Chapter 657: Iron-Blooded Loyal Soul
Yamauchi Kazutomi could feel it completely that these three hundred monks were fighting on the premise of preserving their strength, which made him really a little confused.
It stands to reason that if the enemy captures Masuda Castle, then not only can he successfully cut off the connection between Kojima Castle and Takayama Castle, but once Masuda Castle is taken by him, it is equivalent to opening the door to attack his own territory, so it stands to reason that these 300 monks will inevitably launch a fierce attack.
But the battle had been going on for nearly half an hour, and the total number of casualties on both sides was less than 50, which proved that the enemy was fighting passively.
Although Yamauchi Kazutoyo doesn't understand what the other party will do this, but this is very beneficial to the family, what is his task, in addition to holding Yitian City, there is also not to let this monk go north to aid the Jiangma family, the longer they drag here, then the greater the hope of the family to win, as long as the lord leads the army and defeats the Takeda army, then he can send the army north, and the monk in front of him will be wiped out.
Before he could be happy, he saw a lot of dust rise in the east, and as the smoke and dust got closer and closer, he saw thousands of ninjas dressed in black and wearing ninja scarves rushing towards the city.
Yamauchi Yifeng couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this, this ninja army came from the east, and it can be seen from the armor on his body that they are not his own ninja army, so he doesn't need to ask to know that these thousands of ninja must be enemy reinforcements, he doesn't have time to think about where this ninja army came from, he only knows that the time has come for him to be loyal to the Takayama family.
When that ninja army was still hundreds of meters away from the city. I saw Yamauchi Kazutoyo pointing forward with the spear in his hand and said loudly: "I am determined to fight to the death with the enemy, who is willing to help me!" ”
"I'm willing to fight to the death with my lord!" Since Yamauchi Kazutoyo was guarding Masuda Castle as the first line, the clan did not arrange for new soldiers to be here, so no one flinched.
Since the day they became the Takayama family, they have used the best equipment to take the Horoku, which is twice as strong as the various powers. It was already clear that this day would come sooner or later, so from then on, they were all ready to die. And when the moment came, no one flinched, from their sonorous voices. With a firm gaze, it can be seen.
"Good! What I am waiting for is your words, the lord will not wait for me, today is the time for me to serve the lord, kill me! ”
After Yamauchi Kazutoyo finished speaking, he was about to go to battle in person, but he saw two of the two leaders of the new team quickly step forward, stopped him and said, "Lord Yamauchi, we can all die in battle, but adults can't, my lord." Leave it to us here, it's too late to leave through the back door. ”
"Fart! I'm the leader of the new group, how can the enemy run for his life now, you two bastards, get out of the way for me! ”
And the two team leaders not only didn't move, but took advantage of Yamauchi Kazutoyo not paying attention. One of them grabbed one of his arms, so that he couldn't move, only to hear one of them say: "Lord Commander, our death is small, but if the Lord dies, it will undoubtedly be a huge loss for the family." That's why we won't let the adults get hurt in any way. ”
"You are going to make me forever infamous for being unfaithful and unjust, and you will not let go!" Kazutoyo Yamauchi tried to break free as he spoke, and the two team leaders immediately felt a little struggling.
"Come on, escort Yamanuchi-sama out of the city, quick!" When the words fell, I saw the nearest two groups of twenty ashigaru immediately ran over, now the situation is urgent, they don't care about the rudeness, some hold their arms, some raise their feet, and directly lift Yamauchi Kazutoyo up, even if he has the ability, it is impossible to break free from these ashigaru hands. …,
"You ...... Let me go, my brothers are all killed in battle, and I can live alone again! As he spoke, tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.
Now these ashigaru won't follow his orders, they just want the Commander to leave, so no one stops.
"Your Excellency, I'm afraid the lord doesn't know the situation here, if the lord dies, who will report to the lord. Who will avenge the enemies of subordinates, all this depends on the adults. ”
After speaking, I heard the group leader say to the twenty new group members: "You must send Lord Yamauchi safely to the lord's office, go quickly!" After the two group leaders were yelling and struggling to be carried away, they began to fight with the enemy forces outside the city.
Masuda Castle is an important town in Hida country, the scale of the city is not small, just now the monks only launched an attack from one side, and they can also be defended, but now the enemy's 2,000 reinforcements have arrived, and they are attacking from both sides, so that the remaining defenders are not enough, so when the ninja army attacked, the north wall was lost in a blink of an eye.
Now that the enemy has invaded the city, there is no use in defending the city wall, and the road to the castle tower has also been cut off by the enemy ninjas, and now the only thing they can do is to fight to the death with the enemy, under the leadership of several group leaders, more than 200 troops in the city are so strong that the city wall frantically rushes towards the wind demon ninja army, launching a suicidal attack.
Those ninja troops who have already entered the city have relaxed from the moment they entered the city, just counting the city, the number of their own troops is several times that of the enemy, so they are all artificial, the mountain army must not dare to fight again, he will definitely seize the door and be completely annihilated by the army outside the city, this is the right reason.
It is true that the Takayama army went down to the city wall, but they did not rush to the city gate, but went straight to themselves, such a desperate way of fighting, they encountered it for the first time, although they are also ninjas, but if compared with the ninja army of the Takayama family, they are far behind, after all, their main training in peacetime is ninjutsu, but it is more important than the combat ability of each person, and they are not too good at coordination.
Such an abnormal attack by the new group suddenly made them confused, but after all, they were several times larger than the new group, and after only a short period of chaos, they recovered, and after a wave of impact on more than two hundred new groups, they had successfully tore a hole in the ranks of the ninja army and rushed to the back of the ninja army.
If they didn't stop at this time and continue to move forward, then they could escape through the back door, but they didn't do so, when they just broke through the ninja army, there were only more than 150 people left, and none of the new writers of the ashigaru team hesitated, they all turned around and faced the enemy, they knew that if they ran away, then maybe the enemy would catch up with the commander, so who else would report the situation here to the lord, so they had to use one death to drag the enemy.
And the ninjas led by Kojiro in the Wind Devil were shocked by the other party's approach, even if they were enemies, then they were definitely enemies worthy of their admiration, knowing that if they continued to fight, there was only a dead end, but none of them escaped, and it was the first time they had seen such an enemy, so they were all stunned.
They didn't move, but the new team didn't have the idea of stopping the attack, and now every time they killed one more enemy, then the family would be more relaxed.
"Fight the enemy!"
"Serving the Lord, serving the Gaoshan family is at this moment."
"Rush!"
"......" each new writer kept shouting and rushed towards the enemy, the expression on their faces had become hideous and terrifying, and with the blood-stained armor on their bodies, although there were only more than a hundred people, the murderous aura emanating from them completely overshadowed the enemy several times over, and they were the masters of the battlefield at this moment. …,
But this time the ninja army was already prepared, and although the new ashigaru broke through the enemy team again, when they rushed through, there were only more than thirty people left, and most of these thirty people were also covered with scars.
They couldn't help but look at their comrades-in-arms around them, there was no fear in their eyes, and some were just determined to die.
And when they took a breath, they saw the only surviving foothead, pointing forward with the childish knife in his hand, and roaring hoarsely: "The new team listens to the order, the target is the enemy in front of it, assault!" After saying that, he took the lead in rushing towards the enemy.
More than thirty ashigaru, shouting and following closely behind, launched the last charge against the enemy.
After this charge, the new group was left without a lifetime, and their crazy attack also made the enemy pay a heavy price, just in this short time of a pillar of incense, they were hacked to death and wounded more than 500 people, in such a situation, to be able to do such a degree, I have to say that this is a complete miracle.
Although they have fallen, the brilliant achievements of the new writing group will always remain in the hearts of the world, and the loyal banner of the new writing group will also become a terrifying conjuring flag!
At this time, the monks and soldiers of Kokubunji Temple and the remaining ninjas had already entered the city, although they did not see the battle with their own eyes, but from the corpses all over the ground, they could still guess the fierceness of the battle, and none of the enemies died with their backs to the enemy, which made everyone present silent.
After a while, Kojiro of the Wind Demon said, "Come on, bury these warriors." ”
However, the abbot of Kokubunji Temple said: "Kojiro, we still have an aid mission, and we can't delay it here for a long time. ”
Although Kojiro's face was obscured by the Shinobi helmet, when he turned his head, the abbot of Kokubunji still felt a chill.
"If the master wants to go, go directly, the affairs of the ninja army are not within the jurisdiction of the master." After saying that, he didn't pay attention to it at all, but found a piece of wood, sat on the flat ground, and carved something intently.
Guofenji Fang Zhan didn't bother to say more, anyway, as long as his task was completed, what did it matter to him whether these ninja soldiers were dead or alive, so he only heard him snort, and immediately led his monks out of the city and headed towards Kojima City.
