Chapter 935, Reinforcements Lift the Siege,

It is said that the military army under Kochi Castle was surrounded by more than 200,000 soldiers and civilians in Ninomiya Kazuya. Ninomiya Kazuya urged the army and civilians to besiege the Ming army day and night. The Ming army used earth and stone to shield and resist the attack of the Japanese army and civilians. The vicious battle was from morning to night, from late to morning, and from morning to night, and the ground was already covered with thousands of corpses, but the vicious battle did not stop at all. The Japanese army attacked the camp of the Ming army from all directions, and there was hardly a moment of pause in the ups and downs; The Ming army continued to plug the gaps, and the number of casualties rose in a straight line! It was a battlefield of blood and fire, and the whole earth seemed to boil.

The fierce battle lasted until noon on the third day, and Kazuya Ninomiya suddenly led more than 10,000 elites to rush to the south of the Ming camp. The protective earthen wall of the southern camp has been seriously damaged in a few days of fierce fighting, and now Ninomiya Kazuya suddenly led the elite to charge, and the defending side felt that it could not be resisted, and the entire defense line was broken through in many places in an instant! The Japanese army that rushed into the camp was about to expand the results of the battle, but was hit head-on by the Ming crossbowmen, only to see the arrows like flying locusts fly away, and the Japanese army fell in pieces! But then the Japanese army rushed up again! The Ming crossbowmen immediately retreated, and the only reserve team fought bravely! I saw the officers and soldiers of both sides colliding together and fighting bloodily! Swords and swords flew with flesh and blood, and the soldiers on both sides fell in a pool of blood!

The Japanese army besieging on all sides further intensified their attack, only to see that the Japanese army inside and outside was constantly attacking the Ming army's defense line like a sea of tides! The Ming soldiers suffered heavy casualties and struggled to support, but the enemy was outnumbered, and the defense line was constantly torn through the gap! Seeing that the defense of the Ming army is crumbling!

Boom...... Boom...... Boom...... ...... bang, the sound of war drums suddenly broke into the noisy and tragic battlefield.

The soldiers on both sides who were fighting were stunned. Many followed, and saw a knight appear on the hill to the northwest, holding a banner aloft aloft. Immediately, I saw tens of thousands of paces rushing across the hills like sea water! The soldiers of the Ming Army were all very surprised, but the Japanese soldiers showed panic!

Tens of thousands of Japanese troops in the northwest immediately turned around and prepared to meet the battle. In just a few moments, the rolling tide of soldiers fiercely crashed into the middle of the Japanese army! The Japanese defense line couldn't resist it at all, and it was rushed to pieces in an instant! The tide of Ming soldiers poured into the enemy formation and moved forward, only to see iron hooves trampling flesh and bones, swords and guns raising blood and water, and the soldiers were unstoppable! The Japanese warriors rushed forward frantically, but they were instantly overwhelmed by the rolling tide and disappeared without a trace! In just a moment's effort, the Japanese army formation was crushed, and the Tibetan army was defeated, and the wolves rushed to run in all directions!

Immediately, the Ming cavalry rushed into the middle of the Japanese army, and the thousands of troops and horses were invincible, and the flesh and blood of the Japanese people were killed with a big axe! The combat effectiveness of the main force of the Ming Dynasty is really extraordinary!

The military army, which was originally in a desperate situation, saw that the reinforcements were coming and killed the Japanese army as a whole, and their morale was greatly boosted, and they immediately counterattacked in an all-round way, and the armies attacked the Japanese people from all sides under the leadership of the generals!

On the battlefield, the soldiers of both sides mingled together and fought fiercely, like two waves of different colors intertwined; The sound of killing soared into the sky, and his eyes were full of flesh and blood.

Kazuya Ninomiya urged his subordinates to resist desperately, but those samurai were fine, but the general Ashigaru and militia were already flustered, and many people involuntarily turned around and ran for their lives! The Japanese resisted for a while, like a broken embankment in the face of the stormy waves, and finally collapsed! The Japanese army completely collapsed, and the remnants of the defeated army rushed back to inform, scrambling to be the first, trampling on each other! The momentum of the Ming army was even greater, sweeping all the way, killing the corpses of the Japanese army all over the place, and the blood-stained wasteland!

The Ming army pursued and killed under the city gate. Ergonghe, who fled into the city, was also worried that the Ming army had rushed into the city, and despite the fact that there were still many people who failed to enter the city, he urgently ordered the city gate to be closed.

Even though the city gate was closed, there were still thousands of Japanese people outside the city, and when they saw the city gate closed, they were in an uproar and did not know what to do. The Ming army immediately caught up, and the Japanese people on the city wall watched the Ming army mercilessly kill their compatriots, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and corpses were everywhere! Fear and anger again!

After the Ming army slaughtered all the Japanese people outside the city, they returned to the camp with a prisoner who was lucky enough to pick up a life. The Great War is over.

Seeing the enemy retreating, Kazuya Ninomiya immediately ordered someone to check the damage. I don't know what happened after that, my subordinates reported: "General, our army's losses are almost average!" Ninomiya Kazuya David was depressed, frowned and muttered: "Didn't I ask Kuroyama Taro to ambush the reinforcements of the Ming Dynasty?" Why did the reinforcements still arrive? ”

At this moment, a samurai rushed to the front and knelt down and said, "General, Kurotaro is here!" ”

Kazuya Ninomiya immediately looked behind the samurai, and saw Taro Kuroyama, who was covered in blood, rushing straight towards him, and his heart suddenly became puzzled.

Kuroyama Taro ran to Kazuya Ninomiya, knelt down with a thud, and said in great shame: "General, we have been defeated!" ”

Although Kazuya Ninomiya had already expected it, he couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, and asked urgently: "How could your reinforcements ambush the enemy fail?" Did someone leak the news? ”

Kurotaro shook his head and said, "No one leaked the news. The enemy entered our ambush as the general had predicted, and we attacked at once. At the beginning, the battle was going well, the enemy was caught off guard, suffered heavy casualties, and was about to be crushed by our army! But," Kuroyama Taro's face showed a look of fear, and he continued, "But the will of those Ming warriors is really amazing! Not only was it not overwhelmed by us, but it launched a fierce counterattack! Our army fought desperately, but they couldn't resist it at all, and they were killed all over the field! Those Ming warriors are not human beings at all, they are fierce tigers, hungry wolves, and devils in hell! They kept charging on the corpses, as if they didn't know the fear at all! Our army was completely crushed by them in the end! ”

Ninomiya Kazuya was depressed and angry, and asked angrily, "Since you have been defeated, why don't you come back and report it quickly?" Montenegro Taro hurriedly said: "I have already rushed back as fast as I can!" "Where is Ninomiya Kazuya willing to believe, and ordered the samurai to detain Taro Kuroyama and wait for disposal. Kuroyama Taro shouted injustice vigorously, but Kazuya Ninomiya ignored it.

Kazuya Ninomiya turned his head to look at the corpses all over the city with bloodshot eyes, and couldn't help but say angrily: "If we had learned the news of the failure of the ambush earlier, how could our army have suffered such heavy losses!" At this point, Ninomiya Kazuya wanted to kill Taro Kuro, but after all, he was one of his most trusted high-ranking samurai who had followed him for many years, so he didn't want his life.

Teng Jian knelt in front of Lin Chong and pleaded guiltily: "General, the last general is incompetent, and he almost caused the whole army to fall into a place of no return!" ”

Liu Zhiliang walked down to help Teng Huan, patted his arm, and said, "It's not your fault, it's the general's fault!" Then he frowned and said: "The enemy army retreated into Songshan in separate ways, and the intention was very obvious, that is, to disperse our army. However, I didn't take it seriously, and even divided my troops to attack according to the enemy's intentions, and as a result, I fell into the enemy's trap! Although in the end the enemy did not succeed, but our army also suffered a lot of losses as a result! ”

Glancing at the generals, he said, "When this battle is over, this general will definitely ask His Majesty for his guilt!" Now it's time for you to work together to break the deadlock! The generals shouted in unison: "Obey the general's orders!" ”

Liu Zhiliang walked to the map, and the generals surrounded him.

At the same time, Kazuya Ninomiya was also discussing strategy with his generals and retainers.

Ninomiya Kazuya pointed to Songshan and said, "The enemy's main force of tens of thousands of horses has come to inform that the Ming army in the direction of Songshan should only have 30,000 people." And we have sixty or seventy thousand soldiers and horses guarding Songshan, so we can order them to take this opportunity to attack and encircle and annihilate this Ming army! As long as this Ming army is annihilated, the entire battle situation will become very favorable to us! ”

A retainer dressed in a scribe's robe said worriedly: "Although the Ming army currently in Songshan is only 30,000, it is the main elite!" Although the young master of the second palace has sixty or seventy thousand troops in his hands, he is afraid that it will be ...... to deal with thirty thousand Ming elites" When even a samurai rebuked him, "How can we Yamato warriors be so cowardly!" Another samurai said excitedly: "Our Yamato warriors are the bravest warriors in the world, more than twice as many as the enemy army, and there is no reason why we can't win!" The generals and samurai present echoed and blamed the retainer. When the retainer saw that the crowd was so excited, he said no more.

Ninomiya Kazuya continued: "After Ninomiya Katsuto defeated the Ming army, the Ming army outside the city will definitely retreat immediately when they get the news, and then it will be time for us to counterattack!" At that time, the enemy must have been panicked, and our army must have swept away the enemy army in one go! The samurai generals only felt that the general's plan was perfect, and they all nodded excitedly. Ninomiya Kazuya saw that everyone had no objections, so it was decided.

After the meeting was dismissed, the only retainer who raised an objection caught up with Yoshimaru of Chozong and Ibu, "My lord, my lord, please wait a minute. ”

Changzong Yishou stopped, glanced at him, and said with a smile: "It's Ishii-kun, is there something wrong?" "It turns out that this retainer is called Ishii Kamito, and he is the head of the Ishii family. This Ishii family is also a daimyo of Shikoku, but this Ishii family is a retainer of Kazuya Ninomiya.

Master Ishii bowed slightly to the head of the sect and my department, "My lord, your wisdom is recognized all over the world, why didn't you persuade Lord Ninomiya just now?" ”

Changzong I Yishou smiled and asked, "What should I persuade him?" ”

Ishii said angrily, "Can't you see it?" Ninomiya-sama's plan is actually very difficult to execute! ”

Changzong Yishou smiled: "I think the strategy of Lord Ninomiya is very clever!" Seeing that Ishii was about to speak, he intercepted him and said, "I know what you have to say. But don't be too afraid of the Ming people! I believe that Young Master Ninomiya will definitely be able to defeat the Matsuyama Ming Army with more than twice the number of troops! ”

Ishii hurriedly said, "Why did your lord say that? We've suffered so many painful failures, and it's time to learn our lesson! The Ming army is a tiger and wolf beast, although the young master of the second palace is twice as large as the enemy army, but these cases may be okay to defend, but if they are used to attack the Ming army, I am afraid that the egg will hit the stone and kill himself! ”

"Ishii-kun! How can you grow the morale of others and destroy your own prestige! Although the Ming army is very strong, I absolutely believe that our Yamato samurai are twice as large as the enemy, and there is no reason why we cannot win! We have to believe in that! He then stepped forward and asked, "Is there any other way than to make such a desperate bet now?" Kamito Ishii was stunned. Changzong and my department said: "Now it can only be a battle against the water!" I hope Asumasu will bless you! Ishii-kun don't think about it, just carry out the orders of Lord Ninomiya. With that, he led his trusted warriors and turned around.

Ninomiya Kazuya's order reached all armies and teams, and all the Japanese samurai Ashigaru and the civilian army were ready to hold on to the order, just waiting for the Ming army to attack. The Ming army, on the other hand, was in the woods near the large-scale view of the barracks, which were brightly lit day and night, and the sound of ping-pong objects was constantly being heard day and night. The Japanese people know that the Ming people are rushing to make all kinds of siege equipment, as long as they wait until the siege equipment is ready, the enemy will launch a siege. Everyone prayed silently in their hearts, praying that Katsuto Ninomiya's attack would be a complete victory.

Time passed, and the Japanese only felt that the days were like years.

In the evening of that day, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the northern city, and I saw a warrior riding a horse and galloping under the city gate, shouting loudly: "I am a samurai under the command of the young master of the second palace, and I have a military intelligence report to the second palace lord, open the city gate quickly!" ”

The high-ranking samurai who was in charge of guarding the castle gate heard that it was a person sent by Katsuto Ninomiya, and immediately ordered someone to open the castle gate. The samurai immediately rode in. The gates were shut.

Kazuya Ninomiya heard the report that Katsuto Ninomiya had sent a samurai to report the news, and immediately summoned him. I saw that a dusty warrior couldn't come up quickly, and knelt down and said, "My lord, the young master of the second palace sent me to report on the military situation!" ”

"Has Katsuto Ninomiya already attacked? The result? Kazuya Ninomiya asked urgently.

"As soon as the young master of the second palace received the order of the adult, he immediately attacked, and he has already won a complete victory, and completely annihilated the 30,000 Ming elites outside the city! Countless killed, more than 10,000 prisoners, and countless captured! The young master of the second palace specially ordered me to report the victory to the second palace lord! ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised, and their faces were full of excitement.

Kazuya Ninomiya turned his head and said excitedly to everyone: "Everyone, it is really the blessing of Amaterasu!" The 30,000 Ming army in Songshan was wiped out with one drum! A retainer immediately stepped forward to ask for battle and said, "My lord, the young master of the second palace has won a complete victory, and it is a good time for us to fight back!" I would like to be the striker, and be the first to get into battle! All the samurai retainers also asked for their lives, and their morale was like a rainbow for a while.

Ninomiya Kazuya didn't immediately express his position, and looked at Changzong and my department. Changzong Yishou immediately said: "I think we should wait, wait for the enemy forces outside the city to start retreating, and then we will make a full-scale assault!" Kazuya Ninomiya smiled and said, "I think the same way, it's really the same as the hero!" Changzong Yishou hurriedly humbled himself and said: "My lord praised it falsely! The only hero of our Shikoku is Ninomiya-sama, and I'll be satisfied as long as I can follow Ninomiya-sama! Kazuya Ninomiya burst out laughing.

In the middle of the night, Kazuya Ninomiya received a report and hurried to the city wall and looked out of the city. I saw that the lights of the camp of the Ming army outside the city were dim, and I couldn't see anything, which was completely different from the previous scene of building siege equipment with bright lights.

Kazuya Ninomiya turned his head and asked the Nagazong Yoshimori next to him: "What do you think?" ”

Changzong and my department said with a smile: "I want to cover it." The scout's discovery should be correct, the enemy army is secretly retreating. ”

Ninomiya Kazuya thought for a moment, and immediately ordered the Yoshimaru and others of the Chozong Department: "Immediately pass the order, and all the ministries will act according to the original plan!" The crowd agreed in unison.

Immediately, the city became lively, and the soldiers and horses gathered together, and as far as the eye could see, they saw that they were crowded.

The city gate was opened, and more than 100,000 Japanese people poured out of the city under the personal leadership of Ergong Kazuya, and went straight to the Ming army camp to kill.

The Japanese army rushed to the Ming camp, only to see the Ming sentries fleeing in a hurry. Ninomiya and also worried that the Ming people would escape, so he immediately waved his army into the camp. However, it was found that the camp was basically empty, and the Ming army had retreated. Ninomiya Kazuya judged that the Ming army should not have left far, and immediately waved his army in pursuit. More than 100,000 horses swept over the barracks like a tidal wave, heading straight to the northwest! The sound of rumbling footsteps was mixed with the neighing of horses, and the silence of the night was completely broken!

After chasing for a short time, the Japanese army saw the flickering firelight in front of them, and the figures were longing, which was the retreat of the Ming army. The soldiers of the Japanese army were very excited when they saw this scene, and they rushed forward one after another! Seeing that the Japanese army brigade was chasing after them, those Ming troops were terrified, discarded all their baggage and materials, and fled for their lives. The Japanese army kept pursuing, encountering more and more Ming troops, all the Ming troops were throwing away their armor and running in a hurry, and the discarded baggage materials were piled up on the official road in the field!

Ninomiya Kazuya was worried that the Ming army would escape, and kept urging the army to chase after him, and everyone was angry, and the roar echoed between heaven and earth.

Unconsciously, the sun rose, and the Japanese army chased the Ming rout to an area. It is a huge rice field with lush mountains on the left and a babbling river on the right. Although the river is not very wide, it is rough and the water is not small.

Ninomiya Kazuya saw that the fleeing Ming army was in front, and immediately waved his army to chase after him. Countless people tread water in the rice fields, and the sound of rattling and rattling rang out. Everyone was in a hurry to chase after the fleeing Ming army, and they couldn't take care of the rice in front of them.

Suddenly, thousands of Ming troops appeared in front of them, lining up and blocking the way. Kazuya Ninomiya pulled out his katana and shouted, and tens of thousands of Japanese people immediately howled and rushed away. A rain of arrows suddenly flew out from behind the Ming army, crossed the head of the Ming army, and fell into the middle of the Japanese people, and many Japanese people were shot down in the rice fields! However, the momentum of the Japanese charge did not decrease slightly, and they continued to rush towards the Ming army! Many of the Japanese people sent arrows, but they did not cause any damage when they hit the huge shield of the Ming army!

The tide of Japanese people surged dozens of steps in front of the Ming army. Suddenly, the entire land collapsed violently, and the hundreds of Japanese troops who rushed to the front instantly fell into the pit! When he landed, the blood and water surged, and the screams rang out, and the Japanese soldiers who fell into the pit were skewered into meat skewers by the iron spears and bamboo sticks inserted at the bottom of the pit, and the flesh and blood were blurred and dripping with blood!

The Japanese army that followed quickly stopped, but the Japanese army behind did not know that the situation in front was still rushing forward, and countless people were crowded together, and as a result, many Japanese soldiers next to the pit were pushed into the pit, and they died, and the screams came one after another!

At this moment, the Ming army on the opposite side of the trap sent out another wave of arrows, and many Japanese soldiers were immediately shot to the ground. The soldiers of the Japanese army were blocked by a huge pit and could not advance, so they had to retreat, and were shot by the Ming army on the opposite side one after another, and they couldn't help but feel turbulent! The Japanese crossbowmen kept firing back, but the arrows shot by the Japanese crossbowmen were all blocked by Yan Yunjun's shields, and they didn't have any effect!

The Japanese troops retreated, and the retainers who led the army rushed to the front of Ninomiya Kazuya and reported: "My lord, the enemy has dug many huge pits, and they are well prepared, and we can't rush through!" ”

Kazuya Ninomiya looked ahead and frowned, feeling a little surprised in his heart, the scene in front of him was really a bit unexpected for him.

Woowoo...... A sharp whistling sound suddenly came from the left. Ninomiya couldn't help but be surprised, and quickly turned his head to look, and saw countless huge black shadows flying down from the green hills next to the table! I was terrified! At this moment, someone exclaimed: "Guns and arrows! Guns and arrows! ……”

With such a frightened cry, countless guns and arrows roared and fell into the middle of the Japanese people, and the huge power of the guns and arrows nailed many Japanese people to death in the rice fields. Before the Japanese people came back to their senses, a huge explosion suddenly sounded, and a ball of fireball rose up in the crowd, and a powerful shock wave wrapped in the human stump flew all over the sky!

When the Japanese were attacked so suddenly and violently, they couldn't help but stir. The retainer Ishii Kazuto hurriedly shouted at Ninomiya Kazuya, "My lord, we are in ambush!" ”

Kazuya Ninomiya came back to his senses. At this moment, a dense array of arrows flew down from the green hills, and many people in the crowd fell on their backs, and many people were shot down in the paddy fields.

Kazuya Ninomiya yelled urgently: "Retreat!" Retreat! ”

The Japanese soldiers quickly ran backwards, preparing to escape from the enemy's ambush circle in the direction they entered, and saw a surging crowd of people as far as the eye could see.

However, Ninomiya Kazuya saw from a distance that thousands of Ming troops also appeared at the entrance of the entrance, all of them in heavy armor and holding huge Mo swords, and they were the Mo Dao army with the strongest combat power in the Ming infantry army!

Ninomiya and couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, but at this time, he couldn't care about that much, and immediately ordered the army to break through.

The samurai, ashigaru and people's army monsters at the front screamed and rushed straight towards the Ming army's defense line. After a while, he rushed to the front of the Ming army's defense line more than a dozen paces. At this moment, countless black canisters suddenly flew out from behind the Mo Dao Army, falling into the middle of the Japanese people who were surging like a tide, and then a violent explosion sounded, and the fireworks instantly drowned the Japanese people at the head of the tide!

The momentum of the Japanese charge was paused, and then it slammed into the defense line of the Modao Army.

The Mo knife army swung the Mo knife together, and more than a thousand Mo knives seemed to be connected into a knife wheel and turned, and the first Japanese people were instantly cut apart, and their flesh and blood flew sideways! The Japanese people who followed them kept rushing forward, but they disintegrated in an instant as if they had been thrown into a meat grinder.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
