"What are you doing, bastard!" After Ono Minori had just cut down a Hatano Ashigaru, he suddenly found that a flag samurai next to him did not continue to fight after cutting down the enemy, but squatted down to cut off the enemy's head, so he didn't say angrily.

And the flag warrior was stunned after hearing this, what can he do, of course, he wants to cut off the enemy's head, and then calculate the merit, so after hearing Ono Minori shout, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Ono Shixing, seeing that he hadn't understood yet, opened a spear with the knife in his hand again, and continued to shout at him: "I can't even bring back my own head in this battle, what's the use of the enemy's head, quickly, don't want the head, just destroy the enemy." After he finished speaking, the flag warrior remembered that even if he could kill all these enemies today, there was no possibility of rushing out of the city, how to repay these heads, thinking of this, the flag warrior immediately stood up and continued to attack the enemy.

Although several of the Hachimoto samurai were also killed, there were already dozens of people lying on the ground at the Hatano family Ashigaru at the moment, and the remaining Ashigaru saw that the enemy was too difficult to deal with, so they were pressed back step by step by the remaining forty people of the other party, and in the blink of an eye, the four kings of Tenmasa were exposed to the front.

At this moment, the four kings of Tenmasa are only concerned with commanding Ashigaru, and he now plans to surround the enemy with these ashigaru, but he can only say that the idea is good, but in this way, there are not many ashigaru in front of him, and the enemy is just blindly rushing forward, how can more than ten ashigaru stop their footsteps.

Ono Minori suddenly saw that the person in front of him was no longer Ashigaru, but a samurai, and looking at the armor on the other party's body, it was enough to prove that his status in the Hatano family was not low, and if he could get it, then it would be worth it even if he died. So without saying a word, he picked up the knife and put it on.

"I'm the general of the Takayama family, Minoru Ono, and I'm here to take your dog's life." As he spoke, the sword in his hand went straight to the four kings, Tianzheng and filial piety.

And although the Four Kings Tianzheng Xiao is also with a sword in his hand at the moment, he is commanding the ashigaru on the side to surround him at this moment, and he doesn't notice that the enemy has attacked in front of him, so when he hears the other party's shout. It's too late to turn around and fight.

If you change the samurai who often fight outside, then the first reaction is not to turn your head, but to quickly flash to the side, but these four kings Tianzheng filial piety rarely participate in battles, and field battles are even rarer, so how can there be such a reaction.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw that the sword in the enemy's hand had already arrived in front of him, and it was too late to raise the knife to parry or dodge.

Hearing only a "poof", the sword in Ono's hand slipped directly from his shoulder. From the right shoulder all the way to the left waist, a large infusion is made that is tens of centimeters long enough to be visible to the bone.

The four kings Tianzheng Xiao screamed and fell to the ground.

"Lord Siwangtian has been taken, we can't stop it, run, brothers, run." Ashigaru, who was relatively close, saw this scene completely, and then immediately shouted. While throwing away the spear in his hand, he turned and ran. And the rest of Ashigaru is not in the fighting spirit. Now that even the leading generals have been killed, how can they be the opponents of the enemy, so they also dispersed in a hurry.

"My lord, let's go down the mountain and open the gates for the army." After wiping the blood from the sword on the enemy's body, he listened to only one of the Hachimoto samurai.

"There are thousands of enemy troops in Okada Maru. There is no possibility of opening the gates of the city by our own judgment. ”

"Then my lord, where should we kill now?"

I saw Ono Minori raise his head, and pointed at the castle tower on the top of the mountain not far away, and then said: "Now the enemies are all in Okada Maru, or in the mountain castle to chase and kill the Hao army. And the castle tower is empty, and we will take this opportunity to kill and go up the mountain, and we will definitely be able to establish immortal achievements. As long as Hideji Hatano died, not only could the castle be breached, but the Hatano family would also be destroyed. ”

"I'm willing to follow your lordship."

"Okay, target the castle tower, kill me with me!"

In the castle tower, Hideji Hatano did not stop for more after the arrangement, but hurried towards the observation deck. When he saw that Ninomaru had been completely covered by the fire, he couldn't help but sit on the ground limply, and now the grain and grass have been completely destroyed, so even if he can kill all the troops of those wealthy clans, how long can this city be defended, without the enemy army outside the city to attack, as long as it is trapped for three days, then this city will not be attacked.

Since there was no hope at the moment, he calmed down, and already thought that this matter was not so simple. The Four Kings Tianzheng Xiao took 200 people to fight the fire, which should be enough, but the fire was not only not extinguished, but became bigger and bigger, which shows that the Four Kings Tianzheng Xiao must have encountered the enemy's resistance, otherwise he would never have watched the grain and grass be burned by the fire. But it's not once or twice that they have dealt with these forces under the command of the Tanbo Hao clan, they will definitely not have such courage, even if they mutiny, then the first thing they think of is to scatter and flee, how can they resist senselessly. Therefore, it is obvious that these wealthy clans must be mixed with the spies of the enemy army outside the city, and I am afraid that there are quite a few people, otherwise, even if the strength of the army is not as good as the elite of the mountain army, but under the attack of 200 people, there is no possibility of blocking the opponent if there are fewer people.

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart, once the other party destroyed the grain and grass, what would he do, one was to rush to Gangda Maru to open the city gate for the army outside the city, this is obviously impossible, the reason why he didn't mobilize too many troops just now was to prevent the enemy army outside the city from taking advantage of the chaos to attack the city, so this road is obviously impassable. The other way is to kill the castle tower......

"Ah, no, come on." I only heard Hideji Hatano shouting.

"My lord's command." A close attendant who was already waiting beside him hurriedly walked up to him and saluted.

"You go to Okada Maru quickly, and transfer five hundred troops to come to the castle tower to garrison, go quickly."

"Ahh Before the attendant could leave, he heard a scream from the gate of the castle tower.

"My lord, the enemy is attacking... Yes. Then someone in the castle tower shouted, but before he could finish speaking, it was clear that he had been killed.

"Lord, go quickly."

Hatano heard the constant shouts of killing, and said with a miserable smile: "Now there are only more than 20 defenders in the Heavenly Guard Pavilion, how can they escape." ”

"Lord, what should I do?" After listening to this, the attendant was obviously panicked, at this time, as a samurai, there were only two choices, one was to commit suicide by seppuku with dignity, and the other was to fight to the death, since he asked so, it was obvious that he didn't want to die.

He didn't want to die, and Hideji Hatano certainly didn't want to die. Originally, there were only two roads left, but he didn't choose one, but said: "The matter has come to this, follow me... Come with me and meet the enemy commander. ”

Since there were indeed not many defenders in the castle tower, Ono Minoru quickly rushed to the fifth floor with the remaining forty or so people. Originally, he thought that at this moment, Hideji Hatano should have seppuku or a weapon in hand and was ready to fight him, but when he came in, he found that Hideji Hatano was sitting on a soft cushion at this moment, and he had no intention of making a move, and although the attendant behind him was standing, his hand was far away from the weapon at his waist.

"Who's here?" Seeing that someone finally walked in, Hideji Hatano asked calmly, but everyone could still hear the trills mixed in with his words.

"I'm the general of the Takayama family, Ono Minoru, now that you and I have faced it, then the Hatano family has lost this battle, what else do you have to say, I'll send you on your way after speaking."

"My lord, although this time my family was defeated, but as an adult, it seems that I have no right to sentence me Hatano Hideji to life and death, I want to see Sakuma Nobukatsu and the Takayama clan!"

Ono Minoru said that it has reached this point now, and the other party is still pretending to be like this, but since the other party has proposed to see the lord, he can't do it anymore, after all, the lord didn't let him do anything to this Hatano Hideji, so I don't know what the lord has plans for him.

"Hmph, I can spare your life, but you immediately order the castle ashigaru to stop the fighting, and send someone to our army's main camp to inform my lord and Sakuma-sama of the news."

And at the same time that Ninomaru was in turmoil and Ono Minoru was burning food for fire, Naomasa Ogino in a samurai mansion in Sannomaru quietly pulled out the ribs around his waist and tiptoed towards the two Hatano family ashigaru who were napping to take care of him.

Just this afternoon, he has received a report from Ogino Masakiyo, and tonight is the time to do it, and when Ogino Masaaki left, Ogino Naomasa has been looking for a chance to escape from here, but the two flags that followed him are like plasters, no matter how hard he tries, but he still hasn't shaken it off, which makes him anxious.

Seeing that the sky has darkened, if you can't escape, then I'm afraid that you will really die, if you are on the battlefield, Ogino Naomasa will not be afraid of death, after all, as a samurai, he always has the consciousness of death, but now it is different, although he has not seen the Takayama clan, but since he has let his subordinates return to bed, it is enough to show that the other party has accepted the family, and as long as this time it is successful, then his own credit is really not small, if he dies now, it will be a great loss.

But if you want not to die, the key is to monitor your two Hatano family flags on Ashigaru, with their own martial arts, it is very easy to kill these two people, but if you want to kill the two of them quietly, it will be too difficult, once you do it yourself, as long as the other Ashigaru shouts, it will inevitably alarm the other Ashigaru of Sannomaru to come, and he is outnumbered, and there is absolutely no possibility of hiding.
