Chapter 41: The Warriors of the Murozu Urakami Family

"Kill" The six people suddenly shouted together, and drew their swords together to kill the side of the Akamatsu army, although the Akamatsu side had a numerical advantage of two people, but at this time it was really a little frightened, seeing that the Urakami family samurai wanted to rush over by himself, and the fierce look, immediately a ashigaru dropped his spear and ran backwards. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info If you run away at this time, the two sides are very close and there are not many people, and if you give your back to the enemy, you can only be killed.

Yamamoto and the others first teamed up to kill the four resisting Akamatsu soldiers, and then chased after the three who escaped, and even lost their weapons. Even Yamamoto himself didn't expect that when the number was not superior, they would kill nine of the opponent's pursuers without damage, which can really be regarded as a miracle. Of course, this was only realized by the mixing of various causes and genera, but in any case, it is the six people of the Urakami side who are alive now.

"Lord Yamamoto, let's go first! I was left alone. A samurai said with a smile.

"How can this be, we said that we would give the young master a decision together, what is it to leave you alone?" Katsujiro Yamamoto was very surprised that he would say that.

"Lord Yamamoto, to be honest, the young master and their movements are very slow, we can only buy more time for the young master if we block the enemy separately, if we stay here together, we are likely to be killed together, how much time can we hinder? We can block the enemy separately, so we can buy more time for the young master! Lord Yamamoto, I've already decided, please take people away quickly, and you can catch up with the young master. ”

"Alright! You, take care of yourself. Katsujiro Yamamoto closed his eyes hard and said with difficulty.

"Lord Yamamoto, be sure to protect the young master, please be sure to avenge the lord, the dead brothers, and me."

"Yes, let's go." Katsujiro Yamamoto said a few cold words with difficulty, and left with the remaining four people.

And the samurai, who volunteered to stay, sat down against a tree next to the road, regained his strength, and after working for such a long time and moving his body, he was indeed a little tired. At the same time, the eyes kept looking to the west, looking in the direction where the pursuers were coming.

The second wave of pursuers soon arrived, almost a dozen men, and this wave was led by a samurai.

Seeing the pursuers of the Akamatsu family from a distance, the broken samurai immediately stood up with a sword, he took a deep breath, to say that it is not afraid is false, although he already knows that he will die here, although he is a voluntary queen, but there will still be that nervous mood. He adjusted himself and stood in the middle of the road, smiling at the Akamatsu soldiers.

Except for the samurai at the front, all of the dozen or so pursuers were peasant soldiers of the Akamatsu family, who had already been killed in the battle of Murozu Castle, and although these peasant soldiers had weapons in their hands, after all, a few days ago, they were all peasants and farming at home. Seeing that this samurai of the Urakami family was actually standing in the middle of the road, and there were several corpses of the samurai of the Urakami family in front of him, all of them were samurai, could it be that this samurai of the Urakami family was killed? Just like the first wave of Akamatsu pursuers, they didn't dare to move forward.

"Don't be afraid, he's just one man." The samurai at the head of the Akamatsu clan shouted loudly, but he himself was a little scared. Three of the several samurai on the ground he knew, all of them were higher than his martial arts, otherwise they wouldn't be Qimoto samurai, and he would be a light head.

The samurai of the Urakami family saw that these dozen people were looking at them with spears, and it seemed that they were afraid of themselves! The smile on his face was even brighter, but there was a more sarcasm in the middle.

For a while, this samurai of the Urakami family stood in the middle of the road, and formed a confrontation with more than a dozen pursuers of the Akamatsu family. One side hopes to buy more time for his companions, and the other side hopes to solve the opponent, but he is not sure about the strength of the other party, and in the end this strange situation is formed. However, this situation is what the Urakami samurai want to see, and if the Akamatsu army does not move, he will not move, just accompany them. This balance of power lasted directly for about three minutes, and at this time, the latter wave of chasing soldiers also came, and it was another group leader of the Akamatsu family with more than a dozen peasant soldiers.

After discussing in a whisper, the two warriors of the Akamatsu clan directed the peasants to disperse and surround the samurai in the center. The Urakami samurai was not worried at all, he was already determined to die anyway, he took the katana and took two steps forward, only to see the peasant soldiers in front of him take two steps back. He looked back at the peasant soldiers of the Akamatsu family behind him, took two steps, and the peasant soldiers behind him took two steps back.

"Bastard, give me a ride, or I'll die." The later samurai, with a fiery temper, brandished his katana and urged the peasants to attack the Urakami samurai.

A peasant soldier had the audacity to stab a spear at the Urakami samurai from behind. The warrior heard the voice behind him, and immediately took a step sideways, and with a twist of his body, he just dodged the spear of the peasant soldier, and slashed the peasant soldier apart with his head, and the peasant soldier's head flew high and landed beside him. The other peasants were so surprised that they retreated.

After a moment of stalemate, the four peasants rushed up from different directions, and the Urakami samurai desperately avoided the three spears, but the last spear was still stuck in his abdomen, and he tried with all his might to see who had killed him, and before he died, he wanted to slash at the farmer.

"Don't be stunned, chase after it." The leading Akamatsu samurai shouted loudly, they are now the closest pursuers of the Akamatsu family to the remnants of the Urakami family, and if they can kill the young master of the Urakami family, they will be prosperous.

This samurai of the Urakami family bought more than twenty minutes for Urakami Kiyomune and them. Because Chengzong finally ran east at full speed with everyone at this time, he ran more in these twenty minutes than in an hour when he first ran out. At least this samurai used his life to achieve the purpose of helping others delay time.

After that, the pursuers of the Akamatsu family met five people, including Katsujiro Yamamoto, and they were all like the first Urakami samurai, blocking the road alone, desperately fighting with the Akamatsu pursuers, so delayed, and finally let the two heirs of the Urakami family escape the tracking.

After the Kuroda family captured Taniguchi Castle, the Musato Kobei took all the prisoners and what they could take away, and after resting for nearly an hour, all the personnel withdrew from Taniguchi Castle, and with a fire, the small town of Taniguchi Castle ended its short history.

Kuroda's army divided into two routes and swept away the forces under the influence of Akamatsu Masahide in Iho County. Because it was a sudden attack in the middle of the night, with the help of the Tongxin people, and there were generally only dozens or hundreds of people in the fortress, most of them were peasants and soldiers. So I cleaned five grates all the way, and it was very easy and there was no big loss.

Compared with the siege, what happens after the battle becomes a tricky job. Each of them is the residence of the local small wealthy family, and their relatives, their belongings, and the wealth around them are all in the town.

As a result, all of these things were cheaper for the Kuroda family, and the Kuroda family got a lot of military rations, armor and other materials, as well as prisoners. After the two armies converged, after a preliminary count, there were more than 300 men, women, old and children, of course, including some peasants and soldiers of the Akamatsu family, 90 undamaged knives, 200 spears, more than 40 pairs of weapons, nearly 2,000 stone of food, a large number of supplies and prisoners, which became the burden of the army to continue the attack. In the end, after Kuroda discussed with everyone, he absolutely could not continue to fight with these things, so it was finally decided that Inoue Yukimasa, the head of the Ashigaru group, would lead a hundred peasant soldiers and escort these things back to Oguchi Castle.

However, after Kodera asked for supplies and prisoners to be sent back to Koguchi Castle, Inoue did not need to turn around, and directly led the army to Himeji Castle, which was temporarily under the command of Kodera Takahisa and garrisoned Himeji Castle.

Kodera felt that Inoue was a wise general, because it was he who first asked Kotera if there would be a war in Himeji Castle, and vaguely asked if the opponent was the Kodera family. In fact, so far, only Kuroda and himself know about the Kuroda family, and as for others to see it, it is estimated that they will not mention it, such as Konishi Ryuza and the whole sect monk, but I didn't expect Inoue to find the problem through the pre-war arrangement. Now that he knows the possible outcome, he might as well let him go to Himeji Castle, or he can help Koji Takahisa.
