Chapter 434: Attack on Inaba and Tajima

"Really... It's a pity that this big fish is a big fish..."In Tottori Castle, Hosokawa Nobumoto learned that Yoshikawa Motoharu had sent 6,000 reinforcements, and when he heard that Tottori Castle was lost, he retreated back, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

"My lord, since the Maori army has retreated, it is bound not to turn back. The family can just let go of their hands and feet, and comprehensively carry out the strategy of Inaba and Tajima. Honda Masanobu felt that this was also a good thing, and without the support of the Mori family, the Yamana family would be alone.

"Well, too, the order goes down, and the reserves are in full swing to attack Inaba and Tajima! I ask each reserve team to be responsible for an area, and I want to fight the famous mountain masters everywhere! Hosokawa Nobumoto waved his hand, and all the retainers agreed in unison.

"Kill!" Sanada Masayuki led Sakamoto to storm Tajima out of Ishishi.

"Attack!" Shima Katsutoshi led Sekiwara to attack Inaba Tokuyoshi Castle.

The other reserves also attacked the castles of Inaba and Tajima respectively, and the peasants and soldiers of the local wealthy clans could not resist the rapid Hosokawa standing reserves, and the castles were pulled out one after another, and the Hosokawa army was like a bamboo.

Soon, the Hosokawa army captured all the cities like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, and only the Ayuko Mountain Castle in front of them was left. At this time, Yamana Yutoyo in the city had not closed his eyes for three days and three nights, and he was looking at a large flag embroidered with Hosokawa Matsukasa Ling outside the city with red eyes, which was where Hosokawa Nobumoto was.

"My lord, the army has been assembled and ready to attack the city." Honda Masanobu respectfully saluted Hosokawa Nobumoto.

"Well, attack!" Hosokawa Nobumoto waved the command fan in his hand and shook his finger at the Ariko Mountain Castle in front of him.

"First team! Advance! "Yukicho Konishi led the front row of Ashigaru, holding a large wooden plank high and slowly moving forward.

"Archer prepare!" The Otagaki clan organized the defenders to defend the castle walls, and he was one of the "Four Heavenly Kings of Yamana".

"Charge!" Governor Konishi was about the same, and immediately gave the order to charge.

"Archery! Archery! The Otagaki clan ordered the bowfoot to rush towards the approaching Hosokawa army, pouring a rain of arrows.

Whoosh! Boom! Boom! The large planks blocked most of the arrows.

"Ding!" Ran to the moat, and immediately tied down the large planks, forming a temporary defensive barrier.

"Thunder Artillery Battalion! Team 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th! Advance! Rush! "Igasaki Michishun led the iron gunners and quickly rushed to the defensive position.

"Archery! Archery! "There were still double attacks on the walls, and the arrows kept shooting at the Hosokawa army.

"Ready! Shoot! At the sound of the order, the iron cannons fired in unison, because the iron cannons were only deterrent when they fired in unison, so they did not shoot arrows freely like bows and arrows.

Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!

Poof! "Uhh Pieces of lead bullets were scattered on the city, and even if they were protected by wooden planks, they could not withstand such a dense blow, and countless people were killed and wounded when they landed.

"Knock on the door! Advance! Taking advantage of the suppression of the castle, Otani Yoshitsugu led the door-breaking team, carrying a wooden box on his head, and rushed to the city gate.

"One, two, crash! One, two, crash! "Boom! Boom! Click!

"Latch! Latch! "Falling rocks! Kill the enemy who crashes on the door! "There are also various orders in the city, and the city gate here also has a gap that can fall into the water, so the Hosokawa army did not use the city gate to blast.

Whoa! The stone smashed on the wooden box, but it could not stop Hosokawa's attack.

"Damn! All ready! Prepare to destroy the enemy forces that break through the door! "Toyonobu Yagi had already organized a group of defenders to attack the Hosokawa army that had broken into the city, and he was also one of the "Four Heavenly Kings of Yamana".

"Big tube! Shoot! "Shigehide Suzuki led the big team and also joined the attack of Arikoyama Castle.

Boom! Boom! Boom! A large number of projectiles accompanied by a roar, overwhelmingly pounced on the city.

Boom! Click! Puff puff!

"Uhh The large planks could not withstand such a dense artillery fire, and were beaten to a thousand points with holes and sawdust flying, and the hidden defenders did not escape their fate, and were planted from the city with several bullets in their bodies.

Boom! Click! The gates were violently slammed open, and the Hosokawa army swarmed in.

"Shoot!" Toyonobu Yagi shouted out the order.

Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!

Poof! "Ahh Hosokawa in front of the sudden collapse fell when he ascended.

"Go back! Go back! It's a cypress-shaped tiger's mouth! Yoshitsugu Otani saw the three walls inside, as well as the projectiles ejecting from the perforation.

"Onward! Plug the firing port! Fujido Takatora led the army to burst in, using a large wooden plank as cover, and then plugged the baffle that had already been made on the shooting hole.

"What is this! Fast! Expose the firing port to me! Toyonobu Yagi also panicked, you must know that this new city uses the latest technology, and he didn't expect it to be cracked by the Hosokawa Army so easily.

"Go ahead and attack the gates!" Yoshitsugu Otani led the standing reserve to attack again.

Soon, the second gate in the tiger's mouth was also knocked open, but this time it did not rush in.

"Roasting!" Tsuda roared, only to see several pots of clay pots thrown in through the doorway.

Boom! Boom! "Uhh The violent explosion was accompanied by countless screams, and the ambush army behind the second gate was blown up.

"Oh!" The Hosokawa army then broke into it, and with the experience of Miki Castle last time, the Hosokawa army broke through one city pass after another at the minimum cost, and conquered one dangerous pass after another.

Sannomaru was taken, and so was Ninomaru, and the Hosokawa army soon approached the last stronghold: Honmaru.

"Hold on! Resist me! "Gakiya Mitsunari is guarding the gate of Honmaru, and he is a powerful minister of Yutoyo Yamana. And the Otagaki clan, Yagi Toyonobu and others in front of them were all killed in battle.

"Father! Father! "Oh, oh, in the castle tower, Yamana Yaoxi stumbled into the inner room.

"Yaoxi... Frizzy, when will I not fall into the prestige of my mountain master? "Yamana Youfeng is a little helpless, the eldest son and second son Gu Yi died early, only this son is left, and he is now old (sixty-seven), and the inheritance of the Yamana family in the future can only rely on Yaoxi.

"Father... Father! The Hosokawa army has already attacked Honmaru! It's about to be overwhelmed! Father, hurry up and think of a way! Otherwise... Otherwise, we... It's going to die! Yamana Yaoxi's face turned white with fright, and he stammered. He just turned eighteen this year, because of the early death of his two elder brothers, he has been spoiled since he was a child, and he belongs to the kind of master who is held in the palm of his hand for fear of falling, and holding it in his mouth for fear of melting.

"Hey..."Yutoyo Yamana lamented, originally he was still thinking of escaping from here and going to join the Maori family in order to make a comeback. But... I'm afraid I don't have a few years to live, Yaoxi, this kid is afraid that is... It's hard to take on a big job.

"Father, what do you think about it! Let's think of a way! I don't want to die yet! Woooooo Yamana Yaoxi thought that his father was suffering from Alzheimer's again, and he was so anxious that he cried...
