Seeing that the ninja army had all entered the city, Wasuka Masakatsu immediately divided them into two teams, one of which was twenty people, who were responsible for attacking the castle tower, and the other team of eighty people, led by Wasuka Masakatsu himself, to the front to support.

After killing the other two Ashigaru on the high turret in the same way inside the stone walls, the two teams of ninjas go their separate ways.

Outside the gate in front of Inuyama Castle, after the clan clan's banner Ashigaru finished shooting, he was about to reload the gunpowder projectile again, Maeda Toshiya felt that something was wrong with the defenders in the city, so he immediately called a halt, and the clan felt bored after the volley just now, so he handed over the command to Maeda Toshiie, and he took 5 ashigaru to the back to enjoy Kiyofuku.

Maeda Toshiya This is also the first time to really command the battle with his own hands, although excited, but he did not dare to be careless, just now he found that on the front wall near the sides, the number of enemy ashigaru began to thin out, even if seven or eight rounds of shooting killed a lot of ashigaru, but it is not so exaggerated.

Moreover, on the front city wall, it is no longer the same as at the beginning, and every ashigaru killed will be replenished immediately, and in his judgment, the enemy should be gathering troops and preparing to go out of the city for a field battle.

Yamauchi Kazutoyo saw Maeda Toshiie's solemn face, and couldn't help asking, "Maeda-sama, why didn't you let Ashigaru shoot?" ”

Seeing that time was pressing, Maeda Toshiie said directly: "It seems that the enemy is going out of the city to fight, so let's make preparations." ”

After Maeda Toshiya finished speaking, Yamauchi Kazutoyo shouted and asked Ashigaru to prepare for the field battle, while constantly looking carefully at the city wall, and suddenly realized that he couldn't help but feel sincere admiration for Maeda Toshiie's delicate thoughts.

After receiving the order, Ashikaru put all the iron cannons on his back, then picked up the childish knife that had just been placed on the ground, held it tightly in his hand, and slowly and systematically retreated backwards. Their main task was not to storm the enemy, but to attract the attention of the enemy troops, and now it seems that their goal has been achieved. So there is no need to fight hard with the enemy.

The clan saw that the banner under his command no longer shot, but began to line up, and also knew that the enemy was probably going out of the city to fight, so he also walked quickly to the front. As he walked, he thought to himself, why didn't Wasuka Masakatsu take action? The huge sound of the iron cannon just now must have alarmed the enemies of Kuroda Castle and Koguchi Castle, if you don't fight quickly, wait for the enemy to come to help, there is no city to defend, and you are attacked from both sides, then your strategy of Inuyama Castle this time is a complete failure, you must take Inuyama Castle as soon as possible, with the help of fortifications, resist the attack of enemy reinforcements.

When the banner under his command had just retreated twenty steps, before the formation was formed, he saw the gate of Inuyama Castle open, and hundreds of light people poured out from it and rushed over directly.

The two sides began to fight each other in short arms, although there were few people on the clan side, but these banners were originally born as bandits, and they had all seen blood, plus they had undergone strict training and were well-equipped, and their combat power was far from being comparable to those peasant soldiers.

After the impact, the clan side already had an advantage, Yamauchi Kazutoyo commanded the ashigaru battle, while Maeda Toshiya rushed left and right, as if entering a no-man's land, and the spear in his hand was drinking the blood of the enemy.

Nakayama Kawasuke saw that the samurai who had just applied for the battle had been taken by the local samurai in gold armor, and seeing that the ashigaru fighting outside the city was about to collapse, he no longer hesitated, drew his sword, and led the rest of Ashigaru to leave the city.

However, at this moment, a samurai beside him shouted, "My lord is not good, the enemy is coming in from behind." ”

After hearing this, Nakayama Kawasuke was shocked, and he couldn't care about the battle outside the city, while leading the samurai around him and more than 20 banners to rush towards the castle tower, he also tried to rely on the solidity of the castle tower to make the last resistance. But before he could run inside the stone wall, three flags rushed out of it. After seeing Nakayama Chuansuke, he said in a panic: "Big... My lord, the castle tower has been occupied by enemy troops. My lord... We..."

Just when Nakayama Kawasuke hesitated slightly, they were surrounded by ninjas pouring out from all directions, Nakayama Kawasuke saw that the general trend had gone and had already made up his mind to repay the Lord with death, only to see him pull out the sword on his waist, and roared with a hideous face: "Everyone, today is the time for us to be loyal to the Lord, kill!" ”

Several other samurai also drew their swords, and the more than 20 bannermen under their command saw that the lord was going to fight to the death, although they were reluctant, but they were helpless, so they had to hold up their spears and circle around the outer city of everyone, ready to resist after the most rear. ,

Seeing that these more than 20 people still wanted to resist, Wasuka Masakatsu couldn't help but feel admiration, and thought that the lord's love was like his life, so he had the heart to capture Nakayama Kawasuke alive. I only heard him tell the ninja army: "Capture the samurai in the middle alive, and kill the rest." ”

As soon as the words were finished, the thirty or forty ninjas standing at the front rushed towards the enemy. Although these flags were stronger than the peasant soldiers, they were the opponents of the heavily armed ninja army, and they were slaughtered by only one of them.

The other two samurai in the middle were already stunned when they saw this, just now they were just impulsive, they would be hot-headed and want to be loyal to the lord, seeing that more than 20 bannermen were all killed in the blink of an eye, they had lost the heart to resist. However, it was already too late, and the ninja army slaughtered the ashigaru without stopping and slaughtered them, and suddenly the two samurai fell in a pool of blood before they could parry.

By this time, the battle outside the castle was also coming to an end, and all but one samurai and more than 50 ashigaru were killed. Even Ashigaru, who did not leave the city and was defending on the city wall, saw the enemy entering from behind the city, and knew that the city was lost, so he took advantage of the chaos outside the city just now, and there was no one left.

Seeing that Inuyama City was breached so quickly, the clan sect felt a little disdainful in his heart, no matter how high and deep your city is, how can you do anything about Lao Tzu. Thinking of this, he immediately led his subordinates to walk into the city with a swagger.

"Yifeng, and left, don't let Ashigaru rest first, go and organize the defense, I'm afraid it won't be long before the enemy's reinforcements arrive."

After Maeda Toshiie and Yamauchi Kazutoyo received the order, as soon as they left, Wasuka Masakatsu and three other ninjas escorted a samurai to the clan and said, "My lord, the castle generation Nakayama Kawasuke has been captured by his subordinates, may I ask the lord how to deal with it." ”

Nakayama Kawasuke? The clan thought about it and made sure that he hadn't heard of this name, since that was the case, there was no need to accept it, but since this person could be appointed by Oda Nobukiyo as the city generation, it means that his status is not low, so it is better to leave it to Nobunaga to deal with.

I only heard the clan said: "Take it down and guard it, and when the lord returns to the army, it will be handed over to the lord to decide." After saying that, he didn't even bother to look at Nakayama Kawasuke, so he waved his hand and asked the ninja to take him down.

The ninja was just about to escort Nakayama Kawasuke away, but after seeing him struggle a few times, he shouted: "The Takayama clan, defeated in the lower battle, and has no face to live in the world again, please allow it to be in the lower seppuku!" ”

"Okay, since you want to die, then Lao Tzu will fulfill you." After speaking, he said to the ninja: "Come on, take him to the back, so as not to splash Lao Tzu's blood." ”

After Nakayama Kawasuke was defeated, the clan couldn't help but think in his heart that this battle lasted half an hour from the beginning of the attack to Nakayama Kawasuke's seppuku, and it took half an hour to capture this fortified city, which should be regarded as a great achievement, and I don't know what Nobunaga can appreciate.
