Chapter 122: Kamogawa Ambush (Three Watches)

The encounter of this day is like a roller coaster, experiencing the good start to the current bad result, the bad effects of the Ataka ship being stuck in the quagmire and difficult to pull out are constantly fermenting, and some bad comments are quietly circulating, which makes Noguchi Fuyuncho feel extremely irritable.

Although he is a guy with mediocre ability and dare not be lonely, he is not a complete stupid, at least the basic common sense of the navy is still there, when he realized this problem, he immediately ordered the three Ataku ships behind him to turn their bows, tie up the two stranded Ataku ships with cables, and pull the two boats out as soon as possible.

But these five boats were crowded in the narrow river and couldn't move back and forth, Sekifune and most of Kohaya were sent over by Noguchi Fuyucho to pursue Yodogawa people, and they had already run to the front of the Ataka boat, and the helpless Awaji sailors immediately realized how dangerous their situation was, and relied on the small body of a dozen or so Kohaya behind them to tow the Ataka boat? Forget it.

Noguchi Fudanaga's own ship was one of the two ships in front of him, and he was on fire when he saw his boat crashing into the mudflats and could not move forward, and the water level in the rivers was much lower than in the past in the Kyoto area, where the summer sun seemed to be at its worst.

The three Ataka boats in the back were crowded together and it was difficult to turn around, and a group of oarsmen desperately shook the wooden oars to make the Ataka boats move backwards, but it had little effect, because Noguchi Fudanaga's strict orders put a lot of pressure on the Awaji water army, and the three Ataka boats were not coordinated consistently, and as a result, they all wanted to go out first, but the rhythm was disrupted, and everyone was huddled together, and no one could get out.

Just when they were sweating in a hurry, the Kira Navy rushed from behind like a beast waiting for an opportunity to kill its prey, and even more than a dozen ships of the ship and Kozao were dispatched, and even the shuttle ships that transported troops came.

"It's the Shogunate Army!"

Several Ataka ships were in a mess, two of the three Ataka ships in the back turned their bows, and Kozai, who gathered the guards, hurriedly met the battle, and the Kira Navy shot with bows and arrows while lining up the Seki-ship loaded with grenadiers in the front, and the iron artillery team disabled Koza, who was in front of Miyoshi's house, with a salvo, and then a Seki-ship full of grenadiers rushed over at a rapid pace in the face of the fierce rain of arrows on the opposite side.

"Grenadier throws!" Kato Kyoaki shouted, and dozens of clay pots filled with gunpowder flew onto the Ataka ship,

"Boom, boom!"

A series of thunderous loud noises exploded, and the two Ataka ships shook violently and made a tooth-aching squeak, and the hard deck of the Ataku ship was blasted out of several huge gaps, and the raging fire ignited from the gaps, and the Awaji sailors inside the ship turned into burning men, wailing and jumping like struggling in the river, whether they could be redeemed from the river or not, they were greeted only by the merciless shooting of the archers.

"Grenadier throws!" Kato's expressionless voice was like a hypnotic sound, and a new round of clay pots once again arced and fell into the Ataka ship.

"Boom! Click! Bang! "The two Ataka ships were blown in two by the huge blast wave, and all the Awaji sailors who were still stubbornly resisting inside the ships were reduced to ashes.

"Ahh Yes...... Yes! The terrible screams made the samurai of the Kira Naval Army dozens of miles away feel related, the combat methods of the previous naval army were completely broken, the powerful iron cannons and baked jade almost disintegrated the bow and arrow ships they were proud of, and these soldiers could only let out a silent sigh when they saw the Awaji Naval Army being beaten and powerless.

"What's going on! Don't mess around! Tell me what the hell is going on! Noguchi Fudenaga also heard the movement, but it was a pity that his ship was mired in front of him, and his eyes were caught by the difficult U-turn of the Ataka ship, but he heard the navy vaguely saying that His Royal Highness was coming.

A young samurai said with a crying voice, "Xiaozao is all sinking! The Ataka ship has also sunk! It's all over! Finished! Woowoo woo ......"

"Bastard! Don't talk nonsense! Engage in battle now! Noguchi Fudenaga had no other way but to scold angrily, he didn't believe in any shogunate army, he felt that behind it must be the main force of the Yodogawa people, and secretly scolded: "Damn the Yodokawa people, it's so despicable!" I, Noguchi Fuyucho, will not admit defeat! ”

Kira Yoshitoki's main camp is located in Kurita, north of Mt. Inari, where Kyoto's very famous Gion Shrine is located, one of the twenty-two shrines of Zoju, and in later generations its other name Yasaka Shrine is also famous, Kira Yoshitoki inexplicably thought of Yasaka Kanako, although Yasaka Sword God is the god of worship in Suwa Taisha, but the names of the two are indeed very similar.

"This is the Awaji Naval Army of the Megatron Seto Inland Sea? But Erl! The samurai of the Kira family began to giggle, and Honda ran to Kira Yoshitoki after a little estimation and said, "Lord of the Pavilion! The Awaji Navy is about to be defeated, should you start arranging it now? ”

"Hmmm! It's time to get started! The military equipment in Kira Yoshitoki's hand waved and ordered: "The three rivers are ready to go out immediately, and they must annihilate the invading Awaji Navy Army and leave no trouble!" ”

"Hah!" The samurai turned on their horses, and a column of ashigaru gathered into a torrent of red or black and rushed down the hill, and in Kira's opinion, the Ataka ships of the Awaji Naval Army were not the main force at all, and they were huge live targets when they entered the Kamogawa River, and the fifteen Sekibunes were more difficult to deal with compared to them.

According to the information transmitted by the Nine Ghosts Shigetaka, this is the first time that the Awaji Navy has taken the Kamogawa Waterway and is not familiar with the waterway here, completely relying on its own excellent quality, it can also drive a boat with such a deep draft to go so far, even if it loses the geographical advantage and the people, the Kira Navy does not dare to take risks easily, and must firmly grasp its own advantages to completely annihilate the enemy.

It's a pity that when he met Kira Yoshi, he was destined to not give full play to the overall strength of the Awaji Naval Army, two of the five Ataka ships were blown up and sunk, and the remaining three have become frightened birds, and Kira Yoshitoki also began to be moved, three Ataka ships are definitely a huge fortune, and it would be a loss if they were all violently blown up.

So he decisively ordered the main forces of Yodogawa, which was hiding behind the Kira water armament, to go into battle, and they were responsible for driving Kohaya to quickly approach and launch a white-knuckle battle, while Kira's army led fifteen Sekibunes to suppress the counterattack of the Ataka ships with bows and arrows and iron cannons.

In order to prevent them from jumping over the wall and scuttling the boat to commit suicide, he ordered the Yodogawa people to be sure to attack the three Ataka boats at the same time, Yodogawa Heisuke in his early twenties is the son of Yodogawa Sanemon, who has been begging for life on the water since he was a child, and is also very familiar with this Kamogawa River basin, just looked at the surrounding terrain and thought about it, and said to Kira Yoshitoki: "His Royal Highness Kira! Why don't you let me wait for the landing and wrap it over from both sides, those two stranded houses are easy to deal with! Leave the ship that turns around and hands it over! ”

"Good! This battle must be resolved quickly! Let's get out of the battle! ”

The Ataka ship, which turned its bow, did not dare to get away too far, so it could only stalemate and shoot at the opposite Sekibune, this kind of undeterrent play could not frighten the Kira naval army at all, and the bold Takigawa Mashige immediately decided to bypass the Ataka ship and attack the two immobile Ataka ships behind it.

Because the center of gravity of the defense of the Ataka ship is in the bow part, and the deck of the stern helmsman is almost unprotected, the two Ataka ships with deep mud feet have become the target of the naval iron cannons, and several rounds of iron cannon salvos have caught the Awaji naval army off guard and killed dozens of people, while the Awaji naval army is busy fighting back, and then the rounds of bow and arrow suppression make the people in the Ataku ship dare not show their heads at all.
