With Li Huamei's continuous deployment of troops, although Nagashima Ichishozong had 100,000 people, he could only resist desperately in the city in the face of the attack of the Oda army that could fight well, especially the fierce generals such as Maeda Keiji.
Although it has always been said to be Nagashima Castle, Nagashima Castle is actually the strongest castle among the castles controlled by Ichimune, and it is located on a small island in the archipelago of the Kiso River Kawaguchi in Ise Province, and is the military base of Ichimune in Ise. For this place, Oda Yoshinobu named it directly after the bitter hand, and named it the Long Island Islands.
Before Oda Yoshinobu came to Ise, Nagashima Ichijomune's power was far beyond the Nagashima Islands. To the west, it occupies five castles in Ise Province, including Otorii, Katori, Yachojima, Nakae, and Kuwana, and spans several prefectures in Ise. To the north is the castle of Kogie, and to the east is also its territory.
However, after Oda Yoshinobu became the ruler of Ise and the Oda family Kamiraku, for various reasons, Nagashima Isōmune was forced to retreat into the Nagashima Islands. At that time, it was only because Oda Yoshinobu wanted to force the believers of the Ichijo sect to change their faith, and at the same time, he was also worried that once the Nagashima Ichijo sect launched a rebellion, it would not have too much impact.
And now, the effect has appeared, with a strong force and navy, the Oda army easily suppressed it in the Long Island Islands. At the same time, a fierce attack was launched on the various castles in the archipelago.
"I believe it won't be long before these cities can be breached." Shigeharu Takenaka said lightly. Speaking of which, at first, Shigeharu Takenaka and the others were really frightened by the fierce attack methods of the followers of the Tsuyoshi sect, but after reacting, the Oda army still easily gained an advantage by relying on more factors such as equipment, samurai ability, and training. This made Shigeharu Takenaka and the others breathe a long sigh of relief, because if they couldn't even defeat this group of unorganized, undisciplined, unequipped, and only desperate peasant soldiers, even if Oda Yoshinobu came back and didn't punish them, they wouldn't have the face to continue to hold so many.
"Yes, but what about after the siege?" Li Huamei frowned and looked at the map and said, "These people are all fanatical believers of the Sect, and at this time, Honganji is an enemy of the family. It's not easy to recruit them. ”
"What Master Li said is very true, and even if we surrender them, where can we send them? 100,000 is not a small number. Fernand said with a frown.
Yes, they were already thinking about the aftermath of the war, and in their opinion, it was much more difficult than breaching those fortifications. Belch...... Well, in fact, they themselves didn't give any orders, because of the strength of Tian Qingci and others in the past, there was really nothing to worry about attacking these cities, not to mention that there was a navy led by Da Zhuhe to support them at sea.
After thinking about it for a long time, the three of them didn't think of any good ideas, so they could only order that the believers of the Ichikoji sect should be rushed to Nagashima Castle first, and then deal with them after Oda Yoshinobu returned. At this time, they had already received information from, but because Nagashima had launched a rebellion, they did not have the strength to help.
At the same time, Osaka Castle.
"Is this Osaka Castle?!" Shigehide Suzuki looked at the giant city in front of him in shock and exclaimed. It's not that he hasn't seen those gorgeous and sturdy giant cities, and Ishiyama Honganji Temple is a famous fortified castle in the world, but compared to Osaka Castle, those castles are a little unqualified. But if he knew that the construction of this Osaka Castle had not even been completed, would he be scared to death?
According to Oda Yoshinobu's original idea, he planned to build a castle that was even larger than Chang'an Castle with Osaka Castle as the center. In the words of Oda Yoshinobu, it is the area that the craft does not work to make up. Therefore, the predetermined area alone is more than 200 square kilometers, and you must know that the area of Chang'an City is less than 90 square kilometers. For this reason, Oda Yoshinobu moved almost half of the population of Anno and Ichishi Counties to other places.
With such a huge scale, no matter how rich Oda Yoshinobu was, it was impossible to build it immediately, especially Li Huamei and others couldn't understand why the city was built so big. After all, such a large city is not easy to defend. So far, only the castle tower of Osaka Castle and the outer ring of the castle wall have been built, and there are only a few places such as Osaka Port.
But that's all, but it's enough to amaze the two hillbillies, Shigehide Suzuki and Shigeaki Suzuki. However, the residents of Osaka Castle don't pay much attention to their appearance, because every outsider who has just come here will always stand stupidly outside the city and marvel for a long time, and they have long been used to it.
I don't know how long it took for them to come back to their senses, "I really don't know how His Highness Shura built such a gorgeous and huge city." Shigehide Suzuki said with a sigh. As he spoke, he took Suzuki Shigeki and walked towards the city gate.
"Huh? Shigehide Suzuki and Shigetsu Suzuki? Ning Ning looked at the ninja in front of him strangely, obviously not expecting that these two people from the Suzuki family would suddenly come over and ask to see him. After Li Huamei and others set out on the expedition, the affairs of Osaka Castle were handed over to Ning Ning and Lilu.
As for the two of Suzuki Shigehide, whether it is Lilu or Ning Ning, they are naturally no strangers, after all, one is the director of intelligence, and the other is the director of business, and the two will naturally pay more attention to the important figures of other forces.
"Forget it, let them in." Ning Ning thought about it for a long time, and she didn't think about why they came here, so she planned to meet them first. Well? Don't you worry that they have something up your sleeve? Hawkers, if Shigehide Suzuki can assassinate Ning Ning and Lilu under the protection of dozens of Shinigami and ninjas, then this guy's martial arts may have to be close to Oda Yoshinobu, right?
Not long after, Suzuki Shigehide and Suzuki Shigechao met the two daughters of Ning Ning under the leadership of the Grim Reaper. Well, although Shigehide Suzuki had long known that there were many Ji samurai under the command of Oda Yoshinobu, he was still stunned when he saw that the people who met him turned out to be two women, and they were two stunning women.
"Is there anything you two are here? You must know that the Suzuki family is the enemy of the family at this time......" Ning Ning didn't pay attention to the stunned eyes of the two, and asked directly.
Hearing this, Suzuki Shigehide immediately came back to his senses and said with some trepidation, "My brother and I have left the Suzuki family, hoping to become the retainers of His Highness Shura!" "Well, the reason why he was panicked was naturally not because Ning Ning had any domineering spirit, but because he was worried that his performance just now would attract Ning Ning's disgust. Because in his opinion, these two women must be the women of Oda Yoshinobu.
