Chapter eight hundred and thirty-two downsizing to break through
Sibo Yiyin asked with a pleasant look.
"Lord Jiang Ma, the war situation is changing rapidly, and it is not convenient for me to go back with you.
I intend to return to the army and march north along the Zhuang River to break out of the encirclement. Can you replenish military supplies for me?"
Jiang Ma is so prosperous.
"I can get the food together at the imperial office, but I'm afraid I won't be able to get all the weapons and horses."
Jiang Ma's family only has a body of several thousand dan, and Yiyin's cavalry has one man and two horses. It needs to be supplemented by a hundred war horses, as well as so many swords, guns, bows and arrows, and pockets and horse gear. How could Jiang Ma Huisheng be able to get it together?
Even after clearing out the army she brought, we still couldn't get rid of these things. The family's financial resources were so small that they could barely squeeze in food, but there was really nothing else they could do.
The Jiangma family's military strength is not weak, and the mountain people are tough. Even the ashigaru are more daring to fight and kill than the people outside the mountains. The Jiangma family is really in trouble, and it is not impossible to gather 2,000 people to fight.
But this time, Ema Huisheng only came to support Uesugi Teruhu as a favor, and did not bring much military strength.
The Etsuchu Ichikai clan is weak compared to the Uesugi family, but compared to the Ema family, it is a behemoth, and Ema Huisheng is not willing to offend him to death.
It is the best way to take Shiba Yiyin to Hida and transfer it through the road. No one will be offended.
But Sibo Yiyin insisted on fighting back and went back to Zhuangchuan. Jiang Mahuisheng really couldn't say anything about vowing to follow him to the death.
Sibo Yiyin saw through the Jiang Ma family's position, so he proposed to replenish supplies and turn around to fight again.
But even with this request, the Jiang Ma family's weak financial background cannot support it.
Jiang Ma Huisheng thought for a while and said.
"Odaisuo, Toga Village is to the north, following the Sho River out of the mountains. To the east is Higashiyamami Village, and to the west is Inami Town.
If you want to go back to Fufu County, I am willing to send troops to attack Jingbo Town to attract enemy troops for you.
You lead the cavalry directly to break through Higashiyamami Village and walk north along the east bank of Shochuan River. After passing Mitani, you will reach Masuyama Castle."
Jiangma Huisheng was very sincere when it came to this matter. Jiangma's family didn't need to get involved, but she was still willing to go out to fight against Yi Xiangzong to attract the enemy's attention.
There are mountains behind Jiang Ma Huisheng, and he can escape at any time. This can be regarded as helping Si Bo Yiyin and protecting himself.
Even if he offends Xiang Zong, he can still stop all activities and refuse to admit that it was the Jiang Ma family's behavior afterwards, pretending to be stupid.
Sibo Yiyin shook his head and said.
"Zengshan Castle was captured by Ichigo Sect before, and most of the Mitani area is strictly guarded against deadlock and will not give me any room to escape.
How about this, you attack Higashimiyama Village to get the enemy's attention for me. I'll go to Inami Town and break through to the outside."
Jiang Ma Huisheng hesitated.
“If we break through to the west, won’t we sink deeper and deeper?
The cavalry is exhausted and there are not enough horses. If we are trapped deep in Tonami County, it will be difficult to get out."
Yiyin smiled and said.
"I just want to escape, not to fight for Yi Xiangzong. I don't need to take eighty or ninety people back. Twenty or thirty riders are enough.
Gather the horses together and ride three people per person. Even if the horses are tired, taking turns riding them is enough for me to make a circuitous route. If I go far away and then take a detour, it is just taking Ixiang Zong in circles, there is no danger."
Jiang Ma Huisheng thought for a moment and nodded.
"The imperial court is wise."
Naomasa Ii, who was next to him, felt nervous and looked at Yoshigan Shiba.
Sure enough, Yiyin said softly.
"Naomasa, please don't go. Together with the remaining Hime warriors, go to Hida Kingdom along the Shogawa River and take the road back to Shinkawa County."
Under Yoshiyin's soft gaze, Ii Naomasa's eyes turned red. She tried not to shed tears in front of others, but she also did not say a word.
Jiangma Huisheng knew that it was inappropriate for him to be there, so he bowed to Sibo Yiyin and left first.
Only the Shiba family's Hime warriors were left in the house, besides Ii Naomasa, there were also several members of the Kamao clan and the Toshin clan.
Kawada Nagachi and others were resting next door. The people present were all Yoshigami's own subordinates, so he was only a little naked when he spoke.
"I plan to take twenty people out of the mountain, and the others will retreat with the Ema family and leave Hida Country to return to Shinkawa County.
Don't argue with me. I'm very tired and don't have the energy to talk nonsense. Just listen.
You can't leave Pu Sheng's Township. Pick five capable people from the Tongxin Group to accompany me in the battle."
Pu Sheng clan bowed to accept the order.
In the past few days, the Tongxin people have lost seven Ji warriors. These people were all carefully selected by her, and she would be lying if she said she didn't feel sad.
Shiba Yiyin wanted to preserve the vitality of the people of the same heart, so he only took her with five people, and the Kamao clan had no objection.
Anyway, she and her master share life and death. If Yi Gin dies in the battle, the village of Kamou clan will not want to live anymore. As long as she takes herself with her, it doesn't matter whether others go or not.
Just as Shiba Yiyin said, the Yixiang Zong army outside the mountain was in the tens of thousands. The cavalry were only fleeing for their lives, not fighting, so it was useless to have too many people.
Ii Naomasa frowned and said nothing. Yiyin looked at her helplessly, and his right hand had already touched her little head.
"Ever since I took on my nickname, I have been making my own decisions all day long. Now that I have become a Yuanfu and a Ji warrior, can't I just listen to my lord's words?"
Ii Naomasa's tears finally flowed down. She raised her head, looked at Yoshigan Shiba, who was much taller than her, and choked out.
"I know that I am weak and a burden. The Lord is right not to take me.
Although I have been with you for less than half a year, these six months have been the happiest days of my life.
Your mind is thoughtful, your wisdom and courage are unparalleled in the world, but you are always at a disadvantage because of your benevolence.
Imperial Court, the world is in chaos now, and there is no war between humanity and justice. Please think more about yourself and worry less about others.
If you could be more cruel, I would feel at ease even if I die now."
Being accused of weakness by a half-year-old child, Yiyin was angry and funny. Just looking at her pure childish look, it was difficult to refute.
Yiyin picked up the bowl and took a sip of water to moisten his throat. The boiling water that was hot to his mouth just now was now at just the right temperature.
"Naomasa, what do you think people live for?
The Wu family longs for a prosperous family business, and merchants want to earn more money. Even rural women hope that the fields will produce more food and receive less land tax.
What about me? I'm a bit pretentious, just like the husband you are whispering about behind your back.
I hope that wherever I look, there is no ugliness. I hope that the people I care about can live well and not die unexpectedly.
To revive the Sibo family, I was so selfish that I wanted to survive. But now I have you, and everyone, so many people shed their blood and died on the battlefield for my Sibo family without regret.
You say, can I be unkind?
Human life is not a piece of cake, and I am not a stone-hearted person. I cannot see you suffering. I hope you can all be happy."
Shiba Yiyin was already emotional as he talked. He came to this world and followed the crowd just to save his life. The Wu family society is cannibal and has no humanity.
Either become a standard martial artist, or be eliminated as an outlier. He wants to live, not die, so he wants to become a martial artist.
But the morality of his previous life has always tortured him. He can only view the world from the perspective of a game, so as not to collapse his spiritual world due to moral accusations.
However, he is not a robot, he has a heart, and he has feelings. Her followers follow her loyally, and many bastards secretly want to have sex with him.
Could he really not care about them at all? Did he just treat this all as a game?
After two years of fighting, he was used to seeing life and death. Even a cold stone had to be warmed. What's more, he was a human being, a modern person with humanity.
He wants to live, but he has more cares and bonds, so he is willing to fight for them.
Just because he didn't want to let down this hard-won friendship.
