I'm Really a God

"Thinking of fighting, Feng is more suitable to be a pure healing witch, and she is doing very well now."

Kikyo understood her sister's ability, Feng was influenced by her, and always felt that a shrine maiden with little fighting power was not qualified.But I don't think that witches also have a division of labor, and those who are as omnipotent as Kikyo are an odd number.

"Well, she is working hard to help people treat, but she never thought that her brother-in-law is killing people and destroying the city."

Kou Ziqing's tone was indifferent, Kikyo turned his head to look at him and said:

"Hojo Iane Furuya Castle, Hongo Castle, Koan Temple Museum and many other cities were breached by you. They sent envoys to talk about it, and even surrendered their protons, but you refused?"

"Well, I don't know where it is too dishonest to take an adopted son as a hostage. Send his eldest son Ise Uzuna here, so I can consider buffering for a few months."

Kou Ziqing smiled calmly. During the conversation, the Hojo clan, the future overlord of the Kanto region, had already changed his fate in his tone. It's just a few short months, from autumn to the current winter.

"Why do you have such a problem with the Hojo family?"

When Kikyo was walking around the world, she also knew some general trends in the world, at least she also knew some of the situation in the Kanto countries. She knew that the family governor of this family was a man of great talent, and he had already occupied Sagami. The city can be said to be a giant, and it is very powerful with the Imagawa family as its backing.Kikyo doesn't know much about military affairs and thinks that he should not attack this kind of people from the beginning, but should eat other small families first to accumulate strength.

"Fighting in the world is a battle of luck. If you just seek the territory of a small family, you won't get much luck. Only after swallowing the Ise, that is, the Hojo family, can you get transformed. Moreover, if I treat the elders of other wealthy families If I do something, the king will not like it. On the contrary, if I do something to the Hojo family, he will only be happy. Because the rise of the Hojo family is largely due to the internal fighting between the two Uesugi families."

Kou Ziqing not only has the ability to look forward to, but also has an understanding of history.Those who can see the future are always better than those who can only see the present.Kikyo said with some concern:

"The Hojo family has the Imagawa family as their backing, and their strength is strong. I'm afraid it will not be so easy to deal with."

"It is such a hard bone that tastes good when it is chewed off. Many warriors under my command are vicious dogs."

Kou Ziqing said with a smile, but his eyes saw the situation of a certain battlefield through mysterious induction. Leilu rushed into the enemy with a hammer in his hand, pounding left and right, whether it was an ashigaru or a warrior, no matter what kind of weapon he was holding Weapons, what kind of armor you wear, are all treated equally, and you will be killed with a hammer.The ashigaru behind him were also like wolves and tigers under his leadership. With only more than 100 people, more than 700 troops were beaten and fled.

"Akatsuka Castle is about to change hands, Hojo Soun, you have a good nickname for that villain from another country, and it will belong to me in the future."

Chapter 170 Five Killing with a Borrowed Knife

Oda Genjo Castle of Sagami Country, this city can be called the center of the western part of Sagami Country. It is the residence of Omori Shiyai, the important minister of the Uesugi Clan in Yamauchi. It was captured by Hojo Soun with a fire bull array a few years ago, and then the Hojo Clan used this city as their residence. , the Hojo clan continued to expand the city, including the surrounding castle towns, and the arrow towers on the city wall were also densely packed.It is a rare city similar to Daming, not a castle.

In the original history, Odawara Castle had no advantages of terrain, but this castle has become one of the most famous impenetrable castles in Kanto and even Japan by virtue of its strong fortifications, and it has maintained the security of the Hojo family for nearly a hundred years.

Bang!

An old man dressed as a first-generation warrior angrily smashed the precious teacup from the Ming Dynasty into a ball on the ground. Many people around him, including maids, guards, warriors, etc., knelt down in fear.Because the strong old man in front of them is the one who can kill them and seize the power. Not only that, Sagami, Izu and both countries are in the hands of the old man. The famous name of the Warring States Period, when he was angry, he was enough to bleed!

"My lord, Akatsuka Castle has been captured by Yu Sui, the city lord. We have already lost several cities, and almost all the forces in Musashi Kingdom have been uprooted. Please decide what to do."

A man dressed as a ninja stood on one knee at the front to report. Unlike many daimyos, Hojo Soun is a veritable old man. He didn’t really fight until he was in his 50s. He has a city that is far from ordinary daimyos. He throws his anger away when he breathes. The back of his head said:

"How is the progress of the alliance and reconciliation between the discharged envoys and Maple City?"

"My lord, Izayo-sama has avoided seeing him. His first civil servant Odagawa Gen has already expressed his intention not to form an alliance."

"..."

Hojo Soun fell silent, and after a while he said:

"It seems that I have been going too smoothly these years, and I finally found a stumbling block. This person was just a warrior who subdued demons and demons. With his help, Long Shancheng eliminated the snake demon. I thought it was a good fate. , but I didn’t expect to have such evil results all of a sudden.”

This is something Hojo Soun doesn't understand very much. Although he is not the sixteen nights he received, he has also given enough rewards and respect. I really don't understand why he is so hostile to him. Although it is said that in this era, there is strength Ambition is normal, but fighting without declaring and only attacking his sphere of influence all the time is a bit unclear. How can I say that the Hojo family is also a tough one, and picking up soft persimmons is the way to grow stronger.

"No matter why, I will not be afraid to choose to be my enemy. How is the intelligence investigation of Maple City?"

"My lord, Maple City was built overnight, and there are mysterious means to prevent the spies you encounter from getting in. You can only buy the Baixin inside as informants, but Hucang City and other villages and towns are still managed according to ordinary cities. method, and there is no mysterious force interfering, so there is some progress."

"Bring it up!"

Hojo Soun took his seat, and the ninja clapped his hands, and soon the shinobi handed over some sorted papers. Hojo Soun glanced at the maids and warriors who were still kneeling and said:

"Okay, let's do our own thing."

"Hi!"

Everyone left as if they were being amnesty. After reading the file, Hojo said:

"that's it?"

"Yes. Izayoi's rise is too fast. The most information about him in the past is the disciple of Kikyo Priestess. His past is a mystery, and no one is sure whether he is a nobleman or not."

"Whether there is a Miao character is very important to ordinary people, but it doesn't matter to Izayoi. His current strength and status are in themselves the process of creating a family."

"Hi!"

Although the intelligence information he got was very little, Hojo Soun read it again and again to find useful information, and he quickly discovered something:

"Eight Strategies for the City? Yes, it is indeed a good strategy for governing the city. This will make it easier for the people to return to their hearts."

Hojo Soun also attaches great importance to the management of the people. In order to allow the people to cultivate their livelihoods, he changed the taxation very early, and changed the tax system in the territory to a system of four publics and six peoples that greatly reduced the burden on the people.He saw the advanced nature of the eight strategies in the city.Thinking about the current situation in his territory, he continued to check.

"The army in Maple City is divided into two types. One is the Hundred Ghosts that appeared at the very beginning. They seem to appear out of thin air. They clean up bandits and crusade against demons in Musashi. Some people suspect that they are not human beings, but have no feelings. The lost army of corpses. The second is the ashigaru who have been trained for several months. There are hundreds of troops, farmers from all over the field who have completely separated from the fields, two generals, Fengzhu and Leilu, and seven samurai. "

Hojo Soun thought for a while. First of all, there are hundreds of ghosts. In this era, monsters are rampant. In addition to conventional combat power such as ashigaru and samurai, many powerful daimyos also have extraordinary powers such as swordsmen, ninjas, onmyojis, and monks. .

Swordsman leads the army or protects the daimyo as a shadow warrior, and ninjas spy on information or assassinate enemies are also common usages, but it is the power of temples and shrines that really deal with demons. Meditation, he heard that a certain sect of Buddhism has a peculiar method, which can turn some dead people into corpse soldiers to fight, but it is not against people, but against demons.

The most famous anecdote was that he had seen it when he was young, the method of the Shingon sect that was accidentally born, the method of corpse princess.Legend has it that because a certain eminent monk lost his beloved daughter, he hoped to use the power of magic to revive her daughter, and because of this motive, Shi Ji was born.This is a method that is much more advanced than Corpse Soldiers, because it retains the wisdom of life, and because of the strange spiritual power that was born in the body after being resurrected from death, it has great restraint on demons.But even in Tantra, this method is the secret of secrets, and it is a power that cannot be exposed very much.

The information in hand analyzed the situation of the Hundred Ghosts, they were pure killing soldiers without any emotion.And the fighting power is unimaginably strong. Whether it is a fallen swordsman bandit or a bloodthirsty demon, they have gone through hundreds of battles without any damage, and someone has observed patiently and carefully. The ghosts have never eaten or eaten. This is also suspected. human evidence.

"Many large temples and shrines have issued statements that do not allow the use of non-human beings as military forces to conquest. If these ghosts are really not human, they may be able to kill people with swords."

Hojo Soun said to the ninja:

"What do you think, Fuma Kotaro?"
