Chapter 224: Chikugo Castle Lord Kobayakawa Takakage's Relief



"Fortunately, we were one step faster than Naruto Matsushita."

A daimyo was still congratulating himself on the correct decision.

But just as they were about to see the dawn of entering the city, flags suddenly fluttered on the hillside ahead.

"Nani? What are those?"

"It's the enemy! Oh no! We've been ambushed."

Before the daimyos could recover from their shock, they had already rushed down the hillside.

“Kill!”

Now everyone understood that not only was their trip in vain, but it was also very dangerous.

They no longer had the strength to even escape, let alone pick up weapons.

Now it’s clear without a doubt that the winner has been decided.

Naruto Matsushita looked at the one-sided killing and felt extremely happy.

"My lord is truly a god."

Fengyun asked him to do this.

Originally they had the opportunity to besiege the city, but Otomo Sorin had no way to delay the enemy, so he could only set an ambush here.

At this moment, Fengyun was still riding his horse and rushing over.

He was already very close to the ambush point and could hear shouts and screams from afar.

Fengyun was still a little worried, but when he ran closer and took a look, he smiled.

The soldiers in Chikugo were suppressed by Naruto Matsushita's soldiers and had no power to fight back.

At this time, Naruto Matsushita was heard roaring loudly.

"Baga! You still don't surrender, don't you want to live? As long as you surrender, I, Naruto Matsushita, promise not to hurt you."

"Surrender and you won't be killed!"

"Surrender and you won't be killed!"

“…”

Instantly, a deafening roar erupted among Naruto Matsushita's soldiers.

Faced with a desperate situation, almost no one still has the determination to resist.

They dropped their weapons much faster than they could escape.

There is no way, there is really no way.

At this moment, the opponent had completely lost their morale, all of which had been exhausted by running all the way.

Seeing Fengyun coming, Panasonic Naruto nodded and bowed over.

"My lord, this time it was thanks to your brilliant plan that we were able to defeat them so easily. I never thought you were not only so powerful, but also so resourceful."

"Hahaha, just so-so."

Fengyun felt a little embarrassed by what he said, so he quickly changed the subject:

"First, clean up the battlefield and restrain the surrendered soldiers. Then quickly figure out how to attack Chikugo Castle."

"Don't worry, my lord. Taking Chikugo will be easy. The adventurers have been killed or wounded, and there are no more than 100,000 soldiers in the city now. When the time comes, we can persuade them to surrender and open the gates."

Since he was so confident, Fengyun said nothing more.

After they slowly cleaned up the battlefield, they slowly surrounded the city behind the city.

Only then did Panasonic Naruto stand up and speak.

"Kobayakawa Takakage, Chikugo Castle has been surrounded. You have no reinforcements left. Why don't you surrender now? What are you waiting for?"

"Naruto Matsushita, you are a disgrace to the Matsushita family."

"Hahaha, quite the opposite. I am the pride of the Matsushita family. It was me who brought the Matsushita family to glory. Without me, the Matsushita family would still be an insignificant city lord. But now, the Matsushita family is an existence that the entire Saikaido looks up to."

"You got all this through despicable means."

"Despicable? What a joke! The Han Chinese have a saying: The victor is the king, the loser is the bandit! Now that I've succeeded, I'm the king, and you're the bandits. From now on, whatever I say is what's right."

"You are blaspheming the spirit of Bushido. You are not worthy of being a samurai."

"Idiot! You're the one who loses now, not me. You're the one who should commit seppuku."

Kobayakawa Takakage was being mercilessly mocked, and he felt very unwilling in his heart.

At this time, Matsushita Naruto waved his hand, and a daimyo stood up.

This man was Tachibana Muneshige, the daimyo of a small town in Chikugo.

He has now been persuaded.

With the overall situation so clear, they were quite wise and all the captives chose to surrender to Fengyun.

When Kobayakawa Takakage saw that it was Tachibana Muneshige, he knew that he had betrayed him and immediately pointed at his nose and cursed:

"Tachibana Muneshige, I've been very kind to you over the years, right? Why would you betray me?"

"Daimyo Kobayakawa Takakage, we have done our best this time. We were all captured in order to save Chikugo Castle. The disparity in strength between us is too great, and you cannot resist. Please surrender for the sake of the people within the city."

"What! You were defeated and captured? How could you fail with so many of you?"

Kobayakawa Takakage obviously did not receive any news of their battle. It was he who led everyone to attack Otomo Sorin.

"I'm truly sorry. To reassure you, we didn't dare send you a battle report. We paid a heavy price to defeat Otomo Sorin. In order to get into the city before Matsushita Naruto, we were ambushed by them, so we couldn't send you a message. I can only say that none of us betrayed you, but the enemy was too strong. We admit defeat and are willing to surrender."

"This is an army of three million. How could you fail like this?"

Kobayakawa Takakage sent out most of his soldiers, but the news he received was that they had been defeated.

This made him feel like he was struck by lightning.

He no longer had any strength to turn around.

It is impossible to ask for help from neighboring countries, as these daimyo only care about interests.

Now he can no longer offer any benefits.

"Yes, we tried our best."

These words made Kobayakawa Takakage sit on the ground helplessly.

Muttering to himself:

"Why! Why! These are the soldiers I spent all my energy training for you. Hahahaha..."

Kobayakawa Takakage laughed heartily as if he had gone crazy.

Naruto Matsushita watched him vent quietly. It was normal for people to feel emotionally unstable after experiencing great ups and downs.

He looked at the disheveled Kobayakawa Takakage and calmly handed him a cigarette.

This is a modern cigarette improved by a genius Japanese player through the hands of an NPC.

It's a good thing, and once it's launched on the market, it's in short supply.

Fengyun wanted to find this player and introduce this local tobacco to the Han Dynasty, then his wealth would double in a few years.

"Have a smoke, it will make you feel better."

Kobayakawa Takakage took it and put it to his lips tremblingly.

Naruto Matsushita immediately lit a tinderbox and lit it for him.

“Hiss~hiss~whoosh~~”

Seeing him take a big sip, Panasonic Naruto said:

"How are you? Are you feeling better?"

"Feeling good? I want to cry! I've worked so hard for most of my life, and now I have nothing left."

Seeing him so depressed, Naruto Matsushita gave him a little hope.

"How could that be? As long as you surrender, Chikugo Castle will still be yours."

"Really?"

"Of course, I want you to surrender."

"But what about all my soldiers?"

"I will protect this place from now on. You won't need so many soldiers."

"That's true."
