Sunset City.

A place located in Hita County, Fenghou Kingdom is surrounded by high mountain basins. Since ancient times, this has been a place that military strategists must fight for. Standing on the earth wall of Riji City, heading north, passing the towering mountain path of Yubuyue, it is a city leading to the Fenghou Kingdom of Ouaiga. To the east, along the mountain road next to the river, it is the hinterland of Fenghou Kingdom. To the south, along the mountain path, you can reach the foot of Asu Mountain in Feihou. To the west, it is through the Shuisheng Mountain and the Baozhu Mountain system to border the two countries of Jiqian and Jihou.

Outside the city, Sanjichuan, an important branch of Zhuhouchuan, passes along the city wall. There are many farmers distributed along the coast of Sanjichuan. The fertile land along the coast can be said to be a small granary in Fenghou Kingdom. Since Sanjichuan originates from the water flows and springs in the surrounding mountains, whenever the rainy season comes, when these water flows gather on Sanjichuan, the water surface of Sanjichuan rises, and once the surrounding river embankments are missing, it often causes great floods. Local farmers believe that this is the reason for the dissatisfaction of the water god, so every time the rainy season comes, a grand fireworks conference will be held here. It can be said that this is a water god festival that prays for floods. This ceremony has been preserved until later generations and has become a famous fireworks festival. At the same time, the water quality here is also quite good, especially the groundwater, which is said to be healthier than ordinary mineral water, and will become a famous product in the future.

At this time, Rijiu City had completely become the logistics base for the Otomo family to build a strategy for the future country. A large amount of food, weapons and other materials were piled up here. Due to the limited manpower, the women and children who were responsible for maintaining these materials were temporarily recruited from the local area. As for the males, they were basically recruited to the frontline to participate in the Otomo family's strategy for Gaoliang City.

This place was originally a territory of the Great God family. After being completely subdued by the Otomo family, the great god family, who was one of the top nobles, was forced to give up the territory here. Then the family moved to Jiuzhu County, which was much worse than here, and it completely became the direct territory of the Otomo family.

Although the Otomo family has been in charge of this place for more than ten years, since the guards here have always been voluntarily dealing with local leaders, and the consciences of these governors for the original lord and god family, the military-civilian relationship here is not very good. So in order to avoid accidents, the logistics general who was the logistics general who was the guide of the Otomo family and the temporary lord here, Yukiki, simply sent the male men here to the front line, and sent the main guard forces in the city to the checkpoint in the Fuyu Mountain Road to defend the Dafeng Mae Dainai family in the north (although the two families had formed an alliance at this time, it was necessary to guard against each other). Due to the lack of male men and not many guards left in the city, he simply forced the local women and children with almost zero combat power to assist in material management.

It was already afternoon today, and Usuki Snap was checking the account book at this time. Last night, several wealthy families who gathered in Riji City to respond to the call of Otomo family also rushed to the camp of Otomo family in Jigou. Now the military forces of the two wealthy families have not arrived yet. According to the latest reports, the military forces of these two wealthy families have also arrived at the nearby Kakumuli City. They will pass here today and then rush to the camp of Kakugou. As for the latest batch of peasant soldiers who were recruiting to transport supplies, they should also arrive at the Xiongmuli City behind Kakumuli City. Everything seems to be in order. Now we can only wait for good news from Kakugou.

He was full of confidence in this guide. After all, this time he personally sent a mission to the Danei family and secretly joined forces with the Naito family to promote the alliance between the two companies, so he achieved the goal of jointly attacking the Luo family. With the current strength of the two companies, he could completely crush the Luo family. So he was very confident.

"Sir, Sir."

At this moment, several urgent calls from the guards sounded outside the meeting hall. Yukiki heard this and frowned, put down the account book in his hand, then stood up with both hands and walked slowly towards the door.

"Sir." At this moment, the two guards walked in from outside the door in a hurry, and were holding a warrior who was panting and scattering but still weak.

"Is this?" Seeing this scene, Yukiki was stunned. At the same time, a bad premonition broke out from the bottom of his heart.

"Lord... lord..." The visitor fainted before he finished speaking. Before he fainted, one of his hands pointed hard in the west.

"Come on, help him to rest." The visitor was obviously exhausted and fell into a coma. As long as he recuperated for a while, it would be fine. However, his words and actions before his coma completely made Yukio's speed-catching. He couldn't help but pace in the room.

"No, the lord is in danger." Suddenly, Yukiki seemed to think of something, and suddenly exclaimed: "Come here, immediately beat the drum and gather the soldiers."

Just as Usuki Kansui gathered soldiers in Rikki Castle, Otoyo Yoshiki was about to fall into danger.

After discovering that there were pursuers behind him, Ototo Yoshikazu decisively issued an order to escape immediately. However, the distance between the pursuers was very close at this time. In order to gain enough time for Ototo Yoshikazu, Tan Beijian and the other forty warriors resolutely chose to stay and be responsible for blocking the pursuers. These samurai who are still following Ototo Yoshikazu are obviously hard-core supporters of the Ototo family. Even though they knew that staying this time would probably lead to death, they frowned. With the help of several people, Ototo Yoshikazu continued to escape in the city.

In order to speed up the escape, Otomo Yoshiki and others left only their weapons, and even their armor was discarded. At the same time, they also chose one of the people who ran the fastest legs and feet to rush to Rijichuang City to request reinforcements in advance to come and respond. This person was the unconscious warrior who had just been received by Usuki's speed.

In this way, Otomo Yoshiki ran all the way for half an hour, not only crossing the junction of the Jihou Kingdom and Fenghou Kingdom, but also seeing the shadow of Rijiu City. At this moment, a sound of horse hooves sounded behind him. It turned out that Masayora and others were chasing him.

Being blocked by Tian Beijian, and halfway through, several Otomo family samurai deliberately drilled into the forest along the way, causing signs of the Otomo family's defeated troops fleeing in batches, confusing Masara and others' tracking. Masara and others obviously could not catch up with Otomo Yoshimi in time.

When Ototo Yoshiki was in trouble, just when Masayoshi asked Haidongqing to determine the main escape direction for the Ototo family's defeated troops, more than 30 cavalry led by Tomosa Isono arrived in time.

It turned out that even though he temporarily asked Masaru Takasaka Masato and Asakura Soidi to be responsible for Masaru's safety, Yamamoto Kazusuke and Togo Heiji felt that it was not safe enough, so he temporarily transferred some of the cavalry who had joined the three armies and asked Isono Tomoto to lead him to support Masaru. Since these cavalrymen were walking on the main road, not the mountain path that Masaru and others walked to track the collapsed soldiers of the Otomo family, they happened to arrive at this time.

After joining the cavalry, Masara immediately replaced one of the cavalry and then let the infantry come. He led Isono Tomokazu and others to continue chasing. Finally, he saw the shadow of Otomo Yoshiki and others when he was about to arrive in Riji City. However, a team of dozens of people were also launched at the gate of Riji City. Obviously, they were here to pick up Otomo Yoshiki and others.

When he found that there were cavalrymen behind him, Ototo Yoshiki and others were shocked. The most likely thing in this world is to arrive at the end, but he found that hope was slim. Ototo Yoshiki now regretted it. If he had known, he would have listened to the advice of his subordinates and asked someone to pretend to be him and walk on the main road. Then he hid in the forest next to the mountain road waiting for rescue.

But he was indeed scared at that time. Once the Luo family completely blocked the main road leading to Rijiu City before them, he would have to wait in the forest to starve to death. So after hesitating for a while, he still asked someone to divide it into several groups, and then entered the nearby forest along the way, while he continued to escape. He was about to escape, but at this time, enemy cavalry appeared behind him, which made Ototo Yoshikazu instantly fall from heaven to hell.

"Lord, escape quickly!" At the critical moment, the last four remaining retainers around Otomo Yoshikiya resolutely turned around and shouted to kill the cavalry behind. They were preparing to temporarily stop the pursuers behind with their physical bodies.

Otomo Yoshiki turned his head and looked at several retainers deeply, then resolutely turned his hair and ran forward like crazy. Supported by the desire to survive, his speed increased to an unimaginable speed.

"Kill!" From a distance, I saw four madmen shouting at the Otomo family samurai who was blocking the road like a madman. Isono Shin-ho instantly increased his horse speed and left Masaru behind him. Then he shouted loudly, raised his horse and gun in his hand and went forward to kill him without decreasing speed.

"Kill!" Several cavalrymen behind him followed Isono Hoshimasaki, and also raised their rifles and rushed forward with constant speed.

"Puchi, puchi..."

Four consecutive sounds of physical piercing sounded, and the four Otomo's samurai were finally shot by Hoshi Isono and others. However, the speed of the horse team was still affected a little.

Masaru quickly rode his horse around Isono's Otoshimasa and others. At this time, Otomo Yoshiki was approaching the Otomo family army that came out of Hijiki City to respond.

While Masayoshi continued to chase, he picked up the arch arch hanging on the horse's belly with one hand, leaned over and leaned on the horse's back to ensure that his body was stable, then let go of the horse's reins, pulled out the feather arrow from behind with his left hand and placed it on the longbow, and finally sat up again.

Pull the string with the right hand, hold the bow and arrow with the left hand, aim.

"Take me an arrow, Otoyo Yoshimi!"
