The night sank and after being attacked by the defenders of Zaowang Castle, the camp of the Okabe Motoshin army was no longer a pile in the east and a pile in the west, but was close together, and the middle part was still sitting together, and on the periphery were groups of soldiers guarding cautiously.

In the main camp, Okabe Motonobu, who had just experienced a sneak attack, looked at the royal castle that was silent in the distance with an angry face, and asked the rest of the Imagawa family retainers in the military tent: "Everyone, can you tell me if Imagawa will come to attack tonight?" "He's obviously been scared by Imagawa's previous raid.

One of the retainers of the Imagawa family looked up at the sparse stars in the sky, shook his head slightly, and said: "The stars are dim tonight, and after a day of fighting, the defenders in the city have long been exhausted, and I am afraid that they will not attack again, but our army is also exhausted." ”

Seeing that this retainer seemed to have a clever plan, Okabe Motonobu hurriedly asked, "Tell me about it." ”

The retainer sighed and said: "The casualties in the first battle of the royal city today are not large, and now the number should still be between two or three thousand, they know that we only have five thousand, and the casualties in today's battle are heavy, and it is less than three thousand, they will not think that we will really have the courage to steal the city." Therefore, we first sent a team to beat gongs and drums under the city to disturb their sleep, and then they harassed them every once in a while, until the city was paralyzed and ignored us. This is the perfect time for us to raid and steal the city at night. ”

After hearing this, Okabe Motoshin praised loudly: "Brilliant plan, Your Excellency is worthy of a hero, and our side is not without a new force, waiting until the darkest time before dawn." I will take out more than 100 elite soldiers and hundreds of soldiers and hand them over to you. Thou shalt take the next royal city. ”

The retainer was dumbfounded when he heard this. I couldn't speak for a long time. Typical cocooning and self-restraint, this retainer originally thought that he was a strategist of the Imagawa family, and obviously he would not charge into battle, but he didn't expect that he had just offered a beautiful plan, but in the end he pushed it to himself.

In Okabe Motonobu's view, handing over more than 100 of the most elite soldiers in the Imagawa family's military to this retainer is to look up to this retainer and give this retainer an opportunity to make meritorious contributions. As soon as he saw that this retainer didn't nod in time, he pulled down his face and said, "What, you don't want to?" ”

"In the next wish!"

Immediately, that night, the Imagawa family made several harassment tactics in a row.

Actually, the idea of this retainer of the Imagawa family is good, but this time he really used the wrong object, you know, for harassment tactics, the Luo family governor Luo Masarashi is the most familiar. As the son of Zhengliang, Luo Xinliang has also followed his father Zhengliang several times to witness the harassment tactics.

Thereupon. After seeing the successive attacks outside the throne city, the corners of Luo Shi's mouth showed a sarcastic smile, and he said in a low voice: "It seems that the other party also has a capable person, and he would come up with such a riot plan, but he used it in the wrong place." ”

At this time, Cheng Song Xinsheng, who was beside Luo Xinliang, said with a little puzzlement after hearing this: "Young master, will the enemy really come to attack tonight?" Is it from the east or south of the city? ”

As soon as Cheng Song Xinsheng said this, the rest of the people in the evaluation room of the King City looked at Luo Xinliang one after another, which made Luo Xin Liang suddenly have a feeling of pointing out the country.

Luo Xinliang squinted his eyes and looked out of the city for a while, the bonfire outside the city was lit, and he couldn't see anything, and said with a sarcastic face: "East of the city? Seongnam? None of this is possible. ”

Cheng Song Xinsheng didn't quite understand the meaning of Luo Xinliang's words at this time, and wondered: "Then why do you choose to harass outside the city instead of harassing at the main gate?" Once there is too much harassment, laxity and paralysis, doesn't it just give them a chance?! ”

Luo Xinliang nodded and smiled: "Xinsheng, I can think and grow." After a pause, Luo Shi Xinliang pointed out of the city and continued: "In yesterday's battle, the enemy suffered heavy casualties, and there were nearly 2,000 people who died in our hands alone, and the wounded were doubled. Now. On the enemy's side, there should be less than 3,000 people who can fight, and the body is also scarce, who will dare to fight at night? ”

Narumatsu Nobukatsu thought for a moment and responded, "It's a samurai?!" Right. He was a samurai of the Imagawa family's military power. ”

Roche Nobela nodded in agreement. smiled: "That's right, the Imagawa family's military strength will not exceed a hundred samurai." Coupled with some young elites, the number of people stealing the city will not exceed five hundred, and if we continue to harass the main gate, we will definitely put most of our forces at the main gate. If only one person discovers the enemy, their plan will be in vain. Besides, they only have one chance. ”

Cheng Song Nobusheng nodded again and again, and when he heard Luo Xinliang's last sentence, he was puzzled: "Why?" ”

Luo Xinliang looked at the deep night sky and said meaningfully: "The tiger whiskers I am waiting for are easy to dial?" As he spoke, he said to several ashigaru group leaders around him, "Did I let you wait for the prepared scarecrow to tie up?" Don't they want us to disperse our forces? Then give them a good look. ”

The head of the Zhuzu Light Group immediately sneered: "Hey! As he spoke, in the eastern, southern, and northern directions of the city, figures flickered under the swaying of torches.

Insisting on the situation, the retainer of the Imagawa family, who was watching the enemy situation in Zawang Castle from a hillside high outside the city, patted his knee and shouted: "Okay, the guards of Zawang Castle have been fooled, and the garrison of thousands of defenders is more than enough on one side, but it has to be spread to all sides." It's sparse, and even if you find a strong attack and want to come for reinforcements from other places, it's too late. ”

Okabe Motonobu, who was standing not far from him, heard the retainer's loud cheers, and after taking a closer look, he also somewhat agreed with the retainer's opinion. And this retainer also turned his head and said with a smile: "Okabe Tanba Mamoru, please take care of me later." ”

It turned out that in order to ensure that this sneak attack was foolproof, and in order to save the lives of the soldiers, the samurai and young soldiers of various retainers and wealthy families were organized into the raid team to act together, and the pillar force of this retainer's family was naturally among them.

Okabe Motoshin naturally understood what this retainer meant, so he bowed and said, "Each other!" "Okabe Motonobu in order to avoid the retainers of the Imagawa family and the wealthy clan from having any objections to his temporary co-optation. He also incorporated the samurai and elites of his own family into the sneak attack army.

And after Okabe Motonobu responded. The retainer didn't bring it up again. He just said to one of the warriors beside him: "Give them one more time, from the east of the city, close the formation to the river, so that the shadows in the city can be seen more clearly." ”

So not long after, on the wall of the royal city, Cheng Song Xinsheng sighed lightly, took two steps forward, and said, "Young master, are they here again?" "When I look up. From a distance, it is not real, the shadows are sufficient, and the blur is a large area. The appearance of thirty or forty flags, a cursory glance, the scale of one or two thousand people, it seems that the whole army has been dispatched, beating gongs and drums, shouting loudly, faintly in the ears.

Luo Shiran, who was also standing on the city wall, smiled softly and commanded in a low voice: "Act according to the original plan." He said. He looked at the stars in the sky and said, "It's ugly time." There was still an hour to go, so everyone squinted for a while. ”

On the fourth day of June in the third year of Yonglu (i.e., 1560), at the moment of Yin, when people were most difficult, Luo Shi Xinliang, who was half-sitting at the head of the throne city, suddenly heard a low bird call, the corners of his mouth cracked slightly to reveal a cruel smile, and he held the handle of the small chest cut knife inserted in the ground with one hand, and muttered: "It's coming!" ”

Narimatsu Nobukatsu, Imagawa Fury, Takahashi Shaoyun, Shimasaku, Maeda Toshiie, Hyakuzumi and others, who had been waiting for a long time, all quietly made a preparatory move to the people behind them after seeing Roche Nobuya's movements. So above the city gate, dozens of people slowly lifted the wooden barrels that had been prepared in their hands, ready to fall down at any time. At this time, there was no other sound in the silence around them, and everyone quietly waited for the new order to arrive.

The silence in the city can only be heard the sound of rapid breathing, after a bloody battle, the first skill that the defenders learned on the battlefield is to obey orders, only by obeying orders can they save their lives, in the absence of orders, everyone maintains a silent movement, without making a sound.

Outside the city, the retainer of the Imagawa family, who was in charge of the sneak attack, was walking on the battlefield outside the city that was sprinkled with blood yesterday, and from time to time he could see the corpse not far away from the shadows, and he forced himself to endure nausea and vomiting to move forward, so that he did not make a sound.

The warriors and elite soldiers beside him also endured no noise except for the sound of marching, for fear of causing movement in the city, so that the city would discover them in advance.

Behind these men was Okabe Motonobu himself, leading a large army to wait, and as soon as the gates of the city were opened, he led the army to rush in.

Finally, when he was close to the gate of Zaiwang Castle, the retainer of the Imagawa family stopped, and he looked up, only to see that there were few torches at the head of the castle, and by the faint light of the stars, he could only see the dark city wall, and there were no bows, no arrows, and no shadows of the defenders at the head of the wall.

Suddenly seeing that there was nothing on it, this retainer Fan suddenly had a heart palpitation, the city gate was already close at hand, but the feeling of heart palpitations became stronger and stronger, and when he looked up again, he was suddenly shocked in his heart: "Not good, there is an ambush!" ”

The Imagawa family samurai and elite soldiers behind him saw that this retainer was motionless, but they did not continue to stop, they had already come to this step, and it was impossible to retreat, and the few samurai who rushed to the front clenched their swords, and looked at this retainer with a threatening look in their eyes.

This retainer knew that if he didn't move forward, he would be the first to die when the fight broke out later, so he had to cover his head and continue to move forward with a fluke mentality.

"Pour!"

At this moment, a calm and powerful voice floated down from the city, and then everyone looked up and saw dozens of figures suddenly appear at the head of the city, a large basin of slimy liquid poured down, poured on the bodies of the people under the city and the land around them, the ground was so slippery that everyone almost fell, some people touched a handful of black liquid on their faces, put it on the tip of their nose and smelled it, and immediately shouted in horror: "Oil, it's fire oil!" ”

As he spoke, a torch fell from the castle and fell to the ground, which was unusually bright, and the retainers of the Imagawa family rushed to the rear like crazy when they saw the torch falling, trying to escape from the vicinity of the city gate, only to hear a "bang", and the ground near the gate of the entire royal castle was ignited, and dozens of Imagawa samurai and elite soldiers in the front were like fire men "ah, ah" and ran around, thus igniting more people around.

The retainer also fell because he ran too fast at this time, and fell directly to the ground, and before he could get up again, he was trampled on by the samurai and elite soldiers of the Imagawa family who were also running away in a hurry, and finally gradually lost his breath.

As the land near the city gate suddenly burst into flames, more and more sneak attack soldiers were set on fire, causing the greatest chaos, which led to more people falling to the ground in the chaos, causing a chain reaction. In the light of the fire, the archers at the head of the city took aim and fired, and the iron cannons made a loud noise.

In the distance, as soon as Okabe Motoshin saw the chaos ahead, he immediately raised his voice and shouted, "Retreat!" Fast! Fall back! He couldn't care about the safety of the sneak attack in front of him anymore, and planned to withdraw from the battlefield first before talking about anything else, so he hurriedly led the people around him to retreat to the back, and the many troops behind him were also stunned after seeing the scene in front at this time, so they had to withdraw with Okabe Motonobu.

It's just that the speed of their retreat is naturally not as fast as the speed of those who were lit by fire in front of them, so before Okabe Nobumoto and the others could run a few steps, many routs rushed into their ranks, and in the darkness, this naturally caused even greater chaos.

"It's such a great opportunity, and you can't miss it. Trumpet! At this time, Luo Xinliang, who was above the head of the royal city, immediately said.

"Woo, woo, woo......" Immediately, a series of conch horns sounded in the royal city.

"Kill! Kill! Kill ......" Not long after the horn sounded, a large army suddenly appeared near Zaowang Castle, shouting loudly while slowly slaughtering the army of the Imagawa family in the midst of chaos.

"Oh no, I've been tricked!" Okabe Motonobu, who was in the midst of the chaos, saw this scene and immediately exclaimed.
