Previous page Return to Catalog Next page
- The city gate has fallen, which frightened the Okazaki defenders stationed here. They didn't know if they would be able to withstand such a fierce enemy after the city gate fell.
Three rounds of shelling have completely wiped out the courage of the Okazaki defenders.
Now, facing the Second Corps, which had already launched a charge, they no longer had the courage to fight.
The defenders on top of the city had been basically disabled in the third round of shelling. The Okazaki defenders who were lucky enough to be in reserve under the city were in panic at this time.
"Line up! Line up! Prepare to meet the enemy, hold the weapons in your hands tightly, don't panic!"
Although the soldiers were very frightened, they still clenched their weapons amidst the shouts of some generals and then lined up.
After all, these samurai masters still have a great influence on them.
At the city gate, a group of more than 800 spear militiamen lined up, and then formed a spear formation here with a look of fear.
The gate of Okazaki Castle is not big, basically it can only accommodate ten people walking at a time.
Therefore, these hastily organized militiamen thrust their spears here and really caused a lot of trouble to the charging Second Corps.
With such a big city gate, if the soldiers of the Second Corps rush in with too many people, it will be useless at all and occupy the limited space. It will be difficult for them to even turn around.
" However, if there are fewer people, they really have no way to deal with the dense spear array. Before they could rush forward, they were pierced by the opponent's spears and fell to the ground.
In this way, the soldiers of the Second Corps launched two or three charges, leaving dozens of corpses behind and driving them out.
After the Okazaki defenders in the city repelled the Second Corps, their morale finally recovered a little.
"Oh, I didn't expect that the enemy is not so scary.
Although I didn¡¯t know what weapons they used just now, they looked very powerful. But when we first engaged in the battle, it seemed that the opponent was not that powerful.
¡°Look, didn¡¯t they just leave corpses all over the ground and then retreated with no choice at all?
Many militiamen thought the same thing after the Second Corps was repelled.
At this time, Kawabe Yuuji had already arrived with the first regiment of the Imperial Alliance Army and a thousand imperial infantry. When he found that the second regiment had been pushed back, he immediately rode over, raised the whip in his hand and whipped it hard. On a guy close to me.
Snapped!
The whip of the riding whip was so severe.
"Why are you retreating! Have you received the order to retreat? I can't believe that you dare to disobey orders on the battlefield. I think you don't want to live anymore."
In fact, Yuuji Kawabe saw the battle at the city gate just now. The reason why he said this was just to scare these people.
Sure enough, when the soldiers of the Second Corps who had withdrawn heard what Yuji said by Kawabe, they immediately complained with mournful faces: "Sir, it's not that we want to retreat, it's really that we have no way at all.", A guy who was elected as a sub-boss in the Second Corps came over to defend Yuji Kawabe at this time.
"Hmph! I don't care what the reason is. You should fight to the death if you don't get the order to retreat."
Kawabe Yuuji narrowed his eyes and said in a very unkind tone.
¡°My lord, please spare my life, my lord, please spare my life, please give us another chance.¡±
These words really scared these guys, because they saw that the genetic soldiers of the Imperial Army who were following Yuji Kawabe had pointed their flintlock muzzles at them. I mean to kill them with just a wave of my hand.
Faced with this situation, how could they not be afraid?
Of course, Yuji Kawabe was just scaring them, and did not intend to actually kill them.
After all, after entering Okazaki Castle, the soldiers of the Second Corps will have to fight in the streets with the troops stationed in Okazaki Castle, so they are still of great use, right?
"Everyone, get up. You are lucky. I am in a good mood. However, I have remembered the mistakes you just made, and you will also be punished. But I have a lot of money, and I am ready to give you a chance to atone for your sins." ."
Kawabe Yuuji was feeling proud in his heart as he pretended to say to the soldiers of the Second Corps.
"Your Excellency, we are willing to atone for our sins, we are willing. Please give us just oneMinglu, give us a chance. "
Seeing that they didn¡¯t seem to be punished anymore, these guys finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as you don¡¯t get executed, everything is fine.
Kawabe Yuuji had seen the battle at the city gate just now. He knew very well that it would be unwise to charge in a place as big as the city gate.
Therefore, the defenders who are resisting over there must be killed before they can enter Okazaki Castle peacefully.
At this time, the defenders at the top of Okazaki Castle were basically destroyed. In a short period of time, the defenders here were unable to effectively organize their troops to board the city, so this was a good opportunity for them.
"Imperial infantry come out, check ammunition, shoot!"
Now, there is not much time left for them, so Yuji Kawabe must capture the area near the city gate immediately before the defenders recover.
"Otherwise, if the defenders come to their senses and organize new troops to wait on the city, they will be in great danger to themselves.
Not to mention anything else, just by organizing a team of archers, they can cause a lot of losses to themselves.
Therefore, Yuji Kawabe must not let such a thing happen.
Fortunately, the commander of the genetic soldiers was very smart and did not need Yuji Kawabe to direct him at all. He made a judgment immediately. That is to defeat or kill the Okazaki defenders opposite the city gate and solve this problem for everyone.
The opponent has no long-range attack weapons, only spears.
For the Imperial Alliance soldiers of the Second Corps and the First Corps, this spear formation is still very threatening.
However, for Imperial Army soldiers, those on the opposite side are easy to deal with.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Boom! Boom!
There was no need for five-stage shooting. One thousand Imperial Army genetic soldiers walked to the city gate in groups of ten and began to shoot at the opposite side. Then they left and were replaced by the people behind.
After more than ten rounds of this, the enemy on the opposite side can no longer hold on.
With a strange cry from someone unknown, the Okazaki garrison defending opposite the city gate completely collapsed. The soldiers dropped their weapons and began to flee backwards.
After seeing this situation, Yuji Kawabe quickly ordered to rush into Okazaki Castle, and then seized the defense facilities on the city wall, as well as the buildings near the city gate and began to establish positions.
At this point, Okazaki Castle allowed the imperial army to enter in less than half an hour.
After entering Okazaki Castle, Tokugawa Kayo, who was holding the battle at the rear, and Hattori Onizou and the remaining thousand Imperial Army troops began to slowly walk over.
And when Yuji Kawabe entered the city, he began to tell the soldiers of the Second Corps what he had said to his men before.
"Destroy the stubborn enemies in the city. If you fight bravely, you will be rewarded. I said that after conquering Okazaki Castle, you will be free to loot for a day. If you also want to get such a reward, then just kill the enemy with all your strength."
As soon as Yuji Kawabe's words fell, the soldiers of the Second Corps who were originally a little downcast and uneasy immediately became energetic.
Although they are also from Kyushu, what does it matter?
As long as they can steal money and women, they don't care.
With a cheer, the soldiers of the Second Corps, eyes filled with flames of desire, instantly increased their fighting power, and then without mobilization, they began to attack the city center along the straight street at the city gate.
At this time, Tokugawa Kayo and Hattori Onizou also walked in with a thousand Imperial Army troops.
"Miss, there are still many enemies in the city, so you can't go any deeper. Although we have entered Okazaki Castle now, it will still take a lot of time to eliminate the enemies in the city. So, Miss, please come in Stop here and wait until we capture Fujita High School sophomore before we make any further calculations."
Kawabe Yuuji walked to Tokugawa Kayo's side and said to her.
Tokugawa Kayo nodded. Of course she understood how dangerous Okazaki Castle was at this time, and she also knew that there were many enemies in the city at this time.
Therefore, of course she will agree to Kawabe Yuuji¡¯s proposal.
You must know that now they have only defeated one of the four gates of Okazaki Castle. This means that there are still three defenders in Okazaki Castle, and the enemy with 10,000 people is still there.
If these enemies cannot be eliminated, Okazaki Castle will still be dangerous to them.
"Miss, our Iga Ninja Army has to start doing things now. Right now.The battlefield above will be left to Yuji-sama. I will immediately order the ninjas to deal with the generals in the city. As long as they are dealt with, the soldiers will not be able to form effective resistance. This will be very beneficial for us to quickly occupy Okazaki Castle. of. "
Hattori Onizou suggested to Tokugawa Kayo at this time.
Of course Tokugawa Kayo agrees with Hattori Kizo's proposal. She is not a fool and of course she knows that this matter is very beneficial to her side.
With the consent of Tokugawa Kayo, Hattori Kizo immediately made arrangements.
More than three hundred Iga ninja troops sneaked away and disappeared.
Not long after, there were screams not far away, as well as people's loud shouts and the sound of some weapons clashing.
Of course, this cannot be the movement caused by the Iga ninjas. It is very likely that the Second Corps has begun to contact and engage in battle with the enemy.
And if the ninjas took action, they wouldn't make such a big noise.
"Miss, I will now lead the First Corps to assist the Second Corps. At the same time, I will also bring a thousand Imperial Army troops, so Miss, you must be careful here."
Kawabe Yuuji said goodbye. He was going to go immediately to pick up the men of the Second Corps who had already begun fighting with the enemy. After all, this second corps is slightly different in terms of equipment and fighting spirit.
And there are many enemies in the city.
Without the support of their own fresh army and the Imperial Army with sharp weapons, they would not be able to persist for a long time.
You must know that the Second Corps also uses cold weapons, and their number is still very small.
After finishing speaking, Yuji Kawabe left here with his First Corps and a thousand Imperial Army troops.
When Yuji Kawabe left, Tokugawa Kayo and Hattori Kizo started chatting.
"It's really unexpected. I originally thought it would take a long time for us to conquer Okazaki Castle, but to my surprise, in less than an hour, we had already entered Okazaki Castle."
Thinking of what he had experienced, Tokugawa Kayo looked as if he was still in a dream. He simply couldn't believe what he saw and experienced.
Hearing this, Hattori Kizo responded: "Miss, in fact, these are all because of those artillery. These artillery are powerful and very lethal. If the artillery hadn't destroyed the city gate, then if we wanted to enter Okazaki Castle, we would still have It¡¯s very difficult. Especially the defenders who were stationed at the city gate just now. Just dealing with them will cost you a lot.¡±
Hattori Kizo has been observing the progress of the battle, so he has not let go of everything that happened.
For example, when the Imperial Army did not take action, the fierce battle between the Second Corps and the defenders near the city gate gave him an idea.
At that time, the Second Corps charged three times, but it did not shake the enemy's position at all, and it itself paid a heavy price.
The terrain at the city gate is very narrow, which is not conducive to the army launching a charge. In such a terrain, if the enemy's soldiers are well-trained, they can even eliminate them in a leisurely manner.
You know, it is precisely because the city gate is very narrow, and corpses alone can become a problem blocking progress again.
Without the Imperial Army, it would have been impossible for more than 3,000 of them to rush in just by launching a charge with cold weapon troops.
The dense spear of the other party is standing up, how many people are going to die.
Thanks to the Imperial Army's action and a volley of guns, the defenders on the opposite side with their spears were defeated.
Otherwise, it is obviously impossible for them to enter Okazaki Castle so smoothly.
Even if we can finally get in, we don¡¯t know how much it will cost.
This shows how terrifying the weapons of the Imperial Army are.
If the army of the Song Empire were equipped with such powerful weapons, then the assessment of the Song Empire would be much improved.
A powerful empire like this must hold its thighs tightly.
Of course, this is Hattori Kizo¡¯s personal opinion.
As for Tokugawa Kayo, what she was thinking about was how to make the Tokugawa family established in Kyushu. After doing all this, she could be considered as fulfilling her wish.
"Miss, I think after taking control of the Miyazaki area, you should think about how to contact the crown prince. For the future of the Tokugawa family, I wonder if you"
HattoriOnizo thought about it and said something to Tokugawa Kayo. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!) - Didn't finish reading?
