Crash! Crash!

On the outskirts of Kumano Sea, there are more than 70 large and small boats lined up, and the flag on board is Hosokawa Matsukasa Ryoshi.

"Master Toriya O, are we just waiting for them to form a formation?" Nine Ghost Yuanlong pointed to the chaotic warships on the opposite side, and there were more than sixty of them.

"Of course, this is to test our ability to fight at sea, right? Toriya Tail Master Craftsman. Murakami Motoyoshi snorted unceremoniously, and now they are both disciples of Toriya Otsuei.

"Well, no more nonsense. The opposite side has almost been assembled, and now the two of you will each lead half of the ships, break into the enemy formation in two ways, and divide the encirclement battle, there must be no mistake! "Toriya Tail is full of armor and shows the demeanor of a general.

"Yes!"

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Hurry up! Hurry up! The ships over there are a little closer, how can they support each other so far away! ”

On the other hand, the Horiuchi Navy is still adjusting the formation.

"Look! The Hosokawa Navy is dispatched! ”

I saw that the Hosokawa Navy formed a two-dragon water formation and rushed straight to the Horiuchi Water Army.

"Turn the boat sideways! Get ready to shoot your arrows! Horiuchi stood on the flagship and commanded loudly.

Naval warfare is actually very simple, nothing more than bows and arrows, arson, white blades. And the gap between the two sides in this battle is not large, the Hosokawa family has three large ships of Atakus, ten ships of Seki, and more than 60 small ships of the small morning; The Horiuchi family has two large ships of Ataku, eight ships of Seki, and more than 50 small ships of the small morning boat.

"Steady! Steady! "Arima Shizen commanded the naval army, waiting for the Hosokawa naval army to enter the firing range, he is the second son of the Horiuchi clan.

"Raise your bow!" His elder brother Horiuchi Clan Takashi is also ready, and the Horiuchi Naval Army is a tailwind, and he will definitely be able to give priority to attacking the Hosokawa Naval Army.

"Huh? The enemy turned. Just as the Hosokawa Navy was about to enter the firing range, it suddenly divided left and right, drawing a beautiful arc.

"Archery!" Although the Hosokawa navy on the opposite side of Arima Zen also turned, it was obviously a beat slower, and it should be able to be shot by an archer with superior arm strength.

"Damn! How do you the boat! Why is it a beat slower! Nine Ghost Yuan Long shouted loudly at the helm.

"Here comes the arrows! Take cover! ”

Clanging, the arrows fell on the Ataka ship in twos and threes, although there were not many of them, but there were also a few unlucky eggs who fell into the sea with arrows.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Excellent! Just keep going, cruising to the rear of the enemy's flank! "The ships led by Murakami Motoyoshi perfectly avoided the enemy's arrow rain.

"Quick! Fast! Sideways! Sideways! Keep shooting! "The three ghosts Dinglong saw that the Hosokawa naval army began to make a detour, and commanded the ships to always maintain a state of crossing.

"Oops! Why do you turn like this, can't you turn in the same direction as me! ”

It's a pity that the commanders of the Horiuchi Navy are different, some fight to the left, some to the right, and it doesn't matter if they are farther, and the closer ones are directly fighting with ships.

"Huh?" Murakami Motoyoshi obviously saw this small change in Horiuchi's water army, and with a wave of one hand, he played a strange round of sign language.

I saw that the ships under his command suddenly turned and stabbed straight into the chaotic enemy ships.

"Shoot!"

Bang bang bang!

The volley of iron cannons is not only to shoot the enemy, but also to deter the enemy.

The left flank of the Horiuchi naval army was caught off guard by this sudden change, and some of them returned fire with arrows, while others retreated into the middle of the formation.

And the nine ghosts on the right flank of the Horiuchi Navy still followed the established plan, detoured behind enemy lines, occupied the upper hand, and then carried out assault operations.

"Bastard! What's going on on the left wing, Sun Saburo, immediately go over and stabilize the situation. Horiuchi frowned and sent reinforcements to the left flank.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Well, Yuanji is good at controlling the battlefield when it is about to change, and Yuanlong can implement the pre-war deployment." Mitsuei Toriya stood on the third Ataka ship, using a telescope to observe the situation on the battlefield.

"Flag Slogan! Let the Nine Ghosts Mototaka abandon the pre-battle deployment and insert into the enemy formation from the right side to support Motoyoshi. ”

"Turn! Random arrows open the way! ”

Kuki Mototaka received the order and directed the ships to rush to the right flank of the Horiuchi Naval Army.

"Shoot! Roasting! "Motoyoshi Murakami on the left flank gave the order to attack.

Bang bang bang! Knock knock!

After a round of iron cannons, piles of clay pots were thrown out, and when they touched the hull, they exploded, and the fire snake scurried, which was a secret baking technique passed down by the Murakami family.

"Ahh Yes! Fire! ”

The Horiuchi navy on the left flank was suddenly in disarray, the ships were in flames, and a few small fire men jumped into the sea, and the Hosokawa navy took advantage of the situation to break into the enemy's main position.

"Kill! Rocket! ”

The Nine Ghosts Yuanlong on the right flank saw the fire on the opposite side, and also commanded the naval army to drive the enemy away with rockets.

"Ugh!"

"Ahh

Poof! Poof!

The Horiuchi naval forces on the right flank were shot with numerous arrows, but the ship losses were not too great.

"Damn! In the lower three ghosts Dinglong! That's it, doll, you're done! "The three ghosts climbed onto Murakami's Motoyoshi's flagship of the house, and the brutal white-knuckle battle began.

"In the Shimohokawa family, the general of the naval army Murakami Motoyoshi, since you came to send you to death, then I will fulfill you in the next!" Murakami Motoyoshi greeted him with a sword, and his martial arts were not weak.

"Drink!"

Jingling! The two of them went back and forth on the boat, and the knives were deadly, without any fancy.

"Drink! Kill! ”

The Hosokawa Navy on the right flank also entered the white-knuckle battle, and the Nine Ghosts Yuanlong stood on the flagship, nervously looking at the two people fighting on the boat.

One is Horiuchi Taka and the other is Kohama Keitaka, because the Nine Ghosts Mototaka is still young, and the work of this kind of fight is handed over to him.

"Drink!"

Kohama Keitaka struggled and cut off Horiuchi's head.

"Oh!"

Seeing the victory of his own general, the Hosokawa Navy under his command attacked the Horiuchi Navy even more frantically.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Quick! Surround this Ataka ship of the Hosokawa Naval Army! ”

On the sea, Arima Shizen led seven warships to surround an Ataka ship, which was the flagship of the military commissioner Toriya Mitsuei.

"Oh? Quite guts. Toriya Mitsuei stood on the boat and watched the enemy ship below, while Takakō Toriya drew his sword and guarded his grandfather.

"There is Ma Shishan below, please enlighten your Excellency on the ship! Above! "From just now, Arima Shishan found that there was a strange villain on this unique Ataku ship in the distance, constantly dancing. Sensitive, he believes that this must be the key to the Hosokawa Navy.

"Bah! Creak! Oh! ”

Suddenly, from the main camp of the Horiuchi Naval Army, there was a cheer that shook the sky.

Murakami Motoyoshi was covered in blood, standing on the deck panting, carrying a bloody sword in his hand, and at his feet was a headless corpse, Horiuchi was tall.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Arima-sama, you better surrender, it's over." Toriya Tail is condescending, he still admires this person very much, and he has a little ability.

"Humph! Kill you..."

"What can you do if you kill me? Your family has already lost, and it seems that Horiuchi-sama is probably already unlucky. Toriya Omitsuei interrupted Arima's words.

"Besides, even if you kill it now, it's useless, according to the military law of the Hosokawa family, if the main general dies in battle, the deputy general will take over, and the deputy general will die in battle and be replaced by the next level of samurai. You're already on the verge of death, but you, in the prime of life, have a great time in the future, isn't it a pity to die now? It's just that I don't know if there is a successor to the Horiuchi family. ”

This sentence pierced Arima's heart, and he was the only one left in the Horiuchi family.
