Noda Castle, which was expanded on the original site, consists of two parts, the new town and the old town.

The old castle is the ruins of the Takeda Army that was completely destroyed by the Takeda Army during the Battle of Noda Castle, and is located in the center of Noda Castle.

The new city is based on the dilapidated original site, expanded outward by 200 meters, and then the old driver designed it according to the plan explained by Liu 18.

In the end, the Takeda family mobilized the surrounding people, spent a lot of manpower and material resources, and used advanced firing technology to burn black mud bricks and pile up the tall outer walls.

………………

In the middle of Noda Castle, on the site of the burned ruins, chickens and dogs jumped all night, and the heavy noise frightened people out of breath.

Meng Tianfang led a guard of forty people, and quickly shuttled between the ruins, searching......

In addition, in some specific areas of the new city, there are also Takeda Ashigaru troops who are responsible for guarding the castle, and they are also looking around!

The people living in the outer Shinjo area were actually auxiliaries recruited from the Takeda Kai area and the villages around Noda Castle.

Auxiliaries generally do not participate in direct combat, so there are both men and women, and the proportion of women is not small, even more than the proportion of men in the total number of auxiliaries.

These were still essentially the people's auxiliaries, and their duties were to specialize in crafting weapons and armor, collecting grain and grass, and making military rations and meals, and the Takeda family paid them or food.

However, there are exceptions to special circumstances!

If the garrison of Noda Castle were attacked by an irresistible force, both the civilians and the auxiliaries would drive to the castle walls and participate in the battle like the regular army!

The responsibility of defending the land and protecting the family, the relationship between the amount of resources obtained, and even the life and death of the ethnic group, the war caused by the territorial resources does not discriminate between men and women!

In Noda Castle, the number of auxiliary soldiers belonging to the Takeda family is as high as more than 6,000 people, which is a huge number!

It can be reminiscent of the weapons and ammunition consumed by tens of thousands of troops in a battle, which is actually not much......

And these auxiliaries are only responsible for the casting process of weapons, ammunition, and armor, and Liu Eighteen has not counted the grain and grass on their heads!

Because Liu Eighteen, one of the strategies formulated for Maori Shengyong is - self-sufficiency, to fight to feed the war!

……………………

On this day, it was the day when the head of the Takeda family of Noda Castle held a political evaluation meeting, and the generals went out under the command of the commander-in-chief, Mori Katsunaga.

Therefore, the auxiliaries who are temporarily living in the new town of Noda Castle have been granted permission to rest for a day!

During the day, it was okay, and all kinds of echoing roars and shouting slogans could not disturb the auxiliary soldiers who were tired of being dogs.

And by the time the army pulled out the flag, it was almost dark!

But in the dark of night, the auxiliaries cowered in the brick houses, staring at frightened eyes and trembling all over......

They were all terrified, they had never seen such a terrifying sight......

The entire Noda Castle is shrouded in thick clouds!

As long as all the auxiliaries gasped, they didn't dare to stay at the door for a moment!

The entire Noda Castle is filled with an invisible evil aura!

The root of the evil qi was led by a fierce general under the eighteenth subordinate of Takeda, the lord of Takeda, with forty or fifty personal guards.

Those guards in blood-red armor, like tireless evil spirits, searched through the ruins of the old town of Noda Castle all night, making a tremendous noise......

The pro-guards formed by the Legion of the Dead are all big men with cold and hideous expressions, bright red facial armor, and they can't stop the indifference that overflows from them, and who dares to stop the auxiliaries?

……………………

Noda Castle New Town, there is a huge three-story arrow tower building on the outer city wall.

The tower, similar to the tower on the ancient Chinese city wall, is made of huge logs as beams, and the surface is simple and rough is not the key, the key is that this tower is absolutely strong and durable!

Standing on the tower, you can see the entire Noda Castle and the surrounding scenery outside the castle, and the geographical features within a radius of about 10 miles.

The tower corresponds to the only gate of Noda Castle, and outside the gate, there is an unprecedentedly additional urn castle that is nearly a third shorter than the main wall.

The construction method of the urn city draws on the protruding style of the octagonal cornice, and every two protruding cornices can clearly observe the between the two cornices of the urn city, forming a pinching trend.

Whether it is the urn city or the main city, the thickness is about seven meters, the urn city is twenty meters high, and the wall of the main city is thirty meters high, and four to five cavalrymen can gallop side by side on it.

Ride a horse from one end of the wall, patrol in a state of imminent battle, run around the wall in a circle, no more than three minutes!

Noda Castle New Town doesn't matter if it is dilapidated, but its walls and height are the best of our time.

Thirty meters high and seven meters thick, the range is not large enough to run the fast passage of war horses, which undoubtedly greatly improves the defense capability of Konoda Castle.

………………

At the highest part of the city wall, there are also narrow iron cannon shooting holes, and a considerable number of long-arm iron hooks, which are used to repel ladders, flying claws and other climbing equipment.

Between the shooting holes, every five or six meters, there is also a light point that is recessed into the thick wall to prevent wind and rain.

As long as an open fire is lit in the middle of the night, the entire city wall is brightly lit, and it is difficult for a samurai with excellent ninja detection skills to climb to the top of the castle quietly.

And this style is a defensive architectural symbol that many cities in ancient China have.

The style of the urn castle in front of you was borrowed from the Osaka Castle by Sanada Yukimura, a famous general in the current history, and is called "Sanada Maru". ”

Sanada Yukimura, the Urn Castle built in this way, repelled the First Battle of Osaka Castle launched by Tokugawa Ieyasu in one fell swoop.

At this time, the tall walls of Noda Castle had already been lit up, illuminating the fast passage on the upper level of the wall as if it were daylight!

Patrolling back and forth on the city walls were the three hundred specially left to defend the castle.

These three hundred people were organized into a city guard by Liu Eighteen and temporarily handed over to Soranta for control.

And Solanta is very free and easy, among the three hundred ashigaru, he directly found a ashigaru who is very clever in learning marksmanship, and rushed to be the leader of the ashigaru of the city guard!

The clever leader of Ashigaru predicted that the Takeda family would just go out in all directions tonight, and there would be no changes at night, so he boldly divided the three hundred ashigaru into fifteen squads!

A team of twenty people, each with a low-level general, led by two ashigaru small flags.

Fifteen squads patrol one team per hour, and twelve of them patrol Noda Castle around the clock.

The extra three teams of Ashigaru become mobile troops defending the city, and when there is no fighting, the corresponding patrol team rotates to rest.

The three hundred defenders of the castle were stationed under the inner walls of the castle, with a small group camping by the gate of Noda Castle and a group of camps on each side of the castle wall.

Under the last section of the castle wall, which echoes the gate of Noda Castle, a team of Ashigaru squads is also stationed for the day's rotation.

Noda Castle was built into an extremely strong city defense structure by the old driver of Liu Shibai and his party, Li Ergou, Soranta and others.

At least, at that time, the 30-meter-high city wall must have been a behemoth, so it was not enough to say that it was strong, it should be said to be breathtaking!

…………………………

In the middle of the three-story tower of Noda Castle, in the morning mist, three people can be faintly seen, one sitting and two standing......

At this moment, the black city, the humans, the wasteland, and the morning fog seemed to be monsters that had grown out of the silence, and there was an eerie smell......

It's chilling!

……………………………………

There will be more updates in the future!

Around 11 p.m. – a great twist and a sneak peek!
