Chapter 179: Breaking the Record
Is this still human?
Such thoughts echoed in everyone's hearts.
Even the samurai who climbed the ladder couldn't help but weaken their legs.
It's been almost a quarter of an hour, and no one has a firm foothold in the city, if there are many defenders in the city, it doesn't matter if the resistance is fierce, but there is only one person defending the city, which is mad.
Seeing this, Hosokawa Toyohisa immediately shouted at the top of his voice: "Those who climb the city will be rewarded with ten gold, those who injure the leader of the thieves will be rewarded with one hundred gold, and the leader of the thieves will be rewarded with a thousand gold!" β
There must be brave men under the heavy reward, and when they heard that the reward was so rich, the samurai who had been retreating became brave again.
Although the man in the city is fierce, he is also a man who can breathe, and when he finally runs out of strength, they firmly believe that this high-intensity consumption will not last.
"Click... Bang bang bang ......"
Li Qing put on two pairs of human-shaped mallets again, and swept his arms left and right, but whenever he was touched by the humanoid mallets, he would either break his tendons and fractures, or die on the spot, all of which would lose his combat effectiveness instantly.
There were no less than two hundred corpses in the city, lying on the ground, almost without a place to put his feet, Li Qing was still brave.
Today, he's going to break the record!
After another quarter of an hour, Li Qing's posture rose again, not because he was taller, but because there were too many people under his feet.
Four hundred of his enemies have died at his hands.
At the same time, Hosokawa Toyohisa's bounty was also doubled, vowing to kill Li Qing.
If such an opponent is not killed, I am afraid that I will not have a chance to kill it in the future.
With such a ability to command the army and such a force value, once its power grows, the consequences will be unimaginable.
No matter what the cost, you have to die.
There was an endless stream of climbers, and although no one had survived the city for more than ten breaths so far, the strength of the killing god had obviously decreased, and they even began to gasp for breath, which further confirmed their suspicions.
This man is not a god and can be killed!
If you can kill it, why can't you be killed by me?
In the face of great temptation, people tend to overestimate their own abilities, and when people are bold, they get rid of their initial fears.
"Bang bang!"
Li Qing threw both hands, and his two calves shot out, and the two warriors just stepped on the battlement, and before they could stabilize their bodies, they were knocked backwards and flew out.
The sound of bones breaking in mid-air sounded, and the blood of the two spurted wildly, and they died of exhaustion before they landed.
"Bang ......"
Li Qing raised his leg and swept it, and there was a short vacuum period within two meters of his body, taking advantage of this gap, he picked up a katana, jumped several meters, and swept it violently, "Poof......!" β
β¦
A quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour......
Li Qing's position is getting higher and higher, but the efficiency of killing the enemy is decreasing, and his true qi and physical strength are declining greatly.
As time passed, his breathing grew heavier.
More than a hundred years of true qi is finally flesh and blood, he is not an immortal.
However, he also killed enough people.
The corpses of the enemy were almost piled up to the battlement, and the exact number could not be calculated, not a thousand, but more than 800.
At this point, Li Qing finally achieved the strategic goal of losing 2,000 people before the enemy entered the city.
After calculating the time, the samurai of your own side have opened an absolute safe distance, and there is no need to fight again.
Although there is still the strength to fight again, there is no need to pursue the limit too much, and the enemy is currently strong, so it is necessary to leave some spare strength.
At this moment, a sound of falling bricks sounded ...... 'bang la la', followed by cheers.
Seeing this situation, Li Qing no longer hesitated, jumped into the city, and jumped off the city.
"Catch up with him and kill him." Hosokawa Toyohisa yelled, "He's dying, kill him, a reward of ten thousand gold!" β
After paying such a big price, it was finally consumed, and if he escaped, the previous losses would be in vain.
Soon, a group of people rushed into the city with a roar, but they didn't even see Li Qing's shadow.
"It's a pity!" Toyohisa Hosokawa gritted his teeth.
Hosokawa Katsuyuki stepped forward immediately and said indifferently: "Regardless of him, let's talk about the advanced city, how many weapons does he have now?" β
Hosokawa Toyohisa calmed down a little, and said respectfully: "There are only more than 3,000 people in total, and Inoue Saburo is helping us...... The loss of about 500 was counted, and then they attacked the city and fought a decisive battle with the Yamana clan...... Definitely less than 2,000, or even a small number of people in the city. β
After a pause, his voice turned smaller: "What about the armed forces of these thousands of mountain names right now?" β
Hearing this, Hosokawa Katsuyuki's brows furrowed, and he whispered back, "This is indeed a problem...... Are you familiar with the Han art of war, do you have a countermeasure? β
Hosokawa Toyohisa thought for a while and suggested, "We can first come up with a delaying strategy, promising that this city will still be managed by them, and we only need to give us a certain amount of money and food every month." β
"It's too cheap, Yamana." Hosokawa Katsuyuki said dissatisfied, "They are only 4,000 people, we are more than twice as many as them, this time we have taken out all the old books, how can we only make such a little?" β
Hosokawa Toyohisa persuaded: "This is just a delaying tactic, the most important thing at the moment is to kill that great god first, kill him, and then it will be much easier to get the Yamana clan." β
"No, no, no," Hosokawa Katsuyuki had a different opinion, "Yamana has been operating here for too long, your strategy of delaying the army is tantamount to letting the tiger return to the mountain, the so-called great god is indeed powerful, but the weapons in his hands are very small, and he has no foundation here, it is difficult to gain a firm foothold here." β
Hosokawa Toyohisa had a headache and said with a wry smile: "With his terrifying force value, once he is given a breath, he will definitely become our slogan enemy." β
"But have you ever thought that in such a big city, he wants to run, can we catch him?" Katsuyuki Hosokawa asked rhetorically.
"Huh? This ......"
Hosokawa Toyohisa was embarrassed.
The force value displayed by Li Qing is simply inhuman, although they are outnumbered, Hosokawa Toyohisa does not feel that he can catch it.
All kinds of signs prove that as long as this great god wants to run alone, no one can stop him.
It's not that you can't kill it, but you can't catch it.
"So, listen to me!" Hosokawa Katsuchichi, "I still use your set of words, but this is false, and let them stand in front, and when the obstacles are cleared, immediately attack them." β
He was ambitious: "I want this city!" β
"Let it be in front, they may not be willing!" Hosokawa was puzzled.
Hosokawa Katsuyuki sneered: "Now they have a choice?" β
"Uh...... Then I'll give it a try. β
Hosokawa Katsuyuki nodded: "Now that I have entered the city, I am not in a hurry to hurry, the siege of the city has been for so long, let the samurai have a good rest, eat and drink enough before marching, and only after resting can they have the strength to kill the enemy, anyway, the city is here, and I can't run." β
"Yes." Hosokawa Toyohisa bowed and turned to go.
~
"Quickly go and inform Saburo Inoue and ask him to bring the troops here." Li Qing said solemnly, "Tell him to bring all the warriors!" β
"Yes!"
β¦
Two hours later, Saburo Inoue led all the samurai to rush in.
When he saw that the great god was safe and sound, and that the descendant warriors were almost undamaged, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and at the same time was puzzled:
"Great God, are we going to defend the city without taking it?"
"No, I don't keep it." Li Qing shook his head lightly, the inner city is more difficult to defend than the outer city, the outer city can't be defended, and the inner city is not much better.
After this battle, he can see that it is not easy to defend the city here.
There is no strong high city, no big general cannons, and even the most basic equipment for defending the city, such as arrows, is worrying.
It is really not a good way to guard the city wall, which is not higher than the courtyard wall of the rich people of the Ming Dynasty, so it is better to fight it directly.
Saburo Inoue whispered: "Great God, those newcomers may not be trustworthy, in case they turn against the water in the battle, after all, ...... The opponent also had samurai from the Yamana clan. β
Li Qing bowed his head: "It's okay, you go and tell them that we don't fight the Yamana clan, only the Hosokawa clan." β
"What if the Yamana clan beats us?" Saburo Inoue hesitated, "After all, we destroyed the Yamana family!" β
"There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests, and if the lord of the Yamana clan is really angry, he will not follow the Hosokawa clan who came to rob them and turn the war into a jade silk." Li Qing said lightly: "He may not have heard of the allusion of cold lips and teeth, but he must understand this truth, if we lose, he will not be any better, the old bottom of the Hosokawa clan has been taken out, how can he let go of this piece of fat to his mouth?" βΞΠΈΠͺ.ΕΞοΌ§
Saburo Inoue didn't understand, just nodded: "Okay, I'll go ...... now"
He paused for a moment and asked, "Great God, how much have they attribution?" β
"No less than two thousand."
"That's fine." Saburo Inoue had a little more confidence and went happily.
Li Qing regained his true qi, while secretly calculating how many chances he had.
At this moment, his strength is 4,000, and the enemy army is roughly 12,000, but not all of these more than 10,000 are his enemies.
For example, the three or four thousand people of the Yamana clan, as long as the other party is not a fool, they will not help the Hosokawa clan beat him.
Li Qing didn't expect the other party to help him in turn, as long as he didn't help the Hosokawa clan deal with him.
As for these newcomers in his hands, Li Qing is not very worried, and he is not asking them to fight the old club, but to fight the old enemy, and the price offered by the old club is far less high than that of his own.
Taking a step back, even if he was defeated, these people would still have a way out, after all, they didn't attack the Yamana clan.
Based on this, you can use!
Excluding Yamana's words, it should be four thousand against nine thousand, well... It's not a big problem...... Li Qing sighed faintly.
β¦
Early the next morning, the Hosoyama coalition army arrived with siege equipment in tow.
They subconsciously thought that Li Qing would still defend the city.
But he didn't want to, Li Qing wanted to fight them head-on!
Hosokawa Katsuyuki saw that there were four thousand armed forces on the opposite side, and his face couldn't help but change slightly, and he said angrily: "Toyohisa, didn't you say that the number of troops is less than two thousand, what's going on?" β
"I, I'm ......" Hosokawa Toyohisa opened his mouth and said stupidly: "I think it's his temporary team, don't worry, at the beginning of the battle, these people who have made up the numbers temporarily will definitely disperse in a hurry." β
"I hope so." Hosokawa Katsuyuki snorted and said, "Go, let Torataro Yamana be the pioneer, and you will personally lead the team to watch." β
Hosokawa Toyohisa knew that he was wrong, so he bowed down and said yes, and walked up to Torataro Yamana, using both soft and hard, and the pie continued, and finally persuaded him to act as a pioneer.
"Kill!"
Hosokawa Toyohisa drew his katana and rushed forward with the samurai of the Yamana clan.
"Scatter!"
Li Qing drank softly.
The prepared forces immediately dispersed, leaving a sunny avenue behind.
Hosokawa Toyohisa was stunned, and said in his heart: Is he crazy?
Immediately, he was overjoyed.
It doesn't matter, no matter what the other party has in mind, as long as this army rushes over and then rushes in the opposite direction, it can make this great god suffer from the enemy.
A great victory is in sight, and the era of the Hosokawa clan has arrived!
