Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 302 Ambush Appears

On the arrow scull, Endo Keilong and Sister Koji Raizuna watched the 700 troops of Tori Nagaido, crushed by the riding team of the Takeda army, and chopped into pieces.

The Nagai Army only had to run away.

In a panic, Endo Keilong took a step back and said: "How is this possible? Father-in-law is a famous general in Mino, why can't even the Takeda army be defeated?"

Sister Xiaolu Lai Gang's face was also uncompromising, and he hammered the wooden fence heavily with his hands and said, "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible."

Just as the two were speaking, a samurai rushed to them and said, "Master Lord, Kamiokabi of the Takeda Army, ready to attack the Otemon Gate."

"what?"

Endo Keilong was slightly startled, and said: "The main force of the Takeda army is violently attacking the city to the west. What is the intention of dividing the forces right now?"

Sister Koji Lai Tsuna said: "Don't panic, the big hand gate is the top priority of the city's defense, and the Takeda army is definitely not that easy to break through. Lord of the city, there are one thousand and two hundred defenders in the city, even if it is a joint battle in the field. With the power of a battle, are you still afraid that the Takeda Army will not be able to break through here today."

Endo Keilong nodded and said, "In that case, I'll go take a look."

On the west side of Gujo Hachiman Castle, Kimoto, the main force of the Takeda Army, crossed the gully and stormed the city.

Shima Katsumi's Kamioka has moved to the front of Otemon.

The Otemon Gate of Gujo Hachiman Castle is the Goryeo Gate. Above the gate is a double-layer curved wheel. The wheels are all made of stone. The exterior is rubbed with a new layer of white dust, while a row of narrow spaces is exposed in the center, which can be vaguely seen. The moving figure in the small room.

Except for the gate, the Goryeo Gate is all stone structure. It is difficult to open the gate directly with a mortar.

In front of Dashoumen, an imperial bridge straddles the trench and stands in front of the door.

Right now, the Takeda Army Foot Hedgehog gathered behind Mihashi, and the two six-pounder guns were each dragged by three horses to the front of the formation.

Horses were very scarce in Japan at that time. Even the Gongqing Hirajitsu in Kyoto used ox carts instead of horse carts, so it was a luxury to use horses to drag the big barrels.

As for the two newly-cast new direct-fire guns, Li Xiao also gave a high-level treatment. One gunner, three gunners, five porters, and horsemen and other handymen, one gun was directly assigned to 18 people. Specially responsible.

At present, these two direct-fire cannons are different from mortars stacked on sandbags. The direct-fire cannons are dragged by wooden wheels, and the crank can be turned to adjust the height of the muzzle up and down. In this way, the range can be adjusted immediately, and the enemy can be fired.

Kamioka's iron cannons were light enough, densely distributed on both sides of the bridge, aimed at the city gate, to guard against the enemy forces smashing out of the city gate.

The Takeda army's long guns were light enough, and they were also deployed in a square formation to securely guard the two direct-fire guns to the left and right.

At this time, the gunner of the direct-fire gun was at the front and had completed the range finding. Then the gunner lowered the muzzle under the gunner’s constant calls, almost parallel to the ground.

"fire"

With two dull cannon sounds, one of the direct-fired projectiles shot too high and passed the gate, while the other shot directly on the edge of the gate, punching a hole in a piece of stone wall.

"Fool"

Shima Masaru yelled, but then shook his head. The gunners and gunners who fired the guns sighed. After all, they had only been recruited for less than three months and were not trained enough, so the accuracy of shooting inevitably deviated greatly. .

However, even though the shelling missed a hit, it still caused an uneasy commotion behind the Otemon Gate of Gujo Hachiman Castle.

The enemy obviously understood that Takeda's intention to open the city gate with direct fire.

The wooden gate is not as strong as the stone wall, and can collapse with a shot.

If the Takeda army broke through the gate, it would be able to drive straight in.

While the gunners of the Takeda Army were clearing their chambers, the handlers brought the projectiles, and reloaded the ammunition, a rapid snail horn sounded behind the city gate.

Dao Shengmeng heard this Fasnail's brow furrowed, and then only saw the enemy's big hand gate, but the city gate suddenly opened.

Immediately, a large group of endo army samurai armed with a long spear and a sword, Zuqing, rushed out of the city gate, and slew towards the current Takeda army.

Their purpose is obviously to destroy the artillery positions of the Takeda Army, so that the opponent does not need to bombard the city gate with a big tube.

After seeing this scene, Shima Sheng was slightly surprised, and then sneered disdainfully, saying: "I'm looking for a dead end."

Immediately after Shima Katsuya waited for the enemy to rush to the half of Yuqiao, he pressed his hand.

Bang bang

The iron cannons on both wings of the Takeda Army roared into one piece.

The iron cannons scattered on both sides were light enough, and the Endo Army slammed the trigger without hesitation.

Under the crossfire of the Takeda army, blood splashed on the bridge head for a while.

One by one, the Asukas of the Endo Army planted one by one from the bridge into the water on both sides of the bridge.

The broken bridge was also full of corpses.

However, just before the Takeda Army’s iron cannons fired, the Endo Army came up with more than a dozen iron cannons.

Under fire from the enemy, a gunner who was re-ranging was killed, and the gunner was killed and wounded.

However, at this time, a Takeda Army direct-fire gun was loaded, lowered the muzzle again, and bombarded the oncoming Endo Army.

Because the muzzle pressure was too low, the shells fired by this direct-fire gun directly penetrated into the densely packed Endo army in a pile of people arranged vertically.

First hit the cannonball Endo Junzui was directly smashed to pieces, and then the glide past the cannonball, after involving several people, hit the ground and bounced back, and immediately pierced a warrior wearing a thick armor in front of him, and continued to attack. Forward shot.

Where the cannonball passed, it was like a farmer plowing a field in the field. The opponent's position was lightened and the cannonball penetrated a whole column at once, and finally the cannonball slammed on the city wall unwillingly.

At this moment, as an adversary soldier of Takeda, he was horrified by the scene before him, and even the iron gun that was being reloaded lightly stopped.

Those who were directly killed by the shells were lucky, while the rest of the wounded soldiers with missing arms and legs erupted in unison with the most terrible screams. At this time, the scene looked like hell.

This can only be blamed on the stupidest formation of the Endo Army. The soldiers passed through the narrow caves and the imperial bridge, which was no more than a few wide. Everyone could only line up in a tight rectangular line, which just gave the direct guns. A good opportunity for shells to kill.

The morale of the Endo Army collapsed under the direct-fire cannon, and immediately threw down its weapons and turned and fled to the city gate.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shima Katsumou drew the sword at his waist and shouted: "Kill into the city."

"Oh"

Zuqing of the Takeda Army suddenly agreed, holding a spear to cover the city.

The Endo Army discovered this scene and regretted it. The samurai guarding the gate tried to forcibly close the gate, but was forcibly broken by the defeated army.

The Takeda army headed into the city.

On the main battlefield of the Takeda Army, Li Xiao heard that at the Otemon Gate of Gujo Hachiman Castle, all of a sudden there were shouts of murder.

At this time, a samurai rushed to report, saying: "Master, Lord Shima Katsumi has led an army into Marunouchi, outside of Hachiman Castle."

The ambassador’s report was immediately Bendo Masanobu, Fujido Takatora and others were overjoyed. Li Xiao immediately ordered Qimotobei, who was attacking the west side of the city, to strengthen the offensive and attract the attention of the enemy to support the island's frontal attack.

As the war progressed, more and more Takeda troops attacked the Gujo Castle Outer Maru.

Finally, the sun and moon double-patterned flag was erected high in the city.

In less than half a day, the Sotomaru of Yawata Castle was finally broken by the Takeda Army, and the Endo Army damaged more than 380 people.

However, despite the fact that the Siege Battle occupies most of the advantages, the Takeda Army still paid the price of more than 50 people killed in battle and more than 70 injured in one morning.

As for the Nagaido Tori Army, after they were defeated by Kinoshita Koichiro head-on, they were chased down by Tsuchiya Masahiro’s horse riding team. A total of more than 200 were killed and more than 300 were captured. Nagaido and the remnant escaped. To the East Palace, but his eldest son Michikatsu Nagai was captured by the Takeda army.

Correspondingly, Koichiro Kinoshita suffered no more than five or six casualties, while the riding team had no casualties.

Just as Li Xiao was about to give an order, his troops continued to attack Ninomaru in Hachiman Castle, Yokotani Yukikiyo reported, saying: "In the valley one and a half miles away from Hachiman Castle, there is a fight. Is the military under the banner of Ando?".

Li Xiao was surprised when he heard the words, and then angrily said: "The ninjas weren't investigating before, are there no other forces within a ten-mile radius of the county? Why would the enemy be allowed to sneak into two miles without noticing it."

"So unaware of it, if the enemy took a night raid, our army would suffer a big loss."

Seeing Li Xiao's anger, Yukki Yokotani knelt on the ground with a puff and said, "Return to the lord, the Mino intelligence network has just been established, so this is the omission. All this is the negligence of the minister. Please the lord to confess the crime. ."

At this time, Bendo was holding a map in his hand and walked over to Li Xiaoyan: "Master, I can't blame Master Henggu. This valley is very concealed and suitable for Tibetan soldiers. According to my guess, the enemy army must have been there as early as possible. The ninja had already arranged this plan at the beginning of the investigation three days ago, and was lurking here."

"Three days ago?"

Li Xiao's eyes flashed, he read the map again, took a breath, and said, "What a poisonous strategy, this person knows the location of this place and the formation of our army. If our army cannot capture this place now In the city, where you set up camp tonight, you must not be able to guard against a sneak attack here. This person is really too cunning."

Honda believes that: "The opponent sees that Hachiman Castle is being attacked by our army at risk, so they will send troops to attack our flank. Otherwise, they will wait until the night ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and then suddenly attack our army. At that time. It's hard to guard against. This person's use of ambush is really unpredictable. How could there be such a person in the Ando army?"

Li Xiao's body shook and suddenly remembered that during the battle between Oda and Saito in Ghana a few years ago, it was said that someone in the Saito army had defeated the Oda army with Han Xin's ten-sided ambush plan to ambush the King of Chu.

Is it true that some people will ambush this ten-sided plan?

Li Xiao was awakened suddenly and said loudly: "The third reserve team will give me the order to retreat and retreat from Waimaru, ready to return to face the Ando army."

Ben Duo believed and said: "Don't be so quiet, we still have a back hand to capture this city..."

Li Xiao stretched out his hand to stop, indicating that the book is more upright without saying more.

The soldiers were unclear. So, seeing the outer pill that was so easy to lay down, he suddenly gave up to Li Xiao, but since it was a military order issued by Li Xiao, he did not hesitate to implement it.
