    Fortunately, the Kira Navy's iron artillery team was always suppressing the sides of the Awaji Anzai ship. The counterattacks aimed at the ship's side quickly silenced the firing ports of both iron cannons. General Oda quickly directed the remaining archery teams to quickly approach both sides.  He felt that these ships were likely to bring great danger to them.  "Quick! Let the iron artillery team attack! Don't stop the archery team! Shoot those people!" General Oda stood on the top of the deck and shouted, which quickly attracted the attention of the Kira Navy iron artillery team. A team of iron cannons  Ashigaru discussed it and locked the muzzle of the gun on the guy who looked like a high-ranking samurai.  "Bang!" The rumbling sound caused the lead bullets in the barrel to eject at high speed, and the flames of the gunpowder brought up the smoke. In addition to the disadvantage of choking, the whole body was filled with smoke and felt like being in a fairyland. The iron cannon was very good.  Young people are happy to enjoy this brief special feeling every time they fire a gun.  "Puff, puff, puff!" General Oda suddenly trembled all over like a puppet with broken strings, shaking and falling to the ground. Several samurai rushed towards him in a hail of bullets and yelled: "Oda-don!" General Oda raised his head with his remaining consciousness.  He touched the wet spot on his chest with his hand, and when he saw the bright red on his hand, he seemed to want to say something, and finally he tilted his head and breathed out.  "Avenge Oda-don! Crash into that ship!" The Awaji samurai rushed down the cabin frantically, swung their swords to drive away the Awaji sailors, and shook the oars desperately. At this time, a deafening roar came from the outer deck of the Anzha ship.  , several decks were completely blown to pieces. The huge air wave set off wooden plank fragments and exploded in all directions. The nearby sailors and samurai were killed on the spot.  "Asshole! Here's the baked jade! Take it out and fight back!" Someone reminded, the samurai who were dizzy by the shock wave of the explosion thought of their weapons again, and quickly took out the baked jade and lit it.  It doesn¡¯t matter if they are thrown out.  Immediately, an unlucky ship was bombed.  Then the Kira navy's ship was lifted into the sky by a huge explosion, and naturally all the members of the ship were dead.  "Shingoro! Damn the Miyoshi family! I will fight with you!" The Kira Marines on the other ship saw the Sekifune next to them suddenly being blown into a huge fireball soaring into the sky. Their eyes were splitting when they saw this.  , cursed angrily, picked up the baked jade, lit it, and threw it into the gap. Huge explosions and rising flames continued to devour the lives in the boat.  This time they would not make the same mistake again. Baked jade was thrown into the gap one after another. The constant explosions gradually suppressed the screams, but after a while, a series of explosions suddenly occurred in the cabin.  It seems that the Awaji Navy's Bairaudama also suffered an explosion. The huge explosion exploded the entire cabin of the ship, and the hull tilted to one side and gradually sank into the water.  Slowly, the cabin of the boat was swallowed up by the river water, and bright red blood emerged in the water. The murderous roasting team could no longer stop. When they saw the fire of iron cannons coming from the oncoming Awajiguan ship, they immediately changed direction and pounced on it.  But a moment later a violent explosion and screams sounded again, and a more brutal fight gradually began.  "The Bakurao team acted without permission and has left the formation!" "Asshole! Takeuchi Kuroemon is really unreliable!" Kuki Shigetaka hammered the flagpole hard.  Immediately ordered: "Catch up, we must not let the Awaji navy eat our roasting team!" "Yes!" The two Anzha ships began to move slowly with dozens of ships of different sizes.  Soon eight fireships were still burning. At this time, the Baolao team was fighting against seven or eight Kanfune ships surrounded by fireships. The sound of iron cannons and the explosion of Baolao jade from time to time made the scene even more chaotic. Kira Naval Forces  The iron artillery team immediately reloaded and counterattacked, gradually bringing the situation back. The Awaji navy's Kanfune was trapped in a situation where they could not advance or retreat, and their firepower was restricted and could only be passively beaten.  The ships of the Awaji Navy were bombed and sunk one by one, and Xiaozao of the Awaji Navy swarmed up. It was not worth the gain to deal with Xiaozao with the roasted jade, so the roasting team gradually could not withstand Xiaozao's siege and suffered heavy casualties. Kuuki  Chonglong immediately waved the order flag to let the Baolao team retreat. Fortunately, after the fierce battle just now, the enthusiasm of the Baolao team gradually cooled down, and they quickly followed the order and retreated.  The Awaji Navy seized the opportunity and wanted to attack. The Kira Navy's Kohaya fleet immediately drove their own boats to block it. Kohaya had no problem with Kohaya, especially with the suppression of bows and arrows and iron cannons. Soon they were  Let the Kira Navy take advantage, but the Kanfune behind it is different. Kohaya and Sekifune are completely on the same level. To deal with the Sekifune, it is as eye-catching as a blocker. In the Awaji Navy, the Kanfune is constantly used.  The shooting and impact of iron cannons soon brought a devastating blow to Xiaozao's team, and those who fell into the water in Xiaozao had almost no chance of survival.  This kind of sacrifice is not meaningless. In this kind of fight without fear of death, the back row of Kanfune is finally in place. This is the continuation of the situation that Kozaya team sacrificed their own lives to maintain, but Awaji Sui  The army's attack was still fierce, with iron cannons and bows and arrows firing back and forth, and even the ship was directly rammed and boarded for hand-to-hand combat. Under such circumstances, it was difficult for the iron artillery team on the Anzhai ship to play its role.  ? ?We can only shoot at the back row of ships to gain a more favorable combat space for ourselves. Even if there is iron cannon fire suppression, this rotation tactic still faces a huge threat, especially when the barrel of the iron cannon is fired until it is hot.  The only way to do this is to pour river water on it for forced cooling, which is a waste of time and puts huge pressure on the ships ahead.  Soon, four Kansai ships could not withstand the attack of the Awaji navy and were completely wiped out. Before the Awaji navy could be happy for a long time, they soon became targets of rocket attacks. The rockets poured down on them including those that were destroyed.  Several ships, including the Kira Iseki ship, were all set on fire, and the ships of the Awaji Navy were crowded together and could not turn around.  Because there were burning fire ships on both sides, they could only be ignited by rockets and turned into a sea of ??fire. The sailors on the ship could only jump into the river to avoid the fierce fire, but they became live targets in the water and were slowed down by the archery team.  Slowly aim and shoot one by one. Even if the Awaji Marines behind clearly saw their companions calling for help on the water, they could not rush to rescue them, which made them very angry.  Kuuki Shigetaka sent several more Kansai ships to block the waterway, which led to a situation that the Awaji Navy was least afraid of. The Awaji Navy often needed several Kansai ships to be bombed and sunk, in exchange for a few Kansai ships and a half from the Kira Navy.  However, the Anzhafune hidden behind can shoot calmly from a high position, which is simply target practice.  The war lasted for an hour and a half and had caused heavy losses to nearly half of the Awaji navy. Seeing such a bad battle situation, even Anzai Fuyayasu could not sit still.  "What a cunning plan! What a vicious heart! Is this the power of the Kira Navy? I, Anzhai Fuyakasu, have seen it!" Anzhai Fuyangyasu roared angrily. This good-tempered general is always kind to people and cherishes his soldiers.  He had a good reputation as a kind general, but he could no longer sit still in the face of such heavy losses.  The Awaji samurai also had a bad temper now. This water battle is definitely lost now, and there will be no better if it continues: "Lord! What should we do?" Anzhai Fuyang was silent for a long time, gritting his teeth several times.  He waved his arms, and finally turned into a sigh: "Retreat immediately! Leave the seeds for our Awaji Navy Army!"  The smoke filled the air on Amanaseura, and the raging flames roasted the ashigaru. The corners of their mouths were cracked and bleeding.  He was sweating profusely and kept pulling the bow string. He didn't feel the wear and tear on the cage hand, and his fingers were scratched. He just repeated the cycle of mechanically pulling the bow and shooting arrows until all the arrows he put on were consumed. At this time, the fire on the river gradually disappeared.  Only then did they realize that the Awaji navy had retreated at some point, leaving only the wreckage of a ship on the river, with a corner of the sunken ship still exposed on the river.  "We are victorious! Victory!" The ashigaru of the Kira Navy immediately burst into cheers. The Awaji Navy was finally defeated. After the hard battle, five Kanfune ships disappeared forever, and twelve Kanfune ships were severely damaged.  In addition, at the cost of the destruction of twenty-three Kohaya ships, the Awaji navy was finally defeated.  In the Battle of Amanaseura, the Awaji Navy was burned and lost more than 60 large and small ships. Among them, one Anzha ship was lost and 32 Seki ships were lost. There were few ships that escaped early in the morning, and the Awaji Navy quietly escaped.  Retreating would mean that the Miyoshi family's water warfare offensive strategy was completely bankrupt, and the Yodogawa blockade could no longer be maintained.  Because Anzai Fuyasu did not have the confidence to continue fighting guerrillas against the Kizugawa navy with half-disabled defeated troops, not to mention the fact that everyone was pushing for the wall to fall, the Awaji navy was breaking the rules and was ahead, and there were many people on the Yodo River who were adding insult to injury, and even  If the Kira Marines need to come forward, the Awaji Marines will pay a heavier price.  On the evening of July 14th, Anzai Fuyayasu and several followers left the navy fleet that was gradually withdrawing from Awaji, and came to the camp outside Shengryuji Temple in person to plead guilty. The tent was brightly lit, and the Miyoshi family present  The samurai's face was serious, because the bad news that came one after another put Miyoshi Changqing in a very bad mood. He lost his temper from the afternoon until Anzhai Fuyang came. If the lord loses his temper, the life of the ministers will certainly be difficult.  Anzai Toyasu bowed his head respectfully, and said in a self-blaming tone: "I, Toyasu, have shouldered the great trust of the lord! I really have no words to continue to serve as the leader of the Awaji Navy. Please allow me to resign from my post and become a wealthy man in order to serve those who died in the war.  Awajijiro prays for blessings!" Miyoshi Changkei said calmly: "Why did Dongkang say this? You and I are the same flesh and blood brothers. Since Izun left, there are only three of us brothers. Don't say anything.  Just saying that is so frustrating! I don¡¯t have any other requests. Don¡¯t we still have the Awaji navy? Just bring them over and continue the blockade!¡±  "Absolutely not! The Awaji navy left behind is the foundation for maintaining our Miyoshi family in the eastern Seto Inland Sea, Osaka Bay, and Kumano waters! They are also the maritime maintainers for our Miyoshi family to dominate the Kinai. If they are sent out, they will be sent back.  There is no way a thousand remnants can maintain the advantage of the Awaji Navy!"
