On the afternoon of June 14, Taehyung, who had lunch, set off again and headed towards the northeastern city of Takura. Yu Qiuhei climbed to the north gate of the city of Chiri. The north gate had collapsed due to disrepair. The people of the surrounding castle even put their goods on the north gate. Not all cities in Japan have gatehouses like Chinese cities, and there was no collapsed north gate.

So he could only stand on the walls of the north gate and stand on tiptoe to cross the Tianshou Pavilion in the center of the city and barely look at the barracks in the south of the city.

Suddenly, a hint of joy flashed across his face and his eyes lit up. On the roof of the dormitory in the center of the barracks, dozens of people were sending a person to a height where the North City Gate could see. As slaves, they were not qualified to see him off, so they could only watch Yu Qiuping leave in this way. Yu Qiuping looked carefully and stood on the top of the pile of arhats. The latter waved excitedly when he saw Yu Qiuping, and then shouted a few words to the people below.

However, before Yu Qiuping could wave goodbye to them, the pile of arhats below seemed to have gradually shaken due to the commotion. In a flash, it shook Yu Qiuping off the pile of arhats, making Yu Qiuping happy.

"Boy, why are you laughing at? You're leaving!" Kane Taehyung, who had already reached the gate of the city, shouted at Yu Qiuping. Yu Qiuping waved his hand away from the distance, and then got on the horse and left.

After the sun was approaching the west mountain, the group rushed to the bottom of the Takaka City. The guardian of the Takaka City was the old Uetano Nakagawa family. He frowned when he mentioned it to Hinataehyung.

"What's wrong? Brother, is it someone from the Okabe family again?" asked Yu Qiuhei, who was sitting behind Hinataehyung.

"That's not, Lord Udo..." Hinataehyung scratched his head, "It's a bit difficult to deal with."

"You actually call him an adult?" Yu Qiuping widened his eyes in surprise, "Don't you call those who are older than you, uncle?"

"Uh..." Taehyung Chao hina shook his head awkwardly, "This adult is very... very disliked... he doesn't like dealing with others. He has that dead face all day long. He usually doesn't talk to others for three sentences, and every sentence usually doesn't pass ten words. He has no contact with him, and he just has his heart to do business."

"So exaggerated!" Yu Qiuping smiled, "Then you dare to run to Dagucheng."

"Well, he doesn't like to meddle in other people's business," explained Tohide Taehyung. "There doesn't seem to be a war in Taeku Castle recently, and it's not a frontline. I didn't violate any regulations when I came here, and I guess he wouldn't pay attention to me."

As Asahina Taehyung expected, after the group arrived, Urden Naota said "welcome" politely out of respect for the Arden Nao family. He continued to patrol the barracks without even having a banquet, and asked Asahina Taehyung and others to arrange it themselves. Asahina Taehyung changed his usual domineering style and chose a station in the Shimocho town outside the city of Taehyung very low-key. It was obvious that he didn't want to touch Urden Naota's bad luck.

"The next morning, we went to the Tengsanjian to stroll around the table." Asabina Taehyung was happily gathering with everyone to introduce his plan, pointing at the military map spread on the table with his hands and feet. "If conditions permit, let's take a look at the Naruhiro Castle..."

Just as they were having a happy chat, a soldier from the Imakawa family with two slurs on his back, who had two slurs on his back suddenly came in.

"My dear sir, I'm here to come at the order of Lord Uetan." After saluting, the soldier bowed to Taehyung again. "My lord said that if Master Asahina wants to continue to go to Naruhiro and Otaka Castle, it's better to forget it."

"Why is this? Although these two cities are in Ohachi, they are all controlled by our Imakawa family." Asahina Taehyung asked in confusion.

"The Oda family sent troops to briefly surround Naruhiro Castle and Daigao Castle not long ago, and built Danxia Village, Shinzhao Temple Village and Nakajima Village under Nakajima City. Waizuzu Village and Maruko Village were built under Daigao City. These five small villages blocked the grain routes of the two cities. Now, escorting food into the city requires army escorts, and there are many Oda troops around. Please be careful." After the soldiers said these words respectfully, they asked Ashinata Taehyung, "Do you have any instructions?"

"No more, when you go back, you will tell your master, I know, thank you." After that, he waved his hand and left with disappointment.

"Then why don't we... stop going to Minghai?" Yu Qiuping suggested tentatively.

"Go, why don't you go, look at the head office from afar?" He waved his hand dissatisfiedly, "What's wrong, are you afraid?"

"There are troops from the Oda family over there," Yu Qiuhei was not only a little panicked when he thought of the cloudy general of the Oda family, "What should I do if I encounter it?"

"It doesn't matter if you meet it," Taehyung Choi snorted disdainfully, "Our dozens of cavalry can't catch up at all. If you want to capture our Oda family, you have to eliminate at least dozens of cavalry. The whole family probably has more than one hundred cavalry. How could they send a quarter of us just to capture us? Is there no cavalry left in other places to investigate?" Taehyung Choi snorted the more he said, "Even if he meets a dozen cavalry, with my master's ability, there is nothing he can't beat!"

"That's right, the young master said it!" "We are afraid that those samurai would not succeed?" Several other samurai entourage shouted ok after hearing this, only Yu Qiuhei and Yasuko Kondo showed worries.

"But I can't ride a horse," Yu Qiuping said with some fear, "What should I do if I can't run away at that time?"

"You kid, why are you so afraid of danger? You're so cowardly!" He glared at Binataehyung, "Forget it, it's really troublesome not to ride a horse. Then you and Kang Zhuang will find a village in the Tengsanjian and stay and wait for us. We'll take you away when we come back." He rolled up the map and put it in his arms. Seeing that he was so casual about important things, Yu Qiuping was very glad that he didn't hand over the paper full of the address to him for safekeeping, but placed it in the inn in Tagucheng.

The next morning, just after breakfast, Taehyung and his group hurriedly rode their horses away from Takaka Castle. After throwing Yuqiuhei and Yasso Kondo in a small village near Tansanjian, they ran towards Naruto again. Yuqiuhei repeatedly told Taehyung to be careful, but the latter obviously did not take it seriously.

Yu Qiuping and Yasuko Kondo stayed at a farmer's house for a while. The enthusiastic hostess made a pretty sumptuous lunch for the two of them. There were a few bowls of millet rice and two cucumbers with sauce. This was already very difficult for an ordinary farmer. Yu Qiuping felt guilty and wanted to give the hostess more money, but the hostess refused to accept it.

The farmer's family has lived in Weizhang for several generations. In addition to the hostess and male hosts, there are two little girls. One is five years old and the other is seven years old. The hostess is twenty-six this year. Although it is not beautiful, Yu Qiuping always feels that she is more comfortable than the rich women in Junfu City who are covered with thick rouge powder, sick and dressed in colorful clothes.

"Hey, I've been fighting for many years, and I don't know what it is," the hostess complained as she watched her two children eating rice. "It's been a few decades of fighting here. I've been catching strong men and collecting rent every year, and letting those people not live."

"No, look at me, sir," the hostess pointed to the mostly deserted paddy field outside the window. "Originally, there was a place where dozens of families in our village were farming together. As a result, more than twenty families have escaped, and only a few of us are still farming here."

"Why do you want to leave your hometown? Where have you all escaped?" Yu Qiuping asked in confusion.

"Hey, don't mention it. I guess they all ran to the Mikawa Outer. But life in the mainland is not easy." The hostess took a frown, "There are only three boys next door, and they were all captured by the Oda family. Only an old woman and two daughters-in-law were left in the house. Later, the three boys died in battle, and the old woman ran away with two daughters-in-law and a grandson."

"My father-in-law was arrested by the Imakawa family as a strong man, so he never returned. Fortunately, my husband was a little disabled with his right leg, so the soldiers from the Oda family and the Imakawa family looked down on him, so he let us go."

The so-called arrest of strong men means that when a certain family's army sends troops, they are not responsible for carrying grain and grass, and they are arbitrarily arresting men from passing territories. This situation is particularly common in small forces like the Oda family. The Oda family, which originally occupied more than 300,000 territories, can mobilize more than 9,000 territories from the territory according to military service, of which 6,000 are responsible for the supplies. However, the Oda family's continuous wars for decades have seriously insufficient adult men. In order to maintain the number of 3,000 soldiers, they have to temporarily recruit strong men from the villages on the border.

"Every year, most of the CDs are collected are taxed. Now the Imakawa family is better. The rent collected by the Oda family in the past was not as heavy as usual." The hostess sighed again, "It's hard to live a hard life. I haven't added a new dress for my child for several years. The second child can wear what the eldest child has left, but my eldest daughter is wearing only the smaller one."

"It's okay, good days will come," Yu Qiuping comforted her, and quietly stuffed a few coins into the little girl's hand and made a gesture to silence her. "When the Imakawa family sets down Ozawa, there will be no more war here."
