Chapter 195

In Kyoto City, the gloomy sky looks like water dripping. △ Top Novel,

Carrying bags of dirt on their backs, they rushed towards the walls of Kyoto under the supervision of Mongol soldiers.

As long as some of the young men of the Japanese Kingdom were a little slower, those Mongolian soldiers slashed through them with a knife, so frightened that those young men of the Japanese Kingdom had to run towards the walls of Kyoto with all their might.

"Yaga Tooth Road! Bagaya Road!! ”

Even if it wasn't the first time he had seen such a scene, Shinhiro Sekihaku Konoe still felt extremely angry.

He was angry at the ferocity of the Mongol soldiers and saddened by the cowardice of the Japanese people.

They are the people of the kingdom of God, so how can they serve their enemies against the emperor who nurtures all souls?

For these young people of the Japanese country, Konoe Shinhiro also hated it to the extreme.

After six days of efforts, the enemy had filled the moat.

Of course, they also paid a huge price, that is, the lives of nearly 30,000 young and strong people.

The Mongol soldiers were unconcerned about this.

Like this, the people of the Japanese country, the surrounding areas have, how many there are.

It's not their people who are dead, they care about a fart.

"Shoot! Shoot me! ”

Seeing the Japanese people in the range of the muskets, Konoe Shinhiro shouted hysterically.

The soldiers on the city walls were reluctant to fire at these young men, because there were probably their relatives here.

But under the pressure of those samurai, they finally opened fire.

In fact, they also knew that if they did not fire, the walls would be breached, and the Mongol soldiers would slaughter them.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

“……”

The sound of intense firing was incessant. The walls of the city were immediately filled with thick smoke of gunpowder. A large amount of buckshot flew towards the young men of the Japanese country.

"Ahh

"Ahh

“……”

Some of the young men were immediately shot. Some of them had a large hole in the chest, and some had been shot in the leg.

Then he collapsed in a pool of blood and let out a terrible wail.

They stretched out their hands to the young man next to them, hoping that they could save them.

Seeing this, some of the young men of the Japanese Kingdom felt extremely frightened, and their movements naturally slowed down, but there was an angry roar immediately behind them.

"Throw the dirt bag under the city wall, just throw three and you will get a rice ball. Otherwise. The Mongolian uncle will not only not give you food, but will also cut off your heads. ”

Some of the Japanese warriors who had taken refuge in the Ming army shouted loudly.

No matter what kind of people, there will be some people who have no integrity, and the Wa Kingdom will not be an exception.

Since the Ming army attacked the Wa Kingdom, a large number of Japanese warriors and civilians have come to take refuge from time to time, and not all of them are optimistic that the Wa State will be able to win.

Moreover, some samurai, declining daimyo and the Tokugawa shogunate had a hatred of destroying the country, and they would not have had the opportunity to avenge this great revenge in their lives, but the arrival of Lu Yan gave them a chance.

They all longed for Lyuiwa to conquer Japan after defeating the Tokugawa shogunate, so that they might be canonized as daimyo or samurai with fiefdoms.

Lu Yan also accepted all these Japanese people who came to take refuge, and those samurai were arranged to be the leading party, or to manage the captured Japanese civilians. After all, it is more convenient for the Japanese to manage the Japanese people.

Hearing this, those young people of the Japanese country felt extremely angry.

The Mongol soldiers robbed them of their food. And then caught them here.

And they have not been allowed to eat, and if they want to eat, they can only help them work, otherwise they will starve to death.

Some people have not eaten a grain of rice for three days, and the whole person is dizzy with hunger, and their eyes are green when they see what they can eat.

But anger is anger, and after all, it still can't fill the stomach.

As soon as they heard about the food, some of the young people of the Japanese Kingdom plucked up their courage one after another, and then rushed desperately under the city wall.

Just throw three earthen bags and you'll be ready to eat rice balls.

When I think of this, many people are drooling.

At the same time, the Mongolian shooters also began to counterattack.

At the suggestion of Mozhigen and Suhe, they drove the young men to dig a group of serpentine trenches in front of the walls of Kyoto.

These serpentine trenches stretched to within a hundred paces in front of the walls of Kyoto, just as Lu Yan attacked those fortresses.

Some of the elite Mongol archers hid in the trenches and shot arrows at the exposed Japanese musketeers.

It was definitely the pinnacle of Mongol history, they started archery at the age of almost three and spent their entire lives in battle.

It may not be possible for everyone to take a hundred steps, but it is still possible to shoot a person's head in a hundred steps.

Therefore, they shoot arrows with tricks and poison, no worse than Houjin's elite marksmen.

As soon as the Japanese musketeers showed their heads, several elite shooters aimed at him at the same time.

Then a flurry of arrows flew and landed on his head.

"Ahh

"Ahh

“……”

The musketeers let out all sorts of screams, some of them retracting in fright without even firing.

What frightened them even more was that the Mongols had smeared poison and feces on the arrows.

Once shot, then it is dead.

The musketeers who had been shot by the enemy two days ago were largely dead.

In addition to these, there are also Mongolian shooters who are throwing shots.

An overwhelming rain of arrows fell on the city, all of which were as heavy as the English longbowmen.

These arrows can even penetrate the armor of the Wakoku and then pierce their bodies, not to mention that not everyone in the Wa Kingdom wears armor.

All of a sudden, the screams of the city of Wa were incessant, and there was chaos.

Seeing this, Konoe Shinto couldn't help but be frightened again.

"Fire on me! Otherwise, if the enemy enters the city, we will be finished! ”

Konoe shouted angrily.

Seeing that this was of little use, he summoned some samurai and asked them to force the musketeers and archers to shoot at the Japanese or Mongol archers.

The samurai also knew the seriousness of the situation. If the untouchables were allowed to build a gentle slope in front of the walls. Then Kyoto is finished.

After chopping off some heads. The musketeers and archers had to tremble and return to the wall to continue shooting.

But braving the rain of enemy arrows, how much better can their shooting accuracy be.

It didn't take long for these musketeers and archers to suffer heavy casualties.

Those Japanese soldiers who were hit by arrows were all in mourning and terrified.

Although they are still alive and kicking now, they have begun to turn dark, and it will not be long before they die.

Under the cover of the Mongol archers, the young men threw more and more earthen bags under the city walls.

Although the walls of Kyoto were very high, the Mongol cavalry did not count the casualties of the Japanese civilians. Sooner or later, a gentle slope will be carved out in front of it.

The casualties of the musketeers and archers on the walls of the city were increasing and the fear of the enemy was incomparable.

Add to that the casualties of the previous few days, and it won't be long before they are estimated to be exhausted.

This frightened Shinhiro Konoe, and it seemed that he could only open fire.

Originally, he planned to wait for those Mongol soldiers to attack before firing artillery, after all, it was a bit of a waste to shoot at Qingzhuang, but if this continued, maybe Kyoto would soon be breached.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

“……”

The artillery on the walls of Kyoto has finally been fired.

A deafening cannon roar rang out, and thick white smoke rose from the walls.

The dense rain of bullets swept forward like an overwhelming sweep, and some young people of the Japanese country were shot one after another without noticing, and they were beaten and fell to the ground covered in blood.

As the saying goes, veterans are afraid of guns, and recruits are afraid of cannons.

The great power of the city's artillery frightened these young men, who were not even recruits. These young men trembled with fear, so they threw down the dirt bags one after another. Then he screamed and fled backwards.

"Don't run! Whoever runs will be killed!! ”

The samurai of the Wa Kingdom who had taken refuge shouted loudly.

But these young people have been frightened, where will they listen to them.

Seeing this, Konoe Shinhiro's face couldn't help but smile, it seems that the power of the artillery is still good.

But soon he couldn't laugh anymore, because the overwhelming rain of arrows was thrown at the positions of the artillery.

The gunners were immediately hit by arrows, and the sharp heavy arrows easily penetrated their bodies, so they fell to the ground screaming.

Seeing this, Konoe Shintoshi couldn't help but be frightened.

You must know that the gunners are a real technical class, and if these gunners die, then who will open the cannons.

All of a sudden, the guards were caught in an incomparably conflicted question about whether to let these gunners open fire.

In addition, more Mongol archers targeted the fleeing Japanese youths.

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

“……”

Arrows easily pierced through their clothes and into their bodies.

The sudden rain of arrows frightened these young people.

At the same time, some Mongolian cavalry cavalry rushed over, and then swung their sabers and slashed at these young men of the Japanese country, and those young men of the Japanese country were immediately cut to the ground.

"Go back! Otherwise, I'll kill you!! ”

Seeing that the young men of the Japanese kingdom were shocked, those Mongolian cavalry shouted loudly.

After all, it is not good to kill all these young men to attack the city.

Although those young people of the Japanese country could not understand their words, they still understood what they meant.

Looking at the cavalry in the distance, with no end in sight, they knew that continuing to escape was definitely a dead end.

On the contrary, if you follow their orders, you may have a way out, after all, the Mongolian archers are still very powerful, and the cover for them is quite in place.

After weighing it, the young men finally turned around and picked up the dirt bags they had thrown away, and then rushed towards the Kyoto city wall.

These Mongols didn't treat them as human beings, and the Japanese people also shot at them, and they really couldn't live this day.

Probably due to the rain of arrows from the Mongols, those artillery pieces temporarily stopped firing, which relieved those young men a lot.

Although the musketeers and archers of the Japanese Kingdom still braved the rain of arrows to shoot at them, due to the low accuracy of the shooting, the young men of the Japanese Kingdom did not even feel that this task was particularly dangerous.

In this way, the war is still raging.

A large number of Japanese musketeers and archers were killed by the poisoned arrows of the Mongol archers, and their resistance became weaker and weaker.

There were also a large number of deaths among the young men of the Japanese state, and although the Mongol archers also suffered casualties, they were covered by trenches, and the overall casualties were not too high.

In the distance, Tuo Lei watched all this quietly, the blood of the young man of the Japanese country almost stained the land, and the front of the wall of Kyoto was full of the corpses of the young man of the Japanese country, but this could not make him feel the slightest pity.

As long as this city can be captured, even if there are many young people who die, it is worth it.

As time went on, the slopes beneath Kyoto became higher and higher.

The enraged Wa people came up with various ways to deal with these young and strong Wa people.

They poured boiling water and dung on these young people, and one by one they were scalded to the flesh, but the gentle slope still slowly but surely became higher.

After a day, the gentle slope was finally almost level with the Kyoto Castle Wall.

Beneath the walls of Kyoto are the corpses and severed limbs of the Japanese nation.

Some of the young and strong people of the Japanese country are not yet dead, and they are powerless to let out all kinds of wails.

The entire battlefield was almost a hellish scene of Shura.

Flocks of crows also appeared in the sky over Kyoto, and they smelled death and came from afar.

Looking at the hordes of corpses on the ground, there was a greedy look in their eyes.

They linger in the sky and make unpleasant calls that seem to indicate a bad omen.

Tuo Lei looked at the crow in the sky, and then showed an expression of extreme disgust.

He took out his bow and arrows, and shot them at the end.

A crow fell in response, scaring the other crows away.

Seeing this, Tuo Lei showed a satisfied expression.

He glanced at Kyoto coldly, and then said, "Pass my order and prepare to attack the city." (To be continued......)
