Chapter 99 Assassination

After Yu Qiuhei returned to the camp, it was already dark. Amano Keito suddenly stepped forward and then welcomed Yu Qiuhei into a separate small camp. There were only five generals in the battalion commander, Naoe Tadaehiro and Amano Keito. Even Hontaku Nosuke was asked to wait outside.

"Mysterious, what are you going to do?" Yu Qiuping asked curiously.

"Sir." Amano Keido pulled the account, lowered his voice, and gave Yu Qiuhei a small black bamboo tube.

"Just just now, an arrow suddenly shot at the two-way flags on the camp, which were tied to the arrow." Amano Keidu said in a deep voice, "It seems to be a secret letter."?

"Secret Letter? It's so unsafe. What should I do if I shoot the wrong one?" Yu Qiuping was stunned for a moment, opened the lid of the bamboo tube, and pulled out a note from it. The note was written in neat handwriting: I saw it at the Broken Bridge of Takigawa tonight. You are only allowed to come alone.

"What is it written?" Mimaezaki Nakahide saw Yu Qiuping's face solemn, and the first one couldn't help but ask.

"You can take it and see it." Yu Qiuping handed the note to Yu Qiuping, and everyone circulated it around, looking at Yu Qiuping with anticipation.

"Speaking of this, sir has mentioned before that the Ninjas were sent to the main hall of the family. Could it be them?" Naoe Tadaehiro asked.

"But it may also be a trap." Amano Keidu shook his head, "If it were a ninja of his family, why not show some tokens? Such as seals or something?"

"Maybe I'm afraid of ejaculation in the wrong place and being exposed?" said Fukushima Ansei.

"It's too dangerous." Yu Qiuping was the first to quit. "Why! I was asked to run over there alone at night, but I didn't know why I died? They would come over if they wanted to come to find me."

"The road up the mountain has been blocked." Naoe Tadaehiro said, "I heard Lord Imamiya build a checkpoint today and said that this is the only way to go up the mountain. The other sides of Aiying Mountain are rugged and steep, and they can't climb up at all."

"Then I won't go, I'll think I'm Kaizi!" Yu Qiuping snorted, "It's too dangerous. I'd better just write something on my letter! Why do you let me go!"

"Maybe it was because of the fear of the letter being picked up by others and causing the leak?" Fukushima Ahn guessed.

"Hey? Sir." Ogawa Yudong asked in a daze, "When working with the Takeda family, it's also very dangerous. Why, how did you agree? You don't dare to go no matter how you go?"

"When I cooperate with the Takeda family, I can use my own efforts to change the situation. Besides, have I analyzed it objectively?" Yu Qiuping shook his head, "This time it was a complete adventure. I can't do anything and leave it to fate. If I don't go, I won't go to death."

Yu Qiuping's attitude made everyone present laugh and cry. "Why are you doing those expressions?" Yu Qiuping muttered dissatisfiedly, "Didn't you say before that my safety is the top priority?"

"But..." Mimaezaki Nakahide wanted to persuade him again, he hesitated for a moment, and shook his head with a smile, "According to the plot in normal stories, shouldn't all samurai go to the meeting alone?"

"I won't go." Yu Qiuping made up his mind not to go, "Let him go."

On May 8, at 8 o'clock, the edge of the Takigawa Broken Bridge.

"Mr. Abe, no one is coming." A ninja ran back from the forest on the bank of the river and reported to a black-clothed ninja waiting by the broken bridge by the river. The latter frowned and looked towards the northeast with a cold expression.

"Kojiro, are you sure you have delivered the letter?" The ninja, known as Lord Abe, has asked Kojiro for the fifth time.

"Sir, I am really sent to you." Kojiro didn't know why Yu Qiuping didn't come. "I saw the flag of Eryan and shot arrows in, and saw someone picking it up."

"How do you know that the person you picked up is from the Imakawa family?" the leader asked.

"This... I dare not say it," Kojiro whispered, "I am afraid of being seen, so I hurriedly left."

"If Lord Yuqiu didn't receive the letter, it would be bad." The leader sighed, "The main hall of the family governor asked us to find Lord Yuqiu and obey Lord Yuqiu's command, but now we can't contact you at all."

"Let's look for it again. When it's ugly, there's no one yet, let's go back to the hidden place." The leader sighed and asked his subordinates to search again.

In the early morning of May 8, at 7 o'clock in the morning, Yu Qiuhei left Naoe Tadaehide and Ogawa Yudong to lead a squad to stay in the camp to protect Imamiya Ledeing's family. Today, Imamiya Ledeing himself was in charge of the heavens and let several capable troops go down to stay in the checkpoint. Yu Qiuhei then left Imamiya Castle, and the entire army was on guard to explore the southwest. Because it did not have the spears that everyone was familiar with, Yu Qiuhei was not very sure about the combat effectiveness of the army. It is estimated that the most stable combat effectiveness would depend on Charlie's archery team.

When Yu Qiuping left, he happened to see the Hojo family leaving the camp and walking towards the east, probably doing the same path exploration activity as himself. However, the Takeda family was not moving for a long time and didn't know what they were thinking about.

The group carefully avoided the forests and hills, where there were possible ambushing, and tried to walk on the plains with wide views. They simply made the weather beautiful. Today, the sky was clear and the visibility was extremely good. They were almost at the riverside, but there was still no sign of enemy movement, which made everyone feel a little relieved.

"If I had known it would be so smooth, I should have led the entire army directly to move. I should not have sent people to stay. I would have done it yesterday." Yoshigang Katsumasa shouted regretfully, "We can run back to Suruga directly, so there is no such trouble."

"Don't mention what happened yesterday," Yu Qiuping sighed, "So many of us have all been tricked to lure the tiger away from the mountain, and the food and grass were burned."

"Today I will not be able to draw the tiger away from the mountain." Yu Qiuping said, "The Takeda family seems to have no intention of moving. They are on the edge of the Imperial Palace City, and Lord Imperial Palace personally stationed at Imperial Palace City, and the subordinates have the right to guard the Imperial Palace City, which is definitely safe. The enemy does not even have a chance to go up the mountain!"

The group quickly advanced to the riverside of Takikawa, and in order to avoid the woods and hills, they specially spared the farthest road. The water flow in Takikawa was either very turbulent, or the deepest place might be about 1.5 meters. People of Yu Qiuping's height were acceptable, but many of his subordinates could not get through and could only swim.

Just as Yu Qiuping was thinking about weaving a bamboo raft in advance and putting it in the bamboo forest next to him. When he came tomorrow, a rapid sound of horse hooves suddenly rang behind him.

"Thompson! Guard!" Yu Qiuping was shocked. Did he actually come here from the way? Charlie Xun hid behind several bushes and stood in a row, bent his bow and arrows. The other three teenagers also drew their swords in their hands, looking nervously at the dust raised by the horse's hooves.

After a while, a rider rushed over, with no one behind him and no armor on his body, so everyone was relieved.

"Sir Yuqiu! Sir Yuqiu!" The man saw Yuqiuping from a distance and immediately shouted in tears. Yuqiuping recognized this. This was the flag-born warrior of Akamiya Leding, and his heart skipped a beat.

"My master! My master..." The samurai rushes to Yu Qiuping's side by horse, and after getting off the horse, he sits on the ground, staggers, stands up, runs over, and kneels in front of Yu Qiuping. All the samurai around him are nervously surrounded. Dozens of eyes are staring at the samurai samurai.

"What's wrong with Lord God! You're talking!" Yu Qiuping roared anxiously.

"Mr. Yuqiu must avenge my elders!" The samurai did not answer directly, but kowtowed three times on the hard ground, "My elders were killed by the thief!"

When Yu Qiuping rushed back to the Imperial Palace City anxiously, the people outside the Imperial Palace City had already received the news that the kind-hearted lord was assassinated, and there were crying in the town and the village outside.

"Is it so bad that I can't control the news of death?" Yu Qiuping complained secretly. He led his subordinates to the mountain along the mountain road, and the investigation troops of the Hojo family were blocked outside the checkpoint. The guardian leader on the checkpoint seemed to be Naoe Tadaehiro.

"Open the door quickly! Let's go in!" "Open the door! What does it mean!" The Hojo family's footmen quarreled to let Naoe Tadashi open the door, but Naoe Tadashi was unmoved. Standing beside him, it seemed that Imamiya Leding arranged for the uncle Imamiya Le'an to stay there, Imamiya Le'an.

"You must wait until my master's order before you can let any outsiders enter the city!" Naoe Tadaehiro refused without hesitation, "Please apologize."

At this moment, Naoe Tadaehide suddenly saw Yu Qiuping's troops going up the mountain at the foot of the mountain. The Hojo army in front of the checkpoint obviously noticed that the sages hurriedly asked their subordinates to make way and go to negotiate with Yu Qiuping himself.

"Sir Yuqiu, your subordinates blocked me outside the checkpoint! If something big happened, why don't you let me go in!" The sage and asked for a crime without saying a word.

"Don't blame me, Lord," Yu Qiuping waved his hand. "In critical moments, our enemies and our enemies are unknown. Be cautious of our subordinates, and I hope our subordinates will understand."

"So, can we go in now?" asked Yuheshi.

Yu Qiuping hesitated for a moment and asked for the ideas of his subordinates around him with his eyes. No one could figure out what to do at this moment, so he shook his head.

"Please wait for Lord Ye and Lord." Yu Qiuping, who was conservative and cautious, still did not plan to let Ye and Shi Xu enter the door immediately, "Go inside to find out the situation first."

The serk and the clan had to argue again, but Yu Qiuping had no time to pay attention to him. He led his subordinates to bypass the serk and the clank and passed under the iron fence. As soon as Yu Qiuping's troops passed, the serk was put down again, blocking the Hojo family's people outside.

After Yu Qiuhei entered, he immediately asked Amano Kyoto to replace Naoe Tadae and left behind the checkpoint, and brought Naoe Tadae to understand the situation.

"Let me tell me, what's going on?" Yu Qiuping asked hurriedly.

"Everything was normal. At the beginning of the Si-ō, suddenly there was a violent fight in the Tianshou Pavilion. Before the Xiaxiao reaction was made, the escaped Imamiya family had already told me that Imamiya was killed by a group of men in black." Naoe Tadai's face turned pale, "Imamiya hurriedly brought people to support, but all the men in black had been evacuated and disappeared. The people from the Takeda family who arrived first controlled the Tianshou Pavilion and the Dongcheng City Gate. Imamiya was worried that something would cause the adults to be unable to enter the city, so I asked Lord Ogawa to summon the remaining troops of Lord Imamiya to stay in the camp and protect the three families. And the Xiaxiao was leading 10 people to the level and took over the defense."

"It's done very well." Yu Qiuhei let out a long sigh. If Naoe Tadahei failed to react quickly, he would let the Takeda family or the Hojo family control the Imamiya family's defenders first. Now Yu Qiuhei is blocked outside.

"Where did the person who assassinated Lord Imamiya come from? Is the level lost?" Yu Qiuping asked in surprise.

"No, there is no abnormality at the level! No one passes the level!" Naoe Tadaehiro's voice trembled a little, "There are no ones who climb the guard posts around the cliffs."

"Who killed Lord Imamura! Who went there again!" Yu Qiuping was at a loss and cursed angrily, "Isn't this the only way up the mountain? No outsiders come in!"

"I am incompetent. I don't know who the enemy is." Naoe Tadae kneeled down suddenly, "Immiya Castle does not close the city gate during the day. I thought that guarding the checkpoint and not letting people in can ensure safety. So no one stopped the enemy from entering the city, nor did anyone notice their whereabouts. After that, the Takeda family controlled the Tianshou Pavilion, and they refused to share information with him."

"Who is it? How can I kill Lord Imagami in hundreds of people!" Yu Qiuping cursed angrily, "There are no foreign invaders! No one runs out! There is no one on the top of the mountain...." As he said that, he seemed to suddenly understand something.

If there are no outsiders entering and leaving, there will be no one else on the top of the mountain except the guards of the Imamiya family.
