Chapter 757: The Battle of Ohanazawa (4)
To the east of Ohanazawa Castle is the residence of the Nagaoka family, the Nagashizu family, and the Kumano family, with a total of more than 2,400 troops, and 1,500 of them are the troops of the Nagaoka family.
In the main camp of the Aooka family, Miyasu was sitting anxiously in the main formation, his eyes turned to the outside of the tent from time to time, waiting for something anxiously.
"Father!"
At this time, Mitsuei Kazuoka suddenly ran in from outside the tent.
"How's the battle going? Where did the Tsukawa family go? "Half an hour ago, Miyasu asked whether he could stop the Tsugawa family, but now he is asking where the Tsugawa family has hit, and obviously at this moment, Miyasu Kazuoka already knows that it is a matter of time before the Tsugawa family breaks through his own defense.
Mitsuei Kazuoka replied with a struggling face, "Father, the Tsugawa family's forces are too strong, I brought three hundred people to guard Nagaseguchi, but I was defeated by the Tsugawa family in a quarter of an hour!" ”
"Now Nagaseguchi has been breached by the Tsugawa family, and Lord Kashiwayama has also been captured by the enemy general Nagano Masaki." As he spoke, Mitsuei lowered his head helplessly.
Miyasu Kazuoka suddenly looked at Mitsuei with lost eyes, "I didn't expect Hyogo Suke to ......." halfway through his words, Miyasu Kazuoka still couldn't continue after all.
At this time, Kazuoka Manying hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but continue, "In addition, Naomitsu Naomitsu has already fled with the strength of the Nagajing family, and now only the strength of the Kumano family is left on the side of the main family. ”
"The Kumano family only has more than 400 peasant soldiers, I'm afraid that even the Tsugawa family can't stop a round of charge! For the sake of today's plan, why don't we withdraw it too? Mitsuhide Kazuoka continued.
"Damn it's so quiet, it's disgusting!" Although I never thought that the hundreds of people in Naomitsu could block the Tsugawa family, they couldn't run away directly, which was a great blow to Ashigaru's morale!
After thinking about it again, Miyasu Kazuoka hurriedly said, "It's just that Nagaseguchi has been lost, and the family can still continue to hold on." Aren't the forces of the Yanzawa family and the Iida family not far from the main family, why haven't they come to support after so long? ”
"Well, I've already sent someone to inquire about the Yanze family before. However, Takahashi Ishimi Mamoru said that Lord Yanzawa was sick and was in a coma now. Mitsuei shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.
"Sick ???" Mankang frowned and looked around, "At this time, I am sick in bed, isn't it that Yan Ze is full of weight and weak heart?" ”
"Probably not!" Mitsuei Aoka hurriedly spoke, "Yanze Manshige has always advocated attacking the Tsugawa family, and besides, the territory of the Yanze family is still under the control of the Tsugawa family, and Yanze Manzhong will definitely not do this!" ”
"Forget it, now the family can only rely on themselves!" Miyasu sighed, and then said, "Ichiro Kou and Kogiguchi after Nagase Mouth are our last line of defense, as long as we can hold these two openings, then the Tsugawa family can't do anything about us!" “
"How many troops do you have in this family now?" Miyasu Kazuoka suddenly asked.
"In addition to the 200 people who guarded the main formation, there are 600 people left who have not joined the battlefield." Mitsuei Kazuoka hurriedly replied.
"Ichiroguchi, who's in command now?"
"It's Mamoru Nagato of Akanuma!"
"I'm afraid that Akanuma Nagato will not be able to support it alone, so you immediately lead a force to support the battle in Ichiroguchi. The family personally sits in the back of the small wooden mouth, as long as they can hold the east of Ohanazawa Castle, then the Tsugawa family will not be able to surround Ohanazawa Castle, so maybe we still have a chance to live! Miyasu seemed to have made a lot of determination, looked into Mitsuei's eyes and said in a deep voice.
Mitsuei hesitated for a moment, and when his gaze collided with Miyasu's determined eyes, he could only grit his teeth and insist, "Haha! ”
After Mitsuying left the camp, a thick melancholy appeared on Miyasu's face.
"Lord, to put it mildly, the Tsugawa family is indeed not something that this family can contend with. At present, Ohanazawa Castle is being attacked by the Tsugawa family everywhere, and coupled with the unique geographical environment here, we can say that there is no way out. At this time, a samurai of the Kazuoka family came to the side of Miyasu with a worried face and said slowly.
Hearing the samurai's words, Miyasu looked back, and then said with a blank face, "Shioko, what do you mean by that?" ”
Shiogee Masashi was originally a native of Satsumi Prefecture in Dewa Province, but after the Tsugawa family defeated the Niga Ho family and settled in Niga Hojo, Shiokoshi Castle, which was adjacent to Higa Hojo, naturally became the target of the Tsugawa family.
The Shiokoshi family was only a small wealthy clan of about a thousand stones, and they could not resist even the forces of the Tsugawa family, and after being defeated by the joint forces of Takahashi Xingjia and Yamamoto Ichiro, Shiokoshi Masato could only flee to the Hazen region alone. Originally, Shiogee Masashi hoped to seek the help of Yoshizen of Dahoji Temple, and then restore the old leader.
However, he didn't expect that Daihoji Yoshizen didn't dare to fight with the Tsugawa family at all, and when he heard the intention of Shiokoshi, he didn't express his position, but just shirked it with their own reasons. Over time, Shiokoshi gradually lost confidence in the Dabaoji family, so he had to find another way.
At this time, the news came that the Tsugawa family had defeated the southern general, the Mutsu region, in one fell swoop. The strength of the Tsugawa family made Shiogama feel a deep sense of powerlessness, and at this time, Shiogama had no choice but to end his career as a ronin and came to the Kazuoka family to ask for a career.
In the end, he became a samurai of the Nakuoka family with his outstanding martial arts, and although he only had 30 kan a year, he was still very satisfied.
I thought I would spend the rest of my life in the Sakazuoka family like this, but I didn't expect that I would face up to the Tsugawa family's forces again!
"My lord." Xigao Masashi looked at Mitsuyasu Aoka, and then said, "In my opinion, it's better for my family to retreat first!" ”
"With the strength of the family, even if you can stop the Tsugawa family for a while, you still can't repel the Tsugawa family in the end. In addition to the east side of Ohanazawa Castle, the north and west sides are still under attack from the Tsugawa family. ”
"Even if the family holds the east side of Ohanazawa Castle, who dares to guarantee that the west and north sides will not be attacked by the Tsugawa family? If the west and north sides are breached, even if the family fights fiercely here, it will have no effect on the entire battle! Even in the end, the family will fall into a desperate situation, and it will be too late to regret it! Shiokoshi then said.
After listening to Shioko's words, Miyasu Kazuoka suddenly smiled, then stepped forward and patted Shiokomasa's shoulder, and said slowly, "The family finally knows why the Tsugawa family can rise in Yugo!" ”
"It's all thanks to you shit!"
"The enemy is current, don't die and kill the enemy, but grow the ambition of others here, what's the use of keeping you here!" Speaking of this, Miyasu Aoka suddenly aggravated his tone, and then in the shocked eyes of Shioko Komasa, he pulled out his knife and stabbed it directly into Shioko's chest!
When Shiokomasa fell down with unwilling and incomprehensible eyes, Miyasu Kazuoka looked around at the silent retainers in the main tent with a bloody sword in his hand, and said loudly, "Those who dare to say defeat again will be the end!" ”
