"Lord, the Xia army has indeed attacked Shikoku Island. They have captured Omori Castle, Nakamura Castle and other cities, and are approaching our main city!"

"Xia's army is divided into two groups. The northern group's troops are sweeping across Kurose City and Tangzhu City. All cities are in danger!"

"It is rumored that the Great Xia Dynasty was selling 'indulgence coupons' on a large scale, confiscating land, detaining daimyo who could not pay, and all the city lords were bankrupted!"

"Call all the soldiers and horses immediately and gather them in Okafeng City. Don't be defeated one by one!"

The lord of Oka Toyo Castle, Nagasogabe Motochin, broke out in a cold sweat.

Chu Wu and Su Lie each led a team of soldiers and horses, advancing crazily along the two mountain roads in the north and south.

The small towns on Shikoku Island could not reach tens of thousands of elite troops to attack, and they fell one after another.

What frightened Chang Zonggabu Yuanqin and these retainers the most was the measures taken by the Daxia Dynasty, which not only confiscated the territory, but also blackmailed various daimyo and samurai, causing them to go bankrupt, the daimyo became commoners, and the samurai became rogues. It was difficult for the daimyo to stand high in front of the tenant farmers.

"If you don't want to lose your land, gold and silver, then the city lords of all cities must bring their troops to assemble in Okafeng City!"

Xia Jun's actions further strengthened Changzong's determination to resist.

The Honmaru, Ninomaru, and Sannomaru of Oka Toyo Castle are all closed and heavily guarded, with watchmen patrolling the streets.

Half of Shikoku Island had been captured, and it took Chu Wu and Su Lie no more than a day to capture a city.

More than a dozen small city lords arrived at Gangfeng City, and each of them looked unhappy. It could even be said that they were quite ugly.

On the way to Oka Toyo Castle, they learned that the lords and samurai of Omori Castle and Kurose Castle were not only imprisoned by their subordinates, but also had their lands confiscated and their fortunes ruined. The original stable order of the entire Shikoku Island , completely crushed.

Motochika Chosogabu received the castle lords of Shikoku Island at the castle tower. The atmosphere was solemn, as if they were facing a formidable enemy - no, they were indeed facing a formidable enemy.

A city lord said: "Lord, we should ask for reinforcements from the daimyo of Honshu Island. The population of Honshu Island is dozens of times ours. Only daimyo such as Oda, Takeda, and Tokugawa can save us from fire and water."

Another city lord said: "For the sake of justice and land, we can humbly ask Oda Nobunaga for help. At least Oda Nobunaga will not go so far and want to take away all the land, and he will not force us to buy the so-called 'atonement'. They took the initiative to call us, so why are we the ones guilty?"

All the city lords nodded.

The Xia army took the initiative to attack the four Japanese islands, but instead asked the Japanese lords to bear the cost of the war.

The Yuanqin of our department, Chang Zong, said in a deep voice: "It is a sin to be weak and defecate, so the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit."

"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit..."

The city lords were speechless.

"The daimyo of Honshu Island cannot protect themselves. Oka Toyo Castle has Ninomaru and Sannomaru, as well as defensive means such as arrow towers, stones, kerosene, trenches, horse barriers, fences, and parapets. It also has the largest population. Everyone, With our troops gathered in this city, there is still a slight possibility that we can defend our territory."

With a population of 100,000 and a population of 100,000, Chosogabu Motochin controlled the Shikoku Island with a population of one million. He was considered a promising daimyo. He knew that no one could rely on him at this time and could only rely on Shikoku Island's own military strength.

Defend the city.

A samurai rushed into the meeting of the city lords in a hurry: "My lord, the vanguard of the Xia army has arrived at Tosa Shrine. They burned the shrine and threatened that if Oka Toyo Castle does not surrender, the fate will be the same as Tosa Shrine!"

"What?!"

The Yuanqin of the Changzong Division and a dozen small city lords stood up one after another.

Xia Jun was aggressive and did not follow the rules of the four Japanese islands. He directly burned the ancient Tosa Shrine to demonstrate to the city lords of Shikoku Island.

Oka Toyo Castle is the headquarters of Chosōga's tribe. It has assembled the main force of Shikoku Island. Attacking Oka Toyo Castle may cause the Xia army to lose more than a thousand people and waste some time. The Xia army began to intimidate, intending to use Conquer Shikoku Island faster.

After hearing that the Xia army's pioneers burned down the thousand-year-old shrine, Chosougabu Motochin and other castle lords immediately came to the top of the castle tower and looked to the west where Tosa Shrine was.

Sure enough, there was fire to the west, and thick smoke from when the shrine was burned was rising.

This is Xia Jun's warning.

Many city lords were sweating profusely.

"Perhaps, this will be a hard battle..."

Changzong Gabu Yuanqin fell into silence.

At Tosa Shrine, Yang Xingmi, the pioneer military commander, ordered the shrine to be burned down to demonstrate against Oka Toyo Castle.

The Black Cloud Long Sword Army holds torches, and the firelight is reflected on the armor of the Black Cloud Long Sword Army. All of them are evil.

The ancient Tosa Shrine was burned down, and the smoke billowed so thickly that the black smoke from the burning Tosa Shrine could be seen in Oka Toyo Castle to the east.

Yang Xingmi's threats were more or less effective. Both the daimyo and the samurai in Okafeng City were in panic and their morale was low.

"Enter Oka Toyo Castle!"

Yang Xingmi led the Black Cloud Long Sword Army, and after setting fire to the Tosa Shrine, they immediately marched towards Oka Toyo Castle.

With the Tosa Shrine reduced to ashes as the background, the black cloud sword army was like a black cloud pressing down on the city, which intensified the panic of the defenders of Oka Toyo Castle.

The city lords and people of the entire Shikoku Island were all horrified.

The Xia army was devastated, and wherever they went, countless warriors were called prisoners of their subordinates. Anyone who dared to resist was killed. The land was confiscated, indulgences were sold, and a large amount of gold and silver was collected.

"The Xia army is approaching the city!"

"All samurai and ashigaru go to the wall and defend Okafyo Castle!"

"Idiot, hurry up, if you don't want to lose your land and all your family wealth, don't hold anything back!"

The retainers of Chosoga's tribe urged all samurai who owned territory to contribute.

For them, defeat is not just as simple as losing their personal lives. The entire family will go bankrupt and will no longer be the best.

"This is... the Black Cloud Long Sword Army of the Central Plains!"

Chosame Gabu Motochin recognized the Xia army vanguard who burned Tosa Shrine, and his expression was not very good.

Chutian recruited Yang Xingmi and Yang Xingmi's special unit, the Black Cloud Long Sword Army, during the national war. As enemies, the Japanese daimyo were no strangers to this. At this time, the Black Cloud Long Sword Army appeared in Okafeng. Under the city, and is about to attack Okafeng Castle.

"I don't know if I am capable of defeating the Black Cloud Long Sword Army with my defensive skills?"

The palms of Changzonggabu Motochin's hands were sweating.

The special military unit of Chosonggabu is "one with one command", but Chosonggabu Yuanqin has no confidence at all.

Yang Xingmi arrived at Gangfeng City and had already begun to build siege equipment and was waiting for Chu Wu's arrival.

"If we capture Okafeng Castle before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince arrives, we will achieve great feats. The Black Cloud Long Sword Army will obey the order and attack Okafeng Castle immediately tomorrow. We must capture this city as soon as possible!"
