Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 172: Hongmen Banquet

"Will Li Xiao come in such a snowy day?" Jiang Ma Shisheng sneered on his lips.

Highland Suwa Castle.

There is an atmosphere of solemnity in the Tianshou Pavilion of the Jiangma family

Warriors in armors are all around going upstairs and downstairs, as if this is not a New Year's banquet, but ready to fight and fight at any time.

Jiang Ma Fraser stood respectfully, standing behind Jiang Ma Shisheng, and said: "My father, I know Li Xiao's temper. He will definitely come."

Jiang Ma Shisheng turned around and closed the panes heavily. Because there was no cold wind blowing in, the temperature in the house instantly rose a lot with the burning of the charcoal brazier on the side.

The beating flames swayed, and Jiang Ma Shisheng's face was gloomy and uncertain. Looking over from Jiangma Huisheng, he saw that half of his face was slightly flushed, but half of it was cold and cold.

Jiang Ma Shisheng shook the samurai sword at his waist, and then said a little bit harshly: "Very well, Li Xiao has a lot of tricks. This time I also fall into my trap, how about it? I'm all ready. ?"

Jiangma Fraser lowered his head and said: "Everything is ready, now we wait for Li Xiao to fall into our net."

Jiang Ma Shisheng raised his head and smiled and nodded very happily, "Li Xiao, I can't think of it. Guandong is in charge, Huihugong has promised to form an alliance with my Jiangma family. There is a word from Huihugong, sister Xiaolu. Home, the inner island family will definitely not dare to send troops to my Jiangma family. So the alliance between our family and the Takeda family is meaningless."

Jiang Ma Shisheng waved his hand and said: "Since the alliance is meaningless, the Takeda family is no longer available. It's ridiculous, but Li Xiao didn't know it. This time I came to Suwa on my plateau. Self-defeating. His head is the best gift I give to the governor to show the sincerity of my Jiangma family."

Jiang Ma Fraser looked at Jiang Ma Shisheng with a confident look, and shook his head secretly, but he still said: "Father, Li Xiaowu is very skilled, and there is a famous name like Shioka Meng and Shioka Kazuha by his side. With the samurai accompanying, I’m afraid it’s not easy to kill them with just forty or fifty dead soldiers."

Jiang Ma Shisheng smiled unpredictably, and said: "You don't have to worry about this, I have already made arrangements."

Jiang Ma Fraser saw Jiang Ma Shisheng's appearance in his chest, and couldn't help but secretly speculate in his heart what support he had.

Jiangma Fraser still couldn't help asking: "My father, did he arrange other preparations? Please pardon me. If you slaughter Li Xiao in the Tianshou Pavilion, the terrain here is small and inconvenient. The advantage of crowds is unexplored It is even more difficult to forcibly kill Li Xiao with personal force. I am worried that if the ambush fails, Li Xiao will be forced to kill through the encirclement, just like letting a tiger go back to the mountain, and there will be endless troubles."

Jiang Ma Shisheng raised his eyes and said with a hum, "Do you think I will not be able to estimate it? I have already arranged Xuanyuanzhong's... Forget it, you will know about it when the time comes. You'd better be first Get back and prepare."

Jiangma Fraser nodded. Just as he was about to go downstairs, suddenly a warrior from the Jiangma family ran upstairs and said: "Report to the lord, Li Xiao from the Takeda family and his entourage have already appeared outside the city. "

Jiang Ma Shisheng was stunned, then his eyes flashed, and he sneered and said: "Li Xiao, he really came, very good, how many people did he bring?"

"There are probably only eleven or two people, and several packhorses, which should be pretended to be congratulatory gifts."

"Oh?"

Jiang Ma Shisheng was slightly surprised, and then quickly walked to the edge of the window sill, opened the window pane and looked out. Indeed, not far from the plateau Suwa city, a group of horses and horses were walking slowly towards the city, walking on the snow. Come on.

Closing the pane, Jiang Ma Shisheng walked to the side of the brazier, stretched out his hands on the brazier, and thought for a while and said: "Li Xiao, these ten entourages, must be elite warriors with extraordinary martial arts, you must treat them well. , Might as well prepare a few Maggies to accompany them, and when they are half drunk, they will..."

Speaking of this, Jiang Ma Shisheng stretched out his hand and cut down, suddenly making a killing gesture.

"Oh"

The samurai led the way and retreated.

After the arrangements were made, Jiang Ma Shisheng had a full set of clothes and said to Jiang Ma Fraser: "Let's go, let us see Master Li Xiao, one last time."

Jiang Ma Shisheng was full of confidence, laughed for a long time, and then strode out.

Jiang Ma Fraser followed Jiang Ma Shisheng's back and looked at his back, with a sarcasm also showing at the corner of his mouth.

In the wind and snow, Li Xiao wore a large cloak and looked at the towering plateau of Suwa City.

Li Xiao laughed disdainfully, and said to Shimatsu Shimao and Kazuoka Shioka: "Unexpectedly, I underestimated Jiangma Shisheng's ambition and decision. I didn't even start, but he made one. The Hongmen banquet is here."

Dao Sheng Meng rode immediately and walked side by side with Li Xiao, saying: "Master, this Jiangma Shisheng is really overwhelming. With the warriors of his Jiangma family, it is not enough to kill us."

Li Xiao shook his head and said, "No, it's not the case. You underestimate Jiangma's prosperity."

Dao Shengmeng listened to this, slightly stunned.

When you come to Suwa, Suwa Castle, Honmaru.

Jiangma Shisheng, Jiangma Fraser, and six or seven vassals of the Jiangma clan have been greeted there. Among them are the only remaining gods among the four main vassals, the two Patriarchs of Ji Village.

Seeing Li Xiao, Jiang Ma Shisheng had a very free smile, as if a friend he hadn't seen for many years almost hooked his shoulders.

Li Xiao secretly surprised the other party's acting skills, but was also very on the road, staged a touching scene of meeting and laughing.

"Master Chang, I heard that you are ill. I don't know if you are getting better these days. The lord asked me to greet you and your health. This time I brought ginseng and a little tonic medicinal material. I also ask Master Chang to take care of your body."

"Meng Xin Xuan Gong asked, thank you very much, I have recovered these few days." Jiang Ma Shisheng said sincerely.

After speaking, Jiang Ma Shisheng accepted Li Xiao's gift. Li Xiao's entourage was taken to another place by Jiangma's family and hosted a banquet.

On Li Xiao's side, only Shimatsu Meng and Shioka Kazuha entered the castle tower in Honmaru.

In front of the main gate of the castle tower, Li Xiao and the three of them first untied the knives in the main gate and moved into the main tower with their right hand.

The samurai sword is the samurai's personal belongings. When it is not a last resort, we will never leave the body. Even if the samurai visits someone else's home, there is no need to unload the portable sword.

However, in order to show respect for the owner, the guest must still enter the house holding the katana scabbard with his right hand.

The reason is that except for left-handed people, using the scabbard with the left hand means that the samurai can pull the scabbard out of the scabbard with the right hand of the sword at any time, which is an expression of extreme distrust of the owner.

In the assessment room on the second floor of the castle tower, the guest and host of both parties sit down.

The assessment room is about fifty square meters in size, and is separated by paper sliding doors on both sides, making it difficult to see the situation behind.

Both parties were sitting on their knees, and there was a small wooden table in front of them, filled with dishes, but everyone was unwilling to eat. In the center of the banquet, two entertainers were performing Noh.

At the time, the military commanders who did not understand Noh were ridiculed as people with no taste and taste, especially for the officials in Kyoto.

But at that time, in the eyes of most samurai, these Noh performers, holding fans and chanting meaningless lines during the performance, had no fun at all.

Almost an hour has passed since the performance of the Noh drama, and all the servants of the Jiangma family are sitting upright and motionless. They are already impatient.

Jiang Ma Shisheng looked at it, but saw that Li Xiao and the three of them were also in the same spirit, sitting solemnly in the seats, but he was slightly surprised.

Jiang Ma Shisheng looked at Li Xiao and asked, "Master Li Xiao, can this Noh drama be wonderful?"

Li Xiao twisted his neck, which was obviously very rude.

He bluntly said: "It's so boring."

The smile on Jiang Ma Shisheng’s face was already suppressed, and he stood up and said: "Oh, it seems that noh is such an elegant thing, it really is not a countryman from Kaifei and can appreciate it. Master Li Xiao can’t understand, It is also normal."

Li Xiao looked at Jiang Ma Shisheng, and saw him staring directly at Li Xiao unceremoniously.

"Oh, it seems that Mr. Jiang Ma is very, very impatient, and is going to smash his face," Li Xiao looked at Jiang Ma's shocked expression, and said sarcastically, "I thought this scene would have to be performed again. Will it."

Jiang Ma Shisheng's body shook slightly, his face showing a bit of panic, but then he settled again, and then suddenly stood up, stretched his foot and kicked, and the entire wooden table was kicked over by him.

Then banging footsteps sounded, and the paper sliding doors on both sides were suddenly opened. Dozens of Jiangma warriors all wielded Taichi and Ye Taichi, and surrounded Li Xiao and the three of them.

Li Xiao, Dao Shengmeng, Shigang Yiyu and the three stood up, with their knives in their hands, with a disdainful smile on their faces, obviously not paying attention to this group of people.

Li Xiao smiled sarcastically: "Master Jiangma, you really have no new ideas. Last time, you used this back-hand method. This time I tried the same trick again. I really took your IQ for you, oh no. , Is ashamed of wisdom."

"Really?" Jiang Ma snorted, his eyes flashed with coldness.

As soon as Jiang Ma Shisheng's voice fell, Li Xiao suddenly felt that something was wrong, and then moved a step back.

Just when Li Xiao stepped back half a step, Li Xiao suddenly shot a short sword under the small wooden table where the dishes were placed in front of him, and shot it straight up from the bottom to the top.

Li Xiao dodged dangerously, only to feel a cold sword light passing from the tip of his nose, and then the short sword slammed directly into the beam of the castle tower above his head, and the hilt shook hummingly.

Li Xiao was shocked in a cold sweat. If he took a step back, this dagger would directly blow his head.

Li Xiao pulled the knife out of its sheath instantly, flipped the knife and smashed it down, only to see a loud bang, and then the small wooden table in front of him fell apart, and the dishes on it were scattered all over the floor.

Then an inconspicuous metal shrapnel ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ fell to the ground. This is the mechanism for shooting this dagger.

Li Xiao suddenly felt shocked and angry. He was almost buried in this small institution. He was still too big and brave enough, but he looked down upon Jiang Ma Shisheng Yigan.

But he didn't expect that in addition to setting up an ambush, the other party actually prepared hidden weapons to hurt people.

Li Xiao looked at Jiang Ma Shi Sheng and said: "Your Excellency, as a martial artist, did such a treacherous calculation. The eighteenth generation of your Jiang Ma family's ancestors have lost all their faces."

Jiang Ma Shisheng was taken aback for a moment, what is the eighteenth generation of ancestors, but then he realized that this was Li Xiao's curse again in the way of Mingguo's mantra.

Jiang Ma Shisheng furiously said: "Your Takeda family is plotting to seize my Jiangma territory. This is even more despicable and shameless. My Jiang Ma Shisheng uses trivial tricks, and it is nothing. The Jiang Ma family samurai obeyed, Kill them all for me and take the bounty from the inferior."

Seeing that Jiang Ma Shisheng gave a reward, the warriors of the Jiang Ma family cried out, and Li Xiao and the three of them swarmed up from two sides. . ..
