Chapter 692: The Night Attack is Over

Therefore, in the chaos of the Japanese, the lower echelons still maintained their organizational ability, but the organizational ability of the lower echelons of Sergeant Annan was far inferior to that of the Japanese.

If not in the night.

Perhaps the loss of Annan's soldiers will be even greater.

But even this has made Zhu Houhuang feel painful.

Zhu Houhuang used a clairvoyant mirror to see that a large number of corpses of soldiers were all Annan's soldiers.

From the point of view of clothing, the Japanese clothing is quite messy, and it is impossible to achieve uniform clothing at all. And the Annan army entrusted Zhu Houhuang with the blessing of wealth and wealth, and has unified the clothing.

So you can see at a glance who is dying.

Zhu Houhuang saw that the melee between the two sides could no longer be maintained, because although the two sides fought fiercely, they quickly divided into two sides.

Zhu Houhuang said: "The whole army is attacking,"

Under the personal leadership of Zhu Houhuang, the Yongjun of the two battalions pushed through the fence of the camp and forced the camp to line up. pressed on the Japanese troops.

With the order of Ouchi Yoshiko, all the Japanese soldiers followed their master and quickly retreated.

But Zhu Houhuang will not let them go.

The two battalions, which had been recuperating all night, chased them out.

Under Zhu Houhuang's requirements, the marching ability of the Yongjun army has always been one of the most important indicators among all the requirements, so the marching speed of the Yongjun army is far higher than that of the Japanese army.

They chased the tail of the Ouchi clan army and killed it.

Ouchi Yoshiko is also very decisive.

He knew very well that his men were tired. After a night of fierce fighting, he was already exhausted. So I can't get rid of the other party's pursuit.

So he left three or four thousand soldiers behind.

Of course, at this time, these foreign surnames are completely unreliable, they are the same as the Maori family, and the strength in their hands is not only their own, but also the family's.

If the loss is too great, their family owner will not be able to stand on his feet.

In the midst of the crisis, the Ouchi clan can only use the Ouchi clan's soldiers to fill this big hole.

It's just how can they stop the Yongjun army rushing over.

When the Yongjun saw that someone was blocking, they didn't need Zhu Houhuang's order, they immediately lined up to bring it, and the muskets fired a volley, and after a roar, the three thousand soldiers were beaten in pieces.

The Yongjun pursued and killed all the way, but still did not catch up with Ouchi Yoshiko under Nagasaki Castle.

However, it was not without harvest, from the Yongjun camp to the bottom of Nagasaki City, all the way to the field.

When Zhu Houhuang saw such a scene, he still couldn't get out of his heart with a depressed breath.

Because the losses of the four battalions in Annam were too great, almost more than half of them were lost, they could be combined into two battalions.

And in a night battle, many injured people couldn't survive because of excessive blood loss, that is to say, even if Zhu Houhuang beat the Ouchi clan to a half-crippled at the last moment, but Zhu Houhuang's army had been disabled before.

Zhu Houhuang returned to the camp and immediately asked Liu Bochen: "What is the situation, is it counted?" ”

Liu Bochen was the commander of the scuffle last night. At this moment, his face was also covered with blood, and he had several bandages on his body, and said: "There are no statistics, but the casualties are at least more than 10,000 people, and in the next month or two, don't let the Annan battalion fight." ”

After Liu Bochen said this, he hurriedly closed his mouth, lest he provoke Zhu Houhuang's anger.

Liu Bochen knew that in Zhu Houhuang's eyes, the Yongjun army was the most important, and the Annan army was just used to do hard work and tiring work.

That hasn't changed.

This time, why didn't Zhu Houhuang bring all the Yong army, but the Annan army with four battalions? Liu Bochen privately figured out that he was using the Annan Army as cannon fodder.

Seeing that it was time to siege the city, the troops that were used as siege cannon fodder could not fight. What's going on?

Liu Bochen was afraid that Zhu Houhuang would be angry.

Zhu Houhuang took a deep breath and said, "It's Lone's fault, Lonely's carelessness." Let the Annan army rest as if it were good, and when the ship comes, it will be transferred back to Busan to recuperate. ”

Liu Bochen said: "Thank you, Your Highness. ”

Zhu Houhuang sent Liu Bochen away. But facing the current dilemma.

Zhu Houhuang looked at Nagasaki City, which seemed to be emitting countless lights under the rising sun.

Zhu Houhuang said secretly: "Without the Annan Army, I won't attack the city?" Of course, he loves the Yongjun and does not want the Yongjun to suffer senseless losses, but he does not dare to let the Yongjun fight bloodily.

At this moment, he had secretly made up his mind that he would continue to bombard Nagasaki early tomorrow morning, and when Nagasaki City was broken, he would rush into the city with the Yongjun army as the lead.

Just when Zhu Houhuang was full of resentment.

Ouchi Yoshiko is not having a good time either.

A night attack turned into a sandwich meal. Ouchi Yoshixing brutally disabled the four battalions of Annan, but the biggest loss of the Ouchi clan was that when the comer retreated, he was pursued all the way by the Yong army.

All the troops who listened to Ouchi Yoshiko's orders were all descendants of the Ouchi clan, not descendants, and they could not bear such a mortal task.

Although Ouchi Yoshiko returned to the city with the remaining remnants, he found that there were only about 15,000 people left under his command, and the army that really belonged to the Ouchi clan was only 5,000 people.

With such a ratio, before, Ouchi Yoshiko was confident that he could control the army, but now he is a little apprehensive.

The first thing Yoshiyuki Ouchi did when he returned to the city was to celebrate this victory.

This one has to be a victory. On the tallest building in Nagasaki Castle, all the daimyo affiliated to the Ouchi clan were sitting, Ouchi Yoshixing said: "Last night's battle, although we suffered a lot of losses, but the Yongjun army suffered even greater losses, at least the troops they used to attack the city, there is not much left, as long as we persist, the reinforcements from Yamaguchi Castle will come to our aid, and at that time the Yongjun army can only retreat in the face of difficulties." ”

"Congratulations, Your Highness. A big victory over Mingkou. ”

The atmosphere seems to be fun.

When the banquet dispersed, Ouchi Yoshixing immediately splashed his face with cold water, and his drunken appearance immediately recovered, and asked, "How is the situation in the city?" ”

Kurokawa Yoshinori said, "All the families are still very peaceful, and there is no change. ”

Ouchi Yoshixing was a little disappointed, he felt that Kurokawa Yoshinori was still not good, and he was not as good as Zongshu in many things, and if Zongshi was here, he would not answer like this.

He will only reply that he has not noticed any changes yet.

Ouchi Yoshixing also felt in his heart that these vassal families were not so willing to live and die with the Ouchi clan, but they still didn't know the situation and didn't dare to act rashly.

When the situation is clear, maybe they are the ones who betrayed the Ouchi clan.

But how?

Ouchi Yoshiko fell into deep thought.

He had a feeling of internal and external distress.

Next.

When the sun had just risen, the artillery of the Yongjun army was already in place.

More than a dozen copper cannons aimed at a section of the city wall to bombard, of course, the accuracy of the copper cannons was not much better, but it was very different, most of them smashed on the city wall, a small number of them crossed the city wall, smashed into the city, or smashed on the ground.

Bombardment for a whole morning.

I have to say that Nagasaki Castle is too weak compared to the castle in the Central Plains, and there are not many cannons left, so I thought it would be bombarded for several days. It seems that it only takes three or five days of bombardment to make a gap.

This is not because the artillery is powerful, but because the walls of Nagasaki Castle are too scummy.

Ouchi Yoshiyuki immediately made two preparations, one was to fill the city wall, and at night he poured mud into the cracks in the city wall to fill the city wall.

But that's just scratching the surface. The city wall has been shaken out by artillery I don't know how many cracks, even if it is poured with mud, it is still a good thing.

The foundations of the walls were shaken, and they could be saved by this work of repair.

The second is that after this section of the city wall, dig a ditch, and after the ditch, build a short wall, which is used as a second layer of defense, which has the meaning of urn city.

After all, the number of artillery of the Yongjun army is also limited, and if you don't bombard it intensively, it takes too much effort to break the city wall, and if you concentrate on bombardment, then there are traces of the fallen city wall. It can be compensated for in a targeted manner.

Ouchi Yoshixing's key point is the second one, countless people under the city wall, digging trenches, digging out the soil, piling up on one side, and then many people are ramming the earth, loosening some soil, tamping down, and building a second city wall.

It's just that under such actions, it can't hide the fluctuation of people's hearts.
