Chapter 280. The Prince's Revenge

Kyoto City is crying for a few taels of meat, but Hagi City is no longer a matter of a few taels of meat, it is really a sea of corpses and blood, and the road to hegemony in the world really can't tolerate a little setback, and the battle of the river, the results of the Maori family's three-month hard battle collapsed, and then it was a jump to the bottom, and someone then pulled out the second tower, the highland tower crystal, and directly to the base.

It's a pity that there is no blood fountain here to resurrect the blood, every drop of blood shed, it is really a drop of blood, every second, there is a river of blood here.

"Step on!"

The heart-rending sensation peculiar to the Japanese language erupted with the wave of the military fan, and the soldiers wearing large helmets and carcasses rushed forward with shouts.

咣~咣~

Facing this samurai who raises a knife to chop your dog's head, it is not too high on the city wall, but it is a flickering firelight, after all, it is half a Kichi Dan daimyo, and the number of iron cannons of the Maori family is still quite a lot, and there must be a few thousand if there are not 10,000, plus the big barrel, it is also full of momentum, and the samurai in the charge are constantly in the projectile storm.

However, the coalition forces under the city don't care! The Senju, Akizuki and other families that the Maori family had worked so hard to conquer, after the First World War, they turned to the shogunate under the banner of the red flag, and at this time they were about to prove that their hearts were towards the Tokugawa family, and the feudal samurai could only die.

Besides, even in the face of gunfire in the sky, the coalition forces still have the advantage, and there are many of them!

Rushing within a few dozen paces, the rain of arrows that were twice as dense as the gunfire at the head of the castle was overwhelmingly reflected, even if it was protected by wooden guards, it was the Maori samurai who fell to the ground one after another, and then, dense ladders were erected on the wall, and the warriors like ants climbed up like trees.

Mao Jue's bayonet is now seen by many Japanese daimyos, but now it is not equipped by anyone, first of all, the iron cannon of the Japanese country still relies on manual grinding, but Dongjiang has relied on machine tools to drill, the difference in productivity is more than ten times, the main equipment of the Japanese is still a big gun, a katana, even if equipped with a bayonet, in fact, the effect is not to fight.

And the bayonet, what the Japanese called the sword, also needs to be specially built, and it costs a lot of extra manpower and material resources, no matter where the daimyo is, it is easy not to be willing to spend this more than unjust money, let alone the poor Maori family, in a hurry, those iron cannon samurai can only withdraw to the back, and the sword samurai make up for it, and the hand-to-hand combat with the samurai swords of the various families who came over the wall is a mess, and the narrow wall is constantly screaming and falling.

Standing under the city, Matsudaira Nobutsuna's eyes, what he saw was a ball of firelight, those wooden barriers were scrambling to ignite and turn into ashes, the walls also became charred black, and the potholes were smashed by the people below with big hammers, and a city wall even collapsed with a bang, and the samurai on both sides who fought on it all screamed and fell down, fortunately, the wall was not high, as long as the face was not black and fell on something sharp, patted the ass and could fight, if it was the kind of wall of more than ten meters high in the Central Plains, it would be over if it fell again.

On the third day of the attack, Hagi Castle was already in a state of weakness, and in the evening, with the sound of cries, the outer walls of Hagi Castle fell like a ripe melon, and the family samurai who fought hard outside the city rushed into the city excitedly, and clouds of black smoke rushed into the sky.

But this is also fortunate that it is the Wakoku Hirayama Lianguo Castle, which gnawed down only the outer Sannomaru, and there are several sub-cities around it, and the Honmaru Castle Guard is still the most difficult to gnaw in front of him, so watching the troops loot in the city, Matsudaira Nobutsuna has no joy of victory on his face.

"Lord Aoyama, is there any news from Kyushu Island?"

"It's still the same, the big names are complaining, shouting and begging for a reduction in the feudal clan and the annual tribute, and then the house is repaired and the city is repaired, the same as before!"

Although he is a samurai, but Aoyama Yukinari is more inclined to a civilian official, and he is obviously not interested in the bloody battlefield, he is also an old man with a big heart, others bleed and lost their heads, he can still sleep, and he slept comfortably on the platform for half an afternoon, listening to Matsudaira Nobutsuna's question, the old man finally yawned vaguely, and replied slowly.

But listening to this answer, Matsudaira Nobutsuna was obviously dissatisfied, his eyes were staring at the battlefield, and his mouth was stiff.

"It's news from the Kuroda family!"

"Shin Tsuna, your tone is more and more like Ishida Sancheng back then!"

That duke, one of the protagonists of the Sekigahara War, is not straight, but this mouth is too hard, and he plays right and wrong in front of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and offends many people.

But with a word of reproach, Aoyama Yukinari raised his gray eyebrows again.

"Are you suspicious of the Kuroda family?"

"As long as it's not the Tokugawa clan, it's all suspicious, not to mention, the Kuroda family has also produced Kuroda Kanbei!"

"Kuroda Nagamasa, who can take over, is also the hero of the Sekigahara War, if it weren't for his persuasion to surrender to our Sekigahara God of War, His Excellency Kobayakawa, this war would still have been fought."

I didn't want to argue with Aoyama Yukinari, Matsudaira Nobutsuna's eyes fell on Hagi Castle in front of him again, and it was useless to say anything, only to take Hagi Castle in front of him as soon as possible and kill the top Maori family of the Western Daimyo Daimyo, then the entire Western Congress was once again immersed in the fear of the Tokugawa family.

"Pass the order, restore order to the troops, and continue the attack!"

"What !!"

…………

Not only outside the castle, Matsudaira Nobutsuna is in a hurry, but inside the castle, the Maori family is even more urgent.

"Skull Death!"

As the sun set, the samurai of the various clans, who had been attacking for a day, poured their anger on the prisoners of war, or the heart-rending eruption peculiar to the Japanese language, the katana held high was neatly slashed, and the heads of a row of Maori samurai kneeling on the ground also rolled out neatly, and the blood splattered with the setting sun was intertwined, and it was even impossible to see clearly.

With a snort, the curtain was torn down, and on the castle tower, Maori Xiu shook his head and paced back.

Before the army, he expected this scene, but in the past three months, he has marched all the way to the fast, with nearly 100,000 troops, which once gave him a kind of hope, maybe the shogunate is nothing, but just one battle, it will burst his dream bubble, and now, the Maori family is on the verge of extinction, such as the Takeda family, the Hojo family, the Nagamune Ibe clan, and the Niko clan disappeared in the long river of history.

"Everyone, it's time to ask the Toyotomi family and the Dongjiang for help!"

This sentence is really bitter, marking the failure of the Maori family to win the world for the second time, and at this time, when he asked the Toyotomi family for help, he was suppressed under the Toyotomi family again, and he would not get any good conditions, and even as a party asking for help, the Toyotomi family would definitely take something from himself.

The dream of a generation has been shattered again!

"My lord! There are still 20,000 people in Hagi City, and each branch is also actively preparing for war, so we can still fight! ”

Full of unwillingness, Shidaoliang Village, who had a few more wounds on his face, as well as the descendants of the eighteen Maori generals such as Katsura Chengxin and Akakawa Tadasuke, a large group of people were all shouting excitedly, but listening to their voices, they didn't wait for Maori Xiu to express their attitude, and the old man on the other end, Kanemi Amano, also knocked on the floor violently.

"Hagi Castle is indeed still capable of fighting! But the Fengchen family, the Dongjiang people gather troops, and it also takes time! As soon as we fight the mountains and rivers are exhausted, the Toyotomi family has not waited, and the Maori family has already perished!"

"Besides, if they really fight to the point of one soldier and one soldier, even if the Toyotomi family comes, will the Maori family still be useful to them?"

Indeed, the Maori family's army is an important opportunity for the Toyotomi family to return to the Japanese country, but the two bet on different things, the Maori family gambled to the end of the bet on the name of the whole clan, including the following genealogy retainers, but for Mao Jue, what was lost was just an opportunity, he could also provoke the next Maeda family, Kuroda family, and even if it was really not good, it was unreasonable for him to go into battle bare-chested.

Therefore, Mao Jue can be relied on, but the Maori family is unreliable.

After a deathly silence, Shidaoliang Village finally threw himself to his knees with a flutter.

"Governor! The last general is willing to go out of the city and go to the Dongjiang River to ask for reinforcements!"

"The family governor, the subordinate is also willing to be this envoy to fight for the best negotiation conditions for the Maori family!" The field is also on the ground.

It was really exhausting, and in the eyes of a group of retainers, Maori Xiu turned around tiredly, waved his hand back gently, and signaled them to go!

"Lord, take care!"

There was another heavy kowtow, and the two of them crawled out of the door.

That night, more than 200 cavalry launched a fierce attack on the southeast of the Tokugawa encirclement, and after fighting the price of more than 160 cavalry, a small mission was finally sent out.

…………

At the beginning of February of the seventh year of Chongzhen, Jeju Island.

"Raise your gun!"

"Drink!"

"Close!"

"Hah!"

In the familiar sound of military orders, countless phalanxes were training on the old land of Tamna, which had only been civilized in the spring and snow, which seemed to have become the symbol of the Dongjiang River.

Among them, the southeast corner of the six thousand Shandong soldiers is actually the most ruthless training, these two months they are eye-opening, good guys, there are fish and meat, although not enough rice, but also small rice porridge is full, a day may be able to see white flour steamed buns, this is passable, like the landlord, even if you don't get military salary, to come here to be a soldier is also willing.

Besides, the first major event of a month is the payment of military salaries! There are ten regiments of pro-soldiers, five regiments from other towns plus the Dongjiang Cavalry Team are sent by the general himself, and the remaining reserve soldiers are also half paid, themselves? I can't see a big word, and I will smile and say that I will go back to the town, but what kind of urine sex can they not know in the court?

Now the only hope, it is said that in this war, the good performance can be included in the Dongjiang River, or the whole family migrates, for this future, many people are also training desperately, so many heads are cut.

Not to mention, the strength of the Shandong soldiers has come up, and the hearts of the troops have also risen up, this infantry formation is still training the formation, and the first regiment of Wenmeng has already stripped off its arms, and they are falling against each other in the snow, every time it is a real fight, as if it is already summer, everyone is sweating, falling, and demonstrating to grin at the Shandong soldiers, and shout.

Wen Meng went crazy, and the five brothers of the Liu family were reluctant again, the cavalry of the two regiments, advancing like a wall, really felt like playing a game, and they were almost even moving the horses' hooves in unison, making sharp turns, knocking on the side, and the tactics of one attraction after another were about to be played into a circus by them.

The soldiers worked hard, the generals were relaxed, they were vigorous, Mao Jue actually had time to sit on Chengtou Mountain in Xihai Fort, open a parasol, and drink warm tea.

Recently, everything has been going well, and the ninja leader Inoue Teng, who has returned to Kyushu, has sent a message across the sea, and on the island of Kyushu, the seven big and small masters who have been fooled on the road have been led by Kuroda Toshinaga to cut down Tokugawa Ieyasu's son-in-law, the Arima family, and the Kyushu coalition army is about 30,000 people.

On the other hand, Song Xiance also got the position of Guan Bai.

Almost not long after the two letters were put down, the confidential secretary Adriana ran up with a twist of her little buttocks, looking at the three-star family emblem printed on the envelope, Mao Jue didn't even open the letter, and ran down the castle quickly.

Although the place has changed, the life of the Jiafei Hall and Inspector Yuan's family seems to have not changed, in the sunny house of the castle, Yuan Chonghuan is reading a book at a glance, Kunimatsumaru is reading seriously there, Chiyohime This girl is suffering with a little face, from time to time peeking at the mature uncle Yuan Inspector, on the other side, the old lady is still working, but this time, in her hands, the one who is about to finish is a pair of carcass pills.

But at this moment, the door was kicked open, and several people were stunned, Mao Jue rushed in with interest, and swept all the four treasures on the table to the ground, and before Chiyohime, the chick went crazy, a helmet with Japanese characteristics, and the gilded iron bar behind it was like the sun's rays in the back of the head.

"Ma Lan will pay for it immediately!"

Looking at the golden mirror plate in front of the helmet, Kai Hall was quite a little nostalgic, and shook his head in a daze, this was Toyotomi Hideyoshi's favorite helmet back then, the helmet that conquered the world!

On the other end, looking at Guosong Pill, who was still a little stupid with his battle helmet on, Yuan Chonghuan sighed in a complicated way, and shook his head gently.

This scene of the revenge of the Zhao orphans can be regarded as completely sung!
