Chapter 1111: Maritime Supremacy (9)

It's just that he doesn't know that the reason why Antaku Nobuyasu gave up defending the city, but refused to defend it in the castle tower is also out of helplessness, if the hundred troops under his command are willing to die, then it is enough to defend this small continent city, at least it can definitely block the attack of these three hundred people, but when he said that the enemy was about to attack, most of the troops under his command did not want to be loyal to the Ataku family after hearing this shocking news, so before Fan Lizhi led the army, he fled first, In the end, there were only twenty-one ashigaru left. With only these ashigaru left, it was obviously impossible to defend the castle, so Ataka Nobuyasu could only concentrate his troops and fight the enemy to the death in the castle tower.

Fan Li Naomasa did not attack the Ataka army as soon as he came up, but walked to a position ten meters away from the castle tower, and said loudly: "Ataka Shinyasu, this battle of the Ataka water army has been wiped out, if you are willing to submit to the family, then my lord can not only spare your life, but also entrust you with a heavy responsibility, what do you think?" ”

Let it return to obedience This is also one of the plans made before coming, once the attack is smooth, then this Ataku Nobuyasu can persuade to surrender, it is naturally the best to be included in the command, after all, there are many people who know water, but there are few who really understand water warfare, it is pitiful, it is obvious that Ataku Nobuyasu not only knows how to fight water, but also very proficient, such a person is always reluctant to kill when he comes to Shimadotsu, but he also mentioned it casually before going out of the army, after all, he thought at that time that even if he and the Shimazu Navy were launched a surprise attack, it is estimated that this battle will not go too smoothly, It was not easy to persuade Ataka Nobuyasu to surrender, but who knew that this attack was much smoother than the most ideal, and even completely burned the opponent's ships, but also trapped Ataka Nobuyasu in the castle tower.

"Joke, what are you, you deserve to say these words in front of me, go back and tell Kurishima Don't think that you can rest easy if you defeat the Ataka Navy, let him wait to bear the wrath of the Kumano Navy, hahaha!" After Antaku Nobuyasu finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing, even now he still didn't put the Maori naval army that defeated him in his eyes, and it was even more impossible to accept the other party's solicitation, in his opinion, there was no difference between returning to the island naval army and sending him to death, rather than this, it was better to die vigorously on the battlefield, and he also had the name of his loyalty.

After listening to it, he saw that his attitude was firm, and he did not have any intention of surrendering, at this moment Ataka Nobuyasu had been surrounded, and at the same time, the warship under Li Dan's command should have already set off, and he was not afraid of leaking secrets at all, so he still wanted to work harder, so he only heard him say: "Lord Atakata, it's so hard that you think that your own navy dares to attack Awaji, and you won't be prepared for the Kumano navy, let me tell you the truth, don't say that the Kumano navy can come to help, maybe it won't take three days to perish with the Ataka navy." ”

"Don't think that if you succeed in the sneak attack on your own family, you can repeat the old tricks, just before you came, I have already sent my retainers to inform the Nine Ghosts, I think you will be destroyed in three days!" Antaku Nobuyasu didn't take the other party's words to heart at all, not to mention that he had already sent someone to inform the Nine Ghosts Jialong, even if no one went, it would be extremely difficult to sneak attack the Kumano Water Army, the Kumano Water Army was huge, so it was not just a water village, and it was impossible for the sneak attack to work.

"Why do you need to sneak attack the Kumano Navy, I'm not afraid to tell you, Kinoshita-sama has already said that the Ming Kingdom Li Dan will join the war, at this time his fleet should have sailed to Kumano Beach, at most it can be reached at dawn, with the help of Lord Li Dan, the Kumano Navy's army is simply vulnerable, why bother to sneak attack again, how about if you choose to surrender now, you can dominate the ocean with the Laijima family, please make a choice."

After hearing the name Li Dan, Ataka Nobuyasu couldn't help but be shocked, as he was also begging for a life at sea, how could he not have heard of Li Dan's name, if what the other party said was true, then the Kumano Navy was really dangerous, it was heard that Li Dan had nearly 100 Ming Sailing Ships alone, although there were more than the number of Ataku ships of the Kumano Naval Army, and the size of the Ming Sailing Ships was even larger, in addition to more than 500 Guan ships, the number of medium-sized ships was more than the Kumano Sailing, in terms of the number of ships, The Kumano Naval Army is really at a disadvantage.

But if you let him submit because he heard the news, it is obvious that the abacus of Saitachi is wrong, for Ataka Nobuyasu, whether the Kumano Navy wins or loses has little to do with him, if he loses, the lord will dispose of him, and he is still unable to escape the fate of being changed and seppuku, as for the surrender to the Maori Army? Don't even think about it, in his opinion, this world is ultimately the Takayama family, after all, the Kinoshita family seems to be powerful, but in fact it is a large number of forces combined, how can this system be the opponent of the Takayama family, even if he is obedient, it won't be long before he returns.

So I saw him stand up, pull out the knife at his waist, and then kick Mazha to the side under his feet, and said: "Don't talk nonsense, today is either me or you die." ”

Seeing that Li Dan had already said that Li Dan had failed to make him submit, he no longer persuaded him to see that he shook his head helplessly, and with a wave of his hand, the army under his command launched an attack on the castle tower.

Ataka Nobuyasu and the twenty-one dead soldiers under his command struggled to resist, at the beginning with the geographical advantage, they could also fight against it, but the army under his command was too small, and after a while, these twenty-one ashigari died at the gate of the castle tower with Ataka Nobuyasu.

In March 1579, the Ataka Naval Army, which had a history of several decades and was the second most powerful in the domestic seas, perished, and Ataka Nobuyasu was killed.

In the early morning of the second day, the fire in Zhouben Water Village was finally extinguished, because the day was calm, so those burned into the wreckage of the fire are still in the Water Village, and it is not easy to clean them up completely.

However, these tasks were naturally done by the two naval armies, and the samurai such as Kurishima Tsujima, who was the leader, and Mei Kitakuni Kane, the commander of the Shimazu family's naval army, were not on the scene, but appeared in the assessment room of the castle tower of the island main castle.

Although there was a battle in the castle tower yesterday, it was only at the gate, so this small assessment room was very clean as usual, except that his master had changed cities and came to the island.

Lai Dao always sat unceremoniously on the main seat, and on the left of his lower hand was his own sail standing upright, cold spring Motoman and others, and then on the right hand was the commander of the Shimazu family naval army led by Mei Bei Kuni and Yoshiki Hishijima.
