373 Hokuriku lone wolf

There was an iron horse in front and a river in the back, and Zhang Zheng of the Shenbao clan was at a loss, and when he saw the corpses on the ground, his heart moved. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Throw all these corpses into the slippery river!"

The water is shallow and gentle, and as long as enough corpses are thrown into the river, a path can be piled up.

But Shen Bao Zhang didn't seem to take into account the feelings of everyone below.

"If you want to live, just do what I say!"

Seeing that his retainers and peasants and soldiers were all looking at each other, Zhang of the Shenbao clan yelled anxiously.

In order to be able to live, let those who die do something good. So these samurai and peasant soldiers started work one after another, after all...... It is not oneself who dies, and the person who is trampled and trapped in the mud at the bottom of the river is not himself, and if a person dies, he can still be used, which can be regarded as a real "dedication to the Lord's family".

The ashigaru people are quite comfortable with this kind of chores, and more importantly, in order to escape and survive, this last remaining straw has an unparalleled attraction to them.

The corpses were stacked on top of each other, head and foot were connected, and soon a "corpse bridge" was formed in the slippery river!

"Huh...... This Shenbao clan Zhang didn't pull out his sword to kill himself, but did this kind of heart-wrenching thing, which is really out of order. ”

In the distance, Sasa Narumasa sat on horseback, commenting on himself.

"Discipline is valuable, face is higher, if it is for survival, both can be thrown."

Oda Nobumasa shook his head and memorized a poem in Chinese, which made Sasa Narumasa laugh.

"This guy of the Shenbao clan, I'm a little curious, if he can survive this Vietnamese-Chinese battle, I will accept him as my retainer."

Sazuo Chengzheng looked like the eldest of the gods and the second of the two, and kept saying that he wanted the Shenbao clan Zhang to be a minister, but he didn't think about whether the Shenbao clan Zhang himself was willing.

And the Jimbo clan, who was far away in the middle of the slippery river, also felt a strange inner throbbing.

Something seemed to beckon him to leave the slippery river and rush past the cavalry of the Bow Lodge.

Behind the black five hundred cavalry, something was probably waiting for him.

If I had to describe it, I might say that there was a power that could lead the Jimbo clan to move forward in this troubled world.

"Lord, get out of the way!"

When a loyal retainer saw him push him away, he staggered and almost tripped over the corpse in the river, but the loyal retainer had a two-foot-long spear pierced his back, and blood gushed out.

After he blocked a shot for Zhang, he fell face down into the murky water.

"Withdraw! Evacuate! ”

The Jimbo clan was frightened and hurried across the slippery river surrounded by the guards.

As soon as they arrived on the east bank of the slippery river, another soldier pointed to the dust raised in the east, and everyone's hearts sank.

Heaven will die for me!

Shen Bao sat slumped on the drenched riverbank, his face already gray.

"Look! Look! ”

The soldiers beside him shouted excitedly.

Shi Zhang squinted his eyes and looked over, and finally saw the other party's flag clearly.

Vertical two lead two? Isn't this the family crest of the Jimbo family?

"It's the people of Jue! The reserve of the majority of people has arrived! ”

Shen Bao Zhang's eyes widened, and he said incredulously, he himself had persuaded Shen Bao Jue to delay the march, but he was stunned by a surprise attack by Gong Zhuang Zhong, and he didn't think about it.

After crossing the river, Shi Zhang immediately ordered a formation to be on guard, and although he was about to join forces with Shen Bao Jueguang, he had to guard against the Gong Zhuang people who might cross the river.

After a while, Shen Bao Jueguang led the crowd to come, and when he saw Shi Zhang's embarrassed appearance, Shen Bao Jueguang was also shocked, and grabbed Shen Bao Zhang and asked:

"Is the other party Gong Zhuangzhong? How many troops are there? ”

"Yes, there are five hundred riders!"

Looking from afar, he naturally saw the corpses on the other side of the river and in the river, and he also noticed the horseback team on the opposite side that exuded invisible coercion.

"With the current situation, whoever crosses the river first will lose, so let's stand by and wait for the opportunity!"

"Your Excellency!"

Shen Bao Jueguang ordered people to set up a circle with strong defense, and concentrated all the pikemen outside, making the whole circle look more like a hedgehog.

The Shenbao clan Zhang was uneasy in the array, faintly expecting the changes he wanted from the Gong Zhuang people on the opposite side, and he was worried that if these more than 1,000 foot light could not stop the five hundred iron horses of the Gong Zhuang people, wouldn't it be a big deal?

The five hundred horsemen on the opposite side slowly stopped, and after wandering for a quarter of an hour on the west bank of the slippery river, they formed a black snake and headed southwest.

Everyone in the Shenbao Army breathed a sigh of relief, but neither the Shenbao clan Zhang nor the Shenbao Jueguang took it lightly.

"Use the corpse bridge to cross the river carefully!"

More than 1,000 Shenbao troops cautiously crossed the river to form a formation, and until the whole army crossed the river, the Gong Zhuang people did not attack again.

The Jimbo clan explained the details of the previous battle, and after the merger, a team of 1,600 people entered Toyama Castle before sunset.

When entering Toyama Castle, Jimbo Kakuhiro really found that Jimbo Nagaju had never been out of the city, and had been waiting for help after the death of Terashima Ichijo, and he couldn't help but feel relieved, and even took two points of praise for Jimbo Zhang.

After discussing with each other, the three decided to continue to hold on to Toyama Castle and at the same time send rangers to reconnoiter the whereabouts of the Bow Shozhong.

No matter how the two-legged ones run, they can't outrun the four-legged ones, and if Shen Bao Jueguang and the others have the talent to reach the sky, they may be able to use infantry to cooperate with each Chengqi and force the Gong Zhuang people to death step by step.

But Jueguang is not a talented person, how can he capture the movements of the erratic Gong Zhuangzhong?

In the days that followed, news of the attack on the hinterland of the Jimbo army continued to arrive, and messengers and letters asking for help were sent to Toyama Castle and to the camp of the Jimbo clan outside Matsukura Castle.

In just three days, the Japanese Jiangcheng was attacked! Mizumi Castle is attacked! Takaoka Castle is under attack! Fuguang City is attacked! Masuyama Castle is under attack!

The news of the attack on the rear city came one after another, and even disrupted the rhythm of the siege of the god protection chief.

That night, Changzhi called his trusted old island town over again.

Looking at the large stack of letters marked with cinnabar marks on the table, Kojima was relieved.

"What is it...... Will there be so many urgent papers? ”

"It's the Gong Zhuang people, who rely on their horses to wreak havoc in the rear, and have burned down more than a dozen towns."

The voice of the Divine Protection Commander was slightly gloomy, and his eyes were even more terrifying, and Kojima Zhizhen only realized at this time that his lord no longer knew when, and his eyes were bloodshot.

"When did the Gong Zhuang have so many horses? Could it be ...... Yasuyin Shiina fattened all the war horses? ”

Linked to the alliance between the Tohi family and the Shiina family in this battle, Kojima quickly thought of this possibility.

"In addition, although Tu Fei Zhengfan is strong, I don't think he has such a ability to call the wind and rain...... If I were Yasuyin Shiina, I would definitely not want to hand over the war horse to Tufei, don't you say? ”

"Masaka...... What does the lord mean that someone from the Uesugi family is interfering? ”

"You say, who is the most similar to the fighting style of the cavalry team of Gong Zhuangzhong?"

The words of the chief of the god protection seemed to suddenly light a lamp for the town of Kojima, and the doubts that he had been thinking about for days were solved.

"Could it be...... Known as the lone wolf of the North Continent - Sasa Seimasa?! (To be continued.) )
