"Here, here, you can build an embankment! Then block the downstream, and then drain Takamatsu City! This is the conclusion we have come to through our measurements. "Kuroda retainer Yoshida Nagatoshi pointed on the sand table, during the day today, Senkaimaru and his party circled around Takamatsu Castle three times and thoroughly figured out the situation.

"Excellent! Let's get ready to start working now! "Smart Pill waved his hand, full of confidence. He also observed on the spot that the height difference between Takamatsu Castle and the Ashimori River upstream has reached five meters, and it is completely possible to flood Takamatsu Castle!

"But the young master, the strategy of attacking Takamatsu City by water is a good strategy. However, the key lies in two points: first, to bring in sufficient and large quantities of water; Second, this project is a large amount of work, and it requires a lot of manpower to bring in water and build a dam around it. You can't let our soldiers who are besieging Takamatsu Castle go to build the embankment together, right? If the Maori army were to attack, who would defend and protect the levee? It is said that the Maori family is almost mobilized now, and it should be on the way by now. Hosokawa Fujitaka frowned, this plan still lacks these two prerequisites.

"Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men!" Senimaru grinned, this sentence was taught to him by his father.

"What do you mean?" Niwa Nagahide thought of something.

"That's right! When the news was released to me, it was said that all the people in the local area and the surrounding areas who came to help build the embankment would receive a reward of 100 wen and 1 liter of rice every time they brought a large bag of earth! "Clever Pill is rich and generous, and promises to make a lot of profits.

"The young master is wise!" Everyone saluted, admiring this creative rule, which was a very high reward at the time.

"As a result, the water diversion and the construction of the dike, as well as the soil materials for the dam, are in place, and now there is only enough water left." Mibuchi Fujiei went on to say that this is also a key element.

"Don't worry, your Excellency, it's early summer, and it rains heavily every time this season comes. By that time, there was water in the nearby river. Ukita Tadashi said in the back that as a local, he was well aware of the changes in the local solar terms. Now, as the representative of the Uki family, he is also fortunate to participate in a military conference of this scale.

"Hahaha! That's great! Now that our army occupies the right time, place, and people, this battle will be won! "Smart Pill waved his hand heroically, as a commander, he must always lead the morale of the army.

"This battle will be won! Our army will win! The generals shouted one after another, full of confidence.

That night, the Hosokawa army released the news, and the local and surrounding people heard about it. Outside Takamatsu Castle, the Hosokawa family has a high bounty just for a large bag of dirt...

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Hurry, hurry... you! Come with me and dig up the dirt and send it over! "In a scene in a certain village, the man urged his mother-in-law, and before dawn, he hurriedly packed a large bag of dirt and ran in the direction of Takamatsu Castle.

"Hurry up, hurry up, maybe there's a limit! Let's hurry up and redeem the reward! "On a certain street, there is a father and son, carrying two large bags of dirt, as if they are a limited number of purchases, trotting all the way towards Takamatsu City.

"Great! The whole family is out! This can be exchanged for several liters of rice at once. Then transport a few more packs, and you won't have to worry about eating and drinking. "The people of the local area and the surrounding area enthusiastically participated in the construction of the embankment, and from the sky, the people who flocked to the embankment were like ants moving, carrying a large number of earth bags.

From April 8 to April 12, it took only four days to build an embankment at least several hundred meters long in the area around Takamatsu Castle, which is about 7 meters high, 21 meters wide at the bottom, and 10 meters wide at the top.

"Hahaha! Now everything is ready, only the heavy rain is missing. Clever Pill looked at this masterpiece and nodded with satisfaction, this project is definitely not less difficult than One Day City.

"Newspaper... Young Lord! The Maori Army, with a total strength of about 40,000, was heading here! "See the Hattori Bao Yuan into the report.

"Hmph, it's finally here!" Smart Pill now really understands the benefits of the standing system, and the mobilization capacity that is nearly a month behind is really cold daylily.

Mori Terumoto led an army of more than 40,000 troops to Bichu, and set up the main camp at Sarukake Castle, Yoshikawa Motoharu at Mt. Iwasaki west of Takamatsu Castle, and Kobayakawa Takakei at Mt. Hizasa in the north.

"Oh my God! See, what's that? "As soon as the Maori army came, they naturally saw the magnificent levee, and they didn't know what it was for.

"Young master, are you launching a tentative attack?" Hosokawa Shinyuki asked respectfully, although he was the elder of Senkaimaru, he was also a courtier.

"Uncle is not in a hurry, it just so happens that we are still short of audiences, so let them witness the miracle together." Smart Pill smiled slightly, he thought of a new tactic that his father had taught him and was ready to try it out.

There was no word for a few days, both sides were restrained and did not start any fighting.

But... The rain is starting to fall.

This time, it was really raining heavily for several days, and the water level of the river skyrocketed.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Young master! Go back! I'll leave it to your subordinates! Kuroda Takataka braved the heavy rain and shouted at Senkai Maru, the rain was too much.

"It's okay! Let's start breaking the levee! Pay attention to the safety of our personnel! "Smart Pill came to the scene in person and commanded in the rain.

"Yes! Please rest assured! It's all in the calculations! Kuroda tapped his chest and reassured, then turned his head and shouted at his subordinates, who immediately went to convey the order to break the embankment.

When Yoshida Nagatoshi received the order, he did not dare to slack off, and reconfirmed that the downstream had been blocked, and calculated the location of the embankment again.

After being accurate, an order was given: "Break the embankment!" ”

duang！ duang！ The soldier in charge of breaking the levee was armed with a heavy hammer and smashed it on the embankment.

Smack! Smack! Several dirt bales were smashed open on the surface of the embankment, and the river overflowed through the breach, which was rapid, but not enough to flood the mountain.

"All back off! You, you! Go up and have a few more hammers! Yoshida Nagatoshi looked at the gap that felt a little loose, and with a ruthless heart, he ordered the two ashigaru to step forward and make two more shots.

The two ashigaru stood at both ends of the predetermined point, glanced at each other, and tacitly rounded the hammer, aimed at the dirt bag below, and smashed it deeper!

Bang Dang! Slammed into the embankment, turned around and ran!

Boom! With a loud bang like thunder, the weight of the hammer and the power of water pressure directly broke a big hole in the embankment, and the river water splashed out along the gap!

Like a water dragon, it roared and swallowed towards Takamatsu Castle! Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find?
