Just as the shogunate army was dispersing, Burning Sky got out of the Shogunate army that began to break through and escape, and looked at the wise army that had begun to pursue the enemy, Burning Sky whispered to the right Ichisuke behind him: "Poor Kou Mo chase, let them escape, and inform everyone to slow down the speed of pursuit!" ”

Burning Sky then pulled his men out of the battlefield to make way for the pursuing Akechi army, and Akechi Mitsuhide walked down from the gate. Burning Sky walked quickly to Wise Mitsuhide, bowed his head to Akechi Mitsuhide and said, "Wise Lord, repair it here, and please go first!" ”

After hearing this, Akechi Mitsuhide glanced at the people behind the Burning Sky, and said with a smile at the Burning Sky: "The Mingshamen raided the enemy with quite a lot of casualties, and it is also appropriate to repair it here, I will meet with Lord Shibata first, and then you can follow quickly." Seeing that the burning sky bowed his head and promised, Akechi Mitsuhide said to the army under his command: "Rush up and join the forces of Lord Shibata and besiege Honmaru of Kinkata Castle!" ”

Burning Sky looked at Akechi Mitsuhide, who led the attendants to leave, turned to Youichizuke and the others and said, "Each person cuts off a head!" After listening to the words of the burning sky, Youyisuke and the others were stunned for a moment, and then immediately began to act. Seeing that everyone was in action, Burning Sky walked up to the samurai he had just stabbed to death, cut off his head with the ribs around his waist, and then wrapped the head around his waist with the fingers behind his back.

After pulling out the naginata on the corpse, Burning Sky looked up at the people who were almost finished, and said to the people who were cleaning up: "Hurry up and finish what we have in hand, we are ready to join the rest of the army!" ”

Some people still wanted to cut off a head, but they were burned and reprimanded: "Presumptuous, I will say one by one, and those who violate the ink greed will not be punished!" Those who still wanted to cut off a head immediately stopped what they were doing. Incinerator circled around the somewhat loose queue, and the blood oozing from the fingers around his waist wrapped around the head also dripped on the ground. Some of Ashigaru felt the blood oozing from his waist and his fingers flowing onto his legs, and the hand holding the long soldier couldn't help but tremble.

After inspecting the sky for a while, he looked at the direction in which the Akechi Army was going to support, and said to his men, "Everyone go with me to besiege Honmaru in Imagata Castle!" After listening to the words of the Burning Sky, everyone followed the Burning Sky and rushed towards the place where the Shibata Army was fiercely fighting, and they still had a lot of corpses, and the reserve echelon of the Wise Army, which arrived later, stepped forward to behead the remaining hundred or so corpses.

At this time, the shogunate army in Katata Castle had gradually lost the advantage of Ninomaru under the strong attack of Shibata Katsuie's army, and under the command of the general who defended the castle, the shogunate army had begun to shrink the defensive line, abandon Ninomaru, which had been almost captured, and gather the remaining forces to retreat to Honmaru.

But the Shibata army finally bit the shogunate army to the death, so that the shogunate army did not dare to open the door of Honmaru easily. Honmaru's shogunate army basically all gathered near the gate of Honmaru, in order to prevent the Oda family from breaking through from the front, the shogunate army hoarded many elites at the gate of Honmaru and Ninomaru, which is why Akechi Mitsuhide was the first to break through the side gate of Ninomaru, and Shibata Katsuie still paid a large number of casualties to break through the gate even after using a large barrel bombardment.

At this time, on the frontal battlefield of present-day Katata Castle, the Shibata Army made it difficult for the shogunate army in Ninomaru to retreat to the main maru. Most of the elites in Honmaru did not dare to easily open the gate of Honmaru to counterattack the Shibata army, so they had to pass through the narrow room on the wall of Honmaru Castle and attack the imposing Shibata army with iron cannons and bows and arrows.

The arrival of the side gate rout really made the Shibata army, which was fighting with the shogunate army, shake a little, thinking that the wise army on the flank was defeated, and the shogunate army guarding the side gate came to encircle him.

Niwa Nagahide, who had already brought his attendants to the castle gate, looked at the shogunate army who had "killed" from the flank, and said to his attendants, "Quick! Follow me up to withstand the flank attacks of the shogunate army, and buy time for my own army to adjust! With that, Niwa Nagahide pulled out the sword at his waist and headed for the shogunate army on the flank.

Niwa Nagahide's elite attendants, who numbered less than 100 men, rushed not far in front of the shogunate army on the flank, and found that the shogunate army on the flank did not seem to have the will to fight. Then a sharp-eyed attendant said to Niwa Nagahide, "My lord, the shogunate army is a rout army that has been repelled by Lord Akechi, and Lord Akechi is now chasing these shogunate troops behind!" ”

Niwa Nagahide listened to the words of the attendants and immediately made a decision, and shouted to the attendants beside him: "Block the way of the Shogunate's defeated army, and cooperate with the wise Ten Guards to destroy these Shogunate defeated troops!" After listening to Niwa Nagahide's order, the attendants shouted at the Oda army that had not yet engaged: "Quickly follow Niwa-sama to destroy the shogunate army!" ”

The samurai and ashigaru, who were at the back of the echelons, looked at the battle in front of them for a while and a half, and saw that Niwa Nagahide was here, so he immediately followed behind Niwa Nagahide.

The fleeing shogunate army looked at the Oda army gathered in front of them, and the belief in fleeing in their hearts gradually lost, and suddenly a samurai shouted; "I know the general of the Oda family in front of me, Yonegoro Zuo Niwa Nagahide! If we kill this person, the Oda army will definitely be scattered, and we will have a chance to turn defeat into victory! But his voice was quickly drowned out by the thunder of the iron cannons fired from the Honmaru, and even some of the routs began to slow down and prepare to surrender to the Oda army.

However, the Niwa Nagahide army, which had originally gathered to stop the shogunate's rout, fell in large pieces after the sound of iron cannons. Niwa Nagahide, who was protected by his attendants, looked at the smoke rising from behind the walls of Honmaru Castle in Katatajo, and shouted to his attendants, "Beware of the iron cannons of the shogunate army!" With that, Niwa Nagahide took the sword in his hand and rushed towards the Shogunate rout, which had regained some of its fighting spirit.

Shibata Katsuya listened to the content of the reports from the heralds who kept running in the main formation, and said to Sakuma Morimasa who was guarding the main formation: "Morimasa, you lead the iron artillery team of the main family to support Gorou Zuo's siege of the city, just say that my Quan Roku has a fixed number in his heart, let him be careful on the front line!" After listening to Shibata Katsuie's words, Sakuma Morimasa bowed half-kneeling to Shibata Katsuie, got up and led the iron artillery team guarding in front of the main camp and said, "Follow me to support Niwa-sama in attacking the castle!" ”

At this time, Burning Sky and the others followed behind the wise Mitsuhide army, and after hearing the sound of Fang Cai's iron cannon, Burning Sky ordered everyone to find a house to take refuge. Suzuki Heavy Industries, who was standing behind the Burning Sky, took the iron cannon behind him in his hand and said to the Burning Sky: "My lord, I will take the life of the samurai upstairs for you!" After saying that, Suzuki Heavy Industries glanced at Ichisuke Youkai and several other samurai, and Ichisuke Youkaisuke took off the Nanban Iron Cannon on his back and nodded at Suzuki Heavy Industries.

The two quickly reloaded, and the other samurai removed the heavy bows they were carrying and placed their arrows on the bowstrings. Burning Sky watched the movements of several people, and also poked his head out, looked at the two negative flag samurai who kept going down on the watchtower to convey the news, and said to several people: "Kill these two, and each person will be rewarded with the same money!" After listening to the words of the burning sky, Suzuki Heavy Industries smiled and said to the right Ichisuke: "Mingkong enters the Tao, concentrate on one mind!" ”
