Chapter 778: Breaking through to the death

To be honest, the Imperial Army, which had flintlock pistols and artillery, fought against the Japanese people of this era, and it was a bit of a bully for them.

Especially when there are still more troops than the other side.

It's like a child in elementary school, bullying a kindergarten child.

The kindergarten children have no power to fight back at all.

Dozens of solid shells hit the city gate, and only three shells hit the gate, blasting three circular bullet holes out of the gate.

The shells that bombarded the walls near the city gates, although they did not hit the target, showed their incomparable power.

The craters on the city wall were blasted out one after another, and it looked very scary.

There were no archers in Tianyu City, which put them in a very passive situation right now.

After all, Edo was the residence of the shogun, and there used to be a standing army of more than 40,000 people.

Therefore, everyone is not a person, and there will be no one to disadvantage the general.

Therefore, in terms of armament, it is a little relaxed.

At the same time, because of some things in Osaka, the shogunate transferred more than half of the standing army here in Edo to the crusading army to conquer Zhao Hongyu and them.

Therefore, the number of troops here in Edo has become smaller.

With slackened armaments and a scarcity of troops, it is normal for the current situation to occur.

However, even if the Edo side has half of the troops, they still have half of the 20,000 men.

It's a pity that now those centaurs can't save Tianyu City at all.

Because the garrison camp, after being shelled from the sea, was suddenly disintegrated.

The soldiers died and fled, and there were few soldiers left in a huge barracks.

At the same time, the main road leading from the military camp to Tianyu City has been blocked by a team of 3,000 sailors drawn by Emma, so Tianyu City is completely isolated.

The land forces landed in the empire totaled 9,300 men. They were used to encircle Tianyu City in four directions, so there were more than two thousand soldiers in each direction.

After the separation, the Imperial Army was much less in terms of troops.

But in the same way, the number of Japanese soldiers in Tianyu City is not very large.

However, it was only 1,300 people.

Therefore, dividing troops to surround the Imperial Army on all sides of Tianyu City, even so, it maintains a great advantage in terms of troops.

"What to do? What to do? Now if any of you have the means, tell us what to do! ”

Ishida Hiroshi was completely confused at this time, and the composure he had pretended to be earlier was gone.

When he saw the enemies under the city. After the bombardment of Tianyu City, his confidence was completely shattered.

Don't say it's him, even those old people are now distraught and don't have any good ideas.

"Breakout!"

At this time, Lailaizi came behind Hiroshi Ishida and made a suggestion.

Breakthrough!

Everyone's attention was drawn to her.

"Lailaizi, Lailaizi, you have the most ideas, you must think of a good way."

Before Lailaizi could explain anything to everyone, Hiroshi Ishida seemed to have found the backbone. Excitedly kept Lailaizi.

After seeing their general's behavior, the elders couldn't help but shake their heads.

They knew that they, the general, would actually listen to this woman named Lailaizi in everything.

But they couldn't imagine that at such a critical moment. The Shogun couldn't make a decision, and he had to obey this woman again.

For such a general, they have already begun to feel disgusted in their hearts.

Especially when they think that in the future, they will probably have to follow the instructions of this woman behind the scenes. This is even more unacceptable to the machismo-rampant widows.

Coupled with Lailaizi's father, Ren Takeuchi, some of the elders began to live in their hearts.

Since the last time he said that he was going to punish Takeuchi Ren, there have actually been some family elders who have complained about this.

They decided that Hiroshi Ishida was no longer fit to be a shogun. Because he always obeys orders with a woman.

At the same time, these elders of the shogunate also learned from various sources that the woman Lailaizi was constantly recruiting some unambitious feudal lords and daimyos, so that those feudal lords and daimyo would be loyal to her.

What is this woman going to do?

This can't help but make the big guy vigilant.

Perhaps, it should really be abolished, as someone suggested, Hiroshi Ishida.

For the thoughts of these important ministers, Lailaizi and Ishida Hiroko will not know the way.

Because the two have been doing it all along, they have actually annoyed many people.

They don't know anything about it.

Lailaizi is smart, but she is still a little weaker in some ways.

As for Hiroshi Ishida, it's even more of a waste.

However, the important ministers did not make trouble at this time, after all, their current situation is still very bad.

Even if they had any ideas, they had to get out of this dangerous place, and then slowly contact some like-minded people, and then end Hiroshi Ishida's rule in a relatively mild way.

"Breakout!"

Lailaizi raised her hand and patted Hiroshi Ishida on the back, comforting him for a while, and then continued to explain.

"It's impossible for us to stay here in Tianyu City for a long time, the enemy's weapons are very powerful, and we are no opponent at all. Now that they've just surrounded us, we still have a chance......"

The crowd nodded as they listened.

What Lailaizi said is not bad at all, what use can they do even if they are stationed in Tianyu City.

It is impossible for reinforcements to come here in a short time.

And the enemy has the kind of weapon that can make a loud noise and be used as artillery by the southern barbarians to attack the city, and it is impossible for them to defend Tianyu City.

Perhaps, it won't be long before the enemy storms the city.

With those sophisticated weapons, the enemy can never be an opponent of the other side.

In this case, instead of sitting and waiting, it is better to break out.

At the very least, there is still a glimmer of life if you break through the encirclement, and it would be death to stick here.

"I'm for it!"

"Reconsideration!"

"Yes!"

"That's right, break out!"

None of the people who can be here are stupid, and some of the joints can be figured out quickly.

Now that you have figured out these gains and losses. Then there can be no further delay.

"Immediately assemble the soldiers, we will break through from the north gate, and strive to disrupt the enemy's deployment before the enemy has completely closed the siege." The order was very simple, and after the order was issued, everyone began to prepare.

"You take the flag book and go with His Highness, you must protect His Highness's safety." , Lailaizi grabbed Hiroshi Ishida's sleeve and told him very seriously.

As for Hiroshi Ishida's relationship with the young emperor, Lailaiko is clear.

She didn't think it was a big deal.

Compared to her relationship with her father, Ren Takeuchi, this is a piece of fart.

And. At this time, in the country of Wa, aren't some big names playing with some beautiful male surnames?

So, there is no fuss about the shogun and the emperor having fun.

Ishida nodded repeatedly, indicating that he would definitely take care of the frightened emperor who was shivering and cowering in the corner like a small quail.

"Lailaizi, aren't you going with us?"

Suddenly, Hiroshi Ishida seemed to think of something.

Lailaizi smiled: "How is it possible, if I don't leave." Stay and die? I'm not an idiot. She lifted her finger and poked it lightly at Hiroshi Ishida's forehead.

"So what are you waiting for, let's hurry up. A little later. It's too late. As Ishida spoke, he glanced back at the lookout from the lookout.

He found that the enemy artillery below was still bombarding. However, the Japanese soldiers at the head of the north gate discarded their weapons and began to flee from the city wall in a panic.

At the same time, sawdust flew from the thick wooden door of the north gate. Apparently unlikely to withstand.

Yes, the big wooden door at the north gate is already full of holes at this time.

Such a gate is about to fall down at the sight of it, and then a large opening is made for the Imperial Army.

Behind the city gate, some Japanese soldiers ran back and forth carrying bags made of straw ropes.

They piled up the bags at the city gates from generation to generation.

This was done in order to wait until the gates were destroyed, so that the place could stop the enemy from attacking.

"Swap shots! Put! ”

This time, the artillery used scattered bullets instead of solid ones.

After just one round of shelling, the crumbling gates fell.

"Forward!"

When the city gate of the north gate fell, the commander of the gene man at the north gate pulled out the war knife on his waist and waved, and then the queue began to move slowly, and the soldiers began to press through with neat steps.

When the Imperial Army at the North Gate advanced, a large number of Japanese soldiers also gathered on the north streets of Tianyu City.

Among these Japanese soldiers, there were also some 'immortal' people who were richly dressed, that is, high-ranking officials and dignitaries.

However, at this time, they don't have the usual demeanor. They were trembling all over at this time, or they were panicking, in short, it was not very normal.

"Get out of the way!"

With the roar of a military general, the Japanese soldiers gathered together responded with a 'hey' in unison, and then rushed to the gate of the northern city.

Because of the consideration of breaking through the siege, the Japanese ripped off the Japanese soldiers from the other three directions and concentrated them here in the north of the city.

In other words, they have to concentrate on one point and create a chance for themselves to live.

The two sides that began to advance towards the city gate, and the encounter began in the north direction of the city.

One side has to break through to the death, while the other side has to enter Tianyu City.

Therefore, the two sides began to fight bloody at the north gate of Tianyu City.

The Japanese are still very courageous.

It's a pity that they encountered the Imperial Army, which was sharply armed.

From the very beginning of the encounter, the massacre was one-sided.

The troops besieging the city in the other three directions also noticed the strangeness on the city, so they immediately divided a small group of troops and went to the north of the city to support, and at the same time blocked the gates of the other three directions, so that the Japanese people had no chance to move the tiger away from the mountain.
