Chapter 563: Three Days (Page 1/1)

Edo Castle, the headquarters of the Tokugawa shogunate, trembled under the butcher's knives of the Choko army, especially the soldiers of the 3,000 death brigade that had entered the castle.

They didn't mean to show mercy to their subordinates at all, but they were much more ruthless than the Changxing army.

As long as they let them bump into the Japanese people, regardless of men, women, old and young, they will go up with a knife, and they will be cut down first. Everywhere they passed, corpses were strewn with blood, and even the sailors involved in the solution were unwilling to follow behind the death brigade, and each looked for a target.

Takanokami hung his arms around sackcloth in front of his chest as he stood on the north gate and scanned the sacred place in the hearts of their samurai. Once upon a time, he was also one of the fanatical samurai, hoping to join the Tokugawa family and serve the main family.

But now everything is different, and the current strength of the main family is definitely above the shogunate, and it will even surpass the entire Wa kingdom in the future. He was able to fight under such a master's house, and Takano Kaichi felt sincerely proud.

The capture of Tokugawa Tadanaga left the shogunate of Edo Castle in a state of being left in a state of fragmentation, and they were unable to resist the attack of the red-eyed soldiers of the Death Brigade and the Choko Army, as well as the sailors.

Some of the city's well-guarded nobles fled outside the city, not caring about their family's finances in order to escape for their lives.

The north and south gates were breached by the Changxing army, and the east and west gates became the hope for the Japanese people to escape. A large number of Japanese began to gather at these two gates, and they all crowded around the gates.

At this time, the Japanese people, who were frightened by the killing, lost their former dignity and wanted to escape from the city as soon as possible. There was not a single crack in the narrow city gate, and the voices of adults shouting and children crying were so close that I couldn't hear the number at all.

Finally, under the fear, all kinds of negative emotions broke out. I don't know who made the first move, and the screams among the Japanese people from the very beginning turned into a melee in the blink of an eye.

The samurai Ashigaru who fled here turned his weapons on the civilians, who fought desperately to survive.

In an instant, it became a battlefield, and all the people in the battle turned into wild beasts. Instinctively, they swung their weapons and slashed at everyone in front of them.

The people who were stimulated by the blood were even more crazy, they didn't care who the person in front of them was, as long as they dared to stand in front of them, they would swing their knives and cut over. The fierce fighting was even more ferocious than on the battlefield, and the ground at the city gate was gradually stained red with blood.

Some of the Japanese who still kept their senses had to wield their weapons to protect themselves, and anyone who wanted to leave the city had to go through a fierce fight.

Gradually, the gates of the city were blocked by layers of corpses, and no one could escape from here. Having killed all of their opponents, the Japanese turned their attention to the surrounding civilians and participated in the killing of ordinary civilians.

The chaotic Edo Castle is no longer as prosperous as it once was, and purgatory-like scenes can be seen everywhere. The killing continued into the night, and the screams and wails of Edo Castle never stopped.

Zhang Dou could hear the sound coming from the city on the battleship, and he tried not to think about the tragic situation in the city. He kept telling himself that these were all little devils who deserved it. They deserve such retribution, and they cannot be treated with any mercy.

……

In the camp of the Shogunate Coalition on Kyushu Island, Tokugawa Iemitsu looked at the general kneeling in front of him with a gloomy face. This is the third day that he has come to Jiuzhou Island, and he still has not broken through the defenses of the Shimazu family in Satsuma.

Originally, I thought that the Shimazu family had experienced a series of battles, and it was already the end of the crossbow. As long as his army arrives, it will definitely sweep across Jiuzhou Island and eliminate Satsuma.

But now he was blocked by Samosa's less than 30,000 troops, and not only did he fail to make progress in the attack for two consecutive days, but also lost 5,000 troops, which did not make Tokugawa Iemitsu angry.

Tokugawa Iemitsu, who was sitting on the throne, seemed to see that the entire Wa Kingdom was laughing at his incompetence as a great general, and who else would obey him as a great general in the future.

He glanced at the generals who were kneeling on the ground for a while with a cold gaze, and said coldly: "Tomorrow! Tomorrow is the deadline, and if you can't defeat Samosa, you can cut your stomach! Leaving a cold word, Tokugawa Iemitsu hurriedly went back to rest.

Lying on the collapse, he couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, and his mind kept thinking about tomorrow's war. If you really can't repel Samosa, do you really have to let those generals seppuku?

……

Tsunakayo, the island of Satsuma, was also uncomfortable, with only half the strength of the shogunate. And they are all tired soldiers who have not repaired after a series of battles, and today's battle has made him use all his strength to withstand the attack of the shogunate coalition army. If the shogunate is still attacking so frantically tomorrow, what will they do to resist it?

He set his sights on Ma Bao's body, and the main family Zhang Dou has become the last straw for Samosa. No matter what, he couldn't throw it away, he squeezed out a smile and bowed and said, "Master Ma! Where are the reinforcements from the Lord's house? The subordinates really can't hold on! Please let the lord send troops as soon as possible! In the end, Shimazu Nakayoko's tone was full of tears.

Ma Bao was not as anxious as Shimazu Zhongheng, he clenched his fists lightly and said: "The head of the Shimazu family doesn't need to worry, Master Hou has already made a move." Within three days, the shogunate Tokugawa Iemitsu will definitely withdraw his troops. If you hold on for the last three days, everything will be clear! ”

Hearing that he would hold on for another three days, Shimazu Chuyoko suffered continuously. The way it is now, it will be difficult to persist for a day. But Ma Bao had already given a deadline, and he could only grit his teeth.

If you really can't send that team up, it can drag on for a day. Shimazu was secretly determined to survive the three days at night no matter what.

The next day, the two sides fought against each other in the wilderness, and both sides had already fought each other many times, and there was no temptation at all, and they came up to attack with all their might.

Samoba's mid-lane musketeers were standard three-stage shots, and their arquebuses had a range almost equal to that of the shogunate's archers. There were casualties on both sides in the shooting, and the ashigaru of the two flanks was fighting in one place.

Tokugawa Iemitsu was watching the battle from the rear, and his brows were furrowed from the moment the battle began. The power of the iron cannon in Samoba's hand was far beyond his imagination, and it was not inferior to the arquebus of the Xiyi people, where did they get so many iron cannons?

After looking at it for a while, he realized that he could not defeat the soldiers of Samoa for a while, and Tokugawa Iemitsu said to the cavalry generals beside him, "Take your cavalry up!" Be sure to crush the opponent's iron gunners and prove your bravery with the steel knife in your hand! ”

The cavalry general ordered him to prepare, and at the same time Shimazu Nakayoko was speaking to a thousand samurai wearing cuirasses and visored helmets.

These people are the family funds that he spent nearly a year saving, and they are the strength he prepared for the hegemony of the Japanese country.
