Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 127: Run out of ammunition

The smoke during the day has just cleared.

   Li Xiao presses the samurai sword in his hand, and carries Shima Katsumou, Shioka Kazuha and others to patrol the night.

   Although it is midsummer right now, the mountain is cold at night, and the only houses on the mountain provide the wounded to rest. Therefore, the soldiers of the Takeda Army are mostly a few people sleeping on the horse track.

   After the fierce battle of the past few days, after another day of heavy rain yesterday, the armor of the soldiers of the Takeda family was already full of mud, but they were worried that the Echigo Army would come at any time at night, so no one disarmed and rested.

   After days of fierce fighting, the Takeda army was exhausted, almost to the point where they could fall asleep while standing with a spear, and the more important thing was the reduction in drinking water. Everyone drank less than half of their usual level. Nevertheless, everyone only has two days to drink.

   Continue like this, what should I do in two days.

   But fortunately, Takeda Katsurai and Li Xiao have a high reputation in the army. In this first day, the Takeda army has not shown any military ambitions.

   When Li Xiao visited one place, he saw Changan Tibetan and several warriors who were on duty at night, holding a bamboo tube while drinking water and chatting.

   Li Xiao recognized that they were all samurai who came from the side of Takeda Katsuyai, such as Akiyama Chiku, Ohara Yoshitada and others.

   Seeing that it was Li Xiao, a few of them hurriedly saluted and said: "See Master Li Xiao."

   Li Xiao nodded, and first asked the Tibetan Changan: "Has all the drinking water been distributed today?"

   Dazang Changan nodded, and said: "People's drinking water is divided down, but the horse can't help it."

   Li Xiao nodded and said: "When there is really no water, you must kill the war horse and quench your thirst with horse blood."

  Da Zang Changan lowered his head when he heard that, the war horse and the samurai sword were another life of the samurai.

   Every samurai has at least one samurai sword, but the horse is different. The ability to ride a horse is the hallmark of a high-level samurai. At the moment it is about to reach the point of killing horses and drinking blood to quench their thirst, which shows how critical the situation is.

   "My lord," Dazang Changan hesitated for a while, then hesitated for a while and asked, "Master Li Xiao, we can make it through. Didn't we just defeat the Echigo Army only yesterday?"

Li Xiao turned his head and looked. The words of the Tibetan Changan represent the aspirations of Akiyama’s long-term relationship, Ohara Jizhong’s aspirations, and saw that these people are all worried, and they are also considered samurai with a high level of mentality. Needless to say, they are lighter underneath.

Yes, according to a strong city like Iwaki Castle, and a weapon like an iron cannon, Li Xiao is confident that he can win the first and second battles, but even if he continues to win, it will not be a decisive factor for the entire battle. The overall strength of the battle. The disadvantage is not how many victories can be reversed.

   Li Xiao is not optimistic about it. Iwagaki Castle will not be able to support it for a few more days under the sharp offensive of the Echigo Army. Coupled with the lack of water, this is even more terrible.

   Li Xiao raised his brows, looked at the Tibetan Changan and asked, "Are you worried that we can't support it?"

   "No," Dazang Changan shook his head quickly, and said as if to encourage himself: "Master Li Xiao, you have repeatedly led us to create miracles, this time it must be possible."

   At this time, the foot light people resting on the side also gathered around.

   They asked anxiously, "Master Li Xiao, what are your strategies to help us out of this predicament?"

   "Yes, Master Li Xiao, just say a few words!"

Li Xiao turned his head to look, and saw that although everyone had worry on their faces, there was a kind of expectation in their eyes, as if he was their last expectation and could lead them to reverse the situation with his own power. Same.

   Li Xiao knows that they trust themselves in the bottom of their hearts, and look forward to what they can do to help them out of this difficulty, just like Shirane Mountain is fighting together.

   Facing the hopeful gazes of everyone, Li Xiao smiled confidently and said: "Don't look at me too high, I am also an ordinary person, with a head between two shoulders, nothing special."

   When Li Xiao said so, everyone laughed.

   The more he said this, the more people felt that he had no conspiracy.

  Only Li Xiao knew about his family. He looked at the blazing lights below Iwasaki Mountain, and from the end of the Echihou Army barracks, there was a look of worry in his eyes.

   On the fourth day of the Iwagaki Castle Battle, Naoe Mizuna continued to fight with the Takeda family. The two sides still had a fierce battle for one day and ended in a tie.

   The last remaining water source of the Takeda Army finally dries up, and the Tibetan Changan has no idea how to support tomorrow.

   But tomorrow will come after all.

   Iwagaki Castle Cage City Battle on the fifth day.

   The Echigo Army siege master will be changed again, Naoe Mizuna, Yamamotoji's long line is replaced by Yamashita.

  The countless black armored Echigo generals under the mountain stepped forward to take over the Tengumaru position.

   Saito Chaoxin's face was stern, and he rode his horse with his helmet through his armor. On the horse path beside him was the Echigo generals surging like a torrent, dull footsteps on the ground, and the sound of orderly collision of armor.

Saito Asanobu rode a horse to the samurai house in Tengumaru, and toward Naoe Mizuna standing under the house, Yamamotoji nodded in greeting, saying: "The attack is imminent, so I won't dismount to salute the two adults. "

   Naoe Mizuna raised his head, looked at Saito Asanobu, and said, "Saito-sama, have you thought about how to attack Takeda Gun Ninomaru?"

   Saito Asashina was noncommittal and asked, "Do you think Naoe-sama thought I would lose a second time under Li Xiao?"

   Naoe Mizuna laughed and said, "Saito-sama, I have been worrying too much, so I wish you a long martial luck."

   After finishing speaking, a small surname led the horse, Naoe Mizuna turned on the horse, and said goodbye to Saito Asanobu, and then stationed at Naoe Mizuna in Tengumaru, and the long line of Yamamoto Temple slowly retreated down the mountain.

   Saito Asanobu held a riding whip and stared at Iwagaki Castle with his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "This time I will have the shame of fighting at Shirane Mountain."

   The Echigo Army succeeded Naoe Mitsuna to attack Ninomaru's general. It was Li Xiao's old opponent, Akita Castle Lord, Saito Asanobu, known as Echigo Zhongkui, and Takemata Castle Lord, Takemata Kiyotatsu.

In front of Iwasaki Castle Ninomaru~www.wuxiamtl.com~ The Echigo Army’s platoons of guns were all fired, and the rounds of shooting hit the wooden curved wheels on Iwasaki Castle Ninomaru, and sawdust flew around. . From time to time, the Takeda Army's iron cannon who was hiding behind was slightly injured by the ricochet.

   The huge roar was suddenly deafening.

   Li Xiao's lips were chapped, standing on the Ninomaru's wheel and watching the battle.

   The Echigo Army still mobilized two hundred iron cannons to shoot at the front gate of Ninomaru.

   Due to the lack of ammunition, the Takeda Army’s iron guns were not able to fire at full force, so the firepower has been suppressed by the Echigo Army.

  The two hundred iron cannons fired by the Echigo Army under her eyes made Li Xiao no longer able to stand on the arrow scull.

   The offensive of the Echihou Army was anxious for a while.

   Saito Asanobu's tactics are Xiao Gui Cao Sui, who still adopts the same tactics as Naoe Mizuna, iron cannon suppression, light troops assault, and the main force standby and move.

   Saito Asanobu is worthy of being a famous Echigo general. Although his offensive is not sharp enough, he is very mature and shows no flaws.

   He wanted to drag the battle into a war of attrition, in order to consume the morale of the Takeda army, its strength and ammunition.

   And the Takeda army has nothing to do with his tactics.

   At noon, Saito Asanobu finally seized the opportunity and attacked Ninomaru in one breath.

   The Takeda Army counterattacked the Saito Army who broke into the Ninomaru. The two armies fought against each other, and the Ninomaru once again ran into a river of blood.
