Shuichi Hasegawa was supported by Yoshimaru and Yamaguchi, standing within the wall of fire, old tears in his eyes......

Now, in addition to himself and a few saddle war horses, there are only ten people left in the wall of fire, all of whom are injured Oda Gunshigaru, and the remaining two, Kazuki is a woman, and Matsukura Shigenobu is brave, but he was also bitten by the wolf in many places.

Outside the wall of fire, there were corpses that had been bitten to death by wolves, some of them had their bellies torn open, a pile of intestines was exposed, some of them had been bitten through their throats, and they were still gushing blood......

The afterimage of this scene, reflected in the eyes of Hasegawa Shuichi, is not the saddest thing for him, what he is most sad about now is that the young master is still deep in the wolves, and he will not be able to support it, and he is in danger of being buried in the wolf's belly at any time.

This group of wolves is very strange, not to mention the innocent attack crowd, at this time they all besieged Oda Katsucho and Long Shaocong, no matter how they released their arrows, the evil wolves also ignored it, under the leadership of the white-haired wolf king, they attacked the two fiercely, regardless of fatigue, regardless of casualties.

Maybe it was the burning grain cart that made them afraid and didn't dare to attack again, but in this way, it was equivalent to harming the young master in disguise, and of course, Long Shaocong, but compared with Oda Katsunaga, Long Shaocong's life was as insignificant as an ordinary soldier in his mind.

At this time, Shuichi Hasegawa, like a wood carving, stood there stupidly, looking at the tragedy he had never experienced in his life, and muttered, "What should I do...... What to do? Be sure to rush out, rush out...... Rescue the young master...... Young master, it was the old minister who hurt you...... The lord and the minister are incompetent, not only failed to keep the grain and grass, but even your son ......" In front of everyone, he actually let go and cried.

"Humph! As the main general, mother-in-law, indecisive, Oda Nobunaga's subordinates, how can there be such a wreck like you! It's really annoying to me! It was Shigenobu Matsukura who spoke.

He couldn't stand it from the sidelines, and at the same time he was infected by the bravery of the two young men fighting side by side and killing the wolf, and said sharply: "You wait here, I'll go and rescue them back!" ”

After speaking, he couldn't talk to everyone, his feet were forced, and he jumped out of the wall of fire with a "poof".

However, it was not a blind act of the moment that he went to save people, but he did not carry a gun or a knife, but picked up a thick burning branch on the ground, danced, and went straight to the wolves.

The place where they were stationed was an open field in the woods, and fortunately there was no strong wind tonight, otherwise they would have been able to drive away the wolves and would have perished in the fire.

Long Shaocong's legs have already been bitten in two places, and one was cut by the claws of the evil wolf, which made a deep cut; And Oda Katsunaga is not much better than him, and he has been injured in many places, but fortunately, the injuries of both are not fatal. Now, the two of them, only by leaning on each other, can they support each other and not fall, so to speak, both of them have reached the point of exhaustion, and in a few moments, they will be buried in the wolf's belly.

"Two little brothers, don't be afraid, I'm Matsukura Shigenobu!"

Long Shaocong and Oda Katsucho were both startled when they heard this shout, and when they turned their heads, they saw a big man dancing a burning wooden stick into the wind, and rushed directly into the wolves as if he was holding a hot wheel.

It is the nature of wolves to be afraid of fire, and at this time, the evil wolf of Oda Katsunaga, who was tearing at Long Shaocong, saw such a fire man who seemed to fall from the sky, and immediately scattered and ran away, running slowly, and the wolf's buttocks were instantly ignited, and he fled into the depths of the woods as if he had a smoke.

The white-haired wolf king was still there with a "whining" roar, trying to stop his companion from drinking, but to little avail.

Oda Katsucho saw that this wolf was so rampant, and he was about to pass with his sword, but he was stopped by Long Shaocong and shouted: "Young master, withdraw quickly, otherwise when the evil wolf comes back, you and I will really die here." ”

At this time, Matsukura Shigenobu had already rushed to the two of them and shouted, "Two little brothers, come with me!" ”

He opened the way with a fire stick in front of him, driving away the wolves that came up to bite sporadically, and Long Shaocong and Oda Katsucho supported each other and followed closely behind.

When the three of them approached the wall of fire, Yoshimaru and Yamaguchi immediately ran out and helped Ryu Shaocong and Oda Katsunaga into the wall of fire.

When Hasegawa Shuichi saw the young master return safely, his hanging heart suddenly let go of a lot, and his tearful face also showed a sense of relief.

The light pull also eliminated the frost condensation, showing a gentle and considerate side, helping the two to bandage their wounds, and the handsome face showed a nervous look. When Aoki Saemon saw this, he was slightly jealous, and secretly wondered if if I was also bitten by a wolf, would she also help me bandage my wound so gently......

Long Shaocong saw Matsukura Shigenobu standing next to him, still panting, and said to him, "Thank you Engong for coming to the rescue." ”

Matsukura Shigenobu waved his hand and said loudly: "I respect heroes the most in my life, and tonight I saw two little brothers killing wolves side by side, showing heroism. ”

Speaking of this, he turned to Oda Katsucho and said: "Oda Nobunaga's son is amazing, he is a character, I came this time to take your life, intercept your grain, grass, iron cannons, this is the first purpose, stop here, I don't want to kill you again; As for the second one, hehe, although it didn't reach me, it was also cremated to ashes. After saying that, he laughed, and he didn't have the sadness of being in prison at all, which is very different from Shuichi Hasegawa.

When Oda Katsucho heard this, he felt that this person was talking very interestingly, although he was an enemy, but he also admired his skill and courage in his heart, so he smiled slightly and didn't say anything.

But Long Shaocong next to him slapped his thigh and said "oops", which turned out to be just on his wound.

Just when the people around him looked at him with idiotic eyes, thinking that his brain was in the water, Long Shaocong suddenly laughed and said: "Stupid, we are really stupid, we don't use iron cannons, but we want to use knives to kill wolves, it's really tyrannical!" ”

Without waiting for others to reflect, Matsukura Shigenobu took the lead in replying: "Hey, little brother is smart, why didn't I think of it, I only know how to use brute force!" ”

When Long Shaocong heard this compliment, he scratched his head in shame, and thought to himself, I am not very smart, but now I think about it, I am already a stupid person who has opened the door and is stupid to the point of being home.

Just when everyone's faces showed a little joy, Hasegawa Shuichi said: "No, this is the lord's order, the sharp weapon to attack Tsutsui Castle, we must send them safely to Yamato Province!" ”

As soon as these words came out, one person was immediately annoyed, and this person scolded: "Ruzi Xiaoer, Lao Tzu saved the young master of your family, you are still thinking about my lord Gongchengchi, believe it or not, Lao Tzu will kill you now!" After speaking, he was about to pounce on him with a knife, but Long Shaocong next to him combined the strength of Yoshimaru and Yamaguchi to stop him.

Hasegawa Shuichi still wanted to reason with him, but was stopped by Oda Katsuchoichi waving his hand, "Uncle Shuichi, I think it's the plan for now, let's get through the current difficulties first." Rest assured, I will bear the blame from the Father. ”

In order to complete the mission, even at the moment of life and death, Hasegawa Shuichi did not give up the vehicle carrying iron cannons and gunpowder, and when he set fire to grain and grass and build a wall of fire, he also specially ordered the iron cannons and gunpowder to be gathered in it and strictly protected.

Just because, at that time, the Japanese iron cannon was not popular, and the cost was extremely expensive, if a daimyo had a hundred iron cannons, it was already a great thing, and the Japanese called the iron cannon, which was just an arquebus, was troublesome to load, and the range and accuracy were not comparable to modern firearms, plus these iron cannons were used in siege, so it was not surprising that Hasegawa Shuichi and others could not think of this joint.

At the moment, everyone held the attitude of trying it out, and began to pick up the iron cannon on the car and load the ammunition, but due to the small number of personnel, the loading process was very troublesome.

Long Shaocong took the lead in picking up the iron cannon, lit the fire rope, and after waiting for a few seconds, there was a "bang", and the projectile shot out, and it did not hit the target, but the huge sound made the frightened wolves jump up and down for a while.

Immediately afterwards, with the sound of "bang", others also shot, but the effect was too far from Long Shaocong's imagination, and the fright of the wolf far exceeded the damage value, not only that, frightened by this, the white-haired wolf king roared, and the evil wolf quickly gathered and rushed towards the wall of fire.

Due to the long time, two grain trucks have burned out, and the skeleton is paralyzed with a "bang", and a gap is suddenly revealed, and the wolves immediately swarmed through the gap.

Everyone wanted to reload and continue shooting, but it was too late, Matsukura Shigexin was quick, threw away the iron cannon in his hand, drew out his sword, and slashed the two wolves running in front.

Seeing that the situation was urgent, the rest of the people also threw the iron cannon one after another, picked up the weapons on the ground to repel the wolf, but a few reacted a little slowly, and instantly died under the wolf's mouth.

Shuichi Hasegawa shouted, "Attack with fire, attack with fire...... and the rest of the ashigaru immediately picked up torches, and some even broke off the burning wheels and smashed them into the wolves......

Long Shaocong was loading ammunition and preparing to shoot again, when he suddenly heard the words "attack with fire", his brain moved, and he thought that since the iron cannon didn't work, why not use gunpowder directly?

Therefore, Yoshimaru and Yamaguchi were greeted, and two carts with gunpowder were put on the horses with ropes. Oda Katsunaga, who was killing wolves on the side, didn't know why, and asked, "Long Shao, what are you doing?"

Due to the urgency of time, Long Shaocong didn't have time to explain, and after putting two carts loaded with gunpowder and two batches of war horses, he "snapped" two whips on the horse's buttocks, and the war horse roared, pulled the flatbed car, and rushed out of the wall of fire......

The besieging wolves, frightened by the sudden momentum, immediately dodged a passage, but as soon as the horses passed, they pounced on them and tore the horses in the belly. The war horse was in pain, and kept raising its feet and kicking, neighing and running.

After all, they were brutes, and they couldn't distinguish between priority and priority, and when they saw that some prey had escaped, or sturdy horses, the hungry wolves immediately gave up biting everyone and all went to the "carriage".

"Quick, everyone hurry up and ride the rest of the horses, and Matsukura Shigenobu throws the torch into the cart filled with gunpowder!" The situation was urgent, and Long Shaocong didn't care about explaining, so he ordered directly.

Matsukura Shigenobu seemed to understand Long Shaocong's intentions, agreed, and picked up two torches while getting on the horse......

At this moment, seeing that the wolves were instantly attracted to the past, everyone saw hope in a trance, and even Shuichi Hasegawa was no longer a mother-in-law, and immediately stepped on his mount.

Ryū Shaocong rode on his horse, swept through the crowd, and found that everyone was ready, and due to the lack of horses, Yoshimaru and Yamaguchi also stepped on the same mount. As soon as the time came, he immediately shouted: "An explosion will sound in a while, let's rush out together......"

Everyone responded, and they all knew in their hearts that success or failure was only here.

At this time, Matsukura Shigenobu raised his arms and threw the two "torches" towards the "carriage" and the wolves that were gradually moving away......

Everyone held their breath and stared, seeing that the torches were getting closer and closer to the "carriage", Long Shaocong prayed in his heart, if this plan failed again, he would really have to die in the wolf's belly......
