At this time, the Izu Navy was still in the chaos just now, and it was not able to recover, and this time it was obviously occupied by the Nine Ghost Family, and soon formed an encirclement of the Izu Navy Army, making them even more chaotic.

"Hurry up and retreat!" At this time, Fu Yong Shansui finally said this sentence, which was equivalent to admitting defeat to the opponent.

But the retreat is really so easy, the Nine Ghosts Jialong has put on such a big formation in this place, and it is specially waiting for them to come, all of this has long been in the imagination of the Nine Ghosts Jialong, how can it be possible for them to retreat so easily!

Just as they were about to retreat, they suddenly found themselves with a small fleet behind them, and it was this small fleet that blocked their entire back road.

The Izu Naval Army, which was already on the verge of collapse, became even more chaotic after seeing this situation, and many small boats had already left the formation, hoping to leave first.

The leader of this detachment of the Nine Ghost Water Army is the son-in-law of Nine Ghost Yoshitaka and the general under his command, Toyoda Goro Uemon, who is also the person under Nine Ghost Yoshitaka who is most familiar with water warfare. When his fleet lined up, it was difficult for the chaotic Izu navy to pass by him.

After half an hour of fighting, the Izu Navy was completely defeated, and Tominaga Yama was killed directly in the water battle, while the other large and small ships, more than 30 of them were sunk by the Nine Ghosts, more than 20 of the remaining ships escaped, and the remaining 50 or so ships all surrendered to the Nine Ghost Naval Army, but those ships that fled no longer dared to engage the Nine Ghost Naval Army, even if they fled back, it would not have much effect.

When the Izu Navy came, there were 1,000 people of all kinds, and this was a very powerful navy team, and after this battle, in the fierce battle, many soldiers were killed by the Nine Ghost Family, and only three or four hundred people remained.

On the side of the Nine Ghosts Jialong, because he had already dealt with it, he only lost ten large and small warships and dozens of personnel, which was definitely a very brilliant victory.

At this time, the second task given to him by the Kuroda family began to carry out, which was to attack Shimoda Castle, which was located in the east of Izu Province.

This castle is a castle located in the south of Shimizu Yasueiju Castle, and if this castle can be blocked, it will also cut off the route of Shimizu Yasuei's continued retreat, because to the west of Shimizu Yasueiju Castle, there is a continuous mountain, and it is basically difficult to pass through here.

The Nine Demons moved very quickly, and after leaving a small group of men and horses to guard the Izu Islands, he quickly headed to the intended Usami Castle.

The Nine Ghosts Jialong turned out to be the Nine Ghosts Party of the Shima Kingdom, and this part of the people went to the sea to be pirates, sailors, and when they went on the road, they were the existence of wealthy clans and people, so they also had strong land combat capabilities, in short, they could be called the marines of the Wa Kingdom in this era.

When they came to Usami Castle, Usami Castle didn't expect anyone to attack from their rear, and Shimizu Yasuei was not so prepared, let alone the guards in the middle of such a small city.

Because most of the men and horses had been taken to the north by Yasuei Shimizu at this time to prepare to fight the Kuroda family, there were only 100 old, weak, sick and disabled guards in Usami Castle.

So when the men and horses of the Nine Ghost Jialong came outside the city, they were completely at a loss, they couldn't have imagined that there were people from the Kuroda family who would attack us from the sea, which was unscientific!

This is because the number of men and horses left behind is not only small, but also not elite, so the attack on the side of the Nine Ghosts Jialong was very smooth, and it only took half an hour to capture Shimoda Castle.

And what I want to say here is that the newly recruited ones of the Nine Ghost Kataka, the samurai who turned out to be against the Hojo family, all showed very strong combat effectiveness in this battle.

Of course it will be so, because all the suffering and grief they have experienced before were all caused to them by the Hojo family, and now that they have the opportunity to fight back against the Hojo family, of course they will fight as if they were beaten with chicken blood, because their brave and fearless behavior has indirectly caused this stop to be very smooth.

And at this time, Hanafang Masayuki had already taken the three thousand men and horses under his command and came all the way to the side of Shimizu Yasuei's residence.

Yasuei Shimizu is a talented general, and he led the 2,000 people of the Izu people under his command, not to defend his own city, but to defend it purposefully.

First of all, he placed some of his men on Mt. Hirosawa, which is an easy place to defend and difficult to attack, and as we have just said, to the west of Shimizu Yasueiju Castle, there is a continuous mountain, which is also a mountainous area in the middle of Izu Province, which is a large mountain formed by the geological structure of the coast.

This kind of terrain is actually very common in coastal places, and many people may think that coastal places will be very flat, and they should be a whole plain, which is indeed the case in many places.

However, it is important to know that in coastal areas, if you look at plate tectonics, many of them are actually the junctions of geological plates. Where the geological plates meet, there will be strong geological movements, and these geological movements will bring a series of geological formations such as volcanoes, mountains, and hot springs.

The beautiful coastal areas of Izu Province are the result of a series of geological formations, such as mountains, coastal plains, and hot springs, which are the result of a series of geological formations.

Guangze Mountain is due to the mountain formed by such a geological formation, so it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Qing Shui Yasui is the head snake, how can he not know about such a terrain? Carrying out a defensive arrangement in this place will definitely form a situation where one man is the key and ten thousand people are not open.

The arrangement of Shimizu Yasuei is very good, and a temporary fence was built on the top of the two mountains, which was completely used for defense, and in the middle of the road, there were a lot of fences to resist horses and fences.

If the Kuroda family wants to pass through here, it must first break through the defenses in the middle and at the same time resist the long-range attacks of the enemy on the two hills, which is very difficult.

After the soldiers of the Kuroda family under the leadership of Hanafang Masayuki captured Yamanaka Castle, several small castles in the vicinity were already concentrated in the mountains because of their strength.
