Chapter 167: Your Highness, I Have a Plan
Dead people are always a very sad thing, but it depends on who is dying, or rather, it depends on where the butt sits, so when Wang Jingwei Wang sister assassinated the regent of the Qing Dynasty in later generations, the world regarded her as a hero, because Sister Wang's butt sat on the side of the alliance at this time, and when Sister Wang's ** moved to the side of the Fusang people, the direction of the world suddenly changed, and she was regarded as a traitor.
The two hundred Franc machine guns left by the obedient official suddenly opened fire when the Yuchai side launched a general attack in the afternoon, and the seven young people led by Kato Toranosuke [Shichinogaku Seven Guns] were just famous, and when they attacked the city, they were suddenly beaten into ashes by the Franc machine guns, like Kato Toranosuke, although it is said that he killed the tiger with a piece of sickle gun, similar to the second master of Wu Song Wu of the Ming Dynasty, but unfortunately, he was unlucky, his ass happened to sit on the opposite side of Zheng Guofan, and he never had the opportunity to become a righteous duke worshiped by Kyushu in later generations, it was nothing more than a dead ghost.
These two hundred Franc machines are about the thickness of the bowl, which belongs to the eliminated goods in the Ming Dynasty, and the ironclad ship of the obedient official is full of thigh-thick Franc machines, but in Fusang, with two hundred such heavy weapons, they are already qualified to hold on, Shibata Katsuya fled back to Kitanozhuang, and heard the samurai who stayed behind say that Zheng Guofan was about it, no less than the person who fell into the water grabbed the life-saving straw.
This year, Shibata Katsuya is sixty-two years old, to put it mildly, there is no erection ability for a long time, marrying the princess of the city is just a representative of him Shibata Xiu Liang is the heir of the Oda right house, it is completely a political marriage, later generations of Fuso literati said that Ah Shi did not marry before and the Katsu family had an ambiguous relationship, it is nothing more than a little girl to the first fierce general of the Oda family a hazy good impression, really to say that the two of them are concubines, it is really hell, at this time Ah Shi is only in his early thirties, the Katsu family is sixty-two years old, how the two of them were concubines.
That's why Shibata Katsuya didn't care about the Sugi Uemon no Suke who stayed behind, and when he said that Princess Aichi seemed to have a long conversation with His Royal Highness Ming Guo for several nights in a row, not to mention that His Royal Highness was only thirteen or fourteen years old, even if His Highness was twenty-three or fourteen years old, so what, so he waved his hand to let Sugi retreat, and the defeated Katsuya calmed down at this time.
There is a saying in the Ming Kingdom, money is heroic courage, and in the war-torn Fusang, this sentence may as well become a cannon is heroic courage, the Shengjia has a Buddha Lang machine, and naturally recovers its courage, there are 100,000 troops outside the city, but it is still that sentence, at this time, Fusang's troops are very false, the water is very sufficient, and the 100,000 army will detain those peasants, it is estimated that Yuchai Hideyoshi can have 20,000 troops, and this is still because the Oda family has implemented the separation of soldiers and farmers very early, and there are more professional samurai, and the Tokoku Nagazong of Shikoku has changed the head of the country, An army of 100,000 may have as many as 3,000 professional samurai.
War is nothing more than money, the ancients also understood this truth, when Nobunaga hit Nagashima and Honganji Temple several times, it was nothing more than a sentence, ten bald heads and nine rich, if you don't kill monks, where can you have money!
Only with money can you afford to raise more professional samurai, and if you have more professional samurai, you can encroach on more land, so although the Katsuya was defeated at this time, there were still 3,000 professional samurai in his hands, which was his last capital, and the five hundred people who stayed in the north were taken away by Ashi, and there were five hundred left, and these were also professional samurai.
The army outside the city sounds like a lot, but in fact, if you really calculate it, it is 3,500 people against 20,000 people.
In his calculations, he felt that the Ming State Art of War book said [Ten Rules of Siege], and the monkey seemed to have a lot of capital in his hands, but many of them were borrowed, and I might not be able to fight with him.
Can become the number one fierce general of the Oda family, although he is famous for his martial arts, but his brain is not stupid, he immediately set up two hundred Buddha Lang machines, but he did not open fire, just waiting for the monkey to order a general attack in the afternoon, and immediately opened fire in unison, and immediately bombarded Kato Kiyomasa Fukushima Masanori and others who were the first to attack the city.
Two hundred Franc machines fired in unison, this power even if the later Toyotomi Hideyoshi invaded North Korea in history, the Ming Dynasty sent troops to rescue, as soon as the Franc machine fired, it would also scare the Fuso samurai to the point of urine, Fuso's own biography also believes that the Ming Dynasty's cannon was good, and boasted that his musket was better, as for the small place in North Korea, the Korean history books directly recorded that [the sonic boom is several miles, the ground shakes the mountains, and the soul of the hearer is scattered].
It's not that the people of Fusang haven't seen the Franc machine of the Ming Kingdom, but the Franc machine sold by the former Ming Dynasty is just as thick as an arm, and it is the lowest end of the goods, and the Ningbo Bawei sold to the Dayou family is now being used by the obedient officials to make free favors to the Shengjia This batch of goods is a mid-range goods, as thick as a bowl, a salvo, not to mention outside the city, even the Shibata family's own samurai in the city were so frightened that they stood on the spot, only to feel that the ears were buzzing, and the world was spinning.
After all, these Franc machines are not the tiger squat cannon of the Ming Dynasty, the tiger squat cannon is equivalent to a scattered bullet, and it is really a sharp weapon to defend the city, but even so, due to the dense number of people besieging the city, this salvo also killed and injured more than 1,000 people, and if you are lucky, you are wiped by the shells, and your arms are gone, and if you are unlucky, several people are stacked back and forth, and they are also pierced by solid shells.
And the so-called cheap no Yue Qiben gun is a guy who has no luck, the first round of salvo, except for Katagiri and Yuan who was broken by a solid cannonball and lay on the ground wailing, the rest of the people died and there was not one left, one meter seven tall, Kato Toranosuke Kiyomasa, who was recorded as a great husband in the history books of Fuso, was directly smashed his whole head, and blood spurted out of his chest more than one meter high, and he fell to the ground with a pop.
After a volley, a thick layer of gunpowder smoke floated over the city of Kitanozhuang, and tens of thousands of troops outside the city immediately retreated in fright.
Fuso used artillery on a large scale in history, and it was necessary to wait for the great turtle Ieyasu to attack Osaka Castle thirty years later, and the Noshi Yi story left behind said that the large barrel collapsed a corner of the castle tower of Osaka Castle, which allowed Osaka Castle to open.
One can imagine how much the impact of the centralized artillery tactics used thirty years earlier on the Fuso samurai, especially Hashiba Hideyoshi, who was wearing his own armor with gold leaf and standing on the spot, almost instantly, he thought of the first time he followed his lord Oda Nobunaga into battle, and saw hundreds of iron cannons firing at the same time.
Could it be that this is a warning from Nobunaga's spirit in the heavens? The monkey couldn't help but think of it, and then, the ugly face twitched.
If the obedient official sees it here, he will definitely applaud, but unfortunately, this battle does not allow him to stay here, Beizhizhuang is a mountain city after all, too far from the sea, and the white dragon fish suit this kind of thing, if you do too much, something will happen after all.
There is also a small number of cavalry in this 100,000 army, Maeda Toshi's nephew Maeda interest or called Maeda Keiji, at this time he rode on the horse Songfeng, this guy is about equal to the height of one meter eight in later generations, in this era of Fusang, that is already a ghost-like man, but no matter how tall he is, the first time he encountered a volley of Franc machines, he suddenly had a cold war, and the pine wind under his crotch stepped back a few steps, and then shook his head restlessly and snorted.
This man is in his early Chinese New Year's Eve, proficient in eating, drinking and having fun, and several Chinese poems that have been handed down show that he is okay in terms of accomplishment, and as for Wu Yun, it has to be left to the imagination of future generations. Because he was already a famous admirer at this time, he liked to wear a big red robe when he went into battle, and he liked to take off his pants and expose his butt to shout at the enemy in front of the battle, plus his height of more than 1.80 meters and the loose wind horse under his crotch, even in an army of 100,000, he could easily be found.
Just after the pine wind under his crotch was startled by the salvo of two hundred Franc machines and retreated a few steps, a man dressed as a peasant soldier of the Yuchai family squeezed over, this guy was very vigilant, and pointed the gun in his hand at the other party.
"The villain is a ninja under the command of Okumura-sama." The man took a letter from his bosom, respectfully placed it on the tip of the gun, and then slowly took two steps back to show no hostility.
Maeda Keiji was confused in his eyes, and after taking back the gun, he opened the letter, and when he looked at the handwriting, he knew that it was written by his old friend Okumura Yongfuku, and then looked at the content of the letter, and his face immediately changed.
Stuffing the letter into his arms, he reached out and patted Songfeng's head, regardless of whether he was in an army of 100,000, he turned around and left with his horse's belly.
Even if his pine wind horse is placed in Daming, it can be regarded as a qualified war horse, in Fusang, that is a divine beast, the whole body is black pine wind carrying Maeda Keiji wearing a big red robe, the pine wind in the master lightly knocked, splash and run, sure enough, not to lose the name of the pine wind, running up like a gust of wind, riding on the horse Qingci's big red robe was immediately blown high.
This is on the battlefield, and it happened to be the time when the general attack was taken by surprise, so to speak, Maeda Keiji's unauthorized departure helped Zheng Chengguan a lot, and the 100,000 army was scratched for a while, and the wisdom of the peasants made most people think, this kind of big man with a figure like a ghost and god has retreated, are we going to be beaten to pieces of flesh and blood during the siege?
Maeda Toshiya's eyes were sharp, and he immediately saw Keiji leaving the battlefield, he couldn't help it for a while, and immediately scolded, bastard Keiji, don't let me see you again, otherwise I will definitely kill you.
Just like when Shibata Katsuie and Yushiba Hideyoshi fought before, Maeda Katsuya evacuated the battlefield without authorization, resulting in the defeat of Shibata's army, and countless Shibata family peasant soldiers threw their weapons away and ran home, and now, it is still the fan surnamed Maeda who retreats, and the 100,000 army first scratches for a while, and then, someone turns around and runs.
At this time, Yushiba Hideyoshi's military advisor Kuroda officer and soldier Wei Takataka saw that it was wrong, and immediately drank his subordinates Muri Taibei and Goto Right Guard with a cadre of samurai to maintain the military momentum, and the rest of the generals saw that Kuroda officer and soldier Wei Takataka, who was known as the chief wise general in the family, followed suit one by one, and finally maintained the military momentum and controlled the situation of the escape of his peasants.
The Katsuya who was standing on the castle tower in Kitanoso Castle saw everything outside and was overjoyed and applauded. And the samurai in the north of the village suddenly also morale boosted, no need for someone to command, seven hands and eight feet to move the Franc machine gun, this left down of the five hundred people came in handy, before the good official has sent someone to instruct them how to use the Franc machine, at this time one by one, eager to have another salvo to blow up the 100,000 troops outside (in real history, Shibata Katsuya committed suicide after the battle of Mt. Shiba, and Hashiba Hideyoshi immediately sent his younger brother Hidenaga to attack Shikoku Island, and the supervising army was Kuroda Kanwei, Kanbei used muskets in the attack on Yurayama and Ikeda, but the soldiers defending the castle were so frightened that they threw them off the castle and fled, as did the attack on Iwakura Castle, which was said to be the strongest castle in Shikoku. Therefore, the two hundred Franc machines of Kitanozhuang opened fire together, and it can be imagined what the situation of the Fuso people was. )。
And the general Yushiba Hideyoshi, who was colorless outside the city, came over to Kuroda and whispered to him that he had just run away from more than 8,000 people, and his face suddenly flushed, and he screamed, poofed, overturned the little maza, and fell on his back.
More than 1,000 died in a battle, and more than 8,000 ran, which is 10,000 people gone, especially when the general attack was the first to attack the city were official samurai, these people should be counted as five or even ten, and thousands of famous and surnamed samurai died in a battle, which is an unbearable thing in any big name, not to mention that the first to attack the city is also the monkey who has just sent a feeling of the seven guns of the Cheap Mountain, which was praised by the monkey for his merits just two days ago, and today they are all dead, which is undoubtedly a big mouth for slapping the monkey.
The little surname next to the monkey hurriedly helped him up, he coughed violently for a while, and his heart was sad, he lost one-tenth of his strength in one day, how could this battle continue.
The subordinates of the monkey looked at each other, and at this time, Asano Nagamasa suddenly jumped out and made a difficulty, and put the responsibility on the Maeda Toshiya, hum! If it weren't for that Wonder Collector of your family who left the battlefield without permission, how could so many people have escaped!
"Guards, shut up." The monkey scolded Asano Nagamasa, Asano and the monkey are brothers-in-law, and they have a close relationship, so they naturally dare to say this, but other people are not very good at pouring dirty water on the Maeda Toshiya, and the monkey's younger brother Xiuchang Shizai is a kind person, and it is said that he has hardly blushed with anyone.
However, Asano still didn't see the situation clearly, Maeda Toshika's anti-water departure from the battlefield led to the collapse of Shibata's army, which was actually instructed by the monkey, and now Asano accuses Maeda Toshiya of saying that Maeda Keiji left the battlefield without authorization, isn't it a slap in the face of the monkey.
At this time, Di Xiuzheng said cautiously, "Your Highness, I have a strategy, it is better to besiege Beizhizhuang without attacking ......" This is an old routine of monkeys, I won't beat you, I will consume you alive."
However, Kuroda officer and soldier Wei Xiaogao shook his head and said no, if he is frustrated today, he will be besieged but not attacked, and his morale will be even lower after a long time. Then, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he bent down and whispered to Hideyoshi: "Your Highness, the fortified city that Beizhizhuang has been operating for many years is in a hurry, so it is better for us to abandon Beizhizhuang and go straight after that killing Shigeru." ”
Kanbei also knows about this killer Shige, according to the ninja report, this is very good at tossing on Kyushu Island, and now it seems that he has some ability, but his nest is in Kyushu, but there is no place in Hokuriku.
Most of the people are guys who fight every day, and as soon as their minds turned, they understood that this was going to be a field war, and if they fought in the field, there was no strong city to defend, and how could an army of 100,000 gnaw each other.
When Hideyoshi heard this, his eyes also lit up, and he hurriedly shouted, go and pass on the ninja.
"Lord, I've already investigated." Kuroda Kanbei worked hard in front of the monkey, but he didn't know that the monkey hated others more than him and liked to show off, so his face frowned slightly, but this was not the time to care, so he immediately stretched his brows and let Kanbei speak.
The officers and soldiers were triumphant, thinking that they had won the heart of the lord, but they didn't know that they were just like Yang Xiu figuring out Cao Ying's thoughts, and such an obvious attempt was the most hated.
Therefore, the most difficult thing for people to understand is themselves, the officers and soldiers did not know about it, so they roughly said the information of Zheng Guofan from the investigation, and at the end, they added a sentence, and the minister sent his subordinates to kidnap a few peasants nearby, and they all said that the nobles of the North Sho City went to Kanesaki, and it seems that the news that the ninja got before was correct.
When everyone heard this, they immediately geared up, and they couldn't gnaw on the North Village, and they couldn't clean up a guy who only had more than 1,000 people around him in the wild?
However, the monkey was cautious, and groaned, saying that in case the other party escaped back to Kanesaki Castle...... Kuroda Kanbei smiled: "Your Highness, you have forgotten that we are now allies with the Maori family!" ”
Although this was clear, most people still didn't understand it, and they asked him how to say it. Kuroda was proud, so he said, the Maori family navy was also unparalleled in the world back then, and His Royal Highness could repair a book, so he might as well say that he could return Tottori Castle to the Maori family, so that the Maori family navy could pour out of the nest and go straight to Kanesaki...... As soon as he said this, everyone immediately understood, and immediately made friends, the monkey touched his chin and thought about it, thinking that this was a clever plan, and it consumed the strength of the Maori family, but it was feasible, and immediately slapped his thigh, in order to pretend to be easy to reassure his subordinates, and even joked about Maeda Katsuya, "Left, when the time comes, let's go in, will Mrs. Song still ......be there" Halfway through the words, he felt that it was too frivolous, and now he is not a colleague and neighbor of Maeda Katsuya, but the boss of Katsuya, and immediately closed his mouth, But the people around couldn't hear it, so they laughed and said, Maeda-sama's wife has always been dignified and dignified.
Maeda Toshiie's face twitched for a while, and he couldn't help but feel that the hat on his head was green.
And what is Keiji Maeda doing at this time? Maeda Keiji got a letter from Okumura Eifuku and learned that his uncle was now taking a hot spring with someone, and he was immediately angry, so he didn't care about any private retreat and so on, and went to Kanesaki, and when he arrived in Kanesaki, he threw the pine wind into the field, took off his red battle robe, and then removed the armor that was in the way, scattered his hair, and smeared some mud on his body, and dealt with it for a long time, found a water source and looked at the water, and looked at it like a mountain villager, so he turned around and went into the mountains.
Although Maeda Keiji is learning to sing, tea ceremony and dancing, he is a ninja and proficient in makeup assassination, this is to prepare to sneak to the side of His Royal Highness Ming Guo to rescue his uncle, it is best to kill that one, this is the behavior of the world.
Maybe my uncle will take the risk to save her and reward me with a kiss!
His heart was hot, like a big cat, and he dived to Kanazaki's most famous hot spring.
And at this time, the good official was really soaking in the hot spring.
