Chapter 615: Battle of Atsu-Shiga (3)
"Whoa!" The defenders of the city cheered, and they inflicted heavy losses on the enemy. The "Golden Juice" thing is so easy to use, and it's so easy to make, as long as there are people, there is.
"Damn!" Tokugawa Ieyasu gritted his teeth with hatred, looking at Hiraiwa Qinyoshi who was carried down from him, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive. This is a strong supporter of his Tokugawa family, and once it is lost, the balance of power in the family will be tilted in favor of Matsudaira Nobuyasu.
"Oh? I didn't expect the enemy to use the gold juice as well, which is a bit difficult to do. "Smart Pill frowned, once he encounters this kind of weapon to defend the city, it usually depends on people. Because of the division of troops on their own side, although they claimed to have 200,000 troops, in fact, there were only 40,000 or 50,000 troops engaged in frontal combat, which was only slightly more than the defenders.
"Lord, why don't you use the collapse of the country?" Asai Motomasa suggested on the side that he had been by Hosokawa Nobumoto's side since he was a child, and he had been trained by heavy training, taught by word and deed, and participated in various military conferences, and grew into a samurai with both civil and military skills.
"Hmm... So early? I thought it would be used in Bentenzan Castle. "Clever Pill is a little reluctant to use this killer feature.
The collapse of the Hosokawa family is different from the kind of collapse imported by the Otomo family, but the field gun developed by Inatomi Yunao based on the Franc cannon. The caliber and shape are similar to those of the Franc cannon, and with the addition of wheel devices required for land warfare, there are currently only eight guns in total. For this battle, all of them were brought.
"My lord, the reason why the main hall sent Master Inatoyu to you must also have this consideration, and the sharp weapon should be used on the blade." Motomasa Asai is also very politically sensitive, and he can be regarded as a proud disciple of Honda Masanobu.
"Well, good. Order Inatomi Yunao to shell Atsu Shiga Mountain Castle! Clever Pill nodded, being good is the essence of what he has learned over the years.
"Yes! Order Inatomi Yunao to shell Atsu Shiga Mountain Castle! "Asai Motomasa ordered the low leader, and immediately ordered to the herald on the side.
Whining... The horn of the order sounded, and the herald gave the order to Inatomi.
"Hahaha! It's finally here! Yunao Inatomi was excited, this was his first appearance in the battle of the Hosokawa family, bringing his proud work "National Collapse". I thought it would be useless today, but I didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon.
"I'll push the collapse of the country up! Four gates aim at the enemy walls! Four doors for me to aim at the big hand door! "Inatomi Yunao's reserve can be said to be the first batch of artillery in Japan, and the artillery is not fought casually, but also needs tactical arrangements to select priority and key targets.
Grunt... Bang Dang! The thousand-pound national collapse was pushed out one by one by the Daofu Iron Artillery Team, with standard spacing and strict operating procedures, aiming at their respective targets according to the order.
"Stand back! Back off! "Sakai Tadaji led the troops to retreat from Otemon and returned to the defensive position for cover, and the vanguard had already received orders from the rear.
"Huh? Are they ready to withdraw? Get ready! When they retreat, aim and fight! Kiyoaki Tamura saw the anomaly of the Tokugawa team and ordered the Iron Artillery Team to suspend firing and prepare to inflict heavy damage when the Tokugawa team withdrew.
Suddenly!
Boom knock! Boom knock! The violent sound was like rolling thunder, and the color of the heavens and the earth changed.
"Look! What is that! Everyone pointed in surprise to the huge black-hearted bullets in the distance, like meteorites falling, roaring and smashing towards them.
Boom! A lead bullet slammed into the city wall, like a giant punching hard, and the roar of Atsu-Shiga Mountain Castle was like a mournful sound.
"Wow!" The violent shaking made the people at the head of the city sway, and some people had an unstable center of gravity under their feet, and they fell headlong into the city.
The catastrophe had just begun, and subsequent shells were arriving.
Boom! Sigh! A cannon bombarded the city, and suddenly sawdust flew.
Boom! Boom!! Two more cannons.
"Wow!" Even people with planks flew out.
Boom! Boom! These four shells are all aimed at Otemon.
Bang Dang! Thundered! The first one shook the door suddenly, and even the top of the door behind the door was rubbing the ground, and they retreated in unison.
Call! Boom! Boom! The three cannons that followed, click! directly smashed the big hand door to pieces.
"Oh!" When the Tokugawa team, who was hiding in the defensive position, saw this scene, they immediately cheered and beat back the taunts of the Tsugawa family just now.
"Excellent! The gate was blasted open, and the shelling of Atsu Shiga Mountain Castle continued! Cover friendly attacks! Inatomi nodded with satisfaction, the effect was not bad.
"Attack!" Sakai Tadaji roared and led the reserve to rush to the broken Otemon. This city has been attacked for a long time, and its own losses are not small, so this city must be won no matter what.
"Oh!" The Tokugawa team once again made a full charge with all their might.
Tokugawa Ieyasu blackened his face and watched his army leave.
"Rush! Rush! Sakai Tadaji led the charge and led his troops to attack Otemon.
Suddenly, it turned out to be surrounded by walls on three sides! It's like an urn city.
"It's a cypress-shaped tiger's mouth! Look for the second door! Sakai Tadaji looked left and right, and soon found the gate on the right.
"There! Above! Sakai Tadaji grabbed the knife and rushed forward.
"Kill!" The Tokugawa team also enthusiastically joined in, and they attacked in a swarm.
It's not far, and it's about to arrive.
Suddenly! Lattice windows opened from the walls, and iron cannons poked out.
"Not good! There is an ambush! Sakai Tadaji was so shocked that his scalp was numb and his hairs exploded.
Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang! The iron cannons fired in unison, and a neat row of lead bullets swooped down on the Tokugawa team below.
"Protect the lord!" Seeing that the situation was not good, the samurai of the Sakai family loyally protected the lord and stood in front of Tadaji.
Poof! "Uhh Dense buckshot hit them mercilessly. Sakai Tadaji's body flickered, and he also fell to the ground together.
"Quick! Go and save Sakai-sama! Ashigaru, who survived outside the Otemon Gate, took advantage of the gap between the iron cannons and quickly rushed in and carried Sakai Tadaji out with all hands and feet.
*************
"Tadaji! Tadaji! Wake up! Tokugawa Ieyasu looked at Tadaji Sakai, who was carried out, and hurriedly rushed forward to check on his injuries.
"Great opportunity! Aim for Tokugawa Ieyasu! Tamura Kiyoaki took a look at Tokugawa Ieyasu as he was exposed, and happily ordered the iron cannon to aim.
"Cover the retreat of friendly forces! Fire! When Tsuda saw it, he immediately raised his gun and fired to cover the evacuation of the Tokugawa team.
Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang! The Tsuda Iron Artillery Corps fired again and again!
Boom! Boom! It just so happened that the second round of shelling also arrived, and the defenders panicked, and Tokugawa Ieyasu led the Tokugawa team to retreat...
