Bang bang bang! Gunfire and artillery in the inner city of Satsuma were screaming.

The Hosokawa army was originally a surprise attack, and with the huge disparity in troops, the city was lost one after another, and only one Honmaru remained.

Call... The flames soared into the sky, and the wooden bridge in front of the Honmaru Gate was scurrying and self-destructing the passage.

"Phew! It's amazing. Miyoshi Yoshiji quenched, and everyone could only be here, watching the wooden bridge being burned and burned down.

"Young master, our army is a sudden attack, there must not be much food in the city, it is better to besiege for a few days, and then you can fall into the city." Hosokawa Haruyuki looked at the Honmaru and the castle tower, which were surrounded by a moat, and instead of the low walls in front of them, they were about seven or eight meters high and had a solid castle wall with a roof.

"Hmm..."Hosokawa Motokatsu squinted his eyes and began to think in his heart.

"The lord..."Katakura Keixuna stopped talking, and looked at Hosokawa Haryuki and others on the side, many daimyo are here, and he has no right to interject.

Hosokawa Motokatsu turned his head and glanced at Katakura Keizuna, knowing that his military advisor had something to say. first smiled apologetically at Haruyuki Hosokawa, and then turned his back and said, "There is something to say, but it doesn't hurt to speak." ”

"Yes!" Katakura Keixuna saluted respectfully, and then said: "My lord, my lords, the main point of our army's battle this time is to be fast, accurate, and ruthless. ”

"Act fast, aim accurately, and attack ruthlessly!" Katakura Jinggang is thoughtful and incisive, and he is one of the most outstanding talents in the younger generation.

"So, the siege ... It's not the best tactic at the moment..."Katakura Keixuna said in the end, his voice was very small, after all, he was against the idea of the daimyo Hosokawa Haruyuki, and it would be disrespectful to say that it was serious.

"Well, what Jing Gang said is reasonable, he didn't think it through, and he was in the enemy territory, so he really shouldn't stay too long." Hosokawa Haruyuki was not unhappy, but generously agreed with Katakura Jingzuna's point of view, causing Jingzuna to salute respectfully and thank him.

"So how do you attack quickly? Although there is a river connecting Kagoshima Bay, warships cannot get in and the range is beyond the range of Western artillery. Miyoshi Yoshitsugu wanted to scratch his head, but was stopped by the helmet.

"With an arson boat!" Katakura Keixuna offered advice.

"Arsonist ship?" Everyone looked at each other suspiciously, obviously not accustomed to water warfare, and had never seen this kind of warfare.

"In the Battle of Naruto, I heard that the use of arson ships was the key to victory." Katakura Keixuna began to recount the battle scene at that time in detail.

"Jing Gang means... Attacking the Hands Gate? "Hosokawa Motokatsu somewhat understood, since the main gate can't be passed, then attack the Honmaru directly from the back water gate.

"The Lord is clear, that's exactly the case." Katakura Keixuna bowed his head respectfully, and his advice was finished.

"Hmm..."Hosokawa Motokatsu began to fall into deep thought, as the head of the next generation of the family, it is natural to understand the various combat methods and new weapons in the family.

An arsonist ship is a self-destructing weapon that is fought by spontaneously igniting in the vicinity of an enemy ship, thereby setting it on fire. Nowadays, there are two main types, one is a straw boat and the other is a powder boat.

The straw boat is naturally to ignite the ignition on the ship to hit the enemy to achieve the purpose of ignition. The gunpowder ship is full of gunpowder and ignition materials, which is much higher than the cost of the grass boat, and of course, the power is also huge.

"Good! Send an order to Motoyoshi Murakami and ask him to send... Well... Powder ship! Perform a blast strike! Break through the Scratcher Gate and attack the Honmaru Castle Tower! Hosokawa Motokatsu finally decided to use the most powerful powder ship directly, apparently in order to take the city in one fell swoop.

"Yes!" Date Masamune, who was a close attendant, immediately received the order, then turned on his horse and headed straight for Kagoshima Town.

"Hehe... The young master is really full of talents. Ichijo Kaneda looked at the departing Date Masamune, and said with emotion, he could feel a fierce aura from Masamune's body, as well as the Sanada Yukimura next to him.

"An adult is polite, I'm afraid they won't be able to pass three moves in front of you." Hosokawa Motokatsu is modest in his mouth, but he is still very useful in his heart, after all, he has always admired his father very much, and there is an invincible Honda Tadakatsu by his side. Now it seems that Date Masamune and Sanada Yukimura around him can be black horses and red horses.

And this Date Masamune, when he was a child, suffered from sudden blistering and blindness in his right eye, and the name of "one-eyed dragon" came from this. Although he is blind in his right eye, he is very good at iron cannons, and he is even more skilled in shooting on horseback.

Therefore, Hosokawa Motokatsu thought about his own black horse in the future, so he formed a horse riding iron cannon. Most of Sanada Yukimura's tactical theories came from his father, Sanada Masayuki, who knew the art of war and could establish a real red cavalry.

"Drive! Drive! Date Masamune galloped through the smoke-soaked town of Kagoshima to the port.

"Sail! I'm going to meet Murakami-sama! Date Masamune rolled over and dismounted, came to the port, and jumped directly into a small boat.

Wow... Wow... The boat carrying Date Masamune slowly sailed into the bay and headed straight for Murakami's ship.

After a while, they approached an ironclad warship.

Whoa... Throw down the rope ladder from above and let Date Masamune go up.

"Lord Ida, but what is the young master's order?" Although Murakami Motoyoshi is already in a high position, he is very polite, and people of the younger generation such as Masamune respect him very much.

"Don't dare, my lord hopes that Lord Murakami can help attack the city." Date Masamune also lowered his posture very low, you must know that the person in front of him is not only the son-in-law of the main hall, but also the daimyo of the sea!

"Oh? If you can use it, but please ask the young master to command. Murakami Motoyoshi happened to be idle, and when he heard that there was work to do, his eyes immediately lit up.

"That's right, my lord wants to use a powder boat to blow open the gate of Shimazu Inner Castle. The navy took advantage of the situation to enter and capture the city in one fell swoop. When Date Masamune said this, he couldn't help but envy in his heart, when he could also dominate the battlefield, kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, and restore the lost family name one day earlier.

"Good! No problem! Hahaha! Here's how it will be arranged! Belch... Why don't you go with Ida-sama then? How is it? Murakami Motoyoshi immediately responded, and invited Date Masamune to attack the Scratcher Gate together.

"It's... Since Murakami-sama invited, I will follow him! Date Masamune thought about it for a while, the lord just let him send the letter, but he didn't say what to do after sending the letter, just so that he could go to the battlefield in advance and have a good time.

"Good! Hahaha! I heard that your iron cannon can drop birds, so I just happened to see it. "Murakami Motoyoshi has long heard that Masamune is good at using iron cannons, and he can also see the style when he is attacking the city.

"Hehe... Insect carving skills... Murakami-sama praised it. On the contrary, Date Masamune was embarrassed to be praised, and the one-eyed dragon's face turned a little rosy.

"Little ones! Hear me! It's time for us to show what we can do! Who will dare to shrink back then? Be careful that I ask for his head on the spot! Murakami Motoyoshi turned around and yelled at his subordinates behind him.

"Oh!" The navy shouted and began to prepare for battle. I want to talk about "Mortals Through the Law of Survival" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
