Chapter 258: Katori Castle Finally Breaks Sabei Gives Credit

Looking at the gunpowder and projectiles sent by Tsuda Nobusumi's men, Sabei said to Sukeemon and Suzuki Heavy Industries behind him, "Please make a large baked jade!" ”

Hearing this, Suzuki Heavy Industries and Sukeemon looked at the gunpowder and projectiles sent, looked up at Sabei and said, "My lord, it's okay to have gunpowder, what are you going to do with the projectiles?" ”

After hearing this, Sabei smiled and said, "Let's talk about it when you are ready!" ”

After Sabei was about to take away the gunpowder and projectiles, Nobusumi Tsuda got up and walked outside the house, leaning in to see a group of people in the main pill staring cautiously at Ninomaru. After retracting his body, Tsuda Nobusumi glanced at the retainers hiding in the house, and walked around the house anxiously, and the hand holding the sword at his waist was also trembling.

When the people in Honmaru saw that the Oda army suddenly died down, they naturally strengthened their defenses. Although there are many common people, the ground servants and monks who serve as the backbone have a lot of experience in battle formations. If all the people were people who didn't know the military strategy, the Oda family would not have a few families and important ministers who would have been lost in their hands.

In this way, the two sides confronted each other between Ninomaru and Honmaru in Katori Castle, and from time to time Katori Castle Honmaru also fired a few projectiles or a few arrows at Ninomaru, or provoked the Oda Army in Ninomaru with insulting words.

The cold wind was mixed with the warmth and humidity of the sea, and Sabei, who had become accustomed to the atmosphere of the Warring States, was nervously directing Sukeemon and Suzuki Heavy Industries to stuff the remaining baked jade into the projectiles.

After taking a deep breath of cold air, Nobusumi Tsuda, whose arms were shaking more and more, said to his retainers, "Order everyone to charge once with a plank!" After speaking, he said to the attendant beside him: "Go and ask Sabei when he can do it!" ”

In the dense sound of iron cannons, Sukeemon and others carefully held one large and two small clay pots, and accompanied Sabei to the house where Tsuda Nobusumi commanded the army. Tsuda Nobusumi, who had some bruises on his face, saw that Sabei appeared in front of him again, so he walked up to Sabei with the sword on his waist and said, "Sabei, are you ready?" ”

When Sabei heard this, he looked at Tsuda Nobusumi, whose arm trembled a little obviously, and slowly took the large clay pot in Sukeemon's hand, and said to Tsuda Nobusumi: "This is the way to break the city!" ”

After Tsuda Nobusumi saw the big clay pot in Sabei's hand, he immediately said the words "baked jade", and then said to Sabei: "This thing is still somewhat useful against ships, if I could set fire to the city gate, I would have acted a long time ago, can this baked jade break through the city gate?" ”

Yanbi Tsuda Shincheng added: "I have also seen the baked jade of the water army, you are too big!" ”

After hearing this, Sabei handed the large clay pot in his hand to Sukeemon behind him, patted Tsuda Nobusumi's arm and said, "Shichibei, believe me!" ”

Soon the offensive forces withdrew again, and Sabei looked at the Sukeemon and the ninjas in front of him who tied the water-soaked bedding to the wooden plank, and said to the somewhat nervous people: "The key to this battle is all here, according to the method I gave you just now, put the big baked jade in front of the city gate, this lead must be carefully placed, and leave enough time for you to retreat!" ”

Tsuda Nobusumi on the side looked at the ninja who was wearing the belly roll, and said to the troops under his command: "Let the bow team cover them, don't spare the arrows, before the city is broken, we will go and withdraw the replenishment projectiles and arrows!" ”

After getting ready, Tsuda Nobusumi and Sabei and the others bowed their heads to the seven people in front of them and said, "Please!" ”

Sukeemon and the others, who were advancing towards the Honmaru Castle Gate with protective planks, were naturally subjected to the frantic shooting of the Honmaru Naka, and the archers under Tsuda Nobusumi and the bowers of the Sabei Guards could only fight back in front of them to buy time for Sukeemon and the others.

Sabei, who no longer has armor protection on his body, hides behind the house and secretly observes Sukeemon and others who are advancing towards Honmaru step by step, and next to him are also a few retainers and close servants without armor protection.

Sukeemon pressed against the reinforced wooden planks that had been hit by projectiles, and with difficulty he and his men advanced towards the castle gate.

Although the people of Honmaru didn't know what the Oda Army was doing, they couldn't let go of anything that was threatening. When the iron cannon and bow and arrow were weak, the fire arrows were used by the crowd, but how could ordinary fire arrows ignite the water-soaked bedding.

After climbing the steps in front of the Honmaru Gate with great difficulty, Sukeemon and the others entered the blind spot of iron cannons and bows. Everyone also quickly put down the wooden card, put the large baked jade against the wooden door and placed it on the stone steps, and then the remaining five people put on the wooden planks and slowly placed the lead on the stone steps.

Sukeemon and others, who appeared in the field of vision again, were instantly taken care of by the crowd. Seeing another of his men who had been knocked down, and there were only three wooden planks left to protect him, Sukeemon calmed down with nervousness, lit the lead, and then quickly put the plank on his back, and ran away from the main gate of Honmaru with an extremely funny and awkward shape.

Seeing this, the Oda Army, who was shooting at Honmaru, also quickly hid behind the surrounding houses according to the orders of Tsuda Nobusumi and Sabei. Seeing that the Oda army broke up and fled again, although the leaders felt a little weird, they still didn't think badly, if the Oda army that raided Katori Castle could not capture Katori Castle in a short time, retreat was their only choice, and when it came to a war of attrition, the Oda army that came from afar was not their opponent.

The crowd of people who pulled the bowstring watched the Oda samurai flee comically and released the last arrow of their memory from Sasama, and then they were taken away by a loud roar.

The stunned Sabei didn't expect that about three catties of gunpowder still had the power to blow up the wooden city gate in a clay pot with poor air tightness. For a while, Oda Jun and Ichizuku were stunned, and Tsuda Nobusumi also stared blankly at the front of Honmaru Gate, which was smashed out of a big hole, and even forgot to give the order to attack.

Looking at the crowd who fell heavily to the ground after being blown up, Zuobei pressed his left hand and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, he still didn't want to order any science and technology trees for liberal arts students like himself, and his wife and children on his side had not yet heated the kang head, so he became a pioneer in promoting scientific and technological progress, so let's continue to do it.

After a few breaths, Sabei, who gradually reacted, first stopped the excited Tsuda Nobusumi from giving the order to attack. Immediately, a ninja with a shot was sent out, and from the original site of the city gate, under the stone steps, two more shots were thrown at the screaming Honmaru. There were two more thunders, and the cry in Honmaru became even heavier.

Due to the high temperature generated by the explosion just now, Sabei prevented Tsuda Nobusumi from giving the order to attack. Seeing that Tsuda Nobusumi gradually calmed down, Sabei said to Tsuda Nobusumi: "Seven soldiers, I'll lead my men to clean up the battlefield first!" ”

After hearing this, Tsuda Nobusumi's eyes suddenly released essence, and his left hand on the saber shook slightly, and then glanced back at the retainers, and after seeing that everyone nodded slightly, he bowed his head and said to Sabei with all the retainers: "Thank you Sabei for your help in this battle!"
