- In the castle tower of Kitazozhuang Castle. ././
Shibata Katsuie had put on his armor, pressed the handle of the knife, and stepped on the wooden board in the attic.
In a corner of the attic, the walls were stained with blood, and the bodies of several maids lay beside them on the ground.
¡°This is a warning to others to bleed. Even though these maids were all brought by Aichi from Owari Mino, they were still beheaded.
Shibata Katsuie turned a blind eye to this scene.
With several followers approaching, Shibata Katsuie pushed with both hands and opened the gate of the castle tower.
The moment the door opened, a loud roar filled the ears.
During this period, there was the sound of booming cannons and the rustling of iron cannons.
Shibata Katsuie frowned heavily and strode down the stone steps.
And the samurai behind Shibata Katsuie's expressions all darkened.
A row of more than twenty ashigaru were arranged in a spear formation, vigilantly guarding the main gate of the castle tower.
When the leading samurai in his thirties saw Shibata Katsuie appear, he immediately saluted in front of him and said, "See you, my lord."
Shibata Katsuie said expressionlessly: "Heiji, follow me."
"oh!"
Shibata Katsuie walked away, and the surrounding ashigaru sheathed their spears, and they all followed behind Shibata Katsuie.
Walking all the way from Honmaru to Soimaru, Shibata Katsuie saw Ashigaru soldiers who were all frightened and panicked.
The artillery shells of the Takeda Army fell from time to time in Kitanojo City, and the huge roar stimulated the nerves of these tired soldiers.
Shibata Katsuie is on the way. The Hatamoto samurai were constantly summoned to Ashigaru, gathering more than three hundred people.
When he reached Sannomaru Otemon, Shibata Katsuie suddenly heard a thumping sound in front of him.
"Open the door quickly!"
"Open the door quickly!"
"The city is broken!"
"Let us in quickly!"
"Otherwise, the door will be broken down!"
The warriors in front of the city gate were well guarded and looked at each other when they saw this.
Soon, there was the sound of heavy objects hitting the door in front of Oshou's door.
"Let them in."
Shibata Katsuie shouted with a livid face.
Hearing Shibata Katsuie¡¯s order, the guarding samurai immediately opened the city gate.
The city gate was only half-opened when a group of ashigaru, who had abandoned their helmets and armor, rushed in like they were desperate.
These ashigaru are like headless flies. Running around blindly.
When these people saw that there was a row of samurai ashigaru holding swords and guns behind the door, and the tall body of Shibata Katsuie standing among them, they all stopped immediately.
Boom!
The Takeda Army's twelve-pounder cannon hit a city wall not far away heavily.
Even though the city wall was strong, a big hole was created by the cannonball.
Suddenly gravel flew.
Dust was flying towards the Shibata Army soldiers.
Shibata Katsuie held the riding whip, put his hands behind his back, and let the earth and rocks hit the armor. But he remained motionless.
At this time, a well-dressed general lost his headband and was escorted to the gate by two men with disheveled hair.
?When everyone saw this person, it was Shibata Katsuie's subordinate and Ridokuyama Norihide.
Tokuyama Norihide raised his head and saw it was Shibata Katsuie, with tears streaming down his face. The crying voice said: "Master Repairman, the outer pill was attacked by the Takeda Army. The Takeda Army was too numerous to stop themall my subordinates died in the battle"
Before Tokuyama Norihide finished speaking, he slapped Shibata Katsuie hard in the face.
After Shibata Katsuie blocked it with a palm. Another hard backhand palm was withdrawn.
Shibata Katsuie¡¯s slap was extremely powerful, and Tokuyama Norihide was pushed to the ground from a side. The slap was so dizzy that blood came from the corner of his mouth.
Shibata Katsuie shouted in a deep voice, "Please escort this person to me. I will ask Antoden to punish him later."
"The outer pill has not been breached yet! It won't take long for our reinforcements to arrive and annihilate Li Xiao's army."
"Those who move forward will live, those who retreat will die. Anyone who retreats through the gate will be put to death!"
When Shibata Katsuie gave an order, Otemon wailed and begged for mercy.
But Shibata Katsuie looks ruthless. The ashigaru armor was taken off, and the sharp sword in the hand of the samurai on the side was raised high, and then slashed down with the sword.
Suddenly there were heads rolling in.
On the hillside north of Beizhizhuang City, two flags were erected and flying high.
"Why haven't you scooped out the outer pills from Beizhizhuang City yet?"
? ?The generals of the platoon were kneeling in front of the three flag-level generals of the Takeda Army, Jinbo Nagakenori, Hashiba Hidenaga, and Uchijima Uchiri.
This time they were entrusted by Li Xiao with the important task of attacking Kitanojo Gaimaru.
General Terajima Kisada saw Jinbo Nagaken getting angry, and immediately lowered his head and said: "Reporting to my lord, we had already broken into Sotomaru, but Shibata's army's counterattack suddenly intensified, and the soldiers were driven out again. Now the two armies are in front of Sotomaru." In the melee.¡±
"You bastard!" Kambo Nagaken couldn't help but cursed.
At this time, an envoy with a small flag galloped in.
The envoy knelt down in front of Jinbo Nagaken and reported: "My lord, please ask Jinbao-sama why the outer pill has not been scooped out yet."
Shenbao Changxian was shocked and said decisively: "Please reply to my lord, before noon, our army will definitely scoop up the outer pill."
The headquarters of the Takeda Army.
After Li Xiao received the reply from Kambo Nagaken, he saw Kambo Nagaken's main formation moving towards the foot of Kitazozhuang Castle.
????????????????? Apparently it was Kambo Nagaken himself who went into battle in person.
Even the general was dispatched, and it seemed that Nagaken Kambo was also trying his best.
But Li Xiao looked at it from the top of the mountain.
Kitanojo Castle is covered in the artillery fire of the Takeda Army.
On the horse road leading from the Inner Maru to the Outer Maru, Eryanjin's flags are surging rapidly.
Large swaths of Shibata Army's Ashigaru Masaru poured out from inside, threw themselves into the outer pill, and joined the fight with Takeda Army.
In such a battle, both sides fought almost inch by inch, inch by inch.
The Takeda Army's advance was extremely slow and almost came to a standstill.
Li Xiao immediately said: "Order Rui Costa to gather all the cannons on the fort and face a city wall to the east. You want to blast a gap for me."
The envoy Fan De ordered him to go.
Soon after, the roar of the Takeda Army¡¯s big tubes stopped.
But just a moment later, artillery fire rang out again in the east of Beizhizhuang City.
Li Xiao raised his telescope and looked around, only to see where the Takeda Army's artillery fire was concentrated.
Countless earth and rocks flew into the sky.
"Send the order for Kamioka to attack to the east of the city!"
Li Xiao said word for word.
Since Hideharu Kano became the deputy general of Tango and Wakasa Corps, General Kamioka Bei was replaced by Otani Yoshitsugi.
Kamioka Beino is Li Xiao¡¯s starting force, and is known as the most elite of the Hida Etsuchu Corps.
??The generals are as powerful as the island, the powerful Yu Chai, and the tall tiger in the Fuji Hall. Kano Hideharu has successively become the banner-level general of the Chuzhen side.
?? And Yoshitsugi Otani was able to come from behind and overpower Yamamoto Kanzo and Ichiyanagi Naosue to become the general of Kamioka Bei, which is certainly his own merit.
After receiving Li Xiao¡¯s military order, Otani Yoshitsugi led his army and quickly moved to the city.
Suddenly Li Xiao heard a roar in the distance.
?With the unremitting efforts of Datong Bei. Finally, a gap of several meters opened in the east of the city.
"very good!"
Li Xiao clenched his fist, and now Shibata's army gathered in the north of the city to fight fiercely with Jinbo Nagaken and the others.
The defense in the east of the city is very inadequate, and now is a good opportunity to break the city.
The person responsible for attacking the east of the city was none other than Takatora Todo, the flag-bearer who led the archers.
When Todo Takatora saw the city wall in front of him, a big hole of several meters was created by the big cannon. At that moment, the banner stood up from the horse.
At this moment, Todo Takatora seemed to see the position of the 100,000-level daimyo, and waved to him from a distance.
Suddenly, Todo Takatora looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, saying: "What a Jimbo family, Hashiba family. The Uchijima family is not worth looking at in front of me. The first achievement of destroying the city is my uncle Todo Takatora,"
"Everyone, the opportunity has come for you to be rewarded for your meritorious service. If you want a woman from the fields, just give it your all."
Having said this, General Todo Takatora pressed down hard on the military equipment in his hand.
At the moment Todo Takatora gave the order, he suddenly saw a military force, rushing ahead of his military force and breaking into the walls of Beizhizhuang first.
"Asshole, who dares to take away the credit from my uncle Todo?" At this moment, Todo Takatora shouted angrily.
"Reporting to my lord, it's Kamioka Bei!"
"What?" Todo Takatora slammed his fist. That 1.9-meter-tall body looked particularly terrifying.
"What the hell is Heima Otani? When I became the lord, he was still farming. Today he dares to get ahead of me." Todo Takatora's face was ashen and he shouted loudly, "Come in!"
All of Toudo Takatora's troops in the east of the city were deployed.
Todo Takatora himself was also fully clothed and carried a big gun in his hand to fight in person.
The Shibata Army Corps located in the east of the city is already lacking in strength.
When Otani Yoshitsugi's Ashigaru troops climbed up the city wall, less than a hundred people came to stop them.
Kamiokabe's standing preparations are not only excellent in Western square formation tactics, but also excellent in daily training tactics.
The two sides fought hard for a while at the city wall.
Finally, Kamioka prepares, and the Todo Takatora team breaks into Soimaru together.
And at the same time.
On the side of Azuchi Castle.
Morinagako is leading the forward of the Oda Army, rushing to the Echizen direction day and night to support Shibata Katsuie who is besieging Kitanojo Castle.
Along the way, Chief Sen can lead a 600-horse regiment to advance quickly.
Riding on a war horse, Sen Changke has a determined gaze.
After the battle of Nagashino, not only Mori Nagaka's younger brother Mori Ranmaru, but also Nobunaga died in the battle on Kawakamiyama.
There are also two other younger brothers, Mori Nagaka and Mori Changtaka. Because of their beauty, they, along with Mori Ranmaru, were named Nobunaga.
As a result, in Nagashino's battle, Mori Nagaka's three younger brothers died together.
Morinaga was so sad that he had already regarded Li Xiao, who had killed Lord Nobunaga and his three younger brothers, and the Hida Echu Army as his biggest enemies.
So Oda Nobutada ordered to come to the aid of Kitanosou.
Morinagako took the lead and led his family's horse team as the vanguard to rush towards Beizhizhuang.
Looking in the direction of Beizhizhuang, Sen Changke stood on his horse and said in a deep voice: "Before sunset, my cavalry team can rush to Beizhizhuang City. By then, Li Xiao, you will be in a situation where you are attacked from both sides."
When Morinaga was galloping, suddenly the cavalry team in front of him reined in their horses.
Just when Mori Changke gave the order, he suddenly saw that the bridge on the river in front of him had been destroyed in advance.
The road leading to Beizhizhuang is cut off. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
