Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 129: Night attack! Night attack!

The sixth day of the Battle of Iwasaki Castle.

   Saito Asanobu and Takemata Kiyotuna changed their tactics that they had delayed yesterday and led the Echigo Army to launch Iwagaki Castle. It was the most violent attack in the past six days.

   The Takeda Army’s garrison fired up all the arrows and ammunition in the last stock. The iron cannon was light enough, the arched feet were light, and the eyes were red.

  Because of no need to take care of it, Takeda’s iron cannon was light enough to burn the iron cannon, and the sound of the two armies’ iron cannons was deafening.

   And the Echigo Army attacked Ninomaru three times in just one morning.

   This time, even regardless of the Takeda army, even Li Xiao himself almost felt that Ninomaru was about to be unable to hold it, and almost gave the order to abandon the city.

   Fortunately, at this time, Takeda Katsuyori personally led his nearby crowd to help.

   Takeda Katsuyoshi, Li Xiao, Sanada Masayuki and other generals had to go to the front line for hand-to-hand combat.

   Both sides are struggling, fighting each other to the death and not retreating. The two armies disliked the armor in the way, so they went shirtless to fight each other at the gate of the city to fight to the death.

   Feeling that the corpse is in the way, he kicks the corpse aside, or steps on the corpse.

   Just one city gate, the corpses of the two armies were piled several meters high. Many generals of the Takeda Army were injured. Takeda Katsurai's nearby people also killed several people, so that the Echihou Army was forced to block the gate of the city.

   The Echigo Army also paid a heavy price.

   The Echihou army outside the city blasted the iron cannons until the bowstring was broken. The generals of the Echigo Army looked at the gate hole of Ninomaru in astonishment. It was like a mouth of a terrifying behemoth, devouring countless lives.

  Whether it is an Ashwagandha or an Echigo samurai with great martial arts, after rushing in, none of them came out alive. What a terrible existence is there? They were obviously only one step away from taking the Ninomaru of the Takeda Army, but they were never able to take this step.

   The Echigo Army finally couldn't hold on, and at sunset, the entire line collapsed.

   Both sides fought out of strength, exhausting the last bit of strength.

   Iwagaki Castle outside the Echigo Army Headquarters.

   "It seems that Saito, Takemata-sama, they still can't capture Iwagaki Castle today." Usami fixedly looked at Iwagakiyama in the distance.

Yataro Kojima, this Uesugi Kenshin's flag-based warrior, smiled to himself: "It would be better if Saito and the others have not captured Iwasaki Castle, otherwise I will not be able to show my skills tomorrow and personally cut off Takeda Katsuyori's head. ."

Usami shook the feather fan lightly and said: "The lord can not play the best, otherwise this does not mean that this Takeda Katsurai, Li Xiao, my Echigo army, except for the lord, no one can help them. In vain. Increase the morale of the Takeda army."

   Kojima Yataro laughed and said with a smile: "Suruga-sama, I'm overwhelmed. Anyway, as soon as tomorrow is over, the Takeda troops all over the city have become dead bodies. Who will criticize us by then."

   These remarks made the original dull atmosphere in the tent suddenly eased a lot, and the generals in the tent nodded one after another.

Usami Dingman shook his head and said: "It is really puzzling. It stands to reason that the Takeda army should have been in the predicament of running out of water, but why they can resist so tenaciously. Is our estimation wrong, or Takeda Katsuyoshi? Li Xiao really has three heads and six arms?"

"Regardless of whether the Takeda army has run out of water, we have been wasting too much time under Iwagaki Castle." It was Naoe Mizuna who spoke. After a pause, he said again: "Takeda army is fighting against beasts and can persist. At this point, it’s considered pretty good. Now that the Lord Lord Qiben's army will go out in person tomorrow, Iwasaki City is destined to fall."

   Tomorrow, the Echigo Army will be led by Kenshin Uesugi himself to launch a general attack on Iwagaki Castle.

   This also means the end of the Battle of Iwagaki Castle.

   All the generals in this formation looked at Iwagaki Castle on the mountain.

   Iwagaki Castle will fall tomorrow!

   Iwagaki Ninomaru.

   "Order the soldiers to seize the time to rest. Before dawn, our army will attack Tengu Maru at night!"

"what?"

   Li Xiao revealed this shocking news to the generals of Takeda's army, and the generals were in an uproar.

Machang Changfang immediately stood up and asked Li Xiaoyan bluntly: "There are hundreds of Echigo troops stationed in Tengu Maru. The defense is strong, and the Echigo troops under the mountain may come to help at any time. Our troops only rely on night attacks, and there is nothing in them. Chance."

   "No, I agree with Master Li Xiao's opinion," Bao Kezheng stood up and said, "If this continues, our army will not die of thirst, but will also die in battle. It's better to try the opportunity."

"There is not necessarily no chance," Takeda Katsuyori said as he approached the pen in the crowd, and Masatada Masatada of the mark department said. There is also a well in the middle. If we fight for water, our army will definitely die."

   As soon as the water was mentioned, the people in the audience couldn't help licking their chapped lips. Their throats were going to be dry right now. When they heard the word water, they all conditioned their reflexes and swallowed dryly in their throats.

   When I thought that if the night attack on Tenguwan was successful, I could fetch water to drink, but the generals who originally wanted to oppose it were silent.

   Then Li Xiaozheng said to the generals: "I am here to gather all the people, not to discuss, but to convey the order of His Royal Highness Shenglai to attack Tengu Maru tonight. Success or failure depends on this."

   "Oh!" the generals replied suddenly.

   It was the dark moon that night, and Shino was pitch black, but Tengumaru from Ninomaru was brightly lit.

   The Echigo Army is heavily guarded. In Tengumaru, the Echigo Army is constantly patrolling with torches. Obviously, they are also guarding against possible night attacks by the Takeda Army.

   And the Takeda army, who is the side of the night attack, has already overwhelmed all the possessions, desperately making a last-ditch fight.

   After taking a break in the middle of the night, the Takeda army was up and down. Everyone knew that this battle was of great importance. Taking Tengumaru would not only turn the tide of the battle, but also obtain water.

   This has caused the Takeda army to go up and down without water for a whole day, and now their chests and belly can almost ignite, their eyes staring at Tengumaru are also different, one by one, their eyes are red.

  As the first team to attack Tengumaru, they are the Samurai of the Takeda family. They are led by Takeda Katsuyoshi. Oguma Asahide, Sanada Masayuki, Baba Masabo, and Boko brothers personally assault.

   The second team has light guns. In these days of fierce battle, the original more than 600 guns in the city have light guns, and only less than 300 can fight, and the troops are scarce.

   Therefore, the iron cannon team, which has run out of ammunition and arrows, must also be pressed by the archery team. As the third team of the Takeda army, each person is holding a long spear and a rib. UU reading www. Uukanshu.com came out as a reserve army.

   The last team is the original handyman in the city. Non-combatants such as horsemen, pharmacists, prayer monks, taiko drummers, and conch hands, including some wounded soldiers who are not seriously injured, must also go into battle. Each of them issued a weapon.

   In short, this time the Takeda army attacked Tengumaru, either by putting the banner of Takeda Hiroshima on the top of the city, or the whole army was wiped out under Tengumaru.

   Now in Ninomaru, no one from the hundreds of Takeda troops uttered a word, and each waited with bated breath.

   Even Takeda Katsuyori stared at the head of Tengumaru's castle vigilantly, waiting for the moment of the attack. At this time, a careful person would find that Takeda Katsuyori's top general, Li Xiao, was not in the formation.

   And at this moment, Li Xiao took Shima Katsumou, Shioka Kazuha, and 30 elite samurai Ashikaru, standing on the curved wheel on the other side of Ninomaru, looking down below.

   Below them, there is a stone wall that is more than 30 meters high. The stone wall is behind the Echigo Army Tengumaru, close to the gate.

   The first team of the Echigo Army is guarded here. They are obviously wary of the Takeda Army. They may climb down from the stone wall of Ninomaru to attack Tengumaru, so they are here to wait.

   As long as any soldier of the Takeda Army dared to climb down the mountain with a rope, he would immediately be shot with a bow and arrow into an arrow target.

   But Li Xiao, Shimatsu Meng, Shioka Kazuha and the others are going to sneak from here and attack Tengumaru at night.
