Chapter 695: Trapping City II
Chapter 695: Trapping City II
Ouchi Yoshixing stood in front of the battle for a whole day, always within the range of the Franc cannon.
At the end of the day, I just felt extremely exhausted, as if my whole body had been drained.
Ouchi Yoshixing said secretly: "I'm old." The body is not as good as it used to be. ”
In the past few days, although the Yongjun army and the Ouchi army have fallen behind, but counting the cards in their hands, this has been achieved by Ouchi Yoshixing's exhaustion.
He is in his fifties, although he has been exercising hard since childhood. But it can't stop the ravages of age. After setting up the defenses, he found a place under the city walls and slept hastily.
But Ouchi Yoshiko rested. The movements of the Ouchi army did not stop.
They didn't know how to use earth and stones, so they piled them all up in the gaps, and then poured the mixed mud into the cracks. This mud is not cement, and the reinforcement capacity is not strong. But it's better to do as much as you can do than to do nothing.
Even so, the wall became a weak point.
Because the wall has become a steep slope, the soldiers can climb it, and there is no need for rolling logs.
But it's a lot of work.
Ouchi Yoshiko is old and sleeps quite lightly. In his sleep, he heard the sound of carrying earth and stones faintly echoing in his sleep, and I don't know how long it took, Ouchi Yoshixing was suddenly awakened by the sound of shouting and killing.
He sat up abruptly and said, "What's the matter?" ”
Ouchi Yoshixing pointed out the place where the shouts of killing spread in the north.
In that direction, there were layers of shouts and killings, which seemed to wake up the silent night in an instant.
"Your Highness, the minister doesn't know. Then send someone to see it. ”
"No need." Ouchi Yoshixing's face was pale as if he was a dead man, and the whole person suddenly seemed to be dozens of years old, and said, "All of them are evacuated to the castle tower." ”
"Your Highness---" The person next to him didn't understand why Ouchi Yoshixing had this decision, listening to this voice, it was just a position that had just entered the city, and there was still a chance to get out.
"Where is the range of the Maori defense." Ouchi Yoshixing explained coldly. It doesn't matter if they can understand it or not.
The Mori family was the most powerful force in the city outside of the Ouchi clan.
He was not outstanding, but because all the families except the Maori family participated in the night raid battle, they were beaten in a hurry, and the losses were too great.
In Ouchi Yoshixing's view, if the Maori family guards carefully, they will never let the enemy in so easily, and if something happens, then there is only one possibility, that is, the Maori family has defected.
If it's just a Maori mutiny, that's fine. But Ouchi Yoshixing is worried that it will cause a chain reaction, and the family other than the Ouchi clan is really that reliable?
Ouchi Yoshihei didn't know.
It's enough to just not know.
At this moment, Ouchi Yoshiko didn't dare to trust anyone, so he had to retreat to the castle tower. In this way, the strength of the Ouchi clan can be preserved.
North Gate.
The entire North Gate is owned by the Maori family, but Ouchi Yoshiko's arrangement is not the only one, and Ouchi Yoshiko will definitely not trust anyone. Therefore, although he did not suspect the Maori family, he had already stationed more than 100 soldiers of the Ouchi clan near Chengmen.
They were near the city gates.
When the gates were opened abnormally, they immediately went to ask what was going on, and a battle broke out.
Maori didn't expect Ouchi Yoshixing to be so cunning. Originally, he wanted to Yongjun and directly occupy the castle tower in the center of the city, but as soon as the battle broke out, it alarmed everyone.
Mao Li said to Zhu Houhuang: "The minister's arrangement is inappropriate, and I ask His Royal Highness for forgiveness." The minister is willing to be the vanguard of His Highness and will atone for his crimes. ”
Zhu Houhuang looked at Maoli Yuanyuan with interest, and had to admit that Maoli Yuanyuan was a smart person.
Zhu Houhuang didn't have much trust in Maoli Yuanyuan, if it weren't for the fact that the Yongjun army had already controlled the city walls on both sides, and he was escorted by a master like Li Liangqin, he would definitely not be standing here.
The Maori family is very knowledgeable about current affairs.
If he lets the Yong army play the front, then the Maori army's troops are in the middle of the Yong's front army and the rear army, and if the Maori family repeats, then the forward will fall into a very dangerous situation.
And if Zhu Houhuang wants to prevent this, he must invest thousands of troops to watch the Maori army.
But let's not talk about it, whether Zhu Houhuang has so many spare troops, just talking about Nagasaki City, there is not so much space.
After all, Nagasaki Castle is a small place. There simply isn't that much room for too many people.
Therefore, it is wise for the Maori family to invite themselves as pioneers.
Zhu Houhuang said: "Let Gu see the bravery of the Maori family." ”
Maori said, "Hi. He bowed heavily to Zhu Houhuang.
He knew that this was related to the position of the Maori family in the Yongjun system, so he had to show his own use value.
He didn't know what to say to the samurai of the Maori family. All the samurai of the Mori clan seemed to have gone crazy and rushed towards the middle of the city.
As the battle began, the entire city of Nagasaki was awakened.
In the darkness, a complete Japanese civil war was fought, and the road from the north gate of Nagasaki to the so-called castle lord's mansion in the middle, or the castle tower, was only a thousand meters away, and was squeezed together by countless people.
The long knives shone in the darkness, and the sound of the battle was deafening.
Ouchi Yoshiko, while gathering the Ouchi clan's army into the castle lord's mansion, ordered all the troops in the city to flank the Maori family's troops.
Of course, at this time, it is also a question whether the order issued by Ouchi Yoshiko can be carried out.
Some simply stood still, but of course there were also troops loyal to the Ouchi clan who came from all directions.
Sometimes traitors are more hateful than enemies, and enemies are very angry when they meet.
The time when Zhu Houhuang was preparing for the sneak attack was close to the early hours of the morning, and in the midst of the noisy fighting on the side, the sun shone on the earth again, and I don't know how many people could no longer see the sunrise this time.
As the sun came out, the fighting between the two sides stopped for the time being.
A group of people surrounded Zhu Houhuang and walked on this ordinary street.
But this ordinary street is not ordinary at this moment. Zhu Houhuang felt that his feet were slimy, and most of his feet were covered with blood that had turned black. And the corpses were temporarily placed on both sides of the road, not even covered with a white cloth.
There were also a large number of wounded lying under the eaves on both sides of the street, looking no different from dead.
Zhu Houhuang was secretly surprised as he walked.
The Japanese are really ruthless enough.
Zhu Houhuang suddenly understood why Qi Jiguang saw the volunteer miners, why he thought it was a good soldier, Zhu Houhuang saw I don't know how many corpses along the way, whether it was from the Maori family or other families, most of them were injured and died head-on, and even more so for the samurai with family crests, almost everyone was stabbed several times.
And those wounded, even if they were bleeding profusely, there were few who moaned, and many of them continued to fight even if they were seriously injured. A lot of people have only one breath left.
It's really a good source of soldiers.
Zhu Houhuang said: "Call the military doctor to come over, treat them, and treat the wounded soldiers of the Maori clan together with the wounded soldiers of our army." ”
Maori said, "Thank you, Your Highness. ”
Zhu Houhuang said: "They are injured for Lone, how can Lone not take care of it, this battle of the Maori family for Lone's strength, Lone looks at it, Lone specially approves 20,000 taels of silver, and rewards the Muri family." ”
Maori said, "Thank you, Your Highness. ”
Zhu Houhuang's eyes became particularly gentle when he looked at the Maori family, not that Zhu Houhuang fell in love with the Maori family, but that Zhu Houhuang saw that there would be countless Japanese mercenaries fighting for him in the future.
And this opportunity started with the Maori family.
So, he had to treat the Maori family well.
And the Maori family is also very excited, 20,000 taels, almost equal to 20,000 copper coins, although the proportion is not the same in various places, but it is still a lot of money for the Maori family, almost equal to the Maori family's annual income.
How unhappy is it to let Maori Yuan.
Even the Maori family suffered heavy casualties in this battle, almost all the remaining more than 2,000 soldiers were disabled, and the heavy casualties were also opened, and the road to the city lord's mansion was opened.
But for Japan, people are not valuable.
