Chapter 5: Slaughtering the Sect

After all, there are so many people on the other side, and slowly consuming the other party's vital force is the most practical way. As a result, the Kuroda family's attack entered a period of relative peace, and they only besieged Ninomaru and Honmaru without attacking. The Honganji side trapped in it often organizes cannon fodder to come out to consume the strength of the Kuroda family, and this is the time when the Kuroda family's naval army shows its strength, and the naval army of more than 3,000 people can basically capture one or two thousand people every time.

It wasn't until five such attacks on the side of Honganji that they themselves could not stand such heavy casualties, and they stopped a little, because the believers in the city were still afraid.

Seeing that no one dared to come out of the Ninomaru, the Kuroda family began to advance again, and in the Sannomaru, some of the relatively high-lying houses that were originally used to live for the believers were transformed into the forward positions of the Kuroda family's military craftsmen to attack Ninomaru!

There is the Kuroda family's Ming State Naval Army, and on the platform converted from these houses, they conduct various long-range shots at the defenders inside Ninomaru, consuming their numbers and psychological defenses.

When the Kuroda family began to attack Ninomaru, it finally caused chaos in the military formation on the side of Honganji, and it was not the ordinary believers who were cannon fodder, but the elite monks.

When they used these ordinary believers as cannon fodder, they kept saying that as long as they shouted Amitabha, they could ascend to bliss early and not suffer from this human suffering.

And when they faced death by themselves, their hearts began to collapse, and they felt that no matter how they defended, they would die in the end, and they would definitely not be able to escape the clutches of the Kuroda family, so they made their own decisions like the Kuroda family surrendering, hoping to save their lives in this way.

But none of these monks who came out of Ninomaru and tried to surrender to the Kuroda family were able to get out of Ishiyama Honganji alive, because they themselves did not escape the massacre of the Kuroda family.

Before this, the Kodera clan had once again emphasized that if the Ishiyama Honganji side could be slaughtered, there would be absolutely no one left, and his attitude was very tough, because at this time, those who were still willing to stay in the Ishiyama Honganji Temple must be devout followers of the Ishiyama Honganji sect, or the core people.

For these pious people of the Tsuyoshi Sect, there is no need for the Kuroda family to keep them, even if they claim to be willing to change their faith, in the end they still retain the most devout belief in the Ichinaka, which the Kuroda family can never agree to, and it is also a threat to the Kuroda family's rule.

In other words, the Kuroda family has already cut off the possibility of everyone in Honganji subduing, and in this case, although the organizational resistance of Honganji's side will definitely become stronger.

But for the Kodera clan, being able to complete the task assigned to him by Kuroda Vocational High School is the most important thing, and as for helping Kuroda Vocational High School, he is willing.

Moreover, regarding the matter of Honganji, Kuroda Vocational High School has instructed that the grass must be cut and eradicated, otherwise for this kind of religious daimyo, it will definitely be born again.

In this way, the two sides engaged in an extremely tragic tug-of-war, and in the end, with the help of the Kuroda family's 3,000 sailors' continuous shooting, at the cost of 3,500 people. In the end, all the people of the Ichijo sect in Ishiyama Honganji Castle were killed. As for Honmaru like Honganji, in the end, he even used a fire attack to brutally burn all the people who resisted Honmaru.

There was also a small episode in the process of attacking, a soldier of the Kuroda family saw a child who had just turned five or six years old, so he was ready to let him go, but he still had some pity in his heart.

The moment he turned his head, the child stabbed a knife into his back. Fortunately, he didn't hit the point, and the soldier finally killed the child. Sometimes even if you don't want to kill someone, there is a deep hatred on both sides, and you have to do something like this.

Human beings are extremely complex animals, and sometimes hatred can play a very big role, allowing a child to take up arms, and it can also make a good person use his own weapons against a child.

The life and death of tens of thousands of people, in fact, can still shake the world, and at the same time, the name of the Kotera clan has spread all over the world, and the slaughter of 10,000 people and horses of the Xiang Sect before may still be a trivial matter, after all, there is no one who has not done this kind of thing in the slaughter, such as Uesugi Kenshin, who is known as righteousness, and Takeda Shingen has not done less massacres. But the slaughter of 70,000 or 80,000 people at one time is really a bit jaw-dropping to the heroes of the world.

At the same time, the Kuroda family's behavior also made everyone see the Kuroda family's determination to eliminate the Pure Land True Sect! But the fact is that the head of the Pure Land Shin Sect, Ishiyama Gobo, was really razed to the ground by the Kuroda family.

In addition, the Kaga Ichijo sect has been eradicated by Musato Takatomo before, and the Ichisho sect of Mikawa and Nagashima has also been killed by Tokugawa Ieyasu and Oda Nobunaga respectively, in fact, the power of the Ichisho sect in the world has been very scarce.

These two congratulatory gifts are still very satisfying for Kuroda Yoshitaka, the first Besho family, which has been a force that has been in the east of the Kuroda family for decades, has always been a big problem for the Kuroda family. The second Honganji Temple is another force that Kuroda Vocational High School does not like and strongly demands that it must be eliminated.

At the same time, after the elimination of Ishiyama Honganji, it was finally a time when the world was impressed by the Kuroda family, and it turned out that the Kuroda family was able to make those wealthy families and people submit before, which was already very gentle.

You must know that the Kuroda family killed 70,000 or 80,000 people, what is the concept of 70,000 or 80,000 people? The entire population of some daimyo families together may not be as much as 70,000 or 80,000 people, but the Kuroda family has killed more people at one time, and there is no room for negotiation, what kind of means is this, at least the Kuroda family's decisiveness this time has indeed shocked many people.

Ten days after knowing the news, Tokugawa Ieyasu surrendered with the only remaining more than 1,000 people under his command, and at the same time, it was very difficult to accept the Kuroda family's proposal, which was very harsh and only reserved for the Tokugawa family, and most of the samurai under Tokugawa Ieyasu did not leave the Tokugawa family, but accepted the condition of continuing to serve Tokugawa Ieyasu with a very low salary, these Mikawa samurai can really be called loyal as dogs.
