Chapter 153 Sweeping Fat Front

The four stormtroopers had been waiting for an itchy time, and rushed out as soon as they heard the order of the East 'Gate' Qing, and the Ashigaru formation outside the city had been 'chaotic' and had lost its organization, and the coalition army brought by Longzao Temple this time was originally suspected of being a rabble, and this team used for containment was the worst combat effectiveness in the entire coalition army! Although there were still hundreds of people at this time, neither their combat power nor equipment could be compared with the stormtroopers led by Li Rongjiu, Chen Ajin and others! What's more, at this moment, the morale of both sides is high and low, which can be said to be a cloud! Li Rongjiu rushed over with people, and when the other party looked at it, half of them abandoned their weapons and fled before they could take over.

If Dongmen Qing is a master of military command, he can order four stormtroopers to cut these hundreds of people at this moment, and with the deterrence of the follow-up musket team, it will not be long before this enemy army can be eaten clean. But Dongmen' Qingshi really had no experience in this area, so he just let Li Rongjiu rush out when he saw the opportunity, and let them rush to kill by themselves! Fortunately, at this time, the victory or defeat of the two sides was decided, Li Rongjiu and others rushed out, and there was no need to fight hard at all, and the Japanese ashigaru who was going to commit the crime was killed, but due to the lack of overall command to cut and outflank, at least half of those who were not killed on the spot escaped, and only a small half threw their weapons and surrendered!

The four stormtroopers rushed to the front, followed Xu Yuanliang's 500 men and horses out of the city 'gate', and then followed the musket team out of the line, because the front army chased farther and farther, and finally even Tang Xiuji escorted the eight 'gates' of wheeled artillery out of the city to follow!

Some of the fleeing defeated troops fled, but some still fled with the main forces of the coalition army - this is the instinct of the defeated army! Because of the threat of the stormtrooper's steel knives behind them, these defeated troops fled as fast as a rabbit being chased by a hound—surprisingly fast! Seeing that he had turned a hill, he rushed directly into the main formation of the coalition army that was attacking the main 'gate'!

Li Rongjiu and the others only pursued and ignored the large number of enemies, and directly rushed the defeated army into the formation of thousands of people! Shingoro looked at the family flag of Ryuzoji Temple and shouted to Shinrokuro, "Look! "Needless to say in the war, the two teams will converge and *** enter! Ryuzoji is besieging the city, so who would have expected that the rear formation would suddenly be attacked? For a while, the formation was also 'chaotic'! But after all, the four stormtroopers were not many in number, and the core troops of the Longzao Temple tried their best to block them, and only after leaving down more than a dozen corpses did they block the attack! The East 'Gate' Qing had already arrived at this time, and he was afraid that Li Rongjiu would suffer a loss, so he hurriedly asked Xu Yuanliang to answer! The four stormtroopers came fiercely, stirred around the enemy formation, and then retreated under Xu Yuanliang's response, and after a slight adjustment of the musket team and the artillery team, they were ready to attack again!

After such an entry and exit, the sky was already dark, and the coalition forces were ready to fight at night when they started the battle in the evening, and the torches were lit as soon as the sky was dark! But by this time, Lasso had already installed the cannon and adjusted the arc, and those torches became targets instead!

Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom

The sound of the cannon that Ryuzoji had never heard before almost deafened his ears! A shell landed right next to him, and although it didn't hit him, the panic of the surrounding troops scared him even more! There was a lot of murder in the city, and it was obvious that the people of the Matsuura family were also responding!

"Calm down! Sedation! He screamed!

However, except for the people of the Ryuzoji family, the wealthy family Ashigaru he invited was all 'chaotic' into a swarm of bees! Many wealthy families regret how they came to help their families and do this favor! At this time, they were attacked by the enemy on their backs, and they were confronted with a sharp weapon of war that they had never seen before, so thousands of people lost their faith! Capture the castle of Matsuura? That's no need to even think about it! It would be nice to be able to save 'life'!

"Let's go! Remove! "Home and decision.

The night is dangerous, and they originally planned to use the night to calculate the Matsuura family, but they didn't expect the West Gate to be defeated so miserably and so quickly! So much so that before Iekan could react, his back had already fallen into the hands of the enemy! In this case, the night has become their most terrible enemy! If they don't leave, I'm afraid that thousands of them will all die under this Songpu City!

Matsuura Jucheng is surrounded by water on both sides, and the main 'gate' faces south, and if you want to retreat, you have to retreat to the south! But now the south side has been blocked by the East 'Gate' Qing! The dying old man struggled to discern that the terrible thunder came from the high ground to the east of the south—which was where they came from—and directed his men to retreat in a south-west direction—the road was a little unfamiliar, but Iekane had made the right choice, there was really no one there, and although the road was full of thorns, he scratched his foot but saved his life! Although the East Gate Qing artillery bombarded and shots, and bows and arrows were fired in the city, after all, not only these thousands of people could be killed, and in the end, a few hundred people finally escaped. In fact, more than sixty percent of those who died in this 'chaos' battle were trampled to death by their own people! Xu Yuanliang chased the tail of the escapee again, chased for dozens of miles, and finally only a dozen people hid in Shuijiang City, which he had just recaptured.

As for the more than 2,000 people who remained outside Matsuura Castle and were still alive, they all surrendered, and the East Gate Kei collected the prisoners, confiscated their weapons, and escorted a dozen generals led by Nabeshima Kiyobo to enter the Matsuura Castle again, and no one in the city dared to look at him from the back of the cage Tian Anjing, and they all fell to the ground, looking at the East 'Gate' Kei as the new rising hegemon!

The actual situation of the First Battle of Matsuura was actually 'chaotic' and 'chaotic', and it was not 'fine' and colorful, but after being modified by the circulators, it became a powerful battle in Kyushu! Prior to this, although the musket, which the Japanese called the "iron cannon", had landed on Tanegashima and began to circulate, it had not attracted enough attention. As for the "big tube" in Japan, it is even rarer! However, after this battle, the iron cannon and the large barrel attracted the attention of the Japanese daimyo at the actual combat level, and even because of the rumors, there was a fear of this new type of sharp weapon - a fear beyond its real effect!

After the East Gate Qing returned to the city, he first accepted Matsuura Takanobu's congratulations, and then congratulated Matsuura Takanobu in turn, and said with a smile: "I heard from the captives that the Ryuzoji family has recently recaptured their Shuijiang City, do you want me to bring troops over to help you grab it!" ”

Matsuura Takanobu didn't dare to agree for a while, and Tian Yasujing asked tentatively: "Lord Dong'men', do you mean to help our lord seize Shuijiang City?" Don't want it yourself? ”

Dongmen' Qing said with a smile: "I just went to Japan to study, and by the way, I did business!" Sooner or later, I'll have to go. I still use the silver, can I take this city with me? ”

Cage Tian Anjing showed encouragement in Matsuura Takanobu in his eyes, but Matsuura Takanobu thought: "He is a Tang man after all, and with his strength, even if he occupies Shuijiang City, I am afraid that he will not be able to stand firm." "I wanted to excuse myself, but suddenly someone came to report, saying that the men and horses led by Xu Yuanliang had occupied Shuijiang City, and asked Wang Dangjia to go to the teacher!

It turned out that this time the dragon temple family was pouring out, there were few defenders in Shuijiang City, Xu Yuanliang chased straight to Shuijiang City to make noise, and the family listened to the city in a weak heart, and abandoned the city overnight, fled to the building and attached to Puchi, Xu Yuanliang was bloodless, occupied Shuijiang City, and sent people to report.

Dong 'Gate' Qing smiled: "Look, even if you don't want it now, people will send the 'door'!" Let's gather all the soldiers and horses, and go with me to have a look. ”

Yang Zhizhong had already heard the news at this time and rushed over, and persuaded: "We are in the guest land, it would be good if we could repel the enemy, and we will also occupy other people's cities, but I am afraid that we will not be able to say it!" ”

East 'Gate' Qingdao: "Why can't you say it? ”

Yang Zhizhong said: "There is no name! ”

East 'Gate' Qingdao: "Why is there no name!" The name is revenge! The Ryuzoji family ambushed me on my way to Hakata, causing me to almost die in a foreign land! If you don't take revenge, you will be called a gentleman! ”

This time, it was originally Longzao Temple to come to avenge the hatred of the East 'Gate' Qing for taking his wife, but as soon as the situation reversed, the East 'Gate' Qing fell down and beat a rake, but it was to avenge the ambush of the Longzao Temple's family! Yang Zhizhong didn't want to mention the matter of "taking his wife" at this time, but said: "But he failed to harm the chief owner after all." ”

"Then you can't just leave it at that!" Dongmen' Qingdao: "Wait until I take him, and then decide whether to kill him or not!" Even if you don't kill him, at least you have to beat him***! He asked the people around him, "Do you say so?" ”

Japan's Warring States period only recognized the strong, who really calculated the nominal right and wrong? Since Zhu Wei has obeyed the force of Dongmen' Qing, then everything he says is right, and he said: "Not bad! How can you not take revenge for the ambush! ”

Yang Zhizhong was stunned, but the East Gate Qing laughed.

At that time, Matsuura Takashi ordered Tian An, a cage hand, to defend the city, and he ordered 500 soldiers and horses to be the right wing of the East 'Gate' Qing, and more than 1,000 troops were reduced to the left flank, all the way to the Shuijiang. Yang Zhizhong said: "The chief owner is young and crazy, and he doesn't listen to my words very much recently, but I can't let him mess around!" So he went to find Yu Buci and told him his hidden worries, saying: "We are lucky to win this time, but we can't make trouble so endlessly!" If you 'force' people to go too far, the dog will jump over the wall in a hurry! Can we really fight all the way through and draw the whole of Japan? ”

Yu Buzhi said: "You are right! I will rush to it and persuade the chief owner to accept it when he sees it. ”

When he arrived at Shuijiang City, the East 'Gate' Qing had already entered the city to post an order. The east 'gate' Qingjian saw that although Shuijiang City was simple, and the countryside was a little richer than that of Jiangnan, it was not as good as it, but if it was owned by himself, it would have the respect of ripping the soil, and he was quite emotional in his heart, and said to Longxin: "When I came here, I suddenly felt that I was like a prince!" ”

Yu Buxi was startled when he heard this, and thought, "The chief owner probably doesn't plan to stay here for a long time!" ”

Matsuura Takanshin said with a smile: "The majesty of the East 'Gate' monarch is now far superior to that of the princes of one side!" Otherwise, the king of the East 'Gate' will stay in Japan, and he will be regarded as a returning minister, and if he gets a high-ranking and powerful lord, maybe Kyoto will admit it! ”

Dongmen' Qing shook his head and said: "The princes of the side I am talking about are not the princes of Japan, but the princes of the Central Plains!" However, China has been unified for a long time, and the marquis with a different surname is in name only, even if it is sealed, I dare not ask for it. ”

The upheaval in front of Hibi had quickly affected the whole of Kyushu at this time, and after the news broke, the merchants of Hirado rushed to ask if Higashimon Keike needed help, and there were also countless ships on the Goto side to Chikugo, as if as long as Higashimon Kei wanted to hunt down Iekan and they would be attacked from the waterway. After knowing this, Dongmenqing said to him: "These snobbish guys! When I was uncertain about my success or failure, how could I not see them so concerned! ”

Yu did not hesitate to persuade: "Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, human nature, the owner of the ship does not have to pay too much attention to it." Moreover, many of them have borrowed our ships and helped us deliver supplies beforehand. Didn't there be 500 people on the other side of the five islands? ”

Dongmen' Qingdao: "There are those who are willing to help us at that time, but after all, they are a minority!" ”

Yu Buxi hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Master, I dare to say something unpleasant!" Now although we are majestic, in fact, it seems to be in danger! Be careful! It is difficult to predict what Wang Wufeng's side will think of this matter, and how the other Japanese princes will react! In the unlikely event that the owners of the Goho ship do not approve of your actions, and the Japanese daimyo attack us en masse, then we are only afraid...... I'm afraid that I won't even be able to go back! ”

Dong 'Gate' Qing snorted: "I know what you mean! But I can't stop now! It must go on again! It's so majestic that someone can't sit still! ”

Therefore, he led the army to "force" the queen to "hand" the Puchi clan to "hand" out of the dragon temple. The Puchi clan saw the iron cannon outside the city in the city, and did not dare to fight, and the dragon temple family went to the city to look, and found the Puchi supervisor and cried loudly, saying: "I have been sheltered several times, and I dare not be involved anymore!" "He sent people out of the city, saying that as long as the East 'Gate' Qing was willing to withdraw from the army, he was willing to cut his stomach.

East 'Gate' Qingdao: "Seppuku? We don't have this rule! Please ask him to come out, I will go to Shuijiang City with him to make it clear! ”

Hearing this reply, Jia Jian was very indignant, thinking that Dong'men Qing did not let himself die with dignity, but wanted to insult himself, Pu Chi Jian Sheng said: "These Tang guests are too deceitful! "Just refuse! Jia Jian refused, and said: "They have iron cannons and big barrels, which are sharp weapons that we have never fought against!" Just go out of the city, it's good to win! In case of defeat, even the Otomo family will be implicated! The stakes are too high to be taken lightly! ”

The Otomo clan is one of the most powerful daimyo in Kyushu, and the Kamachi clan is a tributary of the Fujiwara Kita family's Utsunomiya clan, and has been a daimyo vassalage of the Chikugo clan for generations. The relationship between these wealthy families in Kyushu was quite complicated, and the Shaoji family and the Ryuzoji family were already in opposition, but the Shaoji family was supported by the Otomo family, while the Ryuzoji family still had a close relationship with the Kamachi clan. But the master-slave relationship between the Otomo family and the Kamachi clan is still there, and if the East 'Gate' Kei fires outside the city, it will be like declaring war on the Otomo family!

If it was a person who knew the details of the wealthy families, he might not dare to move the Puchi clan at this time, but the East Gate Qing was young and vigorous, and he actually led the army to "force" him, and the Japanese in this era have always been in awe of China. Iekane's concern is that if the Otomo family is dragged into the water and defeated again by the hands of the Higashi'mon Kei, the failed Otomo family will become the object of prying eyes of the Ouchi family in the north and the Shimazu family in the south! The situation in the whole of Kyushu will be turned upside down!

Jia Jian didn't dare to take this risk, and Jian Sheng didn't dare! Therefore, after the two hugged their heads and cried for a while, Iekane still put on the strictest samurai costume and went out of the city to meet the East Gate with a mortal heart.
