Takahashi Castle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Takahashi Xingguo looked at the two ashigaru who were getting closer and closer to Takahashi City, and his expression was solemn.

"Xingjia, it's really my father's fault this time, but I regret that I couldn't see through the true faces of the two villains, Tanaka Qinyoshi and Matsumoto Juntaka, as soon as possible. Even the ashigaru who has affected you and my family has suffered with me."

"Father, it's useless to say these things now, for the sake of now, either fight bravely to kill the enemy, or break through as soon as possible. I also asked my father to make a choice," said Takahashi Koki.

After listening to Takahashi Xingjia's words, Takahashi Xingguo looked up at the figure of Tanaka Qinyoshi and others under the castle, and said through gritted teeth, "You can't give Takahashi Castle to these two villains for nothing."

"My Takahashi family has lived here for generations. The name of the Takahashi family cannot be insulted by the two of you! Gaoqiao Xingguo said resolutely: "Xingjia, my father has decided to live and die with Gaoqiao City, what about you?" ”

Seeing that Takahashi Xingguo had said everything to this, Takahashi Xingjia hurriedly said: "Father, there are no cowards in our Takahashi family. Don't let the waste of the Tanaka family and the Matsumoto family see the joke. The child and his father worked together to defend the last dignity of the Takahashi family. ”

"Well, it's worthy of being my son of Takahashi Kokoku. Have ambition and kill the enemy with your father. Takahashi Xingguo shouted with relief.

After a while, the ashigaru of the two families gradually climbed the castle wall and fought with the Ashigaru of the Takahashi family.

"Killing" Takahashi Xingguo danced the sword in his hand, harvesting the lives of the Tanaka family and the Matsumoto family Ashigaru one after another. The Takahashi Xingjia on the side followed the figure of Takahashi Xingguo, and the two fathers and sons were like head harvesters, shocking the audience.

But individual martial arts can only play a small role in such a joint battle. For the whole situation, the balance of victory is still tilted like the combined army of Tanaka and Matsumoto.

It's obvious. The two coalition forces were first superior in momentum, and most of the Takahashi family were peasant soldiers. Ashigaru, who dared to fight, was almost dead as early as when Shimonoyama blocked the Tsugawa family. On the other hand, the combined forces attacked the Togo family, which had low combat effectiveness, and the losses were relatively small.

In the case of dominance, the two ashigaru only two or three charges suppressed the castle tower in one fell swoop.

"Father, I can't hold it anymore." Takahashi Xingjia said to Takahashi Xingguo, who was panting beside him.

"Yes, the castle is about to fall," Takahashi said, pulling a sword out of the body of a Matsumoto family ashigaru beneath him. "Xingjia, do you regret it? Follow me to death. ”

"I don't regret it, it's enough to kill so many people before I die," Takahashi Xingjia licked the blood from his mouth and pretended to be calm.

......

"The Takahashi family is almost unbearable, Zhenbei, order the charge." Soji Tsugawa looked at the increasing number of combined forces ashigaru pouring into Takahashi Castle, and said to Kuroda Iekane, who had long been unable to hold back beside him.

"Hi" Kuroda Iekan is waiting for Soji's words. After speaking, he immediately turned over and got on his horse, drew his sword and shouted: "The whole army is attacking, and the target is the enemy general." Rush."

In an instant, countless (Reader:...... Countless, I almost believed in this evil 233) Ashgaru of the Tsugawa family.

"Kill" and "rush" sounded behind him with bursts of shouts of killing. Tanaka and the others, who were talking excitedly outside the city, were stunned.

"Lord, the Tsugawa family has been killed from behind" A Tanaka family's flag was the first to react and said loudly to Tanaka Qinyoshi.

"Tsu... Tsugawa family! Tanaka Qinyoshi quickly came to his senses. Then another voice rang out. "It's not good, it's going to suffer."

Sure enough, the two ashigaru who had already attacked Takahashi Castle subconsciously looked back when they heard the shouting of killing. However, it was this time that drained the fighting spirit of the two ashigaru.

"The Tsugawa family is here! The Tsugawa family is here! "Look, the lord is in danger!" This is the voice of two ashigaru.

"Is the Tsugawa family here to rescue the family?" "Are you saved?" was Takahashi's voice.

For a while, as if they had forgotten the battle just now, the three ashigaru families on Takahashi Castle stopped attacking one after another, and just watched the Tsugawa family troops outside the city who were charging towards the main camp of the combined army.

Takahashi Xingguo's father and son both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

"Xingjia, is the Jinchuan family here to save us?" Takahashi asked.

"No, there was a big battle between our two families just now, and the Tsugawa family won't come to save us." Takahashi shook his head and said. "The Tsugawa family must have come to take revenge. Because the main family is closest to Togo Castle, the main family that attacked first happened to bump into the Tanaka family and the Matsumoto family attacking the main family, so what happened now"

"Well, it seems that the family is still inescapable," Takahashi Xingguo said helplessly.

.......

In the Tsugawa family's charging queue, the Kuroda family was at the forefront, followed by Togo Yoshisuke. Then there is Tsugawa Soji, who is surrounded by Kimoto Yoshikei and other flags.

The Tsugawa family, which has long been different from what it used to be, now in addition to the main samurai generals, almost everyone in the flag of Tsugawa Soji has a horse, but some people do not use war horses. After all, war horses are still a scarce resource for the Tsugawa family.

But even so, the cavalry team of about 20 people has been undoubtedly mentally tortured for the main formation of the combined army at this moment.

If you don't escape, you will die, and if you escape, you can't escape other people's horsebacks.

In this way, in an instant, the vanguard of the Tsugawa family, that is, more than 20 people on horseback, had rushed into the main camp of the combined army.

The two Ashigaru Daishi had already boarded Takahashi Castle, and there were only more than 10 flag guards in the main camp. For the Tsugawa family's troops, it is undoubtedly a piece of cake.

Tanaka Qinyoshi shouted loudly, "Matsumoto-sama, you can't escape, it's better to fight to the death." ”

After speaking, Tanaka Qinyoshi didn't see Matsumoto Quangao's answer, and hurriedly turned around. I saw that Matsumoto Juntaka had quietly mounted a horse.

"Matsumoto-sama, what do you mean by that?" Suddenly, Tanaka Fukichi, who had figured it out, shouted, "That's my horse."

"Haha, Tanaka-sama. You can stay and help me resist the Tsugawa family's forces. I'll go back to my base first, call for reinforcements, and then come to save you," Matsumoto Quangao patted his horse and left. By the way, he also drove away Tanaka Qinyoshi's mount.

"Bastard! Bastard"

"Kill" Togo Yoshisuke rode on his horse, slashed a knife through the neck of an ashigaru, and continued to charge forward. The revenge of the Dongxiang family must be avenged by himself.

In an instant, with the fall of the last banner, only Tanaka Qinyoshi, who was staring blankly and in a daze, was left in the main camp of the combined army. Not long after, the Tsugawa family was pressed to the ground by the rushing over.

Togo Yoshisuke resisted the thought of rushing over and hacking Tanaka to death, and said to Tsugawa Soji who was rushing behind him, "Your Highness, Matsumoto Quan Gao rode away on horseback. Only Tanaka Jinyoshi is alone. ”

Soji Tsugawa understood Togo Yoshiyu's thoughts and said, "Tanaka Qinyoshi, you can handle it yourself, I will go to Takahashi Castle to persuade the Takahashi family and the remaining ashigaru of the combined army." ”

"Hi," Togo Yoshiyu said excitedly.

Soji Tsugawa took Yoshikei Komura and others and rode to the outside of Takahashi Castle.

"Listen, people in the city! I am the head of the Tsugawa family, Tsugawa Jiro Soji, Matsumoto Juntaka has fled, and Tanaka Qinyoshi has also been captured. Don't hurry up and surrender? ”

Things outside the castle happened so quickly that inside the castle, whether it was Ashigaru on the side of the Coalition Army or Ashigaru on the Takahashi family, they were all standing in place, at a loss.

As Tsugawa Soji's shout sounded, the Tanaka family's Ashigaru immediately laid down his weapon, and then the Matsumoto family's Ashigaru also gave up resistance. There's no way, the head of the two families and the general in chief, one escaped and the other was captured, what else can he do if he doesn't surrender?

But the Ashigaru of the Takahashi family hesitated, and looked at Takahashi Xingguo's father and son.

Soji Tsugawa saw that the combined army Ashigaru had laid down his arms, and only the Takahashi family had not. He immediately said: "Lord Takahashi, in the battle of the Wild Mountain, His Royal Highness is very grateful for the bravery and courage of the Lord. Therefore, I don't want to hurt the harmony of the two families again. Now that the situation has reached this point, why don't you open the city gate and surrender to your family? Your previous grievances with the Dongxiang family and the family have been written off. At that time, the Takahashi family will still be in charge of the old collar."

After listening to Tsugawa Soji's words, Takahashi Xingjia said to Takahashi Xingguo: "Father, the Tsugawa family is strong and the main family is weak. Previously, the main family was also deceived by Tanaka and Qinyoshi to participate in the attack on the Togo family. Now that the two families have betrayed us, this family is not considered to be on the side of the Coalition Army. Why don't you open the city gate and join the Tsugawa family? ”

"This...."

Seeing that Takahashi Xingguo was still hesitating, Takahashi Xingjia continued, "Father, the Tsugawa family has risen now, why not join the command, maybe in the future, the family will be stronger than now."

"That's it. Let's open the door," Takahashi Xingguo said unwillingly. Opening the castle gate meant that the independent Takahashi family would later be part of the Tsugawa family. It's a tough choice.

Seeing that the gate of Takahashi City was opened, Tsugawa Soji nodded with satisfaction and shouted at the troops behind him: "Enter the city!" ”

After speaking, the Tsugawa family's ashigaru walked into Takahashi Castle one after another.
