Chapter 537: Hojo is furious

rumble

Kasugayama Castle's gate was suddenly blasted open by gunpowder

The soldiers of the Takeda military banner who gathered outside the gate shouted and rushed towards the main gate

On the arrows on both sides of the gate, the remnants of the Uesugi army went crazy and shot all the arrow projectiles in despair

From time to time, Takeda soldiers fell due to stray bullets

But this casualty stopped the onslaught of nearly 1,000 soldiers of the Takeda Army

Honmaru, who broke into Kasugayama Castle, surrounded the Goten, Bishamondo, the castle tower, the Takeda Army, and the Uesugi samurai retainers, fighting layer by layer

Puff puff

From time to time, the sound of the tip of a knife breaking through a human body could be heard

The corpses were stacked layer by layer

Honmaru's battle only lasted for a moment, and the shouting and killing had stopped

In front of the broken Honmaru Gate, Li Xiao entered a place leading to the palace with his sword, and the side was already lightly dragged to both sides, and the corpse had cleared a way

One by one, the corpses were piled up and piled up

Everywhere you look, there is flesh and blood on the wall

Halfway through the line, Li Xiao's shoes and socks had already become a blood-red

However, in one hour, the spring mountain castle had been taken by Li Xiao's Hida Echichu Legion

Along the way, due to the Kamishi Jingsheng, the main force was deployed under the Imperial Palace, and the army of Uesugi Jinghu fought to the death

As a result, the garrison of Kasuga Mountain Castle was insufficient, and Li Xiao's army attacked fiercely and with the cooperation of ninjas, they broke all the way to Kasuga Mountain Castle

It was only before arriving at Honmaru that the remnants of the Uesugi family were gathered together to resist stubbornly, which took some effort

In the end, Ohtani Heima ordered someone to blow up Otemon with gunpowder, and then attacked Honmaru

The palace is still the same, and the flag is still fluttering

Li Xiao walked through the Uesugi family palace to Bishamondo

There were more than a dozen monks and a huge coffin in the hall

Don't think about it, this is Uesugi Kenshin's coffin

The dispute between Kamishi Jingsheng and Uesugi Jinghu couldn't take care of burying Uesugi Kenshin for a while, and did a ritual for him

Li Xiao was silent, and asked the monk to be escorted aside, and he walked to Uesugi Kenshin's coffin for a while

Li Xiao couldn't help but think of what he would think if Uesugi Kenshin was still alive and knew that his bones were not cold, and the two sons rose up to seize the heir, and eventually caused a big chaos, leading to the collapse of the Uesugi family

Thinking of this, Li Xiao couldn't help but touch the coffin of Uesugi Qianxin, and was silent for a while in front of the coffin of the strongest enemy in his life

Report to the Lord

Li Xiao opened his eyes and turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

The samurai with a small flag lowered his head and said: Chaoyue Gong has led the main force of his family to break through the army of Kamishi Jingsheng and Uesugi Jinghu

The Imperial Hall on the east side of Kasugayama Castle

At this moment, the 20,000 soldiers of the Takeda Army under the command of Takeda Nobuyoshi rolled up a red tide like a torrent of the sluice gates, driving away the Echigo army

Whether it was Shangshan Jingsheng or Uesugi Jinghu, their tired army was driven by the Takeda army, like a panicked flock of sheep, and countless tigers and wolves could only flee for their lives

At this moment, Takeda Nobuyoshi, dressed in monk's robes, stood on the hillside and passed down one order after another

Don't take care of those ordinary ashigaru I'm just the head of the Echigo samurai

Don't want an ordinary samurai, the more famous the samurai, and even the head of the general, I have a heavy reward

In particular, I want the head of Kamikatsu Kasugi Keikatsu and the former Kanto Governor

Takeda Shinshiro said in a deep voice, with a decisive appearance of killing, where can there be the slightest compassion as a monk

On the plains, the cavalry regiment of the Takeda Army drove down from the top of the mountain like a landslide

These samurai on horseback didn't even want to be headed, but they slashed the remnants of the fleeing Uesugi army with their swords from behind with a hideous look on their faces

The corpses of the Uesugi soldiers were harvested one by one like rice and wheat

Takeda Nobuyoru finally couldn't look at it and said: Brother is okay, the Echigo army has been completely defeated, and there is no need to kill like this again

Takeda Nobuyoshi glanced at Takeda Nobuyo, shook his head, and said: Nobuyo, you don't understand, if you want to quickly pacify Echigo, you must cut down the grass and kill the corpses in front of you, and the mountains are all over the wilderness, and you are not afraid of killing more people here, and the more people you will kill in the future, the easier it will be to stabilize the future...,

Takeda Nobuyoru said helplessly: But I am worried that I will be hostile to Echigo if I kill too much

Takeda Nobuhiro smiled and said: Wrong, that is not enough to kill, did not kill them, I am afraid that when the family pacified Shinano, the brother's means did you forget how many wealthy families were killed, how many Jingguan were erected, how many people were sold to Jinshan to mine and die, and after that, Shinano was not pacified for his family

Takeda Nobuyoshi was speechless for a while when he heard this

Takeda Nobuhiro sighed and said: "Xinlian, I know your compassion, but what I do today is for the sake of my family, for the elder, for the dead brother and Shiro, so what is the matter of the many sins under this, if I go to the underworld in the future, I will suffer it alone

Yes, all of this is what I, Takeda Chaoyue, did alone, and inflicted retribution on me

Takeda Nobuyoshi looked at the battlefield in front of him, although it was bloody, but his gaze was peaceful

Under the mountain castle of Kasuga

The remnant sun hung in the sky, and the blood-colored sunset stained the horizon red

Li Xiao led the Hida Echichu Army to welcome Takeda Nobuyoshi Takeda's army into the city under the city

Takeda Nobufan, Takeda Nobuyo, and they didn't dare to slack off when they saw that Li Xiao was personally out to greet them, and after a certain distance, they dismounted and walked in front of Li Xiao

Takeda Nobuhiro smiled and said to Li Xiaoyan: Major General Konoe's family can destroy Echigo Uesugi Quannai your strategy

Li Xiao smiled and said: Chaoyue Gong can't say that, although the shirt Jingsheng, Uesugi Jinghu and the former steward leader are all dead, but Echigo is not yet included in the family

Takeda Nobufan listened to Li Xiaozhi's words, understood what he meant, waved his hand and said with a smile: Don't worry, I have everything arranged to let us have a glimpse of the majestic city of Kasuga Mountain Castle

Seeing that Xinfan was so confident, Li Xiao didn't speak, but just followed Takeda Xinfan along the horse road to the city

The news of the Takeda Army's capture of Kasugayama Castle flew back to the Hojo family

In the middle of Odawara Castle

After seeing Takeda Nobuyoshige's betrayal of the previous covenant with him, he abandoned the Hojo family and sent a large army to attack Echigo

Dao Temple Zhengfan's face was all iron-blue, and then an incomparable humiliation and anger surged into his heart

This is a shameless betrayal, a betrayal of the Hojo family

The Takeda family trampled on the covenant for the second time (to be continued, if you like this work, you are welcome to come (.) Vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation)
