Chapter 220: Total Annihilation

( For Komiyayama Harukatsu's praise, Fujido Takatora just smiled, compared with the thousands of battles in Korea, this sneak attack on the Ono Army did not arouse his great interest, looking at the remnants of the defeated army fleeing in all directions under the mountain, Fujido Takatora did not rejoice, but ordered the sergeants on both sides of the mountain pass to shrink the defensive line and move closer to the mountain col; The ambushes on the peaks on both sides also slowly marched towards the mountainside along the route of the fire—there were relatively many shrubs at the foot of the mountain, and even after burning for more than an hour, the fire did not weaken significantly, and in the process, the intensity of the attack did not weaken in the slightest, but became more intense as the area narrowed

Fujido Gaohu's intention was obvious, he wanted to wipe this army into the net, and he would never allow a single person to be left alive

In order to find a way to survive for the remaining sergeants, Jubei reluctantly handed over the head of Atsumi Shige to Ogasawara Takakiyo, who was sitting in Kitayamaguchi, even so, Fujido Takatora still did not give the order for a ceasefire Hearing the sound of iron cannons on the mountainsides on both sides, Ogasawara Takakiyo understood, he invited Shibei to the formation, and gave him and the more than 200 sergeants in the col two choices: either struggle in pain as now, and finally die under the iron cannons and bows and arrows; Either you can kill yourself quickly, so that even if you die, it will be a kind of honor

Jubei didn't seem to be too shocked as if he had guessed what would be the outcome, and he calmly accepted Ogasawara Takakiyo's proposal, turning back to the col for about a quarter of an hour, when Fujido Takatora suddenly ordered the surrounding ashigaru to stop shooting

Through the burning bushes, the Toyotomi army around the col found that a large number of remnants of the Ono army had committed suicide by disembowelment under the leadership of the Ten Guards, but this was only the realization of the samurai, and there were still more than 100 Ashigaru who were unwilling to die here, and rushed towards the mountain pass like crazy, believing that even if such a dense crowd withstood the rain of bullets, at least a small number of people would escape, and they all naively thought that they would be lucky enough to be one of the "small group".

It's a pity that Fujido Takatora didn't think so, and he fired three shots in a row to remind Ogasawara Takakiyo under the mountain that it was time to lift the big barrel out

This time I went to Osaka, in order to deal with the cumbersome siege, Xiubaomen selected two lighter ones from the five red-clothed cannons offered by Li Dan and handed them to Fujido Takatora I thought that these two large cylinders would lie quietly on the carriage and follow him straight to Osaka, but I didn't expect to meet such a sergeant who didn't know how to lift on the way, and there was no way Fujido Takatora had to order them to test the cannon, so that everyone could see the strong strength of the Toyotomi family

"Do you really want to use a big tube?"

Although he was somewhat skeptical of Fujido Takatora's orders, Ogasawara Takakiyo still had to obey his arrangement and ordered the sergeant to blast the two red-coated cannons that had already assembled the pedestal at Kitayamaguchi

"Boom" "Boom"

Two earth-shattering bangs instantly blasted the entire mountain pass into dust, and because the cannonballs hit the rolling stones that had fallen earlier, the huge stones shattered into countless stalks the size of human heads, and these rubbles hit the Ono army who tried to escape from it at a very fast speed, and in an instant, the ground was full of torn corpses, and the few sergeants who still breathed were also scarred and lying on the ground unable to move, begging the Toyotomi army on the mountain to let them die happily

"If you knew this was the case, why should you give up the dignity of a samurai?"

Fujido Takatora stared with disdain at the narrow col below the mountain that seemed to be scorched by the fire of hell, and the strong smell of burning corpses was emanating from the mountain wind, which drifted down the mountain wind to the mountainside and mountain pass, causing many soldiers to bend down and gag

"One more salvo will clean up the battlefield" Fujido Takatora bluntly rejected the request of the Yamashita Ono Army, and ordered the surrounding troops to continue to look for and shoot the soldiers who had not yet landed on the ground

Under the continuous gunfire and the torture of bows and arrows, the sound of wailing became weaker and weaker, and finally disappeared completely, following the orders of Fujido Takatora, after the smoke cleared, the sergeants entered the col to check if there were any survivors, and the fate of these people would not change much, but they would die under the bamboo spear of Ashigaru and the sword of the samurai, and it was obviously much more painful to die than to be shot through the heart by a projectile

Accompanied by Harukatsu Komiyayama and Takakiyo Ogasawara, Fujido Takatora went to the col and listened to Ogasawara's report while inspecting the severed heads of the sergeants

"My lord, this time our army killed a total of 815 rebels, including 205 samurai, 800 ashigaru, and 10 ninjas.

Looking at the neatly stacked bloody heads in front of him, Fujido Gaohu couldn't help frowning: "If it weren't for the rebellion of Osamu Ohno, how could these imperial horses suffer such bitter consequences?" Everyone listened, cut off as many heads, and report them to the overseers, and go back to their own rewards; These heads are buried on the spot, standing on the wood to make notes, and when the matter is over, contact their families, and they must be buried properly."

"Ha" Ogasawara Takakiyo bowed down and agreed, and was just about to turn around and gather the army, when he suddenly remembered something, so he had to stop: "Minbu, the head of Fangcai Xiaoqiao Village also led thirty peasant soldiers to help, I don't know ......"

"I saw it on the mountain," Fujido Gaohu nodded: "If it weren't for him to report this time, how could our army see through Atsumi's plan?" Although he is only famous, his merits are not inferior to ours, and you tell him, according to what Fang just told him, as soon as the war is over, I will ask the lord for his life, and fight for him the knowledge of seven hundred stones."

"Understood, I'll go tell him" With that, Ogasawara Takakiyo left the col and walked towards the land where he had been waiting for him at the pass

Seeing this scene, Komiyayama Harukatsu sighed with emotion: "This time to be able to completely annihilate the rebels, it is really God's help, if there was no young girl who bullied the ground when Atsumi re-entered Xiaoqiao Village earlier, how could that person take the initiative to provide information for our army?" ”

"You're too naïve," Fujido Gaohu smiled coldly: "If it's just because of his daughter, he will definitely not dare to take this risk, in today's world, only fame and fortune can make people take risks, you should also know that Atsumi reaffirmed the promise to him of 200 stones, hehe, he also underestimated these rural villagers, Xiaoqiao Village is a relatively wealthy village near Osaka, the annual tribute will never be less than 400 stones, and when the harvest is good, it can even reach 600 stones, do you think that land will be against the family because of only 200 stones?" Of course, his daughter is also one thing, but in the final analysis, it is just a high-sounding excuse, and she is not even as good as an animal in the face of fame and fortune."

ps: "Total extinction" Japanese is "ぜんめつ", I think some Japanese is still quite interesting, looking through the Japanese literature a lot, some fake business card kana can probably guess some meaning, hehe, at least there can be some subjective opinions
