In the three days since Kojima Sadako's failure to persuade the Hojo clan to surrender, the docks near Odawara Castle have been busy.

The dock had been under the control of the Kwantung coalition forces during the siege of Odawara, and after three months, it finally came into play.

Again and again, the ships went back and forth between the docks and the huge fleet on the sea, and everyone only saw that the ships came back from the sea with a very deep draft, but they did not know what they were carrying.

After the "goods" were unloaded from the docks, they were escorted into the camp by Echigo mounted samurai surrounded by the Rose Knights.

These heavy "cargoes" are so large that they can be seen even from the walls of Odawara Castle. You can see it, but you can't touch it...... The ninjas in the Wind Demon were ordered by Hojo Shiyasu to approach this strange batch of "goods" for two consecutive nights, and they all returned with a feather.

Not only did they hide the Hojo Army, but even most of the Kwantung Coalition Army hid the true face of this mysterious cargo.

It wasn't until the morning three days later that the coalition forces were arrayed under the city for the first time, ready to attack the city!

This move shocked the Hojo family, and many generals led by Hojo Shiyasu climbed the arrow tower to watch the battle before the battle.

Taiyuan Xuezhai was also among them, and behind him stood Matsudaira Motoshin and Anhara Tadashi.

Viewed from above, the Kyokan under Odawara Castle and the Kwantung coalition are clearly visible.

The strangest thing is that about 200 steps away from Odawara Castle, there is a row of "things", and this row of things is covered with cloth, so that people cannot see the real face.

"Yuanxin, can you guess what those things are?"

Xue Zhai asked, pointing to the row of things in front of the coalition formation.

Matsudaira Motoshin pursed his thick lips and shook his head.

"Yukisai-sama knows?"

Zhongyin was also curious.

The Kwantung coalition army besieged the city for three months, and since they have the confidence to attack the city, there must be no more than two possibilities:

If it weren't for their luck before they withdrew, or they really had the strength to rely on and were confident that they would be able to capture Odawara.

Since the Kwantung Coalition Army has put out such a row of things under the city, it must be a secret weapon?

What can break the walls of Odawara Castle?

Anhara Tadayin and Matsudaira Motoshin couldn't figure it out, but Yukisai suddenly spoke:

"Five years ago, a Portuguese merchant ship anchored in Bungo in Kyushu fired a cannon salute at a Catholic church, and a loud explosion was heard in the castle. Otomo Yoshitomi, the governor of the Otomo family, was shocked and went to watch...... Call it, the collapse of the country! ”

"I have a big tube in my hand, I have it in the world!"

Sasa Naruma drew his sword and opened the curtain of the cannon in the center, and the artillery elsewhere also ripped the cover away.

A hundred cannons lined up in front of the Kwantung Coalition Army, the all-metal cannon body reflected cold glow in the sunlight, and the swarthy muzzle looked extremely deep, like a monster that could devour heaven and earth.

"Please, look ahead! The collapse of the country of my Echigo Nagao family! ”

Sister Jinghu, who was in cahoots with Cheng Zheng, called all the leaders of the Donghao clan over and fired more than a hundred cannons in front of everyone as if showing off her wealth.

Yoshiaki Satake, Yoshiyao Satomi and others changed color when they saw it.

Of course, they have also heard of the "collapse of the country", but this is the first time they have met.

The muzzle of an iron cannon is so small that it can kill a strong samurai with one shot, I don't know how terrifying these "national collapses" will be?

The two looked at each other, and they both read the horror in each other's eyes.

They were shocked not only that the Nagao family had the ultimate weapon of mass destruction, but also that Nagao Terutora and Sasa Narumasa were ambitious.

There have long been rumors that Nagao Huihu is about to inherit the position of Kanto leader, and now she has played a big game again, so that the Kanto Hao clan can see the firearms of the Nagao family, isn't it just to give the Kanto group of heroes a preventive shot, so that they can obediently obey the order in the future?

"Shoot at the target - Odawara Castle Wall! Each part adjusts the angle of shooting freely! ”

The head of the artillery in charge of the actual command was shouting and shouting, but Nagao Terutora sent Kojima Sadako to the castle of Odawara to persuade him to surrender for the last time:

"Hojo Shiyasu, it's too late for you to surrender now! Otherwise, you'll die without a place to bury! ”

Kojima Sadako's voice was loud enough, and for a while, the generals of the Hojo family, standing at the head of the city, heard it clearly.

Three days ago, Kojima's "threat" seemed to them to be nothing more than arrogant words.

But just three days later, no one thought that Kojima was talking nonsense.

This is indeed a threat!

But Kojima Sadako's words fell, and Hojo Shiyasu shouted at the head of the castle:

"If you want to attack the city, come and attack it!"

Kojima Sadako didn't say anything more, and returned to the formation on horseback.

"Ignition!"

More than a hundred cannons ignited the fuse at the same time.

"Launch!"

Bang bang!

The artillery position suddenly exploded into a thick cloud of smoke, choking many Hao clan leaders coughing.

More than 100 cannonballs roared in, shattering the towering arrow towers outside Odawara Castle and smashing heavily into the tall earthen walls, smashing out pits and cracks.

Hojo Shiyasu and the others had just slipped back from the arrow tower, and when they saw that the place where they were standing was shattered at this moment, everyone was shocked, and they felt their feet tremble.

It's not safe on the city walls either, keep withdrawing!

Except for Ashigaru, who had to be on the front line, all the high-ranking generals withdrew Ninomaru and even Honmaru, and the walls were not safe, and neither was Sannomaru behind the walls - just now, in the first wave of bombardment, several projectiles crossed the walls and smashed into Sannomaru's house.

Hojo stood in the towering castle tower of Odawara Castle, his worries growing in his heart.

The reason why he told Kojima Sadako so stubbornly, "If you want to attack the city, come and attack it", in fact, it was not all said to the Kwantung coalition army.

What he was afraid of was that if he delayed for a while, the fighting spirit that had been gathered in the city would be weakened again.

But...... The big tube of the longtail family is so crazy and cool to hang and blow up the sky, even if they have the fighting spirit, can they stop it?

Even if Shiyasu took all the cowardly generals in the castle into custody, even if he made the entire defenders of Odawara Castle defend the castle to the death...... Can they really stop it?

The big tube is roaring, and the city is crying.

Odawara Castle, which was built by the Hojo family for decades, was once impossible to conquer in the Kanto region.

At this time, it also becomes vulnerable.

Although the double-layered earthen can't prevent most attacks, only the large cylinder can't prevent it.

It can even be said that ...... Throughout the Warring States period, no matter how strong the castle was, it could not withstand the destruction of cannons.

With more than 100 cannons from Sasa Narimasa, I don't know how long Odawara Castle can hold out?

The bombardment continued until the evening of the same day, and a section of the wall on the north side of Odawara Castle was completely shattered!

That night, Hojo once again held an emergency battle meeting in the castle tower of Odawara Castle.
