Samurai of the Takeda Family

Rocky Castle.

　　 The sky was grey, and it was cloudy on the second day of the Battle of Iwasaki Castle.

In the Tengu Maru, the flag of Echigo Army Uesugina stands tall, and countless black-clothed and black-armored Echigo samurai foot hedgehogs gather in the city. The mountain breeze blows, and the flags flap and flap like ocean waves.

　　 Kanazawa Keichi, Shinbata Nagatoshi is holding the Dachi at his waist, standing in the highest samurai house in Tengumaru, looking at Ninomaru in the mountains of Iwagashiyama.

　　 Attack from Tengumaru, there are two horse roads leading to Honmaru at the top of Iwagaki Mountain, passing through Ninomaru and Nakajo respectively.

　　 The horse trail from Zhongcheng is very difficult to walk, the terrain is difficult and dangerous, only a few people are allowed to pass, and there are cliffs on both sides.

The Ninomaru road, although the attack distance is a little longer, is a relatively spacious mountain road, but the disadvantage is that if you attack Ninomaru from Tengumaru, you will suffer from Nakajo, Honmaru, and Ninomaru at the same time. In itself, three-sided firepower attack.

　　 Which route to choose to attack is no more difficult choice for the Echigo Army.

　　 In the end, Kanazawa Keichi and Shinbata Nagatoshi discussed with Uesugi Kenshin, and finally agreed to use Ninomaru as the main attack direction and Ninomaru direction to use a feint attack to disperse the pressure on the Ninomaru attacking troops.

　　 Gan Chai Jingchi, Xinfa Tian Changtun's subordinates are all ready to go after yesterday's replenishment, and they are all fresh troops.

　　 The same new force also has a shortcoming. They are not experienced in attacking a fortified city like Iwasaki Castle. In the beginning, they must use human lives in exchange for lessons.

This time Kanzaki Kazuchi set the Ninomaru Ichiban gun reward rate as the first to break in. No matter what the samurai is, he can get four hundred stones to know the action, which is exactly the two of the rewards of yesterday. Times.

　　 Under such great rewards, the Echigo generals boiled over, each gearing up and waiting for the opportunity to attack the city.

　　 And Kanhao Jingchi is also confident that with the bravery and skillfulness of the Echigo Army, and the fierceness of such a high reward, it is enough for them to display 200% of their combat power.

　　 Ganzuo Jingchi is convinced that Ninomaru will definitely be available today!

　　 At Chenshi, as the mountain mist dissipated, Kanzhao Jingchi finally gave the order to the Echihou Army.

　　 The roar of the Ninomaru Iron Cannon immediately awakened Takeda Katsuyai who was sleeping lightly.

　　 Takeda Katsuyori's first reaction was to reach out to touch the samurai sword beside his pillow. After hearing that the gunshot was still some distance away, he felt a little relieved.

　　 He stayed up all night last night, and only slept shallowly for less than two hours until dawn.

　　 He walked to the north side of the castle tower, and when he set up the windows, what was blasted into his ears was the hustle and bustle of the sky. What he saw before him was the lineup that was like a mountain like a sea when the Echigo Army came out.

In a small Tengu Maru in the district, I don't know how many Echihou troops are waiting to go out, and they are standing there.

　　 From the tower of the castle tower, looking down on the horse path leading Tengumaru to Ninomaru, a pair of black armors are advancing one after another, carrying a shield, and flocking to Ninomaru like a dense colony of ants.

　　 Then the Ninomaru bend wheel, and the iron cannons on the arrow scull sounded like rain. However, the Echigo Army's foot soldiers seemed to have been ordered to die, ignoring the comrades who were constantly being killed by iron cannons, bows and arrows, carrying the shields and soil bags on their backs, and began to fill the Horikiri in front of Ninomaru.

　　 The Echigo Army kept hitting shots and fell down with arrows, but immediately followed by Ashikaga took his bag and filled Horikiri forward. One by one, the Echigo army seemed to be desperate, and they rushed to the Ninomaru stationed by the Takeda army.

Just when the Echigo Army launched one wave after another against Ninomaru, and at this time, Midtown, and Honmaru's side, the iron cannon team near the curved wheel on the Ninomaru side, also Simultaneously sounded.

　　 Under three volleys, the Echigo Army who attacked Ninomaru finally suffered massive casualties.

　　 escaped this wave of bombardment, and the surviving Echigo army seemed to finally start to realize how terrifying death is. Only then did they converge a lot, hiding behind the baffle, not daring to come forward.

　　 The same Echigo Army has sufficient strength and even spare power. Chaoten Goumaru sent all the troops to the horse road in Midtown to attack.

Take out the Trinidad and see the flag of the sergeant flying in the Tengu Maru. Takeda Katsuyori knows that the sergeant of the Echihou Army in charge of the siege is Kanzaki Keichi, Shinbata Nagatoshi, the name of the two men who are brave and brave. He is in Kai At that time, I had heard of it a long time ago.

　　 The same strength of their troops is also the elite of the Echihou Army.

Takeda Katsuyai was on the castle tower, and roughly estimated that the siege force deployed by the Echigo Army alone today is between two to three times that of the defending Takeda Army. What's more, this is only 17,000 Echigo Army. It's just part of a huge military force.

　　 How many days can we hold on?

　　 Now even Takeda Katsuyori, who has always been confident, has this question in his mind.

　　 Immediately, Takeda Katsuyai snorted heavily, no matter how many days he said, as Li Xiao said, if Uesugi Teruto wants to win Iwasaki Castle, he must spend 10,000 lives.

　　The general of the Takeda Army stationed in Midtown is Dai Xiong Chaoxiu, and Ninomaru is in charge of Li Xiao himself.

　　 The fierce battle of the siege battle lasted for a whole morning, with the powerful firepower of the iron cannon team, and the cooperation of Midtown and Honmaru.

　　 The Echigo Army attacked Ninomaru, where Li Xiao was located, and dropped more than two hundred corpses in one morning, but made no progress. They can't even fill in Horikiri.

　　 It’s no wonder that Kanjitsu Keichi, Shinbata Nagatoshi, and the two of them, on the favorable terrain conditions for the defenders, Ninomaru was twice as difficult as the Tengumaru attacked by Ishibe Katsunaga and Nakajo Fujisuke yesterday.

　　 Li Xiao can fully imagine that the opposite of Kanji Jingchi, the new Tian Nagatoshi, facing Kenjo Ninomaru, looked like a thunderous, but he was helpless.

　　 And in fact, after the great Tibetan Chang'an coordinated and managed the ammunition and arrows of the iron cannon bows and arrows last night, the consumption of ammunition and arrows today is much lower than that of yesterday.

　　 With the current use of the iron guns, bows and arrows of the Takeda Army, Li Xiao predicts that if it is used in accordance with this trend, it can be supported for another three days.

　　 Li Xiao praised him for the outstanding performance of the Tibetan Changan, which made him, a young man who has always been eager to stand out, very excited.

　　 For Dazang Changan, whether as a close-knower or a former ape musician, he doesn't want to be a pleasing jester in the eyes of the lord, but he is also eager to prove himself from the other side. Because he had no talent in martial arts, he went to Hakata-no-cho in Kyushu to learn mining skills from a Nanban merchant.

　　 But I didn't expect that under Takeda Katsuyoshi's command, he discovered his own ability in management and coordination.

　　 As long as the Tibetan Changan can survive this Iwagaki Castle Battle, in the future, he must be an important retainer of Takeda Katsurai's clan.

　　 But the three extra days are still far from enough for the defender. Just as Li Xiao was calculating how to save more iron cannon and ammunition, he could support it for a few more days.

　　 At this moment, the sky was filled with dark clouds, electric lights flickered, and thunder sounded.

　　 Seeing this scene, even Li Xiao's face changed dramatically at this moment.

　　 "It's broken, this time the iron cannon and ammunition can really be saved." Li Xiao looked up at the sky and said to himself.

　　 The same Echigo Army is located in Tengumaru's main formation.

　　 Ganzuo Kechi, Shinbata Nagatoshi, from the house, saw a scene of death and injury in front of Ninomaru's front and back army.

　　 At this moment, they all can't wait for them. When they break the city, they will take all the iron cannons of the Takeda army and put them to death one by one.

　　 For the Echigo Army, the damage of iron cannons is more than that of bows and arrows. Bows and arrows can also avoid blocking, even in the body, and the armor can be weakened.

　　 But the iron cannon is completely inevitable~www.wuxiamtl.com~ It is unstoppable, and it is a hole in the iron armor.

Facing the suppression of iron cannons, even the brave Echigo samurai would not dare to play with his own life. He would rather be hacked to death from the front by the enemy samurai, and would be willing to be shot to death by this invisible thing. Died completely unknown.

　　 At the moment, Niigata Nagatoshi is extremely worried. The difficult terrain of Ninomaru and the terrifying iron cannons of the Takeda Army make them difficult.

　　 They are even thinking that if the military is damaged so severely today, they can't break into Takeda Army Ninomaru one step.

　　 Facing the anger of Lord Uesugi Teruhu, should they cut their stomachs on the spot to atone for their sins?

　　 Just as the two of them were at a loss, thunder was loud in the sky. They looked at each other and they all saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

　　 Sweet and bad Jingchi, Shibata Nagatoshi rushed out of the house, and the air was full of damp and fishy smells.

　　 They held the handrails in their hands, watching the lightning in the sky, wandering like golden snakes, thunder roared loudly, and then a strong wind blew, and heavy raindrops crackled down in an instant.

　　 Between heaven and earth, in an instant, heavy rain poured down.

　　 "Heaven helps me too." Gan Lao Jing Chi sighed up to the sky.

Then Kanzhao Jingchi turned his head, facing the heavy rain, a large group of Echigo Army's foot soldiers who were on standby waved their hands, and said murderously: "Takeda Army’s iron cannons have now become a pile of scrap iron. Koro, follow me, take Ninomaru in one breath, then kill Honmaru directly, and take down Takeda Katsuyori's first level."

Oh!

　　 The Echigo army violently swiped the tip of the gun, and loudly agreed.

　　 Immediately, the Echigo army swarmed towards Iwagaki Castle Ninomaru like a billowing torrent.
