Chapter Seventy-Two: Breakout

As the arrows that continued to fly out of the Maeda family's formation, the few ashigaru who rushed to the front were suddenly shot to the ground. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Maeda Nariyi was tightly protected by several flags, and Toshima Shigemura and Anton Tsuki behind him were also surrounded by flags, so the first few rounds of arrows did not cause damage to the three. But there are also many flags that have been shot and planted headlong on their horses.

As the distance between the two families continued to shorten, Maeda Nariyi silently calculated the distance in his heart. When the Toshima family and the Ashigaru of the Anto family were about 50 steps away from him, Maeda Nariyi shouted loudly: "Attack! ”

"Ho" and "Rush"

The Maeda family's ashigaru suddenly rushed out and fought with the ashigaru of the two families. For a time, knives and guns exchanged guns, and the battle was very fierce.

Maeda Nariyi slashed down a Toshima family's ashigaru with a single sword, and continued to kill Toshima Shigeji and several others who were surrounded in the middle. Maeda Nariyi has a cavalry team with good combat effectiveness, numbering about 50 people, of course, these cavalry teams generally follow Maeda Nariyi as the banner of Maeda.

Originally, there were no war horses in the Maeda family's territory, and all the war horses were obtained by purchase. But in the past, the strength of the Tian family seemed to be unable to raise so many war horses. However, Maeda Nari-yi has always had a secret buried in his heart. And this secret is the fundamental reason why the Maeda family has such financial resources. It's just that this secret has been buried in Maeda Nariyi's heart for a long time. When Maeda learned the news from his father's mouth before he died, Maeda kept this secret deep in his heart.

Maeda Nariyi brandished the sword in his hand, and under the cover of Qimoto beside him, he constantly rushed towards the side of Toyoshima Shigeji and others. Even if the Toshima family and the Ashigaru of the Andong family fought hard, it still seemed a little futile in the face of the menacing Maeda Nariyi.

The Maeda family brought a total of 200 troops, including a 50-man cavalry team. And the Toshima family is only a small wealthy family with a height of about 300 stones, and it is good to be able to dispatch more than 100 peasants and soldiers, plus the defenders of the Andon family in the city are about 200 people.

Although there is not much difference in the number of people between the two sides, there is a big difference in quality. Leaving aside the well-equipped cavalry teams, the Maeda family's ashigaru wore well-made gear and weapons. The forces of the Toshima and Ando families consisted of peasant soldiers. Originally, if you defend in Yodogawa Castle, you can still have the strength to fight by relying on the danger of Yodogawa Castle. But if you go out of the city to fight, how can you be the opponent of the Maeda family?

However, after a while, the morale of the Toshima family and the Ashigaru of the Anto family on the battlefield began to waver, while the Ashigaru of the Maeda family became more and more courageous. After a while, the flag and peasant soldiers around Toshima Shigeharu and others were cut and killed. As soon as the remaining dozens of ashigaru around saw that the momentum was not right, they turned around and began to flee.

The combat effectiveness of the peasants and soldiers is like this, if they can beat it, they will mix up the heads, and if they can't beat it, they will run away.

Shigeharu Toshima was exhausted. Although the battle had only started for a short time, he had already lost his strength due to his average martial arts. If it weren't for the protection of the flag around him, maybe Toshima Shigeji would have been taken before.

Toshima Shigeji turned his head to look at the three people left around him, Toshima Shigemura and the others, with a bitter expression. As if he had made a decision, Shigeharu Toshima suddenly turned his horse's head and killed Maeda Nariyi.

Maeda Nariyi did not retreat but advanced, and also raised his sword to face the battle. Maeda Nariyi understands the forces around him, and he knows that Toshima Shigeji's martial arts are far inferior to his own, so he dares to face Toshima Shigeji, who already has the heart to die, alone.

With a "poof" sound, a figure fell off the horse. Maeda Chengyi silently put down the bloody knife in his hand, looked at the only two figures left not far away, and shouted loudly, "Kill!" ”

And the corner of Toshima Shigeji's mouth on the ground showed a smile: "Chongcun! Gotta get out! After muttering, Toshima Shigeji slowly closed his eyes. At this time, he remembered a lot of things in his mind, including his wife who had been with him for many years, his childhood playmates, and the first "daisy" picked after the Yuan service.......... (Author: Isn't that a bit too subtle to describe it?) Of course, if it is a children's shoe that understands in seconds, I can only say, "Talent!" ”)

Not long after, two ashigaru members of the Maeda family strode over with two heads in their hands, "My lord, the enemy will be the head for a long time!" ”

"Good!" Maeda Nariyi glanced at it casually, but it was this glance that surprised Maeda Nariyi, who was originally very satisfied! "It's not good, it's a fraud!"

Maeda Nariyi raised the head in his ashigaru hand and looked at it carefully, "This is not Anton Toji!" It's not! After saying that, he slammed the head in his hand to the ground!

Maeda Nariyi knows Anton Tsuki, but apparently he just saw that the head is not Anton Tsuki. Since it's not, then ........

Maeda turned his head sharply and exclaimed, "It's a plan!" ”

As if to confirm Maeda Nariyi's words, at this time, there was a sudden shout of killing from the east side of Yodogawa Castle. Maeda Nariyi said eagerly: "Quick! Everyone marches to the east of Yodogawa Castle! Fast! ”

........

At this time, to the east of Yodogawa Castle, the real Toshima Shigemura and Ando Tsuki were leading two teams of ashigaru killmen in the camp of the Tozawa family.

It turned out that while discussing how to break out of the siege, Toshima Shigemura proposed that the defenders in the city act in two groups. Since Yodogawa Castle has only two exits, one leads to the territory of the Tozawa family, and the other leads to the territory of the Ando family and the Toshima family. Therefore, Toshima Shigeharu believed that the center of gravity of the enemy's defense should be in the west.

Therefore, Toshima Shigeji proposed that he take more than 100 ashigaru pretend to break through from the west gate, and let two ashigaru who are about the same size as Ando Toki and others wear the feet of the two to paralyze the enemy army in the west. Then there are the real Andong Toki and Toshima Shigemura, who will take another part of Ashigaru out of the East Gate.

The ploy proved to be quite effective. When the battle on the western side began, the vigilance of the eastern Tozawa family was completely relaxed. Even if Heda Youzhong repeatedly advised, it couldn't help.

In this way, when Anton Tsuki and Toshima Shigemura came out of the city with Ashigaru, the Tozawa family's Ashigaru didn't have time to react at all, and was broken out from the flank by Anton Totsuki and Toshima Shigemura.

By the time the Tozawa family reacted, the enemy had already stood out.

After receiving the report, Tozawa Michimori roared angrily: "Waste! It's all a bunch of rubbish! How did Hetian Yuzhong do it? Is this all for the enemy to run? However, Tozawa Michimori didn't expect that such a result was caused by his own lack of attention.

At this time, Maeda Nariyi and others in the west also rushed to the main camp of the Tozawa family.

"Tozawa-sama, how's it going? Did the enemy break through? Maeda asked anxiously.

Tozawa Masashi hung his head and said, "Alas, it's all to blame for this season's ashigaru paralysis and carelessness, so that they let them run!" ”

"Eh, isn't there war in the west? Why are there still enemies coming out from the east? Tozawa asked in confusion.

"The west side was led by Shigeharu Toshima to break through, and he also confused him with a stand-in. Toshima Shigemura, the son of Tsuki Anton and Shigeharu Toshima, must have broken through from the East Gate," Maeda Nariyi replied unwillingly.

The duck in hand just flew like this, and I don't know what kind of incident will happen in the future!

And Toshima Shigemura, who broke out, looked at Yodogawa Castle, which was vaguely visible behind him, and silently shed tears. The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but it's not time to be sad. After a short time, Toshima Shigemura and the others walked north towards the Ou Mountains, where there was a way home.............................
