Chapter 612: All-Out War

Towering mountains, magnificent fortified castles.

In stark contrast, the continuous barracks arrow towers, the dense banner soldiers!

The Hosokawa army officially entered the Fukushima Basin, kicking off the decisive battle with the Tsugawa family.

Knock knock... Knock knock... The drums of war are ringing! The Hosokawa army lined up in a neat formation and came to the gate of Atsushiga Mountain Castle.

I saw that there was a two-layer defense system on the city gate, the first layer was the city wall itself, relying on a small half of the mountain as the foundation of the city wall, there were narrow rooms (perforations) on the wall, and a row of iron cannons stood behind it. The second level is behind the castle walls, and a second-story wooden platform is erected, on which stands bow-foot-light and spear-footlight, all of which are protected by large wooden planks.

The gate is a thickened iron-locked wooden door, which is a concave cypress-shaped tiger mouth, which can resist the enemy on three sides, forming the second line of defense of the gate, similar to the urn city. Behind the second gate is Sannomaru, which is directly connected to the winding mountain road, layer by layer of defense, layer by layer of cards.

The Tsugawa family dispatched 50,000 standing troops this time, and 50,000 garrisons were transferred from various places, for a total of 100,000 people! This is already the maximum number of troops dispatched by the Tsugawa family. Of course, these people were not peasant soldiers, they were all trained by the standing system.

Moreover, almost all the direct ministers and subordinate nobles in his territory participated in the war, so it can be seen that in this battle, the Tsugawa family is also desperate, the winner is the king, and the loser is the coward!

The general garrison of Atsu Shiga Yamajo is Miki Naogo, who is one of the most trusted people of the Tsugawa family, a general, a general of the Blue Guard, and a temporary commander of the White Guard.

The chief commander of the Shimo-Nishiki checkpoint is Yoshikage Omura, who is the elder of the Tsugawa family, the head of the Tsunagawa family, the Imperial Nation, and the temporary commander of Huang Bei (the original commander of the Yoshikawa Hiroke family, died in the battle with Taniguchi of the Hosokawa family).

The Hosokawa Army, which was preparing to attack Atsu-Shiga Yamajo, was also divided into three armies, the front, the middle, and the rear, with the former army commander being Hosokawa Hidemaru, Matsunaga Hide, Miyoshi Yoshitsugu, Hosokawa Miracle Matsuma, Kaga Bi Maeda Toshiie, Nagahama Bi Akai Naomasa, Kiyoshu Bi Yamauchi Kazutoyo, Tokubun Bi Takigawa Interests, Echizen Bi Mikoda Masaharu, Tajima Bi Konishi Yukinaga, and Mikawa Bi Matsudaira Nobuyasu.

Asai Manfukumaru also took this opportunity to serve in front of the battle, and Hosokawa Nobumoto personally served as his house hat pro, giving him the word "Yuan", plus the word "Masa" of the Asai family, and named it Asai Motomasa.

Naturally, Motomasa Asai inherited the name of the Asai family, and was given the title of Kita Omi Kotani Castle and Yamanchi Chiyuki of Asai County, and let him join Hosokawa Smart Maru, becoming the first retainer of Smart Maru.

In addition, Hosokawa Castle Huimaru is also in the big tent of the Chinese army, and he is currently inherited to Kitada Gukyo, and once he becomes an adult, he can inherit the Kitada family. Chenghui Pill is only promised by nature, because he has lacked father's love since he was a child, but he is humble and polite, although he does not have the ability to rule the world, but he can still control a country.

The rear army mainly relied on the camp defense line to defend and avoid the army from being flanked.

"My lord, everything is ready, and you can order the siege of the city." Motomasa Asai followed Hosokawa Senmaru's side, and the two of them were also righteous brothers.

"Well, attack!" With a wave of the command fan in his hand, Senkai Maru gave the order for a general attack.

"Shoot!" Kiyoaki Tamura saw the approaching Tokugawa team and ordered loudly.

Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang! A row of green smoke rose and the Tsugawa iron cannon rang out in unison.

Bang Bang Bang! The projectile hit the rattan planks in the first row, and immediately sawdust flew away!

Poof, "Uhhh "There were still a few projectiles that passed through the gaps between the rattan planks and hit Tokugawa Ashigaru in the back, and several people were immediately shot and fell to the ground.

"Rush! Rush! Rush! "Tokugawa Ieyasu's heart is dripping blood, this is his own elite.

"Archery!" At the head of the castle, Iwaki Shigetaka saw that he had entered the firing range, and immediately waved the sword in his hand and ordered loudly.

Whoosh! Whoosh! A large number of arrows rose into the air.

"Raise your shield!" Tokugawa Ieyasu's eyes were red, and he was afraid that he would lose a lot of elites in this round of arrow rain.

Puff puff! "Uhhhh Sure enough, the thrown arrows crossed the rattan planks and poured directly into the crowd, and Tokugawa Ashigaru fell in pieces...
