Chapter 22: The Army Appears
In the cottage, Su Shijie has planned to completely wipe out the Baihe Group this time. The pen and fun pavilion used to keep it www.biquge.info because even though they disliked the Ten Thousand Ghost Party, it didn't bring any harm to the Ten Thousand Ghost Party.
But now they have told Su Shijie with facts, even if it can't bring harm. But their attitude has the ability to encourage wandering samurai and the like.
Oto Shukuba Town is the rear of the expansion of the Mangi Party, and it is a place that provides food and grass for itself. If this goes wrong, then the expansion will have to stop.
Mission 2 complete! Assign the latest mission: the existence of the White River Group is already in the way, so destroy it!
Hahaha! Even my mission is this, and it seems that there is no hope for the Shirakawa group at all. Su Shijie was ready to transfer out a third of the people and personally lead them.
This is the first time that the Ten Thousand Ghost Party has attacked a village or town, and it stands to reason that there will be no problems. During the shogunate period, there were no fortifications or anything like that.
As long as you dare to rush and not be afraid of death, you may seize this place. Su Shijie transferred out two hundred people, and there were not a hundred people in the entire Baihe group.
Baihe Huci would never have imagined that Su Shijie had been expanding recently, and the number of the Ten Thousand Ghost Party was very large. They don't have any advantages!
Su Shijie told the people who were going to go to war to eat well, and then put their weapons and equipment in order. Although there is no armor, there is still some armor made of animal skins.
"This time, take out the Shirakawa group, and everyone can grab some loot in Oto Shukuba Town. Except for the other farmers of the Baihe Group, don't kill us, and we need them to feed us with our food in the future! Hahaha! ”
"It's big brother, let's definitely leave this batch of 'serfs'" "It's big brother! "Haha
There was a wolf howl, and it seemed that the morale was good. There's nothing wrong with this fight, Ahhh You're mine! I'm not going to let anyone take you away.
Fujidaira Juma! I'm going to kill you this time. Ah, the city is what I prepared for myself, and the samurai will become an important tool for me. When the time comes, I will let Ah Shi kill you with my own hands and give you the deepest despair, hahaha......
Knowing that Su Shijie planned to lead his subordinates to fight the Baihe group, Xianzhen and Yu Li also prepared. intends to follow Su Shijie and not leave him.
Hyun-jeong finds sulfur saltpeter by coincidence and thinks about it later. After all, they are fighting and there is a possibility of encountering danger, and the two of them have no combat ability. The means of self-preservation are needed.
So he teamed up with Yuli to make a bomb, but after all, the two had never been in contact, so the power of this thing was very small. Maybe it's smaller than a border grenade.
Su Shijie thought about it for a while after knowing it, and felt that it would be okay to bring them. However, safety was indeed a problem, and the bomb told them to be careful not to blow themselves up, and Su Shijie arranged a team of fifteen people to protect them.
Now everyone is relieved. However, there is no relevant information about gunpowder in the minds of all ghosts. Maybe now there are no gunpowder weapons? Don't take it out. If these shogunates had learned gunpowder, wouldn't it have been a great development!
Su Shijie had a wrong understanding of the shogunate period because of the memory of ten thousand ghosts. He thought that the current shogunate, like the early Warring States period in Japan, relied on samurai to fight. There were no large-scale regimental battles, phalanxes formed by the massive use of pikes, no muskets.
This is because Manki is just a low-level samurai, and his level is too low to participate in regular battles. It's just a kendo lesson for some rich second-generation samurai in the shogunate. So in fact, regular warfare did not exist in this period at all, and there were no pure samurai battles at all. Most of them were shot in a line by the iron gunners of the Ashigaru array.
Su Shijie didn't know that these would suffer a big loss after a while, and the Ten Thousand Ghost Party would also be destroyed.
At noon, under the leadership of Su Shijie, the Ten Thousand Ghost Party came to Oto Shukuba Town. The team was full of people, and the members of the Baihe Group who were monitoring at the entrance of the village were directly frightened and rushed back to the martial arts hall.
"This is our enemy, cowardly and incompetent, but who wants to resist! This time, we will completely eradicate them and raise the majesty of the Ten Thousand Ghost Party. After destroying them, they will have lunch here. ”
Su Shijie walked in front of him on a horse, and he was not worried about the combat power of the Baihe Group at all. There are only a few dozen people, and they can all be killed in a while! Besides, many of the people who came this time were masters, Matsushita Kimoto, Miyamoto Kosuke, Yamashita Keiki and Fujita Tadashi.
This is an absolute advantage, and there is no chance of it.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Not far from Oto Shukuba Town, an army of the castle lord is heading here. 30 iron gunners, 200 ashigaru pikemen, 100 samurai, and 20 cavalry.
Behind them was a large supply cart that looked like trophies, and there were several heads in the cart. If Su Shijie is here, he will definitely know Ito Ichiro, as well as two other family elders, Koji Sato and Naoto Takenaka.
The army had just launched an assault on the fortress of the Ghost Party of Su Shijie, and after a surprise attack, the leaders were killed, and the others surrendered. Except for a part of the people that were given to the army to transport the spoils of war. The others were slaughtered, and they didn't need prisoners, just booty.
"The head of the family, this time the encirclement and suppression of the Ten Thousand Ghost Party is really profitable. I didn't expect them to have so much possessions! ”
It was the leader's personal entourage who spoke, maybe it was still his surname. Although the seat is very low, I have a good relationship with the team leader, and I have nothing to talk about together.
I have a good understanding of the inside story of the shogunate's policies.
"The original Ten Thousand Ghosts are very honest and don't cause trouble. There were only complaints from the White River Group, but there were no casualties. In addition, he has a strong ability to teach a samurai who has worked as a shogun before. So everyone didn't want to come and deal with him. Recently, however, he has begun to expand blindly, annexing other forces everywhere. The source of black gold that has affected many people. So it's what he should do to him this time. This time our mission was mainly to kill him. Tell everyone that no one can break the rules! ”
The team leader told the inside story of this action against the Ten Thousand Ghosts Party, in fact, the previous Ten Thousand Ghosts would also give some officials financial information. However, after Su Shijie came, he didn't care about these things, so someone did something to him, and there was no insider to remind him.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
"Lord Toranoji! The army of ten thousand ghosts is coming here! "In Oto Shukuba Town, a Shirakawa-gumi samurai hurried to find the current Shirakawa team leader Shirakawa Toraji. Tell him the information of the Ten Thousand Ghost Party, and the people will be able to fight a decisive battle in a while.
Baihe Tiger heard it and roared. Take the knife hanging on the crotch in your hand, because the other hand is injured, it will definitely be too late to draw the knife when you see the people of the Ten Thousand Ghost Party, so you have to prepare a few breaths in advance.
The place where the Shirakawa group gathers is in front of the Budokan. A very spacious place that can accommodate a few hundred people. There is only one road outside the village, which can only accommodate a dozen people.
So this is the location of the Shirakawa Group, they can use the maximum number of people to fight against the dozen people of the Ten Thousand Ghost Party, so that they can only use oil filling tactics. The casualties will be significant. Maybe it won't kill many thousand ghosts and the party will collapse?
Huci is still very concerned about this duel, and has considered many aspects of preparation. But it's a pity that there are too many elite samurai of the Ten Thousand Ghost Party for them.
Most of the personnel of the White River Group are only at the apprentice level, and their combat effectiveness is very poor and they have no experience of killing.
It was a sunny day, and some breeze rattled the hanging tags back and forth. The streets were silent, and a solemn atmosphere rose into the air.
In the full attention of the Shirakawa group, the Ten Thousand Ghost Party has finally arrived!
Hundreds of people entered the village, occupying a black patch of all the space on the road. The smoke and dust that rolled up put a lot of pressure on the Shirakawa group.
Most of them wore red samurai uniforms and a lot of leather armor, almost a katana per person. Where people are not visible in the rear. There are a bunch of long knives in the high place, which are only used on the battlefield, and can assist the front-line personnel to attack the enemy in the back.
When Huci saw all this, his heart was a lot colder. The number is wrong, did the Ten Thousand Ghosts send all the people from the Ten Thousand Ghosts Party? There was no one left for his old nest!
It had been a long time since Hu Ji had learned about the Ten Thousand Ghost Party, and he only knew that he was being oppressed. But I never thought about why I was oppressed.
The Ten Thousand Ghost Party is now very strong! In particular, Su Shijie lifted the ban on the development of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Restriction Party, and then grew like a snowball.
Su Shijie was happy that he had developed so much without paying much attention to the development of his power, and this was the first time that Su Shijie had so many subordinates following him in his life.
Su Shijie rode on his horse and began to be complacent, without any worries about the destruction of the White River Formation. At most, it's just that your own people die a little more.
It's a pity that he didn't know that his cottage had been destroyed by the official army. Even they themselves are in danger now, and the officers and troops are not far from here!
Su Shijie sneered when he saw the people of the Baihe group on the opposite side, seeing so many people on his side. It's just a martial arts hall, and it's still thinking about rebelling against a group like a bandit. I don't know if I'm alive or dead!
Wave your hand to stop everyone and call each other to condemn each other before the big battle.
"I'm the White River Tiger of the White River Group, ten thousand ghosts! I'm going to break up with you today. Tiger Ci shouted first and made a provocation. If you don't speak again, the people at the Buddo Hall behind you are going to run away in fear!
"This shukuba town and you guys are of no use, Toraji! Although you are smart enough to resist in advance, unfortunately, you will also end up with your father! You and this shukuba town are going to be finished today! Hahaha! ”
At this time, as long as the other party is afraid, it is fine. Anyway, these people will not live, they will become chickens, chickens that kill chickens and make an example of monkeys. In the future, when ruling other villages, there is an example of this, and others will honestly support the Ten Thousand Ghost Party to grow.
When Tora heard Wan Ki's answer, he didn't have any thoughts in his heart. It's a fight to the death! Hold the hilt of the knife in your mouth and pull out the knife. Raised against the enemy, everyone behind him followed Shirakawa Toraji's movements and drew their swords one after another.
We will not surrender, we are determined to resist and defeat all ghosts!
