Chapter 800: Tanbo Strategy (4)
Maeda Keiji's name is like thunder, although this person's reputation is not as good as the four heavenly kings of the mountains such as the Tianli family before yesterday, but this does not mean that Maeda Keiji is much worse than them, especially this person is good at killing, so Ogino Naomasa can not be afraid of the four heavenly kings of the high mountains, but he has to be afraid of this Maeda Keiji.
"You wait to protect the lord and leave, I will stop this person. Ah......h But before he could finish speaking, he saw Keiji Maeda kill him with a knife. And that's not all, I just heard Maeda Keiji say disdainfully: "What the hell, just this little bit of ability and still want to block Uncle Ben, it's a joke." ”
After speaking, he arrogantly pointed at Ogino with the sword in his hand, and said contemptuously: "Seeing that your command is so unbearable, it is estimated that your martial arts are also commonplace, so Uncle Maeda will give you a chance to leave the whole corpse, and you can cut your own stomach." ”
Even if Ogino Naomasa is no longer good at martial arts, he is also a dignified samurai, he is already over forty years old, and he has never been so insulted when he is so big, so suddenly his bloody nature is stimulated, not only does he not want to run away, but he even plans to fight with Maeda Keiji.
"Hmph, the doll Hugh is going to speak wildly, and the old man wants to see what you rely on to be so rampant." As he spoke, he held the hilt of the sword tightly with both hands, and he was about to fight with Keiji Maeda.
"The lord also needs to focus on the family business, and he must not be guilty, lord." Several samurai pulled up Naomasa Ogino and was about to leave.
When Maeda Keiji saw that someone was trying to sabotage his meritorious service, he couldn't help but be furious, and while ordering the samurai of Hachimoto to find their own targets, he picked up his sword and went on it.
Although Naomasa Ogino is also recognized for his bravery in Tanba, but the opposite side is Keiji Maeda, so how can it be his opponent, the two swords collided. Although the knife in Ogino's hand did not take off, he was also numb from the shock, and when the second knife came, he had not yet eased up, so he could only dodge to the side.
Before the third knife could hit the opponent, Keiji Maeda couldn't help but shout: "I can survive three rounds under Uncle Ben." You also have some skills and can leave your name. ”
"Phew, the old man will kill you with a knife." At this time, Ogino Naomasa had also relieved his strength, and he raised his knife and slashed.
At the same time as the two were fighting, Minoru Ono and the others had also successfully blended into the enemy, but before they could make a move, they heard the shouts of Keiji Maeda not far ahead.
Seeing that he was fighting the enemy against the orders of the lord, he hurriedly led people over.
At this moment, Keiji Maeda has been fighting Naomasa Ogino for four or five rounds, but it is obvious that he will wait for the sword in his hand to fall. Then Ogino Naomasa was sure to die, and at this moment, Ono Minori already felt that he couldn't care about anything else, so he raised the spear in his hand and stabbed it in the arm of Keiji Maeda.
Ogino Naomasa thought that he was going to die this time, so he slowly closed his eyes and waited for the summons of Amaterasu, but what he didn't expect was. I only heard a pop, and I didn't feel any pain in my body. But he heard Tian Qingci screaming in pain in front of him, and then he fell to the ground.
Maeda Keiji was about to scold, but under the pain, he immediately came to his senses, and secretly shouted in his heart that he was lucky, if it weren't for Ono Shiyuki's shot. I'm going to delay the big thing. So he hurriedly covered the wound on his arm, turned around and left, and did not forget the avenue in his mouth: "Lord Ben has been injured, why don't you quickly protect Lord Ben to retreat." ”
Ogino Naomasa didn't expect that he would be able to escape at this time, and he looked at the person who saved him while rejoicing. Although he saw that the other party was just a peasant soldier, he didn't have any contempt, and only heard him speak: "You did a good job this time, the old man decided to recruit you as a retainer, I hope you don't live up to the old man's wishes." After speaking, he didn't even give Ono a chance to speak, so he copied his sword and continued to fight, because he thought that this peasant soldier had no possibility of refusal, and it was the dream of many people to be able to become a samurai, and he was still grateful to him for this identity, and now is not the time to say this, so he is in such a hurry.
And Ono Minori is a little embarrassed at the moment, if he accepts the other party's solicitation, then he is not considered a minister of the Takayama family, but he thought about it, the matter has come to this, if he shirks it, then Ogino Naomasa will definitely be suspicious, if this is the case, then how to complete the task of the main bus substitution, it seems that he should still take it first, if he does not die in the future, and then explain to the lord is not too late.
Although Ogino Naomasa is still rushing to kill, but at this moment he has the idea of retreating, although the battle time is not long, but the other party has recovered from the initial panic, once the other party fully recovers, then with the combat power of his own people, let alone meritorious, it is a little difficult to even get out alive.
Just as he was about to retreat, he suddenly heard someone shout: "The enemy is back, the enemy is back." ”
With this shout, not only Ogino Naomasa, but also the others lost their will to fight, and they wanted to return the same way, but they found that the way back had been taken by the enemy, and if they wanted to escape, they could only retreat in front of the battle.
However, the only thing to be thankful for is that when they withdrew from their main formation, the enemy did not pursue them far before retreating, and the enemy troops coming from front did not entangle them too much, but after the general was killed, they left for their main formation.
Everyone was not puzzled by this, after all, fighting with themselves was nothing compared to the rescue of the main formation.
After this battle, the Hao army lost more than 100 people, and hundreds of people have fled, and now the total number is less than 1,000. Fearing that the enemy would lead their troops to kill them when they saw that the camp was stable, they did not dare to stay or disperse, and fled in the direction of Yagami Castle as Honda Masanshin thought.
"Open the city gate quickly, I am Ogino Naomasa, open the city gate quickly."
Although Hideji Hatano did not appear on the battlefield just now, he received a report from the spies, so he also knew more about the battle of the Hao clan just now, although he didn't find anything false, but as far as his original intention was concerned, he didn't plan to open the city and let these people in.
However, his decision was opposed by all the retainers, only to hear Akai Naomasa say: "The lord must not be like this, now the war has proved that these wealthy families are really coming to help, and they have also contributed a lot, if these people are allowed to fend for themselves at this moment, then in the future, if the family is attacked again, who else dares to come to help, so the subordinates think that these wealthy clans should be allowed to enter the city." ”
"My lord, my subordinates think the same way, and although these wealthy clans have the lowest combat strength, they are not useless, you can let them carry the falling rocks and rolling logs, so that the family can send more ashigaru battles." Kawai also opened his mouth to persuade him.
"My lord, don't hesitate any longer, once the enemy pursues you, it will be too late to open the city by then." Naito Tadayuki couldn't help but say.
"Well, since you all think so, then let these wealthy families into the city, but they must be strictly examined, and if they find spies, then immediately blast them out and leave no one behind." In the end, Hideji Hatano still accepted the advice of his retainers, after all, if his reputation is notorious, he will really be alone in the future.
Although they were allowed to enter the city, but Hatano Hideji was still very wary of them, if it was someone else, then they would definitely leave these troops in the Okada Maru halfway up the mountain, at first Hatano Hideji thought the same, but he thought about it, in case these peasants were not mentally strong enough to open the city gate, then the city would not be able to hold it, so the most central decided to place them in Ninomaru, after all, their job in this battle is to transport falling rocks, and it is most suitable to be stationed in Ninomaru. However, he forgot one thing, that is, although the falling rocks and arrows were stored in Ninomaru, the grain and grass in the city were also in this place.
That night, Ono Minori and others did not take any action, not even connecting the head to speak, according to their observations, the Hatano family is not very trusting of the army they are in, and at this moment there are nearly a thousand enemy troops watching around the army, and their every move cannot escape the eyes of the other party, so let alone open the city gate, although Ono Minori is in a hurry, but there is nothing to be done, his death is small, but if he fails to complete the task of the lord, then there will be a heavy delay of the lord.
It's been three days in a row.,Ono Minoru is already a samurai of the Ogino family.,So you don't have to act as a coolie like a peasant soldier.,And Hatano Hideji didn't let them participate in the war.,So it's still very leisurely all day.,But although it seems to be leisurely.,In fact, he used his identity to understand the situation of the two no pills.。 When I knew that this was the enemy's grain and grass, I immediately had an idea, it was obviously impossible to open the city gate, but if the grain and grass in the city were burned, then the city would be self-defeating. But if he was alone, he would be alone, and I was afraid that the fire would be extinguished by the enemy before it even burned, so he had to act with fifty Samurai Banners.
Thinking of this, he immediately found Ogino Naomasa in his irritability, although after the sneak attack on the enemy's main formation, Hatano Hideji opened the city gate, allowing himself and others to enter the city for refuge, but he was restricted everywhere, he didn't seem to be united with him at all, more like a prisoner under his steps, as long as he left the samurai mansion, then there would always be two Hatano family Ashigaru behind him, this feeling was really not good. Not only is this true to himself, but the situation of several samurai under his command is probably not as good as his own, and he has a samurai mansion to live in, but those samurai under his command actually have to go to squeeze straw mats with the peasants and soldiers, and there is no place to shelter from the wind and rain, although Hatano Hideji did not arrange any work for them, just supervised the work of those peasants and soldiers, but even this is too humiliating to be a samurai.
