Chapter 615: The Silver Hairpin (Page 1/1)

Bayan and Andrew led the cavalry to rush onto the drawbridge, not only breaking the chains of the drawbridge, but also killing the widows on the drawbridge.

In front of them, only the uncrowded gate of Atsugi Castle remained, and the Japanese people who were blocked at the gate were even more anxious.

Listening to the screams behind them, everyone desperately squeezed forward. Just as the Japanese people were desperately squeezing forward, there were several screams in front of them.

And the screams continued, and the Japanese people in front of them seemed to be frightened and wanted to flee from Atsugi Castle.

The gates of the city, which could still be moved occasionally, were completely blocked by the Japanese who fled from the inside, and they couldn't move at all.

The screams continued, and the men in the middle did not know whether to squeeze in or flee.

At this moment, Bayan and Andrew led the cavalry to arrive, and the Japanese people surrounding the city gate did not care about anything else.

The desire to survive allowed them to overcome everything, and everyone rushed forward with all their might.

The Japanese people, who were still evenly matched, moved forward in an instant, and they desperately pushed their companions in front of them, hoping to enter Atsugi Castle.

The leader of the Japanese samurai was armed with a bloody Japanese sword and slashed at the Japanese in front of him, and he did not know how many people fell under his sword.

But he had only one thought in his heart, and that was to close the city gates as soon as possible. If the pirates were allowed to follow into the city, Atsugi Castle would be completely destroyed.

Although it was once his own people who blocked the city gate, he did not have any mercy at all. He led his ashigaru to kill those who were blocking the city gates, and under the terrified gaze of those people, he slashed down the people in front of him one after another.

Looking at the crowd at the city gate, he was very anxious. The pirates had already washed up the drawbridge and could not delay any longer.

Just as he kept swinging his knife and slashing, the Japanese people in front of him suddenly rushed towards him. He just cut down one man and was knocked to the ground, and countless feet stepped on him.

He gradually lost his strength before he even had a chance to stand up, and the ashigaru he brought was not much better. Soon drowned in the crowd, and faintly he could hear the sound of horses' hooves. A large horse's hoof appeared in his pupils, and then darkness descended, and the whole world was cleared.

Atsugi Castle was successfully taken by the Changxing Army, and the work of clearing the Japanese people in the city was completed by the soldiers of the Death Brigade.

Two thousand soldiers of the death brigade slaughtered into the city, and immediately caused a series of screams to resound in Atsugi Castle. The killing continued for a day before it stopped, and the surviving widows were all scared by the pirates.

When the Changxing army entered the city, the Japanese people knelt on both sides of the blood-stained streets. They buried their heads deep in the ground, not daring to look up at the passing pirates.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Zhang Dou looked at the map on the bookcase and fell into deep thought. The Wa people of Atsugi are so strange, why do they use eggs to bang stones? Wouldn't it be better to stay in the city and wait for help?

No matter what it is said that the Changxing Army is the party that gains, no matter how many conspiracies there are, they will collapse in the face of absolute strength.

Okubo was not surprised to hear the report of the fall of Atsugi Castle sent by his subordinates, and it would be hellish if Atsugi Castle could win under his arrangement.

The next thing to see is how the shogun responds, he has sacrificed one of his castles and more than 10,000 soldiers, and no one can find fault with the Okubo family.

Now let's look at the strength of the Edo shogunate's own family, if you can't withstand the attack of pirates, you will lose Edo Castle for the second time. So......

Tokugawa Iemitsu was shocked to learn of the pirate landing, and then rejoiced. The pirates relied on the strength of the ships and the guns, and the sailors of the shogunate really had no way to take the pirates before they practiced well.

But now that the pirates have come ashore, he believes that the elite samurai of his family will definitely teach the pirates a lesson. If you can encircle and suppress pirates, you can be ashamed.

The more he thought about it, the happier Tokugawa Iemitsu became, immediately asked the samurai of his family to gather and mobilize all the banners in the shogunate's domain.

As soon as the summoning order was issued, it was sent to various places on fast horses. For a time, the war horses were running within the shogunate, and there were constantly people on the way to Edo Castle.

It didn't take long for the news of the loss of Atsugi Castle to reach the ears of Tokugawa Iemitsu, who had no other way but to scold Okubo for his loyal waste.

All he could do was strengthen the defenses of Machida Castle and create time for him to assemble a large army. This time, he no longer trusted Odawara's Okubo, and personally sent 10,000 samurai of the Honke family to Machida Castle. And gave the order to die, even if the last man was killed, he would hold out until the arrival of the army.

Goro Kimura is just 18 years old this year, and he has already started a family. Cultivating the land of the samurai lord in the village, although he can't eat enough, he can get by.

Since he was a child, he has had a wish to eat meat in large quantities, even if only once, which will make him feel satisfied. Although his wife, Yumi, is only fourteen years old, she also knows how to run a family.

Although the life of the two is a little hard, it is also stable. Today, several samurai on war horses came to the village, and Kimura and his wife knelt at their doorstep to welcome the noble samurai.

When they learned of the shogunate's summoning order, everyone in the village had different expressions. Some have sad faces, some are excited, and some have happy faces.

Kimura was one of those who was excited, knowing that if he played for the main family, he would get some money and food reduced, and if he was lucky, he would be even happier if he was rewarded by the main family.

But his wife Yumi doesn't think so, and her husband will be in danger when he goes on the expedition. If there are three long and two short, how can she live as a woman?

But looking at her husband's excited expression, Yumi knew that she couldn't persuade her husband at all. She could only silently enter the room and take out her favorite white handkerchief.

Wrap a ball of cotton in the center of the handkerchief, think about it, cut off a strand of your hair with scissors, wrap it in the handkerchief with cotton, and then tie it into the handkerchief with black silk threads.

Then draw a smiley face on the round bump on the handkerchief, and a simple sunny day doll is made. Yumi just held the sunny doll in the palm of her hand and moved it to the outer room in small steps.

She saw her husband who was rummaging through the cabinets, and with deep concern in her eyes, she kept looking at her busy husband.

Finally, Kimura found what he was looking for at the bottom of a box, he took out some moldy bamboo armor from the box, compared it to himself, and when he looked back at his wife, he asked, "Yumi!" Do I wear this bamboo armor like a hero? ”

Yumi nodded heavily and said, "Hi! Husband, you are a hero in the heart of the United States! ”

Kimura listened to Yumi's words and had a happy smile on his face. He put down the bamboo armor and walked to his wife's side, gently hugged the day in his arms, and said softly: "Yumi! I'm sure I'll bring back a lot of rewards, and then you can buy that favorite silver hairpin!" ”

Yumi broke free from Kimura's embrace, stared into Kimura's eyes and said, "Yumi doesn't want a silver hairpin, Yumi only needs her husband to return safely!" ”
