Chapter 579: Roasted Frogs
What appeared in front of the general under the command of Morimi was a mountain path that had been dyed dark red.
The air was filled with the disgusting smell of blood.
Countless corpses lay on the ground in a staggered and irregular manner, and a katana sword was slanted into the heart, indicating that his master had gone to the Santugawa Prefecture to go through the immigration procedures.
"This ...... This is...... The head of His Royal Highness Nobuyo-kun Anayama! Fall back! Retreat! "The general who was in charge of the fifty ashigaru team suddenly found a head next to a corpse and screamed in fright.
The general grabbed the head of Nobuyoshi Anayama with one hand, turned around and fled with his fifty ashigaru troops towards the main camp of Morumi Akibe.
"The whole army retreats! Return to the Kusakikan! After listening to the report of the general, his face changed suddenly, and after turning his head and looking around a few times, he hurriedly gave the order to retreat.
Unexpectedly, his military formation had just taken less than ten breaths when a loud shout rang out behind him!
"It's now! Assault of the whole army! ”
Wang Tianxie pulled out the "demon knife" on his waist. The "Oni Shine Pill" big sword, obliquely pointing to the trail in the far part of the mountain trail Sheng Shi, crotch under the second generation of Nanban famous horse "Oni Lu Mo" belly, a horse rushed down the rock ramp.
"Hey, hey!"
The four thousand Oda family ghost army horseback iron artillery team followed closely behind him, shouting loudly in his mouth, the battle spirit instantly burned to the peak, and the crotch manipulated the war horse to rush down the hillside.
Morumi Morumi originally thought that the enemy army who came this time would be a former friend of the wealthy family of Shinano Province, but when he saw Wang Tianxie's "five-wheel papaya pattern" family crest, he was so frightened that he trembled and almost fell off his horse.
"Retreat! The whole army retreats! The ghost of the Oda family is here! Morimi shouted loudly. Clamped the horse's belly and fled desperately the way it came.
The five words "Oda family's ghosts" fully demonstrated their deterrent power at this moment, and the 1,000 ashigaru teams were shocked, and the morale of the army was completely chaotic.
In addition, seeing that the main general had begun to flee, the thousand-footed light team following behind him was even more chaotic. They fled in all directions.
It's a pity that the geographical location of the trace at this moment is really embarrassing, and there are sloped hillside rocks on both sides, and the physical strength required to escape up the mountain is not ordinarily easy.
In particular, the military array brought by Wang Tianxie was all mounted iron artillery team, which itself had a great advantage in terms of mobility and even attack range.
Wang Tianxie clamped the belly of the second-generation Nanban famous horse "Ghost Deer Mo" under his crotch, and "Ghost Deer Mo" accelerated again, driving 8,000 war horses to continuously increase the speed of the military formation of the trace department.
The entire mountain trail was only the sound of the hooves of the Oda family's ghost army at this moment, and Wang Tianxie and the eight thousand ghost army howled excitedly. and the wails of the 1,000-strong army array.
Wang Tianxie made a gesture, and Maeda Keiji, Takenaka Hanbei, and even the general-level samurai of the Oda family's ghost army led the military formation to start shooting.
Lead pellets flew into the backs of the members of the Ashigaru team led by Morinomi.
As the distance got closer and closer, and even entered the range of fifty meters, the lead shot of the iron cannon shot into the back and back of the Ashigaru team, and the force of the flight had not weakened, and it rushed out of the ashigaru's chest again, shooting into the colleague running in front of him.
If it's a shot in the arm or shoulder, it's fine. You can be dragged by your colleague to continue to escape. But the ashigaru team who was shot in the chest, abdomen, or leg had a completely different luck.
Wang Tianxie did not order the Oda family ghost army to jump off their horses and carry out the action of "mending the sword". On the contrary, he rode his horse more directly after him.
"Click......"
The iron hooves of 8,000 war horses stomped directly into the body of the fallen Ashigaru team member, and immediately afterward, a bento box would be distributed to the member of the ashigaru team. and a pass to Santugawa Prefecture.
The military formation of the traces is as if Xiao Zhengtai has been stabbed with a certain "flower", and all that is left is constant wailing and screaming, but he has to enjoy the attack from behind.
The military formation, which had already been eroded by panic, became even more chaotic at this moment. Every ashigaru is pushing me and completely losing his formation, let alone counterattacking.
At this moment, everyone's minds are filled with only escape, and escape, and escape...... There is nothing else.
After two rounds of volleys, the cavalry iron artillery team led by Wang Tianxie had already inserted into the military formation of Shengshi from behind. The trails in the mountains have been bleached with a dark red liquid, and the original earthy yellow color is no longer visible.
Since it had already rushed into the solid military formation of the traces at this moment, the iron cannon had long lost its effect. However, while the iron cannon is not suitable for use, the spear and the daitai knife are perfect for the scythe of the Grim Reaper.
Wang Tianxie's "Demon Knife. Oni Shinemaru "Daitai sword slashed left and right, while slashing over every member of the Ashigaru team who was blocking in front of him, while leading Takenaka Hanbei and Maeda Keiji straight to the front of the military formation, fleeing in the direction of Higasakikan Morimi.
As for the members of the Oda family's ghost army who followed them, they began to divide and cooperate one after another.
The member who is responsible for controlling the horse, holding the reins with both hands, concentrates on maneuvering the horse forward, jumping, and trampling.
As for the members who were originally responsible for firing the iron cannon, they inserted the iron cannon in their hands into a leather bag tied to the side of the horse's belly, and the spear in their hand kept poking in, withdrawing, stabbing and pulling out again, and with each shot, a pass to the Santu River would be handed to a member of the Ashigaru team under the command of Morimi Jibe.
"Enemy general! I've been killed by my Oda King Heavenly Evil! "When the military formation of the Oda family's ghost army completely chiseled through the 1,000-strong ashigaru team of the Tracebe Morimi, Wang Tianxie had also successfully cut off the head of the Tracebe Morimi.
Wang Tianxie did not retreat with the army to pursue the fleeing ashigaru team. Whether or not these members of the ashigaru team can escape in this battle formation is no longer something he needs to think about now.
This is because, a castle has already appeared in front of his eyes, a flat castle named Hirazakikan Castle.
Hesakikan is a flat castle, and the so-called flat is a castle built on a plain, not a mountain. If a city like this really wants to be attacked, it is actually not too difficult. However, as the nest of the "Kai Country Big Cat", the Hesaki Pavilion had to make Wang Tianxie mention the spirit of twelve.
This flat castle has an irregular circle and is cut into two parts from the center. The Honmaru Great Castle Tower was built in the south half, Ninomaru was in the south half, and Sannomaru surrounded Honmaru and Ninomaru.
Takeda Nobutoshi finally saw who his enemy was, but it was precisely because he saw Wang Tianxie's family crest clearly that he couldn't help but feel a burst of wow-cool and wow-cool in his heart.
Yaga! What the hell is that guy doing? How did you let this ghost run away to the Kusakikan? Takeda Nobutoyo involuntarily scolded in his heart.
He didn't know that his cousin had already fled to Yuanjiang Country by boat. If he had known, he would definitely stomp his feet and scold the cheating daddy now!
"Whole army! Cage City Defense! What about the iron artillery team and the archery team? Shoot! Shoot me hard! Takeda Nobutoyo roared loudly, and his retainers and generals began to gather his ashigaru team to defend the cage castle.
Wang Tianxie did not approach the Hegasaki Pavilion, but rushed to the farmland next to the Hegasaki Pavilion.
"Keiji! You're in charge of driving out all the townspeople of the castle! Wang Tianxie shouted to Maeda Keiji.
"Imperial Will! You guys! Come on! Keiji Maeda replied as he waved his hand and rushed towards the castle town with a thousand members of the ghost army's mounted iron artillery team.
Wang Tianxie is planning to assist the Hesaki Pavilion in the operation of "clearing the wilderness", of course, his methods are definitely more radical.
He led 2,000 members of the mounted iron artillery team around the Ashigasaki Pavilion, and the iron cannons in his hands frequently fired at the Ashigasaki Pavilion.
At the same time, he ordered the Takenaka Hanbei to destroy all the farmland, and ordered Keiji Maeda, who had driven all the townspeople of the castle town away, to completely burn the castle town built around the Tsugasakikan.
A raging fire burst into the castle town, and billowing black smoke swept into the air. All the fields around the Tsugasakikan were trampled by the horses' hooves.
"The ghost! What is the ghost going to do? Out of the line! Give me a fight! Takeda Nobutoyo was shocked, grabbed Kiso Yoshiyasu's chest collar, and yelled angrily.
The problem is that the castle town of the Ashigasakikan was built around the Ashigasakikan. Therefore, when all the buildings in the castle town were in flames, Takeda Nobutomi suddenly found that his breathing began to become very laborious, and the heat in the air became more and more abundant.
Yes, Wang Tianxie is carrying out an alternative "boiling frog in warm water" strategy. No, strictly speaking, it should be a "dry steamed frog".
The fire that broke out in the castle town turned the central Heshigasakikan into an open space in an oven. The flames raging in Shishu caused the air above the Kusakikan to expand and rise due to heat.
Wang Tianxie in the previous life knew very well, even a ten-year-old child would know that fire would go out without oxygen, and people would die without oxygen.
At this moment, Takeda Nobutoyo can be regarded as fully understanding what will happen if people lose oxygen.
The black smoke in the sky, accompanied by the increasingly hot air, turned one of the Nuoda Tsugasaki Pavilion into a steamer. Takeda Nobutoyo and even the elders of the city, the samurai above the rank of general, and even the garrison ashigaru team, began to feel dizzy and had difficulty breathing.
Only a flat castle like the Heshizakikan can achieve such an effect. After all, in a Pingcheng like this, the water source is only a dozen wells at best, even if there is a small river, Wang Tianxie will definitely not achieve such an effect. (To be continued......)
