Chapter 136: The End of the Road

Just when the Hojo Army was completely collapsed, a hussar suddenly appeared in the dark, and the first general was armed with a spear, and the blocker was invincible, killing the Hojo Army, and what made the Hojo Army collapse even more was ...... This hussar came out of the direction of the big camp! Could it be that Tsukahara Moryū led the army to break through the camp? In this way, isn't the two strongest reserves of the Hojo Army, Huang Bei and Qing Bei, already ......

When Hojo saw this scene, he seemed to be suddenly pushed into the icy water, and he couldn't help but shiver, especially the military match that he was holding tightly, which made his palms numb and sour like a numb, and this sense of powerlessness and despair was like a virus, and the military match went down his palm, to his arm, and to his heart. The Hojo clan wanted to shout, wanted to roar, wanted to struggle, but his lips moved slightly, but he could only make a strange sound, and after a long time, he squeezed out a few words: "Hojo family...... It's over......"

Tominaga Naokakatsu also trembled at the bottom of his heart when he saw the people killed in the direction of the big camp, but he quickly forced himself to calm down, and after carefully observing the military general in the dark, he breathed a long sigh of relief, but then showed a vigilant gaze, secretly glanced at the Hojo clan, and found that the other party was still in fear, and after he had not come back to his senses, he strode forward and shouted: "Quickly protect the lord's retreat!! After saying that, he and everyone picked up the immobile Hojo clan and ran to the rear.

After using the sound of the conch horn to make the Hojo Army have a strategic miscalculation, Ota Shimasa immediately led 300 samurai of the Ota clan to attack the Hojo Army's battle formation, and achieved a huge success beyond imagination. At this time, Ota Zimasa beckoned his people to retreat immediately, trying to block some of the Chibi and Shirabi who had rushed into the city first.

Yasuei Shimizu, who was in charge of commanding the troops, stood at a relatively low back, so after being attacked by Ota Shimasa at night, he immediately retreated from the castle and snatched out most of the white samurai and almost half of the red bi. Although he is not sure about the situation of the Hojo clan, but Shimizu Yasuei does not dare to be careless at all, whether it is Tsukahara Moryū leading the main force of the Tsukahara army to attack, or the Takeda army is in battle against the water, it is by no means something that the Hojo army can fight against at this time, and the red and white bei who cannot be in battle formation in the dark have no ability to resist in front of the other party, but it is better to retreat immediately and save the strength of the Hojo army. If both Akabi and Hakubi were to be explained here, counting Kurobei, who had been hit hard in the Battle of Fuchu Castle, would have gone three out of five! Today's Hojo Army really can't afford such losses.

And the heart of the person concerned, the Hojo clan, is almost crazy, he finally entered Edo Castle, and he was about to break the myth of the invincibility of the Tsukahara army, and made immortal feats, but as a result, Ota Zimasa's night attack instantly knocked him down from the clouds and fell hard into the mud, and the grievances in his heart were self-evident. After being attacked by Ota Shimasa, the Hojo Army's heart was shaken, and the Tsukahara Army, which had been suppressed and beaten by the Hojo clan, was greatly boosted in morale and almost trapped the Hojo clan to death in Edo Castle.

The Hojo clan saw that it was impossible to do it, even if he was unwilling, he didn't dare not withdraw, otherwise he would really have to give his life here.

However, the Hojo clan fought and retreated all the way, but the number of samurai around him was sharply reduced, after all, the Hojo clan was their backbone, if the Hojo clan moved forward bravely, then they would also be fearless in life and death, but the Hojo clan also began to retreat in a hurry, and the morale of these people plummeted. By the time the Hojo clan was only twenty steps out of the city gate, there were only more than 30 people left around him, these people were full of blood and bravery, obviously they were capable and elite who had been on the battlefield for a long time, some of them were survivors of the battle between the government and Taiwan, but more of them were transferred by Hojo Tsunashi from Huang Beizhong to serve as a personal guard for his son. Even though the Tsukahara army was a standing army and had undergone rigorous swordsmanship training, it was still difficult to break through the rudimentary defense line composed of these people in the pursuit battle.

At this moment, Ota Shimasa led the samurai of the Ota clan to arrive in time, intercepted the Hojo clan, and combined forces on both sides to surround the Hojo clan. But the Hojo clan in a desperate situation was also aroused to be ferocious, a heavy iron rod danced in his hand Huo Huo Shengfeng, in the face of the other party's slashing knife, Hojo clan Shigeru neither dodged, nor blocked, directly knocked down with a stick, what made people's scalp tingle was that the speed at which the Hojo clan, who was in a state of madness, wielded the iron rod faster than the speed of an experienced samurai wielding the sword! You can always smash the opponent's knife and the opponent's head before they slash you! Seeing that he was rushing left and right, although there was Ota Shigemasa commanding, so that the Hojo clan could not break out of the encirclement for a long time, but the huge Edo Castle Tsukahara army defenders, there was actually no one who was the enemy of the Hojo clan!

Seeing this, Honda Tadayan couldn't help but be anxious, the Tsukahara army is very important, and Ota's two night attacks are enough to establish his position in the Tsukahara army, but what about him? Why did he gain a foothold in the Tsukahara Army? On the first night of defending the city, the city gate was breached by the Hojo army? Seeing that it was difficult for the Tsukahara army to leave the Hojo clan, Honda Tadashi was in a hurry, and immediately shouted: "Iron artillery team, shoot immediately!! ”

"But with our own people, we can't fire!" An iron cannon said lightly.

As a result, Honda Tadaan slapped the other party on the spot: "Idiot! You're not going to shoot from the towers!! ”

Under the scolding of Honda Tadaan, the iron artillery team hurriedly ran up the city wall, and dozens of iron cannons were aimed at the Hojo clan and others who were surrounded by regiments. Soon, the sound of iron cannons sounded, and the elite of the Hojo Army who had survived a hundred battles were so vulnerable in the face of the rain of bullets, most of them struggled to get up again after being shot, but a drunken dizziness hit their hearts violently, and the battlefield and life gradually disappeared from their unwilling eyes.

Originally, the Hojo clan was the focus of attention, but when the samurai from Huang Bei realized that the Tsukahara army was about to use iron cannons to shoot, they actually rushed to the Hojo clan. Rao is iron cannon was intensively fired, but five or six people protected the Hojo clan in the middle, but they still failed to hurt the Hojo clan in the slightest. But when Hojo struggled to get up from the corpse, he was shocked to find that there were no more Hojo samurai around him, as if the whole world had abandoned him......

Ota Shigemasa looked at the Hojo clan who couldn't escape and the happy Honda Tadayasu, nodded to Honda Tadayasu, and came behind Honda Tadayasu. Honda Tadaan was stunned for a moment, but then he understood what the other party meant, Ota Zimasa had already been in the limelight enough, and the next credit was given to him. In fact, Ota Shigema, who has been relying on people for many years, is very proficient in the way of being a man, and he has already made immortal achievements, and the Hojo clan is just the icing on the cake for him. However, if he eats and wipes it up alone, then the other generals of the Tsukahara army who assisted him will be in vain, and it will inevitably arouse the hostility and disgust of the other party, so he took the initiative to take a step back and share the fruits of victory with Honda Tadayasu. So Honda Tadashi straightened the big armor on his body, and said solemnly to the Hojo clan: "Lord Shigeru, you have fulfilled your duty as a samurai, and we also admire your samurai style very much, but with all due respect, you have no hope of victory, please go into the castle for a while." ”

Surprised and glanced at Honda Tadashi, Ota's eyes flashed with a complicated light, originally he thought that the other party was just a junior with a little military talent and was appreciated by Tsukahara Molong, but this kind of thing to surrender the other party before the battle is not something ordinary people can do, not to mention, a living Hojo clan is far more valuable than a dead Hojo clan! The Hojo clan has served the Hojo family for two generations, and his father Hojo Tsusunari is the first general of the Hojo family, and he himself is the commander of the Red Bei in the five color preparations, once the other party surrenders, it will have an unimaginable effect on the disintegration of the Hojo family.

Covered in blood and embarrassed, the Hojo clan was exhausted at the moment, and even the usually light iron rod became extremely heavy, he looked at the morale of the Tsukahara army soldiers around him, fixed his eyes on the defense line of Odawara Castle, and gently put down the iron rod stained with the enemy's blood and brains, Honda Tadashi was overjoyed, and was about to speak, but Hojo suddenly pulled out the ribs around his waist, and looked up to the sky and roared: "Lord, I wish you good luck!!! As he spoke, he stabbed the sharp ribs at himself.
