Chapter 15: The Siege of Ishikawa
The Sanhe River in autumn would have been a good spot, but in the future world, there are many wilderness inns here, although the prices are high. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Lorraine can see all kinds of envious, jealous and hateful beautiful men from magazines, and of course, there are also popular rape incidents.
But none of this has happened, and the Sanhe River in 1830 is still in a state of desolation.
Not to mention, this is also the front line of the war between the Uesugi family and the Oda family.
As the logistics gradually arrived, Nobunaga sent a large number of rangers to scout for information and determined that the female tiger's reinforcements were still far away in Owari.
At this time, there was no strong reinforcement outside the Ishikawa Fortress, and there were no heavy troops inside, how could 1,100 soldiers fight against the Plum Blossom Banner army!
"Lord Lorraine! Nobunaga has just announced the order of attack, and we are going to attack the western wall! ”
"West...... Over there......"
Lorraine looked at the goal of his mission, and the road to the city wall was not smooth at all, and after crossing the Sanhe River, there was an unsheltered river beach.
If the enemy had placed a squad of shooters there, it would have killed a single soldier in a matter of minutes.
Looking back at the Eastern Expeditionary Force and the Dongying New Army waiting for orders, even the veterans were a little scared, let alone those recruits.
"Hey, now I have to bite the bullet."
"My lord, what kind of son of heaven can you summon, it's better to come and cover with some firepower, right?"
In response to the officer's question, Lorraine felt a stomachache, "Do you think I don't want to?" It's not Edo again, so there's not enough time for me to adjust the direction of my mana, and I don't have any more materials, so why waste precious mana on the battlefield!? ”
“…… Sorry, I was reckless. ”
Seeing the officer retreat in shame, Lorraine gasped a little weakly, not because of the bullshit just now.
As the only spell support unit in the Expeditionary Force (no mage wants to make extra money with him), it is essential to retain the necessary mana to support the soldiers at all times.
As for the ability of the Son of Heaven, try not to let the people of Dongying see it, lest the girl have any strange ideas.
The small magic factory in the concession alone made it hard for him to build a position so hard that it was better to let the soldiers send him to death......
Anyway, it was the Dongying people who died.
For the commander, such an idea is completely heresy, but it is a pity that only shameless scum who are greedy for life and afraid of death can live well, of course, at the cost of causing heavy casualties to the soldiers or becoming the same kind.
At this moment, there was a sound of horns, which was a reminder to Lorraine that in this direction, the manager had launched an offensive horn, and it was time to start attacking.
"I've shown them the magic communicator, why do you still use horns?"
"Maybe it's Dongying's tradition, don't they also have a yin and yang talisman that can be contacted remotely? I haven't seen much of them using ......."
"Forget it." The backward communication methods of the Dongying people, Lorraine didn't want to comment, and turned directly to face his soldiers.
"Alright, boys, the safe training phase is over, and now it's time to put your results to the test."
Lorraine pulled out the Toei Command Knife that Nobunaga had given him, which was said to be the blade of an oriental warrior made by a famous craftsman, and pointed at the western wall of Ishikawa Fortress in the distance.
"Your goal is to capture the western wall, with the new army in the east taking the lead, and the Brittan army providing fire support and supervising the war...... See any guy who doesn't obey the order, just cut it! ”
"Yes!" The answer to him was naturally the old subordinates, the Eastern Expeditionary Force were all war maniacs, maybe they would be afraid, but the life and training of the army made them the most qualified soldiers, that is, to obey orders.
"Yes, understand, please rest assured, the little ones will work hard."
The new army is obviously not good, and what is called small?
The gang ruined the atmosphere as soon as they appeared, and Lorraine felt like she was instantly the hapless monster boss of the stories I'd heard these days.
I wish I didn't hit the street so much......
As for the Warlords, after cutting off so many heads, coupled with continuous brainwashing, they already have the appearance of the Brittany political commissar, and I really look forward to their results.
…… Forget it, don't look forward to it.
The crossing of the Sanhe River did run into a bit of trouble, and the defenders, hiding in the fortress, still sent a team of archers to attack halfway.
Although there are only fifty people......
In this wave of Lorraine's attack, the new army dispatched 2,000 men, the expeditionary force and the warlord team totaled 500, a total of 2,500 attack waves, and you sent 50 people to attack half-crossing?
Or use a bow and arrow, half of your opponents are holding new rifles, isn't it death?
In fact, there was no way for the defenders, after all, there were too few defenders of Ishikawa Fortress, and it was impossible to defend it in the face of the attack of Oda's army.
The defending generals have developed an excellent tactic that focuses on killing and injuring the enemy's living forces, and fights and retreats, that is, HIT&RUN tactics.
The question is, the most powerful long-range weapon they have at hand seems to be a handmade bow and arrow, right?
The range is only 65 paces.
It's not a match for rifles at all......
So when this squad of archers came to attack, Lorraine couldn't believe it.
And then - the new army rushed forward, the new army shouted a war cry, and the new army was defeated!!
"Make no mistake! Two thousand people crossed the river and were driven back by fifty people!! What about cover? Hurry up and shoot! ”
"General! The new army blocked the soldiers' view and couldn't shoot! ”
"Damn it, Warlord! Hurry up and suppress the new army, don't let them run around! ”
"The Overseers themselves have escaped!"
I can't bring it, such a garbage team, if I don't train for a year, Lorraine really doesn't know, what to rely on to make them muster up the courage to fight.
At this moment, the ghost girls quietly came to Lorraine's side.
"Lord Lorraine, you seem to be angry at the cowardice of mortals?"
"Yes, after training for so long, I can't help but fight at all, do you want me to use a charm spell??"
"The concubine has a way!"
"Huh?"
Lorraine looked at the ghost girls suspiciously, completely unable to understand why these ghost girls (indeed ghosts) were so confident.
When the new army ran back in frustration, and the unfriendly eyes of Nobunaga's heralds and expeditionary force officers really scared them.
But no one punished them, but the beautiful ghost girls and big sisters walked out and ......
Lorraine was dumbfounded, listening to the declaration of the ghost girls, what is the meaning of being able to enjoy the ghost girl's blissful feast after the siege, first come, first served, limited availability, and what is the all-night carnival?
These filthy things didn't sound reliable at all, and Lorraine's heart didn't fluctuate, and she even wanted to laugh a little.
The question is that the New Army believes this!!
"Oooo It's burning! For the Bliss! For the sake of the Lord! ”
"I can't take it anymore, charge! Ladies and gentlemen! Big deal, goodbye Takamagahara! ”
Well, it's one thing for Gao Tianyuan to see that if he can't see that, Lorraine is a little desperate.
Such an unlucky subordinate actually relies on the ghost girl's motivation to be motivated, and it is unheard of to blow up at all!
