When the drummer gave the order, the drumsticks fell heavily, and with a sound, the Mufu team, who was guarding the bottom of the watchtower, immediately led the troops forward to expel them, and suppressed the miscellaneous soldiers who were running wildly because they were frightened.

Aoki Daizen was silent, stepped off the stage, drew the sword at his waist, leaped forward, crashed into the chaotic miscellaneous soldiers, swung his knife and slashed, killed more than four or five people in a row, rushed through the crowd, and arrived in front of a Shinano wealthy clan who did not obey the order to stop the people, but made a loud noise, trying to turn the panic into a roar.

He castrated extremely quickly, from stepping down to jumping in front of the other party, it only took a dozen breaths, and the wealthy man was terrified, knowing that it was not his opponent, and turned around and wanted to escape. Aoki chased after him from behind, reached out and grabbed his arm, and kicked him in the crook of the leg.

The wealthy man fell to his knees involuntarily, and Aoki Daizen picked up his hair bun and placed a horizontal knife in front of his neck, like killing a chicken, and slashed his throat with a casual stroke.

Aoki Daizen's saber had been broken in the previous battle, and the one he was using now was the most common Ise sword in the Takashi Mori army, and it was extremely sharp, and it circled around the opponent's neck and removed its head.

The samurai's headless body knelt in front of the man, blood gushing out from the cut in his neck, splattering the killer all over his body.

There are many ways for people to die, if it is a kind of luck to be killed by a knife, then being cut off alive is an extremely tragic way to die, and it is a kind of deterrent to people nearby. Where had the Shinano soldiers around them seen such a method of execution?

Seeing that the samurai, who were still yelling at him, were killed so easily, and without their heads, they were all terrified, and they fell to their knees one after another, not daring to move.

After slashing a few people in a row, the chaos in the Imagawa military camp was successfully quelled, and the disheveled miscellaneous soldiers were forced onto the battlefield by the Mufu team with knives and knives, many of them did not even have weapons in their hands, and even more barefoot, but the Mufu team didn't care about these, and those who walked slowly were whipped up.

The military camp stabilized, and Gao Shisheng turned to watch the battle with all his might. With the cloud ladder leaning against the wall, Hasegawa Hayabusa led the crowd to climb up, and there was a chaotic battle in Torade Maru, most of which occurred between the defenders, but Shimazaki Keishinobu and Ono Tadaaki and others were not affected much.

Shimazaki Keishinobu suddenly received a call from Shaotian Shigetaka in the middle of the night, and he couldn't help but suspect Dou Dasheng.

If Ono Tadaaki sees him in the future, he may not think much about it, as the so-called thief has a weak heart, and the military discussion that was originally very ordinary has fallen now, and it has become a matter of being noticed by others, and the other party wants to take the opportunity to trick him into killing him in the past, plus Ono Tadaaki is fanning the flames on the side.

Frightened and frightened, he simply raised troops overnight, and after killing the envoy who came to summon him, he took forty or fifty ronins under his command to join forces with the Togakure ninjas in the city, and set fire to the Torade Maru everywhere, wanting to take advantage of the chaos to attack and kill the main gate of the castle tower where Shaotian Shigetaka was located.

Senkokuji Castle is burdened with the danger of sublime mountains, using deep ravines, undulating terrain and mountain streams, divided into a number of independent curvatures connected by covered bridges, even if the outermost Torademaru is lost, as long as these fortifications are used well, the number of Imagawa troops outside the city will be doubled, and all the armies can work together to defend the mountain.

As a critical pass between Shinano and Hokuriku, the Takeda family acquired it and made it a vital base against the Echigo Nagao Army.

Takeda Shingenma sent people to repair the castle without stopping, and many of the imperial equipment on the head of Torade Marujo Castle were carefully designed by the famous city builder and military advisor Yamamoto Haruki, and it can be said that without the help of these equipment, the Imagawa army would have invaded the castle long ago.

There are many more hidden in the inner city, such as these institutions, and the Takeda family was not only 'repairing' the castle in the first place, but simply rebuilding the castle.

In fact, in the Warring States Period, when the national collapse was not introduced, the difficulty of attacking the castle was known only by standing on a high place and overlooking the entire mountain castle.

However, if you want to hold the fortress unscathed, you need a corresponding force. As long as the troops are sufficient, not only inside the city, but also in the outer city, you can also use the barriers and terrain of the outer city to meet the enemy head-on. Of course, there must also be food and weapons commensurate with the number of troops.

Only in this way can the functions of the various wheels be realized and the fortifications of the comprehensive defense can be harmonized.

As Takeda Shingen said, 'Man is a city', no matter how strong a castle is, someone must be stationed to defend it, and Shoda Shigetaka no longer has the strength to defend all the castles, and many of the curtains have been almost completely abandoned.

The ashigaru in the castle is nothing more than barely supporting the core areas such as the Honmaru Castle Tower, Anyun Temple, and Torademaru Qulun, otherwise Ono Tadaaki and the others would not have infiltrated the castle so easily.

The most important thing is that the interior of the defenders of Senkokuji Castle has actually begun to split, and most of the wealthy clans in Anyun County are no longer trustworthy, and now the ones who can ensure loyalty are the monks of Anyun Temple and the ronin team of Shimazaki Keishinobu.

The miscellaneous soldiers of the wealthy clan of Anyun County, who had not been allowed to be added to the Ronin team before, in addition to being really weak in combat power, also did not want this few credible people to become wavering.

The ashigaru team that patrols the night are all cronies of the brothers Shaotian Shigetaka and Shintsu Shigetaka, and the main garrison area is also the inner city.

Most of the wealthy families who are not trusted by the two, or who think that they may have been rebelled, are arranged to be stationed in Torademaru, and in case the city is really broken, they will contact the people and monks of Anyun Temple to continue to hold on.

At night, Shintsu Shigetaka finally persuaded Shaoda Shigetaka to lead a few cronies to abscond back to Pingchang Castle through the secret passage of His Excellency the Tenshu Castle at night.

Shao Tian Shigema cherished Shimazaki Keishin's bravery, coupled with the two of them to change the contract, for the sake of righteous brothers, he couldn't bear to abandon him, so he sent someone to invite him over overnight and fled together.

But he didn't want to, so he let himself be in a situation of being under siege.

The brothers Shaotian Shigetaka and Shinjin Shigenari stood on the city tower, looking at the chaotic soldiers coming from all directions, and they were at a loss, but they didn't know that these chaotic troops were even more chaotic than him, and they couldn't tell who was the enemy and who was the friend.

However, there is one point, which makes people see clearly, whether it is the rebellious soldiers who want to sacrifice the city to the Imagawa army, or the army that wants to resist to the death, they all go to the castle tower where Shaotian Shigetaka is located, and fight for it.

Dozens of ashigaru garrisoned near the castle tower, where did they dare to let them approach, fought and retreated all the way, fled into the building to close the door, and then pushed heavy objects to seal the wooden door, only to temporarily block the rebels outside.
