The day after recruiting Yoshimasa Tanaka as a retainer, Zong Qing felt a little confused. He had been back to Haijin City for three days, and the Norida battle had ended for three days. Logically speaking, the 450 players transferred from Haijin City at this time should have come back long ago. Why didn't they come back at this time? This is really worrying.

Since Joseph Choe went out to inquire about information for his family yesterday, Zong Qing now only hopes that he can find out some news as soon as possible and then come back to report.

The reason why the Hexao Army has not returned for a long time is that it was caused by Zong Qing. He led the Ninja Army to launch an assault on Guanyin Temple Castle three days ago, which made the Hexao Army much worse than in history. Originally, it was supposed to be that the original formation was attacked by Nagamasa Asai, but in fact, because he had ordered the rear formation to retreat with the original formation, not only was the opponent defeated, but even the rear formation could not escape the fate of defeat.

Asai Nagamasa, seeing that the other party had been completely defeated, he did not choose to return to Oguchi Castle as in history, but wanted to expand the results of the battle, so he kept following the Hexao Army to chase after it. Since the Hexao Army's main force was peasant soldiers, it was impossible to organize effective resistance after the defeat, or it was impossible to resist any more. Therefore, the Asai Army following them not only crossed Aichikawa, but even Asai Nagamasa also led his army to the outside of Guanyin Temple Castle.

This is the first time the Asai family has attacked Aichikawa since its establishment and launched an attack on Guanyin Temple Castle. Fortunately, Zongqing did not prevent fire in Guanyin Temple Castle that day, so he gave the Heika family the opportunity to enter the city to defend. Otherwise, this time the Heika family would not be as simple as the failure of the joint battle. The 450 people from Haijin City also followed him into Guanyin Temple Castle at that time, so they failed to return to Haijin City as soon as possible after the defeat of the Heika army.

After all, Guanyin Temple City is a world-famous city, so Asai Nagamasa failed to make any achievements for two consecutive days. Moreover, the thousands of Hexao Family Flags in the city were no longer as panicked as before, so in the end they had to retreat and give up all the land they just obtained and still defend the border with Saheyama Castle.

It’s not that Asai Nagamasa did not want these lands, but that he could not take them away at all. Or even if he took them away now, he would not rule for long. The strength of the Hexao family is not comparable to that of the Asai family. As long as the other party recovers, the Hexao family can be taken back at any time. After all, Inugashi County is similar to Takashima County, and there is really no strong city to serve as a barrier to block the opponent’s attack. With the strength of the Asai family, these places cannot be defended at all.

Seeing that the Asai army outside the city had retreated, Yoshikino in the city was relieved and couldn't help but be furious. The reason why our family failed this time was not because of the attack on Guanyin Temple Castle. So when the Asai army just retreated, he immediately summoned all the important officials in the city to the evaluation room. This matter must be investigated clearly no matter what. Although he lost not much money, in fact, due to the failure of this joint battle, the Heijiao family lost more than just a few thousand s of copper coins.

As soon as the retainers sat in the evaluation room, Hexaki Yoshien said furiously: "Hello Yamaaka Toshi, tell me who was sneaking into Guanyin Temple Castle when his family fought with the Asai family and said!"

The reason why he asked Yamaakatsushi as soon as he came up was because his family had told him that except for a young samurai who came to sneak attack Guanyin Temple, the others were dressed in ninjas. Since they were ninjas, they naturally had to ask Yamaakatsushi, who was also a ninja.

Yamaaka Toshiya had already known that the lord was asking about this matter, so just after the Asai Army retreated yesterday, he had already sent his ninjas to inquire. Not to mention that although he had not found the main master, he found clues. Seeing that the lord asked him with a bad face, he hurriedly bowed and said, "Go back to the lord, my subordinates had sent someone to investigate yesterday. My subordinates received the news that just before the two families fought together, a village in Koga began to move as a whole, and yesterday my subordinates went to check it out. As the newspaper said, the other party had indeed moved away from Koga. If my subordinates were probably good, the one who attacked Guanyin Temple City should be the one who attacked the ninjas in this village."

"Whose village belongs to? Where are the people going now? Find them out for me. I will tear them to pieces!" When Yoshihiro Heikao had found the main master, his anger became even stronger. He saw him clenching his fists.

But the lord's question really made Toshika Yamaaka feel a little embarrassed. He didn't know where this person went. Moreover, now there are refugees everywhere in the world. As long as they don't want to follow, it will not be easy to find them as long as they leave. However, although they can't find these people, he still knows who the village is, so he quickly answered: "Lord, the leader of this ninja village is named Shigekashiro. This person has always loved money as his life, and it is reasonable to do such a thing, but... because the incident happened suddenly, he really didn't know where he went with the people under his rule. However, if his subordinates guessed well, the sneak attack of his family and his city would definitely not be related to Asai Nagamasa."

He said nothing wrong with this. When the two families were fighting, their city was attacked. Just thinking about it, he knew that it must have been done by Asai Nagamasa, and the other party did this. After all, the Hexaku family is more than twice as powerful as the Asai family. If the other party doesn't steal the city, they will have to wait to die. So when Yamaakashi Toshi finished speaking, Hexaku Yoshien and other retainers present nodded to express their agreement.

But Yoshi-hyun Heikao was not a fool. When he was about to accept this statement, he suddenly remembered that after he entered the city, the three barrels of turbulent oil had been placed at the door of Tianshou Pavilion. If it were really done by the Asaki family, it would be impossible for Asaki Nagamasa to burn the city and completely cut off the family's retreat.

So he just heard him say, "Then I'll ask you, since it was done by Asai Nagamasa, why didn't he prevent fire from burning the city, but just rob funds?"

"This... Please forgive my subordinates for being stupid."

"Where are you!" Seeing that Toshihiro Yamaakana could not answer, Rokaku Yoshien stopped asking him, but asked the other retainers present.

Not to mention, this problem really stumped them. If Asai Nagamasa had hired a ninja, he would not have given up burning the city at the last moment.
