Chapter 308: The Battle of Gaocheng
Yamada Takako saw that this Balai God was tall and fat, with more than 300 pounds, and a huge stick in his hand was also majestic, so he believed it a little; So he ordered someone to open the city gate and let the god of Balai go out with 500 soldiers to meet the enemy.

Kan Ling really didn't expect the enemy to be able to fight, he looked at the big black fat man opposite, and secretly laughed in his heart and said, "Who are you on the other side?" ā
The translator hurriedly said it in the Japanese language, and the Eight Lai God pouted: "I am the first master of Tsukushi Island, and I am here to take your life." As he spoke, he rushed forward, and hit him with the big stick in his hand.
Kan Ling didn't dodge or dodge, and the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand parried hard. "Dang!" With a sound, Balai God was shocked, and he retreated several steps, and Kan Ling also shook twice on the horse.
"This guy has a lot of strength!" Kan Ling secretly sighed in his heart. "Uhh ā
Kan Leng's Mo knife is made of the steel of the Great Demon Kingdom after a hundred refinements, how can it be comparable to the vulgar things of these people in the Wa Kingdom; With this hard contact, a section of the stick of the Eight Lai Gods was immediately cut off.
Although the quality of the stick of the Eight Lai Gods is average, it is also a rare treasure in their eyes. This was destroyed by Kan Ling, and he was distressed and shed tears, crying and wailing bitterly.
He didn't think about whether he was Kan Leng's opponent, and smashed the big stick in his hand again. Kan Ling saw that this guy was stronger, and his shot was out of order, he sneered, and the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand pressed against the momentum of the big stick; The guy stumbled and fell forward.
Kan Leng's big knife took advantage of the situation, "Poof! "There was a great disembowelment of him, and the dead body fell to the ground and died.
When the soldiers of the Japanese Kingdom saw it, they ran back with a hula; Kan Ling took the opportunity to chase after him, but the high city was built on a hill, and he had to rush upwards first, and when he chased the enemy, the city gate was closed. Yamada Takataka gave an order, and the rolling wood and stones in the city fell down desperately, and Kan Ling had to retreat while covering it.
Qin Qiong saw that Gao Cheng was in a difficult position for a while, so he Mingjin collected his troops and arranged for the army to set up camp.
Shimazu of Satsuma Province is a cruel and vicious person, and the people of Chikushi Island secretly call him Shimazu evil ghost. He received a distress letter from Ryuzo Terao and Sagara Sadata, and secretly wondered if he could use this Nine Nations Alliance to realize his dream of dominating Tsukushima.
He hurriedly sent letters to Mori Tadamasa of Toyozen Province and Ito Yuhito of Hyuga Province and Hojo Tomotoki of Osumi Province, asking them to recruit the people of the whole country to Takashiro to help resist the Han army in the Central Plains.
These three countries were originally ordered by the Satsuma Kingdom, but after receiving the order, they really recruited troops on a large scale, and they gathered a total of 50,000 people to come to Takashiro to help the army.
Qin Qiong and Kan Ling led the army to attack for several days, but they still couldn't break through Gaocheng; Shimazu's long-ago reinforcements arrived here.
Takaka Yamada let out a long sigh of relief when he saw the reinforcements arrive, although the enemy did not break Takashiro; But they besieged the city, which was built on a hill, and the draft in the city became a problem.
There are many hot springs in Gaocheng, but the water here is salty and not suitable for direct drinking; On weekdays, they go to the river outside the city to provide water. Now that the enemy army is besieged, it is definitely impossible to get out, so I have to barely survive with those saline waters.
And the bows and crossbows of these people are really powerful, and they can easily shoot into the city from below, causing them a lot of casualties and psychological pressure.
When Shimazu arrived for a long time, they joined forces and had an army of 60,000, more than double that of the enemy. They finally walked out of the city, cracked the flag gate, and prepared to fight Qin Qiong and the others to the death.
Qin Qiong was eager for them to come out, and also led the team out of the camp, and the two sides set up a battlefield under Gaocheng. Shimazu Hisato led Mori Tadamasa of Bunzen Province and Yamada Takataka of Bungo Province to sit in the Chinese army, and arranged for Ito Yuhito of Hyuga Province and Hojo Tomotoki of Osumi Province to launch an attack on Qin Qiong for the left and right flanks.
Qin Qiong asked Kan Ling and Duan Zhixuan to each bring 5,000 men and horses to deal with the enemy's two flanks, and he led the remaining 16,000 troops to rush directly to Shimazu Jiuyuan.
Shimazu has never fought against the army of the Great Demon Kingdom at all, and his strength is also hearsay, so he doesn't believe it very much.
However, this fight was one-sided, and the samurai under his command were as powerless as pigs to be slaughtered. Especially Qin Qiong, Kan Leng, and Duan Zhixuan, these generals, were all in the ranks, and no one under them could stop them.
In a short time, his generals Shimazu Ihisa, Kamada Masakin, Murata Echizen, Honda Jinji, Kitago Hisamori, Usuki Zhenxu, Kuwano Harumoto, and Miike Zhenshi were all killed; His army was also almost average.
Where did Shimazu suffer this loss for a long time, others called the Shimazu devil the most ruthless, and roared, not only did not withdraw the troops, but instead threw his men into the battlefield, as if he wanted to make a desperate bet.
Qin Qiong was overjoyed when he saw it, and hurriedly ordered the middle troops to retreat back and lead the enemy to attack; Kan Ling and Duan Zhixuan on both sides were desperately assaulting. The formation of the Great Demon Kingdom slowly turned into a pocket formation.
When Shimazu saw the enemy retreating, his face turned red with excitement, and he hurriedly ordered the army to attack, and even the devil army around him was lined up.
These devil armies only have more than 1,000 people, and they are the support of Shimazu for a long time to build Purple Island. Each of them is an executioner who kills without blinking; All of them are tall and powerful, and a big knife in their hands is powerful to build Purple Island.
His military advisor, Kakukuma Mountain Sect, saw that it was not good, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him: "My lord, you see that the enemy is retreating without chaos, and the formation remains intact, this is a trick to lure the enemy; Please take the warriors back now! We're almost surrounded. ā
Shimazu Kuyuan woke up to his eyes and looked left and right in a cold sweat, he ordered Hirozen Mori Tadamasa and Bungo Yamada Takataka to resist the enemy left and right, and ordered Hojo Tomotoki of Osumi Province to continue to pursue Qin Qiong's troops; He himself and his hardcore ally Hyuga Kuni, Yuhito Ito, quietly retreated to Takashiro.
As soon as Qin Qiong saw that the enemy had retreated, he knew that he couldn't take Gaocheng today, so he ordered the flag to move; Kan Ling and Duan Zhixuan received orders to surround Hirozen Mori Tadamasa and Bungo Yamada Takataka and Hojo Tomotoki of Osumi Province with a total of 20,000 people.
At a glance, these three knew that they had fallen for Shimazu for a long time, and they were scolding at that time; But he was already surrounded by the enemy and had no choice but to resist desperately. Not long after, his generals Hoshino Jintoyo, Kimura Zhenhide, Yamada Zhenshu, Kamaike Kanmori, Saeki Yukyo, and Saito Jinmi were killed one after another.
This battle lasted until nearly evening, and it was still possible to resist so desperately when it was surrounded; Qin Qiong also secretly admired these Japanese people.
In the end, Takaka Yamada, Tadamasa Mori, and Tomotoshi Hojo were all confined to a small hill, with less than 500 soldiers left around. Qin Qiong ordered to stop the attack, and he urged the war horse to take a few steps forward and said, "The three of you are gone, if you don't surrender, when will you wait?" ā
Yamada Takataka smiled and said: "You invade my land, kill my people, and rob my property; It's wishful thinking to make us surrender! If we surrender, how can we see Amaterasu after we die? There is no chance of being born again. It's just death, what's so terrible? ā
As he spoke, he began to sing loudly, and Mori Tomotada and Hojo Tomotoki slowly echoed him; The three guys who used to have all kinds of contradictions and intrigues actually sang happily hand in hand; Slowly, hundreds of samurai on the hill began to sing along.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the hills, a reddish gold; Like a sacred earth stained red with blood.
After Yamada finished singing, he suddenly pulled out the short knife in his waist, stabbed it into the abdomen, and then slashed hard, and the blood spurted wildly, and all the internal organs flowed to the ground. The rest of the people followed suit, and in a short time, there was only a pile of ugly corpses left on the mountain.
Qin Qiong let out a long sigh, what kind of perverted country is this, what kind of group of perverted human beings, can they be domesticated?
Although he won the battle, Qin Qiong's heart was as heavy, and he ordered the soldiers to bury the dead bodies and return them to the military tent.
Kan Ling saw that Qin Qiong's mood was not high and smiled: "Dashuai, are you still feeling for today's events?" I don't think you need to worry, they foolish fellows have been tied hand and foot; Our propaganda team, on the other hand, is the one that is best at agitating and transforming others. Behind them is their battlefield. There is a specialization in the art industry, let's take care of the war, and let the demon king handle the rest! ā
Qin Qiong thought so, and cheered up again and said: "Zhengde is right, the enemy's 60,000 army has been wiped out by us, more than 20,000, and nearly 40,000 pairs have returned to Gaocheng, what is the way for you to break through this city." ā
Everyone looked at each other at the tall and tall city of the city, and there was nothing they could do for a while. Duan Zhixuan said: "Dashuai, I have an idea, how about you take a look?" ā
Qin Qiong was overjoyed and said, "Zhixuan, hurry up." ā
Duan Zhixuan said: "Dashuai, this high castle is owned by Yamada Takataka, and now Yamada Takataka was left outside by Shimazu for a long time and died in battle." This Shimazu will definitely find a way to appease the people in the city, and we can take advantage of his unfamiliarity with the people so and so and so. Qin Qiong and the others listened to it and thought it was true.
The next day, Shimazu Hisato, who had already decided to defend to the death, suddenly received a report that the invaders had retreated? This made Shimazu Hisato and Ito Yuhito and the think tank Kakukuma Sect puzzled.
Shimazu hurriedly dispatched spies to investigate, and they ran for dozens of miles, but there was no trace of the enemy. Shimazu Jiuyuan was still not at ease, and closed the city gate with one finger to prevent everyone from going out to prevent a sudden sneak attack.
Three days passed, and there was no movement at all. The residents of the city began to complain that the water in the city was bitter and difficult to swallow, and there was not enough firewood for cooking and cooking, and some people had begun to eat cold food.
