my weird life.

Chapter 441 Surrounded (12)

In the night before dawn,
The sound of horseshoes is urgent.

There are more than [-] warriors with club-shaped hair buns or shaved moon-like heads, surrounded by dozens of strong horses, and galloping in the night.

Most of the riders on strong horses are covered with leather armor, and there are four or five people in the middle wearing "big armor", and the spade-shaped front of the helmet is majestic.

Several generals wearing the 'big armor' armor vaguely surrounded a general with a big armor that was not much different from the surrounding people, but slightly petite, and protected him all the time.

Apart from the fact that this general is a little smaller than the surrounding generals,

The sinister mask covering his face is also quite different from the people around him.

——It was a dragon-shaped mask covered with fine scales, which looked majestic and profound.

The general led the reins of the strong horse and ran with the army.

The sound of armor colliding resounded in the darkness.

Behind the horse driven by the general, a warrior wearing simple leather armor drove the horse. On the side of the saddle of the strong horse he was riding, hung a square bamboo cage not much bigger than the palm of an adult.

The cage door is open,

in the dark,
Suddenly there was the sound of a bird flapping its wings——

fluttering...

A bright white 'little bird' flew across the night sky and landed very accurately in the small bamboo cage on the side of the saddle.

Seeing this, the samurai hurriedly closed the cage door, and then rode his horse to catch up to the petite general's mount in front of him.

"General!"

He shouted in a deep voice.

The petite general in front reined in his horse.

Seeing this, the surrounding generals issued orders one after another.

The hundreds of warriors marching forward with the generals in their arms, under this order after order, slowly stopped behind a dense forest.

The petite general turned to look at the samurai approaching behind him with a 'crane cage' on his horse.

While offering the crane cage in his hand, the warrior said, "General, there is news about the paper crane!"

The general whose face was covered by the majestic white dragon mask nodded slightly, opened the crane cage, and took out the 'white bird' inside - the bird was originally a paper crane made of paper, not a real bird!
He disassembled the paper crane, and the aura on the paper dissipated,
The words on it emerged.

The 'general', who had been tense and majestic from the beginning to the end, seemed to relax slightly after reading the news of the paper crane, and a clear and sweet female voice came out of her mouth: "Zhuzhao's elder sent back News!"

She spoke clearly, making sure that her voice reached the ears of every retainer warrior in the darkness.

Needless to say her identity,

It is the current head of the Inoue family - Haruko Inoue!
All the retainers and warriors stood silently upon hearing the sound.

Although they didn't have any obvious reaction, they could really feel that after Haruko said that sentence, everyone's breath became tense.

"He agrees with our plan to attack Bizen Country!"

There was also a slight sense of excitement in Haruko's voice.

It was a sense of joy that after unremitting efforts, I was finally recognized.

After speaking, she lowered her head and carefully looked at the handwriting on the page. After confirming that it was Su Wu's handwriting, she handed it to a general on her right who was also wearing a large armor.

General 'Mikami Taro' glanced down at the writing on the paper,
Immediately, he echoed: "Miss Haruko's decision is not a problem, even Zhuzhao's family has agreed to this action!"

Several armored generals around looked at Haruko who was standing on the horse.

Following Ms. Haruko, she left her home and ran all the way to Bizen to defeat the 'Kimura Clan'. During the whole night's long journey, Ms. Haruko has never stopped for a moment. Wearing the same heavy and cumbersome armor as them, she persisted to the end. Now!
Even they are a little tired now,
The lady from your family never complained.

This has already proved Miss Haruko's courage.

This persistence alone made retainers such as Mikami Taro and Takeda Nobuo look at him with admiration.

Not to mention that the elders of Zhuzhao's family are now sending back news to support Miss Haruko's decision.

It also shows that Ms. Haruko is not only courageous, but also quite talented. Even Zhuzhao's family thinks there is no problem with her raid plan!

Nobuo Takeda's eyes moved slightly, he looked at Miss Haruko on the horse, and said solemnly: "General, the warriors have been marching continuously all night, and everyone is tired now, can you allow everyone to take a rest now?

After an hour, continue on? "

If Miss Haruko hadn't personally witnessed Miss Haruko beheading the onmyoji sent by Bizen Guoshou and decapitating the enemy, Nobuo Takeda had already made a claim and ordered the samurai to repair it on the spot, and would only ask Miss Haruko symbolically.

At the moment, he took the initiative to return the decision-making power to Haruko.

"That's exactly what I mean." Haruko nodded, "Let the sentries from all around come back.

We fix it on the spot for an hour. "

"Yes!"

All the military officials nodded at the same time.

Haruko sat on the horse's back, took a deep breath, and her whole body suddenly tensed up—the bones and flesh all over her body were extremely sore because of her tense figure!

She gripped the reins tightly, turned over and jumped off the strong horse.

Some sweat slipped down the gap of the 'White Dragon Mask' on the face.

A samurai approached and pulled Haruko's horse,

All the warriors received the general's order, and most of them sat around cross-legged, carefully took out the dry food they carried with them, and began to eat slowly.

They moved lightly and did not dare to make too much noise.

Once the noise is a little louder, the boss will immediately reprimand in a low voice.

Haruko stood on the spot and moved her body lightly,

She dared not sit on the ground,
Driving a strong horse for a whole night, and wearing heavy armor, even though she is taking the medicinal soup left by Su Wu every day, she can't bear such strenuous exercise for a while.

Once Haruko sat on the ground, she doubted that it would be difficult for her to get up from the ground again.

She worked hard to move her body,

Relieve the soreness of the bones and muscles of the whole body as much as possible.

The three vassals of the Inoue family took off their helmets, tucked them under their armpits, and strode silently towards Haruko.

Yayoi first said: "General, you can take off your helmet for an hour of rest now, it's okay to take a little breather."

The helmet sticks to the skin on the side of the ears and the chin, and it is hot and cold for a while, and it is extremely uncomfortable to cover the face.

But Haruko was more afraid of being seen as weak at the moment,

Hearing this, he shook his head without hesitation: "No need. I've gotten used to it after wearing it for a long time."

"Yes."

Yayoi said nothing more.

Several generals sat down cross-legged in silence.

Haruko moved around for a while, and applied some ointment given to her by Zhuzhao-kun on the easily accessible parts of her body, and felt that the soreness on her body was relieved a lot.

She pressed the handle of the 'Lei Chi' knife on her waist with her palm,
His eyes wandered around.

Shadows in the deep forest under the darkness,

I don't know when the dawn will come.

Someone in the group of warriors snored lightly, and quickly stopped snoring under his superior's scolding, and regained consciousness.

Haruko looked up to the sky,

There is no bright moon in the sky.

At this time, Mr. Zhuzhao should stop on a certain road to Kyoto, is he still asleep?
Or stay silently by the camp all night?
If Mr. Zhuzhao was here, he wouldn't have to work so hard-no road race!Haruko, don't have such thoughts, you have to cheer up, you are already the master of the Inoue family!
There are some slight noises around,

A gust of wind blows,

Those tiny noises disappeared again.

Only then did Haruko grab her thoughts, several black objects flew out of the dark forest and landed on the warriors of Inoue's family.

One of them was thrown straight at her, and rolled down at her feet—

Through the dim light, she saw the warrior at her feet.

Yuedai head, pointed chin, tattoos on his face...

This is... the scout warrior released from our family...

how……

Haruko's mind went blank for a moment.

at this time,

A hasty and high-pitched cry sounded from beside her: "Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack!"

The sound was like a sea tide. At the beginning, there were only a few generals, but gradually more warriors responded, and finally it became a tide!
The sound of the tide echoes everywhere in the deep forest!

Along with the shrieking horn sounded, there was also the sound of weapons being drawn out piece by piece!
In the darkness, various sounds kept ringing.

Takeda Nobuo, Yayoi and other retainers have already got on their horses,
Haruko followed mechanically onto the horse.

Suddenly,
The darkness 'lit' up!

Haruko heard the whistling sound of the 'boom' flames, followed by torches to light up the deep forest all around, and the bright flames surrounded the entire warrior group of Inoue's family!
After the fire, many samurai wearing blue-green patterned clothes and dark black clothes raised swords and bamboo spears and surrounded the samurai of Xiang Inoue's family.

They are crowded,

For a moment, Haruko couldn't tell how many of them there were!

Haruko could only hear Takeda Nobuo's urgent voice: "There are onmyoji accompanying the enemy's team!

They covered up their tracks and suddenly surrounded us! "

"There are a lot of people!
We must act decisively and gather troops to break through immediately! "Yayoi responded accordingly.

"Abandon the car to protect the handsome!
breakout! "

The sound of their conversation made Haruko's face under the helmet instantly turn pale!
she couldn't believe it,
I spent most of my family property to gather so many warriors, but they were about to be turned into ashes in an instant, and turned into nothing...

Haruko could hear the conversation of the three clearly.

they said,

To 'breakout'!
To 'abandon the car to save handsome'!
In the blink of an eye, has the situation already deteriorated to this point?
If you just run away in such a desperate way, you might as well die here!

Qingzi made a decision, she settled down, and when several retainers were discussing loudly, she suddenly spoke, her tone was calm, but her voice penetrated their noisy discussion and reached the ears of the three: "We Are all the warriors dead?"

The three of them were taken aback.

Although they have shown enough importance to the current Patriarch,
But in times of crisis like this,
Or subconsciously forget the existence of the other party.

After all, the existence of the other party does not bring them any reliance, nor does it give them the slightest sense of security.

If the current Zhuzhao family is here,
The three of them are afraid that they will turn their eyes to him together, waiting for his decision, instead of making their own opinions here.

however,
no matter what,

Haruko is the head of the house.

is the master of these warriors.

When she is silent, she can be ignored.

Once she speaks out, the retainers must take her opinion seriously!
