"The sixth master is dead." At this time, someone spread the news from the front to the pirate leaders who were watching the battle in the rear.

"Yang Liu is dead?"

"Yes, shot by law enforcement forces."

"Who is the dog?" It was Yang Liu's younger brother Yang Qi who spoke.

"The head of the law enforcement army, Ji Shimu."

"Master, I'm going to kill him now." Yang Qi said angrily.

"Yang Qi, now that the two armies are clashing, don't mess around, wait for the war to end." Yang Tiansheng dissuaded.

"Yang Qi, calm down, I'll talk about something later." Yan Siqi also persuaded.

After Yan Siqi finished speaking, he commanded again: "Send another 3,000 people to Deng Qingsong to help him defend the right flank." Yan Siqi also saw that Deng Qingsong's right wing was a serious problem, and he immediately decided to send troops to aid Deng Qingsong.

……

And Hirata Masujong also knew that he couldn't drag it out any longer, the other party only sent 10,000 people to fight now, and there were 10,000 people in the rear, such an anxious state was very unfavorable for him, once those 10,000 people were replenished, he would definitely lose.

Hirata Masumune had to make a desperate bet, he had to completely defeat the 10,000 in front of him before the 10,000 people were replenished, only then would he have a chance to win.

Deng Qingsong now also realized that he underestimated the enemy, if he could bring all the 10,000 troops he personally trained, he would not be so passive now, at least he could be invincible, once his right flank was penetrated, his Chinese army would face pressure from both sides, and he would have to reduce the strength of the frontal attack to defend the flank. This would have had a great impact on his plan to defeat Hirata Masumune's Chinese army.

Hirata Masumune once again intensified the offensive, and Deng Qingsong's right flank really collapsed completely. The collapse of Deng Qingsong's right flank not only greatly boosted the morale of the Satsuma Domain's army, but also directly threatened Deng Qingsong's artillery and the right side of the Chinese army. For the first time, Masamune Hirata saw hope of victory.

Deng Qingsong was faced with two choices at this time, either to divide his troops to intercept the enemy troops from the right, or to temporarily retreat with the whole army.

But at this moment, there was good news from the rear, and the three thousand reinforcements sent by Yan Siqi had arrived at the position. Moreover, these 3,000 reinforcements are all Yan Siqi's guards. The arrival of 3,000 reinforcements stabilized the situation in time. Deng Qingsong was able to once again decide to break through the enemy's Chinese army with all his might.

The situation of the war was one and the other, and Hirata Masumune originally thought that victory was in sight, but with the arrival of Deng Qingsong's reinforcements, Hirata Masumune's hope of victory was completely shattered.

Now it's Hirata Massumune's turn to make a decision, whether to fight to the end or choose to retreat?

Hirata Masumune made a military order in front of everyone, and even if he could escape back to Tsurumaru Castle, there was only one way to die, and if he died on the battlefield, he would at least win honor for himself.

Hirata Masumune did not hesitate to choose to fight to the death. However, the situation is stronger than people, and even if Hirata Masumune personally participates in the battle with a katana, he will not be able to save the defeat.

Deng Qingsong's weapon superiority was finally fully displayed at this time, but the army of the Satsuma clan resisted desperately under the leadership of Hirata Masumune, which also caused some casualties to Deng Qingsong's army.

From the beginning to the end of this war, both sides suffered heavy losses. Deng Qingsong's right flank was completely defeated, and of the 2,000 Dongying New Army, less than 100 survived intact, and the number of casualties was as high as more than 1,800, and these people were either killed or injured in the hands of the enemy or under the guns of the law enforcement forces.

The 3,000 pirate army on the left flank was also almost disabled, with more than 1,500 casualties, and if it weren't for the iron-faced and selfless law enforcement forces behind it, the left flank must have collapsed. The casualties of the 5,000 guards also exceeded 1,500, of which almost all of the 1,000 on the right flank were wounded, except for those who were killed in battle.

The 10,000 troops of the Satsuma Domain suffered heavy casualties, with more than 4,000 killed on the spot, more than 3,000 captured, and the remaining nearly 2,000 all fleeing back to Tsurumaru Castle. Hirata Masumune was killed on the spot by a flintlock pistol.

Although this was a disastrous victory, it also alerted Yan Siqi and others, and Deng Qingsong obviously didn't realize that the army of a Satsuma clan was so difficult to deal with at first.

As soon as the war ended, Yang Qi came to the door, he pointed to Ji Shimu and said, "Did you kill my sixth brother?" ”

"Yang Liu violated military regulations on the battlefield and deserved to be beheaded." Ji Shimu said unceremoniously.

"Uncle, I don't care what military regulations you have, you can't kill my sixth brother, I want you to pay for your life today." Yang Qi raised his knife and slashed at Ji Shimu.

"You dare!" Deng Qingsong stopped Yang Qi's knife.

"Whoever it is, the escapee, slash! It's military regulation, and no one is an exception on the battlefield. Deng Qingsong said.

As soon as Deng Qingsong made a move, Yang Qi fell behind, and when Yang Qi saw this, he said, "You wait, I ask the alliance leader to administer justice." ”

……

At this time, Yan Siqi was in the mansion discussing with the rest of the people about pensions, rewards, and prisoners.

Yang Qi rushed in angrily, and before Yan Siqi could speak, he spoke first: "I also hope that the alliance leader will administer justice for my sixth brother." ”

This justice, Yan Siqi is really not good at presiding, Yang Liu violated military regulations first, if Ji Shimu is disposed of, then the hearts of the ten thousand guards army will be scattered.

"Yang Qi, the army has military regulations, and the state has national laws, your sixth brother violated military regulations first, what is wrong with Ji Shimu implementing military laws?" Chen Xinji saw that Yan Siqi was not easy to answer, so he took the initiative to say.

"Then is that the matter of my sixth brother settled? That's not what we said when we made an alliance. Yang Qi said angrily.

"Yang Qi, the leader of the alliance said that we must work together to overthrow the shogunate and raise our China statement in Dongying. Today's matter of Yang Liu, although Yang Liu is at fault first, but Yang Qi, you can rest assured, Yang Liu is still our brother, we will definitely bury him in a grand manner, and after the alliance leader becomes the shogun, you can revenge him as much as you want, and the alliance leader will also posthumously crown him as a great name, and his descendants will always enjoy wealth and wealth. Yang Tiansheng also discouraged.

"Yang Qi, the power of the shogunate is much stronger than we imagined, we must rely on the Weisho army to overthrow the shogunate, you can bear with today's matter first, and then discuss it after the future alliance leader is completed." Li Zhiqi also dissuaded.

"Brother, today is indeed not the time to talk about this, I will accompany you to arrange Yang Liu's funeral." Li dragged Yang Qi and walked outside.

……

After Yang Qi left, Yan Siqi said softly: "I heard that Xu Xinsu has followed His Majesty to Shanxi to recruit volunteers, if this matter is successful, our side can have at least 50,000 volunteers, and this time the volunteers are the most elite border troops of the Ming Dynasty, and their combat power is slightly better than that of ordinary guards." ”
