Can this tell me that it is the Hojo family? It is very likely that it is someone else's disguise." Yu Qiuhei shook his head, "To be honest, I was also attacked by a horse-riding samurai on the road with full furniture in Imakawa and a horse-riding samurai who was wearing full furniture in Imakawa and relying on the flag of the Imakawa family." Yu Jiahei clapped his hands, and the few feet behind him raised the blood-stained Imakawa family.
Yu Qiuping suddenly became angry, "I think it was you who attacked our messenger!" He pulled his sword out of the sheath in anger, "Do you still have any reason?"
With Yu Qiuping's actions, his subordinates behind him also drew their swords and unsheathed them. Charlie and the archers also drew their arrows and looked at the people of the Hojo family vigilantly. Seeing this, the people of the Hojo family and Takeda family were also on guard.
"What's wrong?" Yukawa Shizu did not draw his sword, and looked coldly at Yu Qiuhei's samurai sword with a cold light in his hand. "Do Imakawa and Takeda families want to attack their allies?"
"Hojo Palace hasn't explained it clearly to you?" Yu Qiuhei smiled, "We are just businessmen on this trip. I am the boss Saburo, and he is the boss Taro," he pointed to Sanada Nobuzuo beside him, and looked at Shiwashi Shisu, "You are just a sage boss."
"Killing you is just a private fight between the caravans and has nothing to do with the three alliances." Masayuki Sanada forced him, "How is it, are you willing to explain?"
"Those things are all sagama," Shi Shisuo slowly drew his sword in his hand, "but the Hojo family did not order the attack on the messenger. If you must wrongly accuse the Hojo family, you can only accompany them to the end."
"Neither the Uesugi family nor the local forces were the planners." Masayuki Sanada looked at the two of them, "That is to say, the mastermind behind the scenes is between us three."
"One of the three people must be lying." Masayuki Sanada snorted coldly, "Then..."
Suddenly, a huge commotion broke out among the towns on the west side of the field, and many residents shouted in horror, interrupting the confrontation between Yuqiu-hei and others. Imamiya Leding hurriedly led the people over, Yuqiu-hei, Sanada Masayuki, and Yu-hesu also rushed over with a few attendants.
I saw people around the entrance of the village for several rounds. Everyone tiptoed to look inside. The discussion and amazement made the scene very noisy. When Yu Qiuping tried hard to squeeze into the circle, suddenly Imamiya Leding, who had arrived one step earlier, stood there, staring blankly and without saying a word.
"Sir Imamiya, what's wrong..." Yu Qiuping took two steps forward and was also frightened by the scene in front of him, and his voice stopped abruptly.
I saw a big pit in the center of the circle, and there was still a lot of digging of soil around it. The soil was dark and had no moisture loss. It seemed that it had just been dug out.
In the pit, there were three corpses and a black crow's corpse - the one from Amano Keito. Blood was still oozing in the chest of the crow. One of the corpses of the three people was the younger brother sent by Amamiya Leding to report the news. The three corpses were still slightly bleeding, and it seemed that they had just died not long ago.
"Is another dead?" Amano Keidu arrived here for some time. After whispering, he bent down and picked up the dead crow.
However, Yu Qiuhei was not as calm as Amano Keito, but fell into deep fear. So even when Amamiya Ryoda was crying and carrying away his brother's body, he didn't notice it.
The messenger I sent was intercepted and the crow I sent was intercepted.
The interception of the messenger can also be explained by the fact that someone was lying there, why was the crow intercepted? Is my every move completely monitored?
After a while, at the request of Imami Leding, the crowd gradually dispersed. After Imami Leding arranged his younger brother's incident, he also rushed over. Only three investigation troops and Imami Leding's people were left next to the pit.
"Who are these two people?" Yu Qiuping pointed to the other two corpses.
"The one on the left is Shisuke. I sent the person who sent the order back to the Kazusaki-kan." Sanada Nobusuka said with a heavy expression.
"There is another person I have arrived in front of Imamiya and sent back to Odawara to pass on the orders." Yuheshi said in a low voice.
"Why do these corpses appear here?" Imamiya Leding endured the huge grief and asked a villager in a deep voice.
"Caomin, Caomin..." The resident was obviously scared and said tremblingly, "Caomin originally wanted to burn the moldy millet, so he dug a hole here by the field. Caomin went back to the warehouse to get the millet for a while, and then came back, and these corpses were added here. Caomin was so scared that he screamed, and everyone surrounded him."
Everyone fell into silence for a moment. It must be the mastermind behind the scenes who attacked the three messengers and messenger crows everywhere, and then they unconsciously put them in this pit and demonstrated to the investigators.
"Let me go to the road I have walked! Let me die clearly!" The Lord God suddenly said loudly, "You guys are willing to go together!"
"I have to check it out too!" Sanada Nobuzu cursed, "Who dares to intercept my messenger! Then go to the road where Lord Imamiya sent the soldiers first!"
In order to prevent accidents, the group pulled out all the troops. A group of hundreds of people headed towards Suruga and went to Takigawa first. However, when they arrived at Takigawa, Yu Qiuhei and Imamiya Leding were shocked.
The bridge that was originally crossing Takigawa had been demolished, and no more boats were found on Takigawa. They searched along the river bank, and several other bridges were demolished. Everyone waited on a small hill, and the bridges on the tributary to the west of Takigawa had disappeared. Someone must have destroyed all traffic. Imamiya Leding's death was probably the same as these people.
Everyone walked northeast again to explore the communication route of Takeda's family. When they arrived at the middle of the narrow path, everyone was surprised to find that the originally unobstructed path had been blocked by the woods and rolling stones that had been transported to when they were transported.
"I guess the situation is the same on our side." Yuhe Shi Xu said with a gloomy face, "There are several bridges on the way we come, and I guess they are not spared."
"All communication soldiers were intercepted and all bridges and roads leading to the outside world were blocked." Yu Qiuping's face turned pale, "We have completely lost contact with the outside world. Are we going to be trapped here?"
"Sir Imamura, how much food do you have in stock?" Yu Qiuping suddenly asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, Lord Yuqiu." The god of the palace, who had just suffered the pain of losing his brother, was always kind and smiling, but his face was gloomy at this moment. "There are enough emergency food for hundreds of people in the Tianshou Pavilion. There are several granaries in the villages at the foot of the mountain, which store the food from last year's autumn harvest, which is enough for us to eat for several months."
"That's good." Yu Qiuping breathed a sigh of relief. If he was trapped here, it would be too miserable.
Before he finished speaking, suddenly, a few thick smoke ignited in the sky in the southwest.
"Then - it's the direction of the village!" Imamiya Leding was shocked, "Hurry! Let's go back!"
However, before everyone could rush back, several of the Imamura messengers were sad and riding horses. When they were far away, they shouted out loudly, "Sir! Not good! Not good!"
