No matter how good the weapons are, no one who can use them will not want to win the war. Although the remnants of the Nihonmatsu Domain were equipped with the latest equipment, they were able to master these weapons very well, so in the face of the strong Tosa Domain's soldiers, they were still the same as if they were about to collapse at the touch of a button.

Erhonsong gathered all the main forces to supply the mouth, but it was still like a layer of window paper, which was easily pierced by others. The big altar gate, which was only defended by more than 70 teenagers, suddenly became the last line of defense of the Nihonmatsu Domain. The group of children led by Kimura Kotaro had always been chirping like a flock of birds, but after they entered the defensive line, they did not make a sound. Kimura knew that this could not be said to be scared, because he himself was very nervous.

"Listen, everyone! Rather than surrender to the enemy and endure humiliation and steal his life, Nihonmatsu would rather choose to swear to the death to implement the path of faith and righteousness to the alliance and fight proudly! Listening to the gunfire of the enemy getting closer and closer, Kimura made a very simple pre-war mobilization for the teenagers.

"Prepare for defense, the enemy is coming!" Before Kimura's words were finished, the feudal priest Nikaido, who had come to help, began to cheer. Kimura turned around and saw that he could indeed see the enemy from afar.

"Reload, prepare!" Kimura nervously shouted orders.

It's a pity that he hasn't been able to hear the response of the teenagers, and a cannonball has already fallen in front of their position, and the shock wave generated by ** hung a hot wind on the position, and everyone instinctively fell to the ground. The boys struggled to get up and tried to get back to their shelters with straw bags and planks, but another shell flew over. This time, the shells fell closer, and many people were injured by the crumbling iron pieces and broken wood chips.

The injuries of the "Inoue, Ozawa......" teenagers are not very serious, but the scratching of the epidermis is enough to make them bleed, and the visual impact is too great. The injured person only felt that his limbs were constantly calling, and his whole body was out of strength, and if he was not injured, he was at a loss for what to do with his companions. They constantly call their friends by name, both to care about their peers and to vent their fears.

"Aim, shoot!" Everyone panicked, and only a few adults, such as Kimura and Nikaido, could barely calm down and raise their guns to fire back at the enemy. However, the firepower of their guns was thin, and it didn't have much effect at all, so Kimura could only shout loudly, hoping that these chicks who had seen blood for the first time could recover as soon as possible.

Amid Kimura's shouts, the boys finally came to their senses, knelt behind bunkers, and shot at the enemy according to Kimura's command. But a child is a child, and almost all of them, after pulling the trigger, did not pull the bolt to reload, but looked at the other side stupidly, trying to see if they had hit the target. If you don't shoot, you have to hang your head down, and if you shoot, you have to say excitedly twice, "Hee!" The breech-loading gun was in their hands, and it was not much faster than the rate of fire of the breech-loading gun.

The teenagers' concentrated fire attracted the enemy's firepower very well, and the flying bullets immediately put on a dozen stupid teenagers. The planks used by the samurai to build bunkers and defend against bows and arrows were okay, but they didn't do anything against bullets at all. Almost every time a person falls, the youth team will be chaotic for a while, and the firepower of the Datankou position will not be sustainable at all. The new government forces also had the opportunity to deploy calmly, and soon the mortar cannon invented by Yasuke Oyama, known as the "Yasuke Cannon", was moved to the front of the battle and began to shell the defense line of the boys.

Although the Armstrong cannon also uses *, it is a direct-fire gun after all, and the explosive power of * is not large, so the destructive power of the Junior Team position is still relatively limited. Mortar artillery is different, it is mainly based on curved shooting, and the fighting style of falling from the sky cannot carry any position. Moreover, the caliber of the mortar is much larger, and the power of * is more objective. As soon as these large-caliber shells fell, the cadet team immediately paid more than a dozen casualties, and completely lost the ability to resist.

"Nikaido, take them away!" Kimura's leg had just been punctured by flying sawdust.

"Captain!" The youth team is fighting a battle to the death, how can they retreat! Nikaido also came with a mortal heart, and asked him to retreat, but he couldn't accept it.

"Let's go! They're still kids! Come on! Kimura didn't have time to explain more, but kept asking Nikaido to leave with the boys in a hurry. Nikaido couldn't bear to let these children die here without any meaning, so he could only order the children to retreat with weapons, while Kimura and a dozen or so feudal priests continued to hold on to the position.

"Manchurian weapons are good! If we already have such a good weapon, we should have entered Cheung Chau, how could we let the thieves trample on our land! Alas! After more than 20 shells landed on the humble position at the entrance of the Great Altar, the gunfire of the counterattack finally stopped, and Kimura, who had lost an arm, was still holding his rifle, but he could no longer fight back. The feudal lords who stayed with Kimura had long since died, and Kimura was the only one left here, and he didn't know who he was talking about with this complaint.

Kimura jammed the rifle in his neck, pulled out his ribs, and plunged the blade into his abdomen. Samurai must not mess with the enemy and die for dogs, and Kimura uses the privilege of a samurai, such as seppuku, to understand himself. In just a few dozen minutes, he had already killed at least five enemy soldiers, and he didn't lose anything.

The Tosa soldiers who entered Nihonmatsu thought that they were just here to accept it, but they ended up fighting two battles that were neither soft nor hard, and more than 50 people were killed and wounded, so they were really angry. Don't say that it's Itagaki who retreats and is distressed, but the commander-in-chief, Izchi Masaji, is also secretly miscalculated, never expected that the little Nihonmatsu was actually a hard bone.

The entrance to the big altar also changed hands, and Erhonsong's defense line was equivalent to the collapse of the whole line. Everyone thought that what followed was the cliché of the samurai in the castle arson and the victor singing into the city, but they didn't expect that the Tosa clan soldiers who had just crossed the entrance of the Great Altar were quickly beaten out, and even the Great Altar Entrance was taken back by Nihonmatsu's youth team. Moreover, the mortars that the new government army had deployed too far in front suddenly exploded into a pile of scrap metal as if they had been executed, one by one by the horrors flying from the opposite side*. The vanguard of the squad that had just broken into was killed or wounded by more than two-thirds, and was almost wiped out by others.

Next to Kimura's corpse, Yuyuki Uesugi, dressed in samurai armor, took over the command of the boy team with more than a dozen mercenaries dressed as the same samurai. The Uesugi family is no longer a feudal clan of the Nihonmatsu Domain, and there is no need for Uesugi to fight for Nihonmatsu, but Asano Munehide's younger brother is here, and Uesugi can't ignore Asano's care for him all along. Asano was stared at and couldn't be separated, but Uesugi, who had a slightly lower status, had room to move, so he took a few henchmen, changed into the ancestral armor of his family, and sneaked into the camp of the Nihonmatsu Domain.
